[CALL] UN: Moosewithoutsqurriel

[Sam appears on camera looking deeply confused, but not all that freaked out]

So that's the last time I just toss a phone in a drawer and ignore it, because I think grabbing it just saved my life. Long story, but I was about to get shot in the face when I hit the button that  said TRANSPORT. Now I'm not sure where I am, but it looks like a scene out of Indiana Jones or something...I think.

Dean...Cas anyone?

Fear not, I'm not the smiting sort. Thor, now. That's more-or-less his entire schtick.

[notarambler]

Yeah I was a little worried when I picked up his hammer back in my world he might actually smite me for that. But he didn't so I figured he was okay with it.

[story_and_teller]

[Loki blinks at him, and then gives him another look, a more intense peering than before, something like interest glittering in her eyes.]

You lifted Mjolnir?

[notarambler]

Yeah there was this dragon and my brother and I needed magical artifacts and seriously please don't smite me.

[story_and_teller]

[Loki... just laughs.]

No, no; if you can use the hammer, by all means. 'Tis no skin off my back, so to speak.

[notarambler]

Okay good. I never know when dealing with gods if they are going to get mad or not.

[story_and_teller]

Contrary to popular belief, we're not all unreasonable thugs.

[notarambler]

Yeah I get that I just have been super unlucky to meet the ones that are. Seriously the Christian God...huge jerk.

[story_and_teller]

Oh, you've actually met him? He's not shown his face in my universe in... ever, that I can tell.

[notarambler]

Met and helped.....my brother and I had to deal with his sister actually too.

[Sam sighs]

Still don't know if Dean made it out of that okay.

[story_and_teller]

Dean being your brother...?

[notarambler]

Yeah older brother. It's just him and me now.

[story_and_teller]

I could find out for you, if you liked.

[Don't trust that smile, Sam. Don't trust it any further than you could throw it and the woman it's attached to.]

[notarambler]

[Sam isn't a Winchester for nothing he looks her right in the eye and says]

And what would you want in exchange? There is always a price with gods.

[story_and_teller]

[Loki leans back, and favours him with a broad - even approving - grin.]

What is knowledge of your brother worth to you?

[notarambler]

[Sam considers this and words his next sentence carefully as to not make any promises without realizing it.]

Given he went up against God's sister and didn't expect to come out the other side all I need to know is if he's alive. What would you want in exchange for telling me that?

[story_and_teller]

[Loki clicks her tongue, and wags a finger.]

That still doesn't tell me what that is worth to you.

[notarambler]

Name your price and I'll tell you if it's worth that or not. I've done enough deals not to name something off the top of my head. I'm a Winchester not a dumbass.

[story_and_teller]

[She laughs at that.]

I know not what you have to offer.

[She might be lying.]

[notarambler]

Yeah unless you've had a power down grade I don't buy that. Loki is the god of lies, so either put up or shut up. And don't get flashy either I've talked to God himself and I'm not about power and glory.

[story_and_teller]

[Loki snorts inelegantly, and shakes her head, still laughing.]

I'm not the flashy sort. Not anymore. How about this, then: A truth for a truth. One question, one answer. Does that suit you?

[notarambler]

[Sam considers that and nods.]

That's a fair deal.

[story_and_teller]

Excellent! [She claps once, and her grin fairly sparkles.]

You first then, young man.

[notarambler]

{Sam takes a long time to consider how to phrase his question and when he does it's simple and direct.]

Did my brother Dean Winchester survive his encounter with Amara, God's sister?

[story_and_teller]

[Loki steeples her fingers, and tilts her head slightly, before smiling faintly.]

Yes.
