AUDIO. UN: LOKI.

[ tap, tap—is this thing on? ]

Well, Audentes, it’s certainly be a trip. [ and he says that with finger quotes. ] Out of the frying pan and into the fire, that should be our motto.

[ for someone stuck in a maze, Loki still manages to find his confidence. ]

As we take a stroll through the maze and await the next hit single of its proprietor, I—or we, rather—would like to share a few words with you. Our Zymandis tag-a-long has spoken with us regarding some of our curiosities.

Unlike ALASTAIR, Zymandis has a fully functional chain of command, all the way from the higher ups to the underlings. Commanders and sub-commanders and the whole bit, going all the way to the tippy top under their leader … you know—Leader. [ he’s just gonna add that right in on there as a good rub. ] They recruit based on volunteers, and have seen their own share of those slipping through the cracks in the multiverse to end up where they are. It seems that this Mavahari is indebted to them through her rescue, and has pledged her life to follow their blah blah blah rebirth narrative blah blah blah.

Not only that, but they believe that the rebirth itself will prevent the next shatter of our dear multiverse. If the entropy is allowed to play out as is, the result will be much of what happens with Surtur gets his hands on something—burnt to a crisp.

Now, we’re not here to start another back-and-forth, however … we still do have the little detail of our Zymandis stowaway. She’s a political assassin, so I’d suggest not doing much to anger her. [ he’s looking at you Thor. ] For now at least.

[ OOC NOTE | please feel free to threadjack, discuss, &c! the thread with the Zymandis agent is here for all who'd like to reference it. ]

And you feel satisfied she won't go in for a triple-cross.

[ He doesn't put a lot of stock in 'honor-bound'. ]

And ... how is she bound to do anythin' we say, again? What all did we do for her, besides winding up stuck in this place together?
flashbanging: runnin for miles (keep walkin)

[ He puffs on his cigarillo, nodding. ]

Reckon that's so. Just not sure how long that sense of debt is gonna hold out.
flashbanging: deep down, you might like what i've found (come closer)

'Fraid I ain't fully convinced that the answer is gonna come down in our favor.

[ He shrugs. ]

'Least we got the advantage, numbers-wise.
flashbanging: money don't grow on trees (ain't no rest for the wicked)

[ He tips his hat. ]

You're a wise man, partner.

[ McCree often gives off the impression that he's living only for the present moment, but in truth he's always thinking about next steps. Trying to find the thread of things, trying to predict the storms yet to roll in.

(Not that Loki is any different. But McCree doesn't know him very well.) ]
