two ❈ video
[The video comes to life in a flourish of black feathers.
There's the caw of a raven, and when the device is adjusted better so that its audience can see the broadcaster, Loki can be seen standing with his arm extended. The aforementioned raven sits on his forearm, head cocked to the side and seeming to look into the feed with something akin to curiosity.
Another ruffle of feathers, and a second raven sits seated on Loki's left shoulder. The sight would be almost comical if not for the fact that there is something oddly imposing about the birds -- large in size, to be certain, but something about their demeanor exhibits a certain cleverness of thought that most ravens would not possess.
Loki smiles. Anyone who has met him before may notice that his hair is a bit longer, but other than that he appears the same. The backdrop is those of the oxygen gardens.]
I've returned to the ship, and yet I've not been gone that long at all, have I? Strange how time is twisted into something incomprehensible in an instance such as this -- but I hardly have a right to complain. Asgard was a reprieve, even in confinement. Svartalfheim was... [He trails off, choosing the right words.] Well. Lacking in a certain glory, but the dark elves were never ones for gilded appearances. I suppose it's a fitting enough battlefield for a glorious death.
I'd like to call it that, at least. Sacrificial. [A twist of his lips, irony escaping his mouth.] Mother would have been proud. Perhaps Odin, as well.
But I digress. [Both ravens then caw loudly, as if on cue.] It seems that despite everything, I've been granted a couple of friends from home. Meet Huginn and Muninn, the King's ravens. Huginn is the one with the annoyed look in his gaze, and Muninn is the one without it. Say hello, the both of you.
[And then (as if also on cue), both birds simply fly off to make their perch in a nearby tree. Loki only laughs, as if this was to be expected.]
Ah. Well. There is always room for improvement, as they say.
[private to mcu!Thor; not really encrypted at all because lol Asgardians encrypting things]
I take it you're still here. In which case I think we may have things we wish to discuss.

[ She wishes it did. ]
I have the gift he gave me and that's it. Doesn't erase my job, though.

A split second later, it's a bright blue bird, her namesake, looking at the camera. ]
video;
A shapeshifter as well. Quite impressive.
[The words "for a mortal" might be implied. Maybe.]

Flapping her wings, just once, Jaye is immediately human once again. ]
Just animals. Turning into people was my version of you's thing for his people.
[ "my version of you" yay words ]
video;
"Just" animals. But one must not underestimate the potential of turning into "just" animals. [He has a feeling he's preaching to the choir here, but he continues.] The possibilities are nearly infinite and just as under appreciated.

[ It's enough to make her practically wriggle in glee; someone who gets it. Of course, she had been fairly certain Loki would. ]
Jaye. [ That's an introduction. ]
video;
Well met. I am Loki, of Asgard. Though I have an inkling that you already knew that.
video;
[ She laughs again, all delight. ]
I've been here for a long time, and you've been here before.
video;
So I have been told. We have spoken before, then?

video;
Well, I do hope I at least gave something of a good first impression.
video;
It was a long time ago. [ Longer, for her, than for the others on this ship. ]

video;
Not second chances -- things will never be the same here like they would have been back home -- but chances.
