And saying I don't get to choose if I want to take that risk isn't right either. [He glances back at Loki again, frowning a bit in thought.] Right. I didn't think anybody was listening.
[He meant to keep up a pointed look, but then Loki continues. Whatever he'd been expecting Loki to say? It wasn't that. It definitely wasn't that and the look Loki receives in return sort of openly betrays everything he's thinking from that one little sentence. He's busted. He's so busted and he's confused how Loki found out, a little betrayed that Loki apparently knew and didn't tell him that he knew, and mostly worried about what's going to come next. Who else knows? Does Jason know? Saber? How screwed is he?
There's also the fact that without realizing it he's shifting over just slightly to put himself between Loki and Nico. Just in case. He doesn't think Loki's going to do anything (actually, he knows) but he can't be too careful.
What matters is the fact that Loki knows and now he has to make sure to satisfy his curiosity enough that he doesn't get either of them in trouble. Neither confirming nor denying, he looks at Nico again.]
This is Loki. You've...probably heard of him because of everything. ["Everything" being a fancy way of saying "because you're part-god." He's also taking care not to provide Nico's name. That's up to Nico to decide.]
