"I think it might be," Sif says of 'the point', for Loki. Hopes it is, anyway. She sets the disc of wine remaining in her cup to spinning and looks up at the prompt, mouth opening to answer.
But that twinkle in his eye draws down her brows and pushes out her jaw and instead of whatever she had been going to say she says, "This isn't funny, Thor. Having over and over again to choose between the two of you, the thought that whatever choice I make I may lose one of you? It is--." She jerks her head in a shake and blows a breath out her nose, one hand lifted to press fingers to temples and then slide them back through her hair, now long enough to at least mostly lie flat instead of sticking up every which way.
"If you disagreed I would try to convince you. And then I don't know. In all honesty," she says, with a lift and a slump of her shoulders, "I really do not know. I think that I might go. I believe this is how I can best serve Asgard, truly. And my duty is to Asgard, above everything else. If I can discover new worlds and bring back new treasures and perhaps help to bring Loki back to Asgard's side, all at once? Then that is what I need to be doing instead of sitting on Midgard bickering with your friends." She looks back up then, shaking her head as she meets his eyes, "I am sorry. You have my friendship and my loyalty, always, you know that. But I need to try this. It is for the best. Please understand."
