“hmm.” Loki mused, poking at his greens a little. “they’re really too similar. Stark and Reed.” he admitted. “far too similar.” he shook his head. “Reed needs to take vacations before he has a mental breakdown, forgets his moral sense and then tries to take over new York.” ah, so there it was. The truth. Loki didn’t hate Reed because Reed was a bit of a dick. Loki hated Reed because Reed reminded Loki of himself. A little too much. “you have no idea how fucked up I am.” Loki admitted, looking very amused. “or maybe I’m just fucked I general.” he mused before chuckling as he put on his best ‘i’m smarter than you’ voice. “Steph’s Power is generated through earth science that works on her every cell constantly. Where it to ever run out of power she would revert back to her original form, either slowly or very quickly, I’m not sure which. Her’s is a fabricated alteration and a temporary one, technically. Reeds powers where not actually created by the genetic storm you went through but rather his own mutation kicking in to protect him. The ‘space stuff’ that struck you did not alter his genetics but rather kick started his own mutation. Your powers on the other had are on a cellular level as the void magic entered you, altering your body o a base level and infusing every cell with magic turning you into something other than human. My powers come from my genetic base, I was born with them.” he admitted, looking amused. “your powers have rendered you much closer, genetically, to a dwarf or an Aesir than to human.” he admitted as he took a bite of steak. He was aware Johnny had been intending to make a very bad joke, but Loki had actually known the answer and he really did like to show off.
