The same thing, that's still me.

[It's only a matter of semantics and titles.]

After all one follows the other.

...that's not at all the same thing. One is a sound and the other is part of an element.

[ She blinks and shakes her head. ] Or -- your world could just be different, which is... [ weird, but probably just 'weird' because it has to do with lightning and lightning sucks ] ...you know, fine.

[It's best not to try and get a straight answer out of Thor for how his lightning works. In the end it boils down to magic and power, the birthright of Asgardian gods. He nods, a picture of reason.]

Most likely. Asgard differs from the other worlds within my own universe, before even thinking about those elsewhere.

[ So she's just going to chalk it up to world differences for now, because that's what makes a lot more sense than the god of thunder and the god of lightning being the same thing. ]

Alright, then. [ ...but now she's a little distracted. ] Have you always been able to control lightning?

[rebuildyourruins]

I've had the ability from a young age, but control of it is something I have only mastered recently. I used to channel it through Mjolnir, my hammer.

[It was only the loss of that weapon that truly awakened Thor to the fact that his power was solely his, and not in need of a focusing tool.]

[watermarks]

You're over 1,500 years old. What does "a young age" even mean to you?

[ Seriously, what was she talking to right now. ]

[rebuildyourruins]

When I was a child? [What else could it mean!] Truthfully I don't remember when I first showed signs of it. I was given my hammer when I came of age, which is when I started using lightning in battle. I didn't do anything like that before then.
