[ No horns today! Just a guy in a green hoodie with clashing eyes. ]

If I had a penny for every time I am corrected about not, in fact, being a god, I would have a buttload of pennies. I understand the mortal scope is narrow but really, it's quite rude to tell a person they are an alien or a confused immortal. [ Loki shrugs where he is sat in his kitchen at the breakfast bar, nursing an iced coffee and some form of (delicious!) bacon bap. He holds up his fingers. ] I am currently the patron god of: chaos, mischief, lies, stories, outcasts, all those less than hetero sexual acts, those helpful little tabs you use in your notebooks to faster find things ...

[ Tearing a bite out of his bap, he thumbs some ketchup off the corner of his mouth and chews thoughtfully. ]

Would it help if this was a Q-and-A session? Alright. Have at thee with the rude queries, o' mighty rabble. I reserve the right to tell moronic inquiries to fuck off.

Oh! Also. I have worked out a spell that will allow me to extract your universe designation if you are not aware of it and I need volunteers. It's a kind of timestamp or reality-stamp, rather, and it is written into your very being, flesh and spirit. Interdimensional reality warpers usually know theirs but the majority of folks don't, and I wish to build a map of each realm from which we all hail. I promise the process does not hurt! You may get a little woosy and re-live the best or worst moments of your life while under the spell, so keep that in mind before offering.

Thanks so much! You may ask your invasive questions now, as I am sure you are dying to do.

[resurrxion]

I figured that went without saying.

[ikols]

[ A charmer. ]

David is turning the shorter Loki into one of your honorary X-Men, I hear.

[resurrxion]

[ ah, yeah.

there's an awkward pause as he considers the conversation he'd had with the younger loki. the offer to try to break his face - knowing it came at the expense of this other guy he's grown so fond of. ]

Oh, yeah. Apparently he's in good with Dani and that kinda makes him one of ours by default.

[ikols]

Mmm, I remember witnessing it all go down. Kind of.

[ He was not just a magpie but a magpie toy, for much of it. ]

Then I'll hold you all responsible for his well-being when he's inducted into your cause, I suppose.

[resurrxion]

[ well, there's now a small part of him that hates that loki knows his guardian better than he does but ]

I dunno. He was all, I wanna be an X-Man and I dunno if you know this but we're really bad about keeping our own alive.

[ikols]

Then you had best try harder with the boy.

[ Is that a suggestion or a threat? He sounds mild about it, either way. ]

[resurrxion]

I'm just saying, it takes a village.

[ikols]

I'm sure it won't come to the boy dying.

[resurrxion]

Dude, every single mutant whose been here has died at least once and has had at least one non-mutant friend die on them.

But I bet if we had a little Godly oversight we'd all be way better off.

[ikols]

"A little" ...

Oh, no, this is nothing to do with me. This is his business, I won't get underfoot in whatever mischief you X-folks cook up.

[resurrxion]

Nooooot even for my sake?

[ikols]

[ SUS. His squint is almost audible. ]

You have one Loki, Josh, there is no need to muddy the waters of his new territory with another.

[resurrxion]

[ hmmm. ]

People aren't territory.

[ikols]

You are very much his people now.

[resurrxion]

I'm nobody's people.

[ikols]

You can't see me but I am rolling my eyes very strongly toward two people in this realm I know love you more than life itself, and one is not the boy.

[resurrxion]

Okay, but that's not like - just because I love them doesn't mean -

[ mmmmMMm shut up loki ]

What I mean is that's dumb and you guys aren't the same so it's not like we're gonna go, 'sorry we've already got a Loki'.

[ikols]

We're still friends, of course, but I think it's best if you turn your attentions to being his team-mate, now. That would be what I would want, were I him.

[resurrxion]

We're not a team, we're a family. [ .......... ] I need to patch things up with David, I'm saying all his cheesy garbage now. Ugh.

[ikols]

You guys still haven't made up? It's been, like, a week. Two weeks?

[resurrxion]

I might be milking it as revenge for something petty from highschool.

[ikols]

What was so petty that it still bodes ill now?

private

[resurrxion]

[ hmm. at this point, josh remembers that apparently people like leaking things to that gossip channel. eugh. ]

In highschool he didn't talk to me for like, at least a month and a half when he found out there was like, overlap between me dating Laurie and me dating Rahne. It was shitty, like, exceptionally shitty - I'm not gonna defend that. But he was my best friend and he just like assumed I was garbage.

So it's petty but also he never learned to stop making assumptions.

[ikols]

[ Ooo, a private channel. Scandalous. ]

How does revenge taste? Is it sweet? Or does it have the tang of missing your friend?

[resurrxion]

It's annoying because I keep having to time my routine so we don't cross paths. Just so he knows I'm being deliberate.
