I am Lokitty, of Catgard, and I am burdened with glorious purrrpose.

This windowsill pleases me. 

YOU GIVE UP THIS CATNIP DREAM! YOU COME HOME!

AND HE NEVER KNEW THAT HE WAS ADOPTED?!

SCREAMS

I DO WHAT I WANT, THORGI!

“If you were really here,” Thor says with a half-smile, “I’d hug you.”

He tossed the wine stopper at Loki, fully expecting it to sail right through. Instead, to his astonishment, Loki reached up and gracefully plucked the stopper out of the air.

He stared. Loki smiled.

“I’m here,” he said, and despite the deliberately casual air, there was something tentative about his voice.

Thor rose up and was halfway across the room in one motion. Loki didn’t meet him halfway – quite – but he took one tiny step forward and for Loki, that tiny step meant a lot. Thor engulfed him in a bear hug and, after a minute, Loki returned the embrace.

For a long moment they stood there, locked in the embrace, as Thor tried to come to grips with the fact that he hadn’t lost all of his family, after all.

Then – “Loki,” Thor said, shifting uncomfortably. The pinching sensation didn’t let up, and what he’d taken at first to be the buckles on Loki’s armor, ow. “Loki, are you stabbing me?!”

“Sorry,” Loki said, not removing his dagger from between Thor’s ribs. “Habit.”

I loved Thor Ragnanok and I enjoyed almost every scene and Thor and Loki together. But you are right. Thor electrocuting Loki left bad taste in my mouth. I do not defend Loki´s betrayal but Thor using that device on him didn´t sit well with me. It seemed out of character somehow for Thor (he should punch him, chain him etc.) If anyone other electrocuted Loki I wouldn´t be so upset by it. But Thor actually doing it is bad.

I completely agree with you, anon. It’s not that Loki is an innocent flower who doesn’t deserve such treatment. Or even that i blame Thor for taking out some of his anger on him. But the way it happened…yeah, it just felt out of character for Thor and it made me feel weird.

I guess we can comfort ourselves with the fact that Thor fully expected Loki to find his way out of the situation and come do the right thing (he just says “you’re late” when Loki shows up in Asgard, he’s not surprised at all to see him). Not saying that makes it all better. But he does, at least, show he’s still got some kind of faith in his brother, even if he shows it in an odd way.

Maybe it shows that Thor has become callous enough to rule? No longer so concerned about how the sacrifice and brutality changes you? I mean, I assumed he thought Loki would find a way to get himself out (though did he consider what would have happened if Topaz had been the first person to come along…?), but he didn’t know how long it would take for someone to come along and turn off the device. I got into an argument with someone who insisted it was fine because Thor had had the device used on him several times already. And I’m like, yeah, for a few seconds at a time. There’s something kind of different about letting someone undergo it for several minutes continuously.

I’d like to think that Thor wasn’t completely certain Loki would show up – certain he would get himself out of the electrocution situation, yes, but not completely certain Loki would come back. Otherwise, it seems too much like his show of indifference was a matter of manipulating Loki into doing what he wanted rather than giving him a chance to redeem himself.
