Loki is not as bad as we think. The story of the Aesir were written by Christians and because they always need a bad guy in their stories, they chose Loki and his children to be the bad guys. In fact, without Loki, there would be one season and Hel isn't Hell but where people go after their death, good or bad. Loki is a Trickster and a shapeshifter but there's everything he can do. By the way, Thor cannot fly, he just throws his hammer to kill enemies and (you'll be shocked), he's not "a handsome, muscular man" but an ugly red bearded man who only enjoy three things : fight giants, drink and travel with his good friend Loki who's also known to be able to eat much more than anybody, especially when he's hungry.

Frey doesn’t even get an honorable mention? Outrageous! He’s the god of peace, sunshine, and good harvest! He’s the Lord of Alfheim (the realm of the Elves), destined to fight and die by Surt’s hands at Ragnarök! Even Tyr thinks Frey’s awesome! In the poem “Lokasenna,” Tyr says, “Frey is best of all the exalted gods in the Æsir's courts: no maid he makes to weep, no wife of man, and from bonds looses all.” Frey is a chivalrous liberator. He at least deserves an honorable mention!

Friday comes from the Old English frīġedæġ, which means “Day of Frig.” Even if that wasn’t true, which it is, we’d still have Sunnadæg (i.e., sun’s day/Sunday). The Norse and their cultural cousins (i.e., the ancient Germanic peoples) worshiped the sun goddess Sunna.

Freyja is the *patroness of Friday ("Freyja's Day")* 4. Odin (and Asgard)'s past tolerance of Loki was due to *an old oath way back in the past* , earthquakes were caused by *painful spasms caused by the snake venom hitting his face when Sigyn/Sigun drains the cup* , and is *pansexual* (case in point: the Fenriswolf/Fenrir) 5. Thor once *crossdressed under (gleeful) Loki's guidance when dwarves stole Mjolnir* , and he had to act as a bride for one of them (who noticed "her" hirsute form & voracious appetite during the wedding banquet) 6. Odin is *also called Woden/Wodin (hence patron of Wednesday ("Woden's day"))* ; another epithet is *Skyfather* due to his wardrobe of gray & sky blue; similar to losing his eye for wisdom, in return for knowledge of the runes *consented to be hung from a tree (not necessarily Yggdrasil) as well as wounded by a spear* , and gaining that knowledge bestowed it freely to mankind; also *bestowed mead to mankind* (who drinking it would make one a skaldic poet)

Also, I don't recognize Skadi as a goddess, at least not truly. I think of her as being a "goddess by marriage" or at least a minor deity, as she kinda took over many of Ullr's titles.

Spoilers for Netflix Series Ragnarok: Wait. Why was Vidar so in this series evil then? And why didn't Odin know of him/talk to him whatever? >.> Also Loki in this series is SO well written and I love him and feel so bad for him lol... I sincerely hope there's gonna be a third season bc that ending, my goodness.
