[ alright, well, if loki's going to be a brat, steve doesn't have to sit here and take it. he is not, in fact, loki's dad, and holds no responsibility for him and his petulant antics one way or another. ]
Let me know when you decide you want to talk, [ he says, not unkind but absolutely brooking no nonsense, either. he maintains eye contact with loki just long enough to add a little extra "are you proud of yourself, young man?" flavor to his paternalistic judgment before turning to walk away.
the worst part is, he's not even doing this on purpose. he's just Like This. ]
[It really is the worst part, though Loki isnβt fully aware of that. He doesnβt even pretend to know the Captain that well. All he really knows right now is that he feels like he put himself out there, tried to do something nice for someone he knows doesnβt like him and only to be brutally rebuked.]
Fine. See if I care. Good luck finding anyone that fits the bill with your little problem.
[Loki huffs in annoyance before turning away in a flourish deciding it was better to pretend Steve isnβt even here.]
