[ Lips pursing when he doesn't get a reply for over ten minutes, he issues another message while looking really weird in a queue for a latte. Green runes dance over his phone like the matrix, earning him even more odd looks than his outfit deserves. ]
This is all a bit much, isn't it? Well, at least you're not strapping me to the walls of your workshop anymore when I drop in, I suppose there's some comfort in there still being solid floors in this city despite your determination not to talk to me.
I would like to see your new den of electrics, when you've it up and running. [ Chattering to himself as he walks and sips his drink, he looks up at the blue sky. A small smile indents a corner of his lips. ] I will even promise not to touch anything that looks boring.
[ Since he's fairly sure his messages are getting through, he sporadically sends more throughout the day. The next one comes after he's had some thought in the shower, water hissing in the background before being turned off. He's getting quite good at impacting his track-hack spell now, doing it with a wave as he towels down. ]
So if this isn't a Team Magic thing where just Stephen and I have to work together to break free of this realm, if all the other Avengers arrive is there going to be some sort of get-together? Do you guys do that? Huddle up? I don't know, I'm usually the one being huddled about, I assume, but otherwise how do you all make any plans for things?
Have you done anything with my map, by the way? I think I'm safe in saying you didn't come over to ogle it and leave things there. Is there anyone else worth talking to about interdimensional travel other than me and Strange?
Oh, shit, where's my pomade?
[ He has to blowdry his hair, sorry for the noise before the message cuts off. ]
[ why does he get the impression that loki is just going to keep sending him messages until he responds back?
he could keep ignoring him, but he brought up the one topic that holds any modicum of interest for him right now. pick up the phone, loser. he's calling. ]
[ Staring at the phone for five seconds like he's debating not answering, but he does. Smirking. He has the audacity to sound curious as to whom the number might belong, since it hasn't called him directly before. ]
I think he's busy doing Strange-things, whatever the Sorcerer Supreme ... or the former ... does when he has too much time on his hands in a new dimension crawling with magical energies.
You could talk to David Alleyne, he never stops. I suspect he told me a great deal but I zoned out.
[ he actually still needs to speak to josh and david since it seems they are reluctant to reach out to him first. ]
So, that's a no then. [ he doesn't sound impressed. ]
I did make some modifications to your map. [ he adjusted it to suit his needs better as well as interfaced it with data and detailed visuals of each earth. ] But I'm no closer to figuring all of this out since the last time we spoke. [ now he just sounds tired. ]
[ he has a quip to say to that, but he has enough tact not to speak it out loud. is this what we call character growth? ]
I've had a long day. [ it's probably a good idea for him to cut this conversation short before he makes any further uncouth comments. ] I'm closing this line, for the record. If you want to continue shouting into the void, then help yourself.

I wasn't aware that you were working with Strange. Did either of you learn anything new?

Surprised you didn't make a quip about Frost Giants melting, to be honest.
