Genderfluid Loki from Frost
so one of the things I address in Frost is Loki’s shapeshifting, and I thought this conversation between him and Tony was worth sharing!
“So do you shift into anything besides a cat?” Tony chewed idly on a piece of grass as they walked through the gardens, Loki directing them away from the roses to show Tony more of the grounds, of the orchards and the river that ran through it.
“Of course.” Loki trailed his fingers through the leaves of an apple tree as they passed. “Anything at all. Any animal. Any gender.”
Tony tripped right over his feet, landing in an undignified sprawl on the cobblestone path.
“Are you alright?” Loki reached to help him up, but Tony just stared at his hand and then up at him.
“You said gender. You can shift between a man and a woman?”
“And the others.” Loki added with a little smile. “That intrigues you, does it?”
“The others?” Tony's eyebrows flew up. “Nope, my brain might explode if I think about that. But seriously? You are… gender fluid?”
“That is one way of saying it.” Loki grasped his wrist and pulled him to his feet. “Others might say non binary I suppose? My Jotunn form is male, and that is how I keep my glamour, but with being able to shift…my gender is not a… permanent characteristic, if I do not want it to be.”
“Oh.” Tony squeaked, and they kept walking. “So I might turn around one day and you won't be Loki, you could be...Loren?”
“With all the… coordinating parts.”
Then after several moments, Loki-- “Would you like to spend the night with… Loren sometime?”
Tony coughed hard, bending over to try and clear his lungs, the image of a female Loki enough to make him nearly pass out.
“That's shockingly tempting. Cant even tell you how much I am on board with that. But maybe you and I should be together before we bring... Loren... in.”
“Could be interesting.” Loki grinned wickedly. “If you were up to the challenge.”
“Trust me.” Tony was finally breathing again and sent Loki a look. “There is no issue with me being up to the challenge.”
