Farewell, Wanderlust is such a perfect song for the character
3, 43, and 50 for whichever version of Loki is your favorite?
I'm not shy about Blood Brothers Loki being my fave Marvel!Loki (and only second to my idea of myth!Loki), but as my last ask was very thorough on old comics!Loki and included Blood Brothers, I'll pick another one.
Also, is it Marvel!Loki or any? I'll pick two that were formative to me and aren't as conceptual as "my idea of myth!Loki": MCU!Loki and Alan Cumming's Loki in Son of the Mask. They're not necessarily the best or accurate to the myths, but they were formative to me. I don't know how to explain it but they do have a similar vibe despite the different tones of their movies. Their characterizations are not mutually exclusive.
3. What first drew you to this character?
SOTM!Loki: He was the first Loki I ever encountered and introduced my monotheistic Catholic child brain to the idea of an imperfect deity. I'm an Atheist, but in a way, he helped me. I was always freaking out over going to hell for thoughts I had, or lies I told, or things I broke by accident. To find out there was a god of pranks and lies was very neat to me. The idea a deity out there wouldn't condemn me over lies and was as imperfect as me was appealing and interesting to a child that broke everything.
It was a new concept to me, because I only knew a god to be a perfect being. And Christian-influenced portrayals of patriarch deities such as Disney's Hercules, tended to code Zeus as "good" and Hades as some sort of Devil figure in a sort of hellish underworld. So they didn't challenge my idea of a god (i.e. the idea that Hades was also a god did not register to me; plus the plot kinda went over my head cus I didn't have a good grasp of language yet). Also, he dresses like a 2000s mall goth!!!
MCU!Loki: His paranoia in Thor (2011). I am a very paranoid person who has a bunch of unhealthy habits such as eavesdropping because I want to have a plan, if someone's going to act against me. I also associate him with someone I was infatuated with that I consider my first real friend.
My version of myth!Loki is more of a concept that lives in my head rent-free because I found Loki hilarious in the mythology.
43. What type of weather makes you think of this character?
MCU!Loki: A cold winter night.
SOTM!Loki: A hot Summer day.
My version of myth!Loki: Windy day. People sleep on the wind association too much for my taste. And I know they're not a wind deity. But the eating contest between Loki and Logi is about the association of the air that keeps the hearth burning. The windy weather also applies to the current iteration comics!Loki/Ikol, as they've tried getting closer to the myths. I think talking about my interest in the current comics!Loki wouldn't be very interesting because I got into Loki a few years before they existed. So if I know them know it was due to four other pre-existing Lokis (i.e. SOTM, MCU, OG Marvel Loki, and myth!Loki)
50. Link your fav song, playlist, aesthetic board, fan-fiction, reference pile, personal artwork, analysis post, meme, headcanon, or quote for this character. Whichever one (s) you are most comfortable with!
MCU!Loki: You and Not Me-Devour the Day from my MCU!Loki playlist.
My version of myth!Loki: The Jester-Badflower also from my MCU!Loki playlist.
SOTM!Loki: Slept So Long by Korn because he's this ancient being invoked into action by his mask falling into mortal hands at Odin's behest. It's also such a 2000s mall goth edgelord song and he's such a mall goth.
Also I'll give some songs for stories deity comics!Loki/Skald!Loki because I have those at hand and I like recommending songs:
Farewell, Wanderlust-The Amazing Devil
New Low-Middle Class Rut
Trust Me from The Devil's Carnival (fun musical) fits a lot of Lokis. I'm surprised I haven't seen many edits to this song lol.
Hey, thanks for replying!
I actually have been able to clarify that it was loki contacting me. I basically used osteomancy (but with cinnamon sticks instead of bones) to confirm. I was also gifted a wooden pendulum since then, and it had worked well so far.
He's also given me some wacky dreams when I have asked. I wanted to try and use the dreams to attempt direct communication, but instead he pranked me :(
Thanks again for the help, and I'm glad to have figured it out
hey! i've been having some experiences lately that feel like loki is reaching out that i dont fully know what to do with.
so as of late, i've been lighting a candle while doing schoolwork just as a "come and chill with me" thing (i do have protections up ofc), but i keep having these experience since i've started this, being less than a week.
so i have chronic back pain from scoliosis, and i've been having minor flare-ups of pain for the past week or so (which isn't why i started the candle thing btw). but since i have started this, i've been getting this strange sensation in my spine. like it feels almost like a breeze that goes up my spine, but on the inside, like through my spine and muscles themselves. i wish i had a better way to explain the feeling, but since i've started this practice that's been happening, which has never happened before and i have been unable to find a scientific explaination for this.
the reason i'm thinking this is loki is mainly just based on intuition (whatever little of it i may have as a beginner). the action just feels like him in a way that i can't explain (which, as i am writing this, it is happening more so it almost feels like a confirmation :') ). i don't feel comfortable trying to read the candle flame bc its a shitty cheap candle that is behaving in the way that a low-quality candle would behave (according to my meager research in trying to find an answer to this). i also am very bad at tarot/runes at the moment and don't feel truly confident in getting an answer from them due to my inexperience.
do you have any suggestions as to what i can look into to possibly confirm/deny what's going on?
thanks so much for your time :)
This is a late reply so idk if you’re still figuring things out, but if tarot/runes are still evading you, you can always ask for dreams, signs, or portents. Deities are usually pretty chill about proving themselves and offering clarification.
what about sex-repulsed aro-ace people who like making lewd jokes and innuendos for the sake of irony? (me)
Reblog this if you support sex-averse and sex-repulsed aces, including:
Aces who never want to have sex
Aces who had sex in the past but don't desire it anymore
Aces with sexual trauma who feel like their trauma ties into their asexuality
Aces with sexual trauma who don't feel like their trauma caused their asexuality
Aces who don't want to talk to you about sex
Aces who don't want to hear about sex
Yes even aces who do not want to engage with any sexual content and don't want it in their own personal spaces
Yes even aces who express the desire to have more spaces for queer adults where their boundaries are met (on top of the queer spaces that exist, we do not want to sanitize your existing spaces ffs)
If you cannot be normal about these people existing, if you believe they're a threat to our community and to how we're viewed by people who aren't aspec and the rest of the LGBTQ+ community, you are not an asexual ally. Yes, even if you're aspec yourself. Especially if you're aspec yourself.
Because it's been pride month for 4 days and I'm already seeing people trying to throw us under the bus or pretend we don't exist because that makes the ace community more palatable to exclusionists and people who swallowed too much "aces are puritans" propaganda.
i totally agree with you guys on this. don't like it? don't read it. this is as someone who goes between the tags because sometimes it's the only loki content i can really get, especially when it comes to new fanart. but i still love to be in the critical tags as well, because no matter how much i love loki in the fandom space, seeing him be butchered so badly still hurts, and the meta on this side is, in my opinion, far better than the other side of the community.
you (anon) can also be intersectional. you can be dialectical in the content you consume because the media that exists will never 100% match what you want it to be. yes, loki (the series) is good, as far as marvel shows go. but it could have been great. it could have taken a deep dive into loki's character, answered questions without explicit answers in the mcu.
can i be disappointed that the degredation of loki's character is connected to tom? absolutely. but what i am not willing to do is to throw him under the bus, because he is not the sole creator in this, and he is just one of up to a hundred people that are to blame for how loki's characterization, some of which are from long before the loki series in thor: ragnarok, infintiy war, and endgame. they set the building blocks for loki's mischaracterization, which is why so many people in the community didn't realize that the character had really been manipulated into something he isn't.
criticism is not inherently disrespectful. as a community, the people who are anti-loki series or critical of the loki series can still have respect for tom. i sure do.
I really hate the anti-Loki series blogs on here. You don’t like it? Ok cool, why make it everyone else’s problem and disrespect Tom as a person? You’re no fan of Tom, you don’t deeply respect him if you act like that.
Then why look at said blogs, anon? No, really, tell me I'm curious. I'm not going to anybody's inbox, unlike some fans, even if I deeply dislike what they enjoy.
I don't think critiquing an actor's work is disrespectful to said actor. You don't even know whether what Tom's saying under Disney's contracts are his real opinions, he is paid to promote the content. Neither you or I know him.
I'm sorry for you if you equate blind praise to being someone's fan. That is not how people interact with media and its creators. You can support someone and still be critical of their work as long as you are not crossing any boundaries of said actor and doing so without attacking them. And yes, I am not a fan of his new releases, that's no secret.
not gonna lie, when i saw that a cybertruck had exploded i legit didn't realize it was some sort of premeditated thing, i just thought it was just another extreme flaw in it's design. i had no idea fireworks were involved, i honest to god thought it just did that on its own
pls i need more boops
Reblog if its ok to spam you with boops
listen up chucklefucks, i just gotta say. I'm not defending zir, but I'm sad zie deactivated. Like, i get that trauma lasts a long time and the good stuff is maybe easy to forget?? so maybe it's just like that. And my beloved mutual @/pompeyspuppygirl made a post about zir clout chasing behavior, which is pretty shitty behavior if it's true (and if we're canceling someone it had better be pretty severe). anyways now that zie's gone pompeyspuppygirl said it was okay to make this post (again, thanks ppg everyone go follow her--really everyone in this whole drama is worth a follow)
ANYways yeah zie was my mutual and like, reblogged a lot my smaller posts. (that isn't to discredit what my mutual pompeyspuppygirl is saying about zie clout chasing ofc). AND idk zie was always reblogging art from new and undiscovered artists and reblogging donation posts (which if you don't know is really bad if you're trying to clout chase...) (again, though, ppg is my mutual i believe her.) and like, remember on valentines day i tried to blaze zir posts and zie told me to stop because zie didn't want the posts to go viral? (but again ppg is my mutual and has a lot of proof in the Google doc I'm not trying to disprove that I'm just saying what else I know)
Idk, like i feel like a lot of people loved zir's blog a while back, bc like zie DID make some good posts?? So idk why everybody's acting like they aren't even a little bit sad.,. like ngl this feels like maybe all the reasonable people left to Twitter and all the Twitter refugees who love drama came here??? shdfhhdhdhdhdh haha but idk...look idk, i just, julie i do miss you. idk. more thoughts later sorry I'm getting worked up shshs
