There had never been a choice like this before, and while it might seem to Loki like it might be difficult for Natasha, she has lived through so much. A full life more than some who life four times as long as she does. She's able to tell the tales of pain and love, and what more does a woman need. Now she's at long last been given something her heart could never hope to grasp in the past. Giving up acquaintances and a few friends, and one true friend is something that she will find heartache in, but that Loki will be able to soften the blow of.
He is her destiny, and she knew it the moment they came together as one. It's hard to describe anything that has happened to them here in this space. It's still as if someone has pulled them out of time, and made this a temporal bubble of discovery and richness, a place for them to find exactly what they've been waiting for all their lives. There is no person she will ever want again in her life, and having the joy of being able to see her friends across their lives is a great gift. Taking hands with Loki and living with him as his queen will be an enormous and glorious gift made for her. She knows it now. No stars could align any more perfect to make it so.
Watching Loki as he looks over at her, she feels the same. How could she not. There's perfection in every part of him. She sees what others may not. There's the frost giant that casts a pallor over his skin, and sets his jaw, there's the light in his eyes that come from spending so many years under the tutelage of Frigga. He may have had so much pain there, but his mother was light and magic and loved him dearly, as he did her. There's even the blessed strength imparted by the Allfather, Odin himself. No matter how much hatred Loki had for him at times, they did end up together in the end. If she was not the one meant for him-- then she would not have been granted this sight. No, she would not be able to see him as he truly is, not all the beauty in every light.
"There are two methods of burning scarification, love. One is electrical, done with a spark of electricity, and the other is straight heat. We still might have to do it several times for both of us, to see how we heal, but it is something I do want so much. I want to mark and be marked. I want time to know that we belong to one another, no only in this world, but in every world."
"Now touch me before I go insane for want of you, and your hands and body next to mine. I will come back there and place myself on you."
