[Sixth] Action

[midgardserpent]

Outside 839 Hastings

[Jormungandr doesn't usually check the mail, he doesn't really care. But today there's a package. And it's addressed to him. He picks it up and turns it over in his hands. It doesn't look particularly strange, nor does it weigh very much.

Jormungandr finds himself curious.

So he opens it. It's empty.

But suddenly he feels a whole lot stronger than he did before he opened the package.

He blinks, staring down at his hands.

When he heads back inside he accidentally pulls the door right out of the frame.

...

Oops.]

Around Town

[And now he'll be walking around town late afternoon/evening as he tests his regained strength on various things. Like trees in the park. Or cars parked on the street. He's not trying to show off, really. In fact he's trying not to draw attention to himself. But when you're pulling small trees right out of the ground, roots and all, you're bound to draw at least a little attention to yourself.]

((OOC: So yeah Jormungandr, who is naturally a HUGE ASS SEA MONSTER has regained a small amount of his natural strength. Put that into a human body and you basically get super strength. He's still getting used to it though, so he may be breaking stuff for a couple of days. But hey, he's already way tall. Now he's way strong, too. Best not mess with this guy.))

[He could dodge or duck back or punch Thor again, but instead, with the hand that's holding Thor's fist he pushes Thor back, just as Thor swings his punch and his kick at him.]

[Thor has known nothing like this for centuries. Not since he dropped to one knee under the weight of Old Age in Utgard, not since he was a child and there were still giants in the worlds who could hold him down. It has been so long since anything moved Thor when he did not wish to be moved that he is stunned into brief, shocked silence.

When he speaks it is with contained fury that would make any other being in the realms tremble. It is only greater because he knows that Jormungandr will not.]

Release me. Fight me like a man!

[He cares little if he dies - all that matter is that he not die like this.]

[midgardserpent]

[Jormungandr tilts his head, amused at Thor's rage, and just steps back, his hands clasped behind his back.]

[Thor steps back, opening and closing the fingers of his stinging hand. His nose is still bleeding freely, and dizziness is setting in - it needs to be set and soon, or he'll simply faint in the street and be entirely at Jormungandr's mercy.

The moment Thor knows he is defeated is clear in the way his shoulders drop. The disgust and anger in his face are clear even through two black eyes.]

You are low. You are a worm, and the son of a worm - you are a coward and a liar, a serpent in a man's skin! When I have my hammer again, I swear--!

[midgardserpent]

[Jormungandr rolls his eyes. Really, those were some of the worst insults he'd ever heard, even from Thor. And it wasn't like he wanted to be in human form, and how could someone lie if they didn't speak? But then, Thor was not known for his intelligence, far from it. Jormungandr raises an eyebrow and shrugs.

He can't help what he is, and insulting him for it is stupid.]

I will not forget this.

[Thor glares for a long moment, and then with a low growl turns on his heel and leaves, showing Jormungandr his back. He wipes at his bleeding nose with the back of one hand as he goes, accomplishing absolutely nothing.

Damn the serpent. Thor almost hopes he'll try to kill him while his back is turned. Even a meaningless Mayfield-death would be better than this humiliation.]

[midgardserpent]

[Jormungandr watches him go, a very faint smirk playing at his mouth. He turns and walks away.

That was definitely interesting.]
