[Taako just shrugs, calling whatever bluff this is.]

If you want, not really sure if that's in his wheelhouse, but whatever.

[scholiast]

(Dangit Taako she's hasn't actually asked Loki for his contact information yet. She gives him a deadpan look, and just holds it in her lap.)

Fair point. I'll have to ask around.

[spellslots]

[He eyes her for a moment, then smiles a little smugly.]

Don't have his number, huh?

[scholiast]

I don't like to bother him outside of work hours, is all.

[spellslots]

He's pretty fun to bother, just saying.

[He doesn't know if Lucretia and Loki will get along quite as easily as he does with them, but there's no harm in trying. Probably.]

[scholiast]

Oh, I wouldn't want to go that far. He's been quite helpful with my research project.

(Wipe that smug smirk off your face Taako.)

[spellslots]

[This is what she gets for forgiving him.]

Well, you know what gods are like. Always helpful.

[scholiast]

(Biggest regret.)

Some more so than others. Who knew there'd be so many walking among us here, huh.

[spellslots]

If it helps any, they're not really gods, Loki and Thor. But don't go spreading it around, I think they like to maintain the image.

[Thor told Bryn, who told Taako, but he's mostly kept it to himself so as not to ruin their fun.]

[scholiast]

What are they if they're not really gods? But, duly noted.

(Don't worry, she's just going to make a couple adjustments to her notes later.)

[spellslots]

Kinda aliens, I guess? They were so advanced that when they showed up on Earth, the humans there called 'em gods.

[It's similar to suggestions that other people have made, about their gods, and it never sits well with Taako. He's not stupid.]

[scholiast]

We're kinda aliens, (she points out, and grins.) Does this mean we're on the same level?

(Maybe they should find a planet to go and become gods on. Wait, she's thinking of people like Taako, and Lup and Merle. Bad call, never mind.)

[spellslots]

If you can cast unlimited spells and summon magic lightning hammers then for sure we're on the same level.

[As much as Taako has an ego, he's well aware of his own limitations.]

[scholiast]

Oh, well. When you put it that way we've got a couple levels to go yet huh.

[spellslots]

At least, uh, four? Four levels sounds about right.

[Remember when they had serious conversations.]

[scholiast]

(literally no)

Speak for yourself, I only need two.

[spellslots]

Did you forget the part where I'm a higher level than you.

[fight him]

[scholiast]

Oh, are you a higher level than me?

(put up ya dukes nerd)

[spellslots]

Level sixteen, pumpkin.

[Which... reminds him.]

I saw some of my future. Our future, I guess.

[scholiast]

Sixteen?

(Okay, all jokes aside when did that happen. She blinks.)

Did you? How?

[spellslots]

Same as the future shit, they get these canisters from the portal and it's kinda like experiencing it? I.. I dunno how to really explain it.

[It was a very strange time, and he's not sure how to put it into words.]

I got like twenty four hours? [There's a lot that happened, including an upsetting interaction with Lucretia, but the most important thing:] Lup's back. She's okay.

[scholiast]

Lup's– wait, when did this happen?

(This is a lot all at once and right out of the blue, but her heart soars upon hearing that Lup is okay.)

She's alive?

[spellslots]

She's all lichy, but that's, you know, we'll figure something out. If we survive the rest of the bullshit coming our way.

[But he feels... hope, now, in a way he didn't before. Knowing that Lup is okay makes winning seem possible.]

[scholiast]

We will.

(She has the same hopeful feeling; her mouth is threatening a smile.) Thank you for telling me that, Taako.

(Of course it doesn't change what will happen between the pair of them and between her and Lup, but it's... a huge weight off her shoulders, to know that Lup will be okay.)

[spellslots]

[It might not change it, but to Taako it makes a difference. It's easier to think about forgiving Lucretia, now that he knows he hasn't lost Lup forever.

But that's enough emotions for the day.]

Oh, and I got dumped. Now you're all caught up.
