Looking Through New Eyes [Sequel to Better Than You]

Things are Getting Heated

          "What exactly is it that you want?" Loki demanded. "I want you to be honest about why you do what you do." "...Liar!" Mobius met his level, standing up. He explained, "All I seek is a deeper understanding of the fearsome God of Mischief. What makes Loki tick?" Things started to get more tense with Loki starting to laugh, "I know what this place is. It's a illusion! It's a cruel, elaborate trick conjured by the weak to inspire fear. A desperate attempt at control. Now, you all parade about as if you're the divine arbiters of power in the universe." "We are," Mobius simply replied back. "You're not! My choices are my own." "You're choice is your won. Good, let's go with that. I think this one is going to fire you up." Changing the holograph, it went to a crowd of people kneeling while Loki spoke to them while walking in his full armor and scepter. This wasn't a surprising scene, "The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power." "Precisely," His voice cracked a bit. "I was...I am on the verge of acquiring everything I am owed, and when I do, it'll be because I did it. Not because it was suppose to happen. Or because you, or the TVA, or whatever it is you call yourself, allow me to. Honestly, you're pathetic, an irrelevance, a detour, a footnote to my ascent." She sighed, "Take a breath Loki, please. Your voice is starting to crack like that act you put on." He sent her a glare that she sent right back to him. 

       "You finished?" Loki looked right back to Mobius. "You're gonna start taking things seriously. If you hadn't picked up the tesseract, you've been taken to a cell on Asgard along with (Y/N) at some point, since she did try to do the same as you." He showed the both of them walking to Odin in chains, bringing up the worst memory that happened during that time. 2 memories actually. This caught Loki's attention as Frigga came into frame, "This is nonsense, more tricks. This never even happened." Both (Y/N) and Mobius answered at the same time, "Not to you." "Look, the TVA doesn't just know your past, we know your whole life, how it's all meant to be. Think of it as comforting." "While it clearly isn't," (Y/N) said to herself. Next was Loki in his cell with Frigga talking with him. "Then am I not your mother?" "You're not." So that's how it started in the first place, now she knows why he was so distraught when she went to visit him. The last line she said was, "(Y/N) misses you dearly" and that made her tear up a bit. It changed once more, "And then the Dark Elves attack the palace, and you think you send them to Thor." What did Mobius just say? 

       Loki gave that monster directions? (Y/N) held back her tears, having a quick flash of seeing Loki in that state when she told him the news. It played out how it went, and coming to Frigga being stabbed (Y/N) jumped a bit and had to stand up. Her hand covered her mouth as some tears went down her cheeks, "Where do you have her? Where is she?" Loki couldn't believe it. He went on, "You're lying, it's not true." "It is true. That's the proper flow of time! It happens again, and again, and again, because it's suppose to. Because it has to! The TVA makes sure of it! (Y/N)?" They both turned to her. She was still looking away from the screen and the both of them, but she nodded. "He is not lying. She was killed right in front of me and Thor as we tried to save her," Her voice was only loud enough to go to a whisper for them to hear. He still didn't believe it, "Where is she?" "Now why don't you tell me, do you enjoy hurting people?" "I don't believe you.."

        "Do you enjoy killing people?" "I'll kill you" "What? Like you did your mother." (Y/N) whipped around to glare at Mobius, that was too far. Loki threw a chair at him that was able to dodge and (Y/N) quickly went to try and pull him back, and they were both sent to their places. Mostly Loki falling on the floor, because it doesn't affect furniture. Mobius added onto it, "You weren't born to be king, Loki. You were born to cause pain and suffering and death with your little dog on a leash behind you." The fuck did he say about me?! "That's how it is, that's how it was, and that's how it'll be. All so that others can achieve the best versions of themselves." The look on his face was heartbreak for (Y/N), since she knew he was already thinking that in the back of his head already. He even looked back at her sad expression as well, the tear stains on her chains and still a bit in her eyes. They stared at each other for a minute before he looked away. Mobius went to help him up, and while grabbing his hand Loki did the typical Loki thing. He stole the remote he used for the collars, doesn't surprise anyone. The door was opened by the same female soldier that brought them both here in the first place. She looked annoyed, "What are you doing?"

        "My job. Is it yours to interrupt?" "We have a situation." He sighed and walked out with her, looking back as a warning to the both of them to not try anything. Sound of the door closing echoed and that led to Loki looking over to (Y/N), "You tried to rule Midgard?" She stood up, "It's a long story, but technically yes. You stole the controls out of his pocket?" He said nothing as he took out the remote to them, pointing it at himself to try and leave her there. She quickly grabbed his arm, pulling him, "You have to take me with you!" "I don't have to do what some quim tells of me!" She exhaled deeply, looking towards the door before smacking him hard. While he was still in the shock of pain, she swept his feet and caught him by the hem of his jumpsuit before he fell to the ground.

      Her look was stern and angry, "And I don't have to listen to a bratty ass bitch's whining. Now you listen, and listen good. I...admire you, but act like a fucking brat and I'll beat you the hell down. There's things you don't know about me, and some you will never know, but the thing you're going to learn now is that I can make you see stars and galaxies with just one punch. I don't need my powers for that! You're taking me with you...got it?" He stared at her and smirked, seeming impressed by her emotion and aura she gave off in just a quick flash. She pulled him onto his feet, "I do need a good right hand~" She rolled her eyes and they were off with a quick click of a button.
