[Backdated to 8/26 and in regards to this.]

Tommy? You need to get on the network right now. There's a kid Loki who says he knows me and is one of my allies after doing something terrible. I'm not kidding.

Loki? Isn't that dude a lady right now?

[He squints. Loki is after his timeline.] I never heard nothin' about you teaming up with Loki.

Edited 2013-08-29 20:57 (UTC)

What? I don't know, I just know he's not a kid from when I'm from. And not yours, either...

This is weird. Why would I team up with Loki? Why would you guys let me team up with Loki?

We're. [He makes a frustrated noise.] Kinda not a team right now. Where I'm from.

So I dunno if you teamed up with him or not.

...Tommy, I... [He breathes out.] I know I told you I don't want to know the future, for what happens with me. But is it just me that feels like things go downhill after you broke us out?

There's so much that doesn't make sense, and I'm not asking you to tell me, I just. Do you get it?

[You can't see the face he's pulling, but you can probably hear the uncomfortable finger drumming and irritation.]

I don't want to tell you what happens. Just. Stay like you are, okay?

[Oh, Tommy. You just answered his question. Billy is silent for a moment, and while he can't see his nodding, he's doing it.]

Okay. I told Loki... uh, kid Loki? Not to say anything either, but I mean. Seriously, it's Loki, how did that one happen, you know?

[Him and his big mouth. He realises he's let on more than her probably should have, and huffs.]

I seriously dunno. I know it weren't my idea.

Well it wasn't mine! [Pause.] Uh... I guess it was mine, actually, I wouldn't team up with him if it wasn't my idea.

...This is seriously going to affect my ever actually getting into the Avengers.

Because Avengers keep track of how many of their members worked with sociopaths.

Tony Stark does, here, and he invi-- [Whoops, should have told him that sooner. Or not mentioned it. Probably not mentioned it.]

[There's just silence for a few moments.]

Are you seriously talking to that asshole?

[You're a big, strong dog, a big, strong dog...]

Yeah, I am. He called up a meeting for the Avengers, and he said I could go. We talked a little bit about everything. I think we're okay.

[There's another pause.]

And you didn't invite me.

[Another pause in return.]

I didn't think you wanted to be invited. He invited everyone, I thought...

I'm sorry.

[He was mostly kidding Billy. But he's glad you're being so apologetic.]

Yeah, well next time you go to a Avengers thing, you're taking me whether you want to or not. I've been here the longest.

I don't mind taking you, or you taking me, or anything like that! I just wasn't sure if you wanted to go, but now I know, and if there's a meeting and you don't know about it, I'll make sure you do. And then you can get there faster then me, okay?

[That's a real apology right there.]

[This all sinks in, but Tommy picks out on one specific thing.]

I'm not carrying you if you can fly.

I didn't say you had to carry me! I meant, like... if you hear about it first, you can drag me along, and vice versa.
