Possible update to a just pre-Avengers canonpoint.

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.

I suppose time will prove one of us wrong, and one of us right.

[tenuefarfalla]

No. If you continue on like this time will only prove one of us dead.

You'd kill me, stand there and watch me bleed out, just because I'm not young enough to be kept under your thumb? You'll spare the children but you won't really spare them. You'll leave them untouched to witness everyone and everything they love here destroyed. It would be kinder to strike them down first.

Don't you dare blame your circumstance for this. You're petty and scared of what you might do without your crutch. If there is darkness in you, it's your doing. If you want to live in the light, that must be your doing, as well.
