Loki's reaction to Frigga was one of the best parts of Thor 2.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I have a really hard time imaging Loki falling in love, but if it should happen... well I honestly can't picture the relationship. But I can picture him with a daughter, being quite tender when she is little (and not quite useless when she is older, but not exactly wise, either). And just because the universe loves to screw around with people that way, she'd probably have native sensibilities more like Thor's than Loki's and it would mess him up badly in how to relate.

Some of the best fic out there is Loki and his kids and his reactions when people threaten his kids.

He certainly wouldn't be boring as a father. Although I can picture him making a few miscalculations about what makes for a good (read: healthy) bedtime story.
ETA: I can also imagine that he might make for an interesting neighbor, particularly if you did him a favor. "Oh, hey, some big blond bloke came looking for you, and I didn't like his attitude so I told him you'd moved out and gone to Alaska and there's a nice Argentinian couple living here now."

Considering who Loki's kids are in mythology, I don't see him as being a model parent. Though I guess Sleipnir turned out all right.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Sleipnir is pretty much the only Loki kidfic I will read. Because reasons and funny.

Windsparrow, that made me think of Spike trying to tell Dawn stories.

Yeah, you aren't wrong, erika. Spike and Loki would have different styles, but anyone they actually care about gets cared for. I can't decide which of them would have worse parenting skills.
