Mobius gives a sound that's somewhere between a laugh and a scoff. Doesn't answer about the being kinder, but, sure, point taken.

"A lot has changed. Are you gonna tell me everything that's happened to you, or is it painful to think about?"

Because that's a lot of what's behind Mobius and his reluctance. He doesn't want to recount his hands, or delve deep into the shard, or talk about Granitefell, or talk about even some of the more amazing things he's seen when it leaves him grieving and wanting. "I'm not trying to push you away." That pain is something he has to figure out himself; it's not on Loki to deal with or fix. "You can ask questions. Kinda feels like you just wanted everything to slide back into the way things were, and it's not like that. Not that easy."
