Loki was absolutely not ready
Loki was many thing.

He was son of Frigga and Thor’s brother.

Please told him that his brother was just acting and wasn't really in love with Thanos’ crush!

Carol Danvers blinked once, blinked again just to be sure, then turned around and raised an eyebrow at Nick Fury.
So, why were you sending a distress signal again?
Fury on the other hand, was too busy to respond.
He was busy cursing and screaming on the phone, telling agents Barton and Romanoff to move the Avengers’ lazy asses, and detain the ugly purple alien, together with the guy who beat the said purple alien of fucking course.
