"Okay, Mister. You DO NOT get to boss me in my own car!" I say, pointing a finger at him. "I am gonna go on a guess and say that was Thor, and her is after you. I can call him over here."
“Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things.”
I burst out laughing not because she is threatening me, but because she said 'her' referring to Thor,"I- I," am having trouble speaking due to laughter," You are correct please don't turn me in or stop the car again and please sway a little so you look drunk and he will no longer be suspicious.."
I hit the accelorator and the car speeds up, I drive around 90 MPH now, and yet, I dont care. I role all the windows down. "Get ooutta the floor boards now, Loki. Told you that you were fake."
“Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things.”
"Oh chill. And if I did, its not like anyone would care." I say, only slowing a notch or two. I look over at him, from his black hair, to his sharp cheekbones.
“Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things.”
"Wait you liked Link?", I raise an eyebrow and turn back into Link and start fake crying, "W-W-wait y-yo-you L-like p-peop-ple w-who st- s-stutter?" I turn back to me,"And trust me people would care you seem okay I am sure Zain's hands would miss you, and his pants would miss the coffee stains.."
"So? And I dont wanna be laughed at because of it, liking Link. Its complicated how I grew up but i'll shorten it. Mother died when I was born father blamed me and beated me." I turn on the heater, not looking at Loki.
“Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things.”
"I am sorry I am Loki after all, I have my own issues with family and I try to turn everything into a joke because some things are easier to laugh at..." I look out the window turning into Link, it is easier to feel weak as a mortal when you don't need to be strong, witty, bold and most of all dignified.
