I don't care, I just want to feel it.

[ the way thor does. the way everyone else seems to. so absolutely certain of the worth in this world, while loki continues to scramble for meaning. ]

[angelpiratebaby]

You are the only person who can make you feel worthy, brother.

[dothelokimotion]

You make it sound so simple.

[angelpiratebaby]

It's not. If it was, I would've done that long before I lost the hammer.

[dothelokimotion]

So what am I supposed to do?

[angelpiratebaby]

Learn to like yourself, and after you do that, learn to love yourself.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki grimaces. he likes none of those options. ]

Personally, I rather find another magical weapon to get overly attached to.

[angelpiratebaby]

[ Gently. ]

There are many things about you to love, brother.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he mutters. ]

I bet you can't come up with seven reasons.

[angelpiratebaby]

If I give you seven, you have to give me seven, yes?

[dothelokimotion]

[ this feels like a trap. loki squints at thor suspiciously. ]

All right. Seven each.

[angelpiratebaby]

[ It is! Thor gets seven compliments from Loki. He is very satisfied by this deal. He smiles. He puts up one finger.]

You are the smartest person I know. I've envied your intelligence our whole lives.

[ Two fingers. ]

You are very funny, I hate that you make me want to laugh when I want to yell.

[ Three fingers. ]

You're a better diplomat than I ever could be. A better leader in some ways because of it.

[ Four fingers. ]

You are very perceptive. You usually use it to hurt or mock people. [ An annoyed look. ] Which is not putting it to the best use in my opinion, but you make it seem easy, understanding people.

[ Five fingers. ]

I also envy your power set. And mother's training. It takes a strategic mind to use tricks like yours, all I had was electricity and brawn.

[ Six fingers. ]

You're remarkably adaptive. Many times that has led you to betray me to keep your own skin safe, but I cannot deny that I would love to be able to change as fast as you do. Consider your arrival to Sakaar versus mine.

[ Loki gets in good with the leader. Thor stumbles around and tries to punch things until he wins. They do what they have to. Seven fingers. ]

I think you have a beautiful and loving heart, Loki. I was loved by you for over a thousand years, and that is why I think so fondly of our past together. Being your brother was wonderful, before we seemed to lose our way.

[dothelokimotion]

[ the tips of his ears go a little pink as he determinedly looks away because that is a lot of feelings and he's not sure how to process all of it. ]

Only half those things sound like me. My heart barely has space for anyone.

[angelpiratebaby]

[ Thor is offended. ]

Excuse me, I gave you seven things without any trouble, you don't get to decide what they are.

[dothelokimotion]

I didn't say I was deciding, I just don't think they're particularly accurate.

[angelpiratebaby]

I know you better than you know yourself.

[dothelokimotion]

[ that gives loki pause. ]

How? How are you so . . . sure?

[angelpiratebaby]

Because I feel it. I trust myself.

[dothelokimotion]

[ ah. that's the difference. ]

I see.

[angelpiratebaby]

It's not as easy as you think for me.

[dothelokimotion]

. . . No. It's probably not.

[angelpiratebaby]

I was exiled to Earth because of my bad attitude and arrogance. I'm only this way because of my failures.

[dothelokimotion]

Not only that.

[ he feels like he wants to say more but he shakes it off. ]

I guess it's my turn.

[angelpiratebaby]

Oh yes, please do.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki gives a long sigh. ]

Fine. I suppose you are heroic, brave, selfless. Despite a desire to overcompensate, you can be humble at times. A little too compassionate, honestly. With an optimistic outlook.

[ he crosses his arms. ]

. . . You don't give up. Even when you should.
