Letters From Home

by IrocZchick

Loki ends up in prison on Midgard and thinks everyone has forgotten about him. Today he feels especially lonely because it is his birthday and he didn't even get a letter. He knew he wouldn't get any visitors because he didn't put anyone on his list. A few days after his birthday he gets his first letter. (Originally posted on AO3)

Brother,

I received your letter from the new location. I was worried you did not wish to communicate with me again. I waited for your phone calls daily, but none came. I did not know how often you could contact me via telephone and held hope you had not regretted speaking to me. My heart filled with joy when I read the name on the envelope. I was a bit bewildered by the different address it came from. When I read it, I understood why I did not hear from you. My heart clenched when I realized you were relocated before I sent my last letter that was addressed to the prison.

I do not like how slow the delivery of letters is here on Midgard. I conversed with the Captain and Mr. Stark about the fate of my letter and they have informed me that mail is considered precious here. The Midgardians at the prison are required to forward it to your new address or return it to me. It has not been returned to me, thus far, but if it is, I will send it to the new address. If you do not receive it, please inform me and I will try to recollect my words to send anew.

I am deeply aggrieved that I can only see you twice in the long months ahead, but I am happy that you are no longer caged up like some beast. If you have not chosen to forget, one month from tomorrow is my birthday. It would please me greatly to visit you that day, brother.

I heard your favorite Midgardian song the other day. Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. It will forever be my favorite song, as well, because it reminds me of you. I closed my eyes and immediately I felt as if I was back in the moment when you first played that song for me. The stars shone brightly that night, brother, but none shone brighter than your eyes. Your velvety voice singing along was the most beautiful sound in the nine realms. I wish to hear you sing those words again, Loki.

You have not yet informed me of the reason for your detainment and I await the tale with little patience.

My heart yearns for you, my brother.

Wish you were here,

Thor
