   Maybe someone else saw the exact same shiny thing you did at the exact same moment! However shall this be resolved? Remember: blood is extremely hard to scrub off of turtleshell!
3. Hey, I Just Met You, and This is Crazy...
   First impressions are always the most important, right?
4. WILDCARD!
   Go nuts. Suddenly your character is fighting dragons! Good God, they've found the Millennium Falcon drifting in the ocean! Do you really feel the need to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Please note, Wildcard options are also what you can choose to do if you aren't yet comfortable in the Tu Shanshu setting and would prefer a more 'dear-mun' esque experience. Please specify in your post!

[ Equal struggle on his side, as Loki just barely manages to keep himself from throwing a knife or seven. Instead he scowls, temper only just in check. ]

You will never understand. None of you ever will, were I even to shout it to all the Nine. And you least of all.

[courtedwar]

[Thor has to step away because holy odin, Loki, there's no need to throw knives while you're talking like that.]

Are you so ready to throw away all of our childhood? Did it mean so little to you that you will eagerly take any opportunity to cut the bonds of family and brotherhood?

[liugan]

[ It's tempting. He keeps his knives at bay for now, but his fingers are twitching with the urge to grasp the hilt and just start flinging. ]

Little more than memory. Glimpses into a past best forgotten. Waste of space.

[courtedwar]

[That may or may not be a distant roll of thunder.

Thor's anger has rendered him nearly wordless with rage. That he has no one to express his rage against only makes him angrier.]

I do not believe, brother, that I am the only one lying to himself.

[liugan]

[ The thunder booming in the distance has him on edge, but he doesn't back down. If there's one thing Loki lives for, it's to push Thor to the brink, and it's too late to back down now. ]

But you admit to it all the same.

[courtedwar]

[He growls- that is not what he meant.]

I will not give up the hope of seeing our family reconciled.

[liugan]

[ Loki just sighs, turning around and rolling his eyes. ]

As stubborn as you ever have been.

[courtedwar]

[Don't turn your back on him-]

I have never claimed to be anything other than what I am.

[liugan]

[ Oh yeah? Well this here? This is his back. It's gorgeous. He's being generous and giving Thor plenty of opportunity to stare. ]

A bit of a stretch, that. But- stubborn, yes, without a doubt.

[courtedwar]

[Nope. Thor likes the face better. So here he is grabbing your shoulder to turn you to face him.]

And you have ever been full of guile, with ten plans hidden in reserve- we are neither of us perfect sons or princes. But that has never troubled you in the past.

[liugan]

[ Well since that only serves to infuriate Loki further, do enjoy having your hand pushed off. ]

You claim to care so much, yet you truly know so little about me.
