[restitui]

... which is how often, exactly?

[meforsaken]

Remind me, how many times have you been deemed worthy and gained the powers of Thor?

[restitui]

I don't even know what any of that means exactly anyway.

[ so 0 ]

[meforsaken]

... Flying's overrated anyhow.

[restitui]

So you WOULDN'T want a flying broom?

[meforsaken]

No! It's stereotypical! And I'm not even a witch!

[restitui]

Now who's the boring one.

[meforsaken]

Still you because cats are cooler than broomsticks. And have historically been associated with magic for much, much, much longer.

[restitui]

Did I give the impression of disliking cats at some point?

[meforsaken]

[And they bring back the giant Cat Thor head.]

Cat Thor! More fun than flying broomsticks!

[restitui]

[ Snorts. ]

Both things can be true.

[meforsaken]

I say thee nay! There is only room for the All-Father and his mighty Mewnir!

[restitui]

You just sound like someone upset they can't fly.

[meforsaken]

[Completely serious:] No, I sound like Cat Thor.

[restitui]

[ Also completely seriously: ] Not enough nyans in your words for that.

[meforsaken]

That's because of the Allmeow, it translates my words to you automatically.

[restitui]

Uh-huh, that just sounds really convenient.`

[meforsaken]

To be fair, a lot of Asgardian powers are just convenient to us and superpowers to humans. This remains true in the Cat Thor universe.

[restitui]

I meant the auto-translated cat noises. Lowkey afraid of a for real Cat Thor universe. I've seen the movie of that play.

[meforsaken]

But why wouldn't the Allmeow function in the same manner as the Allspeak?

It probably exists. I've been to the Alligator Thor universe.

[restitui]

Now I feel like you're just making stuff up to mess with me while simultaneously realizing I've experienced equally weird thingd.

[meforsaken]

I speak truthfully for once! The Loki of that universe lives in my apartment since he's not welcome in his own realm. He's quite cute, really.

[restitui]

[ thinks about it, ]

You're not keeping yourself for a pet, are you?

[meforsaken]

... Not in the traditional sense, no. He's sentient and gets into quite a lot of trouble himself, but.

I do provide for his needs, such as food, clothing, shelter.

[Now they're seriously considering this]

He does hang out with other superhero pets, but it's not like he wears a collar or I take him on walks or anything. I don't even really live in my apartment much these days, the current situation aside.

[restitui]

[ He takes that in and: ]




You are not helping him sound less like a pet.
