Thanks for the tag! @lokimobius
This is a small snippet from a multichapter AU I'm co-writing with @mythical-magik and @kusakichan15. I can't give too many details about it, but suffice to say it is turning out to be a LOT bigger of a project than we first anticipated 😅
So enjoy this little bit from a scene we wrote recently! I promise it won't be TOO long before the fic actually starts coming out 😋
Ravonna is packing up her satchel, as Loki enters the office.
“Mr Laufeyson.” She greets. Dismissing the two hunters that escorted the variant with the wave of her hand. Loki looks around, noticing how it's just himself, the judge and another hunter standing beside her, a hand resting on his time stick.
“I've got a lead on a case, and you'll be helping Mobius by coming along.” He looks at her sceptically.
“Me?” he points to himself, quizzically.
“Yes, you.” She pauses. “Intel gathering.” She elbarates only a little, gesturing to the hunter beside her and then to the variant. “Put on the collar."
“I beg your pardon?" his eyes go wide, looking down at the collar being held out to him. Ravonna sighs and rolls her eyes crossing her arms across her chest, her patience already running thin.
“Do you want to help Mobius or not?" She snaps, and Loki glares at her.
"…Of course I do!” He grumbles back, not appreciating her questioning his loyalties.
"Then put on the collar and follow me." He snatches the collar out of the hunter's hand, rolling his eyes and moving his hair out the way as he fits it around his neck. It whirs to life, and he catches how Ravonna is watching him.
“Happy?” His tone is laced with sarcasm, arms outstretched and she nods, opening a timedoor. “We’re going from here - what about a team?” He glances around at the three of them, half expecting more hunters to step out of the shadows, but seeing no one.
“Intel gathering.” She repeats like it's obvious. He narrows his eyes. Intel gathering. The timedoor opens, and she's waiting for him to step up beside her, the hunter stepping up behind him and nudging him forwards.
“I can walk, thank you very much! You don't have to-”
“Move.” The hunter is holding up the non lethal end of the timestick, ready to nudge him through the timedoor but Loki doesn’t give them a chance. He steps in line with Ravonna and through to the other side.
