Oh no! The latest chapter was so sad it made me cry! They both know nothing can ever come of them, yet they are definitely in love - even though Loki propably doesn't know how love feels like, even though it feels exactly like that you care and want someone so much that even the thought of not being with them hurts. I think he's slowly getting the hang of it, even though for now the only solution he sees is to end the whole thing. I just can not describe in any words how much I love this story!
Oh, but that was the point! But anyway, yeah. I think it’s safe to say that Loki is in love with Stjarna, but he either cannot recognize it yet or he purposefully refuses to acknowledge it. The thought of giving a part of himself, in a sense, to another person terrifies him. But thank you so much for reading, I am so happy you like it! :D
