I understand where you're coming from but that isn't how I work. If I die, if I lose, I cease to exist and another Loki takes my place, very likely a worse one. He steps into my role but he is never going to be me. I won't be Loki forever, I know that. I just want to be alive for a while longer.

Someone who turned around? Yes. Though it's never...
Clean. Or easy.

If you can't help it, then find a way to make it do what you want it to.

Happiness, the things that really matter, or 'winning'?
There are ways to lose and still get what you need. Or even what you want.

I've never really been happy, but I would prefer not to have to lose just to ensure others can 'win'.

What's more important?
Happiness or winning?
no subject
That would make me wildly happy.

But I understand more than you think.
And I know your first impulse will be to say no, you can't. You don't. No one does. No one ever will. I'm in a unique position.
You're not wrong. But you're not right.
But sometimes you have to look at why you're doing it. And what it's really doing for you. Who it's really serving.
Maybe winning is being able to lose and still be Loki.

Thanks for the talk, Clark. I'm all good now.

But I can't tell you. You have to understand it yourself.
I know you're not. But be well, Loki.
