Action
[When Loki wakes up he feels very, very woozy and he has a hard time to focus his eyes on the sky above him. It takes a while before he realizes where he is and who he is for that matter.]

By Odin’s so...

[He stops mid-sentence because his voice does not entirely sound like his voice. Its heavier, more mature and...oh, it seems his hands have grown as well. Loki frowns and sits up and after the world has stopped spinning he starts to realize that he has grown. Or that he is stuck inside the body of his Evil Self. Or that he was his Evil Self but then not entirely evil.

So he sits there for at least five minutes and watches his feet intently. After that he moves his hands to his face and hair. And the frown on his face deepens when he notices his hair is thin and long and really not dashing at all. Now it definitely makes sense why his Evil Self hid his hair under that helmet. At least that is one mystery that got solved.

With a huff he gets on his feet and decides to head to the village to pay a visit to the shop. Perhaps a hip outfit could make everyone forget about the problem with his hair. Maybe a cool hat and a pair of jeans.]

Attention, attention. Your days of fretting are over, Luceti for I have returned! That means the moment for a great feast has arrived. Et cetera, et cetera and so forth!

Please inform me about all the juicy gossip and similar talk, I am rather curious what has happened during my absence. I hope it is not all doom and gloom and stories of woe and sorrow. For instance, I truly hope Vegeta the Saiyan has found the fitting panties to his outfit. It has been on my mind for quite a while, you see?

Sock-a, I wish to sail on your boat.

Where is Thor? His odd collection of plants is still here but he himself is nowhere to be found.

Ah.

He went home, right?

[OOC: I still have not made any relevant icons but just so that you know, Loki looks a bit this now. Minus the fluff on his back. He just arrived in standard white shirt and pants. He’s still the same little shit inside.

Yes, you can find him hanging around in the forest or the shop or anywhere between, just specify! c:]

[Saori puts her hands on her hips and grimaces. Yes, she's lying. And no, she's not going to talk much more about it.]

I don't like bad boys. Especially bad boys like your other self.

[She nods]

It's a stupid looking thing I saw him wearing once. Absolutely ridiculous.

And you know, carefully guided magic is not the same as corrupting powers. It won't make you evil. It's how you use your power that determines if you're evil.

[Loki shakes his head. He is not entirely familiar with Adele but the moments he had been talking to her had been fun. And she makes quite good tea and sandwiches. Sandwiches are very important.]

I do want to know why she prefers my other self to you. Maybe you are not willing to tell me now, but perhaps, when the pain has subsided, you are able to tell me, yes?

[He gives Saori a serious look. Because this has is similar to what he did with Leah.]

My evil self has a helmet like that as well. Its made of gold and he wears it frequently.

[For a moment Loki stops to stare at his nails, noticing that they are painted black. Briefly he wonders if his evil self is a goth. According to the world of online it is most goth to have fingernails painted in black.]

I am unsure of that. What I have done is awfully selfish. I rather not get involved with magic anymore.

[He shakes his head again, more resolute this time.]

After all, it has brought forth more pain than anything else.

If I knew why she prefers someone that vile to me, I'd tell you. It simply does not make sense to me either, but that is her decision, not mine. Mortals do strange and often stupid things quite regularly, and it seems I was wrong about Adele being one of the saner ones. Since his arrival she's spent more and more time seeking him out despite knowing who he is and what he's done.

[She sighs tiredly]

I wish I knew, myself. But she's hardly worth the effort if this is how she repays my kindness.

[She shrugs half-heartedly.]

Magic has it's uses. It's all in how you apply it. Perhaps, though, you're right and you aren't ready for it. Better to not meddle until your certain of yourself.

He drew a mustache on my face when I was in the hospital. After he was done with his great, great gloating. It was rather...er...pathetic. I think that is the right word, pathetic. Sad.

It is truly strange that she prefers him above you.

[Loki shakes his head to convey his disapproval.]

Perhaps time will heal wounds and the like. Time tends to do that. That is one of the great benefits of time.

[At her last words he nods. There is a bit of a sad expression on his face as he does so.]

I am not. And I still miss Leah. The combination of both might end up in a disaster.

I am also in need for proper clothes.

[He plucks at his shirt again.]

[She's happy to drop the subject of Adele. Time won't fix this, she thinks, but that's not her choice, that's Adele's. The door is open, but somehow she doubts the woman will take it.]

I miss Yuuna, as well. So we're even, there. Now your clothes. Have you been to the shop?

[Loki's thoughts linger on the subject of Leah's presence for a moment before he blinks and focuses back on Saori next to him.]

Aye, we're even.

[He smiles.]

I was on my way to the shop, actually.

[He wonders if they would have his evil self's clothes.]

Then why don't we go together? Maybe we can find something...fashionable instead of those ghastly rags that the other Loki wears.

[They really, really are just...ugly.]

[Loki raises his eyebrows for a moment, wondering if she meant the other Loki or his own Evil Self.]

Er...I am most definitely not him.

[Its still obvious he does not feel entirely comfortable looking like this so he walks fast.]

I wish to obtain a t shirt depicting a face of rage. In a bigger size, that is.

A face of rage?

[She shakes her head]

We'll find something, I'm certain. Perhaps an Iron Maiden shirt will have appeared.

Aye! A me-mee. The ones I have in my room are probably too small. I prefer to stay up-to-date.

[Loki raises both eyebrows, curious.]

Iron maiden? A maiden made of iron? I am afraid that does not suit me, Saori.

No...Iron Maiden. It's a band from England. Surely if you're up to date then you've heard of them. I know they're very famous. And they play rock music that isn't abominable.

[Such as it is, anyway.]

Edited (gdit typos) 2013-07-10 16:46 (UTC)

Is Iron Maiden an old band?

[He raises both eyebrows and gives Saori a very serious look.]

No.

[Her voice is flat and emphatic. Iron Maiden isn't old at all.]

With old men? Old, old music?

No. They're young men.

[Guess we're stopping at the item shop and hoping to find a copy of Powerslave or something.]

Are you one hundred percent sure, Saori?

[Loki narrows his eyes and allows himself to relax more. He crosses the square, walking a bit faster than Saori and heads towards the shop.]

Hurry up!

[And that yellow smiley cap in the window? He'll definitely take that!]

Yes. I am.

[Geez Loki. That hat is garish. She walks right over to the t-shirts though, and immediately points to a selection of Iron Maiden ones.]

Are these angry enough for you?

[Loki stares at the tshirts and then back to Saori. And back to the tshirts again.]

I am not fond of these. Are they heavy metal rockers? Why do they prefer these images and what connection do they have with the name Iron Maiden?

They're some of the first, they helped create metal music.

[She shrugs] The name of the band is Iron Maiden. I think it's named after the torture device.

So this is old people music, Saori.

[Loki pouts.]

Unless the metallic music is most young.

[He looks at the shirts again.]

Ah, a torture device. Er...that would be more fitting, yes. Are you fond of this music?

[She sighs, waving a hand]

The entire genre is young. And I am at times. It's not my favorite, but it has it's merits.

But they are old.

[He is still holding on to the shirt though.]

Do they wear pants with holes in them?

[She gives him an odd look...]

Why...would anyone do that?

Perhaps to convey the concept of old. Old pants, old people music. Thus old.

That's stupid, Loki. Pants with holes need replacing.
