I’m just wondering what your tag for Loki stuff “he of the Andisol” means. Would you mind sharing?

welcometothewarren:

absolutely. andisol is a type of fertile volcanic soil, so it’s in reference to loki’s role as someone who drives change – especially sudden, drastic changes for the better. the disastrous nature of volcanic eruptions (hello, worldbreaker) is ultimately what leads to the creation of nutrient-rich, water-retaining arable land able to support some of the densest human populations with grain and fruit crops. not to mention andisols in the pacific northwest where i now live are home to some of the most beautiful and ecologically diverse forests and grasslands I’ve ever seen. loki might be the type of person to hit you with a volcano, but it’s always in service of some greater creation, some greater gift.
