-he saw a girl standing in front of him. "I mean those kind of days. What were you thinking?" "Loki? Is that you?" "Yes, that's who I am. Still wondering why I'm standing here, in this department?" Tony shook his head, speechless. He looked at her again. "Do you mind changing back? I mean- you're not wearing a bra..." "Oh really? That's why I'm standing here right now. Besides, why would I wear one if I'm going male? I mean, if I'm a girl, you insist that I get the necessary clothing here. But if I'm standing here as a boy, you think it's weird. What exactly is the difference?" She turned back. "I don't know. It's just that boys normally don't wear one, unlike girls. ..Why are we even discussing this! Oh go ahead and do whatever you want. I'll sit over there." Tony said a bit overwhelmed with the situation and walked a few meters further to a seat. There he checked his cell phone while Loki took a closer look at the department.

When he picked out a few pieces and held them up in front of the mirror, he got some strange looks from some of the women. Without going into it, he just said briefly, with a nod of his head, "ladies." and then paid no further attention to them. When he had everything he needed from there, he went to Tony and pressed them into his hand. "can you take these? I still need to look through the other stuff." He asked and then left already. Tony left sitting with the underwear in his hand. "What, you- Loki come back right now. You can't just shove the stuff in my hand and walk away." said Tony awkwardly. "Why not? They're clean and you're just holding them." he said, rummaging through the shelves. Tony propped his forehead on his palm and held the women's underwear in his other hand. With people now looking at him strangely, he assured "I'm just holding these for someone. Don't misunderstand."

Shortly after, Loki approached him with a pile of clothes, which he took with him to the locker room next to him. As he changed, he asked through the cubicle wall "Can you tell me how the clothes fit then?" "Yeah... I will..." he indicated his agreement. He expected Loki to appear as a girl again as he did earlier, however that was not the case. Loki stepped out in black short pants and a black, tight and - relatively short top. "You do realize that this is girl stuff and you're a boy right now. Right?" "Who determined that these are girls' clothes? If they were in the men's department, it would say that's the latest trend in men's. If you look for something like that here, it says it's for girls. Doesn't make much sense, does it?" Why was he constantly at a loss for words with this kid? After all, he couldn't even disagree with him because it all made sense. "It's okay, you're right. Now spin around." Loki turned once slowly in a circle until he looked at the adult again. Tony's gaze lingered on Loki's tattoos. "Seems to fit, but tell me, how long have you had tattoos?" "I got my first one done when I was about 400." he explained briefly and disappeared back into the locker room. "And which one was the first?" asked Tony as Loki left the locker room with a new outfit. "The one on the forearm." he said briefly. This outfit was also relatively short and didn't look like a typical boy, but Tony didn't dare say anything like that again. "And did your family say anything about it?" asked Tony further as Loki presented a third constellation. "They- don't know anything about it." "you've been hiding it for so long? How did you manage that?" "Well, I've always worn long clothes and never really let any of them get that close.... " Loki explained. Tony nodded in understanding.

When Loki came out a fourth time, he asked him something that had been interesting him since the first transformation "how did you actually do that earlier? So with the transforming?" "Magic." said Loki succinctly, looking at himself in the mirror. "What do you mean by magic?" "I'm a shapeshifter, I can actually transform into anything. Sometimes I just feel like being a girl, or rather I feel like one. So I change. If I want to be a boy, then I am a boy. But now it could get complicated. Sometimes I am both at the same time and sometimes just nothing at all... Or I am in the other body while I have the opposite gender." "and how should you recognize that then?" "either I say it or you can tell by the way I act, speak and dress." "Is that the principle of nonbinary?" "No, it's something else. I'm genderfluid." Loki explained as he disappeared once again into the locker room and then stood there in his original clothes.
