You were successful, then? Other than the part about minor structural damage.
You are definitely getting more than a few minutes. I miss you too. It's been too quiet without you. [ And just... more stressful. Their lives are constantly in danger, of course, but she'll feel better knowing that her wife is just holed up in a room somewhere rather than having no idea where she is at all. ]
Technically yes! And there really was only minor structural damage. I was so happy about that.
But the thee of us really do need to chat at some point. If only so I can prove to Hel that I'm alive and don't deserve her wrath
...Please be aware if I fail at this, I'm going on vacation for about fifty years or so. I'll send pictures and gifts for everyone and leave them at an undisclosed location.
[ Loki is not actually excited to go back in this way. But well, as cheerful as she's attempting to sound, she is Worried. Accidentally intercepting private communication logs that mention their general location and who is on base, was enough to keep her distracted for a few days to try and scramble things.
But she can only delay things for so long and while she did manager to create a few little problems for the, that won't push back Asgard's plans forever. ]
[ Is anybody in the Resistance ever really mad at Loki? Exasperated, maybe. On plenty occasions. But everyone seems to like her just fine, which is great, though strangely confusing. ]
She just hates being left behind while everyone else is doing something. But what can I do, Fenrir had me ensure she remained in the base and not... wind up gallivanting around Asgard. [ You know, for Hodr-shaped reasons. ]
Honestly? No. Everyone here still isn't quite what I'm used to. I think I'm better at reading them than before but well, I'm not always a quick learner.
[ Yeah, she doesn't get it either. She's trying Very Hard but also, she's aware that there are plenty of reasons for none of them to like her. Which honestly is why she might like Hodr as much as she does.
She was in his position for a fair bit there. Sometimes she thinks she still might be. ]
Ah, that makes sense I suppose. As for trouble, how would you feel if I told you not yet?
Time is what I was trying for. However, not much else I can do from here without also not putting us on a tighter schedule than we may already need to be on.
But that doesn't mean anyone likes me. I'm excellent at being of use to people and ingratiating myself to them. That's an entirely different game than what we're doing here.
This isn't any sort of a game, for one.

We do, yes. I have no idea when we'll make it back to you all, so feel free to start plans and I can get caught up when I get back.
I know you're not. Honestly, I think I'm just tired, I'm sorry. I was going for longer than I should be, but I was trying to buy us a bit more time. I wasn't sure who was still around but I knew there had been a talk about people heading out right before I left.
Hades has offered us a place if we need to evacuate.
I appreciate that. We all do. Come home and rest for a bit. We'll figure this out together. [ The base isn't much of a home, but it's what they've got now. ]
One day we really ought to do something nice for him if we get the chance.
Truthfully, I'm half debating the merits of sleeping on the way back. I probably won't but it's a nice thought nonetheless.
I can try to throw together a report of everything I've been doing and what you all needs to know. I can't promise it's going to be entirely coherent but it might help. If nothing else, you know how my notes are. I can send those over, if you feel like working though them.

I worry, Loki.
no subject
But I know you do, love. I really am sorry. I've already mentioned it but I'll be headed back today. We need to talk about a few things.
[ About two minutes later. ]
I mean you, Hel, and I need to talk. Although if we can get a few minutes, I certainly won't complain.
I miss you.

Well, it could be worse. But ‘not yet’ at least gives us some time.
And give yourself some credit. You’re smarter than most of us here.

Well, you’re right about that. I’m not just anyone.

How about I take your notes and you try to get some sleep? We have a lot to talk about when you get here, that thing with Hel aside.
no subject
And you.
And everyone.
