Standing in the other man's body Logan relished the idea of holding Gungir in his hands. The problem was, he wanted to hold Gungir in his hands. Even if his current body just happened to be better armed then his old one it was inferior in nearly every way. At least it seemed to be to him, and the idea of being forced to live out the rest of his days in the things disgusted him. His original plan still remained though, if he could gain the power of the gods, or find a way to bring Odin back before Loki was freed, then perhaps he could accomplish all of his goals. Make a name for himself, a good name, and prevent Ragnarok from bringing the world to an end.

Stepping up to the orb and the woman in his body who had proclaimed herself Loki's servant he bowed deeply. At least he felt mostly comfortable in the body he was in. If he had wound up in a female body things could have been remarkably awkward, something that would have made completing any goal even more difficult then it already seemed it was going to be.
" My lord Loki, allow me to serve you as well. If things are as they have been laid out for me then I truly have no choose but to assist you. All options seem to lie in that direction, and it seems that you need our help almost as much as we need yours. Although I do have a minor problem with being told to march past a pair of wolves that could probably take a bullet and still rip out my throat. It would be nice if you'd tell us how you expect us to accomplish such an insane task."

As nice as he thought his little speech was it disgusted him that he had even made it. He could speak decently, although it always came out sounding mildly sarcastic, at least to his own ears. Hopefully that hint of sarcasm had not been enough to raise the ire of the insane trickster god who confronted them.

Austin frowned.

Well, Austin frowned and the corners of Keira's lips turned downwards; he wasn't sure if the god was fucking insane, or if he was just pretending to be bat-shit crazy because he thought being not-quite there would endear their unfortunate group to him. Regardless - Austin had this sickening feeling that he wouldn't be able to sleep with straight men in the body of a cute Asian girl. And it unease wasn't even about the body thing -it was about the soul and whether or not it would survive this tripped up experience.

"Okay, Loki," he said appeasingly, holding up Keira's hands in the universal gesture of 'I SURRENDER'. "I really, really, really like breathing - I don't even care who's body I do it in - so-- like, seriously- I don't really have a choice, do I? I'll help, but honest to God-" he paused, realizing that perhaps the phrase 'honest to God' wasn't exactly an intelligent choice of words "-well, honest to... Something- it would really suck if we helped you only to have you kill us."

"Say, Loki..."
Part of her still told her that she was mad asking about something she didn't know whether will even come at her plea- and most likely she would somehow manage to even make things worse than they already were.
"Can we ask from... For whoever we wish to aid us? Since it is unlikely it is all we have to do and not all might be... Very easy to accomplish?"
By messing up words she probably didn't show herself from the smartest side, but she could not help it after saying the words out- it would possibly have been no better when she had just cut off half sentence.

A Snake-king was usually said to look similar to common snake- only two kinds of snakes there were in Estonia either way, one of them being smaller and poisonous, usually gray or slightly brownish, with black zig-zag line running on its back- some rare forms were close to black, the other was poisonless, larger, some even reaching two meters', always very dark, even black, with two yellow splotches either side of its head...
About a snake-king's appearance, only a little was known- they were said be 'crowned' (yet the crown was nothing that could be removed) and times larger than any other snake could ever reach, and that was about all. The tales more spoke of worshiping and their deeds... What troubled her was that it was never told how large a snake-king could get.
Many old notes outside of Estonia spoke of their people worshiping dragons, while the gigantic winged lizards never existed in their mythology... If those 'dragons' were actually the snake-kings, then they were supposedly truly huge...

All snake-kings were poisonous, with no chance to live through the bite what meant instant death, aside from that their bare strength was beyond normal. They could command other, common snakes, as well as most animals by making long hissing sounds- though, that likely didn't count on those who were belonging to other gods. And they could also speak like humans did, in common language, not in the snake-way. And they were also friendly, towards Estonians at least, as they never attacked them...
Helin could only hope that the snake-king, in case one will even turn his head at her words, wouldn't declare her as dinner for whatever reason, such as her looking like the stupid Russian.
A thought can create a world, but only a word written down can ensure its existence.

-When I am physically capable of doing something it doesn't mean I can do it. When I can, it doesn't mean that I should. When I should, it doesn't mean that I must. When I must, it doesn't mean that I will.
-I might not always know where I currently am, but I am never lost. I know in which direction my destination lies.
-There is no faith in knowing. I prefer to know, as only in this way can I be certain in my decisions.
-The more people you ask a question the higher the chance that at least one of them is right.
-Make me walk on walls, don't force me to dance according to others' will.
-I agree that life can be depressing at times. I just choose to ignore it.
-I don't figure over possibilities. I want, I can, I do.

"That made absolutely no sense!" Loki giggled at what Mikhael thought was Helin's - in his body - words, "I like you! You are amusing, saying stuff that doesn't make sense! Seriously, though, you and your friend from a far continent I do not recall having heard of... what is it, Sigyn? America? Didn't some of our followers make it over there some centuries ago? Anyways, the one I put in the English body, are basically asking the same question. And really, do you expect me to work out all your problems for you? It's your job to figure out how to get it. Had it been easy, I'd just send a jotun to get the spear. No, you will need to use some wits! What a funny word, that. Wits, wits, wits! Hehe! So sad I lost mine... maybe I can find my wits somewhere around here if I am released?"
Mikhael felt that he had to sit down, although he realized too late that this body had far shorter legs than his own, so instead of sitting on one of the benches, he fell on his butt - or rather, the gay kid's butt - hard, having a sharp pain shoot all the way up his spine. This triggered a manical laugher from Loki, but despite that and the pain, Mikhael quickly got up and carefully sat down on the bench, rubbing his sore lower back.

"Honest to God? Which one? Because I'm the only god I can see nearby... unless you have another Aesir there with you? Maybe that A-me-ri-can person? That sounds like a cover story... are you an Aesir? No, I thought not," Loki rambled on, "As for disposing of you once this game is over - why would I do that? If I kill you before I am free, you can't very well free me. And once I am free, there is nothing you could do to stop me anyways. You will be... insignificant. I would have no reason to harm you."
It was not exactly the best explanation Mikhael had heard, but he just did not care any more. He just wanted to get out of there and get rid of Loki's annoying voice...
"I need a drink..."

The god didn't seem to- or didn't want to?- get the true meaning of her question. The only good part to that was that she hadn't managed to anger the god in any way, but rather he had somehow found that her manner of speaking was 'amusing'. At least speaking of that part where she managed to mess up words...
Either way,when she wants something to help her, she needs to reach a place a little warmer than the one they were in at the moment. Snakes certainly did sleep through winter-time, and it was likely that the snake-kings did too... Actually, now, when she did think about it, she even remember something about that part of their life... The large caves they had? Anyway, she has to wait either way.
The last bit of what the god said sounded as nothing that would be of their interest. Maybe she would of have been able to see the funnier part of this if she weren't in the middle of it and in someone's else's body, but this remained something which was... Irritating? Rather than anything else.

She turned around to see what was the reason of the god's sudden laughter, half-suspecting that it was only another sign of his madness, in time to see the one who now was Mikhael quickly correcting the mistake of missing the bench. She didn't make too much of a number of it, but only turned her (his) head back to looking at the orb, as Loki was again speaking something about gods, in response to the comment of... The one who had been the one who Mikhael called 'the gay kid'... Austin, was he? Had spilled a little unthinkingly. And now he was in the body of one of the newcomers, whose names she didn't even know. At least they were not going to be killed any time too soon, according to what Loki said- Which she didn't quite believe, given the fact that the world was about to end upon the gods escape from his prison.
Not to mention that there remained the question whether the god still thinks in the same way when the mentioned one time in an hour comes.

"I need a drink..." a remark what was seemingly completely out of place could be heard behind her (him).
She spun around at the sound as if bitten by a snake- temporarily forgetting that her body was not exactly the same it had been before, so the whole movement turned out to be clumsier than it was meant to be.
Now he found a time perfect for mentioning this. Like they would ever think of anything else... Interesting, though, whether his 'new' body would be as fond of vodka as he was... Or the opposite, since his body now was hers, no matter how odd that sounded. Mikhael was at least still a male, so he didn't have half as many reasons to whine...
