After everything that happened in Ragnarok, imagine Thor hearing about Steve and Tony’s fight and being like “Really?! Thats why you all stopped working together?! Just get over it! I did! I’m still friends with Loki and he’s betrayed me three times since breakfast! This petty mortal shit is nothing!”
Loki: “Can confirm, poisoning his mead right now.”
Thor: “Ha! I’ve built up an immunity.”
Loki doesn’t betray Thor 3 times in one morning and Thor comes by like “ What hath saddened you my brother?”
Thor giving Loki opportunities to betray him because he’s worried, like “ah, I am not facing you, how inconvenient would it be if you stabbed me.” “i said, i REALLY hope you won’t stab me” “c’mon, no stab?”
I am sorry but you have Loki actually fighting with nothing and sill managing to bring down everyone and Thor having this huge ass hummer and you say Thor is stronger?
Honey strength is not just muscles
He’s using knives, but knives are only as good as it’s user so… it still stands.
he used ONE knife and still took down five or six elves. Don’t fuck with Loki.
And this is why I don’t really get along with fics that portray him as helpless if his magic is removed. Loki is a walking death machine; he will never be harmless.
He’s always armed, too. Like you know he’s ALWAYS got a knife tucked away somewhere. If he can’t physically hide one on his person, he’ll have one squirreled away in Hammerspace (lol) or wherever the fuck he pulls things from with magic. This man is a walking arsenal of tiny, easily hidden things that can kill you, and no one will convince me otherwise.
*clears throat* From the top:

(And in Asgard’s prison and right after Thor let him out? He was asking Thor to give him a weapon, “my dagger or something”. He may have no weapon there – I refuse to think that to be honest, for obvious reasons.
Let’s also mention his fighting style is like Mama Frigga’s; except she used sword in TDW, not daggers. But it still was flashy like Loki’s, the blade was boosted with magic. I like to think – and settled it as a fanon for my own Loki – he uses ice to cool it just before he strikes, thus the blade becomes white. Imagine being cut with an incredibly cold blade. The wound probably wouldn’t even bleed. Imagine being stabbed like that. You don’t even see the movement, he’s fast and aims for vital spots, mainly for the heart. Vein freezing ice immediately shuts down the heartbeat. Enemy is dead before they know it.
In this gif though, he uses two daggers. He’s stabbing with right hand, then left, then right again. It seems to me he doesn’t use magic here. I also have a fanon for that. In T1, he’s trying to get away from the Jötuns. He’s not driven, just wants to survive, so he kills fast. In TDW, this is the first fight after Frigga’s death. He’s not about to make death easy and quick for the dark elves.
everyone on earth gets to stan 1 irredeemable fictional murderboy with a
vaguely sad backstory. but you only get 1. if you exceed that limit the
cia takes you out. and thats how fandom discourse works.
