#series loki could never

It makes me so sad that we could have had these concepts for series Loki and yet

(by Wes Burt via twitter)

[loki-us]

Mobius’ unwavering belief in Loki throughout the series. I cannot reiterate enough how impactful and truly life-altering Mobius’ support and affection was to Loki. Mobius has always seen straight through him, right from the very start. Mobius has studied every single thing Loki has ever done, and probably every single thing most of his variants have ever done, and not once does Mobius falter in his belief that Loki can be good. This is probably the first time anyone besides his mother has ever told him he could be more, the first time that anyone cared enough to look past the walls and the facade Loki puts up. The first time anyone looked at him and said ‘I truly believe you can be anything. Even if you don’t believe it yourself.’

Mobius’ belief in Loki, his constant support and kindness, truly taught Loki the meaning of trust, friendship, love. In Mobius, he found someone to rely on, who would be patient with him, who would make him laugh and would never base his worth on the acquisition of a throne. Because Mobius never expected Loki to be a worthy king or a great prince or anything really, besides himself. And that was always good enough for Mobius.

That support, belief, and trust is the fundamental catalyst behind Loki’s growth and change throughout the series. By the end of season 2, the relationship he has built with Mobius and his friends is enough to give him the strength to save and eternally protect the entire multiverse. I cannot think of a greater example of a character redeeming themselves and finding their purpose through the power of the ones they love.

oh god it really is about change, isn't it? all of it. loki met mobius and they LET themselves change bc they finally had someone who saw the good in them and trusted them with UNSHAKABLE certainty no matter fucking what even after they BETRAYED him even if he was angry for a while he never actually stopped believing in them and believing that they could be good or whatever they wanted to be. that they could change and be it for the better. "it's never too late to change" and loki did change, they become far more mature and grounded and caring and maybe even soft but with changing came the understanding that being soft isn't a bad thing. that loving someone isn't weakness. and mobius changed too, he learned to want things for himself and try to look beyond what he already has. they changed each other SO throughoutly and they've changed together and loki is seeing it, they're finally fucking seeing it, otherwise WHY else bring up thor and jane and love CHANGING people for the better. i think they're seeing their past thinking in sylvie and trying to show her that loving doesn't make you weak infact it makes you stronger and better and they know that because they HAVE found that love in mobius. mobius brought hope and kindness into their life and with that, completely changed them as person, just like jane did with thor.

and i may be risking a lot with this post but i'll be brave and say it: sophia calling loki and sylvie exes AND siblings in the same day is so funny to me... leave the poor woman alone and let her get that paycheck!

Remember when, at the very beginning of season 2, a lot of us had this theory in mind? About how Mobius decided to help, sort of rescue Loki in season 1 because he knew them before the memory erasure at the TVA?

Funny how that turned out to be true. Because he did know Loki. It's a nice circle, where they know each other for an undetermined while, then one of them doesn't.

Every time someone calls MCU Loki “God of Stories”, an angel loses its wings, plummets to the ground, and dies

I watched Avengers: Age of Ultron (apart from I skipped some overly long action sequences) and I am not sure so can someone tell me whether or not Tony Stark was the baddy in that film? Because about halfway through I was sure he was but then it was maybe just an evil robot after all and I am confused because either this film was surprisingly subversive or it was about robots hitting each other.

Okay but the reveal that not only were Ravonna and Mobius BOTH once hunters, but that they were partners????? Adds so so much depth to their relationship makes so much sense why a judge and an analyst would be so close. And that Mobius couldn't kill the child that would grow up to kill thousands so Ravonna made the hard call and did it in his place??? God that adds so much weight to earlier in the season where Ravonna spoke about how she's always made the tough choices so Mobius didn't have to😭

Truly EONS of friendship, being partners trusting each other having each other's backs cleaning up each others messes. A bond that lasted hundreds of years later even after they were professionally separated and Ravonna was promoted to judge and Mobius transferred to analysis. I just. NO FUCKING WONDER Ravonna felt so gd betrayed when Mobius got a new bestie and chose him over her. And no wonder even after Ravonna literally pruned Mobius in S1 he still wanted to try and work things out and mend bridges cause they've been through tough shit together before and after all this time they're basically each other's FAMILY and-

the moment when you realize an ai would've written a better larry show than mike waldron bc an ai would've been trained on previous loki content and thus, unlike mike, would've actually watched the films

[scintillatingshortgirl19]

ultimately something i think i'll just never get over re: the loki series is the fact that the time travel theme afforded so many opportunities to delve into the most core facets of loki's history and character (aka the things that formed the basis of literally every loki plotline and all his ~villainous deeds~) and allow him to finally reckon with that history - loki's jotun heritage, odin's manipulation/emotional abuse of both loki and thor, loki's suicide attempt, everything with thanos - and the creators were just. fundamentally and inexplicably not interested in any of that

[neyafromfrance95]

i think that what both s1 and s2 100% do establish is that loki is much more into sylvie than sylvie is into loki. he is both the one who fell first and the one who fell harder.

for sylvie, loki was a wonderful experience,

but for loki, sylvie was everything.

let's see, is mobius crying over a lost chance (his original timeline) or a lost chance (his love for loki)

[sheliesshattered]

that Yggdrasil reveal tho

[rycbarmerlin]

I'm sorry but the Loki recap just casually throwing in "it's adorable that you think you could possibly manipulate me" and SHOWING Loki adjusting Mobius' tie as if that scene hasn't had me in a chokehold for the last 2 and a bit years

[sylvies-kablooie]

love the thought of loki turning into a historical encyclopedia after watching all of time, always. also love the idea of him getting details from the infinite timelines mixed up every now and then.

"wait, is the sacred timeline the one where jfk served two terms or was that number 472?" he mumbles to himself while his friends stare at him in confusion. of course sylvie or mobius would have some idea and sigh deeply like "no, loki, in the sacred timeline he was shot in 1963 for being a mutant. dumbass."

Last night I finally had the time to act on my intense desire to rewatch Thor 1 after the Loki finale and I'm sick. I'm unwell. I'll never recover.
