[As all pups did, Sprinkles had those tiny little raptor teeth. But he also seemed charmingly gentle-mouthed with his playful chewing of offered fingers, tail windmilling so hard that his whole back end was swinging along.]
A good plan if you ask me. We'll come back and I'll make us stupid amounts of food and we can pick something new on Netflix to watch while Sprinkles naps and likely drools on you. [Loki was... touched. That soft gratitude just gentling his expression some as he shifted to plunk down beside Danny and the pup.]
If anyone should be thanking anyone here, it's me thanking you. [He couldn't help the sheepish huff at the admission.] With my reputation being what it is, that you're willing to... give me a chance let alone be friends well... it means quite a bit more than I can put to words.
[ Those sharp teeth are a good indication that he will grow up to be a fierce warrior, no doubt. Even if the dog bit harder, chances were that Danny would be unbothered. He got a high threshold for pain, more so in his hands, from so many years of training and punching things. He just chuckled when the dog nipped at him, encouraging it after seeing that enthusiastic tail wagging. ]
You really can cook? [ Danny was already grinning at the idea because he was always on board with any plan that involved filling his belly. ] Maybe we can check if Netflix has Dumbo, for the nostalgia.
[ He wasn't picky, they could always watch whatever else Loki felt like watching, but seeing the animated movie after talking about it early could be fun. His eyes followed Loki as he sat down and was a little surprised to see that sheepish look. It was very cute too. ]
I'm happy to be your friend, Loki. People change and reputations are often inaccurate or outdated. I think it doesn't really matter who you used to be yesterday but who you're trying to become and the steps you take to accomplish it. There's a quote from Buddha that says โJust as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.โ
