But then she says the second part, and he pauses in his rejection. He knows very well what the standard Barge punishment is, and he's never found it to make any sense, much less be effective. There's a part of him that understands he can't ask for too much: even Gaius had once said that blood for blood has to end somewhere. Felix would have been willing to go after Loki if the new warden had ignored him as he'd expected, but... not only is she not, she's getting downright creative with the punishment.
She's going to hit Loki where it hurts. He can get behind that. Besides, now he knows another thing about the so-called god. He clears his throat and nods.]
