It's just possible he hasn't been seen in a little while (hardly any time at all, if you're a god), but now Loki's out in the snowy windy night, building a snowman. And he's wearing a woolly hat, and fuzzy mittens with strings on, and having generally a great time putting this splendid little person together. He's already got a happy half-circle of

Wednesday observed before he said anything, amused, and deciding that this person was familiar to a point that made him almost uneasy.

After all, he had already met his old friend Low Key here.

Still, he was amused.

"Making something?"

[one_eyed_dad]

"So..." he said, testing a theory. "How did you come about arriving here?"

Nah. His eye is missing, but thats old, old news.

"I wandered in last year sometime. It's a common phenomenon."

Quite. It'd be weirder if it weren't.

[one_eyed_dad]

"Hm," he said, furrowing his brows. "You didn't...." he trailed off.

He had died. And so had Low Key. And Sweeney. And Sweeney's boy, Jackrabbit.

"Didn't-?"

Most of Loki's headmates are thoroughly dead, if it's any consolation.

[one_eyed_dad]

"Well a lot of people who came here did so through a rather bloody means. Myself included."

[notwocouches]

"Oh, you're dead?" That's surprising only in that gods usually aren't. "Another common phenomenon."

[one_eyed_dad]

"Yes. Well. Your American counterpart as well."

[notwocouches]

"I think I'd heard. Interesting mess, that."

[one_eyed_dad]

"You have no idea," he said, a little bitterly.

[notwocouches]

"No; I never asked."

Wednesday wasn't going to tell him, then, unless he did.

It was...a little embarassing. Though he wouldn't admit that.

Personally, Loki thinks the whole thing (or what he knows of it) was incredibly stupid. Something about cunning plans needing to work. But, um, that's him, and he likes to think he wouldn't have messed up as badly. So don't mind him.

"So, is there a reason you're building a snowman?" he mused, deciding to change the subject.

[notwocouches]

Subject changes are good! He grins, crookedly. "Just for fun."

[one_eyed_dad]

"Hm..." He looked at it. "Something's missing."
