LOKI USES MAGIC TO CORRECT HIS BAD VISION, FOR SOME REASON, HE JUST DOESN’T/CAN’T ONE DAY, AND HE GETS OUTED ON IT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. not even Thor knew

platoniclokiimagines:

  • you didn’t think much of Loki bumping into the table when he came down for breakfast
  • nor did you think much of how long he stood staring into the cupboard to find his ‘World’s Okayest God of Mischief’ mug
  • however, when you turned to see that he was pouring orange juice into his bowl of cereal, instead of milk, your curiosity was… piqued, to say the least

“Trying a new take on cereal, are we?” “…what?” “Your cereal… and the… orange juice you’re pouring into it…?”

  • and he laughs a little awkwardly, looking at the carton in his hands

“Guess I grabbed the wrong one…”

  • and he just kinda awkwardly pauses
  • and just stands there, staring at the fridge

“Is…everything okay, Loki? You’re acting a little off.”

  • and he turns to look at you
  • and he’s got this embarrassed, almost apologetic look on his face

“I can’t see what the cartons say.” “I… what?” “The cartons. I can’t read them. My vision’s messed up.” “Do Gods get vision problems? Did you hit your head during the last mission? Should we go to a doctor?”

  • and he laughs softly
  • and shakes his head

“No, no. I’ve always had bad vision, I just… use my magic to… not have bad vision. Usually. I’m not sure what’s wrong.” “Wait… you can do that?”

  • and he opens his mouth to answer, but is interrupted by a quiet little

“Brother… why didn’t you say something?”

  • and you turn around to see Thor standing in the doorway, looking both shocked and a little hurt
  • Loki has the decency to look apologetic

“It didn’t seem important at the time.”

  • you insist on taking Loki to the optometrist though

“Just in case your magic messes up again sometime.” “You want me to wear glasses? They look to be a pain to deal with.”

  • you decide not to tell him about contact lenses
  • and he is an absolute pain to deal with at the eye doctor’s
  • refuses to stay still and cooperate
  • but once he’s finally done and you get him to start trying on different pairs of glasses
  • you become an immediate Fashion Consultant
  • you insist he really looks okay in any of them
  • and when he takes to wearing them around the compound some mornings
  • you make sure no one is too mean to him about them
