[ She had to do it in secret. Loki was her hidden shame. Asgard's shame. And Loki's own deeply rooted shame, tied to skin and bone. His own mask that he cannot shed. Frigga had seen past it all. Had deemed him worthy to hold Gungnir in his hands.
And he had caused her death. What would Thor say to that? ]
Her feelings should have changed. Everyone else's did. Being the exception gave her nothing in return.
[ How dearly he wished she had given up on him. There would be no guilt, no pain. Just the truth. ]
