My brother found a blue d6 by the table if anyone is missing one
If you'd like an audio retelling of the getting of Loki's children with Svasdilfare and with Angrboda that may be a little less problematic than something by Gaiman, there are are some readings of parts of Padraic Colum's Children of Odin (sometimes also called Nordic Gods and Heroes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfH6IIa3T1c (The part with the builder of Asgard's wall begins around 4:11 and Ā https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3MEr6-DZoQ (The part with Loki's children with Angrboda begins around 1:50:41, then there's a bit about Valkyries, and then more about Loki's children around 1:58:46) I hope some of that is useful for people
Here's a handout I did for a similar topic years ago, too. It's considerably shorter than the document I put together for the Freyja discussion last month: https://www.keeperofseasonshall.org/post/loki-and-his-kin
