[Evening in Asgard; Sif, Fandral, Volstagg, Hogun and Loki sit in gigantic armchairs around a central fireplace]
Volstagg:
We should never have let him go.
Sif:
There was no stopping him.
Fandral:
Well, at least he's only banished, not dead, which is what we'd all be if that guard hadn't told Odin where we'd gone.
[a healing compound is rubbed on Volstagg's arm; Loki's frost-damaged hand has already healed]
Volstagg:
How did the guard even know?
Loki:
I told him.
Fandral:
What?
Loki:
I told him to go to Odin after we'd left. He should be flogged for taking so long. We should never have reached Jotunheim.
Volstagg:
YOU told the guard?
Loki:
I saved our lives. And Thor's. I had no idea Father would banish him for what he did.
Sif:
[stands up]
Loki.
[approaches Loki]
Sif:
You must go to the Allfather and convince him to change his mind.
Loki:
And if I do, then what? I love Thor more dearly than any of you, but you know what he is. He's arrogant. He's reckless. He's dangerous. You saw how he was today. Is that what Asgard needs from its king?
[Loki marches off]
Sif:
He may speak of the good of Asgard, but he's always been jealous of Thor.
Volstagg:
We should be grateful to him. He saved our lives.
Hogun:
Laufey said... there were traitors in the House of Odin. A master of magic could bring three Jotuns into Asgard.
Fandral:
Loki's always been one for mischief, but you're talking about something else entirely.
