[ whether or not loki shall actually heed his brother's orders and stay put is a mystery, but his eyes shine with sincerity when he smiles, and nods. even the rough brush of thor's fingers seems a strange and exhilarating thing now, and loki cannot help but think that there is so much to explore, still. so much to learn.
it's tempting to just say screw dinner!, as the mortals might. tempting to snag thor's wrist and keep him here, because that kiss alone was enough to make him feel warm again, to make him loathe to let his brother leave.
but that's silly. there will be time enough, later. all the night, and all tomorrow if he wishes, and the next day, and the next, perhaps. as loki steps back to pull open the door and allow thor to pass, his mind wanders, his thoughts stray - this place is all he has now, isn't it? there is nothing else. there is nothing to go back to. what does that mean, for thor? there is still so much to understand, so many questions to ask .. but later. soon. loki watches his brother's broad back, the noble furl of his cape, and waves vigorously, with a bright smile that does not quite reach his eyes. ]
