Who: Loki + You
Broadcast: Video
Action: Planetside
When: Right now!

[ The video starts with Loki out in a verandah, a few tables and chairs scattered around. he's standing, hiding something from view. He pulls out a lace handkerchief, dabbing at his eyes. ]

It seems that there are a few people that have departed lately. And since everyone is very fond of making cryptic sad statements on the network for attention, I thought I would do the same for the passengers that have left us in such . . . [ A pointed dab. ] . . . sorrow.

[ with that, he moves away, taking a seat, revealing a bunch of children with bats and a life sized Dr. Strange figure. They look at Loki eagerly, waiting for the signal and he nods in assent. With a wild cry, they all launch themselves at the statue, beating it up. It even makes realistic sounds of pain. With every tear and visible wound, candy falls out.

Loki conjures a mimosa, leaning back. This is the life. There would be one of Sam Winchester too if . . . Loki had any idea who that was. Alas. ]

[ If only he knew about any of those things. ]

Mediocrity is a loss on us all.

[ragingbanner]

You don't look all that sad.

[dothelokimotion]

I keep it on the inside.

[ragingbanner]

Right... and the, party is just your way of channeling your feelings?

[dothelokimotion]

Why not? At least it's mostly constructive.

[ragingbanner]

Construction paper. [Oops. He says a little louder:] You're right. It's nice. Remembering people.

[dothelokimotion]

[ He heard that. ]

Is it now. Who would you like to remember, Banner?

[ragingbanner]

Well, I- I didn't really know the- him.

[dothelokimotion]

That wasn't what I asked.

[ragingbanner]

I... don't feel comfortable talking about it.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Wryly. ]

What a surprise.

[ragingbanner]

You didn't actually say you missed anyone either.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Clark was gone. Castiel was gone.

Just as well. Sentiment is worthless. ]

Was I supposed to?

[ragingbanner]

Well, that usually makes presentations like this more meaningful.

Relatable. To other people.

[dothelokimotion]

Relating to other people sounds like a disease. I rather not and continue to do things my way.

[ragingbanner]

Then they're probably not going to buy it.

[Just an observation.]

Or tell you as much about what they're feeling.

[dothelokimotion]

. . . Buy what, precisely?

I don't care how they feel. Why would I? I'm annoyed at these passive attempts to put their feelings on the network, a pathetic cry for attention.

[ragingbanner]

[He pauses, taking that in.]

What's wrong with missing people?

[dothelokimotion]

People managing to leave this place is nothing to mourn over.

[ragingbanner]

I agree. It's important for everyone to get out of here and get home.

But that doesn't mean they aren't missed.
