Wait. Loki... as in the Norse god Loki? The one who gave birth to a horse or something like that?

I don't suppose that's just a clever nickname or call sign, is it?

[ikols]

Why does everyone always mention the horse story? I have done other things! Not like that, but.

Genuinely, yes. God of Mischief, Norse variety. I would type up all my clever nicknames for you to peruse but then we'd be here all night and I'd rather get to know YOU, not my back-catalogue of titles.

[couldkillthedevil]

It's kind of a noteworthy detail.

Ah, of course I wouldn't be that lucky. I'm not really sure why you'd be interested in me, though. There's nothing much to talk about. Homicide detective from LA, mother of one. Pretty much a normal human, for the most part.

[ikols]

Says more about my fans when they fixate on something, if you ask me.

I didn't know I'd be interested in you at all, Chloe, this is wonderful! Your mysterious profile was covering up all these fascinating deets. Have you uprooted any homicides here?

[couldkillthedevil]

"Fans", huh? Someone thinks very highly of themselves.

Not yet. I'm only a recent arrival, for one, and I'm also not actually assigned as a detective here. Yet.

[ikols]

I'm a bit of a celebrity back home, NGL. ;) Part and parcel of being an actual god!

[ Also because of being a supervillain for so long, but ... leaving that part out. ]

Are you angling to get into the police force, then? I know Officer Grayson! He's gorgeous, you should work with him!!
If I ask him to, would you like him to put in a good word on your behalf?

[couldkillthedevil]

Wow. You sound just like someone else I know. You might get along.

I'm actually already on the force as an officer. I haven't had the opportunity to meet Officer Grayson yet, but I wouldn't be opposed to getting to know a new coworker. Besides, he wouldn't be able to put a good word in for me without having seen what I can bring to the table, right?

[ikols]

Someone here or at home?

AHHH yes, I'm sure you're right. But he's a very good man, he's certain to treat you fairly if you deserve it.

[couldkillthedevil]

Both. He's here, but we came from the same place.

All good things to have in a cop. Sounds like you really respect the man.

[ikols]

Then I hope we get to find out! My brother is here, sort of, if you'd like to meet Thor.

Grayson is kinder than most.

[couldkillthedevil]

Thor. Right. He's here too. Of course he is. Why not just bring all the gods, demons and Devils and put them in the same city?

Is he someone you knew from home, or met here?

[ikols]

There's actually a place where we all hang out. It's Omnipotence City, the nexus of all gods built four billion years ago by the first of the Elder gods as a place of divine fellowship and worship. You can find the heaven of heavens in the centre of infinity, home to the parliament of pantheons and the high holy court.
It's got a GREAT bar.

I met Grayson here, he grew on me like a pretty weed over breakfast.

[couldkillthedevil]

...Why do I get the sense that you're screwing with me now?

Interesting turn of phrase. Sounds like you like to make friends wherever you go, if your general disposition is anything to go by.

[ikols]

On my brother's bull-necked life, it's true.

I do! :) I had to leave mine behind when I came here, but she wouldn't want me to be antisocial.

[couldkillthedevil]

Right. And what exactly do gods do when they "hang out" together? Crack open a cold one? Watch the game? Have really weird parties with tons of strippers dressed like nuns?

[She knows one supernatural being who does that, anyway.]

Ah. She, huh? I bet your friend would be happy to see your progress.

[ikols]

Haven't been to the OC lately but as for Asgardia, yeah. Pretty much. Fewer strippers dressed as nuns and more Light Elves from Alfheim.

Verity Willis. If you hear about her turning up here, could you let me know?

[couldkillthedevil]

"Light Elves"?

Verity Willis. Got it. I'll keep an eye out for her. Any appearance markers I should be looking out for in particular? Any distinguishing features?

[Her next reply is delayed.]

If you see a little girl, about 8-years old with dark hair and brown eyes and full of energy, mind doing the same for me?

[ikols]

Elves of Light.

Verity is 5'8, with pink/purple/red hair, glasses, tattoo sleeves of fairies and flowers, and she looks permanently impatient.

What's the little girl's name so I don't go around accidentally abducting children off the sidewalk and bringing them to you?

[couldkillthedevil]

Thanks. That was very informative.

I'd be able to identify her pretty easily, if by nothing else than the tattoos and hair. If I hear or see anything, I'll let you know.

Her name is Beatrice, but she goes by Trixie. Not so sure she'd tell you, though. We've had extensive talks about how not to talk to strangers. Either way, don't abduct any children. I'd have to arrest you.

[ikols]

I don't abduct children, I had one once.

[ All the reasoning he needs, apparently, even if he doesn't quite mean it in the way it might sound. Loki leaves that statement there. ]

How about if I meet Trixie, I FaceTime you and she can chat to you directly? Good plan?

[couldkillthedevil]

Once?

[She wonders if the question is overstepping. The last thing she wants to do is bring up painful memories, if this guy has lost a child.]

Good with me. Thanks, Loki. I have to ask, though - what makes a god feel 'displaced' enough to get sent here? Call me curious.

[ikols]

He died.

I was kicked out by my mom.

[ Both answers are simplified as much as possible for Chloe's benefit and to save Loki's pride, not wanting to get into gruesome details during a first meeting. ]

[couldkillthedevil]

[Right, well, she was certainly more than willing to let the subjects drop for his benefit. The heavy subject matter certainly was not what she intended, either.]

Ah. I'm sorry. To both of those.

And what are you doing here now? Work-wise, I mean. I'm assuming they assigned you somewhere.

[ikols]

My larger purview is Chaos. The folks here didn't know what to do with me. :)
I help out the perimeter guards and accompany people on quests into the jungle if they need a heavy-hitter of the sorcerer kind. I'm like Indiana Jones, but magic and manscaped.

[couldkillthedevil]

[He wouldn't be able to see it, but that got a snort out of her. And maybe more than a little interest.]

Magic, huh? What kind of magic?
