#heee I'm excited to see how they interact

Describing the innate instinctual nudge proved challenging, yet, preceding even that, she had detected a distinct magical trace. There was an undeniable recognition that transcended the mortal plane. Presently taking a human form, rationale minimally dictated that she looked. Eventually, she did. Thankfully, words were not imperative for communication. Cloak fixed Loki with a piercing stare, a narrowed gaze and perhaps, a tableau of intrigue only for a half-hearted smirk to surface a moment later, daring him to look away.

He wasn't supposed to be in this part of the Sanctum, much of the house off limits to its half-guest-half-prisoner. The texts on these shelves, however, were not particularly dangerous, not enough to be warded. Loki would not have been able to access them otherwise with the wristband he was currently forced to wear that dampened his powers.

With the sorcerers sleeping, he had not expected to meet someone else. Someone who had managed to move quietly enough for them to escape his notice. If he were lucky, they wouldn't know what he was or wasn't permitted. Something about them felt familiar.

Her smirk was curious. She reminded Loki then of someone from his past. He resisted the urge to avert his gaze and instead solidified it, turning to face her properly.

"And just who might you be?"
