Did a self portrait in one of my laboratory classes today 🙏

Yes, Loki is a shape-shifter who can choose whatever appearance he wants. But they also lived as a boy and a man for the majority of their life despite this. Loki comes from an alien fantasy culture. But that culture has a rigid gender binary with it's own standards of masculinity that loki is not able to conform to. Loki's gender identity is not itself the focus of the narrative at any point, and is really only addressed off-handedly by other characters. But allegorically the entire plotline is about breaking out of the story that other people have written for her life. It's about how to become a better person when the world around you is unable or unwilling to separate genuine harm you've caused from intrinsic aspects of who you are.

This is not a one-note, fantasy version of queerness. This isn't a genderfluid character who is nonbinary in the technical definition of the word but holds absolutely no resemblance to any real person's experience of gender. They're not "above gender" or whatever the fuck. The transgender experience is baked into the character.
