[ikols]

[ Two very green eyes (wide, without their usual cunning gleam) stare into the camera when the recording goes live, glancing up to the username that appears. Reading it, he mutters 'Loki of Asgard' and frowns, glancing around himself as though somebody else may spring up and claim the phone. When they don't, Loki runs an anxious hand through his hair and lets out a controlled sigh at length, standing awkwardly in his tee and jeans in the Floor Five lounge. ]

This phone I woke up with in my pocket is locked and it won't let me do more than make an emergency call. I know I'm on a moon for some reason, what the fuck, so if this is the local nine-one-one line I'd like some assistance, please.

[ 'Calm under strain' would be an apt description. ]

Such as, ah ... What's Asgard? And, how did I just freeze my bed solid? Because I totally did. [ In a panic when he woke up bewildered, oops. ] I — I'm not sure what to do.





( ooc: forward-dating this to tomorrow bc i work full-time and won't be around; loki is suffering a near-complete memory loss for the event. he doesn't remember who he is, his fam & friends, that he is magic as heck, how to use said magic, or his extensive horrid history. all he knows is that he agreed to come to a moon and once had an apartment in manhattan. )

We should put a special lock on the door so they can't.

[ He takes off his boots and wiggles his toes in the grass, leaning back on bent elbows. The view is a lovely one, as well as what lies beyond Jim and over the horizon. ]

Are we good friends, Jim?

[winscenario]

Not big on sharing, are you?

[ Not that Jim is judging, mind. The prospect of keeping this quiet little corner to themselves does sound very appealing. Sitting cross-legged, he turns slightly so he can look at Loki. ]

We are. Very good friends, I like to think.

[ikols]

Not much. [ Big on sharing, that is. He doesn't like the idea of just anyone coming here, not after Jim has revealed this slice of peace and quiet. ]

Why very?

[ Genuinely curious, he tilts his head at him. ]

[winscenario]

[ Jim hums thoughtfully at the question, then shrugs lightly. ]

I don't know. I just... really like you. I think we agree on many fundamental levels, even if you're usually less vocal about them. I think you just prefer people thinking you don't actually care. But I know better.

[ He could be wrong; he could be deluding himself. He doesn't think that's the case, though. ]

You're special, Loki. To me. It's got nothing with you being a god or whatever. [ He raises his eyebrows and purses his lips. ] Plus, you look up to me a lot, and I gotta say, that earns you a lot of points too.

[ikols]

Your ego's pretty impressive.

[ He kicks Jim's ankle lightly, a smile stuck in place that warms his regard of the other man. ]

What do you think we agree on? Pick an example.

[winscenario]

It's a healthy ego, thank you very much. And you're already starting to sound like yourself, just so you know.

[ He smiles amusedly while shooting a wink at Loki. ]

Mm... good question. I think— we both agree that we shouldn't fear what we don't understand. Makes you see monsters where there aren't any.
