I certainly welcome more literary opinions.

[ He probably won't listen to them, but Loki wouldn't stop them either. ]

[hasitsthorns]

He's got some good ones. I might be biased though.

[dothelokimotion]

A little bias is allowed for.

[hasitsthorns]

Only a little?

[dothelokimotion]

Any more and it becomes a vice.

[hasitsthorns]

Vices aren't always a bad thing, right?

[dothelokimotion]

So long as you know how to make them entertaining.

[hasitsthorns]

I like to think I keep things pretty interesting.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His lips curve. ]

Are we discussing your vices then?

[hasitsthorns]

Hhm. Are we? I don't mind!

Control is definitely one. Not necessarily power. I don't care about that, not really, but I do much better calling the shots than being told what to do.

[dothelokimotion]

[ He blinks. ]

That's a vice?

[hasitsthorns]

Well. Sure? It's a bit more abstract than, like, alcohol or internet addiction but it's still- An addiction, I'd say.

I can't get enough of being in control.

[dothelokimotion]

I've never heard it quite in those terms before . . . but it makes sense.

[hasitsthorns]

See? So, there you go! That's my vice.

Just so happens it's a good handful of people's kink to be out of control, so. Works out well for me.

[ Have some shame, woman. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ He chuckles. ]

I can't fault you for that. It is better to work with your flaws than against.

[hasitsthorns]

[ She's glad that she has that effect. ]

I know, right? Some of 'em I can't really work with, but... I try to compromise I guess.

[dothelokimotion]

You should tell me how often that works for you.

[hasitsthorns]

Eeeeeeehhh, like. Fifty-fifty.

[ No. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Wryly. ]

Very convincing.

[hasitsthorns]

[ snrk

It's a pretty undignified sound of amusement from Rose, but- She can't help it. ]

Alright, so, maybe my numbers are a little off. But I don't know. I can't really complain.

[dothelokimotion]

Nonsense. This is a non-judgement zone. Why would anyone stop you?

[hasitsthorns]

They haven't yet, so that's a valid point. Even in Eudio, people were pretty lax...

[dothelokimotion]

Eudio?

[hasitsthorns]

Oh, right- I forget, you're not...

[ 'The Loki that was there,' she almost says. She had known of a couple, talking with one once. ]

You're not one of the ones that came with us from there. Uhm, it was an island. Nicknamed 'cuddle city' and was all about intimacy.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Flatly. ]

Cuddle City.
