Emmett has done better at the Q than I did during my entire teenage years. No lie.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I think Loki switches genders occasionally. Possibly he was also a horse? Or gave birth to a horse?
Loki gave birth to Slepnir, an eight-legged horse that became the mount of Odin, as well as the first of the ogres. He also fathered Fenrir, the God-devouring wolf, Jormungandr, the Earth-encircling serpent, and Hel, the Queen of the Underworld.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Emmett has done as well as I have during my entire life.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I want to mention that I advised sarameg against naming her cat after Loki.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Loki also wears a fetching pair of horns.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The giving birth to an eight-legged horse thing was definitely not in the movie. I'm pretty sure there would've been freaky-assed fic about that.

I named Swifty "Swifty" because he seemed kind of slow when I first met him at the Greensboro SPCA. You know, like how a big guy would be nicknamed "Tiny!"

I'm gonna pretend that sarameg's cat is fandom's new woobie. It helps me feel better about their life choices, you know?

I want to mention that I advised sarameg against naming her cat after Loki.
I also objected. I think I even told the story about my friend who named the computers in a network after norse gods, and the Loki one never worked right.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Emmet has done better at Quinceneara than I have done at most of the F2Fs.
Most. But not all.
Tom, you'll appreciate this. You know that scene in Korra where Bolin went on a noodle bender and Makko had to collect him and he was blubbeing, "You're a bad idea!"
Emmett is Bolin.
Except he's also like Finn in the "Hug Wolf" episode of Adventure Time.
