5 good qualities: Independent, indomitable, funny, perceptive, and contrary to popular opinion I actually think he's intensely loyal to specific people. 3 bad qualities: Petty, cowardly, self-pitying favorite moment/scene/etc: "Hurts, doesn't it? Being lied to? Being told your one thing and learning it's all a fiction." otp: Loki/Tony brotp: Loki+Valkyrie ot3: Loki/Valkyrie/Natasha (I read a fic, okay?? It was really good. (@////@) notp: Thor/Loki....Sorry! I just can't. Which sucks cause you all have the best naughty fanart and every time I see it I'm squicked and turned on at the same time and it's really confusing! best quote: "Your savior is here!" head canon: Okay, so my big headcanon for Loki is that he's actually really, really stingy. Given that he builds a gold statue of himself and clearly likes clothes and food, I think most people assume he'd be pretty loose about his spending.
But in Norse legends, nearly all of Loki's tricks are to avoid paying for things. The conception of Sleipnir? Hey, if I distract this guy we can get a wall for free? The crafting of Mjolnir? Ooooh, if I bet my head I can get all these fine Dwarven crafts for free! If you look a TON of the legends boil down to "Loki/the gods didnt' want to pay for something so Loki tried to cut a deal/backstab someone and it backfires."
So although it has nothing to do with MCU Loki at all, I love to write him as a fussy gay that has really expensive taste, but who is also ridiculously thrifty. He's incredibly nit-picky about balancing the royal accounts, reads all the rules and labels for everything looking for loopholes, and combs through the royal budgets every year looking for ways to cut costs.
Meanwhile the other Asgardians are like "Bro? We literally have a whole city of gold bro???" And Loki is like, "Well, yeah, but this hammer is still over priced! Why should we pay if we can get it for free? fREeeeEeEEe~!"
Gotta go with Loki!
