[When the recording starts the bracelet's camera is focused on some kind of aquarium. It isn't completely filled with water and it has quite a few rocks and logs, some of which stick out above the water. On first glance the tank looks empty, but if one looks close they can see a little red claw crab sitting under a log inside.]

Does anyone know what kinds of things crabs do for fun? I'm keeping an eye on this guy for someone else, and I know I've got his food and home down but it looks kind of boring in there. Especially since he's all alone! Do they even make toys for crabs? He looks like he might break stuff with those claws....

Oh! And what kind of information do I need to give out to get a licence? I've never gotten one of these things before, so I'm not sure if I need to bring something or... what, really.

[ This may be slightly confusing, but he's going to nod his head and then say: ] Not at all, only a few days.

[occulthymns]

So you just arrived then, huh? Well, welcome to Asgard! Hopefully you didn't get stuck in a shitty house.

[video]

[rakia]

What house would that be? [ Cocking his head to one side slightly. ]

[video]

[occulthymns]

Hel has a lot of jerks, though some of them are still okay. And Freya's powers aren't the most useful.

[Despite her having a lot of friends in Hel hours and she herself being in Freya.....]

[video]

[rakia]

I see. Then the best houses would be...? [ Just out of curiosity, of course. ]

[video]

[occulthymns]

Hmmm....

Well, Hel does have some really good abilities. So does Thor! And Sigyn, which has some really nice people.

[video]

[rakia]

[ He smiles a little more. ] I'm in none of those houses, but perhaps that's a good thing?

[video]

[occulthymns]

Which house are you in?

[video]

[rakia]

I am in Odin's house, it would seem.

[video]

[occulthymns]

[Oh, that house! Euri claps her hands together.]

That's a good one! The powers there are useful!

[video]

[rakia]

Could you tell me more about them? I'm afraid I really don't know much. [ And he's not been especially good at paying attention when people were talking to him about it initially. He was sort of more interested in looking around. ]

[occulthymns]

You get either fire or ice! There's a guide here a guy named Sam made, it's really helpful.

[Once she finds the link she will fiddle with her bracelet until she manages to send this text file.]

[video]

[rakia]

Oh, how useful. Thank you. [ He seems to think on that for a moment. ] Fire or ice... I wonder which it is.

[video]

[occulthymns]

You should find out. These powers aren't that hard to use.

[video]

[rakia]

And every person who is brought here has them, yes? [ He looks down at his hands for a moment. ]

[video]

[occulthymns]

Correct. I haven't met anyone who hasn't had powers from the Asgard gods.

[video]

[rakia]

When you think about it, that's really very interesting.

[video]

[occulthymns]

That's a nice way of putting it....

[video]

[rakia]

Is there a better way?

[video]

[occulthymns]

Annoying, since some of the powers are shitty.

[video]

[rakia]

In what way, if I can ask? It seems strange to say so. Are there not those who had no power of any kind when they arrived?

[video]

[occulthymns]

Maybe, but there's some just aren't very good. Like in Heimdall, they can take away pain or give energy but at the expense of their own bodies. And energy transfer from Freya requires kissing until you get stronger.

[video]

[rakia]

I see... those are rather unfortunate limitations, yes. But you said, 'until you get stronger?'

[video]

[occulthymns]

Mhmm! You're not just stuck with what you get when you first show up. Energy transfer's a good example! I have it, and when I first got here it would only work if I kissed someone. But I've gotten stronger, so now I only have to touch people for it to work.

[video]

[rakia]

I imagine that would be a relief. [ He'd think. ]
