four; video (backdated a few days)

[glaived]

[ The video takes a moment to adjust to what is clearly a beautiful night sky - if anyone thought the milky way was pretty just multiply it by ten and that's the general idea of what it is. There's the clamor of feasting and fighting in the background, but it's distant.

Instead there's Sif, lit by firelight in full armor - her own winged helm and all. ]

Friends of Steven Rogers - Thor [ Pan down, and there's Thor with his own helmed head in her lap, sleeping, before panning back up again. ] and I have waited for him at Valhalla for some time. And it is with mixed emotions that I say we have not yet seen him.

So there is hope yet that somehow, he still lives.

[ There's an oddly warm smile, and then the camera pans up to the stars again before cutting out. ]

You two seem to be familiar.

He fell asleep and I did not have the heart to move him.

AFTER HE WAKES UP

[godofabs]

Why would we not be?

[Darcy's not sure how to feel about this so she's pretty straight-faced right now.]

Does everyone go to Valhalla?

[glaived]

Only those who die bravely and honorably.

AFTER HE WAKES UP

[godofabs]

(yawning and stretching out like a happy sleepy puppy.)

Hmm? Valhalla is the resting place of heroes, like Steve.

[permavideo]

[hasbottombunk]

But no one was able to get to him. I listened til the end....

[glaived]

It is not a fail-safe method of determining if he yet lives, but the hope is still there.

[wormhole]

That's good news. [ look at the sleeping thor. baaaaby ]

(like a puppy, he sits up half asleep:) Jane? I heard Jane.

permavideo; la la la you saw nothing

[glaived]

I feel we are in need of it.

[notmyfirstrodeo]

[...well that's hopeful. Yes. Very hopeful. Means that... this internal monologue redacted due to classified content]

How does time work where you are in relation to where Steve is... was?

[glaived]

I know not the details, but we seem to be in sync with the majority of those from your universe.

[yumadbro]

Wait.


What?

[glaived]

Valhalla. We have neither seen him there or seen him arrive - and it is unlikely that he would go anywhere else.

[mightletyouknowme]

You know Steve?

[glaived]

In passing, yes.

[whitechocolate]

Of course he's still alive... I mean, he has to be. He's Captain America. [Slight wibble going on at the idea of Steve being d-dead.]

The sky's beautiful where you are.

[glaived]

I do not think that changes his mortality at all. But it is hope.

Asgard. The branches of Yggdrasil are closer here than on Midgard, which-- [ waves her hand at the sky by way of explaining. ]

[voice]

[likethetragedy]

I guess we were due for some possibly good news around here. [A beat.] Nice helm.

permavideo replies always whoops;

[glaived]

[ She reaches out to adjust it with a grin. ]

I suppose saying 'they are traditional' is not an acceptable excuse?

[nofondueforyou]

You must be mistaken, I don't see how he could have survived what happened.

[glaived]

I am afraid I do not have the answers for how, but the fact remains that he is not where he should be.

[sexbastian]

As sweet and touching as this is....are you aware that he believed in the Christian god and not the Norse ones?

[glaived]

What does faith have to do with where one will end up?

[video]

[jesus_is_gundam]

Valhalla...

[Its not really a question, but there's enough in his tone that indicates that he might be looking for an explanation of sorts.]

permavideo;

[glaived]

The resting place of those who have died in battle - the honorable and the brave.

[tenminutes]

I watched him. Not everyone ends up in the same afterlife system, unfortunately.

[glaived]

He was a part of our realms - does that not aid him in getting to the right one?
