hanging out at rubycity_rp

[agentskye]

Mun, seriously. Can you stop freaking out over me not having teammates around? Just for one second?

It's only been a month. If they are interested then they will show up. I hope so, at least.

I mean, I totally get it. I miss really them, too. But this is not helping. I got to meet all of the Avengers except Thor and Hulk, so that's already pretty cool? And two Lokis but let's not talk about them.

Sure, it's a really dick-ish move of you to send me for a canon update in the middle of a huge battle and making Cap and the others think I am dead, but ... at least my friends don't have to deal with that? I really could use some emotional support once I get back with those powers you keep talking about, though ...

It sounds like your mundane is pretty protective over you, which can be a good thing, but sometimes gets a little clingy. I do prefer to have my own personal space from time to time.

[agentskye]

Oh, hi. Another Tony Stark. Always great to see you around!

Yeah, she is. I mean, I get where she's coming from and I could use seeing one or two familiar faces, but. She should stop being so pushy. It's not helping.

How do you get your personal space, Mr Stark? I sadly don't have any cool suits to go for a joyride in.

[stark_ravingmad]

It's called a garage or workspace as I like to call it. Welding. I get my own personal space by tinkering in my garage with my technical hobbies. Usually, building iron men or programming JARVIS to do more exciting things.

[Because why the hell not?]

That and a tequila from the mini bar to keep me going.

[agentskye]

I can see how that'd be great fun for you but sadly I am not as good with my hands as you are. I can't even hack into stuff or program something. Because guess what? No electricity, no wifi. Tequila, eh? Well, at least we have more than enough alcohol in the city I am in.

[stark_ravingmad]

What? You're kidding me? No Wi-Fi where you are? What sort of game are you in? The stone age? [He will now be frowning and thankful he wasn't placed in such a game.]

Kid, you need decent Wi-Fi to do anything these days. Then again, I'm hoping to develop something to replace that because in a few years it'll be old hat.

[agentskye]

Nope. I wished I was kidding, but nothing technical whatsoever.

I know, right? I mean, sure. One or two days without the internet can be really relaxing. But it's been a month now. A full month. I feel like I am slowly losing feeling in my fingers. They feel so useless. I have been training and helping Barton renovate Cap's house but ... still.

[stark_ravingmad]

That totally sucks. [He exhaled and offered her a sad glace.]

So, it is technical issues within the game that is stopping you from using Wi-Fi? Or is there just none end of?

[agentskye]

Yup. There being no electricity is the main problem, I think. There are people working on fixing that, but ... then the Leviathan happened and now that project has had to taken a back seat. I really shouldn't have complained that it was getting boring.

[stark_ravingmad]

A what now? So, you have giant monsters in game too as well as no electricity? You might as well be living in the stone age, roasting meat over a fire and cracking rocks. Geez, that's pretty bad.

Is there any means of making electricity somehow? Does the city even have any power sources or are we in burning coal territory?

[puremayhem]

Only two?

[ There are more. So many more. He wonders which wandered their way into Ruby City. It must be the insolent brat and the child. Muns are rather fond of playing them. Something about good intentions and redemption. ]

[agentskye]

A lot of people think that's as much as anyone can take. Others say it's already at least one too many. But I guess you are kinda biased on the topic. [Good motivations to play someone. As good as any, anyway.]

[agentskye]

Someone really hates us, yeah. Well, our version of you seems to have a plan. He has been recruiting helpers before shit went down. There is central heating and water? And batteries.

[puremayhem]

[ Boring intentions. What does the universe need of more do gooders with stunted morale? Loki is Loki no matter what form he takes. ]

My bias only extends to your inaccurate count of two. There are three if we are to be technical.

[ One simply swallowed the lie, as it were. ]

Did Mr. Nobility fail to mention his guilty conscience?

[agentskye]

Three? So we should count the Loki with the hammer and without it as two Lokis? Or ... is it because of the genderflexibility?

Mr Nobility? Do you give all of your other selves cute nicknames?

[puremayhem]

Not at all. The hammer was never his and still is not. Did you truly believe him worthy?

[ A sly smile. Did he also not mention the Red Skull? Quite the liar his other self still is for someone who wishes to rewrite his own story.

He waves a hand. ]

Gender is immaterial. A body is a body is a body.

[ Such were his thoughts when he took over the Lady Sif. ]

I give everyone what they deserve. [ A quiet laugh. ] And sometimes more as a courtesy of my generosity. You've earned your own as well. [ He tilts his head off to the side. ] I admit some surprise it is not worse. The foolish child among the two is not fond of mortals.

[ Yes, MCU Loki is the child. The one who throws tantrums in hopes to solve something. Okay, yes he has nicknames for all of them. Sue him. ]

SHIELD girl, hm? [ A finger traces across his jaw. ] I digress I may have chosen a nickname with more. . .seismicity.

[agentskye]

Well, he said something about a curse so I figured all bets were off?

[He was acting undeniably even nicer than the other Loki - which had all come as a bit of a surprise to her. She thought that the fact that he could lift Mjölnir at all was proof enough, so yeah, she had believed him.]

Sure, if you can just switch and choose. Not like that for everyone, you know?

Maybe it's just because of my charming personality? [Truthfully, she doesn't get it either why he tolerates her at all. She expects it to change any second.]

I am personally fond of "Tremors" but I have a feeling it just won't catch on. Also, in his defense, he can't really know about that yet. [She shrugs. Skye doesn't say it, but the more she hears it the more fond she becomes of the "SHIELD girl" moniker.]

[puremayhem]

[ Mr. Nobility had a reason to act nicer. He had a reason to cultivate a better image if only to drown the guilt and the unstoppable chains of fate tying him to being the Loki everyone knows and hates. How else does one differentiate but by becoming the antithesis of what he once was? ]

When you live for millennia it generally stops mattering. [ The same way it didn't matter whom he took as lovers and how many children he had. It just comes with the territory of being a God. ]

Or his. [ He barks a laugh. ] Let him fool you. I wish to see how it ends.

[ 'Tremors' is one he will consider. ]

[agentskye]

I can picture that. [No, actually she can't. She can't imagine what it must be like to live for that long, to be able to do what these Gods can. It's way out of her league.] Maybe both. [She suggests, smiling but not laughing along. It sounds like he's mocking her anyway.] That makes two of us. I still have faith I won't end up just being another dead body. [And truthfully hoping is all she can really do.]

[puremayhem]

[ It doesn't matter if she understands. It isn't his job to educate her. ]

I don't, but then your worth is not in death. [ They spoke of her powers, yes? ] I seldom seek casualty without purpose. [ Let's not talk about how that purpose could just be him having a bad day, or something. Then he might sound insane. Which. . . He already is but that's beside the point.

But he smirks. ]

[agentskye]

Wow. Aren't you a ray of sunshine. Sounds like my death at least won't be pointless. [She would rather hope it would not - you know - take place at all.

They will see how much of a game changer her powers are going to be. Maybe they won't matter at all. Who knows?]

[element_wizard]

And hopefully the ones you want to show up.

[agentskye]

Oh, you know. Ward showing up would be kinda fun? I'd be able to watch James kick his sorry ass.

But of course I'd prefer any of the others.

[element_wizard]

Yeah, I could see Ward showing up being fun. Especially if he's from before he broke cover.

I'm surprised they haven't shown up yet... but the show isn't as popular as the movies.

Your powers are pretty impressive, from what I've seen, by the way.

[agentskye]

Oh god. That's mean. I love it. He wouldn't even know what hit him. I could walk right up to him, go "Hail HYDRA" and knock him out.

That seems to be the case. But I always thought that Coulson at least was a popular kinda man. That's what my mun says at least and the Avengers know him, so ...

Do you maybe have any connections? Fitz would be really nice. I know now he'd have my back whatever may happen. That'd be reassuring.

Thanks! So far I am not too sure they are. Still have a lot of problems controlling them and I really don't want to cause any damage or hurt someone.

[element_wizard]

I would pay gold to see you do that. Lots and lots of gold.

Weird innit? I mean they did the whole #Coulsonlives thing and everything. Some people might not be happy with how he's ended up on the show - what with all the weird alien blood and TAHITI. Though, honestly, that's never really stopped people before when they're so good at ignoring things.

[He sighs a bit.] My mun has a Ward but they're kinda shaky with him. They've always had a hard time with canons. They try really hard but... as for the others... mmm... I've seen a Coulson wandering around sixwordstories, though I can't say if they're any good or not - never interacted with them.

As for your powers? You're going to rock 'em.

[Shameless pun is shameless.]
