[It's the evening after a mighty battle, or perhaps just after a long day. Thor apparently has PLANS.]

My friends, I have made a deal with the Guild of the Diamonds of Fortune. In exchange for the deeds we have done today, tonight we shall have a mighty feast!

Truly Midgard has many...strange things. In all my travels of the nine realms, never have I encountered such a thing as this "Dub-step".

[The time for words is past. Now is the time for facing down an angry thunder god.]

Come, then! One of us shall know Vallhala tonight!

...What exactly is it? [Nine realms, and nothing like it? Ginko's interest is pinged.]

[after_lightning]

It is...it is LIKE music. People treat it as a kind of music.

[sorefeetman]

But it isn't?

[after_lightning]

It's like no music I have heard before. It sounds like this music playing device may be broken.

[The MP3 player he holds up is indeed making some strange noises.]

[sorefeetman]

[Squi...nti....ng...while listening. He starts to comment, but at about a minute and thirty seconds in, he closes his mouth before saying anything, looking

confused.]












Well, it... It is like music. I suppose?

[after_lightning]

I wonder if Heimdal knew of this. He sees many things, but I don't know if he can hear them.

It's nice to see them recognizing our efforts, but that sounds a bit... unusual for them. They don't tend to give things away for free.

Surely the rumors about them are exaggerated.

...Right?

[lifeissuffering]

[Just... this face]

[after_lightning]

I may have made a mistake.

[lifeissuffering]

Oh no... what did you promise them?

[after_lightning]

I didn't promise them anything!

I may have borrowed some money for the feast, though.

[lifeissuffering]

OK that might not be too bad...

Did they mention anything about "interest"?

[after_lightning]

...They may have.

[lifeissuffering]

Did they mention a number?

[after_lightning]

Look as long as we make good on this debt quickly, it shouldn't be a problem.

[lifeissuffering]

...I'll let the rest of the guys know we better find part-time jobs fast.

[after_lightning]

No. Wait.

It is unjust of me to drag my brothers in arms into this. This is my fault, I shall deal with the consequences alone. I ask for no aid.

It's something Midgardians claim to dance to, though I've no idea how they'd actually do such a thing.

[For once, he's as puzzled as you are. Write that down on the calendar, folks, something Thor doesn't get that Loki doesn't get, either.]

[after_lightning]

The only "dance" I could imagine to this noise would be jerking around like you were having an apoplectic fit.

[hates_thunder]

[He quirks an eyebrow.] Astute. I'll give you credit. I daresay that's exactly what they do, given what I've already seen of their excuse for dancing.
