Yeah, I'll pin the facts on you, Loki. How terrible of me.

Why would I rob something again when there's a whole host of other crimes I can check off my roster?

I've already been convicted of robbery and technically committed public intoxication and illicit drug use...what's next, tax evasion?

Can we just forget about that part? I think we should forget about that part.

[selfequipped]

Sounds a little boring for you.

[selfequipped]

Forget that you have positive feelings about me.

text;

[brushoff]

If I jumped straight to murder, people might get mad.

[ plus, y'know, he already murdered someone here..... ]

Here's a novel idea: be good for more than five minutes.

[brushoff]

Ew. No.

[selfequipped]

Then no matter how much good favor you work up with me, eventually I won't be on the same side as you. Do you want that?

[Wow, this suddenly got serious.]

text;

[brushoff]

[ Wow indeed. ]

I don't know what you want me to say here. I'm not a good person. You know that. And I thought you knew that.

[selfequipped]

There is "not a good person" and "I'm going to rack up crimes because I like to willfully show I can't be anything but that." Being a broken record of a different type has to be boring, too.

I'm not planning on setting the Guiness World Record for debauchery. It's just something that happens in my line of work.

text;

[selfequipped]

Your "line of work" is a nightclub job that I got you through Loki.

text;

[brushoff]

My line of work is being Dorian Gray, and all that entails.

[ there's a little groan from him. ]

Forget the part where we have to talk about them.

text;

[selfequipped]

I always thought you were clever. Where did that go?

[selfequipped]

Forget the part where you've already talked about them. [Because he did. He did it all on his own. Aw, he's growing up.]

text;

[brushoff]

Excuse you, I am SO clever.

[selfimage]

Yes, that part.

[ he's looking at her now, eyes narrowing. ]

... This is a very bad forgetting exercise.

text;

[selfequipped]

Are broken records clever?

[selfequipped]

He says to Kate Bishop, someone who has photographic memory. [Her tone is a little singsong.]

We should go buy some wine. We're lucky enough to be here for it.

[brushoff]

Rude.

text;

[selfequipped]

Not rude. Honest.

text;

[brushoff]

Something I'm equally not fond of.

[selfequipped]

I didn't put you in the box you chose to climb into.
