Summary: Loki finds Sylvie working in McDonald's, joining her on her lunch break, spending time with her after searching for her for so long.

Warnings: None

------------------------------

Loki's eyes instantly began to tear up upon seeing Sylvie after all this time. He never expected to find her working at McDonald's of all places, being the first face the customers see, the red and white striped uniform with a name tag pinned to her chest made her look almost human. Far from the leathers and cape he was used to.

Mobius pat's Loki on his back for support, in return Loki slightly nodded his head in gesture of thanks, then he took a deep breath before slowly and purposely approaching the service counter. Sylvie's smile slipped from her lips as he approached after her last customer she served stepped aside waiting for their order.

"Hi." Loki says softly, his eyes still teary and hopeful too. He hopes she doesn't run, if she did, he knows it would hurt him deeply.

Sylvie looks over his shoulder at Mobius, who just gives her a small wave and smile, before he takes a seat at one of the nearby tables. Then Sylvie's gaze is back on Loki. "I'm just going on my break!" Sylvie announces to the other employees, as she grabs her knee length cardigan, which causes Loki to sigh heavily thinking she's going to duck out on him. Instead Sylvie grabs some food, bags it up and fills up two cups of Coke, then she bumps into his arm on her way out as if inviting him to follow her.

Loki didn't have to be asked twice, but he had to check in with Mobius first, he looked towards him with puppy dog eyes. Mobius mouthed, "go get her." Loki smiled at that before he left the fast food restaurant to catch up with Sylvie in the parking lot.

He found Sylvie sitting on the back of a green truck with the brown paper bag beside her as she began to unpack one of the boxes, before she held it out to Loki once he was close enough, and he graciously accepted it. He hesitated a moment before he sat down on the back of the truck too, the brown paper bag with the big yellow m on the side was all that separated them. He carefully watched Sylvie as she opened a second box that she'd taken out of the bag. Watching her take the first bite, before he opened the box she handed him, and he too then began to eat.

They ate in silence. A silence that was a little awkward initially, but it soon turned into a peaceful moment between the pair. The slight breeze past their faces and through their hair, the air cool and the sky a little cloudy, yet not dark. It was decent enough.

It took Loki half way through his Big Mac to move the brown paper bag out of the way, placing it further back, catching Sylvie's gaze briefly in the process. He then scooted closer towards her, their shoulders then touched, and he gave her a soft smile. Deep down he knows she's worried about what he will say about being pushed through the Time Door, except for the time being he didn't want to talk about it, nor about what she did to Kang. He just wanted to enjoy this moment, being able to spend time with her, with his Sylvie. Even if it will take time for her to get where he is emotionally and physically, he will wait, he will wait a lifetime for her.

You know if they really wanted to do the whole ridiculous “learning self love via dating a variant of yourself” thing, the most effective way to do it would’ve been for Loki to fall in love with a frost giant version of him.

Loki 1.02 | The Variant

[mydarkqueen-24]

*Sylvie trying to flirt with the female variant of Mobius*

Sylvie: So? Come here very often?

F.Mobius: Well actua——

Sylvie: cause I’ll gladly take you around.

F.Mobius: oh..?

*Meanwhile in the distance*

Mobius: what is she doing?

Loki: I think trying to flirt..

Mobius:

Mobius: that’s flirting?

[catwouthats]

For all y’all pointing out that Loki took the being Mobius’ pet thing a little too seriously

I hope you realize and know the overlap between kink and queer coded.

Those bitches are queer coded.

Signs that Sylvie is not from the Nine Realms from a timeline ( and I REFUSE to acknowledge her as such ) :

. No quasi shakespearan accent

. Her armors are basically knock offs in comparison to the gorgeous House of Buri armors

. NO. BRAIDS. ON. HER. HAIR. If she really have been on the run for decades and killing many of her pursuers, and she is actually from the Nine Realms, she would have VERY COMPLICATED BRAIDS by the time she first met Loki in person. NOT SOME KIND OF CURLY MULLET WITH NO FUCKING BRAIDS

. Choosing to work at McDonalds across SEVERAL TIMELINES instead of trying to play a Game of Thrones like Loki may have done. YOU'RE JOKING

. ABSOLUTELY no recollection or connection to a Nordic heritage or such

. ABSOLUTELY NO recollection of Frigga ( who played SUCH AN IMPORTANT ROLE TO LOKI'S UPBRINGING IN MCU )

Somebody can say all they want how Sylvie is a Loki variant and was a Princess of Asgard. These points are just some of the reasons why I REFUSE to accept her as a Laufeydottir/Odinsdottir, or from the Nine Realms, for the matter

I'm sorry I tried to accept it even when someone said it was ' canon. '

But I can't

I just can't

This is one of the VERY few times that I absolutely refuse to accept an info that is ' canon " or smth

TVA #1 by Katharyn Blair and Pere Pérez. Cover by Pepe Larraz. Variant cover by Humberto Ramos. Out in December.

"FOR ALL TIMES, ALWAYS! The Time Variance Authority has long watched over the timeline, protecting it from dangerous variations that could cause the end of EVERYTHING. Now, as the organization begins to expand its tolerance of variants, it's enlisted some new recruits from timelines that have been wiped from existence: Captain Peggy Carter, Super-Soldier of her world; Gambit, despondent and aimless from the loss of his lady love; and… this can't be right… Spider-Gwen?!? Has her world been destroyed?!? Writer Katharyn Blair (LOKI Season Two) and artist Pere Pérez (CARNAGE, SPIDER-WOMAN) bring a touch of cinematic flair to the bureaucracy at the end of time!"

Jet-Skiing through identity: A deep dive into Mobius M. Mobius (part 4)🛥️

"And I'm yours but you're not mine" (Say Don't Go)

That's Mobius in season 1, because from all we know, he was the one to fall first. A fall that, just like domino pieces, results in a beautiful union of...well, everything.

But now, in season 2, his love is finally reciprocated. He showed Loki something they hadn't seen in themselves. And not only he loved them, but proved to Loki why they're deserving of that love as well. And now that he is finally appreciated and seen by the last person he was expecting, he also gets the insight he never knew he was looking for. This is like always running from something right into the chasm, until someone takes your hand and makes you stop. Even if it means facing your fears.

Open first episode of season 2, when the entire Loki legion was on the verge of a heart attack waiting to see what will happen. (That's actually me, I think I'm not alone). Those were crazy times indeed. Now, to our Mobius: a relative present version of him, not the one that didn't recognize Loki. That was scary. His first line is:

<<Hey, everything you've been doing is wrong, and all your gods are dead. How are people gonna take that?>>

I interpret this as his own thoughts and feelings projected on the collective. It's true for them, but it's relatable to Mobius.

And after all, why would everyone at the TVA believe all this time? The same reason as why we do it: we want to: that's where it all starts. And for someone like Mobius, who didn't believe in himself, it was much more logical to believe in the time gods. Putting the blame on fate takes the burden off your shoulders. But no burden, no glory. Few of them had guts to admit. But even indirectly, Mobius did (and has been for a while).

Backing the argument that he cares about Loki, and that he fell first, his reaction to hearing his name from Casey is immaculate.

He immediately tries to figure out a way to locate him. He might take a more "slow, deliberate approach", but not when he knows people he cares about are in danger. Not when he can still help.

Then, to X-5's attempt to make him feel bad about his spot on the original timeline, he responds with a neutral approach, not letting such things get to him. He even goes to explaining why jet-skis are so cool. This is something that shows how passionate Mobius can be about the things he likes. I don't think he would do this if he wouldn't be provoked in some sort of way, because the total absence of interest from others can kill a spark pretty quick. But he doesn't let it go just because no one around him sees jet-skis as important as he does. I love him for it.

His pure care for Loki and the way he comforts them the best he can is also very important in this episode. Mobius does his best to calm Loki down, trying to see the situation from an outside point of view so it can be solved efficiently. He's there, he doesn't let Loki down, and we know he would never; "Okay, you wanted time to think, so let's think." - as in let's think together, you're not alone.

Also, when Loki rushes to find Sylvie so they can fix what is happening, Mobius slows him down. He knows Loki wouldn't take the time to take care of themselves, so he does it for him, knowing exactly how much to insist, and that the timeslipping can't be let out if control for a long while.

Another trait resulting from the episode is sort of a disapproval avoidance, from the convo with O.B. Mobius obviously had his memory wiped and doesn't remember him, but doesn't admit it: it could hurt this nice guy and make him look like a fool (it wouldn't, really. he didn't have to worry abt it).

Then, at the end of the episode, this care (LOVE!!!) he carries for Loki is once again is highlighted:

Because, even at the risk of losing his skin (and, jokes aside, losing his life), Mobius still waits over the limit for Loki to make it back. What was I saying about believing? Even if the gods of the TVA are dead, the God of Mischief isn't. And Mobius always believed in him.

[sunflowerdigs]

The thing to me is, if you don't think that Mobius is a good love interest for Loki, then I'm really stumped as to who would be a better candidate for that role in his life.

Mobius studied Loki's entire life, saw every single bad thing that Loki had ever done, and he didn't see a villain despite the amount of death and destruction that Loki has caused. He saw a very lonely person with incredible potential/power struggling to find his place and his purpose. He liked the Loki that attacked New York, he felt like he had range. Like...what else could any potential love interest for Loki do that would top seeing and understanding him so profoundly?

To me, it's just like...if not Mobius, who? Sylvie is nowhere near as invested in a relationship with Loki as Mobius is. No one else both genuinely cares about Loki in the way that Mobius does or is able to communicate and work with him as well. So, I guess I just wonder...what else does there need to be in a love interest? What part of the role does Mobius not fulfill, what is he missing? And who would fulfill the role better than he would? Who is understanding and caring for Loki better than he is? Who would make Loki happier? I've literally never seen Loki smile as often or as bright as he does with Mobius so...what else is there?

Like, you're not going to get a better love story for Loki specifically. Heck, I question whether a better love story exists for most characters. I love their friendship, obviously, and if it were to remain a friendship it wouldn't hurt the canon in any way. It just seems to me like if Loki is going to have a love interest ever (which he seems to want)...why create someone new when Mobius is right there performing basically every function that you could ask for in a love interest for Loki? At this point in his story, whose relationship with him could be more profound? It wouldn't be right for him to fall in love with someone else while his relationship with Mobius remained his most important, which I think it inevitably would.

[here-on-occasion]

It's so great how Loki and Sylvie’s relationship went from gender envy to admiration to affection in the first series and then there wasn't a series 2

[renegadesstuff]

He's been obsessed with her since day 1 😍

[feral-sylki]

Thinking about the fact that Sylvie helps Loki stay true to himself in the finale. His variant, his other self, his love. When he comes to her, with the responsibility for the future heavy on his shoulders, thinking all he’ll be able to preserve is a narrow timeline overlooked by a dominating regime, thinking he’ll have to kill her just for that, he looks bent. He looks heavy. He looks defeated. And Sylvie doesn’t let him settle for it. Her fire and defiance in the face of almost utter defeat remind him of his own. And while he was now willing to take the ultimate responsibility, thanks to Mobius, he still wasn’t happy with the choice before him, being mischievous and wild himself. And Sylvie gives him the confidence and the determination he needed, to not allow his choices to be dictated to him by someone else, and to fight for something better

Headcanon

President Loki, just like Sylvie, has the power to enchant people, but beyond that he also has the power to create fictitious scenarios in people's heads, which Sylvie apparently cannot do, as she told B-15 that she was unable to create false memories. If Sylvie is The Enchantress, in my book President Loki is The Enchanter.

I was inspired by the scene in Season 1 when in the Void Loki managed to unlock the same ability to enchant as Sylvie, helping her to enchant Alioth.

[mydarkqueen-24]

Sylvie: I just don’t understand.. what went wrong?

Loki: I think asserting your dominance on her is not the way.. to flirt.

Sylvie: you did it!

Loki: i did NOT assert my dominance on Mobius!

Sylvie: right.. it was the other way around.

Loki:

Loki: hey!

Meanwhile-

F.Mobius: she was very demanding..

Mobius: She usually is..

F.Mobius: But she’s cute I like her.

Mobius:

Mobius: oh..

[worstloki]

Why on Earth they named Mobius 'Don' I am 100% sure it's Donald. I hate it here. Loki knows only one Don and its Donald Blake 💀

THOR?!
