[ As one of the people injured in this whole "test", one can imagine Desmond's first reaction is to want to strangle something. It just infuriates him. Everyone, not just Loki, has been messed with. And it's just not something that is going to sit well with him. He looks like hell, but that doesn't stop him from glaring at the video feed. ]

What the fuck is wrong with you?!

[shrewd_doc]

[ A smirk. ]

The real question should be what is wrong with you? Is your sight failing?

[milesawayfrom]

[ He grits his teeth and glares. ] I don't need it to know that you're out of your fucking mind!

What's the point in bringing us here, then getting us all killed?

[shrewd_doc]

I do believe my mind is all here. I do enjoy quite a show, of course. What would your friends think of you, this ancestor of many, yet, can't even get through this without an injury?

[milesawayfrom]

Good to know we're just entertainment for you. [ Offscreen, his fists curl. Oh, he wants to just. She's not allowed to--fuck. ]

[shrewd_doc]

You really are. Soaring from buildings, saving the innocent. You're superman, but not. In my eyes, and probably every ancestor, you're a failure Desmond Miles. Not even the Templars would take you in, a wounded little puppy.

[milesawayfrom]

Superman's a jerk.

[ It's sarcasm and wit, his defensive responses are a go. She's hit way too close to home. She knows way too much. About his ancestors, the Templars, hell. She probably is a Templar. Part of him wants to believe she's wrong. He's learned from his ancestors. Ezio even made him a master assassin. But, still, she's---wait, didn't she say weapons? Things returned that were supposed to be returned. There's only one other thing he could think he would have on him that would be returned after his sight, and his feet feel heavy. Shit, he hopes like hell that's not in this damn city.

He shoves aside all the feelings rising up at what she's said. They're not forgotten; they're still bumping around in his head. ]

Sounds like you know a lot of how the Templars think. I'm starting to think you are one.

[shrewd_doc]

At least Superman never let people down. Not like you, at least.

[ She laughs. ] So close, little grasshopper, so close.

[milesawayfrom]

You realize people rely more on Batman than Superman, right?

[ He raises an eyebrow. ]

[shrewd_doc]

Agreed. But you're no where near close to Batman. It's like comparing you to Altair-- not even close. Comparing you to Superman is just trying to lessen the blow for you.

[milesawayfrom]

You don't even deserve to say Altair's name. Got it? You keep my ancestors out of this.
