So I was going to work on cosplay stuff instead of writing today but I woke up with a miserable cold and didn’t feel like getting off the couch so here’s this! These tropes should have wound up with something light and cute but this is me we’re talking about.
not a date + everybody knows/mistaken for couple
Reunion (human AU)
OK, now I really want to know how this turns out. I mean, I’ve sort of worked out an ending in my head, but I’m curious as to how you envisioned things turning out.
I often see what I call the “Can’t say ‘I love you’” trope applied to Loki in Thorki fics. This confuses me. Loki’s said “I love you” to Thor in canon, and told others he loves Thor.
It’s actually Thor that’s never said the words “I love you”. I headcanon he can’t, not because the commitment is too great (as is most often the case when a character can’t say “I love you”), but because the sentiment is not enough. The words “I love you” get used by so many others, often carelessly. They do not begin to describe how Thor feels.
I admit I’m guilty of this, and I think it’s a matter of over-identifying with Loki. I have a lot of trouble saying “I love you” even to family members. But of course you’re right that Loki doesn’t have this problem in canon.
I do think I characterize Thor in a way similar to what you describe. He has all these worshipful thoughts about Loki but he feels like he can’t say them out loud because Loki would laugh at him.
