Loki stared at Harry before starting to laugh. "It seems that I still have to learn a lot about you and your house." Loki pulled up a chair and grabbed a book. It was time to do some research.


Now

It had taken a few minutes, but soon a delicious meal was standing on top of the table next to Harry. Harry looked up quickly before showing it towards Loki. "Perhaps you would like to have a taste? My House Elves are trying out new dishes and I believe that you would be an expert of Norwegian dishes."

Loki immediately identifies the Syltelabb that was standing in front of him and it makes his mouth water the moment he smells it. Syltelabb is a Norwegian dish made from boiled, salt-cured pig's trotter. Sylte means preserved and labb means pig feet or paw and it certainly doesn't look appetizing, but it is nice when you eat it. It was even served with beetroot, mustard and a flatbread! If he smelled it correctly, the beverage in the mugs was juleøl, an ale. Syltelabb was always served with juleøl, beer or liquor because Sytlelabb is very salty food.

It was actually snack food, eaten with your fingers, but Loki still used cutlery if he ate it. He still looked back fondly at the faces of the Asgardians who watched him eating with a knife and fork. The first time was an accident, he truly didn't know that you were supposed to eat them with your fingers, but after that? Oh, one of the best pranks he ever played on them without them knowing it.

Harry's eyes showed mirth. "I see that you recognise the dish then."

"Yes, it has been a while since I had it." Loki smiled. "I remember the first time I ate it even, the faces of the Asgardians when they saw me eating it with cutlery. Hilarious!" Loki shook his head laughing.

"With cutlery? What is wrong with eating this food with cutlery?" Harry asked bewildered.

"It is food that you normally eat with your fingers, like Midgardian Pizza I believe," Loki answered, "I didn't know that and of course I ate it with cutlery, like the well-behaved young man that I was."

Harry snorted. "Why don't I really believe you when you say that?"

"Say what?"

"That you were a well-behaved young man."

"I'll let you know that I was a well-behaved young man," Loki said offended, "I may or may not have pranked a lot of Asgardians, but I was well-behaved. "He conceded.

"And that makes me believe you less and less." Harry laughed. "You were perhaps polite, but well-behaved? Eh."

Loki smiled. "Compared to the Asgardians? I was really well-behaved."

Harry held his hands up. "Alright, you got me there. Congratulations, you won. What do you want for a reward?"

Loki's eyes started to twinkle. "My request is fairly simple. The only thing I truly want you to do is to eat the Sytlelabb. Every. Single. Part." He smiled wickedly.

Harry gaped. "You want me to eat the pig's feet? You are a cruel person, Loki of… Loki."

Loki ignored the mishap and smirked. "You were the one who ordered the food and hadn't eaten yet, it is just justified that you eat it yourself too. Or are you too cowardly to eat it?"

Harry gasped. "Oh, you are on you bastard! Give me that food!" Harry made grabbing motions towards the plate and Loki let him grab it amused.

Harry grabbed a foot and started eating and eating and eating. Loki was actually impressed by his persistency. Most would have stopped eating for a moment to drink something or to eat the flatbread.

When Harry had finished the meal, he sat up straight in triumph.

Loki's eyes merrily kept twinkling while realisation slowly appeared in Harry's eyes.

"You tricked me." Harry breathed out.

"I am the God of Mischief or did you forgot that?" Loki laughed. "If I were you, I would drink something. Sytlelabb is way too salty to not drink something with it. Go on." Loki coaxed Harry on. "You can do it."

Not trusting Loki, Harry grabbed a mug and sipped from it. "Hmm, not bad. What is it?"

"It is called juleøl, or Christmas beer. Sometimes it is ale and sometimes is beer. It is usually strong and spiced with a variety of ingredients including cinnamon, orange peel, cloves and vanilla."

Harry sat there with his mouth hanging open. "How do you know so much about beer?"

Loki shrugged his shoulders. "Simple, I sometimes helped making it. Though not a lot, they didn't really trust me with it. I wasn't really well-behaved in their minds. Too many pranks. But to be frank with you, most of the pranks were harmless and they mostly backfired in my face, so yeah."

"Disgusting." Harry sneered.

"I beg your pardon?" Loki said bewildered.

"That they simple mistrusted you because of few pranks. Everyone played a few pranks, right? Maybe on a small scale, but everyone did it! Even those rule-loving people who would prefer to die than to be expelled!" Harry exploded. "They treated you differently because of who you were and still are. That is not alright. Those stupid idiots! I wish I could have done more against them than taking away most of their stuff with your help." He mumbled.

"It was not just the fact that I pranked them, I also used magic, while only females used magic and there were tons of other reasons why they didn't like me," Loki said. "By the way, I'm impressed by the way that you took your revenge. Is there anything else that you planned, or do I have to do that planning all alone?"

Harry's eyes started to twinkle. "Oh, they aren't rid of me at all and believe me when I say that I have multiple plans. But," The twinkle in Harry's eyes started to dim, "all my plans are based on you losing that stupid collar, so that's why we are still stuck in the library, but now that I think of it, perhaps we can use your children?"

Loki was taken aback. "You mean with the research? I don't think that that would be a good idea. They like you a bit better now, but they still don't trust you fully."

Harry laughed. "No, I wouldn't want them to get stuck in the library while they could be roaming free. I mean with the revenge plans. I do have some plans for them…"
