[ Loki walks around the table to stand closer, not enough to be a threat but nearer with the steady old green in his gaze resting on Tony. ]

Something is broken in you, I understand. I have for some time. You are less hale and hearty than I knew you back home because you have lived in other worlds, made other realms and people your sanctuary. And they've been gone, and you're here, and you are angry within. I have tried coaxing and bothering you to be an echo of yourself to no avail, so I will not bother to beg now but allow me to say this without lies and then I will leave.

You are a fire in a rainstorm. Your crown was self-made and it elevated you to the skies with your own genius. That is not a small thing in any universe, Tony, it is the act of an ascending king, and when you draw such notice you will never lie flat upon the floor and escape it ever again. Speaking as a reluctant symbol myself: be kind to a child. Not for his praise of the king who can never hide, but for it being a kind act in and of itself.

I do not think you heartless, no matter what has lain in your breast.

[ He will back off and head out, as promised, if Tony wants to let him. ]

[ never thought the day would come when he'd receive a lecture from loki.

he isn't going to stop him from leaving, but it seems loki has achieved his aim anyway. as much as tony doesn't want to disrupt his newfound peace, he won't be able to ignore his words. be kind to a child — it's almost comical who it's coming from.

he will see what he can do, but ultimately, he doesn't think it'll be of much use. ]
