We're done, New Moore.

We're breaking up. Anything you want to call it. You've done enough.

How do you know that?

[Private]

[freezespirited]

I've read about you? Casually. I didn't read the Poetic Edda a hundred and twenty seven times or anything. That would be weird.

Re: [Private]

[thatboyisamonster]

That piece of knowledge was never in the texts.

[Private]

[freezespirited]

I also read the Prose Edda once or twice.

Re: [Private]

[thatboyisamonster]

It was not there!

[Private]

[freezespirited]

It was in the Gylfaginning. Was it really from one side?

Re: [Private]

[thatboyisamonster]

Not here. If you wish to continue this conversation, we meet in person.

Re: [Private]

[freezespirited]

You at the apartment?

Re: [Private]

[thatboyisamonster]

Yes.

[Private --> Action]

[freezespirited]

Be there in a moment.

[It takes maybe five minutes. A cold gust of wind and handful of snowflakes signals his arrival before he even climbs through the window. He hesitates, then shuts the window for good measure to prevent their conversation from falling to any stray ears, and hops onto a chair, tiptoed on its back.]

You want a soda or anything before we start talking?

Re: [Private --> Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

Unnecessary.

[He inclines his head to show he heard him. He's never seen Loki look like this before. Upset, maybe, annoyed, plenty of times, but never to this extent.]

You look like you're about to lose it. What is it?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

I did not know my true parentage until recently.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

...Oh. What happened?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

Frost Giants are not well received. They are monsters, thieves. Murderers in the night. And I was one of them.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

Why didn't you know?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

A parent's attempt to make his foster child feel normal.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

Huh. Who was that? I'm guessing it didn't work?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

Obviously, it backfired.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

How did you find out?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

My true form was revealed to me.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

By the ones who raised you?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

By the Frost Giants.

[Action]

[freezespirited]

They told you? Did they know?

Re: [Action]

[thatboyisamonster]

No. Their touch removed the illusion.
