[ it always strikes him as odd when people willingly tell him secrets without the proper precautions. information like that was used for his own selfish pursuits, and it defied its purpose if it was freely given. on the other side of the jewelcomm, Loki's face scrunches up at the admission, before deflating in a sigh. ]
Well ... the possibility is always there that she'll find out eventually. [ says the person who never ever told anyone else that Thor had been there. ] The timeline is a precarious place for keeping secrets, due to the nature of the beast.

But being married to you makes it difficult to imagine what may be in the spectrum of overwhelming.
[ it is, isn't it. luke might yet be transferred back ( a hope anakin still nurses. ) or rey or finn. all of them who know of what happened to the jedi and to the republic. ( kylo ren would be decapitated on the spot. ) luke would be the cruelest of them without warning. padmé would love him, and be so proud of him; what a blow, then, to know their child never knew her or him.
anakin knows it'd be better to tell her. he also knows this isn't a good time. ( there will never be a perfect time were he perfectly honest. ) and there are his own doubts to contend with, the unhappiness she hides that he can still sense in the force, and a dozen other things until his thoughts spiral again. the hero with no fear. if only they'd known the truth.
loki has a point. not that will stop anakin from warning without an ounce of genuine intention behind it, ] I take it back. You're not meeting her.
[ it's Anakin's choice, one way or the other. it's always better to tell someone, but it never really works out that way. in Loki's experience, he's too busy avoiding the issues to really dive into them. it had gotten him no where but exiled, beaten and cast away. to say that it didn't end well was an understatement. ]
Perhaps she's just whelmed?
[ he's pushing his luck, and there's a little smile in his voice. ]

[ TAKE THAT.
but yeah he'll probably shut up later. ]
