(Godzilla perks up when hearing Loki speak his name. It's technically the first time anyone's said it since he's been here. It's the first time the lizard directly communicated something to someone and that alone helps perk him up. Even if it's only because of Loki's abilities and only with Loki, it's good enough for him.
It's true that they'd need a monster to prove they're trustworthy and welcome their defense against others. Men of guns and machines with bigger guns wait for the instant they think I've turned against them to fire. Otherwise, they leave me be and only help when necessary. I've seen people interested only in what they could get from me, as well. They never got much.
But even if many of them are like that, there are those who aren't. My adopted father is a human. I know there's no way we can be truly related, but he looks out for me. He loves me. And despite our differences, we're family. I don't trouble myself with thoughts of all the people who are frightened by my presence all the time or those who want me dead; they get pushed aside because I have someone I want to protect. Someone I love. That makes everything I face worthwhile.
I can understand your doubts. My true father only ever saw the ugly side of humanity; it was in his time of need, too. He didn't have someone to support him; he was alone. Maybe if he had the opportunity, his life would've been much better...
Curiously, Godzilla tilts his head to examine the god.
Do you have someone like that in your life? Someone you trust and care about?)
