[Loki's roller-skating his way home from conning drones out of groceries, because the refrigerator was getting empty, when he spots Dr. Spengler. Ordinarily, he would just state on by. However, the odd little device the bespectacled man is holding just starts going wild as Loki approaches. It's not enough to stop Loki, but he does give Spengler a curious glance as he coasts by.]
[Yeah, Egon is so oblivious to his surroundings and so focused on what he's doing that he's taking no notice of the strange stares he's getting from anyone.]
[...as Loki skates away, he notices that the device's whirring slows down when he moves further away. Curious, Loki stops -- and approaches Spengler from behind, listening for the clicks.]
[Egon's noticed the change in the device as well and he begins moving around from side to side to figure out which direction it's coming from. Soon he's turned around and facing the man who's following him. Without a word, he steps right up to him and the meter goes nuts, the whirring now a constant high-pitched buzz.
He gets right to the point.] Excuse me, but you're not human. Am I correct? [Unless the guy was possessed...]
[If only he hadn't had the skates on -- Loki could have dodged around Spengler, keeping the other from seeing him. However, he couldn't muffle the grind of the eight tiny wheels. Ah, well. His scarred lips pull into a grin.]
[The groceries are heavy, and Loki wants to get home. However, he wants to find out what a Class 7 and PKE are. He looks at Dr. Spengler sideways, considering.]
All right. But for every answer I give you, I expect one in return. A question for a question. Deal?

As far as race, species, or another category of existence that might be appropriate, what would you call yourself?

I? I am a giant among gods. My father was lightning. My mother was a needle. What do you think that makes me?

... Sounds like a selection from Norse mythology.

[He just likes knowing that humans recognize him, okay. LOKI IS KIND OF A BIG DEAL AND LIKES BEING REMINDED THAT HE'S FAMOUS.]
