On the one hand, Loki had no desire to get into another fight. He wasn't Thor, or Volstagg, or Fandral. On the other, if this was a passage to one of the realms, if this 'boogeyman' decided to move then it could be a problem.
Hmmm--he had already cleared out one threat. Moving out of his crouch by the child, Loki brushed off his knees as he straightened. "I can't promise we don't need to poke the boogeyman, but I'd rather avoid a second fight."
"Yeah, me too," Ronstadt agreed, moving toward the stairs already. "Especially since that's the one I was telling you about on the way here. C'mon, let's find this hotspot of yours before the building goes poof."
Loki's longer legs might allow him to take the stairs two at a time, but Ronstadt hoofed it up at his usual pace, keeping one hand light on the railing. The striped wallpaper was cracked and peeling, covered in crayon scrawls and stains. Overall, the atmosphere of the place was equally split between charming and terrifying.
"How long do we have?" Loki asked curiously. He was well past when his absence would be noted. But that was alright, he knew how he'd tell this tale. How he'd escape with little more than a light scolding. Up to the 2nd floor they went, and the closer they got, the more certain Loki was.
Now the question was, would this hole and tunnel lead back to Asgard, or to another of the nine realms?
