Video - Memory Theatre

[alwaysangered]

[Bruce sees the video as it starts and leaves it running. He has no memory of what the Hulk had done and he is curious. His face appears very briefly on the screen at the end as he tries to shut the video off.

So the other guy has his uses.]

[ Oh, you didn't imagine he'd have reformed, did you? Perish that thought. ]

I believe that equipment was not up to your standard, Dr Banner. In this world, my restraints fell away. Is the same true for yours, I wonder?

[alwaysangered]

[They were in tact. Bruce was not going to let Loki break him with words. He has practiced years of self restraint.]

Mine are in tact.

[godoftricks]

Are they?

You seem so sure, Dr Banner. Control has eluded you for so very long. The risk you take, trusting to such uncertainty in such a closed environment, truly beggars belief. I confess I thought more highly of you than that.

[alwaysangered]

[A muscle twitches in Bruce's cheek. Loki is only throwing his own concerns back in his face. He has to keep it together in the confined space of the city.]

It would be convenient for you if I did lock myself away.

[godoftricks]

Oh, quite the contrary. I have already faced your wrath, after all.

It is not I who should fear for my life at your hands.

[alwaysangered]

[A muscle twitches in Bruce's cheek. Loki is pushing all of his buttons.

Silently Bruce switches the video off and his fingers grip the nearest surface.]
