"Odin continues to bring me new friends. As if putting Lucille in the same cell as I wasn't enough. How thoughtful."
"The books I sent, do they not interest you?" I turn around and see Frigga is in my cell. She often visits me while Lucille is escorted out to Odin knows where.
"Is that how I'm to whither away eternity? Reading?"
"I've done everything in my power to make you comfortable, Loki."
"Have you?" I lean my hands on a chair and lean my face closer to Frigga, "Does Odin share your concern? Does Thor? It must be so inconvenient them asking after me day and night."
"You know full well it was your actions that brought you here."
"My actions? I was merely giving truth to the lie that I had been fed my entire life, that I was born to be a king."
"A king? A true king admits his faults. What of the lives you took on Earth?" She accuses
My voice progressively rises, "A mere handful compared to the number that Odin has taken himself."
"Your father-"
I angrily shout "He's not my father!
"Then am I not your mother?"
I hesitate for a moment, looking into her soft blue eyes
"You're not."
Frigga smiles sadly with tears in her eyes, "You're always so perceptive about everyone but yourself. "
She takes a step towards me and extends her hands, I go to touch her hand but it goes through hers and my disappointment hits when I remember that she's a hologram.
I drop my head with tears in my eyes as her hologram slowly disappears

"When you came for me, you knew I was in trouble," Jane says in a questioning tone
Thor explains to Jane as they walk together, side-by-side, "Heimdall had lost sight of you. You were no longer on Earth."
"How's that possible?"
They stop in front of the water and lean their arms on the barrier made of stone
"I believe you were and you weren't. The Nine Realms travel within Yggdrasil, orbiting Midgard much the way your planet orbits the sun." Thor gently grabs Jane's hand and romantically provides a demonstration, "And every five thousand years the worlds align perfectly and we call this the Convergence."
