Display Name: Godzilla
Profile Photo: Happy boi
Notes: None

(At first, it begins simply enough, with Godzilla being small enough to use his phone and hold up a sign in front of the camera.)

Hello, everyone.
I have an important announcement

(He holds the sign up for a few seconds, lowering it and pretending to write more over it, though the lizard is almost vibrating with how much excitement he's visibly holding back. That's why he doesn't hold it back for long. With a deep, somewhat rumbly voice, Godzilla speaks.)

I can speak! I never thought it would happen, but here I am! Magic may always stump me, but I'll never underestimate what it's capable of. And just in case he's paying attention: thank you again, Loki.

It feels strange introducing myself after being here for so long, but I can finally do it myself. Without written words. They call me "Godzilla" back home. Normally, I'm large enough to stand taller than buildings, but one of the first things I received on arrival was a charm to control my size. It makes learning about people much easier when I don't have to worry about stepping on them. I've been learning how to read and write to try and communicate with others, and I don't plan on stopping despite the gift of speech. I know something so freely given can also be freely lost, but something I learn myself will be much harder to take away.

And just in case anyone is worried: no, I don't eat humans. I eat fish.

Yes. You're also why I was able to trust him.

That makes two Lokis I can trust. That's a good sign, if there are any more.

[dothelokimotion]

[ ah. hm. high praise indeed, though it makes him a little uncomfortable. he clears his throat lightly. ]

There are only three of us, thankfully.

[chin_godzilla]

Then the odds are favorable about number three.

Is it normal for Asgardians to have so many different versions of themselves? Or is that exclusive to you?

[dothelokimotion]

I would say it's quite typical for Gods. Our stories are everywhere.

[chin_godzilla]

That makes sense. Gods seem to be very widespread.

I'd wonder if the same applies to me, but "god" is only in the name.

[dothelokimotion]

It's as possible as anything else.

[chin_godzilla]

As possible as granting a lizard the ability of speech.

[dothelokimotion]

You're clearly special.

[chin_godzilla]

Lucky, perhaps. Enough to meet the people that I have. Lucky to befriend them.

Though few creatures my size cared to give humans much of a chance, so there is that.

[dothelokimotion]

Well, I imagine the same can be said about humans.

[chin_godzilla]

That humans are lucky a giant lizard is willing to fight for them instead of against them? I'd hesitate in agreeing, except my adoptive father's work wouldn't exist without me saving him and his friends from this or that.

I think there's a science term for that. When different species can work together for each others' benefit.

[dothelokimotion]

You'll have to look it up. I'm not aware of all the sciences available on the planet.

[chin_godzilla]

One more reason to continue learning to read and write.

Is there an Asgardian term for a bond like that?

[dothelokimotion]

No. At least not to my knowledge.
