"One of my hidden talents. A jester-- or one close to it, needs to know how to do some things very well at first." Which had just been lesson one of being a performer. Puck noted the emotions Loki had on display and smiled again.

"Oh? Well, that wasn't my intention, but I'm glad you enjoyed it." Puck paused for a moment. "I did mean it, before you ask. That probably colored the performance nicely." Puck took a breath and idly wiped at his eyes again, though he wasn't actively crying.
