Because I'm seeing way too many of y'all bend over backwards to explain to Sylkie antis that Sylkie isn't """"selfcest""""

STOP. STOP IT.

Besides the fact that selfcest is not real and is in no way analogous to real world abuse or harm, it wouldn't matter even if it were. This post is not about rehashing that disk horse, though. This post is to say that YEAH IT'S WEIRD, LOKI AND SYLVIE FALLING IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER IS DEFINITELY WEIRD. We have had Mobius and Brad/X5 both remark on it, in fact. A romantic relationship between 2 variants of the same person from different timelines is still pretty significantly fucking weird.

AND THAT'S OK

That's why I like Sylkie, godfuckingdammit. I could not have come up with the concept if I tried, and if it had just been explained to me I would throw my hands in the air in frustration (while I certainly have enjoyed plenty of Loki shipfics, at the end of the day I don't really ship him with anyone and I violently hated the idea of him getting a canon love interest). But Tom and Sophia sold me on it with their frankly insane chemistry, and I honestly think they're the only canon Loki pairing I could ever accept, because the relationship itself mirrors Loki perfectly: kinda fucked up, weird and deviant. It's not a fairytale romance. They don't fix each other. They had every reason to hide their feelings and not trust each other, but they still did. AND THEN THEY STILL FUCKED IT UP AND HURT EACH OTHER, because turns out they have opposing ideologies re: the multiverse and how to save it (and what it needs saving from).

Sylkie shippers, you don't need to pander or justify yourselves to self righteous moralizing biphobic assholes. You just don't! Own the weirdness that is Sylkie! I am begging you to stop trying to prove that there's nothing wrong with Sylkie, and recognize that the fucked upness is the whole entire goddamn point.

(Addendum for clarification: this does not mean that I think Loki and Sylvie can't still have a healthy and balanced relationship. They can! I very very very much want them to! But they are both 15 different kinds of damaged and they are so, so not there yet. It's about the journey, not the destination 💚)

MCU shouldn’t have gone with a ‘you’re stronger than you realized’ type plot for Loki that’s rubbish instead they should have gone for the ‘yeah no sorry I don’t know what I’m capable of you may wonder why but it’s because I’ve been exhausted this whole time yeah just not functioning right between the sleep issues the torture and the making sure Thor stays alive and that last ones been going on for a long time now’

“what do you really want?”

just say your boyfriend you gay ass what is this “my friends” bullshit

“it’s about who”

and whoooose voice did you hear during that sequence???

yeah, i thought so

i made something guys!!! look!! (im totaly not deranged and so normal about loki series)

last ep and loki's final words broke me and i wanted to make this since then. this parallel came up to me immediatly when i saw new tva posters and i've never been the same. but finally im finished! anyway lokius nation stay winning love youuuu

I want to say a big thank you to everyone who is behind this series. they did a great job.

the loki show is good but only when you completely separate it from the overall mcu and enjoy it only as enrichment for tom hiddleston

re: the loki show i still can't think about "but without them where do i belong" without crumbling to the floor. he's been friends with mobius and b-15 and casey and ouroboros for like two weeks and he's so so so desperate to hold on to them anyway. my dude is so lonely i want to COMBUST. i want to hug him SO fucking badly dude. god. fuck

Been a while since I’ve drawn Loki ( aka Frosty )

「Hair / Yearning」- for the sylki kisses collab  happy sylki kiss anniversary!!

About the ‘pie scene’ and the ‘Asgard salad scene’: Loki didn’t go to New York because he was ‘angry,’ he did so because 1. He tried to commit suicide when he fell off the bifrost bridge and 2. Thanos tortured him and gave him the sceptre with the Mind Stone in it which ‘influenced him’ making him extra ‘evil!’ I know he was trying to ‘comfort’ Mobius but he even made light of Asgard being destroyed in season 1 which *SUCKS!* Let alone when he jokingly said in Ragnarok that he ‘let go.’ Is that just a coping mechanism for him because we *did* see that close up of his eyes glistening when he read the file that said ‘Destruction of Asgard Class 7 Apocalypse, Total planetary destruction.. 🤷‍♀️

Apparently the movie The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes is about an explicitly gay Sherlock and Watson.

Wow! How groundbreaking! And when was this movie made, you ask??

1970.

Which means Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss had all our asses pining, begging for a gay romance with Sherlock and Watson from the years 2010-2017 -- with the creators and distributors acting like it would simply be IMPOSSIBLE for Sherlock to be gay, like we just weren't THERE yet as a society -- All this happened....

40 years after A GAY SHERLOCK HOLMES HAD ALREADY BEEN PORTRAYED ONSCREEN.

It's giving Russell T. Davies calling the Loki show a "ridiculous, cowardly, craven gesture" for pretending to be progressive with its pathetic queer representation in 2023, while this man was making the Doctor kiss men in 2005!!!! And making other gay films and TV since the 90s at least!

Don't be fooled just because homophobic mega-corporations like Disney and homophobic men-who-have-mega-never-sexually-satisfied-their-wives like Moffat act like queer rep is something people just aren't ready for. We are further ahead than they want us to know. We deserve better rep all around, and we have decades of proof showing that this is not a NEW thing we are demanding.

Am I enjoying the Loki show? Yes, definitely. Does it make sense? Perhaps not in a conventional sense.

But let me tell you, I was watching s2e5 with my parents and Loki goes "we can rewrite the story" and the episode ended and I closed the browser window to reveal my desktop background

Which is comic Loki from the Agent of Asgard comics saying "let's write a different story"

(I love that arc, very power-of-friendship satisfying!)

I was so pleased as to be absolutely unhinged.

Loki in season 2 saying that he did New York because he was soooo angry with his father and brother that he let his emotions get the better of him.......

i had this opinion in 2017 when ragnarok first came out and ill have it now: its funnier for everyone when loki is being raced like a funny horse one bad day away from being sent to the glue factory. more pratfalls. now
