* AdoptionAngst: Not as bad as his canon counterpart, but Loki does have this issue to deal with, to the point that when Thor excludes him from the Jotunheim trip (because he's afraid Laufey may recognize Loki)he is worried that it might be because Thor doesn't trust him.

* BadassNormal : Coulson, whom the Aesir team refused to take along at first for fear that he would slow them down, performs well enough to earn a compliment from Frigga.

*EldritchAbomination : The Death of the Endless. Its very presence is enough to nearly destroy the minds of every one present.
*EldritchLocation : Niflheim, where the spell they need is hidden, turns out to be one of these.


Added DiffLines:

*HeroicRRoD : Loki dies (temporarily) from one after using an extremely complex spell to undo Odin's curse on Thor. Only Hela's intervention keeps this from being permanent.

*NotQuiteDead : Hela implies that Loki's case is this - but that may be because they are in Niflheim, where "life and death mingle". That is why she can bring him back.

[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/24016552/chapters/57779809 The Beginning of Infinity]] is an AlternateUniverse fanfic - a timeline where Loki, the best known Anti-Villain/Anti-Hero of the Franchise never goes super villain at all.

Basically, what would have happened if Loki didn't end up [[TomatoInTheMirror finding out about his actual species and heritage]] just at the wrong moment, but had known all along?

Thor and Loki have known of the latter's real parentage since childhood. However, even without the Trickster's involvement, [[InSpiteOfANail the Jotun attack and it's consequences happen.]] With Asgard at the brink of war, Thor banished, Odin down and a Mad Titan pulling strings in the shadows, Loki, Sif and the Warriors Three scramble to salvage the situation. Only, it is even more complicated than the young Asgardians can imagine...
