[The feed starts to show a teenage girl staring down at the feed. Her bottom lip is between her teeth, before she lets out a little huff, sending strands of white and brown hair fluttering away from her face.] Okay. [A slight drawl to that, as a gloved hand pushes her hair back behind her ear.] I've seen and heard some crazy things, but Ah gotta admit, this? I think this takes the blue ribbon.

[Not to mention the fact that the faceless maid was a touch- or a lot- creepy.] Ah get what was said. I'm not stupid, but... Well, I mean, it's a bit hard to accept this. That guide- [The tone of her voice really says it all about the guide. But, if what it says is true... It is a lot to take in, and a lot that really doesn't seem right or real.

Of course that leads to a lot of other questions, such as who, and why, and how.] Is it true though? Any of it? Gods, and giants, and powers lost-

[And that part she hesitates on. It's not like she's going to run around touching everyone to see, on some slim chance.] Or, or is this just someone's idea of a stupid joke. [A stupid joke.] 'cause it's not funny, if it is.

[ Do, do, do... Just another morning of browsing the network... ]

[ As the video feed loads, Bobby's head is momentarily turned from the screen of the bracelet, so when the post starts to play, his eyes widen in shock when he hears that all-too-familiar voice. ]

[congealed]

[ She's here. All at once, a whirlwind of conflicting emotions overwhelms him. Joy at seeing her again (he's only been in Asgard for a couple of months, but without her here, it's felt much longer), as well as anxiety (this is a dangerous place, with fickle gods and formidable enemies).

However, he quickly realizes, there's no time to waste. He needs to find her as soon as possible. ]

[ Instantly, he activates his bracelet to respond. ]

Rogue! I know this doesn't make much sense, but what you've heard is true.

I'll explain in a sec. Can you move your bracelet around, so I can see where you're at?

Bobby? [A touch of relief in her voice as she speaks his name, but there is also a hint of confusion.] Not making sense if an understatement.

[And his request is a bit strange, in so far as how would he even know where she was, considering she didn't know where she was. After all, she has no reason to think he's been here longer.

After a moment, she does turn it, before the returns to her face.

She hasn't gone too far from her 'starting' point.] That mean anything to you? 'cause it sure don't to me.

[Oh for god's sake.

Tell him this isn't happening.]

Rogue. You want the good news or the bad news?

[Totally innocent, no reason to suspect foul play here.]

text; hey buddy

[tigers]

That's a good chap. Go on, then, tell her all about how you're terrified of candles.

[John?

She finds her lips pursing as she looks at him. Not she expected to be seeing him anytime soon, given that he's just run off.]

And what news is that, good or bad?

[Why yes, a certain tone in her voice. He had left, after all.]

[occulthymns]

[.... Oh, nice hair.]

Unfortunately, every single shitty thing the maid said has been true so far. The gods are bastards and kidnappers, but I don't think they've lied about that stuff.

It's hard to tell if they're being truthful about every world dying, though.

[Video]

[justonetouch]

So you've seen 'em then?

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

The gods? Yeah, sometimes they use the bracelet network.

[video]

[eggsterminate]

Definitely all true.

The ability to be skeptical dies fairly quickly after a god decides to play a practical joke on you.

[video]

[justonetouch]

And how do you know it's actually a god doing it?

[Yup. Very skeptical.]

[eggsterminate]

Considering I've seen them, spoken to them, and was brought back to life by them, I'm inclined to believe it.

[Alice has never heard such a pretty southern accent... to be fair, she's not really heard a southern accent at all. But that was neither here nor there. She doesn't even know how to place it.]

Oh ah! Yes miss, it's true that there are gods. Not just gods but yes, it would seem people who had powers before Asgard no longer have them. I never had them, certainly, but I know many people who did.

[Video]

[justonetouch]

An' do they ever come back? [If they did... Not that she's exactly sold on them not being there right now.] Powers, I mean.

[Though the whole "you'll die" thing makes it seem like they wouldn't.]

You get a different power as a replacement, although sometimes it may not be the best switch.

[justonetouch]

That means you lost your own?

[And got something worse?

What could be worse than having a killing touch, and what if that's happened to her...]

[bluespacebabe]

It's not a joke. But I think some would find it more reassuring if it was.

[justonetouch]

At least with a joke, you tend to know where you stand.

[bestestfurrend]

It's like everyone else has said, it's not a joke at all! ...and it really wouldn't be very funny if it was. But it's not that bad here, you know! It's like an adventure!

[justonetouch]

Ah get enough adventure at home without having to go look for it.

I'm guessing some of the others filled you in already. [the rather obviously not human girl in the was stretching and popping her neck. She looked like she was in a lab of some sort.]

Got any other questions since you're stuck here with the rest of us?

[Her tone was pretty sympathetic. Really, she didn't feel like being condescending. Rogue was already taking this a lot better than she did her first day.]

Re: Video

[justonetouch]

Only seems to be questions that got no answers left.

[For the most part.

Of course there is how the heck to use her powers, if she needs to. Is it just going to manifest one day again?]
