Loki shrugged. "Bringing the frost giants to ruin your coronation was just a bit of fun, and a way to put it off a bit. You were going to be a terrible king." Loki felt safe in saying that, because it was likely to be this older Thor's opinion as well. He hadn't been ready. "I goaded you into chasing them to make sure of it. I had no idea Odin would actually exile you for it, and when he did? I had a very significant reason to try and force some actual acceptance out of Asgard." He briefly shifted to frost giant aspect, then back to Asgardian before the surrounding temperature could drop too far. "So you had to stay exiled. I'd have been content to let you live and die on Earth, unmolested, but your idiot friends decided to go fetch you. Which in turn meant I had to kill you. I don't deny I resent that all the universe loves you for existing and walks wide around me, but anything that can be tolerated for 1500 years isn't likely to be a breaking point on its own."
