A Different Shade Of Green

Fear Of Falling Down

It was set. They had decided that it would be best to hit Odin where it hurts. Loki wanted revenge for everything, hiding the truth about being a frostgiant? That deserved revenge! Thor had rebuked him at first, saying that it would make him just as bad as his father, but secretly, he wanted revenge too, to prove Odin wrong and to show him that he made a huge mistake not letting search parties beyond the realm.

But the hardest bit wasn't the revenge, it was the slow improvement to Loki's health. He had been bound to his bed for the last three days and he hadn't done much walking in Jotünheim either; he strongly remembered being dragged through the icy palace on his knees. Thor had done the best he could on his leg, bandaging it, hoping that it would protect his leg from minor accidents. It was all he could do at this moment in time. Loki stared at the crutches at the side of his bed, he sighed. "okay, I'm ready" Thor lifted him gently off his bed and put him softly on the floor. Loki grimaced; his leg was never going to be In such a state as it was before Jotünheim, he had left a broken leg for three weeks without medical attention. He put his arms into the crutches. His wrists had all but healed, there was obvious scarring but he didn't care too much for it; the stitches had stopped him from bleeding to death, he could handle scars. Thor held the top of his arm, his back would have been better means of support but it was still tender and he didn't want to risk hurting him more. Loki slowly got the hang of walking on the crutches, he became tired easily, his body was weak, not moving had taken it's toll on his physical strength. With time he got used to moving with the crutches, he looked up at Thor, glee in his eyes and he giggled, the giggle sent a tingle through Thor, it was the cutest thing he'd ever heard; Thor knew that Loki was always going to be his younger brother, his innocence brought up the best in him. "You have no idea how much your happiness lights up my world" Thor found comfort in Loki, the weak figure he'd seen recently had hurt him, but now, he was happy and seemed determined to carry on and persevere, it was all Thor ever wanted.

"Are you sure you want to do this Loki?" Thor was unsure wether this was the best idea, everyone would be there at his arrival, it would be hugely humiliating for Odin. Loki turned to him and lifted an eyebrow "He deserves it Thor! Hen kept me in the dark all this time. I had to find out my true identity from a monster! Do you know how that feels? It's ok for you, you are and Odinson, but what about me? I don't know what I am. I have to show him how much it hurts." Thor sighed, Loki had his heart set on this plan, he could see the determination in his eyes even now. "Ok Loki, but if it backfires, then youre screwed; I may have been able to save you from the frost giants, but Odin when he's mad? That's a different story."
