Any luck?

[justabitoffun]

Aesthetically speaking, I could easily manipulate the piece back into looking as good as new.

[sonofcoul]

But it won't work again.

[justabitoffun]

I'm surprised such primitive technology worked in the first place.

[sonofcoul]

And stayed working for a surprisingly long time. Thank you anyway, for taking a look.

[justabitoffun]

[Loki tsks.] Such a quick dismissal from one so invested.

[sonofcoul]

I had more or less come to terms with it when it got destroyed in the first place.

... Are you saying you can get it working again?

[justabitoffun]

I would not see why I should not be capable of restoring it. I do not have to go by your conventional means of repairing it, nor am I bound by the laws to use whatever it takes.

[sonofcoul]

It would be... appreciated.

[justabitoffun]

I know.

[sonofcoul]

I'm pretty sure you think it's silly, though.

[justabitoffun]

You're not wrong in such an assessment.

That will not effect my efforts to fix it perfectly though.

[sonofcoul]

Thank you for humoring me.

[justabitoffun]

The least I can do for all the humoring you have done for me.

[sonofcoul]

Fair enough.

[leavelolalone]

Put it down......that's not why I wanted you here.

[justabitoffun]

[Loki blatantly ignores the order and continues to hold onto the watch, though he does look up at the agent expectantly, a small, wry smile touching his lips.]

I admit, I am quite curious as to what you have in mind.

[leavelolalone]

[Phil is leaning against his desk trying to put plenty of space between himself and the guy who killed him.]

I need answers and I think you may have them.

[justabitoffun]

[The god shifted his gaze down to the watch in his hands, a finger picking idly at the hole as he smiled in amusement at the mortal's words. His eyes flickered back up to land on Coulson's form with a mischievous glint within them.]

I'm listening. Ask your questions, if you dare.

[leavelolalone]

[Phil looks Loki right in the eye, if Fury won't be honest with him then something happened during those eight seconds that changed everything. He's not expecting Loki to be honest either but he has to know, if he's going to be dangerous to his team he needs to know.]

Do I feel the same to you as I did when you killed me?

if only it were 25 days from now...

[justabitoffun]

[Loki stilled and his expression faded from its mischievous intent to something more thoughtful as his eyes scanned flittingly over the mortal. He did not answer right away but kept the mortal waiting for quite some time.]

...The answer you seek, [he began with another smirk slowly forming across his lips, this one much more wry than devious however] do you really want to know the truth of it?

I KNOW!

[leavelolalone]

[Phil stares Loki down not blinking or looking away.]

I need to know....I want the people I care about to be safe.

sorry for my slowness.

[justabitoffun]

And if the answer is unsatisfactory?

No worries!

[leavelolalone]

If it makes sense I'll deal with it.

[justabitoffun]

But there is a high probability that it is of a nature that you will not comprehend much less be able to 'deal with'. [Magic. Alien science. A number of things that Coulson could be unprepared to face.

Loki's continued delay of the answer is, at best, a test of the agent and his reactions to the prolonged wait. Though the god waits eagerly for each response it is with a passive expression hard to gauge.]

[leavelolalone]

[Phil actually lets Loki see that he can laugh and enjoy himself no matter what anyone else might say.]

I watched two of my team become berserkers just by picking up a staff I don't think anything you could say would freak me out.

[justabitoffun]

[Loki's eyebrows raise at the response.]

Mere child's play. There are far more nebulous powers out there than Asgard's straight-forward might and power.

[leavelolalone]

Oh and are you telling me anything about these powers are you going to tell me nothing and let me stew?

[justabitoffun]

I am beginning to think the latter would be more appealing. It certainly is amusing so far.

[leavelolalone]

I can still hit you you know?

[justabitoffun]

With what? Your pistol? If the weapon your people constructed based off of the power of the Destroyer could barely damage me, what hope do you think a pistol has against me? Your fist? I'd hate for you to break it on my face, little mortal.

Do not threaten me when you are unprepared to make the threat, agent.

[leavelolalone]

[Phil walks right up to Loki and stares him down his expression cold but calm.]

Get this through your head God...I wasn't afraid of you when you killed me and I'm not afraid of you now....answer the dam question before I punch you in the face.
