#his sass will only be understood by 2% of people and it'll be hours later

[worstloki]

Hey. I was wondering, how do you think Loki would be in a school setting? I used to imagine he would be class clown who's lowkey super clever and aces every test. But the more I delve in to meta, I think he'd actually be a quiet student who doesn't ever put their hand up to answer questions & doesn't ever want to do group projects (I mean, who does), & just keeps to himself at the back of the class, avoids interaction with students and teachers, but is super smart. I dunno I just really wanna talk about it with someone, any takes on headcanon student Loki?

okay so the thing here is that not only is Loki outspoken in the comics but from his interactions in Thor 1 we know that despite the mocking comments Loki still makes suggestions and comments when he wants to get things across. Keep in mind that this is after a thousand years, despite the scene at the beginning of the film where Loki Thor and Odin are in the vault and Loki asks “do the frost giants still live” and his question gets ignored. as a child. 

All interpretations are valid of course, but I’m currently thinking he’d be the one kid that always asks the “but why?” and “so basically...” questions and throws humour that will definitely go over most people’s heads in while doing it. 

Maybe one day he’ll sit at the back and read a book because he already knows everything the teacher can teach him, and the next he’ll be in the middle row asking for clarification and debunking things by summarizing an entire lesson in 1 sentence and then dragging the teacher onto a tangent which distracts the entire class and gets them discussing the logistics of a dragon airport or something because even when everyone who isn’t the teacher tells him to shut his mouth he doesn’t listen and being ignored has virtually no effect on him. 

#think the closest MCU comparison would be a combination of MJ and Peter? #like... #if he has something to say he'll say it but he'll make sure he knows what he's talking about so they're not dumb questions to laugh at #loki's been getting shut up since he was 12ish and he never listened if 'silvertongue' as a nickname to make fun of is any indication #he's that person who will make sure he's in his right to ask a question and then he'll rapid fire with them #if he's in a situation where it would be inappropriate he'd keep his mouth shut obviously #he's not RUDE and genuinely WANTS TO LEARN if there's anything he can #his sass will only be understood by 2% of people and it'll be hours later #most likely sif who will go ''oooohh you b*st*rd'' at a pun from hours ago and throw a book at him #a book that loki would smile while catching and turn around to read #maybe the students would hate him #but also the conversations are INTERESTING #and going off-topic is always fun #he's... tolerated #not that you'd be able to tell by looking at him #he acts like everything is fine #if the teacher tells him to be quiet he WILL though #it's like... teachers pet if they were super curious about how everything in the world works
