Loki did everything he could to get there. He looked for every kind of evidence he could get on the TVA. Then Mobius said that they found a variant that knew about a woman and the multiverse. Loki used magic to force him to talk and he eventually said that he was taking them both to where she was.

It was afternoon in Midgard, and Loki, Mobius and Brad used a Tempad to get to a Mcdonald's. At first, Loki was very confused. He never ate at a Mcdonald's, but he knew what it was. Mobius was instantly mad.

"She's not here! You're lying to us!"

"She is inside." Brad said

"You're trying to fool us. I don't believe you." Mobius insisted.

Brad continued assuring that the lady they were looking for was there. Then Mobius did the last thing Loki would expect: slapped Brad in the face.

"Mobius! Wait!" Loki was shocked.

"What? Do you think he's telling the truth?"

"I don't know, he might be. She can be literally anywhere."

"Ok then," Mobius said, "Let's go inside all together".

The three of them walked into the place, looking everywhere to find the woman. It didn't take more than two seconds for Loki to notice. She was there. Sylvie was there. At the counter, with a Mcdonald's uniform. She was real.

Mobius couldn't believe it. He felt kinda bad for slapping the Variant, even though he didn't know him very much.

"Just go there, talk to her." Mobius encouraged Loki.

Loki hesitated. He didn't know what to say. Was that his Sylvie? Wouldn't it be weird to just go there? Did she hate him? So many things crossed his mind.

He finally walked toward the counter. Sylvie just finished taking an order.

"Thank you!" she said and smiled. It was definitely a fake smile, but it wasn't bad. She was living a normal day. Until she looked to the next client.

Her smile disappeared in a fraction of a second. She couldn't believe it. Loki? How did he find her? It couldn't be an accident, could it? What was he doing?

As he walked to her, she decided to just pretend it wasn't him. She pretended like nothing happened between them. It was easier that way.

Those seconds of staring were so long. The tension was loud. She tried to avoid direct eye contact.

"Are you gonna order something, or...?"

Loki sighed and looked down. He knew she recognized him. That was just her playing... right? Was it because she was mad at him? Was she scared? Loki looked at her again.

"Really?"

She didn't answer

"Don't do this, please." He said.

Even Brad could feel the tension. Mobius watched it all like it was a movie.

"I'm not going anywhere until I get some apple pie" Mobius said and Sylvie noticed him in the back.

So Loki didn't come alone. Maybe it wasn't anything personal. Maybe they just wanted to solve multiversal problems. Maybe the TVA wanted to talk to her. But looking Loki in the eyes, she could tell he was there for her.

"Don't pretend like you don't know me." He said

"Sir, this is a Mcdonald's." She insisted.

"Don't start with this now. We've been through too much to forget about it. I don't know what is happening to me or to the multiverse. But I know I want to be with you no matter what."
