Mun easily enabled, canon is The Almighty Johnsons, character is Mike/Ullr

[justwonthegame]

Right, so, you've let your friends convince you into this. Now what? You don't have a plan, do you?

No, I didn't think so. Listen: I'm not your type of character at all. Not that I want you to pick up Anders, or especially that bastard, Colin, because frankly? The roleplay world is much better off without them.

Yes, I do know that in good faith I can't leave Axl on his own to be a bloody idiot, especially when Ty will be all wrapped up in himself, where his mun's taking him from, and I know, Ty, but your wife is-- We're all very worried about you, alright? Axl? Don't start with me.

The point is, one day, Loki, God of Being a Supreme Cock, the next day, Ullr, God of the Hunt--who's next, someone from comics? Are you ever going to play someone who isn't a Norse god again?

I think you should rethink this.

Mike! You're here!

... and I'm not a bloody idiot.

[justwonthegame]

Axl. ...I've known you your entire life. You're a good kid, but my assessment stands. And I get it, I mean, when I was your age--besides mum being a tree--but I made poor decisions too.

Which is...what you need me for.

[friggmagnet]

I don't need you to run my life for me, Mike.

[justwonthegame]

[Just...a long exhale and a pointed look with his hands on his hips.]

Alright. I'll leave you to your own devices. I still think I ought to be generally there, though.

[friggmagnet]

Well yeah, it'd be cool if you showed up and everything. But I can look after myself.

Actually, as Odin I should be the one looking after you.

[justwonthegame]

Right, well, as soon as you ascend into being your proper, godly self, we'll see about that. Until then, I'm still your older brother.

It's not just a case of whether or not you can look after yourself, Axl.

[friggmagnet]

Is this about Ty? He seemed alright when I talked to him.

[justwonthegame]

I think Ty will be better for a holiday.

[friggmagnet]

No kidding.

[justwonthegame]

Now what I'd like to know, which I'm sure Family Oracle Olaf...probably wouldn't be able to tell us, is whether or not the whole Odin quest thing still applies when you're away from home. Whether this might be a holiday for you too.

[friggmagnet]

I'm not really feeling the quest so much these days, anyway.

[justwonthegame]

Should we move away from the Volcanic Field, then, possibly?

[allthingsdarkandcold]

The first thing you do is start in on my wife? No "thank you that I'm still here to try to be the dad in the family" first?

[justwonthegame]

We're worried, Ty. Yes, thank you, I'm glad I'm not dead. I'm not quite as happy about what you had to do to make sure that didn't happen. Not when I've seen what you get like.

[allthingsdarkandcold]

I can be numb or I can burn, Mike. I'd rather burn.

And I don't see you offering anything other than worry.

[justwonthegame]

[A pause, and Mike makes a brief face at Ty's theatrics before sighing.]

I know, Ty, and I'm sorry. I don't have anything to offer but worry. Just...try and remember to take care of yourself, alright?

[allthingsdarkandcold]

That's it? No lecture? No concern about the drink, drugs, and contraception?

This is my lucky day.

[justwonthegame]

Would you like a lecture? I can put one together. It would really not be any trouble.

[allthingsdarkandcold]

Can we just pretend you did and then you'll get me a beer?

[justwonthegame]

Suits me just fine.

You will be careful, though. Right?

[allthingsdarkandcold]

Sure, Mike, I'll take care of myself, you just worry about the Mighty Odin. If something happens to me, it's just me, but if something happens to our baby brother....

[justwonthegame]

Oh for fuck's sake, Ty, of course I bloody care what happens to you.

[allthingsdarkandcold]

That's not what I meant. I'm a grown man with a life and a wife; Axl's our baby brother just as much as he's Odin.

[justwonthegame]

Worrying about you isn't mutually exclusive to worrying about Axl. I'm still your big brother too.

[asofwar]

...I like that name for him. Most suiting.
