ODINSON! Whatever trick or spell has brought me here, I know it was your doing. I will not be toyed with, craven! Come whence the shadows you hide in or I will hunt you down and drag you out of them, and I will not be gentle.

You think yourself king of Asgard? Then face me like a warrior of Asgard. I would see you answer for your deceits and treachery!

And you, in all your cleverness, never bothered to check for an impostor.

I am to believe an impostor could deceive the queen? You do your mother great insult with such a suggestion.

With Thor gone and the Royal Family in tumult? I am not the only practiced liar in the Nine Realms.

Yet you still remain the one with the most to gain.

[ a thread of doubt. pause. ]

Laufey said the House of Odin was full of traitors. Only a great master of magic could deceive Heimdall's sight.

I thought I was called here for a reason. There is an Oracle, and she said -- no. I must have been detained. And deceived.

[ He loathes the thought. ]

...You truly believe yourself a victim in this.

You must have taken such delight. Look, the second son of Odin, a proven traitor. And you, the warrior, so ready to leap at my throat.

I will begin my preparations for transport off-planet immediately.

I regret to tell you that I only have the power to take myself.

[ you know what loki fuck you ]

Do not presume to know what is in my mind! I have spent these last few days fearing I would lose both my friends; I have forsaken my vows to the throne to do what I believe in my conscience is right.

The thought of you as a traitor gladdens me no more than the thought of you dead.

And now it is I who would call you liar.

And no doubt you will find many friends among the populace here.

You are in no position to question my honor.

I am in every position! I committed none of the crimes you were so eager to detail.

Answer this truthfully:

Were you responsible for the frost giants breaking into the vault?

Why would you believe that I was? A sorcerer powerful enough to imitate me could have easily stepped through the wards.

Hogun thought it to be possible, and you know he does not speak without cause. After the audience with you upon the throne... You did little to engender confidence or trust. Our suspicions seemed confirmed.

[ actually considers the next words before they come out of her mouth ]

I am told some of the others here come from different timelines.

...so, now knowing that I am not a traitor, you seek to blame it on another Loki?

[ she grits her teeth ]

I was going to say perhaps I have wrongly accused you, but I can continue to lay blame at your feet if you wish.

[ look loki she can be petty too ]

I am entitled to take my retribution in blood, Sif.

Be grateful that I will not.

You are too gracious, my prince.

And time is pressing.

[ Transmission off. ]
