[Eddie paces as he talks. There's a cast on his arm with the word loser written in black, with a red V written over the s to spell lover.]
Hello? Can you hear me? We're all kidnapping victims here; you guys know that right?
This nanite stuff sucks. There are tiny germ sized robots crawling around inside us! Something's gotta be powering them. They could be hanging out in our stomachs eating our food. Or they could be eating us and making tiny little holes inside our bodies. They could all build up in one place and block off the blood flowing through our arteries and our veins. Or build up in our organs, our lungs and our brains! And, our bodies are mostly water. They could be rusting inside us.
[He stops pacing and starts scratching his face with his cast-free hand]
I think I'm allergic to them! Everything's itchy. I'm gonna break out into hives!
[He starts wheezing and rubs his chest.]
I could be allergic to the tattoo too. I'm just a kid. I shouldn't have one. I think it's starting to swell up. I could have an infection. Or a blood disease. I don't trust these government people to be clean.
[The wheezing continues and his voice becomes strained with each word. He takes his inhaler out of a fanny pack and uses it, only speaking again when he's breathing is back to normal.]
How are we supposed to deal with this shit?

No. He doesn't have the patience for this sort of thing. He is no Thor. Or Captain America. This is... Just not something he's good at. Never was. Probably never will be. ]
I will just go back to insulting and annoying you, child.

Just as long as you don’t say shit. [And just like that it’s like the mask is back on, and Richie slides back into his usual demeanor.] Anyway, it’s not like you’re any good at it, fuckhead. You gotta pick on kids now ‘cause every time you try with adults they shut your bullshit down?

Though rather than verbally responding, Loki plain settles with a simple, yet knowing smile - Then cuts the connection. ]
