"But how are they.... worse, than Asgard?" she asked, biting her lip and smiling up at him.
The combination of her attempts to be appealing to him and her interest in the topic made it come off as though she were particularly into the thought.

"Well, you see..."
He sat beside her and enfolded one of her little hands in his.
"Midgard has always been of interest to much of the rest of the universe. Its general isolation and insignificance in the grand scheme of things make it such an attractive target..."
He kissed her, smirking lightly against her mouth.
"So, it became necessary to protect it, from the Kree and the Ourusian farm works and the Jotnar..."

"The same, more or less, or else simply a buffer zone against one another," he said with a shrug. "I imagine that's why this place is so generally aberrant."

"Loki, there are literally thousands of individual, unique cultures on my world, and all of them deserve the right to rule themselves as they see fit - individual cultures aren't the problem I thought you and I should rule and I actually planned to let them oversee their own things, just with us acting as a sort of... universal higher power that interferes with disputes, and speeds up the political process if individually people are fucking up."
