[ it's been a bit that he's stewed on it, and honestly, Loki isn't very much up for the opinion's of others. this time, there's a nagging little curiosity in him, something that springs something else to life that he thought would be easy to bury when he arrived.

so: ]

All appropriate extended greetings and "good afternoon"s.
Which one of you hail from a universe that has gods?
Not just gods in the literal, very physical sense, but also gods in the mythical one. Please, tell me about it. Indulge my boredom.
I hereby dub it story time.

There are ways to get around that, too.
There are always ways.

[impede]

Then I suppose the best conclusion to draw here is that you're not terribly fond of chains.

[selfimage]

No, but the Aesir seem to think I look good in them!

[ see, that's the joke. ]

[impede]

Glad we came to the same conclusion!

[selfimage]

Tell me there were horns too.

[impede]

Long, majestic ones.

[selfimage]

How flattering.
Multiversal resonance of Asgardian fashion.

[impede]

Perhaps I'll find a way to show you sometime.

[selfimage]

Two Lokis in one place is never ideal, you know.
Most may find it downright reckless.

[impede]

I was thinking of more of a sharing exercise.

[selfimage]

I didn't think you were into that sort of thing.

[impede]

Better to do it willingly than for it to happen in a dream.

[selfimage]

Sometimes you just have to roll with things.

[impede]

I must admit, I can't tell whether that's approval or rejection of my idea.

[selfimage]

It's a big "why not?" I'm curious to see what comes from it.
This world may not have the mortal delicacy known as a "milk shake," but there are equivalents.

[impede]

Are you asking me out on an ice cream date?

[selfimage]

As you will.

[impede]

Haha, well ... as long as you don't get your hopes up about it! I see you more as my mentor, after all. I believe anything more would be breaching the balance of power between us.

[ very cute, Akechi ]

From what I've seen, I doubt I'm your type.

[impede]

No. You're far from it.

[selfimage]

Then consider it a generosity.
Since there's a lack of salty breakfast meat, I can only indulge so far. Mortals really do have the most fascinating adaptability when it comes to foods. My brethren generally shove whatever they find on a stick and cook it over an open flame.
It gets boring.

[impede]

If it's salt you're seeking, I can think of a few places that can help you indulge in both the sweetness and savory confections all at once.

[selfimage]

Then, as the mortals say, I'm sold.

[impede]

[Within a few minutes, a pin arrives in Loki's inbox for a small pop-up dessert location. Unique to New Amsterdam in this season and under these growing conditions, it's a sweet and savory cold confections place that takes advantage of how unlikely it should be to grow ... well. Most nuts, actually.

Akechi will be sitting by the window, cheek in his palm, eyes closed as he waits for his "mentor" to show up.]

[selfimage]

[ if it's one thing about Loki, he always shows up fashionably late and looking fairly put together. today it's an asymmetrical black jacket and a pair of matching boots. his hair is brushed to the side: parted differently from last time Akechi's seen it.

he joins him with an easy motion, ducking into the seat and crossing his leg at the knee. ]

Truly a fascinating mortal achievement.
