Description
Loki spake:"They say that with spells
in Samsey once
Like witches with charms didst thou work;
And in witch's guise
among men didst thou go;
Unmanly thy soul must seem."

I love how he's basically just calling Odin a slut.

He isn't, he's deriding Óðinn for his practise of Séiðr, which was considered the province of women. He's essentially calling Óðinn a hypocrite for practising something which he derides others for

I was literally coming back to this picture because I JUST read about this and finally understood. But, by practicing Seidr, Odin was, basically, a slut, because Seidr was also very sexual.

What a great design for them! I love their outfits, and Loki's hair. Your style is very distinct and beautiful.

Oh! Loki got Odin good! Then again, he has no room to talk. Spending all his time using magic to cause mischief and turning himself into a woman and baring two sons.

Þeir segja að með galdra
í Samsey einu sinni
Eins nornir með heillar hefir þú vinna;
Og í búningi nornarinnar
meðal karla hefir þú farið;
Lítilmannlegt sál þína verður að virðast
this is Icelandic

As always, your work is exceptional, but the character of Loki is a masterpiece.

This being the first picture of yours that I saw, my immediate thought was: the Trickster and the All-Father with Huginn and Muninn. I see now that you stylize Loki in that way (and he looks great, imho), and I still think the other figure is Odinn, so I guess I answered my own question
