Notes: Connected to demon pact plot here! Also if it isn't obvious, he's lying

[Technically speaking, this is a form of Loki who hasn't appeared yet. For those who know the 616 Loki, they might recognize it as his previous form. Since for the most part, it is! After all, it's the form of a grown up Kid Loki. Speaking of Kid Loki...]

I've something to share with you all that I believe will be of great interest. 

[he grins as he continues his little monologue]

It's possible to leave this place. I would know, being the first one to do so. 

I understand if you doubt me, as I am the Prince of Lies. But let my appearance prove that I speak the truth. I was here before, in my youth, and I am here before you now.

Enough about me, though, I do hate talking about myself at great length. Plus, everyone wants to know how, yes? So I'll shut up and get to the point.

If you hear a voice whispering in the back of your mind, let it in. Let it speak its piece. If you do, it will grant you escape.

That's all!

[It takes David longer to get there, and he doesn't look impressed by Loki at all. Still dressed in business casual from the office, he walks right over to the table Loki's at and sits down, a stern look on his face.]

No, I'll be able to do this without that. And I don't want the cloak. I want your sleeve. Cloaks come and go and can be traded among people. You're a Loki, all of you wear clothing that seems like it was made just for you.

[Extremely scary girlfriend? No, David doesn't buy that either.]

Who are you dating?

[Possible, but still not believable. He doesn't rise to the question of Leah just yet. Instead he reaches out and lays the bare skin of his have against the sleeve. His eyes close and his mind delves into his power, pulling back just enough of his shields to experience what the clothing is telling him.

He almost misses it, actually, the first gap. His shields were still strong, trying to keep him from feeling it all. It was like feeling a small rock under his shoe. With that David opened his defenses completely, prayed Loki didn't touch him, and shunted away the feed from his own clothing before delving in deeper.

Holes. No, this is a Loki. It's more like a book missing parts. And not pages torn out. Blank ones, peppered through it all. He finds them everywhere. The clothes don't even know how old they are.

That realization has David jerking his hand back as if burned.]


Have you ever heard of a French author named Georges Duhamel?

He wrote something rather relevant to this situation I think.

[And David recites it, in the original French of course. Loki should have the All-Speech, so language was no barrier.]

Do not trust your memory; it is a net full of holes; the most beautiful prizes slip through it.

[But he doubted Loki would believe it.]

Let's get into the questions. How is mutantkind doing?

[Strike one.]

Mister super fan of the X-Men and friend of the New Mutants doesn't keep tabs on our endangered species? Bullshit.

[What next? He could pry into Billy he supposed. If Loki had been in a world where Ikol had never killed him, David would never have been one of their number. But... some things had been in motion before they had met.]

Has the Watcher recovered from the Siege on his home?

[Trick questions are fair game, aren't they?]

[Strike Two.]

You can make things up about Asgard and Thor. But Asgardian lives are more than bound enough to the fate of Earth that you should know the major things going on.

Tell me of Billy Kaplan's life.

[If there was one fate that was likely unavoidable, it was Billy's. Being the Demiurge probably just like that.]

Uh huh, which is only more proof that you either didn't go home, or you're not the kid, but let's continue.

What is the state of Asgard?

How did it fall?

[No, he doesn't think this is Ikol. He thinks this is something worse than that. He thinks this is the Loki That Was. The Old Man as the other two sometimes call him.]

And who started those wars? What did you do to prevent them?

[Because it sounds like this Loki reaped all the benefits.]

I see.

[Well, that had made David's mind up.]

To answer your earlier question, no, I don't think you're Ikol.

I believe you are what you always intended to be.

[David stood up, and the look on David's face was an actually sad one.]

You are Loki Laufeyson, The Lie-Smith, manifest in the flesh he intended to take hold of, and with a clean slate. But you are what you always schemed to be. Seems that you didn't need to use Ikol to come into your resurgence of power. Just to convince a child to listen to a voice whispering in the back of his mind. And you even managed to see your brother dead and Asgard fallen, as you would have wanted. Power is yours, and Midgard better fall in line lest our mortal skulls make your throne.

You are not the child I knew, not in any future he would have worked. He was mischief, yes, but he was good in a way no other Loki ever could be. He was a hero. He was my friend. And I swore to be his ally. Even against the corruption of himself. I swear by your own name that I will restore him.

[And with that, he turned to walk right out. He was absolutely turned off his lunch.]

[Really? He's doing this? As if David can't get away from him. He's got plenty of tactics up his sleeve, he'd prefer not to use them.]

You don't want to kill Thor, you love him. You love your brother. Which is how I'm even more certain that there is more of the Old Man in you than there is of the kid you claim to have been.

[And then he moves around Loki, continuing toward the door.]

[Yeah, he felt like shit for that. Making the guy cry was SUPER not fair, but it sure sold the idea that this was just a kid under a vaneer of something else. At least he hadn't had to resort to his other tactic. Instead he strode outside and started to reach out to the other Loki, the one he needed to help him fix this.]
