[ His old apartment is now too big, too empty and garish and morose without Verity sharing Loki's home. She practically lived in the fancy flat half the time to account for the space, but now there are memories in place of his BFF herself and Loki stands up one evening, hands on hips, to glare at everything accusingly, conscious of his antsy bad mood. So he switches it up, right then and there. He moves to the northern district of the city and sets up in a smaller place, selling off the other for a tidy price online. What he ends up with is a little nicer than what he had in Manhattan but nothing even half so lavish as what he leaves behind from his initial stay in Eudio.

That's okay. Change is good. He breathes easier.

After spending an entire evening getting everything straightened out, he texts the only other two people who come around and might want to know why he's pulled a vanishing act: Owen and Billy. Owen because Loki finds himself wanting the older man to drop by, one of the exceedingly few friendships (if it can be called that) forged in this weird dimension that he's reluctant to discard, and Billy because the mage will dole out deets to the rest of the YA with a measure of tact. Hopefully. Loki certainly isn't hot-lining his location to America.

The short message issued to both comes with a series of snapsnots and his address. ]

Moved house! 8-O
Warding is up but you (specifically) will still be able to enter.

Looks great, Loki. Why the sudden move?

[ikols]

Got bored, had a change of heart when it came to parquet flooring.

[ And the money from the sale will substitute Verity's stash that he spent on Hook's new ship. The downsizing of his retreat doesn't bother him, it's actually turning out to be refreshing. More like Manhattan. ]

Tell Teddy I need to work him into the warding too, since I suppose you come as a pair (even when you're not! I know, I KNOW).

[noassgardian]

I'll tell him, sure.

Do you want me to drop by sometime? We could do a little housewarming.

[ikols]

If you like. I can hardly keep you out now, can I?

[noassgardian]

If you really wanted to keep me out, you could. I'm guessing you kinda like having me around though.

[ikols]

Do you know how much effort it takes to revoke a blood-ward? TOO MUCH.
You shall just have to try not to haul in too many Tolkien books with you.

[noassgardian]

Bringing over Tolkien books to clutter up your space is like bringing over an overnight bag... Are we really at that stage yet, Loki?

[ikols]

I'm not going to go into paroxysms of distress just from seeing your grubby old toothbrush around. Verity broke me in, you can thank her the next time she's here.
Whatever aids you in feeling comfortable.
You've never stayed over, anyway. Not really.

[noassgardian]

I was only kidding anyway, Loki. You'd have to deal with my toothbrush.
And I'd stay over, you know, whenever.

[ikols]

You could invite Teddy along too, that's okay.

[ He's suddenly aware of how little there is to do in his apartment beyond gaming, cooking, messing around on his laptop to play with several totally-not-there bank accounts and ... sleep. Maybe they could have a film bonanza. Actors fix everything. ]

Movie night?

[noassgardian]

Sure, that sounds great! We haven't had one of those. When would you like to do it?

[ikols]

[ At least Teddy and Billy can keep each other occupied if Loki feels like slinking off. ]

Pick a day and I'll inform a handful of people I'm unavailable on it.

[ More like one, but. ]

[noassgardian]

[Billy's... sort of looking forward to this. Nothing like hanging out and watching movies with friends, right? And just getting to hang out with Loki sounds nice.]

How's over the weekend sound?

[ikols]

Sounds great.
Shoot a text whenever you're coming over Saturday, and bring your duvets.

[noassgardian]

Duvets? You think we'll need them?

[ikols]

Am I expected to fit BOTH of you fully-grown, STRAPPING MEN and myself in my double-bed?

[noassgardian]

Oh, you'd love that.

[Wait, no. That was waaay inappropriate, wasn't it?]

Kidding. I didn't know we were doing a sleepover. Don't worry, we'll come equipped.

[ikols]

Billy Kaplan, secret kink deviant, proposing a threesome: highlight of my day.

[noassgardian]

I'm not a deviant!! You're the one talking about squeezing us into your bed!

[ikols]

I was aghast at the very prospect!!

[noassgardian]

You were absolutely scandalized, weren't you?

[ikols]

My gloves popped RIGHT off. ;)

[noassgardian]

You dork. I guess I better shut up before I make you faint or something.

[ikols]

Much appreciated, I can't be swooning everywhere. Imagine how fast my rep would tank.
