[ one if by land, two if by sea... and wave that sucker back and forth if you're trying to see if your creepy BFF is actually watching from her hole in the ground. We're gods of time and space here; fuck the nightmare arc or whatever fancy name it has. Loki's currently leaning out his window, waving his lantern back and forth in what looks like some bizarre rave ritual. Perhaps the lantern isn't far enough out the window; he leans out a bit further, hoping REALLY HARD that his foothold holds. If Leah doesn't respond in some way or form soon, he may have to start texting.

I don't care if you're dead, dying, or one legged, tag me. ]

[WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP. GET TO BED, YOUNG MAN.

Since Thor is his sole guardian, he has some sort of responsibility to the growth of this devious young man, doesn't he? To be honest though, he was just checking if Loki is asleep.

Because there's a rumor about a shadow sneaking into people's rooms, hovering over them. This kind of creep-level could only mean one thing -- as per usual, all fingers points to Loki first, regardless of situation. And it needs repeating that Loki is his responsibility now, so this is Thor, decked out in full armor and pushing open the door to Loki's hole-tower-room-thing. The creak in the door should do in announcing his presence, so face him, you base villian!]

[filou]

[ JUST FIVE MORE MINUTES SNL IS ON.

oh good god the suddenly squeaking of the door is enough to nearly topple Loki out the window (how can Thor even sneak so well when he's 600 lbs of manflesh), but he luckily grabs hold of the window side and manages to drop only the lamp! He gives one window one last glare — LEAH YOU HARLOT— before turning around to face his brother with the biggest most innocent smile one can wear in the dead of night when caught hanging out a window ]

Hello, brother! Is something keeping you awake?

[themighty]

[YOU'RE LIKE 12. WHY ARE YOU WATCHING SNL.

See this face? It's the face of one who isn't impressed and one who is not buying your innocent smile. Why? Yep, because you're Loki. That's how your life goes. ... Well, okay, he'll soften the look since you're not the one that screwed him over all those times.]

Aye, he drops lamps and makes unlikely friends. [He means that birds you're constantly hanging around with anyway.]

What is it that you are seek?

[Here, let your big brother tower over you and help you look out for whatever demons you possibly summoned in your curiosity.]

[filou]

Perhaps my affinity with the feathered-kind was late in developing.

[ JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE WAS GUEST STARRING AND HE WISHED TO LEARN HOW TO BRING SEXY BACK.

Ooooooh he knows his behavior has been rather suspicious of late, and no one trusts a bird that seems to know far more than it should. Every time Volstagg eats a whole pie in one bite? Ikol sees. When Sif and Thor go at it like impassioned bunnies? Ikol sees all. With that lovely anecdote, back on topic. Loki's perfect smile slips a bit, falling slightly into 'caught with hand into the cookie jar' territory because lying to Thor feels wrong, but at the same time explaining why he's hanging out with Leah is just as unpleasant, if not more ]

I merely caught sight of a stray cat and attempted to shoo it away. I imagine it thought it would find an easy meal, and feared for the safety of my friend.

[ IKOL... FRIEND... RIGHT ]

[themighty]

[...... Ikol, you scoundrel. Do you also see what Odin does all alone with that glowing seed at night? Curious minds wants to know.

And if lying to Thor feels wrong, then Loki should be drowning in that feeling. Whatever, Thor doesn't see any reason to lie for this, so he lets his doubt go and gets his damn heart get the better of him. He'll let it go, Loki can't be plotting to kill him and/or destroying Asgard,; he's just a child.

He crosses his arms and leans away from the window. Here comes a big giant paw/hand on your head and in your hair for ruffling purposes! Also for the purpose of steering Loki away from the window. With his head. Yes, best bro ever.]

You are a good friend to be worried and to take caution. But birds can find easy escapes with their wings. Go [the fuck] to sleep, Loki.

[filou]

[ you don't want to know, Thor. You don't want to know. And Thor, you really do underestimate the ingenuity of evil little children. Loki leaves the window with a bit of reluctance; Leah still hasn't texted him back, and if his signal lamps haven't attracted her attention, she'll never respond in time to catch the live stream of Whats Your Number? ]

But my concern is not so easily sated, and is it not natural to worry about the well-being of friends?

[ and a glance at his phone... which unfortunately for Loki, is still on the browser, displaying a very naked Chris Evans strumming a guitar. Its a scene from the movie, okay ]

[themighty]

[... YOU ARE 12 WHY DO YOU HAVE THAT ON YOUR STARK PHONE. HE IS GOING TO FORBID THIS THING IN YOUR POSSESSION.

No, Thor just looks at the phone with that "I'm confused but you know I'm just going to not question it, it's a silly Midgard/Loki thing" then he turns back to Loki for more pressing matters. Yes, what naked Chris Evans strumming on a guitar image? Nope. Pressing matters in lecturing his young brother is more indeed pressing.]

Aye, it is. But you must not abandon your faith in your friend's ability. A bird can fly to where it pleases, away from here and from any harm. You insult your friend by thinking him weak.

[filou]

[ let us leave it at 'its a terrible romance movie and all ammay's fault. The look on Loki's face when he realizes the phone is still stuck on browse is most accurately summed up by '8T', and thankfully the sake of everyone's sanity, it's ignored. DAMN YOU AMMAY SLASH LEAH DAMN YOU. ]

It is far less of an insult and more of an accurate concern, as far as he is concerned. He is a rather big-headed bird.

[ no faith in Ikol. none at alllllll ]

[themighty]

[It's slowly starting to sink in. You know, responsibility, guiding Loki towards a some what normal childhood. That childhood which has... talks about... things. Wait, didn't they have someone else teach them this stuff... It certainly wasn't Odin who gave him the talk. Pretty sure it was Frigga.

Why is he even thinking about all this.

Some face palming later, he sits Loki down and gives him a death serious hey you better listen up look.]

While you keep watch, your friend will be well. 'Tis a lonely task, Brother, but duty nonetheless. But I will stay with you for the while it takes to ward off this cat. Then let all creatures know that your bird is under protection of two princes.

[Sif is going to kill him for not coming to bed because of Loki. But he has to deal with this, he's the big brother and all. So. Yeah, let's be blunt about this.]

Why do you have an unclothed man on your Stark Phone?

[filou]

[ it's like adopting a dog and suddenly realizing they have needs besides love and affection. they need to be walked, taken out to poo, and every now and then when you leave them alone they go and tear up your shoes and pee on your sweater. at first, Loki thinks it's some awesome brother to brother talk; maybe about sports, awesome new movies and barbecue joints, just being manly men doing manly things, you know. brotherly talk. so the look on his face when it turns out to be about stupid Chris Evans is one of deep disappointment, utter regret, and some anguish. he's seen the movies. he knows that kids are found in cabbage patches. ]

It is the template of a new meme, Brother. One which takes the photograph of the actor known as Chris Evans, and superimposes various texts of feminine nature. I have seen it referred to as 'Hey Girl'.

[ because 'leah likes movies with naked men and he was pretty naked' is obviously not the appropriate response. ]

My curiosity is of the most academic nature.
