Video | Monday evening

[After a day of wandering around the island market and learning a bit about this place, Thor has finally borrowed Kaidan's communicator, since he's not about to try making a call from inside a ship that sails under the water! So here he is, looking somewhere between confident, amiable, and concerned. Maybe concerned is a bit more to the forefront than he would like.]

Greetings! This is Thor Odinson of Asgard, and I was told there are people who know me who can hear this message. Stark? Doctor Banner? Can you hear me? I will keep this device on hand, please feel free to reply to my message later, if you cannot hear it yet.

[And that's that. He fiddles with buttons for a moment, carefully so as not to damage the delicate little thing, and then the feed shuts itself off.]

[He figured since Sigyn could see him, why not Thor? He'll change to text if Thor doesn't see this, of course.]

Seriously? Thor is here as well? Whose next? Loki? Odin? I'd seriously love to be around for that!

[He's not teasing, he thinks this all amazing. They were stuff of legends, really. Though Jack never paid that much attention to it, even if he, too, has a Norse name to call his own.]

Do not encourage the Aesir!

[He frowned a bit at Sigyn]

No need to yell, Sigyn. But seriously, he seems like a nice guy, so I think I'll continue talking to him. Whatever problem you got with him, you take it up with him.

[He may have come to accept being a Guardian, with all its rules and deadlines, but he was known as the Guardian of Fun for a reason. And that to do what he wanted.]

Be wary, Jokul Frosti.

[ She'd hate to see another war. ]

[Urgh, he hated that name. Yeah, it was easier to identify him with, but then he felt like he was being compared to the other.]

I will, I will. Just don't... call me that, anymore. I prefer Jack, remember?

Though I shall honor your request, Jack, I must warn you once more; do not provoke Loki's name.

Why not? Loki's his brother.

Loki attempted to destroy Jotunnheim and conquer Midgard.

Uh, it took me awhile to teach myself to read, so I never did much research on the stories of Norse gods, just enough to know who they were. Wanna tell me what those places are?

Midgard is your realm, Jack. Jotunnheim belongs to the Jotunn, or, as the Aesir know them, Frost Giants.

Oh.

[Well that's. News. But Thor seemed concerned and Wing only had nice things to say about him. Maybe something happened to him.]

Well, I'll keep an eye out. Thor still seems like a nice guy to me.

Understand that ...I speak from history, not emotion.

I get that. But let me make my own judgments, okay?

[He sighed softly.]

Winter Spirits, Ice sprites... they're all 'known' to be dangerous. No one liked me and they never really tried to get to know me. And any time I tried to get near anyone, I was generally met with hostility.

I'd rather not judge by what others tell me.

[Yup, there's a white-haired kid on the screen, for Thor. He offers him a bit of a grin. It's not as cheerful as it might have been before his chat with Sigyn, but hey, Jack seems nice, at least?]

Well, I would not be averse to seeing my brother or father here, but at the moment I am all who has been dropped on this world. Have we met?

[Yes! Scored another! Well, sort of. Since it's, well, Thor. But hey, the more the merrier.]

I was mostly joking around. Even I don't want the Big Four all up in here, even if it'd be nice. This place isn't something I'd want for them to be in.

[He shook his head.]

Nah. But Wing told me about Loki, once. And then Sigyn's here. So Thor isn't too far-fetched for me to believe. I'm Jack Frost. Or, uh, [Thinking a moment. What did the Norse people call him again? He was told this once before when he found out he hadn't been the first Winter Spirit to take on his duties.] Jokul Frosti? Ring any bells?

Jokul Frosti, yes, I know that name!

[Then he pauses, frowns at the screen, and adds,]

Though you look nothing like him. Is he a relative?

[The names are similar, after all. Though possibly similar more in the vein of "svartalf" meaning "dark elf", and the like. Heh.]

I, uh, sort of took his place, you could say. I was never outright told what happened to him, but Winter is a harsh season to control. I think he eventually passed on and without him, they needed a new one.

[He shrugged lightly, twirling his staff before resting it on his shoulders.]

I'm the new Shepherd of Winter. Call me Jack.

Very well. Jack it is. It is a pleasure to meet you, even if it is only through the medium of this device.

[There's some curiosity there, too, so he adds, after politeness is satisfied:]

Do you actually control winter? I only know of the Jotun, who have power over ice and cold, but they do not have power over the season itself.

I could always meet you somewhere if you prefer?

[He nodded.]

I control ice and cold too, but yeah, I help bring in winter. Well, I guess it's more over the weather than the season itself. But what is winter without ice and cold, right?

I am a little far from this Old City of yours for an easy meeting, Jack. A ship left your ports a few weeks ago, and I am traveling with it. We are on an island somewhere across the sea. Though when we return, I would be glad to meet you!

[And everyone. Except possibly the angry Vanir. Yeeeeah.]

Oh, right, I heard about that. I could just fly over but I don't even know where you guys went.

[So it's no biggie, he'll wait. And don't worry, looks like he calmed her down a bit.]

Alright, then. Just lemme know when you return!

It would no doubt take some time, which could be better spent elsewhere. But I will certainly let you know when I return! I imagine it will be difficult to miss, considering how many of us there are.

Was wondering why it seemed quieter around here.

[He laughed, sweeping his arm behind him where the Old City lay.]

[Thor laughs.]

Have we taken all the exciting people in this voyage, then? Or just all the noisy ones?

[He likes Jack. Jack is officially in his cool book.]

{Of course Jack is in the cool book. When is he not? And Santa's Naughty list is totally the cool book.]

A little of both, I think. Can't really be all that quiet with teenagers, now can you?

[Though, he probably didn't count, sadly. On account not many could see him.]
