CHARACTERS: loki (MCU) & u
DATE: post-rescue mission, pre-next mission??
WARNINGS: n/a
SUMMARY: a new and exciting(???) arrival is exploring Oska...
Arrival in Oska, following the short (but definitely anything but boring) time in the unknown forest, is very welcome. It's warm and dry, and Loki is quick to claim a room of his own. In the cavernous castle, he roams the halls, taking note of rooms of interest (CYOA). You might find him popping his head into the training room, kitchen, or just wandering curiously through the halls. Or, perhaps, you might encounter him in one of the following places:
i. viewing room
Though he hadn't intended to stay in any one of the rooms he found (exploration first, in-depth investigation later), this place catches and holds his attention. Loki steps inside, chin lifted as his gaze sweeping slowly over the shifting frames. He walks along one wall, then the next, eyes inevitably drawn back to a section of mirrors he'd already looked over when movement shows that they've changed. It's overwhelming, dizzying, and he could stay here for hours on end if he allowed himself to.
Not yet, though, not now, not when he knows next to nothing of Oska and the other people here. Perhaps later, perhaps another day. Though, another few minutes will be of no harm...
ii. mists
How could he resist? The mists hover there, a clear line from a distance that fades the closer one approaches. Loki paces the edges of the thick mist, half-shrouded. The castle is just barely visible, and if he takes but a few more steps into the clouds, he has no doubt it'll be entirely too easy to lose one's way. Another day, perhaps, to better prepare. For now, though, he walks the boundary of reality.
iii. library
Eventually, as he knew would happen, Loki ends up in the library, prowling the stacks and flipping through books that catch his interest. The sheer wealth of knowledge available here easily rivals the library in Asgard's palace, where they were content with what they knew and had experienced. Asgard is the Realm Eternal, unchanging, stagnant; for all the Loki idealizes it, he's well aware of the rot beneath the gold.

"I didn't choose to come," he says shortly, "I am no one's slave, and do not enjoy the thought of being held at the whim of others. And so, I will do what it takes so I might leave."
Besides, he's curious.

"Welcome to the team," she says, none too genially. As far as she's concerned, if he turns on ALASTAIR in an effort to get what he wants a little faster, it might even be to their benefit. She'll wait and see.

"You'll have to wait for the fruit basket. It's on order."

Of greater interest than finding the right biting remark to answer Loki was Tony's reaction. She approached him and placed a ready hand on his upper arm to stay him from undoing the disarmament that had only just begun.
"Come on," She urged.

"Keep your nose clean."

He rolls his eyes at the dramatic exit, how could he not? And manfully resists the urge to make a face in the direction they left.
Loki can, at least for now, be the mature one.
