[Luke...just sits there.

Honestly, Loki? Honestly...]

[...stare.]

It would prove nothing of the kind.

Unless you would like to claim she is some kind of extension of yourself.

And...

[Just. What is this even. Loki has gone from angry to just... bemused. Yes. Bemused is the word. He looks at Luke for a moment, a little creeping bafflement showing in his eyes.]

...that really makes no sense at all.

[Loki watches the two exchanging looks and notices that it makes his anger rise to new heights. He has a hard time controlling it as well. For a moment he moves to pinch the bridge of his nose, at least until the red disappears in front of his eyes.

Of course fairness is not something that he expected, but it would be rather nice if they would take his words into consideration. They, because to Loki his older self and Luke only agreed with eachother and left no room for negotiation.]

This intervention is complete and utter tripe. But I hope the results are satisfactory, Luke Skywalker. After all, my word has guaranteed the safety of your loved ones.

[Not his.

And he's not even going to bother with his older self anymore. Loki is beyond angry. Angry that he screwed this up, angry that he did not managed to protect Leah from any of this, angry that they did not really listen at all and he is especially angry that he gave his word to nonsense like this.

After a dismissive gesture with his arm Loki turns around and walks off.]

[But Luke had listened. Leah would get looked after by Luke, and the pact would be something he took seriously enough to have R2D2 monitor journal broadcasts. But the boy was the one who came in spouting venom and hate. Not the older one, who had abided by his request to keep it civil.

What do you expect?

Luke gives the boy a sad look, feeling his anger. The child is heading for trouble. And it's only going to get worse.

He turns to face the older Loki.]

Sorry. He is a bit of a handful, I hadn't expected him to just start attacking you right off. I am sorry I put you through that, but hopefully he'll keep his end of the agreement.

I was likely as much of a handful at his age if not more. [Loki shrugs slightly.] I was an utterly hideous child.

My thanks for this. For my part, I will keep my word. I've no desire for that sort of trouble in such an enclosed space.

[Loki rises to his feet.] Perhaps at some point, he will figure out that the way to get answers of people like me is to not demand them, but rather... listen.

[Because he has little doubt Luke knows much, much more than he lets on. Because Luke knows how to listen.]

Perhaps. [Luke doesn't bother to get up, he picks up a bit of food and takes a thoughtful bite. It wasn't too much of a stretch for him to see this one as a troublesome brat too.]

I'm sure he'll grow to resent me too. He seems quick to take offense to anything that doesn't agree with him completely. I think he'll keep his word about it. But I'll keep an eye on the situation all the same.

[Loki laughs.] Oh Luke. He already resents you mightily.

I wouldn't be surprised if he thinks we are in collusion. [He sounds almost amused by that.] Be that as it may. I shall let you know if anything untoward happens.

[A polite nod, and then he heads for the door.]

Oh I'm sure he does.

[Luke picks up a cup of tea and sips]

We're not, you were just being the reasonable one. And I'll keep my eye out.

[So will Artoo, who recorded the entire conversation. Beep Veep Doot Deet Doot!]

[Loki pauses to lean his back against the doorframe and gives Luke an amused smile.]

I shall let you in on a secret, my friend, which I think you ought to know. And also explains why I went from rather furious to bemused so quickly.

I already am well acquainted with the young lady in question, you see, Leah of Hel. She's my student.

Ah. I...figured you'd met her.

[Great. Just great.]

Please, do try and avoid hurting her feelings. I don't think you will, but you know how teenagers are.

[He raises an eyebrow.]

I am not in the habit of taunting my students.

The young lady is eminently more rational and reasonable than my younger self.

I'm not saying you are.

And that's good to know. He's...troublesome.

[A half-smile.]

My interest in her is purely due to her being quite bright and interested in magics.

Of course.

May the Force be with you, my friend.

[Loki offers Luke a little wave and then he's out the door.]
