Emotion.

[ It is a simple word said simply, but how convoluted it truly is! It isn't surprising that a temperamental person would use emotion as their grounding, but it doesn't always work -- not unless there's something specific, some feeling that is constantly running in the background -- a drive Loki cannot remember living without.

Ambition.

While Thor might have flashed her that lopsided smile of his whenever he felt proud of something he'd just said, Loki instead smiles blandly at her. This isn't an attempt at wit so much as it is withholding information. To impress Frigga. To make Odin proud of him. To stand as Thor's equal.

Such childish desires.
