"Oh my gosh, we're gonna be here all flipping day..." Miles plopped down on the ground and started drawing out letters from A to Z, "This is human language. The letters we use look like these and we take them and use them to make words. Like G,O,A,L, all go together to spell Goal." Miles pointed to each letter in turn before writing out the word itself.

It literally doesn't understand the concept of writing, much less phonetic alphabets.

It waves a tentacle frustratedly at the human wasting time playing in the dirt.

It just gestures to the head again. It really wants to skip the bullshit and get to the brainwave exchange.

"Ok, let's try something else. I'm not giving up that easily," Miles got to work on drawing a rather crude stick drawing of Miki, as evident by the Onigiri drawn above her, and then a squid head for Ceph, "Let's try communicating with pictures. You remember who this person is, right?" He gestured to Miki.

It cocks its head.

"Mmgmguca!"

It whips its Plasma Cannon out and thrusts the barrel towards the picture.

"Ah, so you do recognize her. Good, we're making progress." Miles then drew a bunch of question marks above the drawing.

"Hang on, Miles, it sounds like he's saying Meguca." Nebula finally realized as she examined the picture herself.

It starts charging up the cannon.

"bml."

It realizes its just a picture, and stops the charge.

"I mean... I wouldn't randomly attack an ally." she says. "And, well, blame whoever created them." she replies.

Deut nods.

"Ok, so you obviously hate her cause she's a Meguca, or in this case, Magical Girl," Miles finally started putting the pieces together,"But the question remains..." He drew a bunch of question marks leading off to a picture of a really angry squid face and then back to Miki, hoping that in some way this fella would get what he was asking.

?????????

"Mmgmgmmpblgglmp!"

It points at the picture of Miki, and then steps on it.

"Bmlbd!"

"In that case, I blame his universe's Odin, both for not giving him a different name and for being a big-enough moron to allow that monster to live, let alone run roughshod and unchecked all over any realm he pleases," Thor remarks to Cinke. "I would have words with that old fool..."

He turns back to Deut, then sighs deeply.

"Very well... I suppose I could assist in babysitting these children, even if it will inevitably be a chaotic mess."

"Uh, Miles? I think we may've pushed his berserk button," Nebula commented as she climbed onto his shoulder.

"Alright, here," Miles handed the stick to Ceph, "Try doing what I did. Draw some pictures to help me understand."

It looks at Miles long and hard.

Ceph seems to realize something.

He draws a picture of itself, though its barely recognizable. He draws another one but smaller, and another one that's larger.

He draws a line from the largest to the one representing himself and the 'foot soldier'. It then draws to crude approximations of human faces: One plain, one female and with a gem. The small Ceph is drawn a line to the baseline, while the 'elite' ceph is has its fire drawn towards the Magical Girl.

"Mcbmdmdlmltve."

As Miles watched Ceph draw, he starting putting the pieces together...and started to wish he hadn't as his skin started turning white, "Oh my gosh...you...your kind...you're at war with Magical Girls...and you wanted to exterminate them all..." He backed away from Ceph as the true horror of what he was facing finally sunk in.

"In fairness." she says. "Let me tell you why I disagree."

"Norse Mythology is really bound by fate. His world has to be stricter on that than yours. This Odin cannot kill him because fate must run its course first, so he must do the terrible things he'll accomplish firsthand. It's possible that killing him is beyond even a god such as him and binding him will result in fate... having a mood."

"Also, Loki should be Odin's blood brother, you can blame Laufey, his mother, for giving him such a name. And in fairness, she couldn't know about other universes."

"I'm sure it'll be fine." retort Deut;

"Mmmmlkmlcma."

He gestures to himself, then pantomimes something being 'built', though it isn't quite recognizable as such. He then gestures to the Magical Girl, and makes 'finger guns'.

He then gestures to the 'baseline' cephalopod, and does the same but without the building action, and towards the baseline human.

He then points at the big ceph, and indicates… lines coming out of it at all the other cephs?

"So, you're saying you guys all answer to some sort of Queen, you got foot soldiers whose main purpose is killing things, and you yourself are like a General and your job was to build something important before you got warped here." Nebula tried to interpret.

"Ok, I get all that, but it's time for the biggest question," He spread his arms as if to say "Why" then pointed to the giant Ceph drawing as if to say "you and your people" then made the angry face to say "hate" and finally pointed to the girl with the gem.

It cocks it's head again.

It just repeatedly gestures to the humans, and mimes shooting.

Pointing to the big ceph, it mimes the 'building', then points to itself. It points at the basic ceph and doesn't follow up.

Build. Elite. Shoot Meguca.

Normal Ceph. Shoot humans.

At the last second, it reconsiders one of the symbols. It erases the big Ceph and replaces it with a huge Ceph head outline surrounding both other ceph symbols. It then fills the outline with a few more heads, and connects them with lines.

"No one is truly indestructible, not even this pathetic excuse for a 'Loki'. Fate can be subverted, and if this universe's Odin is so afraid of it, then he's as cowardly as his 'son'."

Thor then blinks in surprise when Cinke reveals Myth!Laufey's gender, his expression one of complete and utter confusion.

"...Mother?! Where I'm from, Laufey was Loki's father! This universe never fails to boggle my mind..."

He takes a moment to compose himself, then turns to Deut.

"You, of all people, had to ask Ain for help caring for these babies. To say nothing of how busy you've been with them."

Miles looked at the picture again, now with a bit more clarity, "War...not just with Meguca...with humans too...all of humanity..." He then took a seat as it finally hit him that he was dealing with a member of a race that was trying to wipe out humanity. Even if this guy hadn't directly killed any humans, he still had the blood of magical girls on his hands.

Nebula, getting frustrated, grabbed a stick using a hand formed from her own mass and drew a crude version of the Earth with humans on it before putting question marks around it. She then tapped the marks before gesturing to Ceph's people as if to say "Why are you attacking humanity?"

Ceph shrugs, and points at the collective of cephs.

"Mbmlbmlmlblmbml."

Super soldiers like Ceph kill Meguca, while foot soldiers massacre humans. Just following orders, pal.

"He's his blood brother though." she says. "And you can ask him, but Fate is an actual entity in that universe, one that shouldn't be messed around with either;"

"Why, yes. She's his mother, and his father is Farbauti."

Deut look away for a moment.

"On second thoughts, you are correct."

"I see...just following orders?" Miles commented as he got the message and stood up, "I guess for someone like you this is the closest thing you've had to freedom in like...ever.." He then drew some question marks before tapping them and pointing to Ceph as if to say "What will you do now?"

He points at the meguca, and squishes it with his toe.

But it then shrugs. It already had a good run against Miki.

"Ccmbmlml?"

"So, you originally just wanted to resume trying to kill your target but you've changed your mind. I guess in that case, I got no quarrel with you...for now anyways..." He then turned to leave only to stop, "I'll let you go on your way now, but here's a bit of advice..."

He pointed to Ceph then to the drawing of Miki and put an X through it then gestured to himself as he slammed his fist into his palm. All of which seemed to say "If you try to hurt her again, I'll personally pulverize you."

He shrugs. Eh, fair enough.

He'll still attack her on sight, though. And any other superbeings he determines as Meguca.

"Mmmlblm?"
