[ Loki snorts lightly at that. Thor is an Odinson, through and through. As indomitable as Thor may seen, Loki's childhood knew better when it comes to the All-Father. All things great and small submit to Odin in the end. He wonder if his father even knew that Frigga visited his cell. Or whether Odin ever bothered to check. Ultimately, Loki is sure Odin simply wanted to forget him and that was worse than death. Be grateful because your birthright was to die.

Loki was equally tired of dying. Or dying and not having it take. ]

Your throne. Or a life with some new beloved. You are more than capable of filling up the empty spaces.

[ While Loki has only ever had Thor. That knowledge both chafes and eases the burden. Thor will always outpace him. Loki will always be in the shadows, struggling to define himself. ]

You'll be fine.

[ There is a note of wistfulness there. ]
