Yo does anyone want to see some concept art of Loki at the tender age of one year old?

Just kidding, of course you do.

#Babies are cute and all but I like the idea of the Jötnar being a bit weird looking like really little baby kittens #And then they get genuinely cute a bit later at around age 3 to 5 #Combine that with my more specific headcanon that Loki had a chubby phase as a wee lad and you get this rotund floppy fetus #mcfucking art #norse myth #norse mythology #loki #mythology #norse loki #myth loki #loki laufeyjarson #jötunn #Art #sketch #concept art

The Surtr Explodes AU being a modern AU comes with the wonderful possibility of those guys who do interviews with strangers on the streets doing an interview with the Æsir and getting their opinions on random bullshit.

Unfortunately I do think a lot of the questions would just be “What do you think about (insert thing from Marvel that does not apply to them at all)?” or “Why do you believe (insert thing that a Marvel character said that does not accurately reflect them or their beliefs)?” but in the rare instances where they don’t get recognized by the interviewers until the video’s already posted, I think the questions and answers would be very funny.

On the other hand, I do think some of them would come up with pretty funny clapbacks to the more insulting, often Marvel or N*il Gaiman-related questions, especially after being asked the same pop culture related questions a thousand times.

Or they just never leave the house again without a human disguise. They could always do that instead.

#I’d imagine that Loki’s had the entire plot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe explained to him multiple times (against his will)#so I don’t think that he would take too kindly to humans even MENTIONING Marvel #You say the word “tesseract” and his eyes glaze over even if you’re talking about something different like A Wrinkle in Time or mathematics #norse mythology #norse myth #norse gods #mythology

For someone who's been obsessed with different mythologies since I was a kid, I wasn't aware that Loki and Odysseus are considered the same person????

Which brings me to

Chapter 18: To the Fooling of Gylfe

The asas now sat down to talk, and held their counsel, and remembered all the tales that were told to Gylfe. They gave the very same names that had been named before to the men and places that were there. This they did for the reason that, when a long time has elapsed, men should not doubt that those asas of whom these tales were now told and those to whom the same names were given were all identical. There was one who is called Thor, and he is Asa−Thor, the old. He is Oku−Thor, and to him are ascribed the great deeds done by Hektor in Troy. But men think that the Turks have told of Ulysses, and have called him Loke, for the Turks were the greatest enemies.

“Odysseus”, adjusting his fake beard to hide the stitches on his lips: …no reason.

#Prev I am fully aware of this but I am also not immune to The Funny #Maybe I should have added a little note that said I know why Sturluson tried to make them all Trojans #I just wanted to make a joke

#Oh my GOD.#This recontextualizes a LOT about the Iliad and the Odyssey.#This is really fucking funny. Thank you OP.#norse myth #greek myth #greek myth art #greek mythology #greek myth fandom #greek myth memes #norse mythology #norse gods #loki #mythology #classical mythology #the odyssey #Odysseus

Religion’s a lot more complicated in my worldbuilding than just “humans worship gods” and it’s more like a powerscaling tier list. Because the Æsir are a functioning society just as much as they are gods to the humans, they’re equally prone to worshipping things they cannot control. For the Æsir, it’s fate, and the ones who control THAT are the Norns. Humans worship the gods, and the gods worship the Norns.

#This idea is loosely based around what Fáfnir said about the Norns before he died and how everyone was happy until the Norns showed up #It’s not that they just appeared out of nowhere though. It’s that the Æsir became their CULT.#Whenever I post about my version of the Æsir I’m doing so in the context that they’re all a bunch of crazy fucking Viking Calvinists

Fuck it, blocking a bunch of Marvel fans on this sideblog specifically. It’s nothing personal, they just keep appropriating my posts for their own superhero movie fandom and it’s getting on my nerves. Either engage with the fandom you’re actually reblogging from or just go away.

What’s making this whole purging thing really easy is that they all have really obvious fandom usernames like “loki-the-beautiful-and-sexy” or “touchmygloriouspurpose69” so they stick out like a sore thumb.

#For whatever reason it’s SPECIFICALLY the Loki fangirls who have been trying to steal from my fandom cookie jar #Be more creative guys. Or you’ll get hit by my big hammer.

#We can still be civil and polite on my main blog but you’re not allowed to go rifling through my Norse stuff anymore.#At least not unless you’re chill and you’re willing to play with my toys instead of forcing me to play with yours.#You can stay if you’re also a myth fan though. This is SPECIFICALLY for the Marvel-only fans.

STOP PUTTING EGREGORE IN YOUR WORLDBUILDING

GODS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FULLY DEPENDENT ON HUMANS

YEARS OF STORYTELLING yet NO NARRATIVE USE FOUND for making your gods DIE WHEN PEOPLE FORGET ABOUT THEM

Wanted to kill your gods anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "MISTLETOE"

"Yes please give me GODS THAT DON’T HAVE ANY REAL POWERS BEYOND WHATEVER THE HUMANS DECIDE THEY CAN DO. Please give me HUMANS THAT CAN SPAWN AND INFLUENCE MAGICAL CREATURES WITH THEIR MIND POWERS" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what mythology writers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the pop culture & TVTropes we built for them (These are REAL adaptations, done by REAL writers):

?????

???????

?????????????????

"Hello I would like magical psychic humans and shitass hallucination deities please"

They have played us for absolute fools.

Worst thing about actually enjoying Loki’s character the way he is in the myths is that people will tell me about this “really great” adaptation of Norse mythology with a “myth accurate” Loki and then I’ll check it out and get flashbanged by some bullshit like this.

#Convinced that none of you actually like Loki from Norse myth. You just like generic villains and you want to pretend that Loki is one.#Liking certain character archetypes isn’t inherently bad or wrong but myth Loki just isn’t the character you want him to be #It’s a Cartman with pronouns situation but a lot of you get really weirdly offended when you’re forced to confront that.#Anyways. Loki isn’t the character you want him to be. And that’s okay. There are other Norse gods who can be that for you.#Just not one of the few Norse gods who has a very developed and well established personality formed by important cultural context.

I don’t give a fuck about pitting different world mythologies against each other like sports teams because it’s banal and stupid Riordanverse type bullshit, but I DO like the idea that different pantheons would have a lot of cultural differences between each other and certain traditions and biases that cause conflict.

#The best example I can think of is Greek vs Norse #The Greek pantheon is more of the classical metaphysical and “whimsical” pantheon where everything is an allegory or a metaphor #While the Æsir all have the defining characteristic of being made of flesh and blood instead of magical energy #and having real lives and jobs outside of their relationship to humans (which aren’t even the only “civilized” functional society)#To the Olympians the Æsir would look like regular mortals and the Æsir would in turn mistake them for vættir or poltergeists or something #The general sentiment of “That’s not a fucking god. That’s some other bullshit.” would likely drive a wedge between them

Ancient norseman coming up with the idea for Sleipnir: Hey, so what if we made a creature that was just fucking IMPOSSIBLE to draw?
