( Someone's favorite sister is just going to be quiet for now, her head bowed, hands folded in her lap. Dealing with the aftermath is always the most difficult. )
I do not expect you to feel differently, Clint Barton. However, he is still my brother, and I have faith my father will deal with him accordingly.
[He pauses a moment, knitting his brows together.] Though if you met him again, I cannot say I would in good conscience keep your arrow from finding it's target.
certainly! I'm not familiar enough with the myth to completely be up to speed, but I'll try!
I have never had intention of harming him, he has brought this upon himself. [He sets his jaw, his grip tightening on Mjolnir slightly.] The Midgardians are not play things to toss aside, and they have proven that. Loki has forced our hand.
As you say, my Lord. [It's not that she doubts you, Thor. Quite the opposite really. But Loki is Loki; if he seeks to escape eventually he will find a way.]
[A fact Thor is well aware of, but it will not deter him from trying to keep Loki on Asgard.] I can only hope that he will take this opportunity to make peace. Surely, sister, there are words you can say to calm his mind.
Kinda like a guy being tried in his own country right? [ Steve understood that sentiment. It was very similar to way things were done on Earth. Typically a prisoner was tried in his home country. ] You okay with that?
I believe we will all be safer if he is in Asgard. [He sets his jaw, eyebrows knit together thoughtfully.] My father has better chance of containing him than here on earth, and he will be much further away. He will not directly cause much damage to Asgard itself.
As much as he would protest, there are those he still loves. It is still his home.
It's okay. [ She offers her hand for him to take, a sad smile crossing her face. ] Even after everything, he's still your brother. You're allowed to worry about him.
[He takes her hand gladly, holding onto it tightly for a moment before pulling her into his arms. He won't say it out loud, but he needs this comfort.]
I feel we will all be safer if he is here where my father can keep him. If he is to be kept. [He sighs, tired.] It took some convincing, but I believe my companions in Midgard agree. We are better equipped to ensure he stays.
Your concern is understandable, if unnecessary. Asgard has means to keep Loki far away from Midgard and I would certainly rather him be there, rather than here to cause more damage.
[He offers Bruce a small smile.] Do not worry, great one. We do not regard Loki's crimes lightly.
[Yeah. For the best. Loki gives him a sharp look and scoffs, but doesn't say anything. He keeps glaring at Thor, arms crossed, defiance in his eyes. Even though he is humiliated and embarrassed, he still wants to show that his spirit is far from broken]

*She pets the large wolf at her side, and the cobra around her shoulders.* I won't let you hurt him again.

I feel as though I have failed him.
