For now Reynard has focused on adhering to his fellow spirit's lessons rather than bothering her about her recent encounters. He knows for a fact that if she wanted to speak with him then she would come to him herself, and in the meantime he'd better not take up too much of her precious time.

A grin curls the corner of his mouth. "This… doesn't really count as harsh. By all means, this is playful. I have exactly zero desire to get into a battle with you, of wits or otherwise."

Loki has his hidden agendas, Reynard has his own. Perhaps that's simply the way with creatures that find comfort in ice and darkness. Reynard is looking for something in these conversations, he's watching the people who he speaks to. He sees that touch of gentleness when he brings up the Asgardians again, confirming a small suspicion.

"That's a very selfless mission for a god described as being incredibly selfish. Are you helping them, or are you helping Thor?"
