[Oh hey it's shakycam time. Though whether it's because the Gear is being held by a rather small creature finding it hard to stabilize the camera or because of the GROUND SHAKING, well, you'll have to decide for yourself.
The tail end of an Onix falls into view, slamming into the ground and causing another jolt in the camera, which pans up to the giant rock snake's equally giant head--all 22 feet of somehow living stone rearing up and staring down at...
Thor. Who's grinning madly, hair wild around his head, bracing himself for...oh shit the Onix is lunging is he not going to move?
Nope. Instead of splatting, or even screaming in terror, Thor's hands meet the Onix's face--he twists and forces the snout to the ground. And then he laughs.]
I have bested you again, my friend, though I fear tis only because you allow it.
[There's some good-natured grumbling from the Onix as Thor rubs one of the ridges above its eyes.]
Perhaps someday I will be able to offer more of a challenge for you.
[The camera falls, landing on its side half-propped up in the grass, as an enthusiastic Pichu wearing a red bandana cape leaps out from behind it, squeaking and attaching itself to the Onix's horn, then a blue paw covers the video before it cuts out.]

Date: 2013-05-04 04:53 am (UTC)No, tis my nature, and that of all Asgardians.
Video
Date: 2013-05-04 04:55 am (UTC)I suppose it is. And what of Calvin? How did you come by that name?
[Conversations with little kids = fun, right?]
[audio]
Date: 2013-05-04 04:57 am (UTC)[...not that grappling a giant monster isn't an every-other-Tuesday occurrence for him.]
Re: [audio]
Date: 2013-05-04 05:35 am (UTC)[Silly Thor, you don't grapple the GIANT monsters, you just punch their heads off.]
May I inquire where you encountered your own beast?

Date: 2013-05-04 05:39 am (UTC)Forever Action! I didn't notice it either ahaha
Date: 2013-05-04 10:43 am (UTC)What you are has been changed, it would be hard to adjust, but maybe look at it not as what you lost but what of your limits have changed. Relearn them and challenge them as you would have before. Not as if this is something to just get used to, but just another challenge to overcome.
[he has no idea if that helps, it's how he's been gong about what he's lost, so he hopes it will help, oh but an idea strikes him, and he smiles]
Would you like to train with me? I've been working on increasing my stamina and strength since arriving. We could spar, even go full on fight. I know it's not a solution, but I won't go easy on you.
sorry about that, RL happened and then tags...didn't for a bit
Date: 2013-05-04 11:13 am (UTC)So you...fight with your Pokémon often? Just directly, like that?
[video]
Date: 2013-05-04 01:10 pm (UTC)Right, battling the forces of evil. That's another standard one. Like what, the antichrist?
[he makes an encouraging gesture] All right, go ahead. Show me some lightning magic.
Re: [video]
Date: 2013-05-04 04:20 pm (UTC)[Oh, would that he could.]
I cannot. Those abilities, along with a great measure of my strength and stamina. Were I in full posession of my abilities, it would be I restraining my strength in this bout.

Date: 2013-05-04 05:14 pm (UTC)[And it's not like many people travel to the Mars colonies in the first place, other than Vagan.]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-04 09:31 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2013-05-04 10:16 pm (UTC)[...pretty sure the giant rock snake just snorted.]
They are more intelligent than mere beasts, are they not? He is capable of informing me when he has had enough.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 01:35 am (UTC)You are way too old for Dungeons and Dragons.
Convenient coincidence there, just happening to not have any proof.
[He still was strong enough not to get crushed by a rocksnake, though...]
s'cool, it's been kicking me about too
Date: 2013-05-05 02:24 pm (UTC)[Thor scratches the Onix's head affectionately.]
The bulk of my team consists of the type they refer to as 'electric', they were not effective.
[Also REALLY SMALL.]
[audio]
Date: 2013-05-05 02:25 pm (UTC)In the area of this realm known as Union Cave.
[Weird name but hey he ain't gonna judge.]

Date: 2013-05-05 02:26 pm (UTC)Video
Date: 2013-05-05 02:28 pm (UTC)I may rank among the strongest of Asgardians, however my people as a whole are far and away stronger than the people of Earth.
[Yes, he's implying there's a whole race of guys like him.]
\o\
Date: 2013-05-05 02:32 pm (UTC)[He's still not used to actually...needing to stop and rest.]
It would be beneficial to both of us. We cannot afford to let our training lapse, after all.
[Not after the Chitauri mess. Hogod. Thor grins.]
Though judging from the reactions I have received to this display thus far, perhaps we should not make it known. I have never been scolded for fighting before.
[Oh Rarity, he still Does Not Get It.]
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 02:33 pm (UTC)[...yep he has totally taken you literally.]
Not a lucky one, mind.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 02:57 pm (UTC)Funny how the magic powers always go away when you look at them too long, or the aliens packed up all the evidence. Or God doesn't like to talk when anybody's listening.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 04:31 pm (UTC)Truly, I do not understand your skepticism. Surely you have seen many strange things since your arrival here. What is one more taken on faith until such time as it can be proved?
[Jane and Darcy took him mostly at his word, and Erik had eventually accepted the truth of things, though admittedly Thor didn't think he truly believed until Sif and the Warriors Three came knocking. Are all Midgardian men so stubborn?]
