"Are you breaking up with me?"

At Mobius' blunt question, Loki spun around on the spot to stare at him. "What?" he demanded, "Why would you think that?"

Getting defensive, Mobius frowned and shrugged his shoulders. "Well, what else am I supposed to think? You've been acting weird and secretive lately, you've started going off on your own most evenings, you got us alone just now…" He gestured around them at the balcony overlooking the TVA that—sure enough—was devoid of all but them. "You got another explanation?"

For another few long moments, Loki continued to stare at him. Then, he rolled his eyes, huffed, and stuck his hand in his pocket. As he pulled it back out, he bent down on one knee, then revealed that what he'd pulled from his pocket was a ring box.

It was Mobius' turn to go bug-eyed and speechless.

Mobius can’t say when it happened.

Him and Loki becoming a domestic couple, that is.

He seriously can’t.

They’re not even a couple, at least not in that way. Sure, they’re a couple of hard workers in their own regards and sometimes a couple of idiots, but that’s about it.

But then the water pipes in Loki’s apartment – okay, basically the entire floor, affecting a lot of living quarters – had to burst about a week ago, flooding everything and leaving quite a few people homeless over night. While everyone was quickly sorted into temporary accommodations, Mobius naturally didn’t hesitate to offer Loki a place to stay.

And so it happened that Loki moved in with him.

To be honest, Mobius didn’t know what to expect. From watching Loki on the timeline for the better part of his existence the agent knows that while the god likes to cause mischief and chaos all around him, he can be pretty neat and organized at the same time. Leaving wet towels on the floor or messing up the kitchen after trying his hand in making some pancakes is seriously not Loki’s style.

Loki has opinions, of course, and those can sometimes turn him into a somewhat obnoxious roommate. He has a lot to say about Mobius’ caffeine consumption, his taste in movies, the scratchiness of the TVA blankets and the lumpiness of the agent’s couch. Loki has a lot to say in general.

But overall it’s surprisingly nice to have him around.

It’s also a little frightening, though, how quickly they fall into little routines. Not even three days have passed and they already find themselves swaying to a dance in the kitchen that feels weirdly natural. They’re grabbing mugs and bowls for one another, brewing the other one’s beverage just the way they like it, without even having to inquire once, and it just looks like they’ve been doing it this way for ages.

Their nighttime routine becomes even worse and Mobius realizes quickly that this can’t be normal. The manner they’re behaving, this back and forth without having to utter a single word, it feels intimate in a manner the agent can’t really describe.

"What are you doing?"

With the frantic energy that'd come upon Mobius in the archive, that was the rushed question on his lips as soon as he entered the time cell he'd left Loki in. He was forced to slow down for a second, though, when he didn't immediately see the god in question.

"Loki?" Mobius questioned, casting his eyes around the cell.

It didn't take long to locate him. As soon as Mobius looked down, he found him. Huddled on the ground, Loki was curled in upon himself, his hair fanned over his knees, groaning lowly. He hadn't acknowledged Mobius' presence yet. It was possible he wasn't even aware of his presence.

A little late, Mobius realized exactly why Loki might find it rather difficult to stand, recalling which memory he'd left him in for…how many loops now?

Wincing (for more than one reason), he rushed to Loki's side and crouched to get an arm around him. "Hey," he whispered, finally gaining his attention, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"

"Mobius?" Loki mumbled as he was helped to his feet.

"Yeah, it's me," Mobius replied, guiding him across the room towards a (mercifully) padded bench, "I'm sorry I left you in here for so long. Actually…sorry for putting you in here in the first place." As they sat down together, he kept his arm around Loki's waist, perhaps thinking he could somehow undo the damage that had been done that way. Whether subconsciously or not, it was undeniable that they sat closer than would be considered proper or expected of work colleagues, but Mobius didn't seem to notice, or care. "You were right," he hurried on, grip tightening with the fervency of his words, "You were right about everything. And I acted like a jerk; you didn't deserve this."

Still trying to catch his breath, Loki nevertheless listened carefully as Mobius spoke. He remained dubious at first, but with each word from the analyst, he could sense that something had changed in him. That some of the man he'd been growing close to before the disastrous night at the Roxxcart had returned, along with a brand new rebellious streak in him. It was intoxicating. Impossible for Loki to resist. So he didn't.

Subtly leaning into Mobius' touch, he slumped to rest his chin upon his shoulder as he let out a weary sigh. "I must say: your choice of memory prison was an…interesting one."

"You call gettin' kicked in the nuts by Lady Sif 'interesting'?" Mobius asked, incredulous.

Loki hummed. "Not so much the memory itself as the fact that it's what you chose," he corrected, a tiny smirk crossing his lips, "One would think you were a jealous lover."
