I've always thought the Aesir were pretty damn prudish when it came to this sort of stuff - well, more prudish than the Vanir, for sure. Like, in my heacanons they're the kind of people who have any sort of sexual escapades but try too keep it as a dirty little secret and always act all judging and holier-than-thou towards whoever does the same more openly. The only ones I can think of who would probably be more open and relaxed are Thor and Sif. I really like the idea of Thor adknowledging both Modi and Magni and Ullr.
The Lokasenna is a masterpiece, and Lokasenna!Loki is best Loki - so bitchy and sassy and "dude I'm drunk I don't give a fuck". <3 Balder is like the most useless character in the Eddas. I swear, reading the story of his death with everybody mourning him like he was their BFF for the first time was a little like watching that episode of Torchwood with the alien who modifies everybody's memories and pretends to have just been there all along. XD
Honey, I may be the one who bitches about mythological accuracy all the time, but rest assured that I have my guilty pleasures too. XD *cough* Xena, Hercules, the first two seasons of Merlin, Camelot, The Allmighty Johnsons ... *cough* And I can read about and appreciate Marvel!Loki as a character, even if he'll never be Loki to me - not in the way Runemarks!Loki and Valhalla!Loki are still Loki to me. Basically, who am I to judge fannish love? ;) <3
