Welcome to Gaia! ::

On his own that afternoon, Thorgnyr was, once again, down at the beach. The messenger quite liked spending time down there, because the roar of the waves as they hit rocks nearby reminded him of himself. Or at least, the Thunder part of himself, which, in many ways, was what Raiden essentially consisted of.

The dark lion shook out his gray mane, getting rid of a few tiny droplets of water that had sprayed onto him. He had been learning quite a bit of this warrior pride during his time spent here, and found that, as far as mortals went, he rather liked them. They were in many ways the sort of thing Raiden liked, and occasionally he wondered if any of his past lives had been involved with the Stormborn. Imagine, if one of his descendents were around! That would be amusing. And weird, because in his current incarnation the god had little interest in mortals, at least not in that way.

...Well, sure. There had been that little thing with Kazul. Not long ago, really, and he was kind of nervous about what might possibly come of that. But that had been all Thorgnyr, of course. None of the god.

It was unlike Raiden to be distracted, but he had forgotten something. And he just realized it now. Thorgnyr had a mark on his shoulder. The god occasionally regretted having given his alter-ego any real markings, because then he had to remember to replace them when he went under disguise. So far he had not forgotten.

Yet, when he idly looked down, he realized the mark wasn't there. He had not seen, or spoken to anyone that day, and found it unlikely the missing marking had been noticed. That didn't mean it couldn't still happen, though. Because it was such an easy change to make on himself, he only barely thought it before the missing part of his 'disguise' appeared, just where it should have been.

Thorgnyr had a strange ability to make thunder sound on will, a little trick Raiden had used to convince the Stormborn that he was really some godsend. But among the tricks he used to validate his claim, the ability to change his appearance was not one of them.

It hadn't even occurred to the god that someone could have been nearby, and witnessed the change, however insignificant it may appear to him.

The sudden voice caused the god to frown, and turn an ear in the direction of the lioness. Followed by his head. It had yet to occur to him that she may have seen the little swap there, and his main preoccupation was simply the fact that someone was speaking to him. Raiden couldn't recall her, aside from the fact that knowing she was a member of the pride. And evidently remembered him (though, any stormborn at this point knew who he was).

"Really?" He asked, though didn't appear interested. Mortals here talked to him about gods often enough, which he supposed made sense. Thorgnyr would be a lion who had plenty of contact with gods, enough to be blessed by one of the Stormborn's patron deities. "And what was that?" He doubted it would surprise him. Being a god, he knew quite a bit about them. Certainly more than this lioness.

This time, he decided to do it down a dark alley, next to his house. Kai took the puches & the kicks. Tela made one kick to her ribs which sent her flying backwards out of the alley & onto the sidewalk. She was too weak to get up, & she just layed there for a moment. [i]Damn. I really made him mad this time.[/i] She thought as she rolled onto her side & propped herself up on her elbows, then sat up completely.[/color][/quote] Iris was walking past this very dark ally listening to a MP3 player from his last victem, he noticed this unfair beating. Might be he was a vampire but he didn't like when inoccent girls got beated up. He took the one earplug out of the ear and walked into the ally, apperently not fearing what might happen. He poked the man on the shoulder and he cold hearted turned around, Iris instantly gave ham a hard punch to the face, it made him swirl and send him flying throuf the air till a wall stopped him[/quote] [color=blue]Kai's eyes widened. [i]Holy s**t! Tela got his a** kicked![/i] Kai slowly got off the ground, but she fell to her knees & held her left side. [i]Damn it![/i] She lifted her shirt a bit to see a bruise forming & when she lightly rubbed her fingers over it, she heard a crack, & screamed a bit in pain, but bit her lower lip to shut herself up. "Jesus christ! That hurts!"[/color][/quote] Iris quickly moves down on his knees to the girl on the ground "Hey miss are you oki?" Iris makes sure that his heads angle and mouth don't reveal his sharp fangs "Miss... Allow me to help" He hooks her arm around his neck and tries to help her to her feet, and suddenly asks "Do you beleave in magic?"

He wouldn't be intimidated by her. They were, after all, at the beach. It was simple enough to just carry her out to sea, and drop her. This was a foolish mortal, who thought she could get the upper paw against a god. "Even if you had proof, there would be no reason to look away from Thunder." He pointed out. Simply being a god wasn't a crime. In fact, it would likely just give him a larger celebrity status.

The thing that might make Raiden lose favor if they found he was a god, and found out about what he did with Kazul. Messing with the warlord's daughter had hardly been his wisest moment, but it hadn't been entirely his fault. He'd blame her, for most part. And Thorgnyr's compliance. This lioness, of course, had no way to know about that. It would be inconvenient either way. "But since you haven't yet gone out, crying nonsense, I assume you want something." He mused. "So I guess you could just say what it is you want, instead of wasting your time with foolish theatrics. Perhaps I'll give you it, instead of abandoning you out at sea." He curled his tail, and settled it onto his paws.

Sadly, he did. Perhaps if he weren't so irritated that some dumb mortal was manipulating him, he would have wrinkled his nose and cried out an 'EWWWWWW'. It wouldn't be the first time he did it in this incarnation, but Raiden was often still rather childish. Besides, it was a silly request. She wanted his cubs, just for the sake of them being seer? How pointless was that? Most seer couldn't even do anything with their powers.

"Munyu, your son?" He'd keep that in mind for later. "Very well. And you will keep your mouth shut." Despite his thoughts on the whole plan, he sounded perfectly lever as he said it. He'd probably go sulk about it later. "Whatever cubs are born, you must claim are from a rogue." He hardly needed kids in Thorgnyr's name right now, considering he already was at risk of having some on the way. Especially a litter full of seers, lest someone else figure out who he really was. If she claimed it was a rogue, then it simply stood to reason it could have been any random god.

"Should you break your word, however, I will see to it that you, your son, and 'our' cubs will suffer the consequences." He warned. He could make a deal, but he couldn't tolerate more. Threatening his own apparent future offspring seemed dumb, but if that's what this lioness held dear... Well, what else could he threaten?

He stood up and stretched. If Raiden was bothered (and he was), he gave no outward appearance. The god didn't know what she planned to do now, but he would hardly initiate such foolishness.
