Miranda here.
Loki grabbed Ivy on her way down.
I jumped up, expecting him to stab her again.
Instead, he set her down and knelt down next to her. He started to pull the now dirty bandage off Ivy's arm.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
He ignored me and started to inspect her wound. It was still bleeding and oozing blue.
Ivy mumbled something and tried to knock his hands away, but it didn't do any good. She had long ago lost the strength she would need for that.
He reached a hand beneath his long green cloak and removed it covered in something green. He stared to rub it directly onto the bloody spot. As he did so, Ivy relaxed.
He finished, rubbing off his hand on his cloak. He tore off the other sleeve of Ivy's jacket and tied it around her arm.
As he did so, she sat up and take notice of her surroundings. She turned her attention to Loki.
"Feeling better?" he asked.
Ivy stared. "What? What are you –"
Then he pressed the tip of his spear to her chest.
I screamed.
Ivy's eyes widened, big and green. Then they glazed over, and then went blue.
Loki pulled it away, smiling. "Are you sorry about what you said to me?"
"Yes, Sir," said Ivy, in an empty voice.
"Then kneel."
Ivy's eyes flashed green and she lashed out, driving her fist into his jaw.
Loki stared and he hit her. Her head turned with the strike and she went down in a heap. I yelled.
She sat up, both eyes blue again. "My apologies, Sir."
She stood.
Loki didn't ask her to kneel again.
I didn't know how Ivy was resisting at all – Hawkeye hadn't been able to, why could she – but I guess he somehow knew the same thing would happen. Ivy and I it had something to do with the interdimensional energy that the Doctor told her about. I cannot believe that I missed out on meeting him. I cannot believe it. Ivy is incredibly lucky and she doesn't even realize it!
Anyhow, you probably want to hear me rant. Ivy put up with two hours of it when she first told me.
"What about her, Sir?" asked Ivy, nodding her head toward me.
"I don't want her. I want you. You have heart."
The end of his spear collided with my head, and everything went black.
