Loki's strength lay in "cheating" with math; this whole "hiding from potential assassins" thing was never in the job description when they first started swindling people's money away.

Cursing was not usual for Loki, but foul language dripped from under their breath in copious quantities. It was how their stress surfaced--stress from both trying to find the elusive people residing on the same hitlist Loki and Talia now inhabited.

Whoever was after them was definitely powerful.

This was their fourth hotel room and fifth pizza (yes, pizzas are appropriate units of measurement), as the last three had all had mail delivered. One envelope, with one piece of paper: the same hitlist as before, but with "Talia and Loki" at the bottom.

Loki leaned back, casually placing the pizza over their eyes. "D'you think we're being hunted 'cause we're giving people heads-up about their impending doom, or 'cause we stole that car from the guy with a broken gaydar?"

Talia did not seem amused by the question, leaning forwards and removing the pizza from Loki's face. "That'll give you pimples."

"Pizza grease! My mortal enemy, here to conquer me--"

BAM.

Loki sat bolt upright, their eyes wide at the sound of the concussive hit of the door. "Holy-"

THUD.

Loki scrambled to their feet, reaching for Talia's arm to drag her up and out the window.

CRASH.

The door succumbed to the efforts of the hostile visitors (who were presumably not here to give flowers or anything that you should give to people that have been saving lives). In came the men from the van (I thought we lost them!), wielding some rather startling weaponry. The well-clothed man from the casino walked in behind them, wearing sunglasses even Loki would later admit were cool.

"Since you two have both committed theft and been working on warning those who deserve to--is that giant New York pizza?"

Loki froze. "... Yes?"

"Oh hell yes." Johnny grabbed a slice, taking a bite out of it. "Anyways, I was going to ask you guys to work for me. You stole my car and watch without me noticing, that's some real skill. And I want that. Fixes my problems with you, keeps you from dying, means you make a healthy paycheck. Thought you might at least entertain the option."

"Uhhh..."

Loki and Talia had a brief, hurried discussion while Johnny ate pizza at his luxury. Finally, the two turned around, ready to give an answer.

"Only if I still get to steal stuff," came Talia's answer.

"And only if I still get to play at cards," said Loki, a smirk playing over their face.

Dear journal;;
I wonder of how Graham would react if I were to confess. Would he like me the same way I do with him? this could possibly ruin our friend ship but, we already are like a couple so it wont change much would it? I mean aside from the uh,, ehm kissing and such. er uh I guess I'll just go for it!

Dear journal;;
I wish I could explain of how I am feeling right now but its complicated. My stomach is fluttering, I feel light headed and I just want to run away and hide. or in a more plain way, I'm nervous. I fear that this may ruin our friendship. but once again I'll have to just go for it. ah I guess i'll have to cut this short. I've got a man to confess to!
-- Elliot Grayson ( 10/17 )

Dear journal;;
Ah my heart is leaping with joy. The man I love, Graham Easton shares the same feelings. Shares the same wild thumping in his heart when He sees me, shares the same excitement of seeing me again, shares a deep love for me.
I cannot wait t spend more time as his boyfriend.
-- Elliot Grayson ( 10/17 )

Dear journal;;
I have little words for this. I thought we shared a love that was stronger than our friendship. what had I done? Why could he not freely express that what I felt wasnt the same? why must he drag this on longer than it should have. Why did he have to make my heart, not just break it but shatter into a million pieces and then throw it into the wind possibly never to be mended again. I should have looked for the thorns on a rose I guess. maybe this was all my fault thinking that we were to ever be more than just the best of friends. Ah well I guess he is just msising out. He will probably never find another that can love him as I can.
