Imagine snapping at Loki while you’re premenstrual. You say some pretty mean stuff to him, not fully realizing what you’re spouting off and definitely not meaning a word of your tirade.
Loki, however, doesn’t realize what’s really going on. All he knows is that you’re suddenly pissed off at him and he’s not completely sure what he did to make you so mad.
It takes you a moment to simmer down, but you find some chocolate and pour yourself a drink (Tony would likely pop off about you “getting soused at one in the afternoon” if your PMS didn’t send the Hulk into a corner to cower in fear and cry like a baby.) as you mull over what happened.
After thinking about all the hurtful things you screamed at Loki when your mood was by no means his fault, you slowly realize you probably hurt his feelings. So, you decide to apologize… after finishing your chocolate and booze, of course.
You trudge to Loki’s room and gingerly knock on the door. There’s no response, so you try again, gently announcing yourself this time.
Loki opens the door by barely an inch, but you can see his eyes peering suspiciously at you. “Hello, (Name).” His greeting is chilly, like you know you deserve after the way you treated him. “To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit? Another insult, perhaps?”
“I want to apologize. I said a lot of really horrible things to you, and you didn’t deserve any of it.”
He narrows his eyes at you, but he lets you continue.
“You’ve been nothing but good to me, and I shouldn’t have said what I did… especially since I didn’t mean any of it.”
“Then why did you say it?”
Welp, here goes.
Cue the explanation (and follow-up questions) of premenstrual syndrome.
(Note: Please bear in mind it’s PREmenstrual, as in ‘before,’ not ‘on,’ one’s period.)
