4th Spell - [Video, Spam]

[whatthewrackspurt]

[In her room, Luna has stacked up all her furniture in the middle of the room in order to reach the ceiling. She lies on her back on a desk that's tilted precariously on a chair, a globe, three books, and a coat rack. Somehow it all manages to stay upright.

Paint drips into her hair as she paints her ceiling. Faces of people on the Barge are recognizable - people she's met and interacted with, Iris, Bush, Steve, Facilier, MewTwo, and others.

She's not a bad artist, really. It's a lot more fun than the art room, where they expect you not to paint on the walls]

No, I am the God of Mischief.

[Not always the malevolent kind. He had gone a thousand years not causing all that much damage.]

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

That doesn't seem like it should go together. What do thunder and mischief have to do with one another?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

Not very much. I have very little in common with my brother.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Is he older or younger than you?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

He is a little older.

[Just enough to be the heir, whether by blood or otherwise.]

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

I don't have any brothers or sisters, but sometimes I like to imagine what having one would be like. They wouldn't be gods, of course.

What's your brother like?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

Far too boisterous and foolish.

You are better off without any siblings.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

That would lead to the supposition that all siblings are boisterous and foolish.

But those things can change over time, can't they?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

They did not change for a thousand years.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Just because something hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it never will.

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

Oh, there have been recent changes...

[But he trails off and doesn't elaborate.]

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

That's good, then.

It surprises me you're here at all. I didn't think anything could kill a god.

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

[He twitches slightly.]

There are ways. We are not indestructible.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Mmn. I don't think you'd want to live forever anyway.

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

I would have preferred at least a few more thousand.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

That's quite a lot of years compared with humans. What do you do with all of it?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

Yes. My life had only really just begun...

I have many ways of keeping myself amused and occupied. Reading. Learning.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Gods like to read?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

My brother is not much for reading but, yes, I do.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

That's interesting. You picture gods going around helping or smiting people, creating universes, being worshiped.

And you read.

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

[He chuckles.]

Well, it is not all that I do, but it passes the time. I spent much of the last few months reading...

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Why the last few months? Were you on the Barge then?

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

No, I... I was in another sort of prison.

I was given little else to do but read.

[Video]

[whatthewrackspurt]

Mmn.

Maybe you'll find something to do here that you like just as much as reading.

[Video]

[tricksandmischief]

Such as art?
