[Jeez, Loki, you're completely unable to keep your hands to yourself, are you?

Normie approaches Loki holding two plates--one with coleslaw, one with a bunch of cookies.]

Spiking the punch? A little cliche, don't you think?

[Offers the plates to the god of mischief.]

Sorry, no banks were robbed to purchase this food.

The cliches are cliches for a reason. [ Loki counters easily, as if he's unsurprised with Normie's approach. his inhumanly green eyes dart between the two plates before fixing on his face. ]

And I'm dreadfully disappointed in you. A few acts of robbery always keep those entitled mortal banks in line.

[ it's a joke. he doesn't rob banks—he robs casinos. kind of.

he puts a cookie in his mouth. ]

Hello, Norman.

I'm surprised anyone actually put punch out, given said cliche.

[Gives Loki the ol' Osborn grin.]

Yes, but then that would hurt my bottom line too, and I can't say I've ever been one for the whole "Robin Hood" thing.

[Ugh he can't believe he just said that, even as a joke. The smile fades into something a heck of a lot more natural.]

Hello, Loki.

[ by the Norns, that is the ol' Osborn grin. Loki eyes him with mild curiosity as he chews.

the plate of cookies gets discarded somewhere near the punch, and Loki replaces a cup of it in Norman's hands. ]

That just begs me ask—just what are you one for, then? Parties, I hope. Midgardian celebrations of patriotism and the red, white and blue of freedom.

[Hey, it's hereditary apparently. Plus it's fun to do when he's trying to freak people out.]

I can be for parties. [Takes the cup from Loki, then sniffs it to see just how much alcohol he put in there.] Mostly I've been for, well, for lack of a better word, justice. I built things for superheroes.

[Satisfied that the drink probably won't completely waste him, he takes a sip.]

...You do know I was joking originally, right?

[ the drink is strong, but not intolerable, but then again anything in punch usually smells exactly like punch. there were horror stories to be told about "jungle juice" in college dorms somewhere, surely. ]

Justice ... [ he says as if he's contemplating the meaning of the term. ] Well, a loaded term that would roll up well with the joke, don't you think?

[ it doesn't fall as accusatory, but more curious. Loki's testing the waters a little bit. ]

[If only Normie ever went to college.]

Only if I only believed in justice for Wall Street.

The New Warriors are a little bit more... street level.

Street level as in Young Avengers street level?

[ Loki asks from over the rim of his plastic cup. ]

I can't say as I've never heard of them. I don't think my universe ever had them.

Unless you're referring to the next generation of the Avengers, but they're just... the Avengers.
