A storm of emotions washes over on Thor’s expression,  coming in waves.  For many months now  (or rather years. )   Thor has felt lost.  Indulging himself in alcohol   ⅋  solitude hasn’t quelled the endless black hole in his chest that seemed to drain him of all his energy.   If he couldn’t drown the sorrows,  perhaps he could grow around it.  Fill the hole with what he once loved.  Humanity.  It began with the Guardians of the Galaxy,   the revisiting New Asgard.   Perhaps this would be his last stop.

The æsir’s hand would capture Strange’s elbow,  an odd attempt of grounding himself.   Ԩis final decision has been made.    A morning with the Sorcerer Supreme,  filled with thoughtful discussions   ⅋  idle chatter.     Ⲧruth be told he’d like to make a habit of this,   the ability to stop by whenever he pleased to say hello.    

His fingers wrapped tightly around the teacup, a deliberate intensity in his grip, yet his gaze remained fixed, distant. Strange's bedside manner persisted as a remnant from a career-long gone. This time, its appearance had shifted into a burning ember, more empathetic than the cold, precise, admirably balanced mind he had practiced medicine with.
            
            It was no coincidence that strays without homes kept finding their way to the sanctum. Vishanti knows Stephen had stumbled into his fair share of soup kitchens hot on the heels of drug-induced delusions. "Loneliness is a permanent side effect of love," Stephen mused, "The constant terror of loss keeps me alert." As he set his cup down, the saucer materialized from nowhere and now lingered.
            
            The sudden visit did beg the question: where were the Avengers? Thor was going through a trying time, that much was evident. It made more logical sense for him to turn to his closer companions. No amount of flattery could negate that Steve would've greeted the god with open arms—even during the wee hours of the morning. Hopefully, he could deduce that as the pair carried on.
            
            "Perhaps we should interrupt some more classes, I'll give you a tour," Stephen murmured a wry smile tugging at his lips, " but I warn you, the only permanence here is impermanence." The cloak hugged the doctor's figure, not propelling him towards the maze of staircases as one might expect, but instead, it hung lazily, meeting the god's eye. 
            
            " It's humbling to hear someone so beloved speak of feeling lonely. What companionship do you seek to find here?"

But at the end of the he’ll bully himself into the spotlight.   To be seen,  to be heard.  This time,  Thor wins.   Something about the æsir’s posture is a bit lighter,  Strange’s words soothe the anxiety slowly forming in his gut.   For once it seems like Thor has nothing else to say in order to counter Stephen.   (…)   Maybe he’s still stunned because he actually said yes to this pitiful,  melancholic,   wet dog of a god. It’s hard to subdue the mild source of joy he feels.

WE COULD BE VILLAINS TOGETHER.    A SIGHT FOR THE WORLD TO BEHOLD.    BESIDES,   THIS BAR.   .    IT NEEDS ADJUSTMENTS.    WOULDN’T YOU AGREE?   PERHAPS IT’S TOO OUTDATED.   ❛ ❜

maybe he would have started with the fact that in this last death he only survived for thor. just so loki’s last words to him weren’t a lie. that since he last saw his brother he had thought of a million other things he’d say to him. that the recurring thought kept him creative. it kept him grounded. it kept him surviving.
            
            But he hadn’t been raised differently. to vocalize any of that verbal mush would be a breath away from admitting the one expectant sliver that wouldn’t leave him. loki had longed for thor’s return. a return that never came and one he wouldn’t hold against him any longer. no one ever came and no one would. because no one ever saved loki; no one was meant to. at his core, loki would rather suffer the weight of these thoughts than burden his brother with them. he settled back into his oldest most practiced role. one he hadn’t picked up in a while. unfortunately he was his brother’s keeper on the off chance that he too / could / be kept again.
            
            His arms met thor’s back, which wasn’t particularly tight but for someone as physically reserved as loki, he clung to him as if thor were the only thing keeping him tethered to reality . 
            
            “ I decided it makes more sense for you to go first . who else is going to make a case for me in valhalla ? “ he laughed with calculated ease , the timing almost as impeccable as the delivery . It was easy to force a laugh because the god actually found the idea delightfully absurd.
            
            he had no place in valhalla.
            
            “ ah, but what is the great hall to my brother’s bar ? “ . . . nothing worth surviving for.

loki, ever the performer, waited patiently for his latest role. He had been the neglected son, the vengeful prince, and even the dutiful king. suffice to say, they'd gone completely off script—so far off that, despite all his creativity, loki couldn’t imagine how this scene would end. Initially, loki didn't partake; instead, he allowed the force of the thunderer to act upon him. silent permission traveled on an icy breath, and what he lacked in enthusiasm,  he made up for it with the reverence he poured into every unspoken thought.
            
            loki had cycled through many philosophies over the centuries he’d been alive—existentialism, pessimism, nihilism, and naturally, absurdism. admitting that Thor’s presence might have altered the outcome would mean acknowledging that a different path even existed. where did that fit with loki’s ever-shifting worldview? he hadn't decided—perhaps he never would. maybe that indecision was his humanity—if there had ever been any. / If there was any left. /  even the briefest reflection of his life left an ominous weight on his mind, particularly when there was no audience and seemingly no reason to persevere.
            
            would thor have persevered ? could he have survived without a savior , without the hope that kept most people alive ?  loki had never mourned the loss of hope. how do you grieve for something you never had? he could mourn the idea of it—and , in a way , he had.
            
            he would mourn this .
            
            " one of us had to be the villain , thor. I'm glad it was me ," his voice steady but distant , “ it wouldn't have suited you ."
            
            loki had survived for so long, the idea of survival had become commodified, just another part he played from a script often forced upon him. there were a lot of things loki wanted to say. maybe , had they been raised differently he would have told thor that in every other universe loki would have chosen for it to be him. he’d have told thor he knew still knew what fondness was because he felt it for him.  ++

There’s always reasoning behind his actions, despite the aloof attitude he’s applied to himself in recent years.   He’s not an idiot after all. 
                                    HE’S SATORU GOJO.

            ⧼      SKEM—BYED,    ”to make one thin, emaciated and dried out”     grants her the ability to create illusions.  one’s mental state is temporarily impaired,  to a more unstable state.  ( pretty much a hallucination ),   deceptions seem real to the target.   this requires an extensive amount of cursed energy and is extremely draining.  the easier the manifestation,  the last energy it takes.  the more complicated,  the more draining  (and)  deadly it is.
            
            ⧼      V⃨i⃨s⃨a⃨g⃨e⃨:     yua’s appearance is based on her skem—byed ability.  her form or appearance is similar to a void, blurred.. on its the lowest intensity. under heavier usage, the viewer subconsciously chooses how to view her.
            
            ⧼      DOMAIN EXPANSION,    HEAVENS EMANATION:      *the strength and range of domain varies on the amount of cursed energy yua places.   only has a distance of 120 meters,  will be ineffective if it exceeds this limit.*    creates a room with four statues representing the four maras.  resembles a traditional chinese doctor office,  (burning incense,  large scrolls of written chinese script,  etc.)   within this domain,  the needles may hit any target.  getting caught in this domain without any counter measure causes you to be a “patient.”
