Spoilers for all things Cinematic-verse

[deathslover]

Pleased with yourself?

So many doubted and yet you still held onto the hope that what you thought was coming was on it's way.

And now you've been rewarded, mortal.

[Excuse him while he just smirks, admiring the gauntlet adorning his hand with a red gem filling one of the empty spots.]

I will make them all suffer and then my love will have what she wants.

[His fist clenches and a dangerous smirk appears now.]

It's just like the Collector said.

One down, five to go.

[odinsons]

And you think that will be an easy feat to collect the rest?

[deathslover]

Easy? Hardly.

But that's why I count on you mortals to lead me straight to all of them.

[odinsons]

While you sit and do nothing but watch? You must not want the stones enough to collect them yourself.

[deathslover]

Do nothing but watch. Now that is quite hilarious of you to say.

Who do you think we behind your brother's actions?

[kittysdragon]

Hmph,'ell yeh still gonna get your ass kicked, Mister Thanos. Sides, by the time yeh ready, won't just be Avengers yeh have to worry about.

[deathslover]

I highly doubt it. It wouldn't be the first time a collective has tried to deal with me.

[kittysdragon]

Heed's sure if the right Outta Space types band t'gether, they deal with yeh no probs. Fancy Infin'y Guantlet or not. [Lockheed would join them and the Avengers but wrong rihts company so...]

[arach_nerd]

...jeeze, could you sound any more like a stalker?

[deathslover]

I could.

Would you like me to try?

[arach_nerd]

No, see, that was a concept known as sarcasm.

You do remember that she's not into you, right? In fact, according to my mun she's got a thing for fourth-wall breaking mercenaries.

[treachery]

Five gems, nine realms, ten billion souls.

[ He speaks softly, calmly. Nearly without inflection. ]

And here, lonely as an unanswered prayer, a single lover of death.

[deathslover]

And tell me, Loki. What have you accomplished? You can't honestly think that throne will bear you for much longer.

[A small smirk.]

It's not as if you got that far without the aid of another after all.

[treachery]

Shelve your mockery, Titan.

[ Lightly delivered words, but still Loki does not shift into his characteristic self-satisfaction. ]

An alliance with the Allfather would only cast a favorable light upon your future plans.

[jotunblooded]

I feel it's only fair to point out that they have a Hulk.

[Not that it matters. Not that anything any of this universe's pathetic amount of heroes could possibly muster matters. Not against Thanos.

It's part of the reason why Loki hasn't bothered to say anything as to the identity of his true master, even if he would really very much like Thanos to be taken off the board. Once upon a time, he would have at least taken some small satisfaction in watching Asgard and Midgard burn.]

[deathslover]

So I've heard and seen as he so delightedly tossed you about.

It's about time someone with an actual threat level presented themself.

[jotunblooded]

I'm surprised to hear you admit they're a threat.

Admittedly, they are certainly...surprising. But they're also a populous world, which I know you were after from the start.

[A lot of bodies all at once to please Lady Death. Loki looks faintly ill at the prospect, now. He's not above killing, but even he can hesitate now at the thought of a slaughter.]

[gamora]

Because that's worked out for you in the past.

( alternate universes - Gamora is already 100% done with them. )

[deathslover]

This time around seems like it'll already be much more fun.

[Hello former apprentice of his~]

[gamora]

If Adam was here he'd say something about your character flaws remaining unchanged.

( a universe without adam warlock is a weird universe and one gamora doesn't actually think would benefit from it. )

[uncompromise]

[Frysquint. But at least Barton doesn't even so much as flinch when he speaks.]

Messing with us didn't work out well for the last guy. You won't be any different.

[deathslover]

I'm not just "any guy" though, human.

Far from it.

[uncompromise]

Neither was he; it didn't make much difference in the end.

[Bravado is a beautiful thing.]

[hold_on_to_your_nuts]

[Some things are a constant.]

Oh yeah? Well lemme spoil something for ya, you're gonna lose in the end, your types always do.

[deathslover]

Except when we don't. Things do not repeat as you all seem to think they do. There will always be differences and outcomes you aren't ready for.

[hold_on_to_your_nuts]

They repeat well enough. And 'course there are always different outcomes, doesn't mean you can't handle em when they come your way either.

[Don't make her kick your ass Thanos, you know she can. And there aren't any clones to save your pride this time Or are they?]
