[Loki appears as he is wont to do, silently and without any apparent reason for being here. Though the answer is simple: he was looking around for daggers that might meet his exacting standards, and noticed the weather. It doesn't take his level of genius to guess what's going on.

The odder thing is that he care. Well, sort of. He's out of practice, with caring. Still trying it on for size and trying to decide if he likes it or not.

Not a thing he'll give voice to, though. He sits himself next to Thor, looking at the sky for a bit. Then back at his brother, one eyebrow raised as if to say, Really?]

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor doesn't move for a few moments, even though he knows Loki has slipped into the seat next to him. It's a familiar enough move. Or it was, years ago. There was a time when Thor would have immediately told Loki it wasn't a good idea to be around him when he was in this kind of mood. Loki, of course, wouldn't have paid any heed to that. And Thor would have privately been glad for it. He's not about to warn his brother off this time - there's no need, even with his dark mood. Thor's temper is much less volatile than it used to be.

When he catches Loki's questioning eyebrow, he sighs and straightens up in his seat.]

What?

[complicatedliar]

[He glances up at the weather, then back at Thor.]

Getting a bit dramatic in your old age, brother. I thought that was my job.

[rebuildyourruins]

You made a play about your death.

[The dramatic crown is still Loki's, without question. Thor does frown up at the sky for a moment, taking the point regardless of the back and forth. It hasn't escaped his attention. Just his desire to do much about it.]

[complicatedliar]

[His lips curl in a little smirk.] Yet somehow I missed out on this level of... special effects.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Resting his chin on a fist, the temptation to remain mulishly silent is... pretty strong. He doubts Loki will do the same though.]

I don't like being here when there are more important things I ought to be doing.

[And tonight that feeling has just hit him in the face particularly hard.]

[complicatedliar]

Mmm. From what you've said about the... time differential between this dimension and our home, you do realize that you really aren't gone at all.

[rebuildyourruins]

I've experienced that for myself. Somehow, it does not feel that way while I'm sitting here.

[Maybe that's a bit saltier than usual, but it's the truth. Knowing everything about the time distortion does little to relieve the very real feeling that he's wasting his time idling around in the Fleet.]
