Though there was not much outward change on James Barnes, Loki likely had still cleared out a few of her choices, but there were still far too many for her to definitively pick just one. Gone were the versions of James that knew only Loki as male, or who had met him more then four times, and most of those who could bear the thought having any other version of himself returning to his Steve while they languished alone. Of the few that lingered, they were the selfish. They believed themselves all to be the Barnes that would be selected to return home.
It was not a good spot for Loki to be in. Already, the spectre was changing, warring with itself. As the goodness that remained through the abused vanished, the hostile, ready to kill Barnes that Loki mentioned remained.
She had her magic here, but the ghosts and spirits of the lost were stronger in this Realm. She would not be able to stop him if he attacked, and it was likely that Hel would not either.
