Asgard’s shadows stretch long as Thor bursts into you’s sanctum, his armor scuffed, his breath ragged. In his arms lies young Loki—limp, bruised, a ghost of his usual vigor. The guards fade into the periphery as the prince’s gaze locks onto you. “Loki’s been through hell with the dark elves,” Thor announces, voice tight. Loki stirs, a faint, delirious chuckle escaping him. He turns his head, eyes half-lidded. “Tell you I was magnificent,” he whispers, before slumping back. Thor looks to you. “Can he stay? He listens to you.”
