I'm happy that you're comfortable enough to get on with things.

But that doesn't mean you have to use me for everything

She uses you for everything? That must be uncomfortable...

[agent_romanoff]

...Almost everything.

Luckily she's lenient when it comes to games. I have some say in things...sort of.

[slyest]

Isn't that your purpose? To be used by those who hold power over you?

[agent_romanoff]

[She contemplates that for a moment] I'm given orders, but that doesn't mean I have to follow them.

But if it is...[She tilts her head] that's your purpose too then, huh?

[slyest]

[He laughs, a low, quiet chuckle.]

Who do you believe holds power over me?

[luckywebhead]

Sounds kinda onesided to me...

[agent_romanoff]

The mun deciding your actions.

[She rolls her eyes, mocking him] It's really that simple, Loki. You aren't 'real power' here.

[agent_romanoff]

I-it's not. We agree on some things.

[Oh how she wishes that sounded convincing]

What games are you currently playing btw dude?

[luckywebhead]

...Uhuh. Like?

uhh i just wander around the memes. i'm pretty new to DW

[agent_romanoff]

[a pause]

Anything with humour and violence is good?

[luckywebhead]

Sure, getting some exercise is pretty fun. *he cracks a grin* Me and my mun have that in common.

[slyest]

It's certainly easier to tell yourself that, isn't it? To believe the monster contained.

Far be it from me to dispel the illusion.

[agent_romanoff]

See. [She quirks a small smile] A mutual agreement.

Not onesided at all.

[luckywebhead]

And if I asked your mun she'd tell me you've been doing what else in your other time...?

[agent_romanoff]

Wha- [She just looks at him in confusion. She doesn't think she'd ever get used to the way he talks]

Do you ever speak...not like that? Or is that kind of talking normal in Asgard? [Well Thor does speak the same way....kind of]

[agent_romanoff]

Well, when i'm not working, I have to put up with the bitchy teenager i'm sharing this headspace with.

but since she hasn't put me into any games yet, i have to do that a lot.

[slyest]

I beg your pardon?

[The haughtiness drains out of his expression, to be replaced by a sort of blank confusion.]

What is it about my manner of speaking that you find unfavorable?

[agent_romanoff]

[She shrugs, hiding a smile. At least she got him off the topic of real power and purpose]

The way you speak in riddles? [She frowns a little] What monster? What illusion?

[sworded]

Your psycho been sending you to those 'meme' things I keep hearing about, I take it?

[slyest]

Surely you jest. [Except she doesn't look to be jesting and after a moment, Loki sighs, put-upon yet only mildly annoyed.] That wasn't a riddle. I was speaking of myself.

Is my speech truly so incomprehensible to you?

[agent_romanoff]

[Sigh] She's working on it.

[sworded]

Haven't had the pleasure yet, myself. Personally I'm hoping she loses interest before it gets that far.

[agent_romanoff]

Oh, makes sense. [She's just having fun now. Talking to Loki is always entertaining]

No, i understand it fine. I just don't like it.

[slyest]

Because it comes from me or simply because it's different from what you're evidently accustomed to hearing?

[agent_romanoff]

Some of the memes don't look that bad.

Maybe she'll put you somewhere fun?
