"You ask me why I did what I did? Ask, rather, why the serpent Nidhogg eats the roots of Yggdrasil -- Why, when the tree's death means, in turn, the dragon's ruin? Because, I keep telling you -- That is what it was born to do -- That is what I was born to do."
The presence of the other made Loki reassured that whatever happened henceforth—that whatever transpired beyond his sights, he would never become like that which he saw before himself. “Tell me—did it hurt when you were ripped apart by the Void?” It must have been an unpleasant memory, for no further detail had been spared which left the trickster all the more curious.

Something flashed in Loki’s eyes- something like pain and grimace- that soon hardened into a harsh gaze at the small one’s question. The Void, as one knows, is a large mass- or lack thereof- of nothingness, absolute desolation in which all you have is the air beneath you and the stars above you. And if you wait (but of course you have to wait, where will you go? the only way to go is down), you will reach the “end” of the void- or rather, where one realm ends and another begins.

“I see not why that is anything of your interest, Little Loki.”
“Why should I believe myself?” “I don’t care if it hurts.” “I’ve been thinking about you, so how can you sleep?” “These people aren’t your friends, they’re paid to kiss your feet.” “You’re free until you drop.” “I never wanted anything but this.” “Please forget the…

“Everyone ends up alone.” “Stay close to me.” “We need to get away.” “This is all for you.” "How could you be so heartless?” “There’s gotta be another way out.” “I’ve tried forever getting out on my own.” “I don’t wanna fight alone anymore.” “I never thought you would really go.” “I was being such a fool.” “But I can’t live without you.” “If I wanted to leave I would have left by now.” “Don’t let me down.” “And now I’m feeling stupid.” “I’ll only stay with you one more night.” “What’s that supposed to mean?” “Can’t take it no more.” “I used to pretend that I felt okay.” “I’ve failed you again.” “God knows that I tried…” “I was dreaming for so long.” "You are the piece of me I wish I didn’t need.” “If our love’s insanity, why are you my clarity?” "We both know how this ends.” “This is not what I do.” “Is that alright?” “Am I even human?” “I’m a mess.” “At least I’ve always been myself.” “No one knows my heart.” “I don’t know what I’m doing.” “There is something that you need to let me know.” “Be honest please.” “Say you’ll stay.” "I’ll look after you.” “I wasn’t looking for this.” “Here’s my number.” “Where do you think you’re going, baby?” “I missed you so bad.” “You see?” “Come on let’s go and play!” “Be my baby.” “Don’t you ever say I just walked away.” “I will always want you.” “I never meant to start a war.” “I just wanted you to let me in.” “I guess I should’ve let you win.” “You make me crazy from happiness.” “You’re my prince from the fairy tale.” “Where do I go if you leave?” “I was afraid you don’t care about me.” “I can’t forget you.” “I’m your destiny.” “You are like frost.” “We just have to wait until the next life.” “We need to talk.” “Where did I go wrong?” “I lost a friend.” “If I don’t say this now I will surely break.” “I’m losing my control.” “What’s mine is yours to leave or take.” “You’ve begun to feel like home.” “If that’s what you want…” “But I’m only human!” “I bleed…” “I can do it!” “Don’t let them in.” “Let it go.” “We only have each other." “Okay, can I just, say something crazy?” "We are meant to be.”
