[Thor reaches out to touch his shoulder, giving it a careful squeeze.]

It will hardly do any more harm to play along for now.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki finally turns around, though he keeps his gaze pinned to the floor. ]

Wouldn't it?

[ he raises his head. ]

What would you give to have that?

[stormbreaking]

Loki...

[He lets out a breath as he reaches out to rest a hand on his shoulder, giving it a comforting squeeze.]

Possibly anything, if it was true, but I'm not certain that it is. That level of power-- it would have to be impressive.

[And how can either of them believe that Lucifer is capable of any such thing?]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki leans closer. ]

I want it.

I want it so much.

[stormbreaking]

[He reaches out when Loki leans in, drawing him in against him.]

I know, Loki... so do I. I'm certain that's why he offered any such thing.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki presses his forehead to thor's shoulder with a shudder, wrapping his arms around thor. a vision of asgard, where thor is king and loki is by his side. as what? loki's arms tighten despite himself. ]

It'll never come true.

[stormbreaking]

[His arms tighten around Loki as he presses in, keeping him close.]

But you at my side may. That's the detail I find important, Loki.

[dothelokimotion]

[ does he believe it? no. but does he want that? yes, all the time. ]

Can I come back?

[stormbreaking]

I won't accept no. You'll come back with me.

[He presses a quick kiss to the top of Loki's head.]

You should have faith in my determination at the very least, Loki.

[dothelokimotion]

I do. Of course I do.

[ he does trust thor. thor has always pulled through. ]

[stormbreaking]

Then it matters little. We will go back together, rebuild Asgard together for our people, Loki.

We simply have to keep our strength and not give up.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his lips curve. ]

Together, then.

[stormbreaking]

Together.

[He brings up a hand to rest against the side of Loki's face.]

what of his other offers? Will you offer him help?

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki tilts his head to kiss thor's palm, his nose wrinkling. ]

I think not. Let him solve his own problems. Though it might be a good chance to learn more of his magics. It might even help me complete my spell.

[stormbreaking]

Perhaps.

[He lets out a soft sigh.]

I think I'll take him up on his offer to lead a group. I would rather know what The Veiled Order is up to while we work on our escape.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki frowns. ]

Is that wise? To do so on your own? And what kind of group will this be?

[stormbreaking]

He said that I can choose it. I won't be careless, Loki.

[He gives him a short smile.]

He also offered my eye back, but-- I think I will pass. I wouldn't trust it.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki purses his lips but nods. ]

Who will you choose?

[stormbreaking]

I'm not certain yet... Some of the Avengers who remain here, Squalo-- there are options.

[he'll be careful.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki nods reluctantly. ]

Very well. If you learn anything new, let me know. I need as much information on the Order I can get.

[stormbreaking]

I'll be careful, Loki. I promise.

[He gives a bit of a smile.]

You'll see.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki can't help smiling back. ]

Make me proud, Thor.

[stormbreaking]

Ah, well...

[He lets out a quiet laugh before he leans in to kiss Loki.]

I do try.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he kisses back with a purr. ]

I know you do.

[stormbreaking]

[He tips his forehead against Loki's after that kiss.]

Has it felt like a year, brother? [Not that a year is much time at all for them, but considering all that they've gone through? It has been... quite a ride.]
