AU Loki is confused by his username.

[not_insane]

It is a true statement about myself to be sure but I still do not understand why you chose that out of anything else.

Then again you are a strange individual normally anyway. After all you are awaiting the arrival of those I know a little too gleefully. Should I be concerned?

Comments

[not_insane]

Then banishment.

[He seemed to understand now.]

Yes though Thor it seems I have figured out exactly what has occurred and I can tell you that you specifically have not harmed an innocent being.

[odinsonthor]

[A smile brims his lips and he embraces his brother once more, letting out a sigh of relief]

Did I fall and hit my head? I feared what may have occurred. But i trust your words.

[not_insane]

Not exactly but I wouldn't be surprised if you did.

[He returned the embrace before continuing.]

It seems we are not from the same Asgard. There are two Asgards, two situations. One where I seem to have become the wayward son, your Asgard, and one where you become the wayward son, my universe.

[odinsonthor]

[His face looks grim and he turns his head away from him]

So then..

[If what Loki said is true, then the brother in his universe, is still astray causing trouble and these thoughts upset him. Why couldn't this be the true situation for once.]

So the smiles do not remain?

[not_insane]

At least not for your Loki but this is a ray of hope, isn't it?

Since only the events leading to our wayward behavior are different then perhaps our respective brothers can return home eventually?

[odinsonthor]

Yes, it is inevitable they will return. Although without troublesome siblings I believe we would suffer from boredom!

[not_insane]

Perhaps but I imagine our respective brothers will keep us preoccupied with slightly less troublesome antics.

[odinsonthor]

Slightly less troublesome yes. But why couldn't they let us rest!

If all else fails

[Holds out hand as a gesture]

I am glad to have see this potential for good

[not_insane]

I appreciate that Thor and the same goes to you.

Then out of curiosity does this situation mean that you are a member of The Avengers?

[odinsonthor]

Indeed I am. What do you know of it here?

I'm guessing it may have an opposite purpose.

[not_insane]

No though that would be a good guess.

I am a member of the Avengers actually.

[odinsonthor]

[A look of surprise shows on his face. But he again has to remember, this is not the same Loki that he knows.]

So I guess you do battle against forces, such as myself

[He hangs his head the thought still making him uneasy]

[not_insane]

Among other things.

[He wasn't sure what to say but he finally did add,]

I don't think what my Thor is doing is just him. His decision to conquer Earth was his own but I think something is controlling his emotions, making him more erratic and more violent.

[odinsonthor]

Are you sure it was earth he was after?

But I understand your concern. Like something feeds on the negative emotion, excellerating it, fueling the plight.

[not_insane]

He was very vocal about his intentions. He intended to use Earth as an example to show Father he could rule a realm and how to do it properly.

[odinsonthor]

What of father?

[He holds out his hands and stares to them]

So in this realm it was I?

[Knowing it wasn't directly him that had caused the problems here, he still felt some form of guilt weight over his shoulders. He also wondered how Loki could speak to him directly knowing of what went on here, did he feel the same leniency as he did for his brother?]

[not_insane]

Father is alive and he only wishes now for your return. Though he does not admit it all of the time.

[He nodded but was quick to add,]

Brother I said before, the actions were not entirely that of the Thor I know, something was guiding his rage and his actions.

[odinsonthor]

I know I heard your words. But do you hold no anger towards him? That he allowed his guard down to be controlled by another almost?

[not_insane]

At first I was but then I realized that if I tried I could do the same thing to a person, manipulate their being with magic. It was something I obsessed over when you became less than the god I knew.

I realized someone had pulled you down then and someone had to lift you back up, somehow.

[odinsonthor]

Much like a puppet on strings. It worries me knowing how easily situations could of been different.

Does that though not bother you so? Or do you tend not to dwell on it so?

[not_insane]

It does bother me knowing that I could of just as easily been fighting people I now call friend.

However I think about the fact that I am me and Thor will be brought back eventually.

[odinsonthor]

[He nods to him and gives a gentle smile]

We keep faith and do not falter. In the end there shall be peace
