#my Loki cast edit
nostalgia-tblr · 10 months
Text
For anyone keeping track (no one), I have started watching the first Avengers film (MCU not the 60s TV show) but only while eating lunch so it's gonna take a while. So far Nick Fury has been assembling the Avengers (the film was initially released in the UK as Avengers Assemble - because of that 60s TV show - but it's not called that on D+ so I'm calling it what the Americans called it, just FYI) even though there's not yet anything for them to avenge as That Suit Guy (j/k I know his name too!!) isn't dead yet, and now they're on THE FUCKING VALIANT FROM DR WHO and I assume we're gonna continue assembling for a while as they're not all there yet.
MEANWHILE Loki (who is neither an alligator nor a woman in this???) is in a SECRET UNDERGROUND LAIR with a bunch of his stans who are... idk something technobabble that involves irridium and anti-protons. He is there looking for the tesseract on behalf of ???? who I know will be revealed 47 films from now as... no, wait, it wasn't, was it? That was just announced on a website or something? So it could be LITERALLY ANYONE. The Avengers (in-progress) also seem to be after that thing, but I have already forgotten why everyone is wanting it, assuming it was mentioned (it probably was).
Thor hasn't shown up yet, but Arrows Hawkeye is working as a Loki Stan and there's Steve Rogers and THE HULK and The Only Woman One, whose power is that she's a Cold War assassin (??) and I think this one is the film where she gets called a cunt (!) and honestly I am not sure which of the men she's getting officially shipped with, I think Arrows Hawkeye though? Fairly sure, as the alternative is that a man and a woman like each other as people but not in a lusty way, which would never happen obviously. (Hey I may ship mostly het* pairings but I don't always like it!)
Based on the Valiant (if u don't know who she is get da hell out of here!) I am guessing that the film ends with Loki dying in Thor's arms romantically but then I remembered that I know it can't because one of Loki got kidnapped from... either the end of this film or the start of the next one or POSSIBLY just from a later film's time-travel bit (???) but like... maybe they've edited this film secretly and I was right after all? But nobody else has watched it on Disney + recently so nobody knows yet? IT COULD HAPPEN.
Not sure what to make of this film so far, a lot's been going on yet also not much has been going on, and the one I like best so far (Suit Guy) is gonna die (NOT EVEN IN THOR'S ARMS ROMANTICALLY) and god Iron Man really hasn't aged well now that we have that one tech billionaire being a twat in public all the time to remind us what such people tend to be like. WHERE IS THOR????
*I say het but everyone in everything is bisexual, I know this because I thought of it and announced it on tumblr and will now say "I don't make the rules" to make it an objective FACT. I don't make the rules!!!
#the avengers (mcu edition not the 60s one)#(though if u close one eye and tilt ur head the black widow looks a wee bit like emma peel maybe?)#i like to think the lair of loki stans exists after this to post angrily on social media about how actually he did nothing wrong etc etc#let me know if loki's just working from a subway station that's still in use in this that'd be hilarious he'd be so annoyed by it all#torn on the tortured-by-thanos issue so far he does look messy but he might just have the flu and didn't want to back out#a lot of people are depending on him to jumpstart a movie superhero franchise he can't just take the day off can he#if loki took care of himself thor would be LITERALLY UNEMPLOYED how could he? how could YOU?#(the 'god of thunder' thing isn't a job he doesn't get paid for it so it's just a hobby)#(he doesn't even monetise that hobby! you think iron man would give you storms for free? EXACTLY. he'd have a patreon AT LEAST)#(“if you enjoyed this torrential rain pls tip me on ko-fi which is not pronounced like you think it is because it's a really BAD pun”)#mcu tag i guess#and whatever the fuck my loki character tag was#like i said i really do need to categorise my lokis more it's been bothering me for a while#reminder: i am here because they cast a woman in a previously-male role and SHE'S NOT EVEN IN THIS FILM. OR ANY OF THEM. D:#don't think the alligator's gonna turn up here either :( :( :(#otherwise it's just kind of fascinating what this film assumes i do and don't know about these characters#nick fury's a goth right?

All I Need [Loki x Fem. Reader]
A link to my Masterlist is HERE Summary: There's only one way to end a night on the town with Loki. (w/c 2.1k) Warnings: 18+ Minors DNI. Heavy smut. Dirty talk. Drunk Loki (reader not specified) A/N: Thank you to @earlgreydreamreplies for popping the mental image of club bathroom shenanigans with L in my Askbox and gave me the green light to run with it :) You're wonderful. I hope this further fuels your daydreams.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Every beat of the bass shook your chest. Strobe lights pulsed behind your eyelids as your face turned to the ceiling. The DJ slipped into a new sound, euphoria bubbling beneath your skin as you let your head fall back to Loki’s chest.
All I need, is your love tonight…
He was looming, waxy curls wafting against your forehead. You knew the look that would be swimming in his eyes. The fire. The need. Completely entranced in the hedonism of the night.
All I need, is your love tonight...
The god’s hands balanced on your hips, grinding you deeper against him. Against the insatiable demon that lay in wait, concealed in luxurious fabric and impeccable tailoring. His hips moving against your spine so close that you were sure his buckle would bruise.
All I need, is your love tonight...
He swayed back and forth, guiding you. Fingertips dug into the dip of your hips, thrusting against the curves. More strands of his hair fell against your cheek as he skimmed his skin to yours.
All I need, is your love tonight...
The beat dropped, just as Loki’s parted lips fastened to your neck. His tongue swathed across your skin in messy circles, ravenous. Teeth scraping against moist skin. Licking.
He was drunk. On you. On liquor. On everything.
Your hand raked past his temple, combing through sweat-damp hair which stuck to your fingertips. Pressing him closer to the curve of your neck, you felt the vibrations of his growl through tight shirt cotton. His cologne stung your nostrils, warm cedarwood that had been overrun by the tang of cheap vodka and second-hand smoke. Heat from his skin pulsed against your neck, a thin sheen of sweat coating his own as he worked his lips over yours in a swallowing kiss.
Bodies shifted all around you as one.
It was tight. And hot. Loud.
But when he spoke. There was only you.
“I want you,” he rumbled hot and wet in your ear. Loki dragged your hips to the side, colliding against the thick cock snaking against his thigh. Hard, of course.
All I need, is your love tonight…
An unseen smile tugged your lip as you slid your hand over his delicious cheekbones, spinning to face him. You wrapped your arms around his waist, tugging with a jolt. It shrugged him forwards, catching him off balance, perfectly timed as you leaned in to his ear. “Come on then big boy,” you hissed playfully. There were barely a pause as your fingers intertwined with his, leading him the well-trodden route of your youth to the bathrooms.
God, this place was a fucking dump.
You smouldered back to him as the music thumped, bodies parting like smoke to let you and your god through. Even intoxicated, even dishevelled and sweaty and mute and flushed; Loki Laufeyson was a titan among men. Your stomach fizzed as you watched each set of eyes in the heaving mass track his approach, and his departure.
They devoured him hungrily, from the endless depths of his transfixed stare, to cut of his jawline under the strobes, to the open buttons of his shirt, to the pull of cotton against taut flesh as he followed your lead. Black spindles stuck to his cheekbones, curls winding down his neck and cast over his shoulders. They spread against the white shirt like splattered ink.
They all wanted him.
Every single fucking one of them.
There was no need for pretence in a place like this. Better to be bold. And tonight...who cared. Loki’s free hand wandered to your ass as you emerged from the crowd, grasping needily beneath the hem of your dress as you walked with purpose towards the bathrooms. The approach was littered with loo roll and discarded cups, your heels sticking more with each step.
His arm shot out in front of your face, pushing the door ajar.
Smeared lipstick kisses coated the mirror, the smell of cheap perfume and fake tan. The place was windowless, tiny; a set of four cubicles that had seen far too much lined against the wall. Music from the main room seemed to shake the air.
The hand holding Loki’s was suddenly yanked backwards, pulling you to his chest. And then, he was upon you.
The god’s palms cupped your jawline firmly, pressing your lips to his. His tongue invaded your mouth, uneven pants and murmurs of desire sliding down your throat as he walked you backwards into the end stall. The door flew closed, locking of its own accord.
“You look so fucking...uhm, incandescent? Uh,..g-gods, in that dress I cannot,” Loki slurred between kisses as your fingers grappled with his belt.
He released your face, starting to undo shirt buttons.
“Don’t take your shirt off!” you giggled, as Loki’s eyebrows rose apologetically. “Wha- I’ve never done thish before,” he scoffed, fumbling with a button. A lazy smile flexed the corners of his mouth, eyes sparkling with life.
It was too much.
You launched at him, pressing him against the wall. Fingers tangled in hair, a violent hurricane of tongue and teeth clashing. With a gasp, the flat of your back pressed to the tile as he switched your places.
Loki’s forearm was flush above you. His brows knitted together, piercing you with the trademark smouldering eroticism that made your thighs tremble. “This place is filthy,” Loki growled, lowering his zip with painful slowness, “but darling, we’re filthier,” he winked. It was slower than usual.
He slid you up the wall, making sure that the ascent of his hands caught every curve of your body in that tight dress he loved so much. His fingers worked beneath the fabric, snapping the band of your underwear.
You sank down, the walls of your adrenaline-soaked pussy gaping for him. All of him. The tip of his furiously hard cock squeezed inside, making you wrap your legs tight around his hips. He bottomed out as wide palms held your ass tight, spreading your cheeks. Sometimes with Loki, all there was to do was hang on. So you slid your fingers over his shoulders, dug in, and did just that.
Loki threw his head back, ruined curls falling away as his face scrunched to the ceiling in pained pleasure. “Ah...f-fuck,” he gaped, “Norn-s, urghhsh...feelsh so good,”
There was something primal about this. Something that drilled right down to your core; past your pussy and your feelings and Loki’s pretty words and your fragile little future hopes and dreams.
Something dirty, filthy. Something animal.
Raw.
His stumbling curses of approval rang around the empty bathroom, your soft little moans that he adored spurring him on in the haze. Like a dog, inflamed by the dying cries of a rabbit. His open buckle clanged with every messy thrust, sopping cock squelching deep inside your little cunt.
“Why..does t-this feel so..good,” he slurred into your open mouth, half-lidded eyes boring into yours. “Because-we- shouldn’t-be-doing- it,” you replied though winded breaths.
“Ohhhh...thas it,” Loki chuckled, before another groan ripped from the back of his throat. You ran a hand through his hair, gathering a clutch in your fist. “Yeah, that’s it...fuck me baby;” you moaned; bucking against him, “fuck me like... an a-animal, all I need...yes...yes...f-fuck me, King-”
Loki’s grip tightened on your thighs, bruising tips sinking into hot flesh. You tugged his hair, a wet snarl erupting from his lips. His breaths were ragged, eyes flashing dangerously. There was no blue in them. No green, either. Just wide, lust-soaked darkness.
Beads of sweat had gathered at his hairline, his hot breath misting against your cheek as he took his pleasure. And yours.
“You’re mine, aren’t you-” he murmured, punctuating the rhetorical question with a wicked smile. You gasped, feeling stars begin to blossom in your centre. “Mmmm,” you managed, tightening your grip of his hair. “And you’re mine,” you hissed.
Loki’s lazy smirk of approval almost sent you over the edge. You were surprised you even heard the gaggle of women stumble through the bathroom door over the blood thundering in your ears.
Immediately, Loki’s palm pressed against your mouth. He winked again, even slower than before. You clenched around his cock in response, a soft ooo wisping from his lips as his eyes narrowed. He stepped in closer, torso pressed tight against your own. You heard the stick of his shoes against the grimy floor, the smacking of toilet cubicles and locks and laughter making you dizzy.
And then, slowly, he began to thrust.
It was shallow. Tight. Devastating. His public hair scratched against yours as he took you deep with shallow rolls of his hips. Sharp, jagged inhales and exhales through your nostrils were all Loki would allow as he fucked you deeper against the wall. His fingertips sank into the curves of your thighs. Hair fell around his face, sticking to his forehead in tangled threads.
He was panting.
So soft and low and wet.
“Uhh-h-h,” he gasped, catching in his throat as his lashes fluttered closed.
The fingers of the hand holding your body to his pulsed against your skin, spasming with the pleasure building inside him. Over the girlish chaos now filling the bathroom, you hear the increasing speed of Loki’s balls slapping against your wetness, the slurp of your arousal welling against his cock with every buck of his hips as he got faster. Greedier. His eyes rolled back, mouth hanging open. He began to moan softly to the ceiling.
“Wo-ki…” you chided, muffled by his hand. He focused back on you, pupils blown wide. In a flash, the world changed again as he gracefully moved you from the wall with the force of a gust, spinning your body. Your hands flew out, gripping the cistern as the toilet lid slammed shut. A gasp rattled the air. You didn’t know if it was you or him as he sheathed himself to the hilt.
Fingers gripped the porcelain, rattling suspiciously with each mind-bending fuck that sent shock-waves to your depths. The orgasm bubbling inside you reared with renewed intensity as you realised Loki’s fingers had slid from the back of your neck to rest over your lips again. He curled against your back, shirt buttons cool against the flushed heat of your shoulders.
“Quiet, my temptress of the night…” he growled with a silent chuckle, powering his thighs up into another squelching thrust. Brushing your hair aside, his tongue slathered against the back of your neck. Saliva pooled, his drooling panting animalism taking over as modesty was forgotten. His dishevelled, quiet groans of desperation.
Seizing the opportunity, you captured one of his fingers between your lips. Loki shuddered against your ass. He let the finger slide on your tongue, the thick digit following the path his cock always took to the back of your throat.
“F-ffuck,” he slurred, the utterance no more than a whisper.
Another finger joined it.
And then, you began to suck.
Saliva welled at the creases of your mouth as he brought you closer to the edge, his free hand grasping in lazy handfuls of flesh. Your ass, your thighs. Yanking at the dangling sides of your dress and the pathetic last vestiges of your underwear. He was needy. Groaning in huffing exhales and shallow breaths as the ridges of his fingertips traced the point of your tongue.
“Gonna-ing to- cum,” he moaned wetly against your back.
You heard the scuffle of his dress shoes on the floor as he tried to get his bearings, the appendages dripping inside the heat of your mouth and the tight of your cunt too much for him to bear. You felt his glistening forehead rest against the slippery nape of your neck, damp hair mingling in sluttish waves with your own.
His mouth was open, saliva strands sizzling against the skillet of your skin as he tumbled over the edge with a broken cry of ecstasy. Your arms collapsed against the cistern, the weight of the god bottoming out inside you all you ever needed to feel whole.
“Nornsh…” he grunted quietly. There was a bang on the door, followed by a raucous round of laughter.
“You okay love?” an inebriated voice announced, “need anything?”
More laughter.
Loki shook his head against your back, nuzzling the skin with a shaking sigh. “I’m fine,” you said; far more composed than you felt. “Thank you.”
The gaggle of clicking of heels and sudden blast of music signalled their departure.
Loki drew up to his full height, sliding his cock out with an obscene slurp. Cum immediately began to drip in thick rivulets down your inner thighs. Usually you would clean it up. But not tonight.
You spun to face him, stepping out of your ruined underwear and pulling the dress down your hips with a mischievous smile. The underwear disappeared from the floor in a flash of green.
Loki winked, patting his heart twice with a shocking lack of characteristic rhythm. “A memento,” he explained with a flourish of his hand. A beautifully dreamy grin had begun to spread across his face.
“Home, my queen?” he postured, beginning to re-tuck his shirt and doing an incredibly bad job of it. You zipped up his fly, pausing to inhale against his collar. Faint traces of cologne wafted in tendrils up your nostrils, masked by the heavy smell of sex and the night’s vices.
“One more dance,” you purred, intertwining your fingers with his. You guided Loki’s hand to the mess coating your inner thighs, dragging a digit lightly through your plump folds, soaking with him. And you.
Loki smiled. “Filthy,” he growled, before he bringing the fingers to his lips with a gentle suck.

some of my favorite agents of shield fun facts (season 1 edition)
- while filming the scene where skye gets sh*t by ian quinn in 1x13 [T.R.A.C.K.S], they took hours to film not only because the scene was so intense, but because there was a christmas parade happening nearby that was so loud it kept interrupting the shot.
- another shot interruption occurred in 1x16 when filming scenes at the race track. they couldn’t shut down the track entirely during filming so halfway through a scene a horse would charge past in the background and they would have to reshoot the scene.
- chloe had such a bad driving reputation back in season one that she was banned from driving all golf carts on the lot. she also accidentally stalled a car while rehearsing a scene and everyone panicked.
- they only had 15 days to film 1x01. FIFTEEN DAYS TO FILM EVERYTHING.
- in the end of episode 1x12 [Seeds], there’s a moment where coulson is voicing over and says “the world is full of evil and lies.” during this moment, the camera is on ward. this is one of the first main references of ward secretly being hydra.
- there were three-ish main sets for backgrounds during season one. set 16 was their “labyrinth set” with random sets like the abandoned race track, parts of Providence, john Garrett’s “layer” and a small set for the Freezer.
- clark gregg was so adamant about the casting for the cellist that he actually called audrey nathan personally and told her she was perfect for the role.
- on the day the cast was to meet to discuss filming the last two episodes of the season, a 4.4 earthquake hit los angles which the cast though was foreshadowing the darker episodes to come.
- to represent coulson coming back after what happened to him during the avengers, the wardrobe department tailored his suits differently to give coulson a “new feel”. they really said “let’s mix this shit up and give him a slicker [yes, that’s the word they used] suit.”
- also, coulson never wears black suits after his death due to loki. he only wears shades of grey, never plain black as it reminds him of death.
- the only direction the wardrobe department was given on ward’s outfits was that he needed to look sexy. that’s it.
- as the season progresses, skye wears darker clothes to represent her loss of innocence as the situations get darker.
should i do one for season 2? this was fun and i was bored :)

《~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~♡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~》
everyone knew it was coming, the mission you had just gotten back from a few days ago definitely still leaving pressure on your mind.
It takes you some time to bounce back from the stressors of an undercover mission especially when its one that Bucky or Steve weren't able to accompany you on.
You had fully planned on taking the weekend to relax and let your mind recoup, both of them knew and fully supported that plan in fact they had everything prepared for if you went into little space.
Due to you being so busy and than wanting to relax you had forgotten about the barbecue, on the same day every year tony throws a small party of just the team and has a barbecue.
While Steve was taking a shower and you were sleeping in Bucky was getting your stuff together, pulling out an easy and comfortable outfit that would be fitting for being both big and little.
Once ready himself he packs a small bag of stuff that you might need if you do regress while around everyone, Steve helping wake you up for the day, running his hand along your back and humming out a good morning greeting he could tell you weren’t little per say but you also weren't completely big, you were definitely going to drop sometime today.
"Hey there love, good morning, are you ready to go to the barbecue picnic?" It clicked i. Your head and you grumbled out in mild frustration, not at the fact there’s plans but because you forgot about it.
Pushing the soft fluttery feeling away the best you could, "i can get ready now" you mumble getting out of bed after a deep hug from Steve.
Finding the clothes Bucky layed out for you, you feel relief that they'll Casual and comfy instead of formal and fancy, slipping them on Bucky walks back into the room to you brushing your teeth and Steve patiently waiting on the bed.
Bucky and Steve communicating trough silent glances helping buck understand your current headspace.
Once at the barbecue it wasn’t as much of a stressor as you assumed, you sat around talking and laughing with team mates, snacking, listening to music, the whole shebang. If you slipped up on words you’d just blame it on being extra tired today and they would understand it and mind no matter to it.
There were plenty of activities to do, both big and small everyone was happy to go around and just have fun.
All was going well for the first two hour, you’d inevitably been able to fight of your little space fairly easily. Watching a movie on the projector with Bucky next to you sharing a popcorn when a boom of thunder and a flash of white crashed down to where you and everyone else were hanging out.
No one payed any mind to it but you, when the sound rumbled through your lungs like bass you jumped in your seat, screaming, your eyes clamp shut.
The bright light fades and in its place you see a tall muscular man clad of battle armor, beautiful long golden locks cast around his face a laying calmly on his shoulders.
He goes around greeting everyone with hugs and starts approaching you and your boyfriends, you know him, you’ve never met him but you are aware he’s often present you’ve just never sat down to talk or get to know each other.
Looking at Steve with worry lacing your headspace he knows what’s happening and all he can do from his spot currently is nod for you to lean into Bucky and smile.
Steve’s kind smile a grounding place for your mind.
"Greetings Bucky greeting Steve!" Thor booms causing you to squeak covering your ears while burrowing into Bucky, in that moment everything hit all at once sending you plummeting into your headspace, its not that he’s scary because honestly he looks like he gives phenomenal hugs he’s just much louder than Steve and Bucky
"good afternoon thor its good to see you, could you talk a little quieter?" Steve responds as you cross from Bucky to Steve’s lap, slipping deep into your headspace, there was nothing wrong with Bucky’s lap its just because of how close thor was to where you had been.
"Of course, i can see your little mortal is scared of loud sounds"
"Yes, loud sounds and new people but its okay, were okay, aren’t we Hun?" He looks down to where your head is pressed into the crook of his neck, patting your back.
"I am sorry little star, i truly did not mean to frighten you" he soothes while sitting next to Bucky to give some space.
They continue talking as you stay right where you are, wrapped up in Steve’s arms, him soothingly rubbing your back giving you the occasional kiss to make you smile.
What you didn't realize was that him soothing you was to help you feel comfortable in little space.
Your attention getting caught by a tell-tale scene in your favorite movie making it obvious what’s on, your head pops up first and than you climb out of Steve’s lap going the sit in the little section with peter, wanda, and loki (yep loki is smol in this)
Plopping down your eyes wide open cast up at the screen, a smile on your face, your attention grabbed.
Bucky and Steve don’t have to worry about if you get up and wander, there’s several caregivers around happy to redirect you if you go exploring, they know you’re safe so they turn to each other when thor goes to greet another member.
Getting caught up in conversation they don’t notice when the movie ends and you wander over to the snacks area, opening the mini fridge filled with little safe drinks you find your favorite juice, taking it to the table and try to open it but surely enough the lid wont budge.
Looking around everyone seems to be occupied with something or talking to someone until your eyes land on thor, standing at the railing overlooking the city, gulping down your anxiety and taking it to him for help.
You tap him on the arm taking his attention, he looks down at you and grins, "hello little star, what can i do for you?" You hesitant, considering going back but you’re really thirsty so you hold out the juice, "chu open?" You question pleading with your glistening little eyes, a look no one could say no to.
"Do you have a sippy cup with you?" Making you think for a moment, nodding you run off to where your daddies are, tapping Bucky on the shoulder, "dada, an i hab sippy please?"
"Of course baby, do you need help?" He hands you the green sippy from your bag.
Shaking your head, "no, fank chu dada" you run off back to thor handing it to him, waiting patiently while he pours the juice into your sippy cup for you.
"Anything else little star?" You think for a moment before taking his hand dragging him over to the toys, "tower" you announce showing him the blocks. He joins you building your block tower.
People started gathering around the gill area to eat when the food was almost done but you and thor stayed playing with the toys. He would do silly things like 'accidentally' knock down your tower on purpose and than getting scared by the clatter, making you coo and giggle out.
Bucky and Steve can see you having fun so they don’t come over to bother you.
Eventually you get worn out feeling the need for an afternoon nap you put away the blocks, rubbing your sleepy eyes, thor notice you’ve slowed down, your movements are less exact and your eyes are becoming heavy.
He takes it as a cue to do the rest before opening his arms for you.
Without even thinking you lean into him letting him hold you, your head gently layed on his shoulder as he walks around with you in his arms, swaying you, you fall asleep without a fuss.
Walking over to Bucky and Steve in the lounge area they can feel their hearts melting, he sure is good at what he does, "your little star has fallen asleep" he sort of whispers.
"You must be special, they never fall asleep without their stuffy" Bucky smiles taking you out of thors arms so you and your daddies can go back to your floor.
You stir awake from the movements "can you say bye to uncle thor baby?" Steve asks
And so you do, waiving as you three walk off.
《~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~♡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~》
The next one will be done in a few hours, i like posting at night

Pulling Me Under (Loki X Reader)
Hi! Uhhh No content warning that I can think of other then no editing prior to me throwing this out here into the universe XD Just a random idea I had based on a dream. Let me know what you think and if I should continue this?
Tumblr media
If anyone would have asked Loki to define true love his answer would be to quickly say that true love doesn’t exist. He would say that it’s something Midgardian made up as a way to give their silly little lives meaning. Sure, he had seen the way his mother looked at his father when he was younger, but even on Asgard love was something complicated and something he would rather not dive into. 
Loki was the God of Mischief after all, so it was always safe to assume that he had every kind of experience known to a human in regards to love. After all, he had been around for centuries. And yet, Loki’s perception had changed the moment he locked eyes with you. You simply took his breath away in ways that he thought never could exist. 
At first, Loki thought you may be a sorcerer, casting a spell upon him. He watched you curiously as you spoke to the other Midgardians, assuring them you would be fine for “guard duty”, whatever that meant. He paced within the glass chamber that held him. He needed to get the specter and finish his mission. He needed to take over this blasted planet and make everyone kneel before their new king. 
“So why don’t we make this easier for everyone and you tell me about the wand,” you called, leaning against the railing outside of the container. 
“It’s a specter and I will be needing it back,” he said dryly.
You sighed. Of course he wasn’t going to make this easy. You quickly scanned your notes from the clipboard in your hands. SHIELD hasn't given you much information. Only that the god before you was Loki, God of Mischief, brother of Thor. The same Thor who all of your coworkers were practically drooling over. You made a face thinking about the break room full of giggles, everyone else seeming to be fantasizing about the elder brother and yet you didn’t see it. Thor seemed arrogant and proud, too proud to even speak when you had passed him on the way to take over guard duty. At least Loki acknowledged your existence.
“Hello? Midgardian? I asked your name,” Loki’s voice called, snapping you out of your trance.
“______,” you answered honestly. 
You didn’t know why you had given him your real name, but something about the way his bright green eyes looked over you sent shivers down your spine. You felt compelled to talk to Loki more, almost yearning to know more about him, about his cause— yet you stopped yourself. This man— God— whatever he was had murdered hundreds of people. He was dangerous; hence the giant glass cage he was in before you; but you found yourself drawn to him, silently begging him to say your name.
“______,” Loki said, repeating the name you had given him. He liked the way it sounded coming from his lips. “Say, ______, why don’t you let me out of here so we can retrieve the Tesseract and my specter together? Then I can go about my business and become your new king.”
Loki was no fool; he knew simply trying to play nice wouldn’t get him his freedom. But he also couldn’t bring himself to threaten you like the guards before you. Loki studied you; noticing the way you glanced between him and the board in front of you told him all he needed to know: you were just as confused by him as he was you. He watched as you matched his pacing, subconsciously matching his speed as you both walked around the cell. 
This had become a game of cat and mouse; only no one was really sure who was the cat. You both felt the tension in the air. It was silent minus the sound of your footsteps echoing around the room. Part of you prayed for Fury or Stark to come relieve you, send you away to get air. Yet the yearning grew stronger. The need to know more grew and grew until you could no longer stop it. Suddenly you found yourself entering the code for the center and stopping in front of the man who was once held captive inside.
Loki stopped in disbelief. Had he really convinced you to let him out? He shook his head, no this feeling-- it was something even he could no longer deny. Loki wanted to be selfish. He needed to find his scepter and the tesseract. Voices within echoed, yelling at him to move, to break free from his chains, but instead he shocked even himself holding out his hand. 
You looked at him, every fiber of your being seemed to be yelling at you to run. Every training you had ever taken told you how wrong this was-- how badly this would end, and even still it was a risk you couldn’t help but take. You took his hand, mentally making a note of how soft his touch was as he pulled you close. Loki was inches from your face, both of you frozen in the moment not knowing why or how you ended up here. 
“Well that was rather unexpected,” Loki admitted aloud, gently pinning you against the cell that once held him. 
He knew he could break you, leave you for dead. He knew that’s what he needed to do otherwise he risked ending up dead himself. Loki knew showing this much weakness-- for anyone, let alone a Midgardian, made him no better than his blasted brother. Loki cursed at the mere thought of his adopted brother. He wanted so badly to hate him so badly to show him how it felt to be forgotten, but Loki still couldn't’ focus. 
He found himself effortlessly pinning you against the wall yet you didn’t fight him. You watched him seeming to be entranced by his presence. Thousands of questions came to mind, yet nothing could come out of his mouth. The two of you could have stood there for hours, yet it felt as though no time had passed. Loki wasn’t sure himself what to do next. 
“____________ you in here?” A voice called, the wide door to the room that held the cage opened.
You froze, you knew that voice. You knew how disappointed that voice would be to find you being so weak; so helpless as Loki held you. Yet you still couldn’t find the will to fight. You couldn’t find the will to scream. You honestly wondered if he had done something to brainwash you. 
Loki’s eyes widened as he watched the door open, a figure approaching. Time was ticking, his window to freedom was vanishing. He cursed himself once again before taking his hand and wrapping it around your waist. He wasn’t going down, but he also wasn’t letting you out of his sights. 
You weren’t sure how he did it, but suddenly you weren’t in the room with the cell. You looked around, realizing he had teleported you both in the room where the newly formed AVENGERS were meeting. But why here, you wondered looking around before noticing the scepter that was just feet away. 
“Um, who let the newbie in here?” a voice asked.
You waved awkwardly, trying to decide if it was best to run or distract. Everyone in the room stared at you, Tony Stark and Captain America both standing and glaring at each other before moving towards you. 
Everything else happened within an instant. Thor locked eyes with Loki. Cap realizing that Loki still held you against himself. The room turned into chaos, everything seeming to cause another big reaction. You weren’t sure what to do, yet you didn’t have to do anything. Loki jumped into action, grabbing his scepter and using it to turn Hawkeye against the others. 
You closed your eyes, not wanting to witness the fighting, but the world around you grew quiet. You peeked your eyes open to find that Loki had teleported you somewhere else-- but you weren’t sure where. You looked around, noting the lack of city streets. A flower field stretched out in front of you, guarded by a forest. 
“Alright Midgardian, now we have all the time in the world,” Loki’s voice growled as he swiftly pinned you against a nearby tree.
“W-what?” you questioned.
“Don’t play coy with me. You’re a sorcerer aren’t you?” Loki’s tone was serious, but you couldn’t help but stifle out a giggle at how absurd he was being.
“Me? A sorcerer? Buddy up until you and Goldilocks showed up I was just a normal human with a boring government job,” you admitted.
Loki searched your face hoping to find something he could go off of. He, being the God of Mischief, could tell when humans tried to be deceitful, yet he couldn’t sense anything from you. He wanted to scream, to be infuriated. If you hadn’t done anything, why couldn’t he shake this maddening feeling? Why couldn’t he get the thoughts of leaning down, pressing his lips against yours out of his mind? 
The more he thought, the more he realized how little he knew regarding this topic. Yet he had time. He knew the others wouldn’t find the two of you. But now what? What was his next move? Loki released his grasp on you, beginning to pace as he lost himself in his own thoughts. Normally you would object; you would demand to be taken back. But something in you was curious as to where this would lead. Neither of you truly knew how powerful this connection was, yet no one could deny the chemistry between you. All you knew was you wanted to be where he was, as crazy as that sounded-- but then again it didn’t sound so crazy to him. Maybe Midgard wasn’t such a bad place to be after all.

TELL ME ABT YOUR OTHER HYPERFIXATIONS!! Mine are currently Loki, ofmd, good omens, and Hozier :D
THANK YOU FOR ASKING, THIS IS GOING TO BE LONG!
There’s a few hyperfixations of mine I’m always talking about but right now there’s 3 main ones.
1. The Boys
2. Invincible
3. Peacemaker
The Boys is the main one; I loved it since it came out back in 2019. I moved on sometime after S3 ended and I found another hyperfixation but now new content is coming out with S4 so I’m back on my The Boys bullshit. I’m a Butchlander shipper, BILLY BUTCHER AND HOMELANDER CONSUME MY THOUGHTS. I AM BEYOND OBSESSED WITH THOSE TWO! I need them to kiss…. And-and more. Anthony Starr and Karl Urban are my current celebrity crushes that I’m only able to think about. If you follow me in insta it’s just been The Boys 24/7 that I’ve talked about since new content started dropping thanks to S4. HOMELANDER IS MY BABYGIRL I WILL DEFEND HIM I DON’T CARE FOR HIS CRIMES I DON’T CARE IF I’M SUPPOSE TO HATE HIM, I LOVE HIM. BILLY BUTCHER MY GOTH BOYFRIEND I WILL DIE IF YOU DIE. HE CANT DIE, HE JUST CAN’T. S4 teaser was insane, so much was going on, Black Noir is back?! And Jeffrey Dean Morgan is joining the cast! AND TEAMING UP WITH BUTCHER?! They said that trailer was just a scratch on the surface of what happens, wasn’t even a trailer just a teaser but it had so much going on WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT’T JUST A SMALL TASTE OF S4?! I’m scared but excited. I’m nervous but excited (Billy if you fucking die on me- that’s what I’m most worried about)
Invincible is my other current hyperfixation, S1 was so good and I can’t wait for S2 to continue. They should’ve dropped all the episodes at once that way I don’t have to wait but whatever. Vigilante is my little meow meow from Peacemaker. I love Adrian so much, hate that I gotta wait till like 2025-2026 for S2 possibly.
My other interests that I talk about all the time (not currently much though thanks to The Boys) are:
• NATM/JedTavius
• Venom/SymBrock
• SamBucky/Marvel in general
• FNAF
• Who Framed Roger Rabbit
• Maleficent
• The Simpsons
Night at The Museum came out when I was 7, I’m 24 now, I haven’t moved on. It was my first hyperfixation and ship before I even knew what that all meant. I’ve written like 30 JedTavius fics. I’m a Venom fan first and a Spider-Man hater second. I will defend Venom at all times and Eddie and him are definitely in love. When the FNAF film came out it brought me back to my FNAF phase, Foxy’s my favourite with Bonnie being second. I watched the film about 20 times. Then in November I started a personal rewatch challenge on Insta where I watched it all month long. Meaning I’ve probably watched it at least 50 times and I still haven’t gotten sick of it (also I love the Josh Hutcherson whistle meme. I don’t care how much people hate it I think it’s funny.) I’m a huge Marvel fan, I literally grew up with the comics, I’m not kidding those were read to me as my bedtime stories. My favourite characters are Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes as a result I ship them. I never shipped Stucky, that never made sense to me whilst Sam and Bucky have so much chemistry. Sam Wilson is everything to me, I adore SamCap he’s MY Captain America (still love Steve though!) Roger Rabbit is my favourite fictional character of all time, my biggest comfort character. Growing up I really tried to base my personality off of him, the world might be obsessed with Jessica Rabbit but I’m obsessed with Roger. People need to draw, edit, and cosplay him as much as they do Jessica. I’ve been a huge Simpsons fan since I was like 10 and my mother dropped me off at my aunts house and she left leaving me alone with my cousin who was watching The Simpsons and it took off from there. Nelson Muntz is my funky little son and they need to make Nelisa canon. Maleficent is my favourite Disney character (actually like quite a bit of Disney, second favourite character being Donald Duck) I based a lot of my style around her, and I have a lot of Maleficent collectibles. I absolutely love the Angelina Jolie’s Maleficent films (totally ship her with Diaval).
There’s a few other things that I really, really love. I’m also a huge horror fan my favourite being Chucky/Child’s Play as well as Killer Klowns from Outer Space, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (not 3D), Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, etc. Sanrio, Kuromi is my favourite second is Pochacco, I really love animated films and cartoons. IT, Monster High, and more. I’m also a collector of all these things.
So there you have it. Those are all my hyperfixation and fandom’s that I’m in. Right now especially those first 3 that I talked about (seriously can you tell I really like The Boys? Lol)

Fridays Random Thoughts - Loki & Nuada Edition
Something I always daydream about is what if Prince Nuada and Loki met? In a sense they're very similar and a lot of the fanfiction produced is too. For example (my absolute fave types) is where instead of dying or being locked away, they're rehabilitated and they begin to fight for the right side (in Nuada's case it's the BPRD and for Loki it's the Avengers) and the reader either loves annoying the shit outta em and they eventually get together after the brat princes open up or the reader was set to be in charge of them and monitor them and things in their relationship begin to develop.
Anyway after that tangent if these two brat princes met, I wonder if they'd get along and how things would develop. Would they bond over being cast out by their fathers, trying to save their people (well in Nuada's case at least, in a sense he had good intentions but didn't execute them correctly), being beaten by the hero, their distaste towards humans (depending on the iteration of Loki). If it were TVA Loki or perhaps even Thor (1) and Ragnarok Loki, I feel that they'd put up a facade around Nuada and lie about him no longer believing all humans are bas. However Dark World Loki and Avengers Loki would definitely joke and complain about how pathetic the human race is. Dark World Loki may feel more of the guilt and heavy burden of being hated by thousands and thousands of people and may feel bad about his actions whilst being under the control of Thanos and he may put up a slight facade like the other iterations, but he also still thinks humans are beneath him and a lot of them are pathetic.

I've been seeing a lot of mixed emotions and frustration surrounding what we heard today from Samba on Wee John Wondays, regarding the immense amount of deleted scenes, cut material, original episode concepts etc, from season 2. And I just wanted to give my two cents here.
Look, it is absolutely valid to be pissed at HBO Max right now. They slashed OFMD's budget, cut their runtime on a per episode and a season basis. This resulted in plotlines having to be reworked, character & relationship development compressed, and some minutiae & connective scenes omitted. The thought of that sucks! It would have been nice to see the polycule shown more directly onscreen, and to see Ed & Stede dance, have a longer goodbye to Izzy, and maybe work through Ed and Stede's relationship rollercoaster a little more gradually. I'm sure this hurt no one more than David himself, who's had a clear vision of all three seasons from the start - who's now had to deal with not only a truncated s2 but a cancellation soon after to boot.
But I think it does a great disservice to the entire cast and crew who worked immensely hard on season 2 to dwell overlong on what we could or 'should' have gotten. They worked their asses off to bring us something phenomenal! Season 2 was incredible - and your mileage may vary, but all analytics indicate season 2 was even more popular and well-received than season 1 by audiences and critics alike. There was a whole team of writers who worked deftly and skillfully to crunch ten episodes into eight without compromising the core elements, themes, and plotlines they wanted to include to tell this story, plus a talented cast who brought their own improvisation to set every day and gave us some of the season's most iconic moments. Everyone on the OFMD crew is proud of what they made, as they rightly should be. It was beautiful television.
Expressing dissatisfaction with what was cut is fine to an extent, but let's not let it take away from our enjoyment and appreciation of the final product we did get, or give the crew the impression that what they worked so hard to give us wasn't good enough. They want more than anyone to have had those extra scenes in there to show off the hard work of the whole team! I'm seeing this a lot especially with the talk about the early draft of Calypso's birthday (and this info is not new, Samba spoke at length about it during his baking class back in November). Regardless of your opinion on whether you think that would have been a 'better' version of the episode, it was just that - an early draft, that never came close to being filmed. David and the writers revised this concept because, apart from time constraints on the season, ultimately they felt that the concept they ended up going with best served the narrative. Even Samba agreed that he preferred the final version. There's no secret footage of this other version, we didn't 'lose' anything - this is one of the dangers of scripts getting released for any piece of media, because the mind runs astray dreaming of the possibilities of what may have been, when the reality is all shows go through moderate to sometimes heavy editing before the final version, and the audience probably doesn't need to see that process!
The fact that season 2 turned out so beautifully, with some of the most moving and iconic sequences television's seen in quite a while, and a love story that has touched so many, is truly a testament to the passion, dedication, and skill of the entire cast and crew. They have achieved the status of cultural phenomenon, season 2 was the 5th most watched series in the entire world on streaming services, outperforming shows like Loki. They've got several dozen articles with glowing praise from major media outlets, a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes, multiple award nominations, and more than anything a loyal fanbase who's in it for the long haul to fight for a season 3. They have succeeded to this level despite all the stumbling blocks HBO Max has thrown in their path. If season 2 was OFMD held back from its full potential, then I think they should be damn fucking proud of what they've made.
Samba pitched an official bts documentary for both season 1 and season 2 and was turned down. This show deserved better than HBO Max was ever going to give them. He's going to try and post deleted scenes and a blooper reel if he can (not all heroes wear capes, folks). And it's very likely none of these things will ever be officially released (though, we can make a stink about it!). Be angry about it, absolutely. But we need to channel that energy into the fight for renewal. Double down on efforts to get the attention of Netflix, Prime, Apple TV, and FX, get more signatures on the petition (87k as of this writing!), and just keep talking positively about the show on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook with our hashtags. We need to show the crew that we're upset for them, but so grateful for the beautiful season we got too.
So let's not bicker and wallow about what was 'stolen' from us - the final canon product is ultimately the final canon product, and any other tidbits are fun but neither owed nor necessary. They trusted that we could put the pieces together, that we'd be able to read between the lines when scenes that would have made things more explicit, or developed them further, had to be shortened or cut. And that trust was well placed! We sussed it out. Celebrate the ofmd fandom for all the excellent meta, art, fic, we've gotten, and celebrate season 2 for its joy, its profoundness, its nuance, its enduring hope and how much it's given to so many. Air your grievances respectfully, and then get back to fighting to give OFMD the well-funded third season it deserves!

You know, I love the show. In my opinion it was peak cinematography and a great story, and don’t let me start on the cast. I can’t shut up about how gorgeous everything is
Except.
Who the hell is responsible for the hideously photoshopped posters for season 2?
I mean, okay, I kinda made peace with the one where Loki is surrounded by a möbius/escher-ish strip. It’s actually not that bad, too smooth but interesting to look at. But the other Loki will haunt me for months. And maybe you as well. But, well, surely whoever is responsible for the design of posters does know that you don’t need to edit so hard it looks like an ai generated picture. They know that, right? anakin_padme_meme.jpg
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now, I didn’t expect these post-finale posters. Like. Okay, you photoshopped these green vines, they kinda look like iconic green lightnings magic but also like timelines, if you squint really hard
Tumblr media
But his hair. Loki got so bored inside Yggdrasil he popped unto a timeline to buy a hair straightener??? Do glorious purposes/burdens do that to hair? WTF. What happened to his curls?? Who stole them?
This one looks slightly better, and I love his soft godly look. but I don’t recognise his face. Also, the horns headpiece is tilted (?) or has extra shadow (?) or is shifted lower (?) and looks too bulky. In the episode it looked like a part of him
Tumblr media
But the absence of curls is unsettling.
How do I unsee?

y'all ever just sit there and go:
"damn, why do the men with long/longer hair almost always die/end up being full of red flags?"
the longer I live, the more this trend continues.
a few of our (possibly) late greats...
Eddie Munson (~1967-1986) :
Tumblr media
Lovely man, fought the man, absolute f-ing icon (for the gays, the bis and the pans)
(IT 2017) Patrick Hockstetter (1974-1989) :
Tumblr media
There is a list of things, I won't get into all of them, but somehow he's still a bicon.
Hunter Sylvester (???-???) :
Tumblr media
Rage issues, unprocessed emotions, kinda not equal rights at first ngl, not a good friend. Still somehow slaying, fabulous hair; got a redemption arc. I can't tell if he's bi, gay, or an incredible ally but go for it dude. You're fabulous and I'm glad they at least TRIED to have you be better than you were at the start! Thank you for not remaining a dick!
Loki Laufeyson (???-???) :
Tumblr media
I don't know how to define this, he's so chaotic but not in like a purely bad way? He's a trickster god, of course he's gonna cause problems. but then oops! then haha sike I'm not dead then oops, wait I'm actually dead then oops, I'm in a timetravel super secret megacorp now! as a prisoner! oooh! (I never finished watching Loki so that might be wrong, but yeah, man's got a rollercoaster)
edit:
Ryan "Trick" Tribecky (???-???) :
Tumblr media
not really any overt red flags other than his early exposure to mature things and his drug usage/access. and he doesn't die, he's just.. y'know, it's him (I'm watching the episode as I write this so-- I can't exactly truly fully judge him yet)
edit:
Nah he don't belong on this list, screw the main girl's mom, man.
edit:
PLEASE-- like, honey- you didn't ask to be recorded while doing it with the girl you've LIKELY had a crush on for years and now oopsie she's gone! thanks jackass helicopter mom!
It's just painful, like-- I want one long-haired dude who's fun, possibly chaotic but not a total douche and not dead/doesn't die--
please, just grant me one, my creative and powerful writing and casting gods! Just ONE!

20 Questions for Fic Writers
Tagged by @ollieofthebeholder
How many works do you have on Ao3? 65
What’s your total Ao3 word count? 905,117. That's...more than I thought
What fandoms do you write for? Currently TMA, previously RT/AH, the X-Men alternate timeline movies, Good Omens and a few other fandoms
What are your top five fics by kudos? Awake and Unafraid, Cold as Cryospace, Beauty of a Secret, Put Your Mouth Where Your Money Is, and Borderline
Do you respond to comments? Very rarely, because I am still kinda shy and not at all good at responding to positive feedback or kind words (besides just keysmashing)
What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? You know, as much as I love some good angst, I don't really do angsty endings. I think the closest is A Snowy Night just because it was prequel to canon so it couldn't end without separation
What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? They've all mostly got happy endings. Best I'd say is Awake and Unafraid
Do you get hate on fics? If I ever did I don't remember it. If I did I deleted the comment because I'm not dealing with that shit
.Do you write smut? If so, what kind? The very slow kind, because it takes me forever to write smut. Like I'm fighting for every damn word.
.Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? Outing myself as 2013 tumblr cringe, but I wrote a Loki/Sherlock crossover series long before Bendy Cumby was cast as Doctor Strange. It was fun
Have you ever had a fic stolen? Don't think so
Have you ever had a fic translated? No one's ever asked me, so idk
Have you ever co-written a fic before? In high school I did hand-written RP with a few friends, but that's it.
What’s your all time favorite ship? Hard to say all time favorite because I love them all equally. Right now its GerryMichael but JonMartin are still very dear to me
What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? Besides my active WIPS I need to finish my TMA/Addams Family crossover or my beta will kill me
What are your writing strengths? Once I get a character's cadence in my head I can write their dialogue pretty accurately. Also I've unlocked the great writing secret of "I will write what I want to write" which helps sometimes when I get stuck or can't commit to a fic direction. Also when I have shit writing and need to fix it, I don't feel guilty about changing what I wrote to something better.
What are your writing weaknesses? Shit writing. When I put the words on the page and it doesn't read the way I want and is missing my personal touch. Editing that is a bitch.
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? I've made that mistake before when I was younger. Now I'd maybe reach out to a native speaker before trying google translate, because my personal standards are higher and because google is shit these days
First fandom you wrote for? I think it was the Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 anime. Something for an ex friend
Favorite fic you’ve written? Awake and Unafraid my beloved. Because I'm deeply proud of it, both the story itself and all the details I worked into it. Its the longest thing I've written, has the highest hits and kudos, and most importantly, its the fic that I wanted to write and it turned out beautifully.

9 People You Would Like to Know Better
Tagged by @strangenewwords. Baby's first tumblr tag, thank you!
1. Three ships: I'm technically ship-agnostic in the traditional sense, but if we include the whole relationship spectrum and not just the sexual end of it: TOS Kirk+Spock+McCoy, Loki+Mobius, TV Solo + Kuryakin
2. First ever ship: OG Holmes+Watson. I blew through the ACD Holmes canon at 9 years old, before I ever knew what a hyperfixation (or fanfiction) was.
3. Last Song: My working playlist is allllll over the place, but High Hopes (Panic! at the Disco)
4. Last Film: The Man from UNCLE (2015), if we're talking full film. I don't have a long attention span, so I tend to fast-forward through familiar favorites instead of sitting still for 90 minutes at a time.
5. Currently reading: Good Omens (cast production Audible edition)
6. Currently Watching: Outside of fandom shows, Air Disasters (Paramount+). I'm studying problem disambiguation for work-related things, and it's typically a great way to outline clearly that there's never one reason something goes badly wrong.
7. Currently consuming: Starbucks Peppermint Mocha chilled espresso drink. I love Fall, but y'all can keep your gross pumpkin spice crap well away from me
8. Currently craving: Hot wings and a Dr. Pepper, but that's not desk food so we're going to settle for Cheez-its
I spam my followers enough with randomness, so an indiscriminate invite to participate here, if you see this!

Beginnings & Endings: MCU Edition
Happy New Year's Eve friends! This evening, I thought it suitable to crack open some honey mead as I wiped the tears from my friend's face, watching her slip into a restless slumber.
I made her watch Loki and requested her to not watch the series finale on her own. Well, she listened. She came over. She watched and now I'm dealing with the aftermath as well as once again, facing my own demons. However, I find this oddly serendipitous given that it is New Year's Eve and we watched Loki.
Let me explain.
*Sip, sip*
This holiday season, I took it upon myself to rewatch the entire MCU leading up to Endgame. Mission accomplished, I finished up today with the Loki series finale, and after tending to my friend, taking a few sips of this beverage, and watching as the clock slowly ticks into the New Year, I take a breath.
*Sip, sip*
Marvel's Loki, in the comics, is very special to me. Not only did I start studying the Norse Pantheon at a young age and became fascinated by the God of Mischief, but when I discovered him in Marvel comics and quite enjoyed their take on him, I became hooked. Following the character's success, especially because of the phenomenal performance of Tom Hiddleston in all the movies, Loki seriously upgraded in the Marvel comics. He is now one of, if not the, most powerful characters in the comics, has an incredible redemption arch, and continues to be such an entertaining character.
*Sip, sip*
Simply put, Marvel's Loki was my discovery for my love of comic books. It started with Loki and expanded into something so much more.
*Sip, sip*
I had mentioned previously that when Thor (2011) came out, I did not go to see it in theaters---which I immensely regret---because I did not know who the hell Tom Hiddleston was and did not trust him with my favorite, my first comic book character. And I distinctly remember watching the Thor panel during the SDCC and noticed that Tom did not get asked a single question from the audience. Not one.
How foolish.
*Sip, sip*
Fast forward to after the release of Thor, the Avengers movie is creeping close. You have the entire Marvel cast on Hall H's stage: RDJ, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, and so many more. And then, there is Tom. And just as distinctly as I remember Tom not getting asked one question at the Thor panel, it came to the point that the host of the Avengers panel had to request that the audience STOPS asking Tom questions and address some of their queries to the rest of the cast.
*Smiles*
*Sip, sip*
You see, a nice chunk of the Avengers meet each other for the first time in the movie. The build-up to it, this idea of an intertwined MCU is found in Iron Man and Captain America: The First Avenger, The Incredible Hulk and Thor, but they are all sort of just ghosts to each other. Brief mentions like whispered easter eggs for the audience to catch. And then something changes. Something big changes.
Loki lets go.
Loki, distraught and heartbroken and so incredibly lost, allows himself to plummet into the abyss, uncertain of what is next. His entire life, a twisted lie. He, a monster that probably gave him nightmares in his youth, whispered to him by the tongue of his own father and brother.
So Loki lets go and he comes across a titan and they strike up a deal.
And the Avengers make that super awesome pose where they all stand back to back in a circle, getting ready to fight off the alien army that invaded New York at Loki's behest.
And so, Loki started the tying of the branches, the impossibility of an MCU now possible. Seeing all of these heroes, together, in one film all because Loki let go.
And I truly think that the writers, the producers, they don't understand just how much of an impact that single choice for that character had. Yes, it is Loki who serves as the Avengers' first villain in the comics as well. The one they have to all rally against. And I do appreciate the beauty in keeping the original villain the same, especially for a group of heroes so grand as this. But still, I get the sense of a lack of appreciation for the character (not the actor) that they may have inadvertently written into such an important role.
In essence, the 2012 Avengers film was a groundbreaking film, something unheard, unseen, and certainly not imagined before.
All brought together, all possible because of Loki. He started the MCU, he started the Infinity Saga, he started the Avengers storyline.
*Sip, sip*
And then, there's this. The new saga in the MCU: the Multiverse.
Loki started that too.
*Sip, sip*
Marvel never did favor releasing their films/shows in timeline order. Which is fair; some are in development, some are done before another, some were planned first, and so on. There are a plethora of reasons as to why it is not "in order." But the multiverse, as has been confirmed by several writers, producers, and in the timeline order of the MCU starts with, that's right, Loki.
Sylvie may have slain He Who Remains, but Loki had ways out: kill Sylvie, take He Who Remains' place, maybe keep time slipping. There were options. Not good ones, but available ones.
But he chose to let that go, too.
*Sip, sip*
The reason why I did not care for his end in Infinity War, I realized after having watched the show and now revisiting Infinity War, is because good writing is not giving a character who has lacked happiness for so long just a glimpse of it before ripping it away. It is not allowing that character to be so close that they might graze it with their fingertips just to be denied it moments later. No, good writing is letting them enjoy it.
Loki was so close ... and then his neck got snapped.
But the reason it works in the show as opposed to Infinity War is because Infinity War feels like such a cheap trick. It felt like such a typical case of "okay, we have this character, they served their purpose, we're not sure what to do with them anymore, so let's just kill them off." Talk about lazy writing. This character who built your MCU, who brought the Avengers together, who knows just how much of a threat Thanos is, who has such incredible powers ... and you have him killed within the first twenty minutes by having his neck snapped when he tried to stab said titan with a dagger?
*Sip, sip*
Pathetic.
*Sip, sip*
In the show, Loki is once more so close to happiness. He has friends. A purpose for once. He's not alone and there are people there who believe in him, who see something in him. And for a moment---just a moment---he is allowed to be happy. Having O.B. help him learn to control his time slipping, reaching out to Casey upon his return, sharing pieces of pie and pep talks with Mobius, and Verity (oh, Verity) on his side and helping him through it all. Loki is allowed to smile and laugh and lean on his friends. He is allowed, if only for a moment, to be happy.
And then he chooses to let that go to save them. And it is not in a cheap trick "kill them because we don't know what to do with him now" type way.
Loki knows how important it is to his friends that those timelines, those universes get to live. And it even becomes important to him too. So he lets go of the possibility of happiness. He lets go of everything he ever wanted, finally within his reach. He lets go not to die but to do something far more tragic than that.
To be alone. Forever. To give the universes a chance. To make sure that every story gets told.
So that the universes can survive. So that the variants get a chance. So that the "what ifs?" become possible.
And so, Loki created the multiverse.
*Sip, sip*
It is an incredible thing what good storytelling and true character development can emotionally elicit from the audience. I still feel immense sorrow and joy. But ... I've only felt this once before.
*Sip, sip*
No matter how many times I rewatch Revenge of the Sith, I, like many others, think, "Maybe he won't, this time. Maybe he won't change."
But he does. He always does.
Anakin falls.
Loki lets go.
I always said that Anakin Skywalker had the best character story in the history of character stories. He was such a well-written character with incredible arcs, both good and bad. So tragic and heartbreaking yet hopeful. And if you had asked me last year who is the best-written character I would have said Anakin Skywalker without hesitation.
This year ... moving on ... the answer is no longer so simple. Because now, the answer isn't one.
The answer is two.
Anakin Skywalker, no doubt.
And Loki.
*Sip, sip*
The Chosen One who needed to be saved.
The villain who became the ultimate hero.
If anything good came out of 2023, it was these two.
Anakin giving Ahsoka one last lesson.
Loki creating a saga for the MCU one last time.
*Lifts glass*
Here's to your end, 2023. On to a new beginning, a new lesson, a new saga.
Excelsior!

With a bounce in your step, a warm sunny morning, the forecast was predicted to be fairly warm, being the beginning of autumn it wasn’t quite time to put away the warmer months clothing, a couple more weeks.
You volunteered to pick up an extra few hours of someone else’s shift so they could have the time for a doctor's appointment, it was going to be fun.
Getting ready you put on a comfortable pair of shorts and a loose sitting t-shirt, a flannel for if your arms got cold, finishing up your morning routine, grabbing your headphones and bag kissing Loki goodbye and leaving for a ten to fifteen minute walk to work.
Why not savor the sun while its still there.
Once at work you put your headphones on and got into the groove of putting new books on the shelves, trinkets on display and checking in boxes of new inventory for next week, helping customers along the way.
A game of magic going on in the corner, hearing the cheers and laughter upon the group, children playing with the interactive center its perfect, or was perfect, taking your lunch break you head to the cafe across the street to get a sandwich and something to drink as usual.
Sitting down in the lounge to eat your sandwich and send off a couple emails and being ready to head back, throwing your trash away, carrying your drink with you, waving goodbye to the person behind the counter.
Clocking back in from your lunch. You quickly get back to that you had been doing, carrying a stack of books to go in the historical fiction section when you trip over books that were left off the shelf, the books in your hands scattering across the floor and yourself falling hard onto your chest not having time to catch yourself. At the moment the shop had been empty save for a few people in checkout.
Picking yourself back up and dusting yourself off and gathering the historical fictions.
Putting them in their place you go and put away the tripping hazard books and start tidying up the interactive area.
Your normal shift comes to an end, starting to work evening inventory, your coworkers clocking out leaving you with closing shift. The clouds rolling in, at first they didn't look like rain clouds but once they cast completely over you noticed that they were looking unreasonably dark grey to just be rain clouds.
Ten minutes or so later the first mark of rain hits down outside, hoping to yourself that it stops in time for you to walk back home.
About halfway through inventory and restock someone comes knocking on the door, a woman tries opening the door finding both are locked and knocking again.
You unlock the door and open it enough to talk "what can i do for you ma'am?" You smile, your customer service voice playing role.
"You know what i want, I’m here to shop" she snaps
Pointing at the closed sign and the printing of the store hours on the window you chime, "I’m sorry but we closed almost two hours ago, you’ll have to come back tomorrow or another time, I’m sorry for the inconvenience"
Trying to push her way in "yes but you’re here so do your job" you close the door quickly locking it, your hands trembling, luckily she leaves while screaming how you’ve lost a valuable customer.
Finishing up you shoot Loki a text letting him know its been a bit of a weird day and that you’re clocking out a half-hour early after getting permission from your boss.
The rain hasn't stopped, infact it seems as though its started coming down harder.
Stuffing your phone and your headphones into your bag after wrapping them in your flannel in hopes of keeping them from getting wet, locking up and doing your best to walk under the store canopies, making it a couple blocks when a car driving past hits a deep puddle splashing you, luckily your bag stayed mostly dry.
A crack of thunder followed by a flash of lightning, lighting up the sky, noticing the leaves on the ground and the ones still changing in the trees. Your first instinct was to try and get home to make sure Loki was okay because of the storm, you really didn't care about how cold and uncomfortable you happen to be without your music, the center of the storm just so happened to be over your city, it doesn't look like its going anywhere.
You a block or so from home and all instinct hits to go as fast as your body can handle, you can see your apartments.
A small cast of warmth creating its place in your chest, finally this strange day is over, running up the stairs you fumble with your keys when the door clicks and opens from Loki.
He’s standing there with a fluffy towel, pulling you inside you feel a sense of warmth wrap around you in tour home, an a towel straight out of the dryer.
Helping you out of your shoes he has you wrapped up in the towel, leading you to the bathroom, "oh my mortal i am so glad you are safe" you can see it in his eyes, he’s relieved.
Helping you rid your body of the soaking wet, freezing cold clothes he helps you into the warm bubble bath he had ran for you just minutes prior to you arriving.
Making sure you are comfortable, he places a cup of tea on the edge of the tub for you, dimming the lights he steps out for a moment but returning with a pair of pajama bottom and a green henley from his side of the closet.
"Have you eaten since lunch?" He questions
Shaking your head he smiles to himself.
"Come on out when you feel ready my love" with a smile he walks out of the room.
Once the water had lost its heat, most of the bubbles had faded and you had finished you tea you pulled the drain, stepping out to dry off, getting dressed in the comfy clothes he left you, you emerge from the bathroom to the smell of your favorite dinner, the thunderstorm much more enjoyable from inside your cozy home he hands you a plate and taking his own, sitting next to each other on the couch eating and watching whatever movie happened to be on.
"I put your phone and headphones on their chargers, and hung your bag up to air dry over the weekend" he mentions.
Once done with dinner he cleans the plates and returns, you’re leaning into his side when feels it’d be more comfortable cuddled in bed where he can hold you close. He truly does love you, whether or not it can change the temperature of his cold skin he feels warmer when he’s with you and its never been such a desperate desire to run through him until he met you, you feel like home.
Helping you up he leads you to the room letting you get comfortable under the covers while he pucks out a book. Joining you he pulls you to where your half on top of him, he places a gentle chilling kiss to your temple before opening the book to read aloud.
The thunder outside and the rustling leaves on the trees, his voice like a lullaby, a love song through each and every heart beat and humm from his chest, if there was an option to stay like this forever he would do beyond anything to make you feel even just a sliver of peace you’ve brought him, truly he sees your gift as unsurpassed, there is nothing he could do to ever show you everything he feels because of you but he plans to spend this lifetime of your trying.

Edited Rooney Mara as fem presenting Loki (aka Lady Loki) because in my opinion she’d be the absolute perfect casting 😭
Not only does she actually really resemble Tom but she has a very similar personality irl, sensitive and reserved but very intelligent and observant, and with that sad and dark kind of beauty, very poetic in their way of speaking too 🥺 not to mention how amazing and versatile of an actress she is so I just really think she’d be perfect for the role sigh

Marvel "Solo" Films- Unpopular Opinion
I don't know if there will be a 3rd solo/stand alone Black Panther film, but so far I'd say the Black Panther movies are the most consistent stand alone films in the MCU.
Black Panther was a cultural phenomenon with one of the best villains in the entire MCU. The cast, the world-building, COSTUMES, music. The only downside was that the 3rd act fight was dark. Wakanda Forever was a meaningful study in grief with perhaps the best teaser trailer EVER. Again, great cast, music, costumes, world-building. HEART. Namor was compelling. A little overstuffed w Iron Heart & Val on top of well-done Talokon. M'Baku stands out in both films. Nakia, Ramonda, Okoye & the Dorae. The tone from one film to the other is CONSISTENT.
Iron Man trilogy- the first Iron Man movie was awesome. Darker, grittier than much of the rest of the MCU. RDJ becoming Tony Stark. Cool suits/tech. Funny. Sad. Awesome. And then... the sequels kind of sucked. Yes, they had cool tech & stunts & RDJ carried them. But Tony pissing the suit? Bird? Fake Mandarin? *Cringe* They were bad.
My beloved, Captain America. Chris Evans did a great job as Steve Rogers. More nuanced & less flashy/quippy than Tony Stark, but great. CATFA was a sweet little comics movie w vintage vibe. Red Skull is a campy villain done as well as they could. Pretty good movie, not groundbreaking. BUT THEN- Captain America the Winter Soldier happened. It made Cap a badass. Fight scenes were AMAZING. Elevator scene! Cap & WS in the streets & at the end! Cap vs Quinjet! Nick Fury car chase. Black Widow badassery. Winter Soldier was scary & Hydra menacing. A tight, well-directed, well-written, well-edited, overall great FILM. Best of the MCU. PEAK Steve Rogers characterization. Yes. LOVED CATWS. So, then, Marvel said... "fuck Steve Rogers and his fans" (forever bitter & fuck you too Marvel). "RDJ's aging out & he makes $$$$. Let's give him Cap's 3rd film cuz BatmanVSuperman is coming & we're scared." IF you look at CACW as a Cap film, then Tony would be the villain. He's the 3rd act fight, the other face on the poster, the one trying to kill Steve. But, it's NOT a Cap film because Marvel couldn't suck RDJ off enough & could never nuance Tony's lack of emotional control as villainous. Nope. They made him Wooby crying out for his Mama. Waah! It's Avengers 2.5. It introduces Spiderman & Black Panther. It features every Avenger. It starts w Tony's early life trauma/loss of his parents/intro of his loving mom. (NO Sarah Rogers in Cap3, tho.) Then his guilt over lying & making Ultron & nearly ending the world. The longer end scene is Tony tending to his BF's injuries & sulking over Steve's apology. THEN we get a glimpse of Steve rescuing his friends from The Raft. Steve BARELY had more screen time than Tony in supposed Cap3. So, it's not a stand alone film. Cap fans were robbed.
The Thor films? Well. Uneven is an understatement. 1st Thor is kind of like the first Cap movie. Different tone. Deals well with campy comic elements. Branagh directed it as Shakespearean dramedy in space. Asgard is beautiful. Movie was made for the female gaze (like Mr. Hemsworth) and is a female fan fave. Thor the Dark World... is a dull follow-up. Malekith is the dullest villain ever. Dark Elves are so generic looking it's sad. If they'd been done differently, it could've had real menace. Lots of people are afraid of the dark, after all. Instead, Dark World is the most panned of all early Marvel films. Ragnarok is its polar opposite. Bright, colorful, comic-beautiful, but too funny. There's zero gravity to anything. Asgard explodes? Time for another joke. It's a fave, especially male fans. Thor is more badass in it, too. Loki is great. The faux tease of World War Hulk had fanboys delirious. And then there was Love & Thunder. Oh, L&T. Female fans were so excited for Mighty Thor/Jane Foster. Male fans were delirious that Gorr was coming & being played by Christian Bale. And, it's a huge flop. Again, comics beautiful. Too quippy, Taika. Not dark enough/wasted Gorr. Honestly, I enjoyed the kids/kiddishness because we took our son & he loved all that.
AntMan? The first was well done. Offbeat. Paul Rudd is CHARMING. Luis was the best thing in it. Scott's love for his daughter gave it HEART. Funny & fun. Great tone, though villain was meh. AntMan & the Wasp? Less fun. In big part that's because there were cast members phoning it in. Fishburne doesn't realize he was in it, FFS. Positive fam dynamic was too cheesily played. Meh. Then, Quantumania. Wait that may be the biggest flop of all MCU now. No stakes. No LUIS??? Exposition that something's coming? Lots of "care about these quirky characters you just met" and "listen... we're telling you Kang is bad... what? why should we show you?" Sigh. And... visuals were murky when the Quantum Realm should be vivid and sharp and vibrant and the most important element of the film.
Marvel is lucky so many fans have good imaginations and make their characters better than they did.
