Hello god of magic, meet magical anomaly guy! Info on the manifold ways he may give Loki a migraine are here so I don't have to write it all out again.

He's very good at seeing past cranky behavior to the person underneath and then completely ignoring all attempts to drive him away, which isn't actually a magical power but possibly should be. He's living in Carroll Hall because there are too many people for his anxiety and insomnia in Art Kid Hall, but he's taking a ton of classes, including History with Professor Cap, all the languages Bucky has on offer, and Caleb's magic calculus 101. Gansey wants to know more or less everything about everything he finds interesting, whether that's academics or people.

Well, I can see why you didn’t want to rewrite all of that! 😂 Seriously though, I’m completely canon-blind here so that was very helpful. I’ve taken Loki from a point where he doesn’t know about his enchantment abilities so he has no idea he has the ability to do anything like mind reading, but I like the idea that maybe Gansey awakens this in him. It’s not like it doesn’t exist just because he doesn’t know about it though.

Those all seem like classes Loki will pretend to go to, or at least go to simply to cause havoc, so they will definitely run into each other. And Loki will be very surprised to find anyone who can see past his masks and cares to bother with him at all, so he’ll likely find Gansey interesting, though much of that might culminate in seeing just what it takes to put him off.

It all sounds fun to me though! I look forward to all of this.

No worries, I never expect anyone to know my canons since I only seem to app niche characters! Cabeswater is certainly a good vehicle for Loki to learn about cool powers. It's very big and chatty, even if it's not good at it. Mortal minds are so small and inflexible.

Gansey is 100 pounds of Issues in a 10 pound bag huddling under a whole bunch of masks, so there is delightful potential here. Loki can troll, Gansey can roll his eyes and smack him with a newspaper while they trade unsettlingly insightful banter. Fun for everybody!

Niche characters can be a lot of fun, I get that. And hey, Loki is technically mortal, but not on a human level. He is a thousand years old, so maybe Cabeswater will find him a little more flexible?

Loki knows all about issues. He just staged an invasion of his home so he could kill his birth father and make it look it was all to save his adoptive father’s life so he could earn some respect and prove himself equal to his brother. But someone who puts up with his nonsense who isn’t related to him might help steer him to brighter pastures. Maybe. 😂 Either way, it all seems fun to me.
