One With Earth [Avengers]

*Bonus* Thor's Monologue

You are my brother. I don't care if you are not bound to me by blood. We were raised together, we played together, we fought together, does that mean nothing to you? Odin saved you and raised you as his own. Our mother loved and adored you-- she still does. Our sisters always treated you better than they treated me, they looked up to you. Ygritte a little too much. What is the point of all this? The point is you never wonted for anything. Our family has brought you up to be a skilled fighter and a smart man. This is not the Loki I know. He wouldn't take his anger out on the weak and innocent. This is not a trick my brother would go through with. This is beneath him. This... This war you are set on starting is not the Loki I know. This is not the Loki I was raised with. You wouldn't change just because you found out Laufey was your real father. You can't be angry that Odin didn't tell you when you were younger, would you have really wanted to know? You can't hate him for not telling you when you were older, you had just begun your tricks and mischief, he didn't want to risk losing you, like he did now. As soon as you found out you rebelled. You disappear and you resurface now? Wanting to rule Midgard? You wouldn't slaughter millions of innocent lives just to rule. I know you. You're too proud. You want to earn your rule, you want people to choose you because they want you not because you would kill them otherwise. I keep waiting for you to laugh in my face for falling for your lie, for you to tell me it was all a trick. You can't imagine how relieved I would be if that were the case. How happy I would be to learn it was just a game to make us worry. Frigga is the most concerned of us all. Does that make you happy? To know you are causing our mother grief? Causing her pain? It shouldn't. So come home. Return to Asgard and your family and your friends. End our suffering. Brother, Loki, please.
