Within the Loki series, taken out of who Loki was in phases 1-3, Lokius is seriously growing on me.
Loki and Mobius have a great bond, built on support and understanding.
Tumblr media
Sylki is selfcest, Loki x Loki. We won't be missing out on anything. (In fact, I think it'd be for the best). I can easily see this going on the romance route.
But from what I remember, I wouldn't call it queerbaiting. Nor would I cite it as a reason to ship them.
My reason is good mlm representation from Disney.
There are a lot of straight couples in the MCU. (Almost) Every main hero is in some heterosexual relationship, Loki included.
Tumblr media
And that's not even all the relationships, there are more.
But in the LGBTQ+ department... uh.. I think it was mentioned that Valkyrie had a girlfriend... uh... America Chavez had a pride pin... and Loki:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wow!! How brave!! That is trurly MAGNIFICENT!! Cynicism aside, I'm sure the writers cared for the representation. I don't know them. But in the context of the MCU doing the bare minimum, it's icky.
One might argue that Loki is bisexual, therefore it's biphobic to suggest that he has to be in a gay relationship in order to be bi enough. Let me be clear, you are bi enough regardless of who you date.
However, as a bisexual person myself, I strongly disagree. The MCU has been giving us nothing but crumbs. Disney doesn't give a fuck about good representation. They want to attract queer wallets, but still keep it short enough to delete the scene for Russia and China. Us queers deserve better.
There was an opportunity to break out of this pattern, to give us an exploration of a queer experience. But we weren't given that. Time and time again, we aren't given that. And I fundamentally reject the notion that it's biphobic to criticize them for it.
Lokius could have been the MCU's first healthy queer relationship of a main character that is given an arc. I'm rooting for them all the way.

Remember when long time Steve's fans critisized his ending in Endgame (I hated it too and Im not even his fan) and newbies told them
"Youre just mad Stucky hasnt become canon"
Ehm no. This had nothing to do with Bucky.
Its the same when we long time Loki fans critisize Loki series and newbies who never liked him before say
"You're just mad he wasnt the star of the series"
Ehm....he should have been! The show was literally called Loki & it wouldnt exist if it wasnt for Tom.
In both cases newbies try to silence long time fans who have followed the character's journey for years, before these newbies even knew MCU existed

Loki series episode 3 and 4...
First of... damn I'm tired. Rough year(s) at work... and life is really showing today.
I so hoped to be entertained. Instead I get to see my comfort character getting beaten, tortured and thrown around in every episode. Not to mention he is made to look weak and a complete fool. At first I could understand his weakness, being just smashed by the Avengers but... episode 2 begun with him running after Mobius like a lost, frightened puppy. Worst is that you can see Loki knows he is going to get hurt and looks like he really can't take it any more.
Then in episode 3... It's like he had an IQ of 200 in the movies and it's been pruned to his shoe size. I have to say when Tom Hiddleston smiles and you look at those cheekbones oh so narrow... *sigh* you can fool youself and think it's just an act but...
Oh...
E 4 was the worst. Torture just continues. Loki looks like he doesn't give a damn, that he is bored... or just sad... I am not critisizing Tom's acting, he is awsome... but the writers... There really is nothing amusing about watching a depressed person get tortured. And him being alone makes it worse. He has no one he can trust, not even Sylvie... It's unbalanced. I just... I have no words.
Or maybe I do. I just have too many.
Narcissist. Loki. Fuck.
And no. Not a narcissist Loki is going to finally fuck himself.
Just...
He is insane, he is bad, he is starved for affection, he wants people to notice him... He is not a narcissist! He has empathy! He loves everyone BUT himself... Him loving Sylvie is actually an improvement if you think it from that point of view. He learned to love himself just not "himself".
Being a victim of a narcissist myself I have to say this offends me... like a dagger it cuts deep. People should be made aware what narcissists are, not fed these false examples of them. There is good in Loki. There is nothing good in a narcissist! Not a thing! If you have or get a narcissist in you life just... fucking run!
Loki can change. A narcissist cannot. There is absolutely no redemption for a narcissist. All they touch for too long will turn into a bleeding mess.
But unlike daggers narcissist aren't useful or beautiful. You cannot see your reflection from them and you absolutely cannot wield them... for long anyway.
What hurts maybe the most is that Loki is too human. He behaves from e 1 to 4 like a person whose been a victim of a narcissist for too long. And you know what else narcissists can do?
Have a narcissist is your life and at one point you will tell yourself that you are one.
Tumblr media
And you will propably never stop doubting that. To this day there still are times... a lot of times when I tell myself that I am one. I am not. My granny is one... and also a psychopath. Yay... We didn't see that until it was too late for... oh, so many.
A narcissist would never admit being one. They would never even consider it a possibility. That would require empathy and ability to see things from other people's perspective. Also it would/should lessen their sense of selfworth.
Loki is not a narcissist. Now Odin could be. Thanos could be. But Loki isn't for his actions thrive from love or the lack of it. He loves... but not himself. And all Loki wants is to be loved back. "Loved back" are keywords here. Next time you need to figure out if someone is a narcissist use that. A narcissist wants to be loved but cannot return that love. They can pretend but... it won't be real. Your love is the dagger they will turn against you and the wounds it will cause are not imaginary.
Tumblr media
This is what narcissists do to people. A powerful Loki ends up kneeling, forgets he has over 1000 years worth of training in magic and combat arts, that he physically can overpower humans with his little finger or just by sitting on them... for he is too broken and tired to care anymore.

Ive read Broken crown like 1000 times. I know it word by word. Best fanfic ever written. You are describing Loki as good as noone before. And even when he shows his soft side or fear or he is gentle towards reader,its never rushed, its never out of character, its still Loki. The only critisism i have,well,its more a wish🙂, is that the reader doesnt put one drop of that liquid into her morning tea to avoid pregnancy, i would so love to see how you'd write a dad Loki. 😉 They deserve to be happy
WOW! To be honest “Best Fanfic Ever Written” is quite a title, and that fact you would ever put me in that category is actually INSANE. Seriously, thank you so much. this is so amazing and incredible. I don’t know how I can have readers as kind as you. 
As for your wish... well, I can’t give anything away but maybe I’ll throw out a small drabble with dadki. I do love a good dadki scene. 
Tumblr media
Also... “WORD FOR WORD” I mean... I don’t even know it word for word, so the fact that you do. Holy mother of pearl. Thank you so much.

In Loki S2 EP2 before Loki uses magic and does some cool shit, there was a chase. Where Loki's... running. The God of Mischief just kinda running after this normal dude. It was so goofy💀

Haven't heard anyone say this, but LokiS2E2 is also a McDonald's commercial. It was so distracting💀

Are you kidding me💀
Maybe it'll be explained in the next episode or whatever. If that's the case I'll take it back.
Everyone were sent back to thejr original timelines. Except the Lokis.
Why? Why is that?
Why wasn't Sylvie sent to her ORIGINAL timeline? Why wasn't Loki sent to right back to New York?
Because that would disrupt the show? Because plot? Because reasons?

I hear on and on that shit about how Loki changed in series and grew and developed coinscience and heart and that he is no longer a villain...
Why is noone talking about Sylvie not changing at all and killing Kang and remaining the same murderer she was in the first episode?
Oh wait. No critisism of Mary Sue is allowed.
Entire show writers talk about Loki's past and future crimes.
Noone talks about ANY OF HER crimes.
