There was the possibility that people far less kind than Emma Swan (whom he realized he had not done much to keep tabs on -- knowing she was somehow from an earlier time made things feel precarious, and she had thankfully not tried to meddle with him or fuss). People who would not hesitate to "warn" others about him. At a time when he had as little magic as they would, it would have been even ground for a time.

And of course, there was another part of that. There were some people that might appear here, and his goodwill and reputation would be threatened not because of anything they could say? But because he would probably kill them and would not be subtle about it.

"To having a place to start over without others to meddle, then."

"We can hope. It has been surprising that there are those who know of me, or a version of me, who are still pleased to see me. I hope you are able to find similar acceptance and kindness." Loki acknowledged, raising his tea-cup to the other for a moment.

"Honestly, I am far more accustomed to being accosted with the same question or two when it is someone who isn't from my world." Gold raised his cup and took a sip. "It gets old after a while."

"I can imagine so." Loki said dryly. His mind briefly went back to all the threats to 'kill' him should he betray Thor again. It was amusing, even though it had been equal parts annoying and somewhat infuriating at the time. He'd quipped back then, to show how very little it mattered to him.

Gold was really tired of being asked if he steals babies. He knew the tale, but that was still a rather impertinent question to put forth. Especially when the one you're asking could easily lose their temper. "But no, the reputation issues come more from people who knew me on my own turf. To everyone else we're just stories."

"Everyone is a story to someone." Loki pointed out, although he could relate a bit. "For what it's worth, I took nothing against nor for you when finding out your true name and story. Other than, as you'd already mentioned, you're good with contracts. And that you can spin stuff into gold, which I still very much want to see."

Meaning Loki was absolutely not going to judge the other.

"I am sure our proprietess will be wanting a demonstration as well, when I am able again." Briefly he looked over his hands. "I think I'm not far off, but I'm not quite there yet."
