[accidental video]

[flipsalltables]

[The feed comes on as the phone is stepped on, after being left in a jeans pocket and cast aside at some point the previous evening. Thor is alone in his room, having wanted to sleep alone, and he's seated on the edge of his bed in just his boxers, the angle exaggerated from the device being left on the floor. It's dimly lit, everything painted in

[Video]

[Orihime is...still trying to get the hang of her communicator. She's not even aware that it CAN record on accident sometimes, and if she's seeing this video show up, then it must be a subtle request for help...right? But she doesn't know Thor, nor is she a good source of advice when she doesn't know what those troubles are. She CAN, however, provide a cheery distraction. She's very good at that.]

Allcat-chan is so cute!

[And she likes the name. It sounds like the ultimate lord of cat creatures!]

[flipsalltables]

[He smiles to her, nodding a little, and turns the device to show his grouchy old one-eyed cat.]

Cute is rarely a word used to describe him, but he is such. [Menace is usually the one used most.]

[leekspin]

[She laughs, tickled. The grouchy face just makes the cat cuter, in her opinion. And the person she's in love with back home also happens to have a grouchy face. HOW WEIRD.]

Ha ha! He's very cute. His purr sounds like a tiny motorboat!

[She bows slightly.]

Orihime Inoue. Pleased to meet you!

[flipsalltables]

I do not know what a motorboat is. [He laughs lightly.] Is it much different to a normal boat?

[He bows his head to her.]

It is a pleasure. I am Thor, Son of Odin.

[leekspin]

A little! The shape is the same, but there's a box of gears hooked on the back, and when it has fuel, the little propellers at the end spin so fast that they propel the boat through the water at high speeds! And it sounds just like a kitty purr, only louder.

[She'd draw it if she had paper, and for a moment she looks around to see if she has any. Alas! Oh well, she's just happy to hear his name.]

Oh, like the Norwegian god, ne? That's a wonderful name!

[flipsalltables]

That explanation seems simple enough. [Thankfully, he's had enough time around mortals and seen plenty of technology to know what gears, fuel, and propellers are.]

I am the Norse God. [He smirks faintly.] I am the God of Thunder.

[leekspin]

!!!!!!!!

[Give her a few moments to nerd out. Most people probably wouldn't believe Thor. Orihime, however? No doubts. NONE.]

Oh wow! And you're so nice, Thor-sama!

[At least now she knows which formality to use! Well no wonder he wasn't familiar with motorboats, then.]

I've never met a real god before. Thank you for making it such a pleasant experience, ha ha!

[flipsalltables]

[Fortunately, he's actually used to people not believing him, but here more people believe than not.]

I see no reason not to be nice, Orihime Inoue.

[He laughs lightly at that.] There are others here, besides me. My brother, Loki, the God of Mischief, and our friend, Lady Sif, the Goddess of War.

[leekspin]

[She beams. She can think of reasons why all-powerful beings wouldn't be nice, having dealt with a few. But there are also those who ARE nice, so she's glad he's of the nice variety of omnipotence. She lays her fingertips together.]

This city just got a lot more interesting, hee hee!

[To put it lightly.]

I'll have to introduce myself more properly when I see them. I don't want to seem disrespectful! ...But it really is amazing!

[flipsalltables]

[Thor laughs, nodding once. She's certainly a cheerful distraction and he's glad to have that right now.]

Well, Asgardians are interesting people.

[He nods slightly.] I am sure they will not consider you disrespectful. We have put up with a lot worse in our time here.

[leekspin]

[Mission: accomplished!]

Oh yes, they are! Well...I guess I shouldn't speak too soon, but I definitely like talking to you!

[And who would be disrespectful to a god? Not only is it rude, it's just a bad idea all around.]

When I open my bakery, you should come visit. I'm pretty good at making cakes!

[flipsalltables]

[He smiles more.] You have my thanks.

[He nods once to her, glad for the invitation.] I shall bring my friends with me, to try your cakes.

[leekspin]

Yosh! I might even bake one inspired by thunder, ha ha!

[She usually doesn't get too weird with her desserts, but she could probably mix Pop Rocks into the icing, and sandwich the layers with apple jam and whipped cream.]

Do you have a favorite flavor?

[flipsalltables]

[He laughs again.] That sounds like it could be very interesting.

I like many flavours, I do not have a favourite. Strawberries are very nice, though.

[leekspin]

[She grins. That'll be the flavor of cake layers, then. And she's pretty sure she can carve strawberry slices into lightning bolts if she's careful.]

Got it! It might be a while until I can get a shop set up, I don't really know how much it costs to buy a business. But I can make you a sneak preview cake from home!

[Orihime claps her hands together.]

And if you like it, spread the word, ne? If the god of thunder endorses my baking, I couldn't ask for better advertising, ha ha!
