[For anyone who hasn't had the pleasure of meeting Loki's smarmy grin face to face, they're greeted with it now, as he broadcasts across the network from what appears to be the outdoor seating area of Starkbucks for anyone familiar.]

Well, I for one am pleased to learn the locals are capable of more than derisive glances, as they are certainly excited about this circus coming to town.

[He doesn't speak for two seconds, and a conversation at a nearby table can be overheard, bits of pieces of someone rambling about a caravan.]

Evidently we can expect exotic animals and other stunning spectacles. Maybe we'll even have a jester, or a magician. Wouldn't that be fun?

[He smirks.]

Who doesn't love a good illusion?

True, but what if that change is for the better?

[forleaving]

Then I guess I'll have a lot of extra money.

[There was no such thing as having too much money. Unless you let it go to your head, like some people he knew.]

Have you ever been poor?

[morethanatrickster]

Oh? Not a sharer, then?

( He's a prince. )

Not by your apparent definition, no. I was born a prince.

[forleaving]

[For the briefest of moments, he froze. The idea of sharing what he had never really crossed his mind.]

I've never had enough money to share, before. I'm...not sure who I'd share with.

[A prince.]

Oh. That explains a lot. I don't mean any offense, it's just hard for some people to understand what it's like to struggle with money.

[morethanatrickster]

I suppose it is, though that struggle isn't one afflicting anyone here. We're provided shelter, food, a means of employment.

[forleaving]

True.

[He chose his words carefully before he spoke again.]

I'm glad no one has to struggle here. I'm only saying that it doesn't erase what people have gone through in the past.

[morethanatrickster]

It doesn't, no.

[He chooses his next words carefully as well, not wanting to put off the others and all that.]

And even though not all of us has struggled with funds, I believe all of us have struggled in some way.
