Should I have sent flowers? [ Teasing. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Though the tips of his ears go slightly pink, Loki smirks. ]

Flowers wouldn't hurt.

[signifies]

[ Loki is creating a monster. ]

All right. Which ones are your favourite, then?

[dothelokimotion]

[ Look, he's a needy creature. It only takes him a moment to consider his answer. ]

Trumpet lilies.

[signifies]

I'll keep that in mind, then.

Please, have a slice.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki eyes it with his customary wariness before relaxing and taking a slice. He takes a bite and savoring it quietly. ]

It is good. Not too sweet.

[signifies]

And the tea?

[dothelokimotion]

[ He chuckles softly. ]

The tea is lovely. There's no reason to be so concerned.

[signifies]

Oh, someone might have told me they have high standards. You can't blame me for being a little worried.

So, how would you rate my ambush? On a scale of one to five, one being the worst, five being the best.

[dothelokimotion]

Mmm.

[ Loki leans back in his chair, looking as if he's giving this a lot of thought. ]

Perhaps a four. I had to remove points for the lack of fireworks and flowers.

[signifies]

Only a four! However will I live. I really thought I was getting a six, there.

[ What a dork. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki's eyes crinkle in good humour. ]

Well, I'm sure you'll get other chances.

[signifies]

No, no, it's too late, I'll never be the same again.

[dothelokimotion]

We can't have that.

[ Loki rests his elbows on the table, his chin resting on top of his hands. ]

What do I have to do to rectify it?

[signifies]

Hmmm. . . you've wounded my heart. I demand a spa day.

[ He's never been to a spa, but it might be nice. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki cocks his head. ]

That seems feasible. When would you like to do this?

[signifies]

My schedule's fluid, so. . . surprise me.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki laughs. ]

Very well. Since you've earned my good favor.

[signifies]

Okay. . . but I've been wounded deeply. Just remember that.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His smile is faintly bland. ]

That's fine. It's what I'm best at.
