[WARDEN FILTER]

[A quick, impulsive post as another new arrival settles in.]

We get guns?

Has anyone had to use the guns?

Oh, there's probably going to be a ton of that. [Said, as she realizes as much herself.] There's no history to fall on, so it's gonna seem a lot more viable.

Good you're keeping busy at least, hm? You seem in good spirits about it.

[shiftedshape]

I-- [He hesitates, but no. He won't get into Malekith yet.] Yes, well. Adjusting is giving me plenty to do.

[But. Specifically. What has he been doing? Uh.]

Oh! I fell off as we landed in the last port. Spent the entire thing as a fish-person. That was a strange one. I suppose we ought to warn people that that's a possibility.

[shadowsran]

[It's a hell of a thing she's fighting to imagine, and it brings her closer to a laugh. A grin is cracked, at least.]

What, the overboard bit, or fish people specifically? And what was it like-? I've never heard of them like that, it's always mermaids.

[shiftedshape]

[He stutters a laugh, can't help being amused even at his own expense in this instance.]

Going overboard, obviously. I doubt fish-person will be an option in every port. And no, the opposite of that. I think I had a salmon head. Was about-- [He holds a hand up somewhere below his hip.] --that tall. Mostly normal body but for the head.

[He pauses to think on what the life was like, what he had been able to retain of it, and lets out another slightly exasperated chuckle.]

Even in that form I was something of an outcast from my society. Too obsessed with knives and spears. The others didn't see the appeal.

[shadowsran]

[The description gets a laugh out of her; it's a surreal thing to imagine, him whittled down so small.]

I can't say it sounds as good as being a bat alien, but I'm sure it had its perks. Why the knives and spears?

[shiftedshape]

[Loki summons one of his daggers. Does a few spins with it, very casually.]

Somehow I think that part's just me.

[shadowsran]

[She is very impressed.]

Did much else translate, or is it just daggers all the way down? I'm suddenly wondering if there's some whole chunk of you I haven't paid nearly enough attention to.

[shiftedshape]

[Loki disappears the daggers and shrugs.]

Well, I was as stylish as ever. Very popular and charismatic. Fantastic relationship with my parents. Never made a single mistake. Devastatingly handsome, as fish go.

[Grin.]

I'd say it was pretty accurate.
