CXLV. The Other Side ❄ Loki
Song | The Other Side from The Greatest Showman
--
"Is this really how you like to spend your days?
Whiskey and misery, parties and plays?
If I were mixed up with you, I'd be the talk of the town.
Disgraced and disowned, another one of the clowns.
But you'd finally live a little, finally laugh a little.
Just let me give you the freedom to dream a little.
Wake you up and cure your aching.
Take your walls and start 'em breaking.
Now that's a deal that seems worth taking...
But I guess I'll leave that up to you."

"Have you ever even had fun on Earth?"
"Does trying to conquer it count as fun?"
"Um...no." You grab another piece of pizza from the box. "So, what did you do for fun on Asgard? Before they kicked you out for conquering that, too, I mean."
Loki throws you a sharp look. "I threw lavish parties. Organized a play in my name. Taste-tested the grandest of Asgardian alcohol."
You cock an eyebrow and try not to laugh. "Is that really how you spent your days as King? Parties, plays, and whiskey? That's what you did? God, no wonder they kicked you out. You probably had everyone either miserable or falling asleep." Loki glares at you, harsher than the first time, and you grin while making a snoring sound. "Boooring! Shakespeare in the park. Booo."
"Well, what do you do for fun, mortal?" Loki asks with a sarcastic lilt in his voice. "What do the talk-of-the-town Avengers do for excitement?"
You grin mischievously and stand to your feet. "Well, I don't know about the others, but I have a few things that might make you live a little. Maybe laugh a little, too." You turn and start to walk down towards Tony's lab. "But I guess I'll leave that up to you."
You feel a gush wind, then see Loki appear in your periphery. "This had better be funny."
"You have no idea."
You perch by the back door of Tony's lab, both of you peaking through the little window. Iron-Man is hard at work on a new suit, in his zone. You lift your hand and wave it, using your powers of technopathy (technology manipulation) to start playing all the best vines at full volume on Tony's holo-screen.
The first vine you play is, "It is Wednesday, my dudes," which is followed by an extremely loud and jarring screech.
Tony, surprised by the sudden sound and sights, throws his tools across the room and gives a high-pitched shriek.
"Wattup girl. Was your father a serial killer? Because I'm pretty sure he murdered my parents. And I'm here FOR REVENGE!"
Loki doubles-over laughing, you following his lead. Tony glares at the door, seeing you both perched outside his lab.
"You have five seconds and then I'm sending the Iron Legion after your asses!"
Loki snaps his fingers and transports you back to the living room. He gives you an infamous grin. "You were right. That was truly...truly hilarious."
