two [video/action for Route 39 area]
[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.]

[...yep he has totally taken you literally.]
Not a lucky one, mind.
[video]
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]
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?]
[video]
Faith? You're talking to me about faith? That kind of thing is for kids and gullible saps. I'm a cop, Fabio. I believe what I have proof for.
[Or things that fit whatever conclusion he's jumped to.]
[video]
[He does not like the insinuations you're making, that he's a liar, or insane. He's neither--perfectly clear-headed and he can't recall the last time he lied.]
And yet you are unable to think outside your preconceived ideas of what is indeed true, and what is false. I have made the same mistake in the past, and now regret it deeply.
[video]
[Then stop being an insane liar.]
Whatever you're talking about, it can't be as weird as this.
I'm not gonna go believing in magic and elves because somebody from a shampoo commercial says so.
[video]
That is for you to believe.
[He's done arguing for now. Shocking, 'cause normally he'd be all for it.]
