He's not bartending tonight, so Bartleby finds a booth and sprawls into it with a groan. He's been 'helping' a friend of his roommate's move into a new apartment. This 'helping' appeared to consist of him carrying boxes back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, while arty, thin, androgynous people stood around and whispered under their breaths "Do you think he's safe?", "Should be in jail," and "Tried to destroy the world".

He's always hated the lie of human forgiveness.

Not your fault, B.

Oh, and also, Don't. Touch. David.

*Loki jumps up*

Oh shit!

*He runs into the staff quarters and comes back a moment later with a neatly wrapped present*

Here. I've been meaning to give it to you, I just haven't seen you in so long.

I don't remember. Things have been a bit hectic.

*Bartleby opens the paper to reveal a hardcover copy of The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide by Douglas Adams.*

Like it?

Are you gonna stay here? Or are you leaving again?

Why Wisconsin? I mean, after a milenia, aren't you sick of that place?

I don't get why you don't just stay here, B. Are you and Charlie back together?

Then why don't you stay, you idiot?

*Loki leans across the table and gently hits him upside the head. He does it with a smile of course*

*Loki rubs his head and smiles as he talks*

I guess that's why we are spending a few days in New Orleans.

Different. I've never been. David took me on a tour the other night. It was nice.

Yeah. It doesn't suck so much for starters.

Unfortunately we didn't go to any airports. Maybe next time.

*He grins at Bartleby*

Well, maybe I will come back to Wisconsin one day and we can watch people at the airports. Though it will be much harder now, with all the security and everything.
