Re: Loki and Wanda
A glimmer of hope reflected in 'Tom's' eyes as he searched Wanda's sincerity. Internally, Loki reveled in his magnificently woven act of deception. This was one of the the activities that he enjoyed, to lure an unsuspecting person and cause them to trust, then using that person for his own purposes and smashing them, afterward.
"Thank you, Wanda," he said. "It's been such a burden. I feel like I'm sinning against God, but these powers I have.. they seem so natural." He paused. "Do you mind if I give you my phone number? Maybe we could meet later, to talk someplace that isn't so... public?"
