Why would someone choose to go grey?

[Because Alice makes people do things they'd never otherwise do. It's a secret super power the gods didn't think to take away.]

May I ask if you've done it, Miss?

[redhourglass]

( this look forever. )

Not purposefully, no.

[madcuriosity]

[She's undeterred.]

Do you believe you ever could on purpose?

[redhourglass]

( sorry, once you've been a brainwashed slave, you don't tend to enjoy anything that feels remotely like it. )

No.

[madcuriosity]

Oh ah, yes I suppose most people wouldn't willingly choose to do it.

[redhourglass]

You'd be surprised, when pushed to their limit, what people will do.

( sure, be vague, natasha. that will make her go away. )

[madcuriosity]

What people will do? What will they do?

[redhourglass]

All sorts of scary things.

[madcuriosity]

Like poison and murder and stabbing? [Sorry Natasha, Alice is talking to a half demon and it's making things scary...]

[redhourglass]

Perhaps. For some people - not for most.

[madcuriosity]

Oh... are those sort of people here?

[redhourglass]

I don't know. What do you think?

( of course she knows. and for the most part, no. but, this is kind of like telling a ghost story to a child. )

[madcuriosity]

I don't know. I've not met any nasty sorts... even the half-demon I spoke to seems really quite nice. Only that nasty Thor but I don't know if he's the sort to... murder and poison people.

[redhourglass]

Thor?

( she quirked an eyebrow. )

The one here? I don't think he's interested in us, to be honest. ( and the one she knew at home seemed a little .. dim for using poison. oh, no, alice, you should worry about the woman you just met. )

[madcuriosity]

Is there some other Thor here? [She's only met the one and she didn't like him in the slightest. And Alice doesn't have any sense to be worried about the woman in front of her.]

I don't think so either, I don't think any of the gods are interested in us beyond bringing us here.

[redhourglass]

Not here. I know one at home. ( and perhaps the gods are more interested in the travelers than they know? Natasha has yet to decide. )

They have to have some interest. We are fighting a war for them.

[madcuriosity]

Oh well, I spoke with Mr. Odin, he's very... well, he's much nicer than Mr. Thor, but I think a cold is nicer than Mr. Thor. Is your Mr. Thor nice?

[redhourglass]

( Mr. Thor? .. When she gets home, she's calling him that, end of story. )

Thor is .. 'nice'. He's not the sharpest tool in the shed, however.

[madcuriosity]

[It's a strange expression but Alice does understand the meaning behind it.]

Is he your friend?

[redhourglass]

( a shrug. )

He is .. an acquaintance. ( does team member sound weird? friend wouldn't be stretching it, but that word is strange for her. )

[madcuriosity]

Oh well, I'm sure your ah, acquaintance Mr. Thor will come here some day or you'll go home.

[redhourglass]

Do you think one day you'll also go home? Just out of the blue?

[madcuriosity]

I don't... know. I've not been here a very long time. I want to go home though. I miss my family. Do you want to go home?

[redhourglass]

I'd like to go on vacation.

( you know, that doesn't really answer her question. )

[madcuriosity]

[Don't think Alice didn't notice, Natasha.]

That isn't what I asked, miss. If you don't want to answer the question it would be politer to say that instead.
