003: Video

[hulkbusted]

[It's after the night siren and Bruce is looking frazzled, irritated, and... like he forgot that he'd been getting ready to sleep, since he's wearing boxers and glasses and apparently nothing else. As he settles his NV, a pair of mice skitter across the desk he's set it on. There are little movements in the background and Bruce has to stop and hop around, cursing under his breath as something apparently runs over his foot.]

Okay, look, the Darkness thing I'm up on, but is it common for random objects like, say, my pillow to turn into mice?

Such an accusation. It might be mere coincidence.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

Like the scorpion?

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

But I was there when I did that.

If I could, without being in your presence, turn objects around or on your person into other objects, well, how interesting that would be.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

I'm not hearing a direct denial.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

I should think you ought to be more impressed at animating something that was formerly inanimate than determined to have me admit it to be my doing.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

I'm not impressed and you aren't getting a show. Impress me by gathering scattered rodents into a comfortable pillow.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

[Just the flattest look.] You might try asking them nicely.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

I don't know why I'm even bothering to talk to you. Bag of cats is multiversal.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

I suppose a bag of cats would catch a pillow of mice. If you had one.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

[Touche]

Isn't it after your bedtime?

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

No.

But it is obviously past yours. Perhaps you ought to ask those mice to ah- assemble. I suggest being polite. They are rather sensitive.

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

[Flat look right back at you.]

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

[Crosses his arms and arches a brow.] They are fully capable of hiding in your walls and breeding.

[He presses his lips together in a thin line before taking a deep breath through his nose, letting it out in a slow sigh]

Fine.

[He turns his back to the camera to face the room.] Please return to my bed and your well-respected place as my pillow.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

[And not a damn thing happens.]

Perhaps they are French mice and do not speak English. [Just the most serious face.]

Permavideo

[hulkbusted]

[Bruce disconnects. He has mice to catch.]

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

[He's just going to laugh.

Bet you had a bag of cats now, Bruce.... Loki, out!
