#kid loki asking thor for advice because he doesn't trust only himself is so cute

[worstloki]

i kinda thought kid Loki dying was kinda triumphant actually

I mean I cried when I got there, cause I kept thinking there would be some sort of miraculous other way or some clever trick

But when he said “I win” and I realized that him dying was the trick, it made it less sad for me

I think the sad part about it is that the whole story was him trying not to die, trying to find a way out of it- plus he’s a kid

So it would be sad to see happen, but he did win and that would make it more of a “glorious finale” than a “tragic ending”

Loki wins by proving Loki can do good even through using tools of wicked and cunning and trickery, but in order to stay good he's constantly stuck in scenarios of making a bad thing happen to prevent a worse thing and that's why it's a tragedy? Literally a self-constructed demise. And the way that theme carries through from the earlier issues of the run is wonderful :')

#it's beautiful #the line ''a comedy in 30 parts or a tragedy in 31'' lives in my mind rent-free #kid loki asking thor for advice because he doesn't trust only himself is so cute ??????? #loki was really out there proving the world wrong by trying to do good and being fine if it was only himself and thor who know it #you know? #so he did win #he proved he could do good and make sacrifices and not care for others #but then ikol-loki comes in and has to relearn what the smaller more innocent version of him did #except no one understands that kid loki was set to die anyway #so now he's guilty of having killed a better version of himself and struggling to match up to him #that's Young Avengers by the way #then you jump over to Agent of Asgard and he cares for how he's seen so wiping his past crimes is a substitute to deal #it doesn't actually make him less guilty of anything because it's still him who did those old crimes and lying through redemption #and then he burns 🥺 because an older version of himself found even when he changed nothing else did 🥺🥺🥺 #but in intervening and making loki understand that he can only change himself the older loki makes things brighter for his present self 🥺 #and then we get to War of the Realms where Loki's siding with the bad guys but doesn't care what people think of him on either side #and it's not from his own POV but you can tell he's messing their plans up and prodding even as he helps #and then he does the betrayal and turns side and it's like #he's not going to be seen as good and he;s fine with that as long as people can trust him enough to let him do good #it's just 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 #Loki (2019) was rushed imo but Loki asking if he could be an Avenger and getting laughed at??? but still asking again and accepting terms?? #beautiful #JiM Young Avengers AoA Loki my beloveds <3
