[asofwar]

It takes little for his pride to be harmed.

[Hint: he'd be harmed either way. Think about him or not.]

I should think - [No, she should like to think that the man who pushed her out of harm's way on impulse;] - he would not burn schools.

[subecho]

Since the Lady Sif vouches for it, then it is so.

[asofwar]

And when did the Lady Sif become an authority on your brother's doings?

[subecho]

When I lost the title.

[asofwar]

You did not lose the title. It would be foolish to assume there is any higher authority on Loki than Loki himself.

[subecho]

And shall I hasten to ask him? "Brother, have you found yourself with torch and want of entertainment"?

[asofwar]

Evidently not.

[subecho]

Precisely. You judge as Fandral did. Two cannot both be in error.

[asofwar]

...he would give a dozen second chances.

[subecho]

...Fandral?

[asofwar]

Have you not noticed?

[subecho]

I did not think we had enough traitors for friend Fandral to give countless opportunities.

[asofwar]

Just the one is enough.

[subecho]

You know of something I do not?

[asofwar]

Many things. But not in this - we know the same.

[subecho]

Then? He has not spoken in Loki's favour. Not to me.

[asofwar]

For all that friend Fandral loves to hear his own voice, the things he does not say are equally telling.

[subecho]

Such... as?

[asofwar]

Did he threaten him? During your escape.

[subecho]

Am I either of their caretakers, to know all the words spoken?

[asofwar]

Loki's.

[subecho]

So I did not hear - and what does that mean? That I paid mind elsewhere. That friend Fandral does not need open threat. That this conversation is - without purpose.

[asofwar]

That - would be right, yes.

The school - were there people inside?

[subecho]

Not that I've heard tell. But my knowledge is little.
