I have to say, you've really impressed me, for several reasons. First, I can think of very few characters who have integrated themselves so thoroughly in such a short period of time in the two years I've been a part of Luceti. It can be hard to find your footing sometimes--hell, it took me something like half a year--especially when you play a villain character. So kudos to you for that!
I also am impressed by and appreciate the amount of thought you're putting into Loki's character here; your responses above are a good example of that and are also reassuring concerning a couple of small questions I had about the direction of his character. To be honest, while I was excited when I saw Loki's name turn up last cycle, there was also a part of me that was kind of leery (I spend a lot of time on tumblr--no further explanation needed, I trust :P). But you've more than set my fears to rest, particularly with your...well, multimedia approach to playing him to fill in the gaps that the MCU has left.
And, what really impresses me is how well you're getting across Loki's charisma. That is a hell of a difficult thing to do; I've played a supposedly charismatic character before, and I know I didn't do half as well as you are right now. I mean, I frequently have to stop and remind myself that this guy is a rotten bastard when reading his threads, and I have a ton more information than most of the characters in Luceti!
I only have one tiny nitpick, and this is just a personal thing, so feel perfectly free to disregard it. Basically, I find it jarring when his default icon shows up in threads when it's not really appropriate, like when he was having his memory loss problems--I'm assuming it's from when you're phone tagging? I know it's a lot more convenient, but it also really throws me out of the moment and makes it more difficult for me to know how to respond. Also, I'm shallow and enjoy looking at all the pretty faces he makes. :P
But yeah, in summary, you're doing such a terrific job that I feel like I'm positively throwing Grune at a character I would normally keep her a million miles away from (I get stressed easily) because you make him so damn interesting. Thank you for being awesome. ♥
