003 [Video/Action]

[Laura is walking through the now colourful land of Asgard. She looks less like someone who is appreciating the beauty of nature and more like a caged animal pacing.

She raises her communicator to give a panoramic view of a multi-hued area of the streets of Asgard, moving it around to prove her points.]

The gods cannot be relied on to keep their word. They will probably try to hold onto us for insurance.

[Pessimistic? Just a bit. But then, Laura has never been a ray of sunshine. It's not in her nature to see the bright side of life.]

Huh? You don't trust what they're doing?

It's better to think positively... You want to go home, right?

[whatagoodgirl]

There's still the war, too... it hasn't just been bringing colour back for awhile, has it?

[video]

[holmes_fanatic]

It kind of looks that way, huh.

[Video]

[learninghumanity]

No, I do not. I think it would be best not to trust them.

[learninghumanity]

I do. I do not trust the gods to deliver on their promise, though.

[learninghumanity]

I do not know. But I think that we are just useful enough that the gods do not care when they send us home.

[video]

[learninghumanity]

I think it would be best if we all took time to learn things for ourselves. The gods have chosen to withold information from us and they have not kept their word.

The fact that color was returning very gradually and only in certain areas at first suggests that this sudden brightening may not be what it seems. It's not in keeping with the pattern.

Not that I'd rely upon the gods in any case, but first the unnatural fog, and now this? I wonder what it means.

[whatagoodgirl]

It wouldn't surprise me. I stopped trusting them awhile ago, somewhere between the stabbings and the heads exploding.

I think it would be better to find out ourselves. If there was a way to filter messages from the gods, that would be best, but I doubt there is.

[learninghumanity]

At first I thought they were unreliable, but now I think they are dishonest, too.

[burntviolet]

... I want to know what the g-gods have to say about this before holding a-any judgement. I don't t-trust them either...

[Audio]

[learninghumanity]

I would like to start working on finding food sources independent of what the gods provide to us. The less control they have over the necessities, the better.

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

Food sources, like... natural sources?

video;

[magnificat]

My thoughts exactly.

[takebow]

Is that such a problem...? Maybe they'll keep less of us. Only those who wanna stay.

[video]

[holmes_fanatic]

It's common sense -- but it seems a hard concept for some people to grasp.

[Audio]

[learninghumanity]

Yes.

[She counts wild animals amongst those natural sources, though.]

[learninghumanity]

It would be best to plan independently. And not using a network that the gods have access to.

video;

[learninghumanity]

They will keep whoever has been useful to them.

[video]

[learninghumanity]

Some people have not encountered unreliable authority figures.

[video]

[holmes_fanatic]

It's not just the authority figures. This trend of 'I want something to be true -- so I'm going to believe that it is, with absolutely no proof' is a little ... worrying.

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

I guess that's d-doable... the flora of this city c-could offer us something. A-and there's even a lake.

[video]

[learninghumanity]

Some people call it faith. I call it desperation.
