That is one of my plans.

[ he grabs a sushi roll between his chopsticks. ]

And I will certainly act towards, but I'm not galvanised towards action at the moment.

[ikols]

Very well, I will be your impetus for the day. [ Waving her chopsticks around as she thinks, she swallows and declares, ] It seems to me you are deflated and require a metaphorical kick up the backside. Your dire history is validating of your mood, certainly, but you are a Loki.

[ In the hand that isn't busy snapping utensils at new dishes, she turns her fingers and the Norn Stones are revealed with a shimmer of green, glowing above her palm. ]

You should take one and remember how to be yourself with a little mischief.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his eyes narrow at the norn stones, familiar with their power. he's not foolish enough to reach out and take one just yet. ]

That's a kingly gift.

[ikols]

Well, I'm only offering one on loan.

[ She jostles her hand and a stone skips over to him. ]

To amplify your power and allow you some fun. I don't want to know what you get up to with it, better that I don't in fact, but that ought to give you a mildly galvanising reason to get out there and flex your spells.

[ loki finally grabs it politely before it blinks out, gone into one of his magical pocket spaces. for a moment, he falls silent, almost unsure. ]

Why are you helping me? Really?

[ikols]

Oh, mischief. Absolutely.

[ She's genuinely curious to see what happens when he's let lose with an extra power-up rock, she is creating mischief through him doing his own stuff. That, and ... chinning a hand, she shoots him a softer smile. ]

You seem more sad than mad, which is a rare quality in us.

[dothelokimotion]

I never wore madness all too well.

[ not like thanos did. oh, loki did his best to emulate him. or whatever creature people expected him to be. there were so many molds to fill. but he's worn them all to dust and dirt. now there is just loki, solidified.

god of mischief. he won't forget it. ]

Mischief, however, is evergreen.

[ikols]

That it is.

[ With that settled and feeling like she has proven helpful, she cheerily continues eating. ]

Did you ever possess a long-horned helm too? Long ago, I did.

[dothelokimotion]

I did it. I wore it when I was younger, but swapped it out for something more pragmatic.

Much like yours.

[ikols]

That's reassuring to know. May I see yours?

[ Waggling her brows. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ he rolls his eyes goodnatured, but his outfit shifts to this. ]

[ikols]

[ Wolf-whistles!! ]

Now I really am underdressed.

[ And she shifts into her usual scalemaille and green coat, laughing. ]

We look like we're about to take over the bar.

[dothelokimotion]

A fitting victory for the Lokis.
