[ Loki doesn't speak for a long time. Whether he's listening or not, it's hard to tell. Any sign (the bobbing of the adam's apple, the pinch of his brow) could be lies, placed there to elicit a sympathetic response. Or, more telling, is the lack of it, a polished mirror, reflecting back at those who speak to him. He's a chameleon boy. Always have been. ]
