The Deceptive Reveal (джен)

This time instead of letting the anger take control of him he could tell them what had happened, even if no one would believe Loki Liesmith, they would believe the Chittauri brand on his shoulder blade, the marks of their torture on his skin.
But Loki knew their sympathy would be short-lived, his reasons would sound like excuses for most of Asgard and a lot of the soldiers and the court would still be suspicious of him, their doubt would never be completely cleared, and his par- Odin and Mother wouldn’t understand how broken he is. And he wanted them to know. He wanted them to realise how much he had suffered and feel guilty for not noticing sooner. For Thor to feel guilty, for him to understand how much he caused Loki to suffer.
That required patience and some time spent in prison. Loki did not mind that, he was tired, and prison was comfortable enough, courtesy of his Mother.

Loki goes back in time, he decides he will put himself first. He will seek out help. He will manipulate (communicate) and let people know he needs help.
