That's right! You got it.

[He smiles, total and unabashed appreciation]

[hisoldtricks]

You seem to be taking your situation in this place rather well. I would have thought you would feel a bit more put out to have your duties disrupted.

[on_thin_ice]

Pssh, no way. I travel all the time. Besides, it's nice to be in a place where I can actually talk to people. And they even talk back!

[hisoldtricks]

Starved for conversation then. Are there no other spirits or guardians that you can converse with back in your world?

[on_thin_ice]

[His smile falters slightly, but it's still there]

There are plenty, but I'm still new to the job and they're kinda busy with ...stuff.

[hisoldtricks]

[Oh now, this was making a little more sense to him. No wonder the other felt young to him, despite the fact he was a spirit in charge of a season.]

Their own duties perhaps?

[on_thin_ice]

Pretty much. It involves a lot of hard work, while winter is well, easy.

[hisoldtricks]

[That makes Loki frown. Oh but does it make him frown.]

Does it? What precisely is easy about winter? If one does not prepare for it, they can find themselves dead.

[on_thin_ice]

Wow, that's depressing. I'm saying it's easy to set up, right Wind?

[The Wind whistles encouraging, playing with Jack's hair]

[hisoldtricks]

Reality often is. [The whole calling on the wind like a pet, he still finds unsettling.] You control one of the harshest seasons, whether you think of it that way or not.

[on_thin_ice]

[Jack blinks]

It's not always harsh. It's fun too. There's nothing that's just ... one sided.

[hisoldtricks]

[Loki merely gives Jack a flat expression. ]

Fun. One man's fun, can easily be another man's pain.

[on_thin_ice]

Uh. I don't think we're talking about the same thing here. Kids love it.
