[The device isn't aimed at his face, but rather at his hand hand, where he is manipulating a knife between his fingers. The blade flashes in the light, moving quicker and quicker between slender digits.]

Well, well. Congratulations to the victors.

But what have they accomplished, exactly? We yet remain here, after all.

Oh, that I am certain is not here. If what I've heard is anywhere near the truth, it never was.

Brother... what is this? Is it to be all? Your attempts to torment me, of late, have dulled.

[coldchaos]

Oh, you have me. I've had the Tesseract this entire time and have been wallowing in this backwoods realm for the fun of seeing you and Sif not bathe for days on end.

YOU HOLD THE TESSERA -

...that was jest, was it not?

[After a VERY LONG MOMENT...]

My ears are still ringing. I ought not tell you as punishment for screaming into this device.

It was frustration at your grasp of the situation. When this place does give us leave, we shall be put back from the moment we were taken. No time shall have passed. Thus, it is possible we were taken without the Tesseract and thus without means of escaping from this place of our own volition.

[ And yet another moment of silence, then, absolutely nonplussed - ]

Ah. That! That is lie.

[coldchaos]

And why is it a lie, Thor?

video;

[subecho]

Why is it truth, Loki?

video;

[coldchaos]

Do you purposefully attempt to incite me?

video;

[subecho]

You give me lie at each turn, brother. Yet now, I am to think you have decided on truth?

video;

[coldchaos]

I use the truth when it suits, you well ought know this by now, brother.

video;

[subecho]

And what suits you changes with the hour, Loki. What means have I to tell?

My instinct tells me to seek the Tesseract. I know it to be true. Unlike you.

[coldchaos]

I'll not beg you to believe me. You shall do as you like, as you ever have, even in the face of better advice.

[subecho]

If by any means you speak the right of it, I swear - I swear, Loki - I shall cut off my own beard, and walk bare-faced, like children do. This much I believe in my words.

video;

[coldchaos]

And you mock me still.

Rot, Thor Odinson.

video;

[subecho]

One day, with certainty.

Now. What is this strife Sif and you seek with each other? You have made ruin of a home.

video;

[coldchaos]

You would attempt mediation? Laughable.

I've no qualm with Sif, surprisingly.

[subecho]

You cannot strike against women, Loki.

video;

[coldchaos]

I struck at a warrior. [He just defended Sif. BURN.]

video;

[subecho]

You cannot strike woman, for they hit back harder, Loki.

Has your back learned nothing from spars?

video;

[coldchaos]

That depends on the sort of spar with which you mean.

[A glib smile.] But of course, I am a liar, you ought not believe a word of what I say.

video;

[subecho]

I believe nothing.

Where did she aim?

video;

[coldchaos]

No, you believe nothing I say. You believe others who have lied to you your entire life.

You knew where she aimed. At least she fetched me water after.

[ Sympathy... groan... cue... here... ]

My... my sympathies.
