It's customary to have a Wake after the subject thereof dies. Even Loki knows that. But this is a special occasion. Ego-death is coming to his alternate, and the idea of letting him go off to perish alone, uncertain he will even be mourned, is too dark a proposition even for a flawed and callous person to contemplate.
That, and this Loki has been in a melancholy mood since speaking to the spirit of Frigga. He anticipates a dark choice of his own, sooner or later, and where the fates will send him after that, he can't know. Maybe oblivion, although even at that rate there may be worse places.
What's important right now is that no one dies unremembered. And honestly, any excuse formischief a party. The first text rolls out to Harley, an innocent enough invitation to join them for milkshakes. Cricket is next, because it occurs to him that Cricket has plenty of liquor, which is good for a reckless celebration.

"And you, friend? What can I call you?"

He offers a hand to shake, and though it's clad in a golden gauntlet, there's nothing Infinity about it, nor about the matching one on his other hand. "I am Azwel." He's gotten used to people in this Nexus not having heard of him, so he leaves it at that.

"Charmed to meet you, Azwel. How kind of you to join us!" He shakes hands without any evident fear of having his vulnerable fingers crunched by metal.
