[Loki sighs and lets the feelings of that past Loki wash over them. It was annoying to have it dredged up, especially in front of Thor, but it is done and gone.

They just as gently move Thor's hand off their shoulder, appreciating the gesture though finding it unnecessary.]

I'm just glad to meet any Thor who has half a brain in his head. [they laugh, their tone truly affectionate. Rather than hiding their feelings, it does seem as if they've given themselves a moment to feel them and move on. That's certainly a change for any Loki, almost always ignoring and thus always dwelling in their negativity.]

This was some time ago, by the by. Before I was even the me I am currently. I got caught up in it for a minute, as one can with old memories, but the other Thor has grown since then, I assure you.

[And they did deserve it like, a little bit. Considering the circumstances.]
