daisyquake:

can we just talk about how tessa thompson is doing the actual most for valkyrie???

apparently she insisted on valkyrie being bisexual (because of brunnhilde’s relationship with a woman in the comics!!!) and convinced waititi to shoot a glimpse of a woman walking out of valkyrie’s bedroom!!! but sadly (yet not surprisingly) it was cut

and (spoilers!!!!) the scene where one of her fellow valkyries is slain in front of her by hela??? according to tessa that woman was valkyrie’s lover!!!

the movie barely gave us anything but tessa tried so hard!!! and she wants to keep trying!!! tessa thompson is a GIFT and we do not deserve her

I’m pretty sure he did it to be an asshole, but it’s interesting that the consequence was to motivate Valkyrie to fight to save Asgard. Classic trickster narrative – the outcome is often completely opposite in moral valence from the intention…

Imagine tiny Thor and tiny Loki hanging up posters of the Valkyrie in their room, or pretending they’re part of the them. Imagine them with little winged hobby horses running around Frigga’s legs. Imagine them arguing about who has to be the monster. Imagine them daydreaming about how cool it would be to meet them.
