He could have. But Esteban just shakes himself, like a big fluffy dog after a bath, and grins.
"Where'd be the fun in that?" he asks, snickering again. "Hav'n't you ran in summer showers b'fore? Or danced in the rain? Or splashed in puddles?" There's gaps here and there, he thinks. Things that are usual for him that would not be usual from the-- god? Demi-god? Before him.
Esteban's not even truly sure what kind of powers Loki might be, but he is on Earth, he is with him. And Esteban likes giving these simple joys to his friends.
"Y' should loosen up! C'mon!" He calls, leaping out onto the asphalt just a few steps down.
It's pouring. The rain rolls down against his skin and into his hair and Esteban stretches his arms wide to welcome it, twirling on the ball of a foot. Laughing, like when he was just an itty bitty Stebby.
He waves at Loki again.
"C'mon! The water don't bite!" And, just because he can, "but I might, 'f y' don't get over here!~"
He doesn't think Loki would see it, but he winks anyways, because. Well. It's not something that had never occurred to him before. Loki's slick, perfect look has always been something he's wanted to ruffle a bit. Preferably with his hands, but-- not-- he hasn't-- it's not been an option he's pursued often before.
