Okay I have to get this out of my system. No spoilers, promise. I was watching Thor the Dark World the other day, prepping for Ragnarok and when Thor left Loki on Svartalfheim he was presumed to be dead. So I started thinking about all the theories that came about. Did he die, or did he fake it or plan it. Well, I think the answer could be very simple. Loki thought he was on his way his way out and had one moment of sincerity with Thor just before he passes out and takes a really nice well earned nap while his body healed.
Now the poor guard who discovered him, that guy, he thought Loki was dead too. Probably poked him with a spear and startled Loki awake. Startled, by the guard, Loki straight up slays the man on accident. That poor guard.
Oh shit he killed an innocent man and Thor is no where to be found.
I jumped ship from Tumblr and this is where I landed. I'm a philosophy postdoc (INTJ, she/her) with a serious thing for Tom Hiddleston as Loki. Sometimes I even write fanfiction about it. Mostly Loki and Thor/Loki (sometimes NSFW), some miscellaneous Hiddles, MCU (Steve/Tony or "Superhusbands" is my secondary ship), occasional Cherik, Game of Thrones, LOTR, Whedonverse... whatever catches my fancy, really.
