I've been told the one I'm sharing my quarters with is a... troll. His appearance is not that of the trolls that I have seen. They are ugly in nature and more often than not they steal from happy travelers. Most importantly, they hate us. Unless there is deception at hand, he is nothing like one!

What madness is it when one prefers to be a troll? Must I be as a toy to those who claim to be more real than a son of Asgard?

[tl;dr: WHINING.]

Oh, yes. I seek an answer to a request. I would be much happier with Sif sharing my rooms as my roommate. Can anyone tell me if this can be made possible?

It's about half that, and half filling out CYA paperwork.

[shebeworthy]

That does not seem all that bad.

[mindoirsurvivor]

Don't say that until you've seen the paperwork.

[shebeworthy]

In that case, I fear Thor will never be able to apply.

[mindoirsurvivor]

If he can't make it through the application, he wouldn't be able to handle the daily reports, either. But I'll wait and see what he makes of it before I make the call.

[shebeworthy]

I am sure he could, if he wished to. But he is a prince - and much used to getting his way.

[mindoirsurvivor]

I'll let him worry about that. Even if you both get the job, you're likely to be partnered with other people, so come in Monday for the application, and let His Highness take care of himself.

[shebeworthy]

Only Thor and I have trained and fought side by side for at least a century... but if you think it wise for us to find another one, then I understand.

[mindoirsurvivor]

I need my officer to put their duty first. And by their duty, I mean my orders. This is the police department, not a social club. You can't always hang out with your friends. When I need a well-oiled team, I'll be glad to have you watching each other's backs. But in my department, that's my call, not yours.

[shebeworthy]

Understood, sir.

[ Even if she's not particularly pleased about it. ]

((ooc: sob sorry my shepard is alternately a troll and a hardass))

[mindoirsurvivor]

That's what I like to hear.

[ PERFECTLY OKAY. ]

[shebeworthy]

Am I still allowed to yell at him when he is being particularly dumb?

[mindoirsurvivor]

Only after I finish with him.

[shebeworthy]

I suppose that is agreeable.

[brattler]

I'm not dumb!

Disregard what Sif said. I am more than capable of holding true to my duty. Though I know I have occasionally defied the orders of my king and father, but they are only so that I may do what is right and I will stay by those decisions and accept what punishment may come.

[mindoirsurvivor]

I don't care.

I hold my officers to a higher standard of obedience. If you see me making a stupid call, you can and should call me out on it, but if you disobey a direct order you'll be bounced from the police force so quickly you'll think you jumped through a mass relay.

[mindoirsurvivor]

And just so you know, I can see you asking for help on the paperwork in the thread below this.

[brattler]

You can-- [well shit.]

But. There will be times when one you respect makes a wrong decision on an order. What then? Am I to sit by and wait while catastrophe strikes? That, I can and would not do.

[brattler]

You'll have to excuse my friend, Chief Shepard. She knows not what she speaks of. I'm a prince of Asgard and though scholarly duties does favor another more so than I, I am fully capable of doing it.

[shh sif is a liar, don't listen to her.]

[mindoirsurvivor]

Good to know. Come fight the paperwork Monday morning, set up an interview through the new department secretary, and we'll go from there.

[shebeworthy]

Oh are you? Then what do you have to say about all the times in our classes where you wished for me to come to your aid?

[brattler]

Come now, my dearest friend! It would only be fitting for us warriors to be at each others' side and fighting for the safety and protection of others.

So come and aid me once more with these paperwork.

[shebeworthy]

How else are you supposed to prove that you are worthy enough to join this force if you are unable to complete the basic requirements?

[brattler]

.. You're right, Sif. It would be the honorable thing to do.

I will go and finish this task myself tomorrow. I believe it should provide no challenge for an Odinson.

[mindoirsurvivor]

Good call, kid.
