It's a side of Loki that Prometheus didn't exactly not expect, but is glad to see all the same. He only hopes that the deity does not burn himself out protecting his people before Thor can return.

Because Thor will. Obviously. Gods don't die. Or if they do, they come back. Or if they don't, then you find Hades and pester him and maybe wrestle his dog for a while and then they come back. That's how it's done in his pantheon, anyway.

"My Earth is always an option, too. Although they may prefer a place that has more experience with non-humans." Not that they wouldn't blend in, at first glance, but that difference in aging might cause some problems.

Catching sight of Rindr rounding up the first group of refugees, he dares to give Loki another clasp to the shoulder in farewell, hoping he does not rattle his already frayed nerves. "Until I return, then."
