[ 'Have I done something' he asks, as if he doesn't already know the answer, as if he thinks he can hide from Thor that he's done something horrible and unforgivable, something like stealing an blue stone and sentencing most of their race to extinction by it. Because he couldn't just escape with the damn thing and save half the universe. Instead, he had to hand it over to a power-hungry madman, and for what? To save Thor's miserable life?
Yes, Thor's pissed. And it's in his steps, and the blue like lightning in his eyes, and the hard set of his jaw and the clench of his fists, and the violent way he grabs Loki and hugs him crushingly tight. His voice is low as the rumble of thunder as his cheek presses to Loki's neck, but there's something that isn't anger in it. ]
When have you ever not done something?
[ 'No resurrections this time,' The words still haunt him as much as that smell, and the cold that came after, and the sight of his brother's bleeding eyes. And just because his hands don't pass through his brother's arms, that doesn't mean this isn't an illusion, or that he isn't more a fool for clinging to it this way. But he's been this kind of fool before. His brother always brings out the worst in him. ]
