[ Thor doesn't note that it's probably because his father, who did disapprove of Jane, knew she'd be dead within 80 years or so, and therefore barely was a concern. He didn't intend to speak much of the age difference, so he pauses when it's put out there. ]

I would never call it a burden, and my brother is not impulsive, he would not agree to marry you if he felt that way. But you do know about the lifespan difference, yes?

Quite extreme, I believe.

And leaving me the much easier end of the bargain.

Our father was over five thousand years old when he died. Loki and I are fifteen hundred. It can be daunting to some people, but if it does not bother you, then that is what matters.

That's quite something. I, on the other hand, will be quite lucky for every year I live past the age of 40.

It seems a small thing to be overly heedful of in matter of the heart.

[angelpiratebaby]

I agree. Having decades with someone you love is far better than having no years at all. You do seem like a special person, William. I can see why my brother feels drawn to you.

I'm glad to hear it. I hope, in time, I'll prove a properly good fit as well.

[angelpiratebaby]

Just be kind to him and that is all I could ask for.

There are few simpler tasks, I think.

[angelpiratebaby]

You would think and yet he hasn't had much of it.

So many of the most wonderful souls seem to share that fate.

Still, a happy task to perform.

Our mother Frigga was very kind. She and Loki shared a very deep bond. I know she worried for him and his future.

I expect it still won't be easy. Even properly surrounding him with affection this way.
