[ When the messaged pinged Rhys couldn't help but cringe a little, so much for that....but it's not his fault Loki didn't see.
Loki will find Rhys in the cafeteria, no longer staring wistfully out at at the port he has been denied access to (it's too painful) and instead picking at some kinda gluten free, vegan, whatever else version of black forest cake that the automated machines offered up today (he skipped proper lunch)
Never mind. Unless it was ten seconds before you sent that message, it was far too late to matter. And that was the point, wasn't it? [He crosses his arms across his chest, settling more heavily against the wall.] Play both sides. If Theo succeeds, maybe you can make a run for it too. If not, you tried to warn me, so clearly you weren't complicit.
[Ymir's balls. That much sarcasm is just making his head ache. He sighs, kneading a knuckle into his temple, eyes closed.]
Sadly, that's a playbook I've used far too many times myself to fall for it.
[Hel, he used it enough that even Thor came to expect it.]
[ Honestly, Rhys is pretty surprised he even got part of his intentions correct. But even still, that's not entirely right.
He puts on an affronted expression, because he kind of is. ]
Uh, you really think I'd make a break for it after last time? I let you know the same day I got told, it's not my fault you didn't check your messages. Next time I'll put a big "EMERGENCY" sign in the subject, okay?
[ Theo's plan had always been too risky to bother getting on board with, the both sides started and ended with no one telling on Rhys. ]

That was the gist, yeah. Points for trying?

And how long were you aware of Theo's plan?
no subject
Since he told me?
no subject
Which was how long ago, exactly?

[He sighs. He can't believe he's saying this.]
You're not getting any further punishment. I'm just disappointed.
no subject
[ Right thing, wrong reasons but still. He can't believe he's getting chewed out from the side he was helping, he still took a risk there. ]
What was I supposed to do better here?
no subject
[He can't believe he's prompting this exercise, but apparently he has to.]
Imagine I withheld the same information from you, and you ended up knocked unconscious. I find it hard to believe you wouldn't be annoyed.
