Billy and Loki's Bogus Day 2 Adventure (just making shit up now)
[Loki grips Billy's shoulder protectively for one moment. He's done enough eavesdropping to get an idea of the recent conflicts.] I most certainly will not! Why, this robot belonged to my late sister, who was in the 107th infantry during the attack on Alpha Centauri!
[Oh god, he hopes he hopes he got that right.
The collective intake of breath means yes, he probably did.] To the fallen warriors! [He snaps to attention and does a reasonable approximation of a salute. The less military works look at each other and stand at attention. In a stroke of brilliance, Loki starts to (passably) sing a patriotic song. He heard it at the opening for some sort of television sporting event.
The workers hastily put down their parts, stand up straighter, put their hands over their hearts and sing along.
oh god how I cackled
At the tail end of the song, he's practically doubled over, hands pressed over his mask rather urgently to try and muffle his laughter, ineffective as it may be. Some of the workers are starting to raise their eyebrows, but he just can't stop. What the hell, Loki. Really. What the hell.]

He steps very carefully on Billy's foot, but it's too later. The singing draws to a close. Everyone starts picking up their various parts again. The supervisor sort looks at Loki:] I think the robot's broken worse than you said.
[Loki looks painfully unimpressed.] I think you may be right. If only it weren't a terribly valuable heirloom, I would scrap it.

Seeing what it is I must put up with, will you not help? A few parts, and I shall be on my way.
[The supervisor doesn't look impressed, but it was a good enough show:] The storage room is right down the hall.

Loki follows along at an unhurried pace, and opens the storage room door.]
Well, that could have gone better.
[He picks one of the parts off a shelf. It's a bit dusty... ah, this is probably for all of the discontinued bits and bobs. Well, that's fine. There was no requirement in the listing that the parts had to be new.]
Good enough, though. [The part vanishes between his hands. And he picks up another, since he can give that to Rapunzel or bargain it with someone else.]
no subject
[He can't help being cheeky- Loki was singing, come on. Meanwhile, though, he pokes around on one of the nearby shelves, tugging his mask off to see it better. There's so much old stuff here, and some of it is even recognizable. He wanders a bit aimlessly through the bits, but when he catches sight of a flash of dusty red he practically lunges forward, dragging it out of a pile it'd been half-buried in, revealing this.]
Whoa, talk about retro...!
no subject
[Loki peers at the object.]
What is that?

no subject
[He shrugs.] Made up out of whole cloth like the rest, I should think.
no subject
[Most people, anyway. He tucks the part into his costume, though, because there's no way he's letting that one go. Even if he has to trade it for points, he can at least show Teddy.]
Think that's enough?
no subject
[He takes two more parts and causes them to vanish.] Yes, that ought to be enough.

You've never seen a movie!? Oh my god, we have to fix this.
