“No spite.” Minimal spite, two to five percent at most, but no quips. “You,” Loki pointed, “will never actually know what I do or don’t do, whether I live or die, whether any of it matters or not. Therefore, the only reason to engage with this is your peace of mind, but for me that’s a lost cause. You’ve been very clear that my best is insufficient. Why that is is probably irrelevant.” Loki still bet on ‘no one but Thor can ever do anything right’ but there were other options.
“Book or no book, whatever I plan or think, you’ll have no increased peace of mind. So I’ll just spare us repeating this fight when you decide that another plan of which you know nothing is worthless.” Loki waved the hand that had just been pointing, somewhat dismissively. “You’ll believe whatever you want to believe as you already do, with the added comfort of ‘oh well, not my fault’, and I’ll do the best I can with what I have. It won’t be good enough for you, but it never would be, so fuck it.”
