Hela was Odin's executioner. Meant to make examples out of any that stood in the empire's way. Meant to strike fear and bring realms to a heel. Meant to crush defiance.

Loki was Odin's assassin. Meant to remain unseen and unheard. Requires traits deemed disreputable in Asgard. Getting his hands dirty to polish Asgard's gilded veneer through "necessary evils".

Thor was Odin's champion. Reframing Asgard's crimes as glory. Reframing Asgard's imperialism as necessary. Thor embodies Asgard's ideals and as its champion is walking propaganda.

Iirc, the original script made it more obvious that Odin wanted Loki to let go. I had not noticed the slipping before... thought they had made it more of "Loki lets go due to rejection and breakdown."

A reminder that Loki kept slipping the entire time, Odin just waited for him to let go. Also, do you know how sharp crystal shards are?

LOKI SPOILERS!!!

SO ITS A TREE RIGHT???

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Norse Mythology, there is a tree called Yggdrasil. Now I’m not super familiar with it but it’s generally known as the Tree of Life that houses all the nine realms and every living soul, and is incredibly closely associated with Odin. THIS. IS DRIVING ME CRAZY.

I’m not very knowledgeable on this topic so feel free to add or correct me lmao-

AU where Odin never got secretly deposed by Loki in disguise and goes wild in his grief and puts on the Loki play and stuff anyways and Loki finally makes it back to Asgard after years in secret alive-ness only to find a giant statue of himself and his father crying while watching a version of his life story and feels like seventy different kinds of what the actual f-

I know it's not in the movie, only in the script, but I think about this a lot (And if people get to act like Throg is MCU cannon bc I just saw that and it annoyed me, I can indulge in this vibe-based post). It positions Loki as a royal advisor rather than a prince. It's just so weird to have the spare as a royal advisor (with all the risks of fratricide), and it suggests Loki was treated very differently than Thor. A post I re-blogged made me think about this again. And the W4 expect and depend on Loki to talk Thor out of things while also perceiving him as distrustful for that same dependence and proximity to Thor. Not to mention the disbelief everyone seems to have over Loki getting the throne when Thor's away ( Sif was about to attack him but was held back from doing so; got away scot-free; and like that's FAR from the equivalent of "flogged for looking at Loki the wrong way"). He's never publicly announced (which makes his claim shakier and opens him up to suspicion), and that Frigga acts like Loki will just hand over the throne to Thor when he comes back.

It's funny how Loki left Odin in a nursing home. Partly he didn't want to take care of him and he put a spell on him so he wouldn't run away, but on the other hand he knew how to find a place where they would take care of his elderly father. Loki, despite being a villain, is quite considerate towards other people.

I don't think he'd go like "I want to adopt one day", but I see adoption as the only way MCU!Loki would willingly have children post-T1 (and the cycle of dysfunctional adoptive parents goes on!!! Which would have been interesting... and he teased at it in T:TDW when calling Odin out...). The fact that he used it to call Odin out implies he is wary about motives behind adoption. Though if he found an abandoned child, I think it's possible he'd legitimately grow to care for them.

He discovered recently he's from an enemy realm of a species he viewed as monstrous, and I think it left him with a fucked up relationship to his body. So to have him willingly have children, he'd have to work through a lot of his issues first and it's therefore more unlikely than adoption.

But the myths! This is strictly about MCU!Loki, and it also refers to post-T1 events.

What do you think are Loki’s own thoughts/opinions on adoption?

Thor, walking into the room: I AM THOR, SON OF ODIN-

Tony: You only went to the bathroom, you don’t have to say it every time.

Thor: I AM THOR, SON OF ODIN. I HAVE BROKEN THE THING YOU CALL A TOILET!

Tony: You could’ve started with that!

Lol sharing because a mutual would have so much fun with these tags about Thor being cursed.

explained to someone my GREAT idea of fic where Regent Frigga murders Odin and then rules through her sons, and how this cannot ever be written because such a move would be way too bold and decisive for a woman destined to get fridged in the second movie :(

Thought of some ideas for Marvel What If, of episodes I wish we could've gotten

What if Thor, Loki and Hela grew up together

What if Pietro lived

What if Ultron never malfunctioned

What if Hulk took over completely

What if Captain America was found

What if The Punisher helped Daredevil and Elektra kill the Hand(AS WAS FUCKING ADVERTISED YOU LYING FUCKS)

What if The Eternals intervened

What if…Okoye took the heart-shaped herb?

What if…Maria Rambeau was Captain Marvel?

What if…Natasha Romanoff survived Vormir?

What if Thor, Hulk and The Defenders/Punisher were in Civil War and The Defenders appeared in Endgame

What if Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. actually mattered to the MCU aka appearing in AOU, Civil War, Infinity War and appearing in the final battle in Endgame

What If Doctor Strange Had Been a Disciple of Dormammu?

What If Spider-Man Had Stopped the Burglar Who Killed His Uncle?

What if Aunt May and Uncle Ben both died and Peter was taken in by JJ Jameson?

What if Mary Jane-Watson was bit by the radioactive spider and became Spider-Woman?

What if the Avengers formed in WWII(Captain America, Howard as Iron Man, Peggy Carter, Dottie Underwood as Black Widow Odin and T'Chaka as Black Panther)
