[Backdated 8/25 - mini-GP open to team demilich or by request] is anyone dead?

[st_ratagem]

Coming back to consciousness hurt, significantly more than Loki remembered hurting in recent memory. There didn't seem to be a single part of his body that wasn't in some kind of pain, and on top of that he became aware, very quickly, of an odd whistling emptiness that said too much magic. He couldn't even have called one of his knives.

All of that being the case, he didn't move. If the fight was still going on, he intended to stay down. For a little while. Until he had something to act with or on. Or until he legitimately passed out again; that seemed horribly likely, with the way his head was swimming and the warm-wet of blood flowing out instead of staying in.

The desert was essentially silent, though, for the definition of 'silence' that included the sounds of wind and ordinary movement. Footsteps. Voices.

He wasn't dead, then. Was anyone else?

"Only recently." Clarice admitted to him. "But I'm learning to loosen up more and use them for something other than escaping." She paused a beat and added, "and playing ping pong with a skull."

"That was fun," Thor says. "Until people started getting hurt, anyway. You ever want to play ping-pong again, let me know. I was always losing to Darcy. Always striking the ball a little harder than I should."

"We can make it interesting by playing the balls through portals." Clarice teased him, then said, "but you're on. When we're both up to playing again, I'll take you up on that game."

Thor pushes himself up to his feet. "I should check in on Stark and Loki," he says. "You think you will be all right here alone?"

"Yeah, I'll be good. I've had a nap and a massage. I can make it another five hours." Clarice smiled slightly, "just don't be surprised if you come through here and I'm napping."

"I'll try not to disturb you, then."

Thor gives her a smile, then heads in the direction of the makeshift infirmary.
