[That bit about the death wish actually makes Jason smirk in response. Matters of death when they both involve him and are removed from him make him snicker, in part because he has nothing like that. And if Loki is somehow the ticket to it, he's not buying it. Loki had an opportunity to kill him just a couple days ago, and he took the blade patiently into his shoulder.]

You're mistaking me for someone who cares. What are you, some clone? Some alternate Earth nonsense? Honestly, I'm more concerned that this is telling me that Loki doesn't age well.

[While Jason is taking the circumstances seriously, he's also curious. The fear in Loki's eyes tells him there's something he's missing. He puts his plans on the backburner. Loki is in pain. He doesn't look good.

But there's something about this other Loki that reminds him a lot of the Joker. It's the striking similarity he had seen before, and he wants to see how closely it plays to the same thing.]

But we'll skip the ageing cream. Introducing yourself for the obvious is like telling me a man in a mask with bat ears and a symbol makes him Batman. Give me some credit. [He watches King Loki coldly, eyes searching his features.

Come on, asshole. Spill something that isn't taunting bullshit.]
