Another was a buxom woman wearing a low-cut, skin-tight green satin dress with round gold decorations adorning her gleaming black hair.
There was likewise a man wearing a regrettable green-and-gold spandex bodysuit.
A few more had dressed in more or less accurate Norse garb, from kyrtill to spjarrar. He had to admit that his signature headgear looked odder with those costumes than any of the others.
After a while, he developed a rating system. The Lokis that passed muster were those that excelled not only in the quality of their costume’s construction and the thought that had gone into it (hand-embroidered runes along the hem? An extra point. When those runes did not actually have any meaning or significance or, in some cases, did not exist-well, all gains were cancelled) but also the wearer’s ability to appear both charming and crazy, appealing and perilous. (Of course, the child Loki got a pass on this. Being cute counted for a lot.) A few that night rated 8s or even 9s on his scale, and with whatever godly powers still remained to him, he granted them a bit of trickster luck, may it aid them in unexpected ways. But there were no 10s. Of course there were no 10s. He was the 10, the original, the far-superior Loki of whom all others could only be a pale shadow.
When he was nearly candy-sated for the night and had amused himself thoroughly with his Loki-spotting game, he found one more. Dressed all in green and black, this one was apparently drunk, and locked in a deep kiss with… another somewhat larger human… in red and silver.
He narrowed his eyes.
He couldn’t quite make himself look away. You could almost mistake them, if you tilted your head to one side and squinted.
Interesting, he thought. Trick and treat all in the same package.
He wondered how much Thor knew about Halloween.
He supposed it was time to find out.

Loki's characterisation in this is flawless and thoroughly believable, and the whole thing is a joy to read. I adore Of course, the child Loki got a pass on this. Being cute counted for a lot., but have an extra-special soft spot for When those runes did not actually have any meaning or significance or, in some cases, did not exist-well, all gains were cancelled. WIN.
