Told You

Disclaimer: I don't own Thor. You people know this.


"Believe it or not, brother, I do have fans." Loki flipped through another book. Thor laughed dryly. They were on the topic of popularity, and Thor had claimed no one could possibly love Loki, well, outside their mother, of course.

"You? Fans? You are nothing but a trickster." Loki rolled his eyes. "It took you joining me in Nornheim to finally get a maiden to grace your bed." Loki chuckled this time, still reading.

"That was the first and only time you ever heard me in bed with anyone. I have been with other women, maybe not as many as you, and especially not Fandral, but my silver tongue is useful for more than deceit. But yes, I am quite popular, contrary to your beliefs."

"Where can you possibly have admirers?"

"Midgard." Loki said simply, getting another book. Thor gave a scoff, then a hearty laugh.

"Is this the same Midgard we are speaking of? The one you were trying to rule?"

"The same. I'm especially popular with the women there."

"Lies."

"No, it is the truth, brother. Prepare to eat your words." Loki had Heimdall make a quick search of Midgard, where future tales of he and his brother's adventures were being previewed at this meager palace holding a festival called Comic-Con. Why not pay a visit to a few thousand of those who so rightfully dubbed themselves, "Loki's Army"? He smiled, and summoned a seeing orb for Thor to watch. "Watch and learn."

Loki returned with a smug grin on his face. Thor was speechless. He could not process what he just watched.

"Surely they were charmed." There was no way. There was no possible way...

"No. The fans were quite ecstatic about my presence. You heard their cheers, did you not? I could see the desire of the same women I mentioned earlier in their eyes, I could smell it. Some men had that desire as well, I noticed."

"What could you have possibly used to persuade them to cheer for you as they did?"

"Believe it or not, brother, some Midgardians do not need to be influenced by the Tesseract to claim loyalty to me. Some Midgardian women simply cannot resist my incredible good looks, my wit, my charm and my ability to actually hold intelligent conversation for more than five minutes at a time." Unlike you, was unspoken, yet even Thor understood. Loki couldn't have looked more like a devil, he was wearing a shit eating grin, while Thor was not amused. "I heard I look quite dashing in a suit." Thor looked at Loki for further explanation. "Midgardian men's formal wear, like the ones the son of Coul wears."

"So you expect me to believe that Midgardian women prefer a trickster who would rather read and play tricks over a person who reigns on the battlefield?"

"If the spectacle I made in their arena was any indication, then yes. Now, I am thinking of a phrase..."

"Loki..."

"Quite the simple one actually. I believe I have been saying this since that time in Vanaheim where you were hit with an ambush despite my warnings. Hmmmm, what was it?"

"Not another word out of you."

"Ah! The phrase I was looking for was..." he leaned in close to Thor, for dramatic effect. "Told you." The knot Loki got on his head was well worth it.


Thanks for reading! Just something funny I thought of while reading YouTube comments on the Comic-Con video.
