When she's gone, he reaches out for a moment, silent, testing with his fingertips the spot where X had faded out. It feels like...no, he's not sure.
Loki drops his hand, and then drops himself back against the tiller, laughing aloud. "Nicely done, Lady X," he says to the air. "Nicely done." Now then. He has no idea where Mt. Rainier is, and no immediate way to reach the Earth of his universe. But he's all right with losing--this time.
It'll be hilarious, though, if X comes back to this exact spot in the air and plummets down to the rocks and trees with no skiff beneath her feet, so while he has his laugh he nudges the skiff along its course.
(Damn right the multiverse's existence trembles at his actions. Maybe this particular Loki hasn't succeeded yet in anything to really make galaxies shake, but he'll be disappointed with himself if he never does.)
