[trickor]

It might.

[captainkink]

You don't know that.

[trickor]

[flat]

Allow me my fruitless hopes.

[captainkink]

It's not a hope, it's a sentence you've given yourself.

[trickor]

[chuckles, humorless]

Oh no, Captain. Not me.

[captainkink]

Bullshit.

[trickor]

You question my word?

[captainkink]

No, Loki. I'm questioning your logic.

[trickor]

It isn't a matter of logic.

[captainkink]

Then what is it, Loki? In case you haven't forgotten, I'm mortal. I'm a Captain. I get that all this time, I thought I was avoiding the idea of dying, but I can't do that anymore.

[trickor]

I can't forget your humanity. Do you not think I would if I could?

[captainkink]

Then accept it!

[trickor]

No.

[trickor]

[watches, eyes narrow]

[captainkink]

[he doesn't say anything, walking slowly]

[trickor]

Where are you going?

[captainkink]

Nowhere. I'm going to walk until I drop. Then I'll wake up and do it again. For every single time I go, I'm going to get up until I can't do it anymore.

[trickor]

Why?

[captainkink]

Because that's the only thing I can do.

Loki, it's the only thing I've got.

[trickor]

[holds out a hand towards]

Come back to bed. Please.

[captainkink]

And then what?

[trickor]

Captain, please.
