Prompts and Drabbles von Sarah_von_Krolock (Logyn ~ Loki x Sigyn) ================================================================================ Kapitel 12: Love strucked Loki ------------------------------ "Tell me, brother. Tell me the truth now. No implyings, no foggy suggestions, just the plain truth. There is someone." "I don´t know what you´re talking about." "Loki, be honest with me. You can tell me everything." "You? You are the biggest gossiper around here." Thor grabs after Lokis arm and brings him to stop, brings him to turn around to him. “I´ll keep silent, I swear. By the Norns, I swear to not tell a single soul. You laugh, you smile constantly, you´re… so different, so… happy. For so long now. At first I thought you took some of your poitons… but the effect keeps up for far too long for that. There must be someone. You have the grin of a fool who fell in love.” He sighs, looking from one side to the other. “Not a single word. To no one.” "I swear." Another sigh and Loki drags his brother along with him into another corridore. Here they have a clear sight into the palace gardens. "Who is she?" "The blond one." Thor rolls his eyes. All the women, the whole bunch that sits with their mother and caring for the flowers are blond. “Which one?” "She who braids the flower into a crown…" Thor looks at his brother, his gaze lost in the sight of the young woman, a small smile lingers on his lips. "What do you say?" The dark haired one suddenly turns again towards his brother, raising his eyebrows in question. Nervously he licks over his lips. Nothing is official, for weeks they meet in secret. He wants to make it official more than anything else but he fears for her reputation. She has to loose much more than he. He knows how people are, especially how court members are. The little lady in waiting of the queen, ´the little toy of the prince´… "Well… she´s pretty. She has a nice smile. She looks pretty gracious. A lady in waiting of mother?" "Yes, Sigyn is her name. Lady Sigyn…" Again a sigh leaves his lips by her name. The arrow of the winged helper of love must have hit him very deep. “For how long?” "Weeks…" He shrugs with his shoulders. "Months… The fall passed, the winter passed, the spring…" "Lady Sigyn… so that´s your crush, the cause why you smile so often lately. Are you going to ask her?" "First of all, she´s nut a crush. She´s smart, intelligent, smarter than some advisors of father, she would be able to talk every single one against the wall! And it´s impossible to ask her… you know how the rules are with us, she´s not of royal blood, her father is just an admiral, her mother always stayed at home and raised her… We are princes we have to marry princesses, father wouldn´t allow it any different and not to mention the court! They would tear her apart. I don´t want to do it to her." He looks again outside at her. "She knows the court as lady in waiting, yes, but she has never drawn the attention of them at her… they would mock her because she´s not of noble blood." "But she will be through you." The elder one smiles. "And aren´t rules there to be broken? You are actually pretty good in breaking the rules and twisting and turning them until they please you. Mother is fond of her? You have my blessing. When her character is like her looks, you have my blessing." "Oh, do I need that?" "I will be king once… And when I am then I will announce that a Prince can marry whomever he wants and don´t care about noble blood." Loki laughs lowly. “Oh really? That will be your first doing as king?” "Well… maybe not the very first one. But it will be one. Oh! Oh! She looks over!" With a wide grins Thor waves at the love of his brother. But she looks shocked and turns her gaze immediately onto the work in her hands again. "You embarrass me, Thor… This is exactly the reason why I haven´t told you…" "I´ll keep silent, promise. I don´t tell anyone. You can cut off my tongue if I do so." "Is that a promise?" "If you ask her?" "Shut up…" "Are you going to ask her? You said it´s going on for months, you kept something like this on for months… never before. She has a positive effect on you, you´re not as grumpy as usual. And it´s funny to see you smiling like an idiot." He laughs again, turns his gaze again outside. "Ask her. Don´t be a fool and ask her before someone steals her away from you." He keeps his gaze down, looking down onto his shoes. "Are you going to ask her?" He shrugs with his shoulders. To be honest he already thought about it a lot. Thor bends down, so far than he can look into his brothers face again. “Are you?” He smiles, the smile grows into a grin until he laughs lowly. “Yes… propably yes, I´ll do,” he nods. Thor slaps his little brother onto his shoulder. “Mother will be pleased that her hope of grandchildren can finally become real.” "Am I allowed to marry first before we discuss that topic?” "Nope. Oh man… my little brother is in love… Loki and Sigyn sitting on a tree…" He slaps him onto his arm. “Shut up!” "K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" "I´ve said shut up," laughs Loki. Hosted by Animexx e.V.
