Would you fear me?

The tesseract asunder, the very real, the ether swelling with power. When I return, the Scepter will be in my hand, and I will tear that kingdom to pieces, rend it and grind it between my teeth, let the thorns sweep that damnable village --

...well, I may spare the boy, as he is just a pup.

...and the girl, I have told her I will teach her, and she is a dark little thing.

And I suppose I have done enough to the little Stark princess.

Sif? -- You go too far. I will not be cowed by you. I will spare none of them, and it is thanks to your insolence. What else can I do, when I have come from the dark? It is within me, now. It sticks as tar does, and it is cold as the void between the stars. I cannot live in the light, and thus the light must be destroyed.

I have an army. I will it, and they have it done.

[ And the Hawk was a good general, at that. It was enchanting to watch him move, when Loki pulled his strings. It was triumph every time that little fledgling free will was choked again. ]

Yeah? Sorry, Loki, but SHIELD got first dibs. -And Nat.

[She's the only one who gets how Hawkeye felt. What it feels like to be hollowed out and forced to do terrible things.]

[sorcerous]

It is a master you crave, and none ever used you so finely as I.

Which is why if you so much as sneeze wrong, this arrow's going right into your skull.
