Sentiment (джен)

Sentiment.
Loki, King of Asgard, had long since exiled it from the chambers of his heart. It was a weakness, a crack in the armor that let in the brutal, monstrous cold.
It made you trust. It made you need. It made you lose.
So naturally, he did not feel.
Not when the boy appeared in his life like an afterthought of fate. A slight little thing– barely into his toddler years– with wild, raven-dark hair and uncertain footing. A child with his face. His jawline. His posture. His legacy.
And Loki... Loki felt--
(Nothing. Loki felt nothing).
