[ on that note so is the entire sensitIV dorm, but loki doesn't seem to really consider this as he motions Phoenix to follow him down the hall. he's just used to this bizarre bloodypink hellscape. ]
I'll turn it on for you, at least. [ annnnd welcome to the sensitIV bathroom which is ... actually not quite as bad as the common room. the showers all have individual curtains and everything. but Loki opens the door to yet another room that has a... giant tea cup. which is already weird, honestly. ]
Not... exactly. [ considers ] That would be nice, though. Maybe we can make that our next dorm upgrade? [ a light joke? or an actual consideration. either way he's fumbling with the spout faucet... things, it's kind of obvious he doesn't actually use this thing all that often, and-- ]
[ fumbles with the faucets some more and-- finally manages to. get. actual water to flow instead of whatever that was don't think about it it's fine jesus christ this is why he can't bring anyone home, ]
Why did they even give us an upgrade like that!? [ why is their dorm like this??? ]
[He jerks, startled by the sudden movement, the touch, and he starts hyperventilating but like, after a moment when it's just, a hug, he leans into it and sobs.]
[He's going to cry until he's too tired to, loud gross sobbing with just, a lot of hiccups until he. Cries out. And he's just leaning on Loki, exhausted, emotionally.]
... you really need to stop apologizing for things you don't have to apologize for. We have an apology jar here, you know? [ he stopped bringing it up after Betrayal, but now seems like an appropriate time to bring it up in a soft tease. ]
You can borrow whatever you want, though it'll be big on you.
A nice, over-sized bunny sweater. Though since it will be in my size it'll be about four times bigger on you. [ to emphasize, he reaches out and places his hand on the top of Phoenix's head. ]

1/...2? maybe?
Ah- [ water starts pouring out! ]

Shit--!!

he kind of. freezes, stunned by the sudden shift to sobbing and the way that his own stomach twists painfully at the sight.
he doesn't even realize that he's started moving again until after he's wrapped his arms around Phoenix's head to pull him into his chest. ]
