I could find those on my own.

[ god of mischief, all that jazz. ]

What makes your opportunities special?

[abracafcku]

Because it's from me? I'm Taako.

[Honestly, why do people keep asking him this? Taako is a fucking tour de force of awesome. He was on TV (or his world's traveling show equivalent). He's a celebrity (former) in his own right.

Taako sighs and rolls his eyes, crossing his arms over his chest.]

And it's not like I offer this shit to just anyone. There are exactly two people I'd think of doing anything with here - it's a very discerning list.

[dothelokimotion]

[ yeah taako doesn't mean anything to anyone. loki taps his chin with a hum. ]

And who is on this list?

[abracafcku]

[That's both rude and sadly true.

Taako flicks up a finger for each name.]

Lup. And the literal embodiment of Death.

[He tentatively holds up a third.]

I could be swayed to put you at the top of it, ahead of even Death, but you gotta give to get, bubelah.

[dothelokimotion]

[ wryly. ]

I killed Death a year ago. So I'm not sure how this is an impressive list.

[abracafcku]

Maybe your version of Death, my dude.

Remember what I told you about high-fives and gods? They don't die where I'm from.

[They also don't go all happy-conquer-kill-the-world mode like some]

[dothelokimotion]

[ sounds fake but okay. ]

Well, neither of us are where we're from so the rules can change.

[abracafcku]

Truly - so what do you say? You want a spot on this ultra-exclusive list, or are you satisfied with being a normie?

[dothelokimotion]

[ his tone is flat. ]

A normie. Me.

[abracafcku]

[Taako grins. He knew that would hook him.]

It would be a real tragedy, my dude. You are anything but normal. A god as fantastic as you not earning a spot is just--

[Taako touches his forehead dramatically.]

--It's just unthinkable.

[dothelokimotion]

You are blatantly trying to manipulate you.

[abracafcku]

[He shrugs easily and laughs.]

I mean, duh. Of course I am. Why wouldn't I?

[dothelokimotion]

I'm hardly in a place to stop you, but it's not very impressive.

[abracafcku]

You're the one not wanting to be part of a very exclusive club, my man.

I could just call in my favor, but I'd much rather you told me of your own volition, eh?

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki rolls his eyes at exclusive club. ]

You seem oddly keen on this. Is there a potential suitor you're trying not to annoy?

[abracafcku]

What?

[Taako is actually taken aback by that for a moment, then he snorts and shrugs. He tries to look casual, but his shoulders are tense now.]

No. [Yes] I'd just rather not have a plant fuck up my day when I'm busy.

[dothelokimotion]

[ aha. loki has it. the nugget of truth. ]

Or "fuck up" a burgeoning relationship with Death, it seems.

[abracafcku]

I never said shit about a burgeoning anything, my dude. Your imagination is getting away with you.

[Stop it, Loki. He doesn't enjoy this!!!!]

If you're not gonna tell me, then I'll just have to start Blinking everywhere and hope the devil plant can't reach between planes.

[dothelokimotion]

[ innocently. ]

Good luck. On that and your romantic endeavors.

[abracafcku]

Ugh.

[Taako rolls his eyes and throws his hands up.]

I both like you and hate you at the same time. I hope you know that.

[dothelokimotion]

That tends to be the general consensus when it comes to me.

[abracafcku]

I mean. ......Same. [Taako's relationships with most people boil down to them thinking "You're an asshole, but you're useful so I'll put up with you."]

But still, you could have had someone who just straight up liked you.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki chuckles, though it's not a pleasant sound. ]

There's no one like that.

[abracafcku]

[Taako eyes him for a moment, then makes an exaggerated gesture at himself.]

Coulda, woulda, shoulda, my fella. Talk about a missed opportunity.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki huffs. ]

It doesn't bother me. I've long gotten used to it.
