Re: LOKI
“Are you sure? Defender of Earth? Protector of its people? Sounds a lot like an Avenger to me. But I can understand not wanting to be associated with that motley crew of unstable individuals. So your secret is safe with me.” Ah, yes. Loki and the never ending quips. The snide witticisms meant to poke and prod, always hoping to land on something sensitive. Something that would rattle a person.
Granted, if he really wanted to upset the apple cart he could. He’d seen part of Strange from the inside, after all. He knew things no villain should have been allowed to see. But Loki didn’t want to make Strange angry. Not on the eve of their experiment. So he was keeping his jabs playful. And—
Loki blinked. “What?”
Did Strange just raise the stakes to include his Dancing Cat Slot Machine?!
Loki stared at him dead in the eye, momentarily forgetting that this was a game of bluff. And Mobius wasn’t helping any. Loki elbowed him in the side. Then he looked back down at his hand. Just as terrible as it had been a moment ago. Loki laughed. “Seriously? That scepter doesn’t even have a working infinity stone? What would I do with that?”
