1. 'cause we are living in a material world a party held in the parliament, open to all. feel free to use in your own prompts
[ Life's hard when everything's been handed to you on a silver platter and suddenly this one single thing isn't.
Thor's father (who didn't get him into the Cardinals, why would you even say that, Thor got in all by himself!!) is hosting a dinner party and Thor has to be there instead of literally anywhere else more exciting. He doesn't try to hide it, spending most of the evening slouched in his chair at the table, or staring glassy-eyed at the door.
Most of the Cardinals are old and boring, after all. Thor doesn't give a shit about nonsense like maintaining alliances or being seen to be worthwhile patrons for the lower classes looking to rise. He just wants to do what he wants and have fun.
But every once in a while inspiration strikes and he'll start up a conversation with whoever's nearby: ]
The Quarry had better not have some piss-poor theme this time. I still remember two rounds ago I just about fell asleep with how uninterested I was in the thing. It felt old and stale. The only exciting part was when that one man ripped his own arm off to use as a weapon.
[ or, if you're someone he actually likes-- ] Can you believe my father had the audacity to threaten to cut my allowance if I didn't stay he whole night? He's so old and out of touch, I hope someone poisons him.
[ and to any handsome young men or women he'll turn on the charm ] You're far too lovely to be in a dull place like this. What do you say we leave and find somewhere a little more intimate to talk?

[ Sure, Thor uses his powers to help maintain the atmosphere in the aviary. He helps water the crops, keep the humidity levels in check, purify the air. It's a good look for the family, he keeps hearing.
....but when he's not otherwise busy, he enjoys heading down to the lower areas of the city to find other ways to use his atmospheric powers. Making it rain on a shopkeeper's stall and ruining all their goods is a particular favourite of his, as is turning puddles to ice and watching people skid about on them.
But today he's picking passers-by at random and using his power to remove the air from the space around their heads until they pass out.
Join him in his fun? Find some way to stop him? Or are you the unfortunate one he's picked on? ]
