"My people have done nothing to your precious Asgard," Loki said sharply, lifting his chin in a defiant manner as, under the folds of his cloak, his hands tightened around his daggers. "As I'm sure you can tell we have enough problems of our own to deal with. We have no reason to be inviting more trouble into our lands."

His gaze flicked from Thor's face to his hammer, head tilting curiously.

"And you are rather ignorant for a god, are you not?" he shot back, gaze returning to Thor's face with an almost bored look about him now. "If you and your companions are done, I advise that you leave. You'll find no fight here, Asgardian. Simply families attempting to survive."
