IMPORTANT CHARACTER INFORMATION TO NOTE AND SHARE (this could be important headcanons for initial plotting, mini bios etc, supporting docs etc):
originally growing up in norway, loki inevitably spent his life on the move. distant from his adoptive family with tension high with his adoptive father, loki never really settles back at 'home' again after moving away after his 21st birthday.
loki had been living stateside for about a year before the virus broke out and ended up stuck there, alone having very quickly got out of new york city before the bridges were blown.
he travelled around for a while after that, mostly surviving alone, sometimes with smaller groups of vicious people in order to survive, picking up plenty of his own bad habits along the way. whatever it took to survive, ya know? and he found that actually, he was pretty quick with a blade. and even better at stealth.
which is what, eventually, brought him to the kingdom and made him rise up quickly as a member of their defence force.
it was a safe place to rest his head. and, to be fair, he thought the king was pretty cool. dramatic as fuck, something loki related to.
that was, until he found out about the saviors. till he started looking at the king and the kingdom differently. it didn't feel all that strong anymore. it didn't feel like the kind of place where he could actually remain safe, survive and feel strong.
so soon enough, he wormed his way into the saviors. ever the talented talker, he surprisingly (or, really, not that surprisingly at all) he got along decently with negan and his general… everything.
it worked out. for a long while, it made sense. ally with the strongest and remain that way yourself. yeah, he had to continue to do some rather dark and horrible things. but… it was the end times, right? the idea of 'humanity' wasn't exactly all that clear anymore.
the only thing that caused loki to change again really, was when a while later, loki was there and saw what happened to glenn and abraham. it wasn't his place to question it, of course. he wasn't stupid. even if he didn't agree with what he saw, it wasn't like he could voice it. but… when the time came. when things finally looked set to change… that was when loki dipped.
a few risky moves, some information leaked, and loki got out. it took a while of course, for his old friends in the kingdom to trust him again. but, when he fought side by side with them, nearly dying twice in the process, things started to work out.
even more so when he later helped with the wave of problems the whisperers brought. however, it was the ending of that war and in the aftermath of all the suffering and loss that loki just… doesn't feel like he can stay with everyone. he cares about them all dearly, but he doesn't think staying will help. he wants to go and explore, see if he can find something more out there. maybe even better things to bring back for the groups later.
which, in fairness, he does find. he goes off and reconnects with elijah, meets clarke and co and their coalition in the aftermath of mount weather stuff. only to have come back and united up with the new commonwealth in january. ONE SONG THAT HAS YOUR CHARACTER VIBES:
bad liar by imagine dragons.
