Loki: [twirling his mustache] Interesting.
Sigyn: Did you just magically grow a mustache so you could twirl it?
Loki: Yes. Why are you surprised?
Sigyn: [with a sigh] Really, I'm not.

For the current version of my Logyn YA story, I decided to give Sigyn a redesign. Here in the picture she is shortly before the events of the book.
While many interpretations of Loki’s wife show as either a valkyrie or a princess, in my version Sigyn is the daughter of minor Aesir god (an OC of mine) and human witch. They lived happily deep in the Midgardian forest until Sigyn’s mother passed away and her dad disappeared, leaving the young and very shy demigoddess all on her own.

So sorry for being gone so long, i kinda disappeared into the struggles of school and work this year (survived) and honestly for the summer i completely shut my brain off and just rotted in my bed ( (it was amazing) don’t recommend though if you value having a brain )
The IMPACT and ART of Into The Spider-verse then got me going again but its been slow. but honestly the moment i begin to draw its like my life goes back into balance with everything.
I still love Logyn, wish i would have practiced anatomy more though during the summer because Ive been longing to make more action filled , fluent, character driven art with Loki and Sigyn, i feel like i make them so stale also i barely make backgrounds😭
Also there so many years old artworks that i either still have not completed and honestly should because my iPads storage cant take it anymore 💀

Because it wasn’t enough that the Logyn fandom come me back into writing fanfiction, now it has me commissioning artwork from people.
Anyways here is this absolute amazing plushies of Sigyn and Loki done by the fabulous @lauraniko that I got done. Just look at how cute they are! Now I just need a pair of them in real life and all will be well.

My Musings on Sigyn
So yeah, y’all know my feelings on Sylvie vs Sigyn. I don’t talk about Sigyn much, though. Stupid me.
Artwork not mine, origin: https://berloga-workshop.com/blog/95-sigyn.html
She really gets the short end of the myth from the get-go, doesn’t she? All the Poet Edda says with regards to her is that she stayed faithfully by Loki, protecting him from pain as much as she was capable, using her bowl to catch snake venom and preventing it from touching her husbands’ face, thus tormenting him. She is far from Loki’s only lover, but she’s the only one who goes down to Hel to endure his suffering with him until Ragnarok.
Why don’t we call that what it is: badass?
The Poet Edda doesn’t really say anything about the nature of Logyn, other than Sigyn followed Loki into his punishment of her own volition. I think more people are tempted to write off Sigyn as weak based on the fact that there are so many blanks to fill in with regard to her personality and history that its just easier to write her off as a 50s Housewife trope. I don’t really believe it’s fair to assume Sigyn went to the underworld because she was abused to the point of submission. For all we know, Loki would’ve done the same thing for her. For all we know, there are lost texts that are love poems between the two.
A lot of the discourse about Loki being ‘abusive’ is not from the original myths. In fact, it didn’t really come about until Marvel introduced her character in the comics, where their relationship gets toxic.
Although they did share a love for headgear that gets great radio reception...
Now, I haven’t read all the comics, but it makes me a little afraid on what the MCU might do to Sigyn if they ever decided to bring her in properly one day (if they haven’t already by absolutely ruining it all by just making Sylvie her stand-in). MCU would probably do one of two things to her:
1: The more likely thing is making her entire appearance an Easter Egg somewhere in the LOKI series.
2: They overcompensate for the comics by turning her into a GirlBossTM.
Now, I’m 150% feminist and all for more assertive, active heroines, but I’m SOOOO SICK OF GIRLBOSSTM. It’s gotten to the point where its a trope that lampoons itself without self-awareness. There’s a right way to do it (I usually refer to films like Ever After for positive examples) and a wrong way to do it (Camila Cabello’s Cinderella did it so so so badly, guys, it hurt my soul).
I’ll admit I kinda did this myself in my fanfic All the Strange Creatures, but it’s to a bigger purpose. I’ve given her weaponry and a destiny and all that jazz. And I am making sure the Sigyn of my story isn’t TOO awesome either, because that’s when most writers lose me. “Too awesome” can be just as bad and annoying as “too weak.”
So, unless they do the cool thing and add a twist that Mobius is Sigyn (which I honestly wouldn’t hate, and goddamn it would make so much sense), I’m not sure how I feel about Sigyn ever entering the MCU.
What do you all think? Should Sigyn be introduced to the MCU? Or will they fuck it up too much for it to be worthwhile?
This post is what inspired my own thoughts. Check it out.

Portraits of Sigyn
Some of few Sigyn AI generated portaits I've made that I really like. I think 1st and 3rd capture perfectly the look of an average teenager I'm going for in my Wattpad Logyn story, while the 4th makes for a good cover. Sadly, generating Loki I'm aiming for is much harder.
Which one do you like?

Loki and Sigyn Nordic Mythos concept design
in a way i was trying to give them a “disney” type of look
but this is an old constructed piece that i had to rework A LOT & didn’t have enough layers to truly get a complete picture out so i’m thinking about maybe re-doing this one a bit with a different size canvas next time
again i want to give credit where credit is due bc the look of this norse loki is based on @muirin007 design
