So I'm told, though the exact reason for such an action is lost upon me. Well, as if there was a single one, I could think of many other reasons why someone would wish to control the strength my brother wields.

[and we all know how cool Thor is, and also how moody.]

I take it that Mister Stark lost his popularity for quite a bit among his comrades. He was very uncool, and no one wanted to hang out with him. Yet he was commissioned by the All-Mother to raise Asgardia to the heavens. He succeeded. Take that as you will.

[let's just talk shit about Tony Stark.]

When they cloned me, it's because they wanted their own people to control. It didn't work out. They all got out through an accident and went a little ... crazy. Not all of them were bad or anything, just misguided. Anyway, it was just bad for them in the end because most of them died, sans one.

[... And here's the truly selfish belated realization of how badly Jessica is probably dealing with his death. ... He stare sat his words for a moment before he keeps typing.]

My Tony Stark was one of the only guys that believed in me. It really bugs me that he's not like that elsewhere.

Most nefarious plans beginning and ending with "control" turn out in nothing but what they were conceived in. It's dreadful for all that are involved. That's why we have to stop them! It'll just get bigger and bigger and explode all over everyone. BOOM.

As far as Tony Stark goes, I wouldn't claim to know him well. However, if he's made amends with my brother, then he must have done something of worth to bridge the gap between them. Sometimes, it's not what we do, but what we do to fix it.

At least, I hope that's the case.

Well, given that the UE is already determined as evil, you're right there.

You mean like taking responsibility for your power?

Sorta. :(

My power is being Loki, I suppose. Manipulative and dishonest and quite good at causing a variety of unpleasant problems. It's all I really know how to do. The other Loki before me used all those things to hurt people.

I don't want Loki to hurt people anymore.

I want to save people.

I think I can.

Haven't you already? That's what you told me before I got really mad at you for being a jerk.

Er. Yeah. Sorry. The whole jerk ordeal was a movement of the dick. I hope I didn't cause too much trouble.

I have saved people before, the entire Nine Realms! But I want to keep doing it. It would be awful to just stop knowing I can.

Saving people takes a whole different strategy here.

There are many ways. I'm not adverse to finding another, or many, if necessary.

Well, you probably didn't do it the way I did before.

Most likely not. But! If it's one thing I'm good at, it's finding a way to make myself compliment those who wish to work together with me. :)

There's not a lot of those, but I've no doubt we'll find a way.

We'll see. Working with me is like trying to cram a cat too large into a small box. Some people might wanna do it ... but they don't stick around for long for a reason.

That's great! Lots of people don't want to work with me, either! We're of like interests be that the case! Let me get something for you!

I've used your analogy in a clever textual manner.

First off, we need to get you caught up on cool internet things.

Those are so three years ago.

Is that current time accountable? Cool internet things may be completely different here! This could totally go viral.

Besides, I know of the memes and the polls!

I didn't say they were cool three years ago.

They were never cool.

And polls aren't cool, either. They're meaningless statistics to make people feel worthwhile when other people clicked the same box as them.

You're truly passionate and yet critical of On-Line trends.

I'm a nerd. What else do I have to live for?

Books. I've come to realize that nerds live for books! Books are cool and fun!

Okay, you got me. We do live for books.

Great! We'll steal some from the library while we have our buddy adventure.

Stealing is bad, even in alternate futures that will likely never come to be.
