Re: But he was my trouble.
"Yes," the black-haired brother assured the blond, as to the consideration of his innocence. Thor's sentiment of his impending judgment was quaint, but until Loki proved himself worthy to the queen (and quickly), she would no doubt have a say in the matter. And she usually got her way. Like just back there, Loki thought. He laughed, teeth exposed with actual amusement at Thor's reasoning for exposing him to the children. It wasn't the worst purpose Loki had served. "What can I do? Really, truly. I've worked to earn her good graces, but-" yes, he'd slaughtered her people and attempted to murder her husband numerous occasions, simultaneously working for and with the attempted overlord of all existence. He had regrets. "Now this, with Baldr. One half a step forward, years set back..." In Eva's eyes, and in turn those who were close to her. Like... the entire court. "She did thank me for preventing harm or entrapment from befalling Thea, though..." That wasn't something to shirk at.
