Thor Script - Int. Vault - Day 54
“So I am nothing more than another stolen relic, locked up here till you might have use of me.”
I love how Loki already refers to the relics as stolen, and to himself as a prisoner. It shows just how trapped he feels in an Asgardian society that cannot stand him. The accusation of theft shows an awareness of Asgard’s flaws and that at this point he thinks more clearly on Asgardian wars and their outcomes. It also shows Loki thinks from the perspective of an outcast and rejected outsider. That experience he has had is only affirmed and solidified with his discovery that he is not Asgardian, and would never belong.
“You could have told me from the beginning, why didn’t you?”
“…to protect you from the truth.”
“Because I am the monster parents tell their children about at night?”
How was that twisting words? Odin had to protect Loki from the apparently awful truth that he is a frost giant. It requires protection because being a frost giant is a flaw, and makes one a monster. Odin thinks he is acting lovingly towards Loki because he gave this inferior creature a chance at being a superior one. He is too selfish to realize that is the deepest form of hatred and rejection.
I also love how Loki sees through Odin and his manipulation immediately. Odin has lost his grip on Loki in this scene and he collapses because things which he cannot control are a problem to him.
“Because no matter how much you claim to “love” me…“
Loki knows Odin is full of lies. Actions speak louder than words, and here Odin’s actions are really overshadowing his empty words. Unlike the gullibility shown in Ragnarok, where Loki seemed to care about and internalise Odin’s crumbs of “love” which consists of adding an extra “s” onto the word “son” while not even looking at him. When Loki is in character he doesn’t fall for these lies.
I was talking about this with a friend but a really interesting cultural shift over the last ohhhhhh ten years maybe is that many people in fandoms view themselves as stakeholders and not audience members. Because of that, they think that the fandom should be running things, or at least have an acknowledged say in how something is run. And every reminder that they are not in control, no matter how small, bothers them.
This has always existed to an extent but it used to be very siloed and only noticeably prevalent in certain fandoms and everyone else in fandom spaces generally agreed that it wasn’t healthy to act like that. Now it’s seemingly every fandom with an online presence and it’s all happening much more publicly than ye olde Trekkie forum.
I do think that the increase in access to creatives through social media, extended promotional cycles where you do a thousand interviews and all of them get clipped for instagram and tiktok, and an increase in entertainment and fandom aggregate social media accounts which keep people updated on all of those clips and every second of the creative process has had a big hand in creating this sense of ownership that audience members feel. It makes us feel like we’re on the team because we think we know so much. But we are not and we don’t.

its good to acknoweldge the hollowness of revenge but sometimes you really do just need a story about someone who gets hurt and then kills and kills and kills and kills their enemies. its cathartic, babey.
sometimes you will see a joke circulate within a fandom and at first it's all fun and games but then the slow and terrible realization starts to seep in that this will become in fact a widely-accepted way to read a specific situation between characters that were subject of said joke and there is nothing you can do about it but to watch the horrors unfold in real time
wails desperately and then goes back to doing fucjing whatever
wish ppl understood the power nowadays in not giving something attention. things today are so focused on attention and reaction and #memes that the best way to shut literally anything down is simply not give it exactly what it wants. like you arent going to own that bigot on twitter youre going to boost their original message whether thats your intent or not and you arent just playing with ai for shits and giggles you are giving it free learning and data. just stop engaging with things that dont deserve it
i hate gatekeeping but some of these rivals players genuinely need to be banned from talking about the characters unless they pick up a comic book
its hard being a loki main and hating lotis
I really love the meme of saying "___ mentioned" like yesss it's so awesome when people like something so much the mere acknowledgement of it brings them joy, keep mentioning keep mentioning !!
Mischaracterization getting so brutal I'm about to ask people for sources and citations on their wrong opinions
What is your source for the idea that he would fucking say that
fandom loves to see a unique and interesting story and go ah this would be great in my little boxes that make everything the same
oh :( that's fluff :( that's fluff of my torture character :(
it takes 8000 years to get a doctors appointment just for them to be like youre fat idk whats wrong with you and i hope you die
