Yeah. [Thor rolls his shoulders slightly, relieved enough to get to the bottom of Loki's distress without something worse flaring up between them. And if there's a little more understanding than before, then all the better.] You do.
[ Loki pointedly looks away. It is a contradiction within Loki that he constantly seeking validation, but when it comes, he finds himself unable to fully deal with it. The burn of anger is easier when it's dismissed. Or Loki simply doesn't know what to do with that acknowledgement. Was it supposed to make him feel better? Or worse? ]
[It means Loki misses Thor's wry smile, knowing full well that it amounted to far more than a 'little'. He isn't going to hammer the point home - that will only earn him some ire. Instead, Thor claps Loki's shoulder again and reaches past him to pick up the papers.]
