Story behind your username? :)

My headcanon for an AU where Loki grows up on Jötunheimr, is that he'd be more of a scholar than a warrior.

pertaining to minorities and whatnots—in the marvel cinematic universe, each of the nine realms in the first two thor movies (this discounts muspellheim, nidavellir, helheim/niflheim, alfheim, & midgard) are based after a specific cultural area on earth.

asgard is mainly european.

vanaheim is eurasian-based (lots of spices, wrapped clothes, etc)

svartalfheim is mainly unknown, but from what i inferred takes closely after some native american-like customs. (headdresses, lots of leather clothes, ornaments/plaits in hair, etc)

jötunheim (from what i’ve gathered) is mainly based on some variation of african cultures (tattoo-like body marks, little clothes, etc)

conclusion: loki can technically be called a POC, especially considering how he was indoctrinated with the ideas of the jötuns (poc) being ruthless beasts, monsters, uncivilized creatures, etc. he was ultimately adopted by a predominantly white/european family as a child of color.

he’s also played by a white person, which brings up the makeup transformation he has to have to look blue and if that could be considered black face here outside the cinematic universe loki is from

i could write a whole ass paper on this shit and how much disney is stagnant in ye olde mindsets of racism, homophobia, etc

i also feel weird talking about this as a young, inexperienced/uneducated, white individual with very few poc friends/acquaintances

#please correct me if i’m wrong #i was thinking ab this a few nights ago and couldn’t get it out of my head #if someone did an analysis on the jötuns and how their culture presents itself as something close to african ppl’s cultures #i’d read the shit outta that #poc character? #loki laufeyson #racism #thoughts #cultures around the world #african #asian #european #native american #mcu #marvel cinematic universe

“Loki…. Are you awake? He’s not here.”

(Maybe the slave AU we had a while back if you want?)

The Jötun, of course, was awake. He'd learned not to sleep too deeply, because his master loved to catch him off guard. He wasn't here only for labour, he was here for entertainment as well, and when it came to him, his master brought out the worst of himself to have fun.

So where he was lying on the ground, against the wall in the corner, curled up to make himself unnoticable - which was a vain wish, considering he was two meters tall and blue skinned -, he cracked his eyes open and looked up at her. He looked miserable as he dragged himself to kneel, the skin on his knees scraped, bruised and bleeding as he lowered his forehead on the ground for her. Despite the fact she never hit him, he would remain completely submissive; the twenty lashes he had received that evening with the bullwhip were still visible on his back, deep, purple welts, bruises and at some points, wounds that stopped bleeding by now.

"I am awake, Mistress", he whispered, breathless, "how may I serve you?"

jötun loki art (ones that don't come across as fetishy, at least) where the artist has clearly put a lot of thought into their version of jötunheim's culture is my FAVORITE. i love seeing the elaborate fashion and how it differs from what we know asgard's to be. i love it so much i'm going feral scrolling through art etc etc

that's it for jötun design party! i had so much fun seeing everyone's designs. the most difficult part was picking the winners, but i got there in the end! here are the winners, why i picked them, and the prizes they won!

as i will not be using this account anymore, i'll leave this as the pinned post and link to This Post as well as the #orientalism search for anyone who may stumble upon this blog in the future ❄️

Jötun Design Party Winners

First Place

Prize: full-body drawing of a character (original or otherwise) of their choice. I have your discord, and will contact you when I have the time to start and complete your drawing!

@therese-lokidottir

elegant and cohesive, it's clear that a lot of thought was put into the world and culture of jötunheim. every design is distinct and filled with personality while still maintaining a singular aesthetic. looking at these designs together, it's easy to imagine how the characters might interact with each other and their vibrant world.

Second Place

Prize: half-body drawing of a character (original or otherwise) of their choice. Please message this tumblr with your preferred method of communication (Discord, Instagram, or Tumblr itself) and I will contact you when I have the time to start and complete your drawing!

@ak800

looking at this design, it's easy to tell how much love, time, and effort was put into it. with elements that mirror loki's canon moteifs altered in ways that feel cozy, it's undeniable that there was a lot of thought put into the jötnar as a people. they mirror asgard in a way that directly contrasts the claims we see the aesir make of them, while still feeling like a separate and distinct culture with their personalized magic, unique horns, and clear social dynamics

Third Place

Prize: bust-shot drawing of a character (original or otherwise) of their choice. Please message this tumblr with your preferred method of communication (Discord, Instagram, or Tumblr itself) and I will contact you when I have the time to start and complete your drawing!

@corvusartchronicles

while deceptively simple, this design is thoughtful and paints a very different picture of jötunheim than we are used to seeing in canon. this design implies a combination of mythologies, which we are very used to in marvel, while giving love and thought to a vivid world of religion which is not often given the same respect as norse or greek mythology. protected from the weather in a way that would not make a temperature-sensitive frost giant overheat, loki's design is full of love for both fantasy, and the very real people who often inspire it 💞

it means the world to me that as many people participated as they did and i really hope that this contest helped make this fandom a more inclusive space in some way

picking the winners for this was SO DIFFICULT. so under the cut, i have also enthused about some of the submitted designs because i wanted to be able to share my thoughts on more of them. i'm so sorry that i wasn't able to get to everyone!!

treacheroustrickster

all of those shades of green? i am in love

red tichel!!! was this a callback to loki's red hair in mythology? I AM IN LOVE EITHER WAY!!!

i know it's based on a canon design and russian ashkenazi fashion but the hair jewelry just looks so in-place here. if it was cold enough outside that i needed to layer my clothes then i too would prefer to wear my metals in my hair where it wouldn't feel cold against my skin

newsted

this one specifically is just so ROYAL to me. far more than most of the entries! it has my heart

the riding pants >>>

the fingerless gloves >>>>

this design, with the minimal layers of clothing mixed with the warm cloak, makes me feel like it's designed to keep loki protected from the cold winds that comes with riding horses at high speeds in the winter

vvviktor

NY FRIEND I LOVE THE DETAILS

the embroidery on the sleeves

and the idea of loki in bronze instead of gold is one that i adore. i associate gold so heavily with asgard AND with loki that whenever i try to design jötun lokis, it's incredibly difficult to pick whether to use gold or not. bronze is the PERFECT solution to this

also shut up the feet literally are not bad

du-ed

HOOVES!!!!!!

okay cuteness aggression aside i think this is such a smart idea for the jötnar.

it helps with that balance of showing them in minimal clothing to get across their lack of sensitivity to the cold while also actually protecting them from the snow they are likely at least knee-deep in half the time

like yes. just yes

of COURSE they would look like this it just makes sense to me

imreaallyasorry

look at this. JUST LOOK AT IT. what more do i need to say

its perfect. i will be following you on my new account

this is the cutest thing i've seen in my entire life

also the staff/scepter is so cool, it's gorgeous, that's MY moon queen and magic theatre

unityrain24

this one is SO COOL, it's my absolute favorite out of the designs you submitted.

it looks so warm and sleek, and the idea that travel wear is so different from everyday wear makes me wonder just how harsh the conditions on the planet are.

i'm an absolute sucker for designs that are distinctly alien like this and it has my heart i love it so so much
