[At least that would mean something reached Loki.]
I hear the answer is to smell worse than those around you. [The grin widens as Thor falls into step with Loki. Thor felt his brother had always placed more emphasis on cleanliness than he had, preferring quick, efficient exercise to the way Thor wore himself out.]
If that is some sort of comment on how I smell, Thor, I'm quite sure I don't appreciate it. [ He pauses at the turn of the hallway. ] If you are going to bathe, I shall return to my rooms. Surely I don't need a guard to go there.
[Thor's grin is very like that of a spoiled child who has gotten his way.
He recognises the pettiness of trying to get his brother to be involved, especially when Loki seems so set against it, but he counts each concession by Loki to be involved as a victory.
He runs his fingers through his own hair.] You may braid it yourself, if you like. I've not had the time recently to do it myself.
[ like this, he can nearly forget he's a prisoner. disrobing at thor's side, shrugging out of his tunic and trousers, and loki can nearly think it's as they were, children come in to bathe after a long day. ]
I'll be most displeased if we're interrupted... Though I suspect we will be. The others do enjoy your company far too much.
[ and Loki can see, even hidden behind a pillar as he is to properly undress, the reluctance the guard has. it seems no one really wishes to leave thor alone with him, a fact which makes loki's lips twist in a combination of smug pleasure and irritated frustration.
still, the guard finally agrees with a sharp nod of his head and a quiet, Yes, my Prince, and steps away to shut the door behind him, giving the two of them some semblance of privacy. ]
I did not think you'd actually request it, our solitude.

/o/ I AM THE LATEST HA
You have to bathe at some point. Might as well get it done with now, then you can lounge about and braid your hair in your rooms until dinner.
I'M STILL HERE <3
[ Loki replies fussily, brushing a lock of hair behind his ear with a sweep of his fingers. ]
And really. It is you whose hair ought to be braided.

Is there something I ought to fear?
