Mobius: We’re looking for a Loki. A variation of this guy. A type we should all be very familiar with, because the TVA has pruned a lotta these guys, almost more than any other Variant. And no two are alike. Slight differences in appearances, or not so slight. Different powers, although, powers, generally include shape-shifting, illusion-projection, and my favorite…

Loki: Duplication-casting.

Mobius: Illusion-projection.

Loki: No, they’re two completely different powers actually.

Mobius: How?

Loki: Illusion-projection involves depicting a detailed image from outside oneself, which is perceptible in the external world, whereas duplication-casting entails recreating an exact facsimile of one’s own body in its present circumstance, which acts as a true holographic mirror of its molecular structure. But you already knew that.

Mobius: Okay, take a breath. Noted. We’re gonna break into two teams, including myself and Professor Loki.
