video; @fromTV (with bonus Loki)

[The scene: the central room of the ice maze, cleared of gifts and drinks, replaced by an oversized throne that looks as though it belongs in some nightmare castle. On the throne sits Loki, in full Asgardian regalia, while Taako has managed to find a perch on the side of the throne, legs dangling off the side lazily, with an arm draped around Loki’s shoulders. He has no regalia to fall back on, so he’s gone for something black and striking, to match the theme of this little spectacle and to not clash horribly with Loki; his hair is braided tightly and his long nails are tipped with silver jewellery that he likely stole from Rin. In the background, there are faint sounds of panic; no screams yet, but questioning, worried voices, the sounds of people who are just starting to realize they should be afraid.]

Citizens of Riverview, [ Loki speaks in a low, lazy drawl that does nothing to hide the menace and power in his voice. ] We have lost our patience with you. So we will be taking over your charming little city. Freedom, after all, is life’s great lie. We will bring order to your messy lives.

[In contrast to Loki’s almost lazy indifference, Taako’s grin is sharp, a slight manic edge to his tone.]

Let’s not be too generous, calling it charming is a stretch and we could do so much better for ourselves, like say, the Capital World. We’re fucking sick and tired of playing nice with a bunch of idiots who wouldn’t know magical power if it bit them in the ass, but maybe the rest of this universe will have some more sense. Which is where-- [In the background, someone screams something about being let out, and Taako sighs deeply.] I wasn’t fucking finished.

[He raises a hand and what looks like black lightning seems to crackle over his fingers, spreading out across the ice and off screen as the background sounds fall deathly silent.]

I know they say to never work with children or animals, but honestly, it’s people that really get to you. [He pauses, lifts a shoulder in a lazy what can you do? sort of shrug] As I was saying, what we need from you is a shuttle to get off this shithole once we're done here.

Comply with our demands . . . or else the rest of you will suffer the same fate that befall those who rebel against us. Succumb to your natural state, your desire for subjugation.

[ As if on cue, a few sparrows fly past them, frost already spreading on their wings. ]

[ It is very hard not to laugh. ]

Are you sure I can't convince you to embark on a career in world domination?

[ Poor taste doesn't even begin to describe this. ]

Are you drunk?

[ Or will she have to hand out some beatings? ]

[ Of course, it is Sif. His answering smile has honeyed edges. ]

That's not what you really wish to say, is it now, Lady Sif? How unlike you to dodge.

But black goes with everything.

Besides, I wear colours. I'm not sure I like that insinuation.
dothelokimotion: (We can only prefer it to the dark)

[personal profile] dothelokimotion 2017-12-06 10:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ Loki shrugs. ]

There is no rule that says you have to don one colour.

[She stares with a mild but worried furrow of her brow, frowning with disappointment. And a little sadness. It sharpens into a sort of glower, though, as she considers the possibility of her freedom being snatched away again.]

... You were my friends.

[Running away is hard enough. What the fuck, guys.]

[ Okay, not as planned. He pinches the bridge of his nose, switching to Spanish. ]

Appearances can be deceiving. Do you believe we would do this?

[ . . . And after a pause, he amends, because Loki would do this. ]

Would Taako?

Mm. My sister stole my theme. It was very hurtful.

[ And a mesh of other issues, but let's downplay that. ]
dothelokimotion: (One arc to a finish)

She probably had a few thousand years over us. Hence the spike in her power levels.

[She glowers, but really, she's upset at the thought of losing friends as soon as she'd gotten finished making them. Trust is not an easy thing for a kid like her; you're gonna owe her big time after this, buddy, especially when she still is looking rather skeptically between the two.]

Scientists can look like happy doctors. Soldiers can give you lollipops if you behave.

Trusting someone does not change when they change their faces!

[She stares for a moment, fuming quietly.

A movie? Playing? Freaking her out like this? What--]

[ Loki remains calm. Mostly because Laura would require it. This is not a lie, at least not one held at the expense of another but this is a deception he must nip at the bud. ]

Then trust your instincts. What do those tell you, little hellion?

[AND SUDDENLY THERE IS AN ANGRY CHILD SPITTING SPANISH AT BREAKNECK SPEEDS, HISSING THROUGH HER TEETH WITH A NEWFOUND FURY AT THE TWO OF YOU FUCKHEADS.]

[Loki can translate, it's a lot of curse words and calling you both idiots.]
fiercestwarrior: (unimpressed)

[personal profile] fiercestwarrior 2017-12-06 11:27 am (UTC)(link)
Proud of your little performance, are you?

[ No, she's not buying it quite yet in spite of what she knows about Loki, but she won't be coming around for dinner anytime soon now. ]

It's easy to meet your collective demands when all either of you really want is more attention.

[ Okay, so at first Aoba thinks he's watching some weird special starring some of the local flavor. After all, Karamatsu gets parts on a variety of low budget shows as the extra who is always dying. Usually in an extra fashion but that's just Karamatsu.

Loki, meanwhile, looks imposing on that throne, like he's actually someone in a high budget film! A main villain, maybe? Anyway he has enough time to appreciate the look before a familiar voice and face appears on the screen. Aoba's smile wobbles off his face.

UMMMMMM? ]


Wh-what are you two doing? What was that black lightning stuff that you just threw?

[ Don't do this guys, it's Christmas (and he's gullible) ]
dothelokimotion: (Comfort was the answer to all)

[personal profile] dothelokimotion 2017-12-06 11:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ Loki gestures expansively. ]

Well then. Get to it.
fiercestwarrior: (cold smile)

[ She would like to punch his teeth out and see that grin fill with blood. ]

And how very like you to defecate on the fallen and rub salt in still bleeding wounds.
