[ The best way to deal with crippling revelations is to make inane posts. Well. Maybe not so inane since he is genuinely lost. ]

What is the different between a boyfriend and a boy friend? Are there various levels of friendship that are distinguished by sex? The online literature on this subject is perplexing in nature. How does one earn these titles?

You have feelings, Loki. You have more than you know what to do with, perhaps, but telling yourself you need to understand every instance of when people may be instigating their own version of intimacy beyond the physical is a bit dramatic, even for us.

[ That is a lie, this isn't even mildly dramatic for them, this doesn't even register on the Loki's Private Drama scale. He just wants to underline his point. ]

[ His eyebrow simply goes higher at "bit dramatic" ]

I won't be caught off guard.

Loki, loud noises catch you off-guard. [ #experience ] Has someone asked you to be their boyfriend? The McCoy man?

Re: [ private ]

[dothelokimotion]

No. He simply invited me for pie and we talked. He has his own lover.

As I said, such a thing is not feasible.

[ikols]

Well, I haven't imploded from it yet, so, I rather think it is.

[ That seems to be the line that he draws with the possible. ]

Re: [ private ]

[ That . . . is a fair point but Loki isn't sure where their stories diverge. ]

And how long did that take?

[ huFFS. ]

The important part is that I'm no longer trying to buy partners with gold and treasure.

Re: [ private ]

[dothelokimotion]

I have no interest in buying partners. Or having them. I would not — [ He sighs. ] I cannot do that. Not anymore.

[ikols]

Not long-term, no. Why are you ruling it out altogether? If you were a mad creature you wouldn't care a jot for restraining yourself.

[ Loki falls silent for a long while, still and unseeing. ]

I suppose it is an arbitrary line but I do not wish to subject people to a Frost Giant.

[ oh is that aLLLLLLLL. ]

What do you think is going to happen mid-coitus, [ it's a rare form for him to take because he loathes it so much and the physical aspects don't matter much these days, but Loki shapeshifts into his Jotun appearance purely to prove he can despite their differences, red eyes in tow and all, ] this?

Re: [ private ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki draws his breath sharply, deliberately avoiding eye contact because he hates it, he hates it so much — ]

Nothing that ridiculous.

[ It's hard to talk. The loathing rises up like a dragon, choking his words. ]

But I will not do it. Not to people who do not know.

[ Before his eyes can finish rolling their way back into green, he shifts back to normal. ]

It's not a dirty little secret, it's simply the body you were born in. We're not defined by it.

Re: [ private ]

[ Loki goes white-lipped in fury before he snarls. ]

Then they should not have made me one.

[ With that, he closes the connection, too enraged to continue. ]
