[Her washing slows, fingers lingering under running water without notice as she glances over at him. These are the stories she hates knowing are true, the ones she wishes weren't. Disturbed at the imagery, she turns back to the sink.]
Well, I'm not inviting him over for dinner anytime soon, that's for sure. [All that she can really say about that, really.] Magneto, huh? Was that around the time when he kidnapped you?
I didn't let him kidnap me. [ WOW, HIS EGO. Oof! Took a hit. ] I agreed to fight alongside him and a bunch of unsavoury characters while the Red Onslaught was banging around like a gigantic robotic ass and all the superheroes were trapped in his big fat belly.
[ He huffs a laugh. ]
Amora made Shmidt fall in love with her for a while, you've never seen anything so hilarious as a monstrous Nazi burbling like a baby for a cuddle.
[ Ah, Amora. If only she wasn't so fucking terrifying. ]
Amora, your brief snuggly girlfriend? [NEVER FORGET. He was such an asshole at the time, it's really hard to. Left a bad impression too since she was all wrapped up on her best friend while he calmly noted he didn't have time for unimportant mortals.]
What's she actually like anyway? She and Lorelei are sisters, but they don't exactly seem alike in the personality department.
Don't say 'snuggly' to her, otherwise she'll ensure I never have anything to offer a girlfriend again.
[ Yeesh. ]
Amora's ... loyal to Asgard, always was. She turns up to fight battles and whatnot, but she also tries to twist everything to her own ends. Lorelei likes Midgard, as I told her she would a long time ago; we're more similar than not, minus the part where she casts love spells over every single man she feels like. She and I, we're the second-siblings, the ones who were never good enough, so we get along and can find each other more easily than a lot of people could.
We, uh. Had an on and off thing for a while. I suppose you could call it an old-fashioned Friends With Benefits set-up, if that had existed back in the day. She's a lot cleverer now than she used to be, so I give her credit for that.
Yeah, you've mentioned your situation with her before. Too bad for you that Sigurd's swept her off her feet. Or — vice versa, really.
[She waves her wet hands in the sink before wiping them with a towel, leaning a hip against the counter.]
I actually miss having her around. [As wild as the company was, Lorelei and Sigurd were probably the first set of friends she had after meeting Loki. The obnoxious archaic flirting Sigurd had tried on her was annoying, but once he got hung up on Lorelei, he was decent to have around. And Lorelei was just ... well, Lorelei.]
Sigurd will learn that a romance with Lorelei is ill advised in the long run. When she tires of him, she'll break his heart; if he lets her. They're both as bad as each other, although his experience with the ladies is far more torrid ...
[ Loki slides up beside her, crouching down to rest his chin on her shoulder. ]
Maybe that's what actually makes them a good match in the long run.
[Tilting her head to take a peek at green eyes, she huffs into a hum, lifting a hand to his cheek before brushing a few strands of hair behind his ear.] Yeah, I know. And I'm stuck with you.
