odin is like “when thor was born the sun shone bright upon his beautiful face. i found loki on the sidewalk outside a taco bell”
Oðinn spake:
Bright the sun shone | at the time of Þor’s birth, And bathed his count’nance fair. Loki, wolf-father, | the trickster, the liar, I found on the cold pavement While returning in glory | from a grand hunt For a 3 AM quesadilla.
Take a moment to look at The Dark World from Odin’s point of view
The last time Odin saw his son, he watched him trying to kill himself and dying, as he believed
So now imagine seeing your son after this incident, knowing only a part of what happened while you thought he’s dead but never bothering to ask, and imagine still having the stomach to tell your kid that he wasn’t supposed to live. To the same child you saved, raised and then watched committing suicide. Let that sink in.
Ugh this kills me because it looks like up until this point Loki still considered himself Loki Odinson. I think in his mind it was much preferable to be Loki, son of Odin, revered leader of the Nine Realms than Loki, son of Laufey, frost giant and monster.
So basically Odin is not only denouncing him but calling (and confirming in his mind) him a monster as well.
AND ODIN TAKES AWAY HIS MOMMA TOO! Marvel you better not mess with Frigga or I swear I’m gonna flay someone one!
Oh shit… this is the prelude comic that got turned into the first scene of TDW. I don’t think I’d ever actually read it. This version of Odin is so much worse than what we saw in the movie, which was pretty fucking bad.
