[The feed begins hesitantly. As if the communicator is not quite sure whether it wants to work, not work, or just... explode into a bunch of itty bitty pieces, like a rain of confetti. A young child's face eventually becomes clear; small, sort of pretty, and dressed quite nicely, with an overlarge ribbon tied in a bow around his neck. He doesn't

Heh. They've reached a new low, bringing in little kids.

[ Jack smirks at the screen, and speaks sarcastically. ] Hey, do you know any English? It'd be a big help.

[magicalgirloki]

[There's a pause as Loki considers whether to answer, before deciding that there's little harm in it. He doesn't exactly look Japanese after all.]

Yes.

[ethericbit]

[ Oh, he does know English. He wasn't expecting that. ] Oh, uh. Well. Congrats, you've been kidnapped!

[magicalgirloki]

It's not like it's any sort of grand achievement. Over two thousand children are reported missing every day.

And this is only in the United States.

[ethericbit]

It's not just kids here, though. Besides, we're not being held for ransom or anything like that. Haha.

[magicalgirloki]

Very few of those children ever are either. The last guys who kidnapped me tried to feed me to a snake.

[ethericbit]

Really? Jeez.

[ but he does not care about your personal safety so ] So what can you do? Read minds, fly, what?

[magicalgirloki]

[Aw, it's okay, Loki doesn't really care about his personal safety either. Also, he made lots of new friends that day at the reptile house...]

How pedestrian.

[ethericbit]

So you can do something better than that?

[ his interest is peaked ]

[magicalgirloki]

Not as I am now, I can't. [And he means that doubly so-- with the chip and in the form of a child.]

[ethericbit]

So you know about the chips already...? There's people who can take them out, y'know, if you want them back.

[magicalgirloki]

I don't know if I'd be able to convince him to do the surgery without anesthesia. Or the antibiotics after.

video.

[ethericbit]

Oh, him? Yeah. I think there's a couple others who might not care, but they might not be where you are. [ He doesn't seem too happy about that himself, mainly because he wants his chip out, too. ]

video.

[magicalgirloki]

I suppose I can only try to remedy the situation with him, and keep looking around for other alternatives.

video.

[ethericbit]

If you find anybody else, tell me. I need mine out.

video.

[magicalgirloki]

And what would I get in return? [He doesn't do this shit for free, man.]
