[ There's a little pause before finally there's that familiar burst of that rainbow light before Thor was standing in front of his little brother with a bright and playful smile.
He wastes no time in reaching forward to pick up the slender, younger boy into his muscled arms and pulls him into a tight hug.]
[There's no contest, of course. As ever, there's only getting swept up and crushed, no matter the level of cat-like thrashing and squirming. (Besides, admittedly, somewhere under the protest and huff, Loki's clinging with his own churlish brand of affection.)]

Easier, certainly, but I'm hardly about to drag myself out of bed and get them myself.

This is laziness then?
On both counts?
BROTHER. Put in the little effort.

Date: 2025-06-07 06:47 pm (UTC)Ah. Right.
Come now.
I care for you. You know that.
no subject
Date: 2025-06-07 07:06 pm (UTC)Do I know that?
[he does know that, admittedly, but this seems to be a wallowing in self-pity sort of evening.]
no subject
Date: 2025-06-07 07:15 pm (UTC)Or the version of you I knew.
Do I need to come there and drag you out that bed myself, darling brother?

Date: 2025-06-07 07:33 pm (UTC)What would you wish for?
no subject
Date: 2025-06-07 07:40 pm (UTC)Why? Are you feeling particularly magnanimous today?
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 12:37 am (UTC)Perhaps I just miss you.
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 01:50 am (UTC)[the faintest pause of consideration, then]
Do you?
Miss me?
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 01:57 am (UTC)Of course I do.
I miss you.
In so many ways.
Do you miss me and my affection for you?
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 02:25 am (UTC)Are you really going to make me say?
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 02:37 am (UTC)Say it and I shall attend to your needs for the next day.
no subject
Date: 2025-06-08 02:50 am (UTC)Of course I miss you.

I missed you too, little brother!

Date: 2025-06-08 03:25 am (UTC)--there. Good. That's sufficient.
