Shooting them doesn't seem to do nearly as much as I had hoped.

.....

The more advanced medical facilities are at the tactical simulation building, the Battle Dome, yes?

...




And perhaps someone could tell me what day it is as well?

Makes one wonder why they would repeat the same torture then.

[Although reflecting upon her month-long ordeal, perhaps she knows why]

Not that they need rhyme or reason to be terrible.

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

To serve as a reminder of how helpless one can be.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

[Something about being told that they are helpless angers her and her tone turns sharp.]

Despicable. Nothing more than bullies with the bigger guns.

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

Everyone's a bully when they've got ants in a jar.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

[...]

...No, not everyone. Some are better than that - than all of us.

[Like Steve. Even after all the power granted to him, he remained true, good, strong of heart - all the reasons why Erskine picked him in the first place.]

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

[He snorts.] Ah, I suppose that's true of humans.

Well, true of gods, really. I've known more than a few that aren't anything to write home about.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

There shall always be poor examples of any peoples. I suppose gods aren't much different from humans then, in terms of personality.

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

Indeed. You've come by most of your filthier habits quite honestly.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

Oh, how surprising. A god with a superiority complex.

[Loki can practically hear the eye-roll in her voice. She's less than interested in discussing the 'greatness' of gods when she's seen better from men.]

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

Rude. And here I was letting it drop that the Aesir are largely a bunch of small-minded and petty meatheads.

But I ought to point out that we wouldn't be gods if we were on the level of mortals.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

I'll admit you have more power than any of us can imagine.

However.

Power is no measure of greatness. Show me you deserve my respect and you shall have it, but not until then.

Re: [Voice]

[complicatedliar]

[He laughs.] My dear lady, I don't particularly care if you respect me in that way. [He's fine being feared, or treated with wariness.]

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

How disappointing. [Not wariness, not fear, just. Disappointment. All the power in the world and no idea how to wield it properly.]

And here I was ready to like you.

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

[He laughs again.] How odd.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

I could say the same for you.

[Voice]

[complicatedliar]

I am rather definitively odd.

[Voice]

[rightfootforward]

Then we're in agreement.

I'm afraid I must go now. The doctor is calling.
