[Fiona is a little out of breath, like she just hustled very quickly away from somewhere. Which she did, but that's neither here nor there. The background behind her is some innocuous wood panelling; she's in a house.]

Okay. So. Crunch time. Things are getting nuts out there, if you didn't notice. We are gonna wind up super screwed if we don't hop to figuring out what the hell to do.

[She holds up a vial. It has some alien writing on it, as well as a familiar symbol on the label.]

We found this inside the hospital. A shit-ton of them, actually. So who wants to find out what Zymandis asshole is responsible for this mess and beat an antidote out of them?



[ ooc. PS, maya, hanzo, and mccree might show up in your threads. feel free to threadjack as well! ]

[A chuckle leaves his throat.]

Well, duh.

I mean, you might be a god and everything, but...

That doesn't you mean can't get messed up too.

[People on this team have a habit of throwing themselves into dangerous situations for the sake of others.

Or, in Loki's case, just because it's fun.]

[selfimage]

[ if it's for the fun no one will ever think it's for the sake of others!! HAHAH! ]

It just takes a little more for me, doesn't it?

[moneyballer]

That, and...

[Asher is not about to make a big deal of this over the network, although he is naive enough to bring it up in the first place.

People who are cagey, people who lie all the time-]

Just because you don't get hurt, like, physically... Doesn't mean that it won't be bad for you.

[Are lonely, aren't they?

Like Annalise.]

It's been bad enough for me to let a little more reckless, risky consequence change my mind.

[ he's the god of reckless, risky consequence!!! ]

Don't concern yourself too much, it's not bad for me in the way that you may think.

[moneyballer]

You sure about that?

[He asks, genuinely curious.

What is it that Loki cares about, other than his own reputation, making messes?

There's gotta be something.]

[selfimage]

Do I sound like I'm not?

[ curiosity for curiosity. ]

Only those that are unsure generally ask me if I'm sure.

[moneyballer]

If we're bein' totally honest?

[This may seem strange, especially considering the confidence with which Loki seems to approach everything in public.

That's what strikes Asher as peculiar, though.

Everybody cracks. Someone who maintains an image of being infallible or unshakeable...]

A little bit.

[Has to have more going on beneath the surface.]

[selfimage]

[ a raging storm, Asher, that's what's beneath the surface. ]

Trust me.

[ it's an odd thing for him to say, considering he's the god of lies. ]

I know what I'm doing.

[moneyballer]

[He wants to believe that, but somehow the lingering feeling of doubt trickles its way into his mind. To be fair, it's not as though he would be better suited to this task. Who else, then, if not Loki?

They aren't friends, really.

Perhaps this isn't Asher's burden to bear, even though he worries anyway.]

'Kay.

[The response is short, curt.]

You better not be bluffin', bruh.

[A pointed look into the camera.]

'Cause the rest of us are countin' on you.
