[ It's been a little while now, since Floki arrived in this world. He's had a lot to deal with, emotionally when it comes to the Gods here. Believing that any interaction, involvement or acknowledgement of them is a direct insult to his Gods, the real Gods!
It's also taken him a while to get used to the communication devices. Floki is fluent in Runes, one of the lucky and knowledgeable Vikings that managed to teach himself how to communicate through them. Floki could read and write, understand and create tales through this means, yet the phone device he was given? This was all new and strange.
So, here he was. The first appearance over the network sat in what looked like a beautifully crafted, ornate wooden Viking boat. The head was of Fáfnir, the mythical Midgard Serpent. Floki slumped against he neck of the dragon, a smirk-like sneer pulled over his lips. He placed the phone on the side of the boat, freeing his hands so that he was able to pick up a rather large wooden statue he'd handcarved himself. ]
May the Alföðr himself, bless my boat.
[ Raising both arms to the sky, fingers twitching in random movements, a strange chirp of a giggle left his lips before he stroked the statue with one hand, a gesture of praise with his other, moved down his forehead before kissing the knuckle of his thumb. ]
The true Gods should be pleased to see someone still worships them. I shall be blessed a bountiful life so long as I reject these false deities... And you should all be wise too, turn your back on their lies, for Odin is forgiving of the ignorant and blind but not those who will turn their backs in blasphemy.
[ Turning his head aside, Floki spat at the ground as if he was so disgusted in what he was saying, disgusted that people here fell for the glamour these so-called Gods had them under. ]

[He says, and his brain catches belatedly up to his mouth and he decides that he needs to do some message control here.]
Well, I was involved in a series of fights that involved both brothers. Loki came and went pretty much without announcement, but Thor- well, of course there was thunder.
[Quickly;]
I'm Doctor Banner. I'm just- from interesting times.

What is a Doctor? Some kind of Shaman? A Seer? Or do you own your own settlement?
[ A smile was offered as was his name, he wasn't used to an introduction. ]
I am Floki, I'm just a joker nothing more.
[ He smirked as he spoke those words, a smirk as sly as a fox followed over his lips after he spoke. ]
So, you tell me that the Alföðr is dead and his sons fight among themselves? ... Was it snowing or cold? Perhaps what you witnessed was the start of Fimbulwinter though... Was Baldr still alive and well?
[ Sorry Banner, he's going to assume you know and are acquainted with all of his Gods. Considering you said you were from interesting times and all. ]
