Synopsis: Mobius and Loki attend a TVA banquet

~~~~~

Another cycle of timelines had come and gone, which meant another banquet that the TVA hosted in order to show the timekeeper's 'appreciation' for their faithful employees.

But, for Loki, this meant another night spent people-watching in an itchy suit, when he would much rather be alone. Or with Mobius.

Luckily, Mobius would be going to this one. Last timeline cycle, he was out on an assignment with Ravonna, and Loki had to go by himself.

Mobius was one of the only people in the entire organization that Loki could seem to stand. Occasionally he would tolerate a conversation or two with Casey or B-15, but he could only stand so much of them.

Eventually, the day of the banquet arrived, and Loki found himself in one of his conjured suits with a light green tie.

Now, light green was not the shade of green he normally chose to wear, but when he saw the bowtie Mobius planned to wear, he simply couldn't pass up the opportunity to match with him.

A knock sounded at the door of Loki's room, and Loki added a golden clip to his tie before answering the door.

To his surprise, he found Mobius, already dressed for the event. He wore, as expected, a light-green bow tie that perfectly matched Loki's.

Mobius chuckled when he saw Loki's tie, looking down at his own. "Coincidence?" He asked, and Loki smirked. "Possibly."

"What are you doing over here? I thought we were to meet at the banquet?" Loki asked, and Mobius shrugged.

"I got ready a bit early, so I thought I'd stop by and we could go in together." Mobius said, fidgeting with his bow tie.

"That works with me." Loki said, examining the flower that was in Mobius' suit pocket. "What's the flower for?" Loki asked, and Mobius' face reddened slightly.

"Oh- it's just something I found on my last field job. Thought it was pretty." Mobius adjusted the little flower on his jacket.

Loki recognized the flower, it was a green carnation. His mother used to grow them in the palace gardens. He was also aware of the meaning it carried in Asgard, but he doubted that translated to the TVA, so Loki didn't say anything.

"It is." Loki said, and Mobius scrunched his eyebrows. "Pretty. The flower." Loki clarified, stepping out of the room and closing his door. "Shall we get going?" He asked, and Mobius nodded.

They took off down the halls and towards the room the banquet was being held in. When they arrived, the room was already bustling with agents and hunters, along with a few variants.

Loki and Mobius made small talk with some of the others. Well, it was mostly Mobius who made the small talk. Loki just stood there. He was never the best at small talk, and he had no idea how Mobius seemed to be so good at it.

Eventually, Ravonna tapped her glass, silencing the room. She shot them all her award-winning smile–which Loki thought was extremely forced and fake–and addressed the crowd. "The timekeepers are very pleased with you all for successfully protecting the timeline for yet another cycle from the books."
