i. There is not mushroom for monsters
[Thor didn't take the job out of necessity, although he really ought to start investing in moving out of his dorm like so many of his friends and family insist he should. He takes the job because he's been so listless lately, so full of restless energy and boredom. He's going stir crazy without real excitement, so it's with pleasure that he aligns himself with a friend, ally or family member and heads into the thick of the jungle with his hammer in his hand.

Thor almost wonders if the promise of beasts had been a trick to lure adrenaline junkies such as himself into a simple, cushy job. It's been a while, he's filled a sack with the glowing mushrooms and he's wondering if they ought to call it a night. He glances around the remaining glow of the jungle while his partner works on gathering mushrooms, almost missing the pair of glowing eyes staring them down in the thick of it.

He gives his partner a gentle smack on the head with his sack of mushrooms, so he can draw attention to the eyes in the distance. When he moves, however, it ceases to be a pair of eyes in the distance and becomes a pair of eyes rapidly approaching. It's a large beast, aggressive from the get go and obviously looking for a fight.

Thor has his hammer at the ready, but he's not sure whether to drop his sack of mushrooms or not. He spares a final glance toward his partner before he throws mjolnir at the beast's antlers, striking it hard and setting it momentarily off course.]


ii. Feed your head, feed your head.
[It's been a long, long evening of pillaging mushrooms and fighting off monsters. Thor has caressed every surface of the jungle. He's tousled in it, rolled on its floors and inhaled its scents. He feels fine, if not a little weary. He needs a drink, and he needs a moment to clear his head.

He finds a relatively safe looking body of water, be it a pond or a river, and he dips his hands in it to drink and wash his face. He stares down at his reflection for a moment, and he swears his reflection winks back at him. Naturally, Thor squints back at himself, only to find his reflection is grinning in return.

The best course of action here is obviously to smack his watery reflection, making his face disappear in vibrant, colourful ripples that seem to twirl and dance like the shapes of a kaleidoscope. Thor smacks the water again, and as it flies to hit his face it seems to shimmer in the moonlight. Like beautiful stars, like watery crystals.

The beauty is beyond Thor's comprehension, and before he knows it, he's weeping softly by the water.

It might be a good time to tap him on the shoulder and ask if he's alright.]


iii. TAVERNFEST
[It's been a while since Thor donned his armor in public. He's become quite comfortable in board shorts and soft, cotton hoodies as of late. He enjoys embracing culture, however, and he's always excited to represent Asgard.

He's delighted to find that the different ales of different taverns are increasing in strength, and he barely needs to tamper with them by adding Asgardian ale to them. As such, he has a good buzz going and he's in a better mood than he's been in for a few weeks now.

He hasn't done this for a long time (to his memory) since he's learned it's something of a faux pas. However, if they're sharing culture here, Thor doesn't feel shame in smashing his mug to the ground after polishing off his drink.]


Another!! [He declares, and after a while, people are starting to catch on and copy him. Maybe he should have taught them another trick.]

iv. TAVERNFEST for Asgardians
[With some badgering from "little" Loki and Thor, they've managed to pull a dour Loki from his skulking and into the festivities. Thor has nabbed a table for all three of them, plus Angela, and he's managed to encourage a steady flow of alcohol and food to come toward them.

It's nice, and it almost feels like home, even if home never had two Lokis and an Angela. Thor feels warm and fuzzy from it all, and it's only a little bit because he's had a lot to drink tonight.]


It took them long enough, but I believe they may finally have my good opinion of their ale.

[Steve took the task in good humor, even if it was a little more mundane than the usual jobs he had on the Guard. With everything generally quiet, though, he's restless and wanting something, so picking mushrooms is a good excuse to explore the jungle at least. He isn't surprised to find Thor on the hunt as well, predictably drawn by the promise of fighting off monsters rather than finding plants. The work goes well either way, and during a break at the end of the job Steve is thankful for the rest. He finds Thor kneeling by the edge of a pond and is about to suggest they head back when he sees the man is actually crying.]

Thor?

[Something is up. Steve reaches out, touching the god's back, concerned by the sudden tears.]

Did something happen?

[When Thor raises his head and turns to look at Steve, the soldier is surprised to see tears streaming down his face. He seems distracted and confused to Steve, half-responding like he's caught in a dream. And then he speaks up, and Steve is the one that's confused.]

What?

[He can't turn to look at his own face, of course, but for a moment he really tries. Then he reaches up to touch himself, squinting at Thor as the situation becomes more surreal.]

I feel fine, Thor. Are you sure you're okay? You look... Did you eat anything weird lately?

[ And that's some irony there. Even Steve can't miss it. He's still worried about Thor, concerned that somehow the god is sick or poisoned (even though he's not sure if Thor can actually be sick), but he can't help coughing on a breath from surprise at the man's response. ]

Now wait just a minute! You can't- [ Steve finds himself trying to grapple his way free of Thor's arms. ] What freezer! We're in the middle of a jungle!
