There’s only a RED DOMINO MASK fitted cover his eyes perfectly — the wind blowing his hair in multiple directions. Jason lifts a gloved hand to push the strands of white out of his face, the brunette sections damp with sweat from all of the CHASING done tonight. While his helmet was on top of his dresser back home — the red BAT is clearly visible on his chest for both those that would recognize it AND the new faces to him who wouldn’t.
His other hand held what resembles a GUN, lifting it to point it at his target — a CRIMINAL running in the opposite direction. Jason almost pulls the trigger, knowing that his accuracy was nearly perfect to hit wherever he WANTED to. It wasn’t nearly as FUN from this distance. He drops his arm, sliding the M1911 back into it’s holster.
“LUCKY bastard — I’m feeling nice today.” Jason laughs a moment, and then turns to look at who was watching. “He didn’t know anything anyway.”
some may call curiosity a flaw, but loki would dare to disagree. if his curiosity were to get him killed, so be it. ( but also not -- he doesn’t actually want, or plan on, dying today. ) “feeling nice? well, that’s boring.” loki replies, arms crossed over his chest as he looks over at the other. not that loki endorsed murder -- no, it was more like he was just bored and wanted something entertaining to happen. “what’re you trying to find out, anyway? or is it top secret ?” he asks, his tone mocking when he asks whether it was secret. he probably shouldn’t be low-key ( ha ha ha, ) provoking the guy with a gun, but oh well. “or are you just going to stare broodingly off into the distance? you seem like the type. perhaps it runs in the family.”
“Mhm…” Sunglasses obscuring blue eyes, red hair flowing loose over her shoulder, Pepper nodded and smiled politely. The man sitting across from her was a blind date her younger sister had set her up on, in a crowded outdoor cafe. At least the coffee was good, she thought. She sighed softly. “Listen – ” Oh god, she’d forgotten his name. “I have to be honest with you. You don’t really have a chance…” She waved her hand vaguely to indicate herself. “Here. Thank you for the coffee. But this isn’t gonna happen.”
It wasn’t until after he’d huffed, tossed money onto the table (as if she needed him to pay), and stalked off that she realized someone had been listening. She shrugged. “It’s better that he know now,” she said diplomatically. “I’m sure he has better things to do with his day than sit here with someone who isn’t interested, don’t you think?” She certainly did.
loki had a habit of letting their curiousity get the better of them. curiosity killed the cat, they think. or maybe the trickster. they chuckle at the thought. no, they were determined even more now to make themselves hard to kill. they’d been reborn once, but they doubted they’d be granted that a second time. for a split second they think ‘well maybe this is a second chance to get into valhalla, ’ before scoffing at the very idea of that. yeah, right. but thinking of the grim topic of where one will go after death isn’t something that people typically enjoy speaking or thinking about, so they push it out of their head as they turn their attention to the woman speaking, shrugging their shoulders. “my props go to you, if anything, for choosing not to lead him on. can’t say i would’ve done the same,” they smirk, a mischievous glint in their eyes. “perhaps it’s a little mean, but people are just... so fun to mess with.”
For some odd reason Earth never stopped being so… odd. Sure, she’d been living here for nearly 6 years, but it didn’t make any of the day to day things any more normal, any less weird. And sure, she’d voluntarily left Asgard, but that didn’t mean that she didn’t miss the bigglesnipes, or the warriors. Here things were beautiful and calm in a way that Asgard really hadn’t been for thousands, if not millions, of years, but they were also strange, broken down, and dirty in a way that Asgard, nor Sakaar, hadn’t been.
Valk’s hand easily wrapped around the bottle in her hand, this was another thing about Earth she still didn’t get, their alcohol. It was both better, and worse than what she was used to. She took a sip of the odd drink she couldn’t really remember the name of, and shivered a bit at the vinegar-y downtake of it. Well, alcohol was alcohol.
“What do you want? I’m not here to talk.” She sighed to the newcomer.
there wouldn’t be a day that went by where loki didn’t miss asgard. not that she’d admit it to anyone, though. still, she could already hear all-father’s voice in her head -- ‘asgard is a people, not a place ’. but nonetheless, the destroyed former home held sentimental value to her. she’d grown up there, after all. she was aware of new asgard, but had yet to actually go there. walking into a bar, loki takes a seat without realizing who she’d sat next to, ordering a glass of wine. it was the drink she was partial to, next to whiskey. just depended on how she felt, really. it wasn’t like midgardian alcohol had much of an effect on her anyway. hearing the other speak, loki glanced over at her before she shrugged her shoulders. “and you assume that i am?” she raised a brow, chuckling. “did you stop to consider that perhaps i am here for a drink, like you?” a pause. “nice to see you again as well.”
. ◞ ‧ * ❝ well ── that ain’t a nice thing to ask a lady you ghoul ! ❞ the words floated across the room ; a playful smile on her lips as jessica watched her new companion, intrigued by the almost indiscreet question. ❝ but i have been asked worst things so i guess it’s your lucky day ! what was it again ? ❞
if there was one thing that loki loved about midgard, it had to be their food. breakfast, in specific, would always take the first place prize in his books. puzzled, his brows knit together as he looks over at the woman across from him after she had spoken. “i asked,” he began, pausing for a moment -- likely for dramatic effect. “if you planned to finish that.” he repeated, gesturing to the bacon on her plate.
[ ezra miller / sofia black d'elia, 1000+, genderfluid, he/she/they ] - loki odinson ! you know, the anti-hero that goes by the god of mischief ? i heard they can ( shapeshift & wield magic ), and comes from the marvel universe.
so just as a ... note before we dive into all of This, i wanna explain my inspiration for how i’m explaining loki is back. essentially, i’m pulling influence from a comic plot that’s very similar to what i’ve decided on (i’ve just adjusted stuff to fit w/ the mcu stuff). but other than that, let’s dive in !
stats;
name: loki laufeyson / laufeydottir.
nickname(s): god(dess) of lies, god(dess) of stories, agent of asgard, ikol, prince(ss) of asgard, reindeer games (via tony stark), lackey (via valkyrie), liesmith, child of odin, child of laufey, loki of asgard – for starters; there are probably more
alias: the god/goddess of mischief.
aligment: anti-hero.
affiliation: generally speaking, loki’s affiliation is mainly with themselves, but occasionally thor and asgard as well.
birthdate & age: loki does not have an exact birthdate, but their age is, at the very least 1000+.
zodiac sign: seeing as loki does not have a birthdate, considering they were not born on earth, they don’t have a zodiac sign, however it would probably be scorpio. i’m a sucker for hc’ing zodiac signs.
species: loki is a frost giant, but calls themselves an asgardian.
gender: loki is genderfluid.
pronouns: loki’s pronouns depend on their form and mood. most commonly, loki will use ‘he/him’ pronouns in their masculine form, and ‘she/her’ pronouns in their feminine form, but they will occasionally use ‘they/them’ pronouns, regardless of what form they take.
romantic orientation: panromantic.
sexual orientation: pansexual.
history;
born to king laufey and his wife farbauti, loki was abandoned as a baby because they were considered to be small and weak for a frost giant
however, they were found by odin and thus adopted by king odin and queen frigga of asgard, raised alongside their adoptive brother thor, believing that they were as much their son as thor
overall, their childhood was good compared to what it would have been had they either been kept by their birth parents or died on jotunheim, even if they would later tell people otherwise (ex. telling thor they lived in his shadow – feelings of their own insecurity brought out by thanos’ manipulation)
they were taught to wield magic by his mother, frigga, as they lacked interest in fighting, partially due to their smaller stature
loki often played pranks on thor using the magic they were being taught, such as finding different ways to stab him or turn him into different animals, both as a child and into their adulthood
i won’t go into too much more detail about the events of the avengers & the thor movies bc i’m sure most people have seen em and knows all that goes on so ….. yes (plus i’m lazy)
which brings us to infinity war, where thanos kills loki after loki attempted to trick and stab him
headcanons;
however, while what they did leading up to their death may have seemed like a foolish thing to do, loki had actually laid plans well beforehand – after faking their death a few times and/or coming close to actually dying, they made sure there was a sort of fail safe in order to ensure that they would never truly die
so while they had no way of knowing when they would die, they at least knew that it was either a) possible or that b) they were going to die at some point i the future, which was exactly why they went to these extents to prevent that
to be exact, they took their name out of the book of hel, ensuring that if they were to die, it wouldn’t be permanent – that they would instead be reborn anew rather than actually dying, free from the weight of their past
this happened not long after their original death, but after the snap, where they were reincarnated into a younger body
but loki hasn’t been around for that long since their death -- roughly a year or so. they considered taking up an alias but ultimately decided ‘fuck it’ and have just been.... runnin’ around as themselves.
so loki has all memories of their last life, so they are very much still that loki, just in a new body
overall i hope i explained my way of bringing him back well so that it doesn't leave people confused but if you are confused feel free to lemme know and i can try to explain some things !!
this is 100%, completely unrelated to anything i’ve said above, but i need to add it: loki loves wicked. here’s a panel of their take on ‘the wizard and i’. i think it’s beautiful
