VIDEO. UN: LOKI.
Hello there.
[ Loki's standing on the porch of the ashen saloon, black bones against a dusky horizon. ]
Another day saved, another mission over ... [ he says it in an "all in a day's work" sort of tone. a finger twists and he gestures outward. ]
As the story continues! [ the drawl comes from his lips slowly, as if for dramatic effect. ]
We've met our arch-foes, saved a part of the fractured multiverse from apparent destruction and preserved the integrity of the timeline—erm, hopefully on the last two, anyway. In light of current events, and while we all cool down, I thought we'd play with a little fun hypothetical to stimulate conversation. Call it something that's been on my mind. So, riddle me this, Audentes ...
If saving a world meant destroying it—you know, kind of like a hard reset—what would you do? Would you do it, let it die and get coffee instead, or would you fight with tooth and axe for its survival, despite all odds? All methods in between, of course, feel free to be creative.
[ sometimes, some things remind him all too much of Ragnarok. ]

You didn't even agree with me then!
[ or... acknowledge it... at all........ ]

You're not taking it back, are you? This is part of it.

It's just pretty messed up to expect people to be truthful around you when you barely wanna talk about yourself. What kinda "team" is that?

[ yes, that's what he got out of this. ]

[ can they possibly stay on one topic for longer than two seconds. please. ]

Maybe they aren't trying because they think it's all they're ever gonna get.
[ a thoughtful pause. ]
All that dancing around you do, are you sure you even want other people to know you?
no subject
[ would you still like me, if you did? ]
If you want to know the answer, ask me again face to face with a drink in your hand.
I'll tell you.
[ he still sounds casual, as if this is how all conversations like this go. he won't answer that on the network, not with so many people (along with ALASTAIR) possibly leering in on the conversation. Lance may be a little reckless with his communicator, but Loki meant to keep things more private. ]
