It had been a while since the brothers had spent time together; it was possible that Loki had been avoiding Thor somewhat since their message conversation about his... involvement with Valkyrie. Further conversation was something he both did and didn’t want to have, which was a good sign of an unintended fight ab It to happen. But things had been quiet enough for long enough that it didn’t seem like something worth worrying about.

So Loki sent a quick message to Thor, inviting him up to see the fish tank and mostly-Valkyrie’s collection of goldfish swimming around inside it.

"Somewhat," Thor repeats, more for the sound of it than in protest of it. "I'm still trying to trust your decision-making on The Statesman. It's nicer to believe you died for something than for nothing."

Though Thor still would rather his brother not die at all.

"It'd be easier, you know," Thor says, resisting the temptation to touch his hair where it's clipped. "If I really believed you valued your life."

For a long moment, Thor doesn't say anything.

"When I go back, it'll be like losing you for a fourth time," he says. "It doesn't matter if you die, if you opt to leave it will still be a loss."

Thor takes the mirror, but doesn't hold it up yet. "You could stay in disguise," he insists. "Stay with us with some other face."

Thor looks over at Loki. "We'll go somewhere else, then," he says. "It doesn't have to be Earth."

Thor squints at Loki as he pulls out a bottle of rum and a matchbox, but doesn't remark upon it.

"You don't think Vanaheim would welcome us?"
st_ormbreaker: (Confused.)

Thor blinks at Loki's display.

"You can't just throw that away?"
st_ormbreaker: (Confused.)

Thor squints in response. "No, I usually don't have reason to suspect people might control me."
st_ormbreaker: (Confused.)

"I don't know if after 1500 years it can still be called luck," he says. "Are you that worried about someone doing magic on you after a haircut?"

Thor feared few things, but he couldn't imagine a reality when he'd have anxiety about leaving a few hair clippings behind after a haircut. He'd left plenty back on Sakaar and no one had thought to do anything with any of that.

"Did you do that when mother cut your hair, too?"

That seems weird to Thor, but he doesn't remark upon it. Instead, he moves the conversation back to where it was before.

"I don't think Vanaheim is as far out of reach as you think it is," he says. "We're the sons of Frigga. I'm half Vanir."

"I would much rather have my brother in my life." Yes, his human friends were important, but he could easily see them whenever he wished with the Bifrost. That wouldn't be the case for Loki if they settled on Earth.
