[Puck was welcome to hide, especially since Loki was 'hiding' a bit himself.]
I do--and...I am not used to that.
[A sigh, and hiding his head against Puck's hair.]
I wonder if you realize just how new and rare that is for me? Until very recently, I...somewhat cared for my brother, and did love my mother very much. I wanted my father's approval, but I'm not sure that's caring for him. Familial dynamics are all very complicated with emotions.
[Keeping that hold and cuddling the other, for himself now too as well as for Puck.]
Then my life went under a great upheaval 6 years ago, and well...I cared only for myself. Until the last few months and mostly while here. You are a peer and my friend, and something more as well, Puck--and I am still figuring it all out. But...I do care for you, and I'm sad that you've been hurt.
