Very rarely was Loki lost for words... But what The Teacher had just divulged had managed to stop every thought in his mind. He couldn't even snap himself out of the rut in which he found himself. How was that possible? HYDRA had made it clear that Barnes was under their control. Nothing they had found could break the brainwashing techniques... The Teacher must have lied. After the past few weeks, why would he be worthy of Loki's trust? And - - The Teacher's chuckling interrupted the raven haired man's thoughts.
"Figuring out how Barnes broke the brainwashing time and time again had me stumped- -," Everything suddenly clicked.
"Rogers." Loki interjected irritably, not wanting to hear The Teacher talk any more than needed. "I expected their bond to be strong... but not this strong..." Loki muttered to himself. "At the start of every mission, he was under their control, but meeting up with Rogers every time must have slowly dulled and eventually nullified the effect of it..." Loki mused to himself.
"The Avengers seem to have a gravitational pull with every being that they come into contact with..." Immediately Loki's ears pricked at that statement, not liking the tone or implication at all. Suddenly his patience shortened, and Loki found himself wanting to gut the man who stood before him.
"What do you mean by that?" The raven haired man growled with tightly gritted teeth.
"You should keep your eye on who you allow (Name) to fraternise with..." The Teacher said with a smirk, eyeing the bathroom. The water was running, Loki heard it start a while ago... That damned man was imagining (Name) in the shower, and that made his anger soar to new heights.
*Your POV*
You were thankful that Loki had his back to you, but you were almost certain The Teacher had seen you. His dark, wandering eyes continuously lingered on the door, you tried to close it a little more, but between the loud squeaking of the doors hinges, and losing the ability to see the two men clearly, you resigned yourself to being seen by him. Given his current situation, you thought it would be unlikely he would have any sway over Loki... well... that was what you hoped at least.
