[Thor grunts, just barely rolling his eyes before he steps away and toward the door.]

My apologies, your highness. [He bows, gesturing toward the door.] Please, enter at your leisure. You will be glad to know that there are plenty of glasses inside.

[dothelokimotion]

[ He sniffs, his nose held high. ]

Excellent. I'm glad to see you're civilized.

[worldsaway]

Homeownership really changes a man. You'll notice it's clean, and I had something to do with that. [He follows Loki through, and he's right. It's very tidy, decorated with relics that resemble Asgardian craftmanship as much as Bryn's heritage. It's as modern as it is rustic.

There's a couch in the room they walk into, with an open view of the garden and a very, very tidy liquor cabinet that is obviously in frequent use. Thor sets two glasses on the table in front of the couch.]

So, what are you up to lately? I worry about those idle hands of yours.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki is suitably impressed, though he doesn't say so. He starts pouring the wine into the glasses as he responds. ]

My hands are never idle, brother. And I've been working on procuring a theatre.

[worldsaway]

[Loki doesn't need to talk, the lack of a wrinkled nose speaks louder than words. Thor takes a glass, sitting himself back on the chair and raising a brow at Loki.]

Seems fitting. [He hasn't that play, though sometimes he wishes he could.] Are you going to create your own productions again? The world has been waiting with baited breath for your return to the arts.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His lips turn upwards with a smile, the flicker of golden sunlit amusement in his pale eyes. ]

Perhaps. I wouldn't deprive the world of that, now would I?

But I would not be against other stories taking the stage.

[worldsaway]

Generous of you. [Thor smiles in turn, wryly. It's comforting how easy it is to get lost in back and forth with Loki.]

Do you have any ideas for your next story? Walk me through it.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His expression stutters into confusion. ]

I — Really?

[worldsaway]

You don't have to act surprised whenever I take a genuine interest in your interests. [Thor chides.]

I'm genuinely curious. The last one was a very touching moment, but you'll be hard pressed to find an actor who looks even less like me this time around.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Look, it's just surprising to him every time. Even when it shouldn't be, Loki can't help it. He clears his throat awkwardly. ]

He fit the profile well enough.

I thought I'd put to pen some of the other tales we heard. Asgard's myths.

[worldsaway]

If that's the case, at least you know you'll always have an active audience here.

[Get it, because there's so many vikings.]

Is it going to have a big, gold statue of you outside of it?

[dothelokimotion]

A gold statue?

How little you know me.

[ There are gonna be statues everywhere. ]
