exsilium | SECOND ⚡ VIDEO

[It seems to be a theme that whenever Thor makes a post he's covered in some kind of grime. At least this time it just looks like dirt and whatever other foresty debris he's picked up after hours spent hunting in the Borderlands.

He's picked up a few more technological skills as well. There's nary a sign of a thumb in the camera, and he picture is centered and focused on Thor's thoughtful expression.]

On Earth it was once customary for people to celebrate the Yule at the midwinter Solstice. They would bring sacrifices to the Gods in the hopes we would hasten the spring and see their children safe through the long winter nights.

[He wipes a hand across his brow, and as the camera shifts it can be seen that there are a few rather large beasts stacked on the ground behind him. The spoils of a hunt well hunted, it seems.]

Few now remember this custom, let alone take part in it's rituals. But there are other festivals which have not yet been forgotten, and most are a reminder that the cold of winter will not last; that the days will grow long and warm and safe once more.

[A pause, and Thor allows a wry smile past his serious expression.] Though 'safe' may be a great deal to hope for on this world.

Whatever festivals you celebrate, whatever Gods you do or do not pray to; I invite you to share this Yule with my brothers and I. We shall provide as best a feast we can with what we have, and you may bring what you wish to contribute towards it.

Good food is made better with company, after all.

None who wish evil on any there are welcome. You may decide if you are included in that or not.

You're going to have an awfully small feast if you're avoiding anyone who wishes evil on everyone else.

That is not your concern.

[Thor does not wish to play ball with you, Lucifer.]

I can't even imagine you would be invited to a feast like that - surely you have wished evil on Loki, here and there? Or on United Earth, for being so terrible and oppressive?

I mean, I suppose it's a matter of scale, right?

[This is Thor's I-don't-give-a-flying-Norse-fuck-what-you-think face.]

[Lucifer holds up his hands helplessly and shrugs. A grin quirks up at the corner of his mouth.]

I'll bring the sacrifices. Not a proper pagan feast without sacrifices.

What boon would you ask of my brothers or I?

I was always told that if you tell a wish, it doesn't come true.

A sacrifice is not a wish, Deceiver.

Semantics, Þórr.

Either way, like any creature, I have requests of my own, things to do and desires and the like. The point stands, though. However, I will offer you this: I promise not to bring harm to the feast guests while they are at the feast and while I am at the feast. I may be many things, but I'm not a liar.

You are above all things a liar, Lucifer. You may not lie by your words, but you yourself are so false that you can only see yourself to be true.

[He pauses.] I do not forbid you from attending, but know that I will be the first to remove you should the need arise.

If by being the only one who understands the truth I be branded a liar, then so be it.

Consider it known.
