I read this at the jewelry store between handing off watches and taking in rings that had cracked along their sizings, today and yesterday.
It confirmed that Loki is a great Trickster and the extreme I can't love whole heartedly. He's the kind of guy I had painful crushes on as a youth*--very hot, very clever, and not so nice.

Great to read about. though ... and Odd is my man.


*I'm not wiser now. It's just that niceness has gotten much hotter, and meanness more revolting.
