War is over, if you want it
Loki could not keep the smug look off his face. "You hath lost, Grandmaster. Mine champions didst roust thine in the end. A slim victory, yes... but the simple majority was all thou didst require."

He pointed a finger. "Thou art bound by the terms of our agreement. Thou art to leave now and not to quest for the Norn Stones again, nor to use pawns to acquire them."

The Elder of the Universe frowned deeply. "I always honor my word, Asgardian. Unlike some I have known. My champions shall be returned from wence they gathered, and yours shall be brought to thee. As we agreed."

With that, the Grandmaster was gone, and the Defenders appeared before Loki, no worse for wear for their adventures.

Loki moved quickly, faster than any would have expected. He had kept himself schooled during the fighting, not letting his surprise or even his worry show, but now, here, he was able to release these emotions. An intensity, even a a worry, showed clearly on his face. When he was closer, his arm shot out, grasping Dawn about the next and holding her off the ground.

"Speak ye, mortal, now! What has thou done to mine GRANDDAUGHTER?!"

	BreatheBreatheBreatheBreatheBreatheBreathe Dawn managed to stop hyperventilating, at least. So apparently she wasn't going to be killed. Good. ...But she could probably still be turned into something unpleasant. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He got what he needed out of his grandfather. Even the Stone Bear isn't going to antagonize Loki just to do so. When the threat dies down, he helps Dawn to her feet, and settles for just remaining interposed between her and Loki so they can talk while Dawn is clearly under his protection.

Dawn skewed up her courage as best she could, and outlined, as best she could, what she knew had happened, up to and including having gone to Asgard to meet Thor.

"Aaand that's pretty much it. I'm really sorry, Mr. Loki. Sir. Really. I wouldn't have been in this mess if I could help it. Really."

It came at her usual nervous rate of talking when she was nervous, but she did stand her ground to explain it.

Loki listened without interruption, though occasionally his expression grew cross and he wished he could silence the prattling mortal.

"Ever the same tricks, eh, Father?" he said, mostly to himself. "It worked once, so why not try it again?"

His anger was contained, but smoldering. His granddaughter was arrogant, and rightfully so. He knew she had little regard for mortals and for Midgard, and did not blame her in the slightest. Of course, Odin always did see differently.

"I like this not. Rest assured, Odin will hear of mine displeasure."

He frowned, then nodded to himself. "Whilst thou and thine sibling and allies are here, and didst come at mine request when thou werest not required, I offer thee mine hospitality, if thou wouldst have it."
