“A game of hypotheticals!” Loki laughs brightly, turning in a slow circle. “My turn, then: what are you going to do if I don't?”
He does, though, he does; lets the question hang as he completes his turn before setting Galen back down on his feet with a surprising gentleness. Careful hands tug at his shirt to straighten it before Loki steps back, and no harm done.
“You should watch your temper. Astonishing, your species. You can be snatched from your homes and deposited in a strange place, clearly outclassed, outgunned, outsmarted, and you still can't let go of your hubris.” Truly astonishing. Unmatched in their overestimation of themselves and their capabilities. In that regard they outdo even Loki himself, which if he's entirely honest with himself is something of an impressive feat.
“Pride is such an insidious thing, is it not? Look how it's made you put your foot in it.” He clicks his tongue, shaking his head.
