Well, Loki was now neck deep into this entire thing.

Beforehand it had always been Thor insisting on dragging him out on 'adventures'

Now there was this entire merry band of Midgardians… and by Merry band that just meant Tony. Though people affiliated with Shield would sometimes ask for his assistance when it came to unexplained phenomenons, which meant they were either magic or alien. So Loki had to hand it to them, it was probably the smarter thing to do to just ask him for help.

And as such he had become part of quite a few adventures with this so called team dubbed the avengers by the public.

Fighting monsters or just corrupt humans, sometimes it was even enjoyable to be part of this thing over the years.

Though Lokis number one concern was always Asgard. They were striving though, it was indeed rather ideal.

That day though, something felt a bit off. Thor was no-where to be seen, no one had seen him. That was unlike Thor.

Loki was the one who would some times take off without a trace, not Thor, he always made sure to tell where he was going in case he was needed… He didn't even pick up his phone. It was unlike him.

Without much thinking Loki started to walk himself, walk across the cliffs going near the coast line, the strong ocean always being on his left side but far beneath him.

For how long Loki was walking, he wasn't quite sure.

But finally… He saw him. Thor, sitting all alone on a lonely wooden bench at the edge of the tall cliff, bend forward, looking towards the ocean.

Loki sucked in a deep breath, then finally walked over to Thor until he was right behind him. Then he halted, not sure what to do now.

There was an awkward silence… Had Thor noticed him? Loki had been accused of always sneaking up on people, even when he didn't mean to. He swallowed. "Brother." he finally spoke in a careful voice.

"Hello Loki." Thor replied.

Loki frowned slightly. "What are you doing out here?" he asked. "Thor."

"Sorry I just." Thor swallowed. "Today… It's.." he halted.

Loki frowned trying to wrack his brain, to see if there was anything special about this day. Not really what he could remember. Just an ordinary day in April.

"April 23… 2018. According to the Midgard calendar." Thor breathed. "The day Thanos came… And with a single snap, extinguished half of all life in the universe."

Lokis eyes widened as he looked up. "Oh..." he realized.

"I know… He's already dead in this new timeline. The stones has been scattered across cosmos as is right. Still I." Thor bowed forward, folding his hands into each other.

Loki was quiet, then he moved forward, and sat down next to Thor.

"I saw it happen." Thor breathed. "Thanos…. He was standing right in front of me. He was right there. I had one shot at it, just the one! He was wearing the infinity glove and I… I threw my ax, I only had that one shot. And I aimed for the arm, hoping to chop it off alongside the glove."

Loki didn't reply, he just sat, he just listened.

"He deflected..." Thor swallowed. "He said to me… I should have gone for the head. If only I had… Then, right in front of me. He just did it, one single snap. And it was all over."

Loki glanced to the side.

"I know, I have been allowed to re-live the last seven years! From my own perspective, it's seven years ago! And it doesn't matter, I did it! I fixed it. Things are okay now." Thor swallowed. "Yet still I… Still I..." his eyes squinted shut.

Loki sighed deeply, then he reached a hand towards Thor, the palm upwards and the hand open, inviting for Thor to reach out and take it. Thor hesitated slightly, but then he did, and Loki wrapped his hand around Thors.

"This is not weakness Thor." Loki stated, his eyes looking towards the ocean, and his hand firmly holding Thor. "This day… Another version of you, a version whom is still a large part of you and is connected to you. He is going through, and witnessing incredible horror. To be honest, I have been amazed. Seven years ago, the day before my brother was about to be coronated. I met a Thor, a Thor who was so broken… So lost. Yet, even though he was so broken, he still stood up and fought. He still insisted he would safe the universe, he would not be deterred. No matter how much he was hurting. And now he is here. A good king, the hero who saved the universe though most don't even know it. And a good brother."

Thor swallowed, his body shaking lightly, his hand tightening around Lokis.

"I never even told you about this place did I?" Thor asked.

"No. Did something happen here?" Loki asked.

"Aye… This is where father died originally. His last words to us, he said he loved us." Thor said. "Only mere moments after Odins last breath Hela appeared, and we were unprepared."

"Shesh, first Hela then Thanos and not being prepared for either? Sorry Thor, you didn't really stand a chance." Loki sighed deeply.

"Heh, even seven years ago you kept telling me I should stop thinking it was my fault." Thor remembered. "You kept telling me, over and over. As if it was the most obvious fact, and you were so annoyed you had to keep on repeating it."

"And here seven years after I am still repeating myself." Loki commented. "Shesh."

Thor smirked amused as he shook his head. Then he cleared his throat. "I.. I'm keeping you here aren't I?" he asked.

"No." Loki replied. "There's no rush."

Thor blinked.

"There's no rush." Loki replied again, his eyes at the ocean, his hand still firmly holding Thors and Thor softened.

"Thank you Brother." Thor whispered.

Loki shrugged. "What are brothers for?" he asked and Thor smirked, then he to turned towards the ocean and they just sat there.

No rush, nothing that needed to be done. Just sitting.
