[When the feed turns on Loki is obviously sitting on his bed, looking intently at whoever is listening. The message he has for everyone is of great importance after all. Finally he opens his mouth, voice firm.]

Land of Luceti! There is something that has come to my attention and I see it as my duty to enlighten you about this, yes?

[He leans closer to the screen because this is a most serious matter, everyone.]

I shall tell you my name and then I shall explain you what usually follows.

My name is Loki...

[He pulls a face and when he continues his voice is higher as if he is mimicing a woman.]

Oh my! Your name is Loki! Shall I tell you about this other Loki who is also most definitely Loki?

[After that Loki clears his throat.]

Land of Luceti, I am very aware of my older self's presence, you see? It pains me to see how everyone wastes their time on pointing that out to me every time I mention my name.

[He smiles a broad and very, very nice smile.]

If there are any questions, please let me know. I am very fond of answering questions, yes?

[That is a lie.]

[Later that day Loki heads out to the forest to do some exploring. He still hopes to find his way back to Asgard, even though his opinion about this village and some of its inhabitants is leaning towards a more positive one.

He plans to go more in the direction of those mountains when something gray, firebreathing and extremely foulmouthed catches his attention. Actually, he is very ~~pleasantly~~ surprised.]

By Odin's empty eyesocket! Thori!

[Loki turns away from the small path he has been following into the bushes to fetch his beloved dog and scratch it between its ears. After that he lifts the dog up and holds it in his arms.

The dog lets its disapproval known by letting out an impressive amount of profanities. Loki merely shakes his head.]

Hush, Thori, you are a good dog, remember?

[Loki has left this letter for Asch to read. Neatly typed on a typewriter.]

To Asch the Bloody,

I am very delighted that I got the honour to write a man whose last name is "The Bloody". It implies that one is a bloodthirsty murderer who likes to end the lives of his victims in a most bloody way.

Are you fond of bloody murder, Asch the Bloody? I find it rather gross. After all, bloodstains are quite difficult to remove from one's clothing. And it is unnecessary messy.

Do enlighten me about your bloody adventures, Asch the Bloody. I am most interested!

Well, there is the catch, he is not my twin, you see.

Oh, this is true.

Maybe I should have him answer this then. Technically, I'm older than him now by a bit so perhaps he'd be better suited to answer.

I am fine with that, yet I do not understand how your age makes it unable for you to answer.

I just thought perhaps you'd want the perspective of someone who is having a more similar problem.

But isn't having two of you fun sometimes? You're definitely guaranteed to get along at least a little bit.

That sounds like a very good idea, stranger.

My older self excels at making tea and asking questions. I do not like answering questions.

I'll see if I can't get him here. And pardon me for being so late in introducing myself when you started your entry that way. My name is Okita Souji. [And now you know both of their names!!

Also, Loki, you just contradicted yourself there, buddy. Souji thinks for a moment.]

Do you enjoy asking them then?

I do not take offence, Okita Souji.

[Oh, Loki knows that, but he is most willing to explain.]

Ah, the situation is that we are both not willing to answer eachother's questions. And that while we are fond of asking them and get the answers we need.

[So he is not answering your question and in the meanwhile he does!]

Oh~ I see. Well, asking your older self questions could be a little odd, I suppose.

Sort of like reading the latter half of a story before reading the middle.

It is not odd. After all, I am not unfamiliar with the presence of my older self.

That is an excellent deduction.

So you often talk to your future self about such things?

[Loki shakes his head at this question before he answers it.]

I am not very fond of questions but I will indulge you this once, yes?

If I talk to my older self I do it because of the tea he makes. I do not wish to dwell on the past as he does.

[he laughs a little]

I apologize, it's in my nature to ask questions.

If you enjoy tea, the shop above the Welcome Center has a wonderful selection. I would brew some for you, but I'm only ever there after midnight and that's a strange time to drink tea for most people.

I would not mind drinking tea with you, after all, meeting new people is a way to form friendships and bonds that are most unbreakable.

And it gives me an excellent opportunity to tell you about the wonders of the world of online and other exciting phenomenons.

I would like to learn about those actually. I keep hearing about them, but it is always from someone a hundred years or more after me.

Then you have come to the right person!

[Loki understands the internet fully and completely.]

The world of online can be hard to understand when you are very, very old.

[this is going to end in tears isn't it....]

I suppose I am very, very old to some people. [he laughs] I'll try to be a fast learner, if you're willing to teach.

[Not at all, Loki is an expert on the internet.]

But very old people also need to know about the vast amount of entertainment the world of online brings to one of the Nine Realms, yes?

[He is excited. The internet is his favorite subject to talk about after all.]

Of course. I shall lecture you properly

[oooh, teach him your internet trolling ways so he can have more fun with the villagers *w* ]

Yes, I suppose we do. Until coming here, I did not know that books could show people's faces or that we could communicate over such a large distance. It's such a fun tool.

[Lecture away, my friend.]

[Loki would be interested about Souji's interpretation of 'fun']

Well, the world of online is similar to that concept.

The one of communication that is.

[trolling. everyone.]

Then the book network is the internet?

[Excellent choice.]

Aye. It is a toned-down version of the internet. We do not have access to cats of lol, tumblr-scribe, face books and faces of rages here.
