[ This was not the entry he wished to make upon the network. As a point of fact, he wished to continue to remain hidden from sight, to only poke and prod where he saw necessary. It was never his intention to reveal his name with his first announcement to this Hel-ish Asgard copy.

Alas, once more Thor has thrown a rather large wrench into his plans.

Of course, Loki could keep quiet on the matter, but... well, he would prefer to relish in the outward delight of being the bearer of bad good bad news. ]

Greetings to you, false Asgard. I shall not keep you long, I simply felt rather compelled to bring you grand tidings.

So it seems that Thor – the man lauded for being worthy of praise and affection – has left. I cannot say as if I truly blame him for leaving, of course. Trading in this false Asgard for the real one is certainly a step up. Though, I suppose that isn't saying much either.

As I did not begin with good riddance, I shall certainly close with the sentiment.

It's okay Loki. You don't have to lash out to hide your true feelings. Losing a brother isn't easy on anyone. We all know you're crying on the inside; this is a safe space for you to express yourself. No one will take any of the aggression personally, I promise.

[tradire]

Ah, Banner. You're breaking our little deal, you know.

[ Because, guy, screw you if you think he's rising to your bait! ]

So is it us you're lying to now or yourself?

Come minstrel, I do so enjoy the song of your heart.

[Darcy isn't happy and this is just icing on the frickin cake that is people leaving her - first Jane, now Thor... And now Loki is taking the opportunity to express his feelings on it.

Well isn't that just amazeballs]

Wow... Seriously? Grand tidings? Couldn't resist, could you?

[tradire]

[ It's the most amazeballs of all of them. ]

Whyever should I? Had it been me, the announcement would have been the same.

[modernmarvel]

It's alright, Antlers. We've all lost someone we care about here. You don't have to put up the big bad act around us. It's alright to cry.

But before you do that, give me some warning. I've got to get that on video. Nat would never believe it otherwise.

[tradire]

Oh do harp on somewhere else. The only tears shed over this would be of joy for I am rid of one annoyance upon the list of many.

Perhaps we'll all be lucky and you will follow suit.

If you're trying to upset Thor's friends, you're going to have to do a lot worse than "sorry, he went home".

[tradire]

And do you not count yourself among them, dear Captain?

[theaccursed]

Shall I find you some token of mourning for your kin? I imagine your kind to be fond of such things. [And it's a jab because - haha - there was that thing with Loki's mom-

But there's more ominous things to allude to.]

The absence of your brother will be sorely missed, I am sure.

[ It would do Malekith well to watch himself. Loki will have no issue in setting him on fire and watching him burn.

So, he's not even going to dignify that first part with a response. ]

Missed by those only as brainless as he.

[cheerleader]

False Asgard? Where's the real one at?

[tradire]

On a bough of Yggdrasil where it always has been.

[On the one hand, he was glad Thor would no longer be around to call him pussy-cat, kitten, feline, and any other variations.

On the other he kind of... did... miss the big jerk.]

Why are you glad?

[Text]

[tradire]

Whyever would I not be? He is nothing but an annoyance.

[thralls]

[Well there's about a million things here that ping him, but Athelstan really isn't sure where to start. And he's still not entirely tech savvy so when the feed kicks on, it finds him standing there for a moment, still considering how to reply.

Finally, though-]

What do you mean, false Asgard?

[tradire]

[ For now, Loki will keep to text. It's rather rare he shows his face via the network -- most aren't really all that worthy. ]

I mean just as I say. This place is a mockery.

[xxii]

False Asgard? I don't think I really catch your drift, here...

[tradire]

This is not the real Asgard. What is so difficult to understand?

[digophelia]

I may be partially inclined to agree, just this once. I suppose you don't remember your last trek here, do you?

[ This one he doesn't recognize and can't stand she seems to know him. He doesn't like when someone else holds the upperhand. Not for the first time it's been brought up he's been here before, but this is different, this is unknown. So, he locks their correspondence. Just in case. ]

I do not. Who are you?

[Perma-text]

[sleight_of_hand]

Wait, I'm confused.

Thor is one of the gods here, right? If he went home, wouldn't he be here?

And how is this a false Asgard? Seems pretty real to me.

[tradire]

Somehow, it is not all that shocking. Mortals are a terribly easy bunch to confuse.

There were two: the useless Thor here and the equally useless Thor from the true realm eternal. The second one, my brother, has returned home - I would imagine - to the real Asgard.

And let me phrase this simply so you can understand. Mortals are not allowed within the realm of Asgard. That is the first clue that this place is an utter mockery.

[kage_senbon]

What's this crap about true Asgard and fake Asgard? Isn't one batch of idiots enough to deal with?

perm-text;

[tradire]

Why not ask the benevolent gods here?

[asofwar]

Should you have nothing wiser to say the next time, keep a shut mouth.

[tradire]

Why is that? Are you not happy your would-be king has returned to his proper place?

[standsonhigh]

[False Asgard? Oh look, it must be that Loki Malekith spoke of. Or rant about. Same thing, right? Either way, he'd heard so many 'fake asgard' speeches to know what universe this one was from.]

How inferior is this one to the actual one? I mean by comparing the Thors alone, the answer is kind of clear but humour me.

[tradire]

[ Considering it's Malekith, yes, that is exactly the same thing. ]

These gods have elected to house mortals within a sacred realm. That alone should speak of their quality.

[theredviper]

You mean to not keep us long yet you present to us excessive words, like a singer.

[text]

[tradire]

And it was your choice to read or not. Is there a point I should care about?

[considered]

A third Loki, then. A wonder this realm can survive three of you without collapsing into itself.

[ honestly, the same can be said about two moriartys but still. ]

text;

[tradire]

Under normal circumstances I would take that as a compliment. Considering the foul beasts here, I take insult.

[grimmig]

Oh! You're the brother!

[sad Thor's gone but you pull off the brilliant syntax thing too Loki pal and our dear departed finely facial haired friend did recommend you so ]

text;

[tradire]

[ Hard to believe anyone would recommend Loki. ]

I am Loki. Nothing more, nothing less.

[Text]

[madcuriosity]

I don't think you should be glad for when he leaves. There are many who are going to miss him.

[tradire]

I hardly care.
