Sometimes the compulsion just hits regardless of place.

Something tells me Loki would be into aerial arts.

A cinnamon roll? THIS squiggly bastard? Sir, I think not.

Loki: *makes me overcome with religious love and ecstasy at work*

Me: *overwhelmed with my head lagging closer to the desk* “Bitch I am trying work, I have people I have to call I can barely speak you’ve overwhelmed me so.

Loki: *laughing and cooing and calling me a little rabbit, doing it even more* “you haven’t been paying me enough attention little rabbit, and during my month too. Was that lesson I gave you the other day not enough?”

If he makes me go through one of those at work I’m. Throttle. Throttle them.

6. Dagaz- Breakthrough, Revelation: Describe a lesson that Loki has taught you.

Throughout this admittedly almost short partnership Loki has already taught me so much. One of the largest lessons though I think was to overcome my fear. Not to ignore my fear and not feel at all, but to feel it fully and then overcome it. I could be afraid all I wanted but I could not let it leave me stagnant.

I could second guess, and wonder and question but not forever. At one point or another, I would have to make a choice. And Loki also did their best to teach me to live with whatever choice it was that I made. That is a lesson still in progress but I have noticed that I have gotten better with accepting the consequences of my actions, with understanding that my choices are my own for better or worse. I have learned and am still learning not to agonize over what should or could have been, because I had already chosen what happened.

I need to focus more on the here and now. Not the past where I beat myself up over past mistakes. And not far flung into the future where I can pretend everything is okay without actually doing anything about it. Mindfulness in the here and now, and understanding my wants and needs in the here and now. That’s what Loki is teaching me.

3. Kenaz- Creation, Fire of Renewal, Loki: Describe Loki as you have come to know Them.

Share a photo or describe something you’ve made as an offering to Loki.

The Loki that I have come to know and love is a brightly burning flame. An all-encompassing presence that, for better or worse, takes up my full attention when I am not careful and at least half when I am.

They are my bright burning love, the flame of rebellion, and the spark in my heart that gives me strength when I feel as if there is nothing else left. They are my comfort when I find I have none other, one that stokes the flames of righteous anger and someone who tries to build me up not to need the thoughts of others influencing me (a horrid battle that I fight and one they only help me find weapons for but never take part in themselves).

They are a trickster, yes, and one that at times makes even me uncomfortable with how they push and prod at society’s unspoken rules. But they are someone who I trust and who I love, but I am not afraid to turn and yell right back at them if need be or if they push me farther than I believe I am ready.

They are someone kind, someone sharp around the edges but oh so sweet when you get close. They are easily amused, happy with madness, and how mortals react and engage with their world and others around them. Endlessly curious, endlessly pushing others to express themselves truly and fully they never want you to ever lie to yourself.

They are a tall slim presence, burning bright red hair (or sometimes a burnished copper brown), and a smile full of sharp canines framed by those ever-present scars. Their eyes shine with an ever-present gold hue, honey gold and warm where his smile is not. In their arms, I feel safe, I feel powerful, and I know love and duty within them. I am no God-spouse (nor do I think I will ever be), but part of my heart belongs firmly to Loki, sure enough. That singular oath made within me is enough for me and I feel more than enough for them as well. They are a wolf at my back, a cackling fox, and a sharp-beaked crow guiding me to look ahead to find my own bath but never forcing me along. A suggestion, a nudge, and a whisper, but never a command.

As for offerings, I have come to offer them liquor quite a lot. I offer them my sexual gratification many times, my emotional experiences at others. I also try to share food from my plate (when I remember).

Tumblr owes me $10 for every absurd shitpost that crosses my dash that results in Loki shenanigans.
