[The closeness is needed, necessary--Alex isn't pulling away anytime soon. The little nuzzle actually makes him smile.]
Right...okay. SO...I'm not human. Which you probably guessed already. But...I'm also not actually Dr. Alex Mercer.
[Fuck, now how did he explain this?]
So my nexus event was, apparently, that I was supposed to die taking the nuke out to see that they were going to use on New York. I didn't, and survived. But that's because Alex died 3 days earlier. And fell on a vial of the virus he'd helped engineer. And taken as insurance in case they were going to black bag him like they did. He let the virus loose, and they shot him, and he fell on it.
[Loki should be smart enough to piece together what Alex wasn't saying. He leaned a little closer, almost hiding his head.]
I woke up on an autopsy table, with scattered memories, and had to piece everything together.
