#loki head canon

[aurorawest]

Thoughts on the popular fandom take that loki never killed anyone pre thor 1?

Well, it's not my head canon, but I guess it doesn't make me roll my eyes too hard. I find it incredibly unlikely that Loki had never killed anyone before for two reasons: 1) Asgard is a warrior culture and we have canon references to battles that Thor and the W4 have been in. Occam's Razor here—it's reasonable to believe Loki fought in those battles too, even if he isn't explicitly mentioned. And 2) Tom Hiddleston does not play the battle on Jotunheim like it's Loki's first time killing someone. Loki is presented in that scene as a highly competent fighter.

"But Aurora!" you might say. "That was just the adrenaline! Later, killing someone for the first time would hit him!" And while sure, that may be true (I have never killed anyone or been in combat so I can't offer any firsthand experience), the popular portrayal of a soldier's first time taking a life is that it's a very difficult moment. If Loki was just caught up in the battle, driven by adrenaline, and we were supposed to believe it was his first time killing anyone, wouldn't Branagh have given us a scene of Loki struggling with that? Because we get quite a few scenes of Loki struggling with things after returning from Jotunheim...killing Jotuns in combat isn't one of those things.

If we're going to go down the "Loki never killed anyone pre-Jotunheim battle" road, let's think about point 2 for a second. What does that say about Loki that he's never killed anyone before, and suddenly he does, and it doesn't appear to bother him in the slightest? When we see that so many other things bother Loki quite a bit? If you want to head canon Loki as a sensitive soul who hates killing, you're actually undermining it by insisting Loki hasn't ever killed before.

And as someone who does head canon Loki as a sensitive soul who hates killing, my head canon is that he's been in multiple battles and wars, that he despises it, but that he's learned to shove those feelings down.

You know, now that I've written this whole thing, I think I'm rolling my eyes at people head canoning that Loki's never killed pre-Thor 1, after all.

I love head cannoning characters as ao3 authors because then you can just use the ao3 curse as the reason behind why their life is so fucked and why they have so much trauma.

Like oh all your friends and family died or were grievously injured or ill? ao3 curse.

Your house caught on fire and all your possessions were destroyed? ao3 curse.

You got caught in an apocalypse? ao3 curse.

You were arrested for crimes you didn’t (or maybe did) commit? ao3 curse.

You got severe amnesia and forgot your life and identity? ao3 curse.

You died before eventually coming back to life somehow? ao3 curse.

Your birthday cake fell on the floor right before you got to eat it? ao3 curse.

Quin, for the kink headcanons, may I ask for the following:

Hate sex, stuck in a wall, and mutual masturbation for...

Pre time skip AND post time skip Eustass Kid. And also...Loki

Raven \o/ My love! My darling! My Partner in crime 💖🥰✨

After this we can get ice cream and then kidnap @icy-spicy before we hop a flight to Germany for some cookies >.>

Ahem, anyway, anyway -- Okay so Hate sex, mutual masturbation, and stuck in a wall. Mutual masturbation can be people in a room taking care of themselves OR getting each other off. I like the second one more, so I'm going with that.

Pre-TS Kid AND Post-TS Kid >.> hmm, hmm, gonna make me think about nuances and shit, I see how it is XD

Alright, let's get to it \o/

Pre-TS Eustass Kid:

Hate Sex - FUCK yes - Scratching, biting, slapping, hair pulling, calling each other names even as you're clawing your clothes off. There's nothing better. And given the whole hate part of hate sex, there's no messy emotions to get in the way afterward. You're both inclined to go your separate ways later. Hate's just as hot-button as love can be, so there's a comparable rush, and you don't have to give him your number afterward.

Unless you want him to call you up and degrade you when he feels like it. He might charge you for that privilege though.

Mutual Masturbation - Yes - Young Eustass Kid would rather be railing your ass into the floorboards, but there's nothing wrong with a little mutual masturbation. It's liable to turn into a contest, or edging, or both.

Who can hold out longer? You're definitely going to cum before him, and if you don't believe him that's okay. The way your fingers tremble against his shaft when he curls his fingers inside you, oh sweetheart, don't lie like that. Maybe this mutual masturbation stuff can be more fun than he thought.

Stuck in a wall - Oh god you don’t even know - A tight hole stuck in a tight hole, well who is he pass up such an opportunity? Don't worry too much, he'll get permission before he hilts inside you. He'll get you out of the wall when he's done too.

Might be a few hours.

Post-TS Eustass Kid:

Hate Sex - Sure - Don't get him wrong, the rough sex is still fun. Pull his hair and slap his face if it's going to get you off, he'll grin and rail you until you're too blissed out to show him any emotion except lust. You can call him names and he'll give as good as he gets, but at this point he's starting to find that there's things he enjoys more than the spice of anger.

Brat taming's more fun, and if a one-night-stand hate fuck turns into you being a snarky little mouse, collared at his feet, then he won't need the hate fucks anymore, will he?

Mutual Masturbation - FUCK Yes - The enthusiasm might be a little more than before, but the asshole behavior is still there. Refined, and more skillful, but still there. You're going to be on your 3rd orgasm, shivering and struggling to focus, and this bastard's going to be asking when you'll finally get him off.

If he stops it won't be mutual masturbation anymore, so of course he has to keep going. You can always throw the towel in and admit he's the best, and maybe he'll show you mercy. If not, you probably only have one or two more orgasms in you before you're not going to be able finish him off. Better stay focused, little mouse.

Stuck in a wall - FUCK Yes - Sure, it's great fun, and yes he's all here for it, but over time he's realized that while the whole scenario is Definitely Hot, it does have some draw backs.

Depending on the wall, he can't see you, and fuck you're a sight to see when you're losing your mind because of him. Depending on the wall he can't hear you clearly, and he deserves to enjoy all the sounds he's forcing out of you.

So yeah, it's a Fuck Yes, when you're stuck in the custom wall he's made. You can wriggle and struggle and you're not going to go anywhere, and he can still see and hear you. The best of everything. He'll even pad the hole so that when you pass out it's all nice and comfy for you.

Loki:

Hate Sex - Sure - Is there any other kind? (My vibes for Loki aren't set in stone by any means, so I'mma do my best).

I get the weird sense this guy's a romantic, but fuck if you get to know that. So sure, he's in for the hate sex, but he's just so godsdamned emo about it, cause is there any other kind? There's no reason to get excited about it, if all the sex you're having is hate sex.

Mutual Masturbation - FUCK Yes - There might be some logistical issues to sort out, given the size difference that you're dealing with. But he's willing to try all the adjustments and positions needed to make it work - much as he can.

This is one time you might see the softer side of him, or at least end up with a full understanding of just how careful his control can be.

>.> For some reason, I can't shake the idea that he makes you cum over and over and there's just the lil' satisfied smirk on his face when you finally cum so many times you fall asleep. He'll get himself off with one hand, and keep you safe and warm with the other

Stuck in a wall - I keep trying, I do, but this guy spent so long chained to a tree, and every time I'm like "What would his rating for this be" All I can see in my head is this:

And I can't

🤣

I'm sorry XD Forgive me Raven - I just - I feel like he's gonna need a few years before he find any appeal in anything restrictive. 😭 for him or his partners.

How May I Kink Your Head Canon?

[chikchirkun]

Something about Thor and Loki both being jealous of each other is so perfectly dysfunctional. It would create such a deep narrative.

Loki is jealous of Thor because he’s a firstborn and a trueborn, he’s a stronger warrior, he’s the ideal of Asgardian masculinity. Those are the traits that make Odin favour him.

Thor is jealous of Loki because he’s smarter intellectually and emotionally, he’s more talented in seiðr, he’d make a better king. Those are the traits that make Frigga favour him.

They hold their strengths close to the chest, never extending them to uplift each other. They are competing for their parents’ love, because they can’t be equal in their eyes. Someone has to be favoured, someone has to be neglected. This competition isolates them, the jealousy festers and poisons their relationship, they become estranged.

When their parents die, they talk to each other honestly for the first time in centuries and confess that they were always jealous of each other. No, it’s can’t be, it is I who was jealous of you, how could you be jealous of me?

They reconcile and turn their mutual jealousy into mutual admiration, because there is nothing to compete for. They learn to be with instead of against each other. They learn to use their strengths to protect each other’s weaknesses. They heal.

So I have been playing a lot of Marvel Rivals this week and I would like to talk about the design choices for Asgard a bit and share some screenshots I took.

As you can see they styled most of the "Yggsgard" outdoor map after the MCU version of Asgard. Really cool to just be able to walk around there. Of course, the areas used for battle have a really different layout and the interior design is also completely different from both the comics and the MCU.

For example, this is what they did with the throne, which is more reminicent of what they did with Asgard in Ragnarok and after, which I personally dislike a bit. On that note, the infamous Loki statue also makes a return and there is a reward for destroying it. Fun fact: in the Jeff's Winter Splash Festival game mode, it is turned into an ice statue.

Character design wise they take inspiration from both the comics and the MCU and add their own flair. I'm sure you've seen Loki's redesign already, but I wanted to show a picture of both Loki and Thor as kids that you can find in one of the spawn areas.

Loki has the "Kid Loki" look from the comics (yes I know the show tried to retcon it, but I don't see OG!MCU!Loki wearing that outfit as a child, sorry comic fans). But that was definitely what young!MCU!Thor was wearing in one of the first scenes in Thor 1 and I think Frigga also looks more like she does in the movies. Odin visually seems a bit more like in the comics, though. So do with that information what you want.

Anyway, it's a ton of fun being able to just wander about Asgard. In the game it's been merged with Yggdrasil for some reason, which is why it's called Yggsgard. But still, I like how much inspiration they took from the MCU. Probably because it's design for Asgard is more iconic.

There has to have been at least one person on the creative team for Loki that was like “hey if we do all this, it will look queer. Like very gay.” And they definitely shot that person down with the “not everything has to be gay” and the “we’re just trying to show a strong healthy male friendship! :)”

Bro warned them defo.

They defo didn’t listen.

Abt this funny post summing up tje avengers movie. Do u have meta on what loki was doing in the first avengers relating to "not actually wanting to win the battle of new york" idk

I guess I don't really have meta, because I don't really subscribe to that theory? At least not in the sense that you often see people talk about it, where he throws the battle on purpose. I guess what I think is that deep down, some part of him knew Thanos had brainwashed him. Maybe, subconsciously, he didn't fight to his full ability?

I guess an analogy would be like, professional sports players. Their job is to win games, but maybe their heart isn't totally, 100% in every game for whatever reason. Maybe sometimes they even want to be traded, which, obviously, they need to play well for another team to want them, but maybe their lack of commitment to their current team means they don't play to their full potential.

One of my head canons about Loki is how desperately he hates the idea of choice being taken away from him. So I don't think he would have purposefully lost the Battle of NY, because I don't think he would have wanted to admit that Thanos was controlling him in any capacity. He'd rather be a monster than have control over his own mind or actions taken away from him. This is covered pretty heavily in my fic Here, Here and Here, and to some extent in Afterimage, as well.

my toxic trait as an ace person is thinking every character i relate to is a virgin until proven otherwise

[tsuyoiqueen]

[ginny-lily]

Oh but Yggdrasil is beyond beautiful obviously

[brujaporfavor]

Not me head cannoning a female Thor variant (from Slyvie's branched reality... even though they pruned it) that's exactly the same, boisterous, jacked, tall, golden retriever of a person and they'd be into Casey randomly as Thor is prone to like nerds (Jane, Bruce).

[villieanizearchived]

i do wanna make it clear and say that my loki does NOT die at the beginning of infinity wars unless plotted before hand or going along with some sort of regular timeline type thing. loki survives, barely, by playing dead and is rescued along with thor. as much as loki loves to taunt, they know when they've been bested and will do anything they can to survive [ though in general it is HARD to kill loki. loki is a god and a frost-giant. not only that but i just find it very DIFFICULT to believe loki can be killed. they're like a cockroach, near invincible. ] even if it's playing dead, which they have done plenty of times. i also will not go into detail about the torture they endured at thanos' hands and the mindstone, so please do not inquire about it, it's not something i wish to explore in depth for my own sanity.
