Loki paces outside of the healing room doors impatiently until Thor catches his arm to stop him. Thor stares pleadingly into Loki's glaring eyes.
"Leave me be Thor. I have no need for your pity." Loki spits angrily and Thor winces slightly.
"Brother you must not do this to yourself. Father's condition is not your fault and neither is our sister's." Thor regrets his words with Loki's next explosion.
"He's NOT my father and she's NOT my sister!" Loki shouts as he wrenches his arm from Thor's grip.
"Then am I truly not your brother?" Thor asks softly and Loki pauses before he replies.
"No... You're not." Loki swallows and stares into Thor's sorrowful eyes before the healer steps out of the room to them.
"The AllFather is resting now and can be moved to his room, unfortunately, we have no clue as to when he will awaken." She states.
"Thank you, and what of Kira?" Thor asks her anxiously.
"Her vital signs are weak but given the right treatment, she'll make a full recovery." Thor sighs in relief. "But my lord, there is more..."
"Yes, what is it?" Thor asks.
"We do not have the items required for her treatment..."
"Then what is it we need?" Thor steps up to her impatiently and Loki rolls his eyes pushing his brother away.
"Stop crowding her Thor and let her speak." Loki glances back at the healer "Please continue."
"We need three items. A goblet forged in Hel's dwellings, a flower that grows in Jötunheimr's ice, and water from Urda's Well."
"How will these items help Kira? I've heard of no herbal treatment such as these." Loki questions uneasily.
"Loki do not question what the healer has asked for us to gather. We must do everything in our power to make Kira well again!" Thor drags Loki away after nodding to the healer.
"How exactly are we going to get all of those items? If I'm not mistaken we aren't allowed around Urda's well without Odin's consent, I'm forbidden to see Hel let alone her dwellings, and we left Jötunheimr in a worse state then what it was before!" Loki rants and Thor finally stops.
"In father's absence I am the ruling King, problem solved!" Thor leaves Loki to pack for the journey as he goes to do the same.
"You are a right idiot sometimes Thor... if only that women on Midgard had really changed you for good," Loki whispers before starting his packing.
Asgardian Time Skip!
"Thor this is madness!" Frigga chides and looks to Loki. "And how can you let him pull you along like this?"
"I tried to convince him otherwise but he refused to listen. You know how he gets, Mother." Frigga sighs
"Why would a healer of Asgard even need such things?" She mutters light.
"The only thing that matters is Kira's well being!" Thor's normal stupidity gains back both his mother's and his brother's attentions
"And risk your life and that of your brother's?!" Frigga crosses her arms and Thor swallows.
"Kira is my sister and even more so Loki's, she would and has done a thousand fold what we are doing now," Thor says in a hushed tone and Frigga drops her arms as Loki averts his eyes. After a few minutes, Frigga sighs and drops her arms.
"As much as I dislike your plan I must commend you on your resolve... just come back to me safely... both of you." she cups both of their cheeks in either of her hands "You are and will always be my sons." Loki easily leans into her hand and Thor smiles.
"Worry not mother, we will return to you unscathed!" Thor brags and Loki rolls his eyes. Just as the two start to depart from the room and towards their horses Frigga catches Loki's arm. Loki looks at her in surprise and stops in his tracks.
"Loki you must be wary, what ever magic that healer plans to use will most definitely not be to heal Kira. I will do my best to find all that I can here while you must do your best out there. I packed a small back with different books on the items, it's now attached to your horse's saddle." Loki nods lightly and his lips thin into a line of seriousness.
"As you wish, but be safe. Whatever she is hiding she will most likely do anything in her power to keep it a secret." Loki warns as he holds to Frigga's hand tightly. Frigga smiles and kisses his knuckles softly.
"For all of your faults, you have still grown into a young man I am proud to call my son," Frigga smiles up at Loki who relaxes more and smiles back at her.
"As I am proud to call you my mother." He hugs her tightly before retracting and striding out the door to set forth on Thor and his own trip.
"What took you so long brother? It is not as though this will be the last time you see her" Thor looks to him teasingly and Loki smirks.
"Is it too much to comfort our distraught mother when both of her sons are setting off on a near-impossible journey to which they might not return?" Loki chides and Thor laughs.
"It is only an impossible journey if you let yourself believe that it is!~"
