[ okay, that is very flattering and loki can't help but grin, a pink flush on his cheeks. ]

[unkindled_madness]

I can better attend you once we're on the ground.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki laughs as they slowly arrive back at the dock. ]

I look forward to it.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth will hand control back over to Loki for the docking process. They may not need to... land it exactly, but that's the hard part, right?]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki lands it easily. after all, he's been using these since he was young. once it's down, he takes sephiroth's hand. ]

Do you want to see the rest of the town?

[unkindled_madness]

[He gives Loki's hand a squeeze.]

Of course. Show me everything.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki grins as he takes sephiroth into the village. there are a bunch of shops like the infinity cones for ice-cream, pubs and assorted viking goods for tourists to buy. towards the amphitheatre are plays being shown, specifically, a play about hela and ragnarok. in the distance, upon a cliff, is a large statue of a woman wielding mjolnir. jane foster. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth will pause to watch the play for a bit, curious and because he knows how Loki enjoys them.

And look, this one isn't about his death! He can't help a chuckle at their "transformation."]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki shrugs. ]

It's not as fancy as mine, but they make do.

[unkindled_madness]

It's certainly amusing.

Is Hela's... crown an exaggeration, or did it really look like that?

[dothelokimotion]

No, she really looked like that. More or less.

[unkindled_madness]

A bit excessive, don't you think?

[dothelokimotion]

We're not a family known for our restraint.

[unkindled_madness]

[He snorts.]

I suppose not.

[dothelokimotion]

I saw this when I first came here.

It was . . . nice to be remembered. Even with something silly like this.

[unkindled_madness]

[His expression softens.]

You thought you'd be forgotten. You mean something to them.

[dothelokimotion]

Yes. Maybe it's not a statue or anything grand.

[ loki's gaze turns to the audience. it's always packed. ]

But people seem entertained.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth glances towards the statue on the cliff.]

A statue is a rather passive thing, anyway.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his lips twitch. ]

You don't think they're majestic?

[unkindled_madness]

They can be attractive, but after a while, they tend to become a part of the background.

[He gestures to the stage.] This requires participation. There is an actor who studied to portray you. He rehearsed this story, likely spent time thinking about it. Is that not a better legacy?

[dothelokimotion]

[ huh. he never thought of it that way. ]

I suppose it is.

Though before I had a gold statue and a play.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth laughs.]

Statues can take time. Perhaps one is forthcoming.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki shrugs. the last time he came here, he was more upset about it. now, he feels more grounded. certain. ]

If it does, it does. It's no longer my concern.

I'm happy with the way things are.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth eyes him for a moment. If that's genuine, then he's glad.]

I suppose we wouldn't get to see it very often, anyway.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he sighs, though it is not particularly melancholic. ]

No. I think it's time to let this all go.
