Hello, Ducks.

It's been awhile, hasn't it? And while you have sat, continuing on with your trite day to day drivel, I have actually done something. We've little use for speeches on the topic - the things that happen to the realms of our universe must mean little to the rest of you, especially once you realize how futile and meaningless your efforts become when the network doesn't allow you to world-hop. It's a pity, isn't it? The way it always seems to stop working right when you need it most, tearing you from the people you care about.

It's a terrible thing to worry about. A freedom too great and insurmountable to deal with. A lie too well told, enough to feel comfort that is pulled the moment you need it most. But Midgard has learned much of freedom such as this. Humanity, which is so unequipped to deal with the consequences of it, is so much better off without. And in losing it have freed themselves. How like a paradox it must seem, but the point remains all the same.

Asgard and Midgard both under a united rule - it was a shame kings prior never saw the cunning of it, for Midgard has more virtues than had often been ignored, due to the mortals from whom they came. But I am king now, and I understand these things.

[Long live the king.]

[ You sit like a whore, Loki. ]

Did you gloat enough for all of the community?

[there is enough room for you here too, Sif.]

I might have, yes.

[ only if she's not the one kneeling. ]

And what? Expect congratulations?

[look at all the space between his legs just sit right there]

I don't need congratulations - and certainly not from them.

Are you hoping they'll send you flowers someday?

_{( He stands off to the side, at attention like a soldier. Eerie blue eyes and weapons on his back. But in his hands now is Loki's Kindle, which he turns over and shuts off. )}

Is that all, boss?

Will you?

I can't say that I will.

[ what if she grabs him where it matters most. what then. ]

They won't kneel - our universe isn't theirs.

Yes, thank you.

[CLINT YOU HAVE NOW BEEN PROMOTED TO ONLY FRIEND LEFT IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.]

You used the network before all this, didn't you?

That's a shame - I would have liked that.

It's been too long, Elektra.

[oh baby, oh baby.]

They are stronger than you, then?

[ later, because you know what it sucks being the only one of her friends left alive. ]

Barton?

[ you know what she needs conversation that isn't Loki. ]

I was forced, and you did not do the honor of killing me when I refused.

[ get out not in public. ]

Precisely because you think it an honor.

[no come back]

_{( Wow that doesn't feel as good as it should, what are the healthcare benefits like?

Also he's just going to shrug, probably approached to hand Loki the device so he can gloat respond to people. )}

Once or twice. Can't say I had much use for it.

I'm sure someone else will think of it eventually. I'd ask if you were enjoying yourself, but I think the answer is obvious.

Did you miss me at all?

So like you to rob me of everything I want.

[ it's not like she has a choice. ]

_{( He just nods, keeping that stock-straight position. There's tension between his eyes, like he hasn't slept. )}

Lady.

_{( Is that him being deferential or ironic? Who knows. )}

[that glowstick only really got you so far, didn't it, Loki? there's still one loose end out there.

and that loose end is watching you through a pristine incoming video feed. his outgoing feed's scrambled, though, so any video you might be able to pick up is grainy and worthless. you'd think he was broadcasting from a cave, or something.

it's probably because he is.

sure, the Ten Rings haven't been seen around Golmira for years - but they left their spaces behind them, and a certain quiet, private sector of Stark Industries has slowly, unobtrusively moved in. it's the kind of dark, quiet place you'd expect to feel ghosts everywhere ... but really, there's only one, and Tony Stark doesn't mind his presence one bit.

it's a constant reminder not to waste what he's got, after all.]

Shakespeare was never nice to kings.

I'm just sayin'.

Sometimes, you end up getting all the things you want. I have to admit, it is a rather good feeling.

I did miss you, though, faking one's death is terribly boring.

[ Sif doesn't, and at this point she doesn't really care. ]

I---

[ This is the hard part, trying to think of something to say that doesn't twist her up inside. At least Clint has the excuse of being mind-controlled. What does she have? Nothing. Just the guilt curling up inside and no honor. ]

We should spar, if you think you are able to handle it.

[ Beating things up usually helps, though she doesn't know how much of a challenge Robo-Clint will be. ]

(how long has he been in the dungeons like this? a place held for those traitors to asgard, now it houses the true king. shackled and bound, hammer far from his grasp held by venomous promises to do harm to the realm and the people that thor so loves.

thor is bruised and defeated, chained and bound to walls that not even an asgardian can break through. all he's left with are the feelings of overwhelming self-loathing that he could not protect the realms, but that he couldn't protect his own family from loki's wrath.)

When did we become like this, brother?

(something he asks himself often, knowing that there is no one really to answer him.)

Such is my role to play.

[really good - they include not being randomly killed by Loki which, in this day and age, is always a plus.

but cool, he takes the kindle back.]

I doubt that anyone truly does.
