Who: Thor and Loki
What: Brothers reuniting.
Where: The bunks
When: Shortly after his arrival Sunday morning.

Thor had been munching lazily on his breakfast. Torunn had spent the night with her brother, and he was glad to give them the space to reconnect, though he would make sure to check in on her later. He’d decided to look at the network as he ate, thinking idly about what he might do that day. Then he saw Loki’s entry appear. He stuffed the food in his mouth as he hurried to reply and contain his brother through the network.

He had to find him. He stood to move and then thought that he wasn’t sure when Loki had last eaten. He grabbed a few pieces of fruits and a muffin from the table before rushing off to see if he could find his brother. He’d mentioned sharing a room, which means he must have seen the big bunk room.

“Brother!” Thor explained as he pushed upon the door and catching sight of his younger brother. He unceremoniously dropped the food on the first table he saw, dashing to his brother and crushing him in a joyous bear hug. “I have missed you brother. We have much to discuss. Are you well?” The questions came out rapidly, barely having the breath to let his brother speak. “Would you like to walk or stay here?”

"Maybe." Thor said gently, shifting his weight. He should have known that Loki wouldn't react well to the news, he wasn't sure that anyone would take that news well. Loki's words stung at a feeling that he had been working towards repressing his whole time here. His own failures to save the ones he loved haunted him as he looked at the face of his long dead brother. He turned to follow Loki, but quickly realized that the other god might not want that. "Loki, because of you, most of our people made it to a settlement in Midgard called New Asgard, in the place where dad finally rested. No one is happy for the loss of you, brother, least of all me."

"I… I brought you some food," Thor added lamely, gesturing to the assorted mix of fruits and muffins he'd grabbed and unceremoniously deposited on the table by the door. "Take something to eat before you leave. Mother will want to see you."

Loki heard it in Thor's voice. The hurt caused by his sharp words. There was a part of him that wanted to apologize, a sudden knee jerk reaction he wasn't expecting. He rarely did that. He'd done far, far worse things to his brother over their lifetimes. But the reality of his death might have been creeping in to the corners of his mind, a small part of him trying to rationalize what Thor went through in the aftermath. He might have been an asshole, but deep down, Loki did possess a heart. The ability to empathize. He just had a talent at ignoring it too.

He was quiet as Thor showed him the food he had brought, the ghost of a smirk on Loki's face at the offering. Thoughtful. It was quite an adorable trait of his brother that he secretly appreciated. "I do hope," he said quietly, looking up to meet his brother's eyes, "There is at least one statue in my honor in this new home. It would be such a shame for Asgard to forget such a choice physique." The words were certainly said in much lighter tone, nearly teasing, in the wake of his anger.

Thor couldn't help but match his brothers soft smirk as he spoke again. Thor could still see the tense way his brother carried himself, but was relieved that the flash of anger was no longer directed at himself.

"New Asgard is a place of beauty brother, your mug would be a offense to such a place." Thor teased back. Though truth be told if he hasn't failed his people and ask into his depression he would have had a statue of honor his brother. As it stood, his people knew what Loki did for them. "However, you will have to take things up with Queen Valkyrie, I imagine she is in charge of such things."

Loki opened his mouth to shoot another quip at his brother, but instead tilted his head slightly in confusion. At first, he didn't respond, walking around Thor the slightest bit. Almost pacing, but not quite. "What do you mean, Queen Valkyrie. Did you not take the throne, brother?" Odin had named him as the next in line, the role his to take. It was another curve ball he hadn't quite expected.
