Appears briefly to press a kiss to Loki's nose.
@warpedwarlock
Loki gasped softly as Billy appeared. And then blushed at the kiss - giggled; a startled noise - “Oh! Hello -..oh” before he blinked as Billy was gone again.
“Hello, Billy.” He murmured as he glanced around.
"Daddy's bad, right?"
@warpedwarlock @noworldnomad
“Daddy is....yes. Daddy hurts people very badly and he likes to do it - He makes bad choices because he’s been hurt very badly himself. But that does’t make you bad. Just like...-purple. You like the color purple; and you know it’s made of both red and blue, yes?...but you wouldn’t say it’s red, and you wouldn’t say it’s blue, right? No, it’s purple: it’s own color - made of, but free of it’s parts.” Loki tried to explain.
“...you are free to be who you want, my sweet baby. I will love you no matter what...and Rikki would as well. She loves you-”
" If she hates Daddy and I'm half Daddy then she might."
@noworldnomad @warpedwarlock
Loki sucked on her lower lip as she started to braid Leanna’s hair. “Yes, you are half daddy - but you’re are fully your own being with your own choices to make. You are not weighed down by your father or mine’s actions; nor should you be: You’re a fresh story and have yet to be defined. Aunt Rikki knows this; she doesn’t hate you, sweetie.” She assured softly, but she still made a mental note to talk to Rikki about Leanna’s concerns.
"... Does Aunt Rikki hate me?"
@noworldnomad @warpedwarlock
“No, my darling-” Loki said gently and without hesitation. “She loves you very much. Why do you think she hates you?” She asked with a gentle cuddle before she motioned with her fingers. “Here, turn about, I’ll put your hair up into pigtails...”
" Mummy, why does Aunt Rikki hate Daddy?"
@noworldnomad @warpedwarlock
Loki drew a soft inhale and let it out slowly. “Ah....well:” She started, looking down Leanna. She mauled over the answers she could give as she reached down to scoop up her young child so she could balance her on her knees.
“...You remember how we talked about how daddy walks a darker path and how he does not nice things to people? And you know how we talked about how Aunt Rikki protects people from those that do not nice things to them? Aunt Rikki doesn’t approve or like the things that daddy does and it’s her job and moral obligation to stop him and his acts. Mostly she’s just afraid, my darling. She worries that we’ll get hurt because she loves and she worries.”
A difficult answer to a difficult question: For Loki didn’t want Leanna to fear her father (For Loki had made sure she had Billy’s binding oath to not harm the child in any way - and that stretched to emotional and mental pains; Loki made sure that was part of the magical clause.) She wanted Leanna to come to her own choices, when she was old enough, to how she would respond to Billy.
In the meantime she made sure she understood the gray areas. Understood the paths that light, and dark, and chaotic and Order took and guided her towards walking along the lighter gray areas...to be ‘good’; better then Loki ever could be. To respect life in all forms; and pick the righter choices, but Loki was a chaotic good being - she could only teach what she knew...
Which is where Loki’s ties and gratefulness to those of more sound moral judgements came in....
"Dad!! Is Uncle Tommy coming over to play? Daddy said he would!"
Loki managed keep the twitch of knitted brows at bay as she bent, smoothing back Leanna’s hair to press a kiss to her forehead. “Your papa says a great deal of things; but- Yes, Uncle Tommy is coming to play. Would you like me to text him and ask him is ETA?” She asked, smiling warmly at her daughter.
warpedwarlock replied to your post: "Come home with me." As demanding as he could be,...
“No. It’s very far away.” He pressed a finger to his lips thoughtfully. “Like the Moon, but farther away.”
“It’s on another planet or in another universe?” Loki asked. He looked away, hesitating...before he looked back. “...will you return me home when I’m ready?” He asked. He could return under his own power. He had set up methods to ensure he could always go home - but if he could avoid the lengthy and draining spells; he’d prefer it.
"Come home with me." As demanding as he could be, the young warlock was making a request.
@warpedwarlock
Loki pursed his lips; eyes flicking towards Billy before he turned to face him. “...not that fearfully awful pit you call your playroom, is it?” He asked, tongue sweeping over a tooth as his stomach rolled at the memory.
