mcu and mcu-adjacent writers who acknowledge sleipnir’s backstory but try to spin it so the original myth was ‘a misunderstanding’ or change it into something more palatable are fucking cowards. loki is that horse’s biological mother and if you can’t face that you don’t have what it takes

#this post brought to you by Past Topsy and the golden age of the mcu fandom circa 2014 or something #would that i could have posted this to thousands of online strangers back when it was relevant to both my interests and fandom in general #i didn’t have a platform at the time only pet peeves and correct opinions about the cowardice of authors #and i include the actual movie writers in this idc #god the mcu really used to be possibly going to be so cool do you guys remember #early mcu was one of the only things i read fanfiction for prior to 2020 #not a ton but like there was a year or so there when i was still riding the high of one of my main childhood interests becoming an #entire cinematic extravanganza when i was just the right age to fully Experience The Spectacle but still hadn’t developed critical thought #and even then i apparently already had SOME standards bc i developed this extremely niche pet peeve somehow #mumbling
