THE CR TL;DR MEME

HOW IT WORKS:

1. List your character(s)!
2. Others respond with "what does your character X think of my character Y?" or some variation.
3. Respond to them! Break out those teal deers!
4. Generate some discussion about your CR!
5. PROFIT!

OHHH I didn't see this before I went to bed. You are so much more coherent than I was when I wrote yours. XD

So basically, she acts like his friend and Loki doesn't know what that looks like. He has such a convoluted approach and Willow is... very straight forward. She likes him, they're friends, that's enough for her to put aside her suspicions until he proves otherwise. It's not amazing to her, it's just how she is.

I seriously awwwww'd that he'd murder someone for her. I DIDN'T REALIZE HE CARED THAT MUCH. That's so cute, Loki. :( And not wanting to let anything happen to her even if he's still willing to use her... that kind of intention is probably what would get Willow to forgive him if he did use her and she found out.

edit-- Though she's follow it up with "you could've just asked me!!" all huffily. Won't that be an instructive conversation for Loki. LOL

She's just being herself and it makes her some magical rare creature in his world view. Loki's usually really good at operating with things that he doesn't entirely understand and he very naturally falls into patterns where he uses people. So it just all fell out to where he's realizing he likes what she does more than he likes the idea of using her as his own personal plot device.

He's also becoming really territorial here in the game. He's stuck in a randomly shifting population that generally is neutral towards him at the absolute best, and his plans are still all in flux. So he'll shank anything that risks what little he has gathered for himself.

Also, finding out that he could just ask for help rather than create careful scenarios to manipulate people into things could be really fun. Alarming and baffling, but fun.

She is a good personal plot device, admittedly.

She would understand being territorial even if she wouldn't see it or phrase it that way. Willow's going to be massively overprotective of the bits of positive CR she has, too, due to being stranded from her castmates. You've definitely seen enough Buffy by now to understand why that would affect her so much. haha

We DEFINITELY have to do that because you know Willow's penchant for doing things just because her friends ask her to. xD He doesn't even need to manipulate her.
