Stifling the rush of irritation at his busy-body younger half-sister and her continuous tirades about duty or whatever it was she was yapping about this time, Loki very deliberately yawned. "All you wanted was a family reunion? Pity. I was hoping it would be something fun." He stretched indolently, green eyes slitted as he watched her. "Though I suppose for some they might be the only amusement they get in their lives."
He considered answering Akemi's questioning look with a mournful tale, but even if he would do that to Eyfura and Baldur, the idea of implying to his little sister that her hero big brother was dead made him - yes, Loki the bitter, cruel, hard-hearted Loki - very uncomfortable to consider. Instead he gave her an indifferent shrug. "Left him with a healer. Assuming he hasn't killed her by now, he should be back to his usual villainous self shortly."
Glancing back to Eyfura, he added, "You all are free to do whatever you want to do, but if you expect me to hop on the 'Hroovitnir family pack' raft you are going to be sadly disappointed. I left the home pack for a reason, I'm not signing on for another one." And he rather doubted Hati would sign up either - he had a feeling being around his family brought Hati as many bad memories as it brought Loki. Loki dealt with it by heckling them and making rude jokes... how would a big yellow-eyed rage monster deal with spending time wallowing in those memories? And how would they all feel spending time with the one wolf in the family who looked exactly like Hroovitnir? Interesting thought... maybe he should convince Hati to join them in their silly quest just so he could see what would happen.
