"Do you read mysteries to pass the time or do you enjoy solving the mystery before the book reveals the answer?"
Clever had never been a word used to describe him before so he's a little pleased with himself as he skims over some of the titles in Loki of Asgard's collection.
"Loki." The name seemed a little familiar. "There is a story about a mask created by a God named Loki. God of Chaos and Mischief. A Norse God, I believe. Anyone wearing the mask would be...possessed by the spirit of the God? Or it's magic. I can't remember the details. It's not a name you hear often."
"That myth is likely unique to your world, as I've never created any masks." Loki replied, choosing to leave the other question unanswered. "Otherwise your world has it accurate."
This was by far the most interesting conversation he'd had since arriving in his new life--mostly because he preferred not to engage in developing relationships beyond the necessary--and he was finding it difficult to walk away.
"You know the myths about Loki. Were you named after him?"
It didn't occur to him that Loki was suggesting he was the God of Chaos and Mischief. Only that he was saying the myths were true, except for the one about the mask, and teasing that he himself had never created such a mask. Gods weren't real so he couldn't imagine actually meeting one in person.
"Oh the myths still have many things lost in translation and altered or elaborated on." Loki replied, before turning an amused look on Sebastian. "But they were named after me." A pause, and a sly smile. "I'm the God of Mischief."
