[He makes a line for the beer. Funny if he thinks about it, that he's yet to actually buy Jason a beer as was first promised, and instead is bumming them the other way around. It's not even intentional. Although he's since replaced the two bottles they shared in the warehouse, if Jason checks.
Claiming one of the other barstools - heels hooked into the rungs - Cain looks over the apartment.]
You don't have one, but you're staying here with your steady fling, got it.
[Worn-in couch gets a glance.]
So whose place is this, if I'm gonna be crashing in here on the lam someday? [He doesn't plan to, but the offer's presented.]
It's not like that. ( it kind of is but isn't really. jason's not going to argue it any harder, because he knows his argument is weak. and the deeper he gets into it the more the holes are going to start showing. christ. he should probably. either have an(other) actual discussion with loki or bail and move on. )
Loki, and Thor. Hard to miss. Thor's massive--blond hair, blue eyes. Loki's 'bout my height. Dark hair, bright green eyes.
( also that's his couch cain, you get the floor. )
[Likes to talk in riddles, to make Cain work through pieces of conversation, and normally that would frustrate him. He hates mind games. But Loki's never twisted the games enough to piss him off. He wonders if their stint against the UNA will get back to Jason -- well, not that he's got any shame for what he did. They got out alive and saved a family.
Thor isn't one that sounds familiar. He surveys Jason.]
( there's a moment where jason stops. twitches a brow up as he keeps his eyes on cain. stays quiet--before he's bursting out laughing. it's loud, boisterous. genuine. he has to wrap an arm around his midsection, winces as it strains bruised bits. )
Just 'cause I got someone doesn't mean I'm fucking 'em. ( bowery accent just a tad more noticeable. ) Don't worry 'bout it. Doesn't matter.
( it'd be a lie. not that he's against lying to cain, but. )
's more fun to keep you guessing. ( it's obvious enough. loki and jason fuck around with each other all the time via network. they lean in close in public, although there hasn't been much of that lately--given the newer arrivals and what that means for jason himself. ) You can ask 'em, if you want to.
[An eyeroll illustrates his thoughts on that. Cain wouldn't have picked up on it, he's not nosy enough to stalk other people's online threads. That's what Deimos is for.]
Sure thing. 'Hey, you and Jay fucked recently? He said I should ask.' Could send it right now with my brain.
[Smirking, he steals another swallow off the bottle.]
[A moment of concentration passes, spent internally contacting Loki, until he makes an annoyed sound.]
Asshole won't tell me. [He could ask the other one, but Loki's caginess makes him really feel like he's close to something. He could just say no.
Also, though he told Loki he was going to snoop around, he's not going to do it right now. In front of Jason.] Fine, I'll figure it out on my own. Don't really get the fuckin' mystery, but whatever.
( sounds about right. it's one of the things he appreciates about loki: they don't need to directly communicate to know when to leave certain details out, and loki's quick to step in where he's needed in a conversation to steer it off course.
it's cute. )
Makes life a little more interesting. ( but he's moving to stand himself back up, gestures cain towards the door. ) This's all I needed to share. You know where to go, now.
[All right, fine. He'll let it go. Draining the rest of the beer, he dumps the bottle into a nearby can for recycling.] Got it. Just in case the cops are onto me.
[It's a joke, but not necessarily without a grain of truth. Cain flashes one last smirk and gives a little salute, then he's out the door.]

Noisy, both of 'em. And stronger than me.

So you're not? That's a waste. [Of Jason, or his mysterious 'other'? Who knows.] So you're not gonna tell me which one it is?

( he has a feeling loki would come up with a funny as hell answer. thor, on the other hand--has the tendency to be a bit more blunt.
but cain did say he was familiar with loki, so jason assumes that's where he's going first. either way, it'd be amusing. so. )
Let me know what you get.
