I'm me. You seem to be having trouble aligning that if I shapeshift or mention I died, but gods don't work like that, Hiccup. I'm Loki, I have been and ever will be. Think of me as a new iteration at my own behest.
[ murdering his own childself along the way, but that's a whole can of worms he doesn't want to open up over his pancakes tyvm. ]
I grew, I aged, I did all those things you've heard about, albeit with a bit of extra flair here and there most likely, and then when I died I happened to come back; a renewed cycle.
So I didn't do any of the things I definitely did do. Do you see?
Sure, I guess that... makes sense. [Not really, but he's sure he'll make sense of it with time. Probably.]
All I'm saying is that I would just really like to know who you are based on this, on what I see now, who I'm meeting. I know from experience that it's best not to judge based on some old stories. I mean, they got dragons completely wrong, so I guess I'd just rather find out who you are based on the you now instead of whatever people have been cooking up about you for years. If that makes any sense.
You don't give off that impression. [ but he shrugs, sitting back as he finishes eating at last, leaving a number of plates for hiccup to foot the bill for. oops. godly appetite. ] If you're so desperate for deets, why don't we play a game?
[ yessss. ]
An old game. A question for a question, and the answers can't include embellishment or wordplay, nothing but the absolute truth. Up for it? The winner is the one who doesn't get stuck on a reply.
[He just stares at the plates with squinted eyes, not even having eaten anything himself. Somehow the idea of playing a game seems like an awful idea.]
A game, huh? And what does the winner get? Somehow making the loser pay for lunch looks like that's out of the question either way.

Okay, I guess I'll start off simple. What's your favorite thing to eat then?

[ he's a pig for it, ordering it every single time the opportunity passes in a diner. ]
Am I a disappointment, compared to what you expected of me?
[ YOU CAME TO THE WRONG GAME, SON. ]

[For the most part.]
I'm actually pretty impressed that you're a rather ordinary guy, to be honest. Even relieved, I guess.
