In this moment, Thor made a decision worthy of rule and Loki looked on him with more approval than he had before. He crossed to the broken table and bent to collect a silver tray from the splintered ruins, a sheen of green light enveloped it for a few seconds before he handed it over to his brother, using his other hand to cup the back of Thor's neck affectionately.

"You may use this to speak with me even between realms. I will enchant a mirror of my own, and you may speak with me so that neither of our hearts grow too sore with another separation so soon after reuniting."

Though, of course, it went without saying that he would not allow Thor to speak to Steven.

"Now I must prepare, you have given me little enough time to do it."
