Video & Action ⊱ Day 142

[ When the feed begins, it focuses on the face of a young boy, barely that of a teenager. He takes a second to ensure that the phone is recording and, when he's certain it is, he breaks out into a small, pleased grin. ]

Ah! It does indeed function exactly like a Starkphone! Most excellent!

[ Then he tilts his head to the side, considering the phone and everything else along with it. He'd been told he was never to exist again. Total annihilation was required in order to save the lives of billions of people.

And this place? Well, it looks fairly existence-y to him. But he says none of that. Instead, he says this: ]

I've not heard of the lands of Cape Kore. In what realm to they hail? For, you see, I must return to Asgardia with great haste. I assure you, it is a matter of major importance that can not be ignored. So, if you could point me the way home, I would be most grateful.

Although, failing that, the internet would not go amiss. Is there no wi of fi here?

[Balthazar didn't realize there were children here, and he's immediately concerned. Of course, the last time he was concerned for someone on the network, he ended up frightening them, so he's hesitant to interfere this time.

But still. Kid.]

As far as I know, there's no internet here, and unfortunately no one seems too certain where we are in the universe, either. Are you...all right? Anything worse than bored?

I'm not injured, if that's what you're asking.

[ Don't worry, Balthazar. For all that Loki looks like a child, he's really not. He can take care of himself. ]

But I'm afraid it is truly a matter of great importance that I return home. [ Yeah, he's not kidding about that. ] If you do not know where we are, how can we possibly hope to return home?

More or less. Some people would be frightened or angry.

[He definitely doesn't look frightened, though.]

And I suspect that's the point. We've been abducted for some purpose, but our captors haven't shown themselves. Keeping us disoriented may be a better way to trap us than walls or iron bars.

I feel no fear nor anger. Only an urgency to return home, for the lives of a great many people depend on it, and I am certain that being in a different realm will not be an excusable absence.

[ But Loki does pause to give Balthazar's words some thought. ]

Surely if we have been taken, we can return in the same way, yes?
