While the jab about being the less favored son didn't hit Loki as hard as it once would have, damn him, Fenrir had a point about Thor being the type of oaf who would feel that he 'had no other choice' than to give up the bridle and reins in exchange for a few of his people. What do you want, Fenrir? In exchange for your brother's freedom and Oliver's disposal, name your price." He spat, attempting to bargain.

He'd left Sleipnir alone for a moment. The safe house wasn't large and Oliver had sharp ears. He would have heard an escape attempt. When he returned, he'd changed into a new standard button up that he'd found in a closet, one that wasn't blood stained, and his hair was less disheveled. He no longer looked like he'd been put through a meat grinder. With a casual sigh, Oliver sat down on a leather seat around 5 feet away from where Sleipnir had been discarded on the floor, his icy eyes looking down at his pet. "Comfy?" He asked with a smile, and it was strange how sincere the question sounded, all things considered. "Or thirsty? Hungry? I don't even remember what they fed you back at our base. Did they feed you?" He asked suddenly, his eyes lighting up a bit, as if intrigued by the possibility that Sleipnir had been starved without his knowledge. "Can't recall. I know that I told hem not to feed your mother, but I never asked them to restrict your meals. Apologies if they made an assumption about that." He drawled, this time not managing to sound very sincere at all. Sleipnir hadn't died. So, it wasn't as if he had anything to actually apologize for.

Fenris turns towards loki instantly, teeth bared in an obvious silent snarl. "What i want is the one thing you can't give me. I want me Gleipnir gone. My eternal shackles. But you can't exactly do that now can you?" He snarled back in response, teeth bared. "So if i have to be imprisoned, if hela has to be imprisoned. Then so does your favored son." He hissed out once more before turning once more to leave.

"Not like you really care now do you? You'd no doubtedly not feed me or give me water just to see how long it would take to weaken me then use it as an incentive so i'd be forced to follow your orders. Or it'd be poisoned or drugged. Whats that midguardian saying? Can lead a horse to water but can't make them drink?" Sleipnir retorted bitterly in response.

No, he couldn't give that to Fenrir. Even if Loki wanted to free his son from his shackles, he didn't have that ability. And he had nothing else to bargain with. He'd tried everything he could think of. So, with not much other option, when Fenrir turned once more to leave, Loki gave a twist of his hand and a near countless number of clones materialized in front of Fenrir, blocking his way. The tips of his fingers sparked with chartreuse light. "I can't let you harm Sleipnir any further. If you want me to admit it, then fine. My bond is strongest with Sleipnir and I will hurt you if you don't have him released." Loki snarled in warning, though he was well aware that the odds of him being able to overpower Fenrir on his own were slim. He would certainly try, though, and hopefully succeed. There were few other options left to him.

Oliver blinked, furrowing his brow slightly a he stared down at Sleipnir in what appeared to be an odd cross between mock and genuine confusion. "I wouldn't starve you." He replied, as if the notion was entirely baffling. "Goodness, no. I'd drug you in a heartbeat if I had the supplies, yes, but that I could accomplish by injection." He explained, as if the proper way to drug a person was the most basic knowledge in the world. He leaned forward slightly, resting his elbows on his kneecaps. "I don't need you weak and damaged. I just need you controlled, and your brother already has that sorted. The dog's gone out to fetch what I need right now. You'll be my puppet soon." He hummed. "What fun." Oliver just had to wait for Fenrir to bring him the reins he spoke of, and he could be a patient man when needed. "You know, I didn't starve Loki for incentive, or to weaken him, or for any particular reason really." He told Sleipnir in casual tone, leaning back once more. "I just wanted to." He admitted.

Fenris looks at the multitude of clones, head tilting side to side slightly before smiling. "And you don't think impeding and slowing me right now isn't hurting him? And its not I who is doing it? Leaving a bored Ollie all alone with Sleipnir and all. And you're distracting me from doing my task. Which means you are the one causing sleipnir to suffer who knows what kind of harm right now? Not very fatherly of you." He retorted with a cruel smile on his lips.

"So if thats the task we are to play, then so be it." He stated, stepping aside so to sit on a closed trash can and cross his arms at his chest. "Then we can play this waiting game. Lets just see how long you're willing to risk slippy's health by detaining me." He concluded in an almost bored tone.

Sleipnir just glared at oliver, huffing. "Oh yes, because that makes me feel so much better." He stated in a sarcastic and spiteful manner, rolling his shoulders slightly as He presses back against the wall to try and keep distance between him and oliver. He really didn't want to be anywere within this humans reach.

It was a lose lose situation. Loki didn't want Sleipnir left alone with that horrible man, but he also didn't wish for Fenrir to get his hands on the reins, items which would effectively make Sleipnir a thrall to Oliver. Gritting his teeth together in obvious frustration, he didn't say another word and simply vanished, taking his clones with him. As soon as he was seemingly gone, however, a tiny dagger with glowing seidr wrapped around it's blade tore through the air and sunk itself into Fenrir's arm. It was a small blade. Not enough to do any true damage, but it's purpose wasn't to kill or maim.

Pondering over their options for the evening, Oliver considered simply locking Sleipnir up until Fenrir got back, though that was not only rather boring, but it would be a potential waste of time that could be spent actually accomplishing something. "Let's play a game, shall we?" Oliver proposed, his icy gaze still watching Sleipnir as he attempted to retreat to the other side of the room. "A game of choices and stakes, if you will. I'm going to ask you a few questions, and then I'm going give you a choice between two options. You get to decide which option is more favorable. A refusal to play only raises the stakes, making each outcome even more... unpleasant. Sounds reasonably fair, yes?" He asked, though he didn't wait for an answer before proceeding. Fenrir had told him that he shouldn't go after the serpent. The big one. But the thing is, Oliver didn't just want it. He needed it, or at the very least something of similar value to HYDRA. It was the only way in which he could regain some true standing within his rank. A way to polish his tarnished reputation. "Option one is that you can tell me how to catch and control your brother, the serpent." He told Sleipnir, hoping that he would have more knowledge about Jormungandr than Fenrir did. "Option two. I take Loki, instead." He drawled, figuring that returning HYDRA's lab rat to them would also earn him some points with his superiors. It wouldn't be as impressive as the serpent, but it certainly wouldn't hurt. "So, what will it be, hm? Your brother or your mother? Or should we up the stakes?"

Fenris smiles in amusement when loki vanished, only for it to be wiped away quickly at the dagger in his arm, making him hiss instantly, baring teeth in a dreaded snarl as he lifted a hand to pull it from his arm and toss it to the ground, then immediately cover the injury. He snarled a bit more, heating up his hand to try and seal the wound closed as he gets up and moves to leave quickly. He needed to accomplish his task, guess he'd go pay thor a visit then.

Sleipnir glares even more at this, shaking his head. [b]"You're a fool to think anyone or anything can control jormungandr. And a fool to think loki will fall into your hands as well. I'd sooner be haunches on the serving table then play your stupid little game." He snarled back in spite, glaring at oliver before twisting himself around so to turn onto his side and press against the wall, then he'd at least not have to look at the human any longer.

Hidden from sight, Loki watched as the blade hit it's mark and the seidr he'd placed on the dagger embedded itself into Fenrir's skin. Even with the wound sealed, that magic would run through Fenrir's veins for a short time. An attachment to the much stronger and far more vast amount still running through his own. In a way, he could trace Fenrir now. By reaching out with his seidr and attempting to connect with the fragment he'd placed on Fenrir, he could find him again. And that was quite a big deal, seeing as Fenrir would eventually have to return to Oliver and Sleipnir. In the meantime, he just needed to figure out how to free Sleipnir once he got there. Oliver would be absolutely no problem whatsoever. He was only one human, after all. Fenrir was the primary concern.

"Higher stakes, it is." Oliver hummed, a slight smirk playing at his lips. "You tell me how to catch and control the serpent..." He said, repeating the first option. "Or... I take Loki, hand him over to our labs, and force you to watch as they leech the magic from his veins." The HYDRA agent told Sleipnir, adding an extra ounce of horror to the second option. "The Jotun nearly passed out last time before they stopped draining him. I wonder what would happen if he passed out and they just... kept going." He mused, tapping his fingers on the leather armrest. "And don't kid yourself. You're the perfect bait. I'd be surprised if that thing wasn't already trying to find you. I captured him once. I can do it again."

Fenris shakes his head, giving the now seared closed wound one more look before finally taking on his wolf form and was back out onto the streets once more, heading for New asgard.

Sleipnir huffed and merely turned his head away. "A snake can't trap a snake." He retorted with a grumble, refusing to give into oliver's demands. Long as oliver can't find loki and all, then loki was fine, and thus so would jormungandr.

Loki considered heading back to the SHIELD base, though he decided against it only a moment later. Not yet. Tanis had disappeared at some point. He hadn't really noticed when, with his mind too preoccupied with other things. To be perfectly honest, his uneasy alliance with SHIELD wasn't really working, anyway. No one trusted him, which he really didn't blame them for, and he didn't trust them, either. New Asgard was appealing at times, but Thor had never once reached out with an invitation, which Loki took to mean that he and his kids were unwelcome. Fine. Once Loki had Sleipnir back, he would have to figure out where to go next. And he would get Sleipnir back. Loki's mind trailed toward what Fenrir had said about Oliver wanting Jormungandr next, though he shook such thoughts away. Jormun would be safe. No one could control or contain him, and Jormungandr only ever seemed to listen to him. He'd be safe.

Oliver smiled a bit. "Are you sure about that?" He asked, though he wasn't expecting an actual answer from Sleipnir. It was clear that the Hydra agent disagreed with him. After staring at his captive for a moment or two, the gears turning in his head, Oliver abruptly stood and took a few steps toward the shapeshifter. "You're an interesting thing." He sighed, giving Sleipnir a slight nudge with the front edge of his boot once near enough. "I would have thought that you'd care just a bit more about your own kin. Enough to talk, anyway." He mused. "It's just a pity that I want you in one piece. I could've gotten the information out of anyone else by now." The agent admitted, and he wasn't really exaggerating. He was far more adept at prying information from people with other less chatty means, and it usually didn't take long once he began. "You know, maybe that's what I'll do with your mother." He said in a mockingly pleasant tone, still attempting to use Sleipnir and Loki's bond against the shifter. Trying to deeply unsettle him. "If you won't tell me how to control the serpent, then I'll have to take the information from another source, and while I don't wish to damage you beyond repair, HYDRA certainly doesn't need him in one piece."

Sleipnir huffs before smiling and chuckling, shaking his head. "You're an absolute idiot if you do that. Jormungandr's literal name and title is The World Eater. The only thing that keeps him from devouring this branch from the tree if the fact that loki is on this branch of the world tree. So if you "Damage" him beyond repair, then the first thing his scaled hide with crush in his ever growing, massive coil, is you. You want a way to control something thats entire destiny is to destroy all of you? Think. Again. Because he wont listen to you. And even then, he is a serpent. If you're as smart as you boast, then tell me how a snake listens?" he stated in a condescending and snarky manner.
