[Loki is silent for a long moment. He's not certain how he feels about any of this. It's very easy for him to hate Billy for what he's done. But he also misses Billy. Just as there is some horrid part of him that still manages to miss Thor now and then. And he's put some thought, into things Rogue has said to him about forgiveness, about knowing circumstances.
Loki is not a forgiving man. Nor a particularly loving one. But Billy has also been part of his life since coming here, nearly as big a part of it as Rogue. Does he want to burn this bridge so thoroughly? It seems like an easy answer, in comparison to what Odin and Thor had done to him.
But it doesn't feel easy. Perhaps because he has chosen to call Billy family, a choice he never had with Thor or Odin.
Loki takes in an oddly unsteady breath.] You may speak now.
