Hello, Darling. (Loki Imagines/One-shots)

Coming Out (genfic OR xReader)

POV: Second

Ship: None, but could be read as Loki x reader, or just general friendship. Works perfect either way, it's not the focus and there's no romantic mention other than "love," but I think platonic love is valid.

Type: Pride Fluff!

Wordcount: 519

TW: None

Synopsis: You come out to the team. (And so does Loki). Also there is no specific labeling of the reader, so you can imagine it as it fits your identity. So like there is no gender or orientation-specific mentions of the reader. You can be bi, gay, lesbian, trans, and still read this and fit it to your liking in your head.

A/N: This one takes up the "coming out" block of my Pride Month special! I do hope you like this one. I didn't feel the need to make it centered on romance, so just some Marvel coming out fluff. (Again, could be read as an established relationship OR friendship).

This was it. This was the day you were going to announce to the team your sexual identity.

You weren't worried that they wouldn't accept you, as you couldn't imagine any of them to be homophobic, but that didn't make you any less nervous.

You walked into the common areas of the tower, seeing most of everyone lounging around and immersed in their own conversations and affairs.

You cleared your throat, and most of the team stopped their conversations and looked up at you, expectantly. Most of them.

"Tony! Peter!" You shouted, the two of them looking over to you, surprised.

"Sorry, I was just trying to explain this movie to Mr. Stark." Peter said, and you rolled your eyes with a smile. "Of course you were."

You turned your attention to the whole of the room, taking a deep breath. "I have an announcement to make."

You hesitated for a moment before telling them, mustering all your courage as you explained to them what you were and what that meant.

The room was quiet for a moment, and you could feel your heart pounding in your chest. This was a bad idea. You thought to yourself, biting your lip.

"That's awesome!" Wanda said, walking over to you and giving you a hug. Natasha followed, smirking at you. "Pretty sure everyone knew you were fruity somehow. After all, we live with you."

You laughed, appreciating their support. The rest of the team voiced their support, all of them happy for you.

"You know, I'm what Midguardians call bisexual." Loki confessed as you took a spot next to him on the couch. "And gender-fluid." He said, and you smiled. "That's awesome."

Loki chuckled, standing up. "And the best part about that is-" Loki said, green magic flashing over them as their form changed to a more feminine form. "I can just do this whenever I want"

Loki did a little twirl and your jaw dropped as you took in her features. "Oh my god you're beautiful! Not that you're not usually beautiful, of course."

"Of course." She said, winking at you as she sat back down with you on the couch.

Most of the team was utterly surprised with Loki's transformation, but Thor looked indifferent. "Loki used to switch forms all the time in Asgard, especially when it would help them get out of trouble." Thor said, cracking a smile.

"I remember this one time when we were children, Loki ran in and caused a scene with her horse. She let the horse lose and ran back out, and then a few minutes later, the Loki everyone knew showed up. Nobody had recognized Loki in their female form, so they got away with it."

Loki chuckled, remembering that banquet night. "Later on Mother did realize it was me. Though, she never did tell Odin."

"Well, I still love you no matter the form you take." You said, and Loki gave you her signature grin. "Even if I was a worm?" She asked, and you rolled your eyes.

"I should have never taught you about social media."

"No, you shouldn't have."
