[He saw because he's had over a millenia to practise, he saw because lies are seeing through them in others is his trade.

Loki watches impassively as his memories assult Sherlock, the mortal struggling to handle the impressions filled his senses. He smiles, approving with a hungry grin when the other doesn't break away, but sees.

He lets go and watches patiently as the other stumbles, speechless and in awe. There's a certain high to having that effect, to breaking the barriers of anothers world and there and then he rides the high.]


Yes?

[The smile he gives is all teeth.] You'll have to be more specific, Sherlock Holmes. There is so much out there than you cannot imagine.


How do you feel?

[ Assault is right, and it takes Sherlock longer than he would have liked to recollect himself.

The rush is -- incredible. Disorienting, numbing, but heightened.

And the high is far greater than anything else he has tried. It could easily become an addiction.

His gaze flares. The moment of hesitation -- he should be cautious, he shouldn't be so brash -- passes quickly. There is a possibility of seeing more.

He is driven by the urge to understand and is almost derailed by the question.
]

What -- I'm fine -- [ not like cares much about that - about the daze, his head swimming. ] How much more?

[ hold on. The gears are turning: ] -- You're not human. [ he will perhaps, perhaps, accept the possibility now.

The fact that his world was turning upside down hasn't yet dawned on him.

BLARGH Sorry for the delay~!

[Loki almost hums, he is that satisfied. The transfer sometimes was more than others could take, but to those that could would sometimes find it addictive indeed.

When Sherlock asks about more, Loki laughs and steps away hands raised.]


An entire universe worth of knowledge, Holmes.

[He flashes teeth and he gives Holmes a lean and hungry grin.]

Far from it. You were correct in your estimation, mortal.

I am Loki.

I HAVE ZERO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN <3! I apologize for shitty tags;;

[ an inhale; deep and steadying. his eyes wide, and if he was paying attention to the man in front of him before, the attention doubled.

first, this wasn't a man. not human.

not human was usually impossible. in sherlock's mind, it was still something he couldn't fully accept. but all the facts were there. and after all other possible explanations were isolated, the one that's left, no matter how absurd, must be the truth. isn't that what he thought?

his gaze turns sharp, but there's something of a satisfied smirk that passes quickly.
] Loki. God of Mischief.

[ he was correct in his assumptions. yes, well, that was usually the case but why was he having trouble accepting it now?

he doesn't trust this one. he doesn't trust anyone, but especially someone with a trickster's reputation. but --
]

And yet you were dumped here with all us mortals. Insulted?

Pffft lies. Its glorious. <3

[Loki was at ease under the others scrutiny.

No, not human, not at all. Not even close, but something far more.

His brow raises, his own smile self satisfied.]
I am indeed.

[And he would be more one way or another, but all in good time. Now he had to figure out how to make use of you, dear Sherlock.

It was wise to distrust Loki, one didn't gain the title of Trickster by being honest and without guile.

Loki chuckled. This man was prideful, poking at Loki even now. ]


I have bigger things on my mind than the mortality of my current company, Mr Holmes.
speculates: (. revelations)

I fan girl whenever I see your tags, FYI. it's kind of a problem.

[personal profile] speculates 2012-06-26 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh of course. Sherlock has already understood that his glares do little. Which was honestly fine by him. He will continue it nonetheless.

There's a new curiosity to him, sparked by the other in front of him. He still knows he wants to see what's out there. Although technically, would that help him in his other cases? Perhaps not, but this...this was too interesting to brush off. This was a new challenge. Could he really leave it be now?

And chances are, if he were tempted with more information, he would allow himself to be tempted indeed.

And just what use would Sherlock be to the god?

A blink, a tug of a smirk.
]

Oh, of course, I understand completely. Bigger worldly standing, bigger problems. [ oh yes, he was poking fun at you. Again. Because his depravity knew no bounds. ] Must be difficult.
rockofages: (Loki: pleased grin)

serfg zsugdf,zsugefm,svu W-what?! No! There's no reason to

[A new game with new rules. This Holmes was at least aware of those fables that mentioned him but what would he assuem and what would he know?

None the less, Loki could sense that this man could be lead along to the ends of the none Realms and back were his curiosity suitably teased.
How far could he push this man?

A relaxed shrug, completely at ease.]

Perhaps not what you think, Holmes. Less problems... [His grin becomes almost sharklike in its ferocity.] More oppertunity.

[Good. He liked them bold.]
speculates: ({ on phone)

Yes there is shhh

[ Sherlock had to dig into his memory well enough to recall the mythology. He knew of it simply because once, he had come across it in a case. Somehow, the information hasn't been deleted yet, and apparently, will only be expanded on now.

And the answer to that question, to how far Sherlock can be pushed, is...how far is someone able to push? The prize dangled must be substantial, something he is intrigued by, some puzzle, perhaps. So to the Realms and back...is a surprisingly likely possibility.

Sherlock forces his posture into relaxation as well, hands going to fold behind his back, chin ducked lightly into his scarf. Gaze remains glued to Loki.

Opportunity for what? [ and rather than waiting for an answer, cryptic or straightforward, he offers his own speculation. Naturally. Even if it's a broad one..] To showcase your power?
