01 ✽ video & action for the THOR HOUSE

...bel. Asbel?

[ A young girl around the age of fourteen with purple hair tied up into pigtails appears on the video feed, peering worriedly into the screen. She got the part about the ring that it was some kind of communication device, but how to actually use it was another story. What is this, some kind of Amarcian technology? She managed to at least bring up the holographic screen with a few pokes and record herself. She hasn't a clue that it's recording properly. ]

Where... are you...? Can you hear me?

[ She brings up the letter and map that the maid handed to her when she arrived. She struggles to read it: ]

You have been... cho... to...

[ She trails off into silence, then starts struggling to read it again. Asbel only taught her how to read simple words. ]

You... be...

...

I can't... I can't read it...

"You have been chosen to take part in the Games. May the odds ever be in your favor."

[ Oh, that sounds different from what someone else told her. ]

...That sounds like fun. I like games! What else does the letter say?

[ Well they were wrong Yozora's got it right obviously. ]

They choose a boy and a girl from each of the nine houses to participate each year. Congratulations, I suppose. Which house are you from?

[ This seems fishy...! ]

...Did you get a different letter? I'm staying in the Thor House.

[ What are you talking about? This is totally legit. ]

If I did, I wouldn't be here right now, would I? Thor, I see... Then you might stand a chance. The Games are really brutal, to be honest. I've seen kids your age kill and get killed, you know. They were very bad kids.

A nice lady read my letter. It sounds different from yours. [ And the word "kill" pings her. Oh no, that's so sad! ] Killed? If I protect them all, will no one be killed? I don't want to erase anyone.

If you don't want to kill anyone, that's fine, but what if the others don't think the same? That's no way to assure your safety, you know.

It's fine. I'm from another house, but I'll protect you. [ and make Sophie her slave and wear a maid uniform ]

...I'll talk to them. I have to convince them not to hurt each other.

What house are you in?

[ so naive, so naive... Yozora's next answer would give all her lies away. ] Loki, named after the trickster god of Norse mythology.

I've never heard of him.

[ Or maybe not...? Maybe later down the road. ]

He's not very popular, it's true. But I heard Thor was a strong god.

I get it! That must be why the maid said my power was strength.

...

Then if my power is strength, then is your power tricking people?

[ Damn. ]

You're smart. That's partly correct. While Thor deals with physical strength, Loki grants powers pertaining to the mind.

...

Are you doing mind tricks on me?

No, that's absurd. [ Yes, that's what's happening. ]

...You seem like a suspicious person. Asbel told me not to talk to suspicious people.

Asbel isn't your mother so it should be fine, right?

Asbel can't be a mother. He's a boy.

That's too bad. He's one already.

He's my friend and always does his best to protect everyone.

[ OH NO IT'S THE F-WORD. ]

Friend, is he? Tch, I see. So you're that kind of person...

Huh? What kind of person am I?

Isn't it obvious? A normal.

A normal? [ A normal human is that what you mean... ] No, not really. I look like a normal human, but I'm not.
