What, you like being forced to tell the truth?

[sounds fake but ok]

[dothelokimotion]

No, but I enjoy making others tell the truth. Besides most of my secrets, you are well aware of. What have I to fear?

[spellslots]

You would be a fucking hypocrite.

[Sure, there are circumstances where Taako can enjoy this nonsense, but honesty is just a bad idea all around, in his opinion.]

And a sap, too, kinda.

[That was a lil bit sappy.]

[dothelokimotion]

I never claimed otherwise.

Besides, most of my secrets are well known to Thor and he could never keep his mouth shut.

[ And Asgard is gone. Whatever people might say . . . it means little to Loki now. Loki is mercifully (and frighteningly) free. ]

[spellslots]

I dunno, he never told me much shit about you.

[Not that they've... talked about Loki... ever...]

[dothelokimotion]

And what do you two talk about?

[spellslots]

That's not fair.

[Asking him that kind of question when Taako can't delicately frame the answer. He did meant what he said about not lying to Loki, but there's a difference between lying and not totally telling the truth.]

We talk about a lotta shit, we're friends. We don't spend our whole time gossiping about you, if that's what you're worried about.

[dothelokimotion]

I think we've established that I'm not fair.

[ He really didn't think they were anyway. ]

So mostly bad flirting?

[spellslots]

Who said it's bad?

[Loki did, right now, because he's a rude bitch.]

[dothelokimotion]

I've seen you flirt.

[spellslots]

[He's genuinely shocked into silence for like five solid seconds before the indignation kicks in.]

I can flirt! Fuck off!

[dothelokimotion]

I never said you could not.

[spellslots]

You just implied it was bad, that was pretty fucking clear.

[He's so offended.]

[dothelokimotion]

All kinds of flirting exists. I can recognize that.

[ Words, dialogue, all language falls under his purview. ]

[spellslots]

But you think I'm shit at it.

[the people want to know the truth, loki]

[dothelokimotion]

Well, why don't you show me?

Defend your honour.

[spellslots]

Nah nah nah, that's not how it works, I'm not that easy.

[Well he believes that at least, it's his own truth.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Sounds fake. ]

Then how does it work?

[spellslots]

When you're not trying to get something outta me for your own amusement.

[maybe that's a little unkind.]

[dothelokimotion]

You realize that doesn't quite contest my point though.

How do you flirt with Thor? I hope it's not solely about his muscles.

[spellslots]

[Taako flips him the bird.]

Who even needs to flirt when he knows I'm great at kissing?

[that's not an answer

that's just being a shit]

[dothelokimotion]

[ aha!! ]

So you admit it.

[spellslots]

I'm dancing around the topic cause--

[Nope!! Taako covers his mouth with a hand to cut that off.]

You'll never let me forget it and I'm not putting up with that shit today.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His brow furrows. That seems to imply there's something more. ]

Very well. Just this once.

[spellslots]

Thank god, you did not need to know I called him daddy, even if it was a fucking joke.

[oh.

oh no]
