Loki? Is that you?


[Steve sank down slowly, sitting on the floor a little ways away. He peered at the snake with a slight smile. It was hard to say just how much of Loki might exist in something so much smaller. Then again, it was magic. Steve still had no clue how the hell it worked.

He grinned and leaned closer, though not that close yet. If Loki was in there, he'd probably react to both a little teasing and some compliments.]


You are a pretty one, aren't you? You look like you're made of jewels Loki. I think you're literally sparkling.
