The games we play
For some reason or another, there were mortals from the other teams at their home. Asleif wasn't entirely certain why. It had probably been brought up, likely by Sydney, but when mortals spoke, Asleif tended not to pay very much attention. They did not often have anything very important to say.

She poked idly at the fruit on her plate, and resisted the urge to glare or turn some of the more annoying ones into things. Like the Olympian, for example, who was loudly retelling (or possibly fabricating) some adventure of his in an attempt to chat up one of the women.

Not exactly here idea of a good time.

	"More than somewhat, and it's magic, there's supposed to be a touch of flash, that's the fun in it," he explained. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	This got a small nod. "I hath a... certain appreciate for the theatrical," she said after a moment. "When teleportation is not called for, I hath other, also impressive means of travel." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nodded in approval, theatrical was great. Martin crossed his arms and looked up at her with a slight challenge to his expression. "Okay, prove it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"As thou wish," Asleif said. And then she simply seemed to explode into an unkindess of ravens, they flew about him for a moment, before settling across various perches around them. "Dost thou," the ravens said, speaking with one voice, "consider this proof enough?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Martin smiled at the show, he liked the theatricality of it, he'd give her that. "Hmmm I don't know if that's more impressive. What happens to you if one of the birds gets hit?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2013-11-23 12:34 am UTC (link)
	If birds could give a piercing stare, they were now. "One or two, perhaps as many as four, couldst I lose without much consequence. More... might result in injury. But I art of the line of giants, and the line of Thor and Odin. I wouldst survive." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Piercing bird glares didn't seem to have any effect on the young mage. "As long as they could dodge I guess. Because if they were flying in a group and I shot a magic bolt, I could probably hit four at once," he pondered out loud. "So are you a giant? Is that why you and your family are so tall?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The birds flapped together and reassembled themselves into Asleif, leaving only a few stray feathers on the ground. "I and my brother art part giant, from our grandfather. But we art all of the line of Thor, and we gods are simply larger than mortals." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Like superhero god Thor?" He didn't mention she didn't look much like Thor from the newspapers. And he'd never met Loki so he couldn't at least comment she looked like him. "I didn't know Thor could do magic. So...what else can you do? Show me one! How about an illusion?" Because Marlow did illusions wonderfully. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2013-11-23 01:35 am UTC (link)
	She nodded. "Thor art mine father," Asleif said. She gestured, a quick flick of the wrist, and instantly seemed to split into a circle of Asleif's, surrounding him. "Like this?" They spun around him, faster and faster, until the world seemed replaced by an alien dimension. Asleif herself was nowhere to be seen. "Or this?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He stood in the middle of the circle, his arms crossed and surveying her illusions, clearly someone used to the magic and weirdness with it. "Not the first one, those aren't anything really out of the ordinary, they're like Marlow's illusion selves, I've seen those a bunch of times." It didn't occur to him that she might not like being compared to a teammate she ignored, but Martin tended to use Marlow as a measuring stick for matters of illusions. Just because he didn't have the control to do them, didn't mean he didn't have an eye for them.

"I like your second one better. This is nice. What place is this one from? Or did you make it up?" He chattered pleasantly as he looked around out of interest.

	The dimension faded away, replaced by a monstrous looking dragon. "A little of both," she explained. "Based upon the Burning Galaxies... but embellished a bit as well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-11-23 03:29 am UTC (link)
	Well he didn't see why this lady didn't talk to Marlow more and ignored her. Her illusion selves weren't much different or more impressive. He looked up at the dragon casually and flicked a mystic bolt at it. "I like the dragon though, you should see Marlow's illusions, they're awesome." He couldn't exactly brag about his own illusions, he couldn't do them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thine friend hast... certain skills," Asleif conceded. She banished the illusion after the bolt rendered parts of it asunder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-11-24 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	"Marlow has many skills, her illusions are the best. At least the best I've seen," he said, aiming to correct. "And she's like my sister not friend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2013-11-24 11:14 pm UTC (link)
	Asleif allowed a small nod. "As you say, then," she said diplomatically. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-11-25 01:47 am UTC (link)
	Martin beamed, he'd tell Marlow even her tall dark teammate agreed! "I do say!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2013-11-25 01:57 am UTC (link)
	A small nod again. "I shalt accept thine judgement and knowledge of mortal magics then." (Reply to this)(Parent)
