[ Otherwise he wouldn't blab. He has some morals. ]
Tim nightlights as Red Robin, or just Robin. The Batman is his leader and his brothers are the Red Hood and Nightwing. I'm telling you this so you don't injure any of them if a fight starts or so you can protect them on my behalf, for Tim's sake, as they are only mortal and enjoy flinging themselves into danger.
I suppose you could view my sleeping with his underling as vindictive ... [ Loki would do something like that if he had no emotions attached to Tim, but. ] But that's not how it really played out.
I like Tim. He's wonderfully clever and frightfully stupid.
It will not be a lasting thing. [ He has known that for a while. Tim will never be satisfied with just Loki, and that's fair. ] Though I shall always think of him fondly, even when our time together comes to an end.
[ She meets his gaze. And in his eyes, she sees many faces— the faces of every iteration of Loki she has ever met. The Loki who is her brother. The Loki who is her sister. The spirit of a departed Loki who was sent to her in her time of need. The young Loki who taught her about video games and viral internet posts. The Loki who employs her, and drags her along to his lavish galas. The stories of the many Lokis she has never met, but hears tales of all the same.
She loves them all, in different ways. But she loves this Loki the most. He is her Loki. They have shared time together that none of the other Lokis can lay claim to. She hopes they will continue to share that time for much, much longer.
But even if they don't, she will remember the time they did share fondly. ]

Understood.
[ There's just one thing, a name on Loki's lost that triggered a distant memory. ]
The Batman... Do you mean—? [ Insert vague dabbing motion. ]

When I first arrived in this world, there were many "memes" on the web, of a hero known as the Batman, who would gesture thusly with his cape.

I thought Batman was flirting with me once, but instead of a kiss he snubbed me in the next breath.

Was this before or after you started wooing his underling?

Do you wish to speak of yourself or would you rather I didn't barter you for it? I don't want to peel the details out of you like arrow-shafts.
