[precedented]

Well. I can't fault you for your hobbies.

What does life drawing entail, I wonder.

[complicatedliar]

Only rightful, as my hobbies are all entirely pure and innocent.

[He grins.] Quite a lot of nudity, I'm afraid.

[precedented]

[ Leto continues to comb his fingers through Loki's hair. ]

That's an interesting point of view. I wonder if the Fleet knows of your take on innocence and nudity.

[complicatedliar]

That sort of shame is a human habit I find highly amusing. We all do come into the world equally unclothed.

[precedented]

[ He hums. ]

Clothes actually make me uncomfortable at times. My second layer of skin isn't fond of coverings. I only wear them out of respect for social standards.

[complicatedliar]

Social standards rarely deserve such respect.

[precedented]

Mmm, but people do. It's no hardship, just an irritant.

[complicatedliar]

I do not think I can agree with that hasty premise of yours. [The number of people who deserve respect are significantly less than the fingers on both his hands. Honestly, Leto.]

[precedented]

Why not? What's wrong with it?

[complicatedliar]

Very few people do. It is a thing to be earned, after all.

[precedented]

That may be so. But everything must start somewhere. Why not offer the start and see if it will grow?

[complicatedliar]

[Amused.] Because I see no point in forgoing my own comforts for those who will ultimately despise me.

I'd much rather walk as I will, clothed or not as I might choose.

[precedented]

[ Leto sighs. He could contest the statement but there would be little point. ]

That's fine too.

[complicatedliar]

[Dryly:] Kind of you.

[precedented]

I am a paragon of generousity.

[complicatedliar]

Whether deserved or no.

[precedented]

It is my nature. For now.

[ It'll fade after a few centuries or so. ]

[complicatedliar]

I hear it is good to be around people who have qualities we lack.

[He's not so convinced.]

[precedented]

Oh? You're a fountain of wisdom today, Loki. And who shared this with you?

[complicatedliar]

I am a fountain of wisdom every day.

[He falls silent for a moment, then huffs a little laugh.] My mother.

[precedented]

[ Leto hums. ]

A wise woman was she, the All-Mother of Asgard.

[complicatedliar]

[He knows this, now. In his (rare) self-reflective moments, he knows she had tried to tell him a great deal and he'd ignored her. And he knows he should heed her warnings. He knows he ought to have listened while he had the change.]

And never appreciated for it.

[precedented]

That is often the way it is for parents. But she knew. It was not in vain, Loki, though the end was sore.

[complicatedliar]

She knew everything, I think sometimes.

[precedented]

[ Leto has no fond connections to his mother and father, though their spirits reside in him. Trying to look for answers in them had always left him bereft, but Leto knew not all families were like that. ]

She knew you.
