[While Pepper takes her very sweet time to get changed Loki just picks one of the other horses and tacks it up as well. It takes his mind off of things. Its dumb, really, after Billy's spell. After everything. It is so foolish to hope to find her somewhere in the forest, reading by a fire or anything like that.
For a moment he allows himself to press his forehead against the left wall of the stable he is standing in to let out a soft sigh. He bites his lower lip very, very hard to not cry.
Its odd to feel alone while there is no reason to do so. He should've just talked to her when she was still there, he should've just protected her when he had to. A lot of things he should've done. Should've.
When the first sob makes it outside he quicky covers his mouth with the back of his hand. He can't really stop the tears from coming out anymore but at least he can muffle the sounds coming from his mouth.
The moment when he hears Pepper's voice he quickly moves again, quickly wiping away the tears while trying to steady his voice.]
