...October 10th...2015 . .

...Ohio, Greensfield .  . . 10:58 PM.  . .

I bolted awake hearing the door being opened.

My bedroom door.

I had blackmailed a hacker to discover my whereabouts at least my other selfs. It turned out the one of this universe died in 2009 due to a missile striking her room at 9:45 PM.  I picked up the bat then get out of bed. I had scammed the hacker enough to get a  flat with a bedroom, living room, restroom, and kitchen. It was a rental apartment. I had even scammed him so much to get back a suit through malicious means.

So I did the invisibility programming myself.

I exited my room holding the bat up in the dark.

"Who is there?" I asked.

I looked to the living room where there is a open door where a man sat inside with his legs propped up  and he is whistling a tune I couldn't quite place. It sounded a lot like the one from the X-Files not the crappy old Hunger Games tone that I one time mistook for the X-Files due to the whistle. I lowered the bat seeing the man's unremarkable familiar resemblance counting his curly dark hair and pale skin.

"Get out of my flat, Loki!"  I shouted.

"So your name is Ivy."

I frowned.

"Who the hell told you that?" I asked.

"I did some snooping of my own." Loki said. "Faked your death .  .  . Twice. That is very impressive."

"I am not the Ivy of this world." I said.

Loki turned his head toward me.

"That was sarcasm." Loki said.

"I can't really tell,"  I said. "Having Aspergers sucks for understanding figure of speech."

"A learning disability." Loki said.

Thank god he actually knows  what it means.

"Correct." I said. "Now, you should really leave."

". .  . I will not leave because you told me so." Loki said.

Funny thing, characters do tend to do things even after they say "I will not *Insert something* because you told me to." Kind of hypocritical because they do it afterwards. I have seen that complaint on a story that was talking about all the cliches.  I sighed  lowering my head with a grunt. God did I have to be the one who encountered THE GOD OF MISCHIEF and be his INTERESTING STICK. Primus does it suck to be me. Normally the interesting stick Loki finds would be someone I am writing not actually being that person.

I raised my head up toward the Frost Giant.

"Loki, I am not in the mood for any of your tricks and I am pretty tired." I said.

"You are wide awake to me." Loki said. "What do you want out of faking your death?"

"I didn't intent for that to happen," I said. "It just happened. I also just happened to peg your interest."

Loki slid out of the window letting his feet landing on the floor.

"You are on fire." Loki said.

I leaned against  the bat.

"And I am in no position for relationships."  I said.

"You have a very dirty mind, you know that?" Loki asked.
