#for not betraying Thor and risking the universe in TDW

[worstloki]

people worry or disagree with how the writers describe loki but in a way they not wrong as loki could be seen as pompous he literally went to earth and told people to kneel before him and called hulk a dull creature before uttering i am a god and his line i am loki and i am burdened with glorious purpose like sorry to burst your bubble, but that is clearly a pompus attitude. loki practically thinks his better than people on earth and they should kneel before him because his a god and better than a dull creature the hulk, i like loki but some of his fans are blind to his flaws also loki is an ass, i don't see how it wrong to call him that. like what are we going to call him? a sweetheart/angel for killing people? and trying to rule earth? etc like loki himself says his bit of both, good and bad. his not a saint. no offense but some loki fans need to stop wrapping him into cotton wool and accept/acknowledge his not a saint/his flaws after all his called the god of mischief for a reason.

I wouldn’t call him any more pompous for killing people, no, and he literally is a god, even if it’s only as a title (but remember how Hela and Thor were raving on about that in Ragnarok?), so I’m not seeing any real arguments for Loki being those things or an @$$ other than “boo hoo Loki killed people.”

It ain’t news that he’s done good and bad things, though feel free to expand on how that’s an argument in favour of kept characterisation when Loki’s expressed through words and action that he doesn’t want a throne, sees other races more equally than other Asgardians, and is ridiculously sentimental and selfless even when it comes to hatred. He’s also proven he holds jealousy towards Thor though that only lasted through Thor 1, resentment towards being treated lesser and betrayed, and a trademark stubbornness for the idea he deserves to be treated at least equally to others, which was exemplified and at its extreme in Avengers 1.

None of this is to say he hasn’t killed or lied/tricked people, but even if we for a moment pretend Loki wasn’t being tortured or wasn’t influenced by the mind stone his behaviour and personality still doesn’t line up (in what we’ve seen so far). This opinion will vary, and we’ve only seen clips so far, but please refrain from insisting that Loki is an @$$ with the proof that the character or another says he’s a bit of both.

Frankly how the writer describes the character is especially concerning because that’s the one way I’ve seen him describe him. “A pompous @$$” doesn’t show that he’s understood the character completely, only that he’s chalked up the Avengers 1 attitude to arrogance alone, but, I also don’t expect an interview to demonstrate the whole of his thoughts, which I think is reasonable.

Maybe sit down and read some decent meta before deciding he’s being cotton wrapped for being flawed and that people aren’t already aware of this stuff because the “fans are blind but I’m right bc I agree with canon” attitude isn’t very good. It’s okay to be critical of the media you consume and have different interpretations of things, or even the same, but all you’ve done here is shown you haven’t paid attention to and are still insisting on invalidating another view.

If you think that’s an accurate description of the character then that’s wonderful for you! Now try not to make fun of people who may not be in awe of the same words, especially if they provide decent reason to be apprehensive of them.

#anon #I’m too tired for this right now #Loki might not be a saint for killing but people are allowed to call him one for lasting a millennia on Asgard with the way he was treated #or for putting maybe 2% effort into the attack and 40% into monologuing away clues to his plan for the invasion #or if we’re going further forward than the past two movies #for not betraying Thor and risking the universe in TDW #for showing up with the statesman in Ragnarok after Thor left him convulsing indefinitely on the ground on sakaar #for not taking advantage of Asgard or bring its downfall while ruling as Odin #you’re allowed to think Loki’s an @$$ but you don’t get to tell others that they should too #especially not with whatever trash argument ‘should we call him an angel for killing people?’ is #you know what? maybe I will call him an Angel for that #the death toll of the invasion wasn’t even 80 and he stalled Thanos by YEARS singlehandedly and took 3 stones out of his reach #he then takes the prison sentence he gets and sticks to it till broken out #he’s served more punishment than many ‘heroes’ combined for actions not half as bad as what they’d done #maybe Loki’s an angel and anon is the @$$? #who is to say? #not me because I am by far too tired for this #blanket warm #whatever this ask is meant to be...... not warm #‘Loki thinks himself above the dull creature of the hulk and the humans who wouldn’t survive being thrown around by him’ yeah no sh*t #it’s a good think Thor for example doesn’t exhibit similar traits despite his ‘redemption’ in Thor 1 🙄 #imagine thinking that ‘characters have flaws’ is an argument when someone says a character is feeling ooc to them #anon no really I insist the only thing about Loki that is flawed is the deterioration of his eyebrows after Thor 1 #it does seem you’ll enjoy the show though so that’s good for you #I agree critical thinking off is a way to enjoy it too! #the Loki show #Loki spoilers #Loki show spoilers #‘wrapping him in cotton’ just made me think about Asgardian bathroom habits again #AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA show comes out today!!!!
