Pronouns: They/She/He • Agender • Bi • Cuban aand Nicaraguan • I literally just over analyze and/or theorize on here.

Can you guess what person I was gonna put that was a infamous leader of SHIELD in most of the Marvel comics but we didn't even get to see how they ran things? If so you get a green and purple colored cookie. :)

The Winner is: Coulson!

Kind of surprised, kind of not? I mean the guy is literally the only reason we got agents of SHIELD and we, arguably, have seen the most of his leadership. Still pretty cool!

Loki Season 2 Synopsis

"'Loki' Season 2 picks up in the aftermath of the shocking season finale when Loki finds himself in a battle for the soul of the Time Variance Authority. Along with Mobius, Hunter B-15 and a team of new and returning characters, Loki navigates an ever-expanding and increasingly dangerous multiverse in search of Sylvie, Judge Renslayer, Miss Minutes and the truth of what it means to possess free will and glorious purpose."

I know this is official and it isn't the first time I saw this but...I just realized something that me smile like an idiot:

You got Sylvie and Renslayer and then...Miss minutes? Someone had to add, while being completely serious, the mascot-like miss minutes to that list...Don't get me wrong, doesn't remove anything but it is hilarious. Why Miss Minutes? I get Sylvie and Renslayer? But Miss Minutes? Little Ol' creepy TVA Mascot? Just funny to imagine someone having to write her on the same roster as serious and complex characters lol.

Ground Rules:

  1. This is not about which group is the morally best (All 3 are morally questionable in some way), but which group FUNCTIONS the best.
  2. I didn’t include specific enemy/space groups because there wasn’t much to go off of since no storyline/character is focused on em (I.E. Nova Corps) or because they’re are just evil version of another group (Look me in the eye and tell me HYDRA isn’t just evil SHIELD, I won’t believe you).
  3. I know one of these isn’t that secretive (DODC) but they function similar to one in the storyline..

That’s it have fun! You can make your points below! And if I decide to redo this later, put down some more groups I should add to the next one. :)

SHIELD WINS! Pretty cool. I actually had a second poll for this one, if it won >:) . Next, let's see which SHIELD director was the best: Coulson, Fury, Peggy, or someone else? I'll post that one later. (Also, sorry for not posting in awhile after the results was busy.

My thoughts on the new released Loki Season 2 Promo Art

Ok, let’s get rid of the one negative I have first: It seems to be hinting that they’ll try to reform the TVA instead of getting rid of it completely, which isn’t great. The TVA is inherently a negative thing, don’t try to reform it.

Now the Positives: Oh My God, The Aesthetics. It’s already been mentioned that these are technically inspired by Soviet propaganda art but still. It also gives me some great Portal and Fallout 2 vibes. Plus, more lore about how the TVA functions! So I’m hyped about that.

Coolest not most Powerful

I don't mean most powerful (enough people have talked about it), I mean the one you think was the coolest done. For me, I like it when magic functions like an extension of the wielder's personality and character. Hence, Loki being my favorite despite how little we've seen it used: He's the only one who's magic can be described as being only his. And it reflects his personality well; Sneaky, flashy, but also can be subtle and dangerous. It comes off as innate part of who he is. Wanda's my second favorite: It doesn't come off as casual and more like just a weapon or tool but it's again unique and only her's. Strange's my least favorite because it's somehow seems less unique than even Wong's use of the same magic (For Example, War Machine is basically like Iron Man but it still has enough to make it's own armor). But what about you? Do you care more about visuals? Use?

If you could, please reblog this for better/bigger sample size.

Results Are In!

autistic/sensory issues people 🤝 indigenous peoples 🤝 animals 🤝 hating light pollution

If you add people with PTSD, asthma, and small animals this would be a pretty accurate list of things that are horribly negatively affected by fireworks...Seriously we need to keep in mind other people and nature when we decide to do things more often. Fireworks aren’t even a necessity and there are better eco-friendly alternatives for festivities.

Cool Loki’s comic-inspired new look idea:

You guys know how almost all the new MCU Costumes (For both new and old characters) are comic-inspired? You know how Loki’s Title card is made up of stolen letters? Well, what if they did a mix of both those ideas. The overall look is very similar to the comic’s but it look like it’s made from different eras and styles. OG Kang/He Who Remains’ and (Kinda) Sylvie’s style was supposed to be like this and it worked out pretty well. A few examples:

-Maybe since he’s been part of/stuck with the TVA for awhile so what if some of armor pieces were recycled minutemen armor.

-Loki is gonna time travel a bit so maybe pick up a few styles they like similar to how He Who Remains did. Maybe some Cowboy Boot? Maybe some Biker gloves to replace his comic leather ones?

-It would be very in-character for Loki to steal a bit from his enemies too, since the aforementioned title card is stealing mostly from the avenger’s respective movie titles.

I could keep going for ages but you get what I mean. I also might even draw a sketch of this when I have the time. In the meanwhile, tell me what you guys think of the idea?

Loki’s comic Demi-god daughter already in the MCU?!

Ok, so I was just curious if the character, Tess Black (Loki’s Demi-God daughter that got possessed by Morwen), ever showed up again in comics. And apparently she was in Agents Of Shield??? I didn’t watch all the seasons but still…Was no one gonna say anything? In the show it’s never mentioned who her dad is besides them being an Asgardian, but still! I can’t believe I didn’t know this. Does that mean we could have a variant of her in the main timeline? Imagine if Loki goes to a timeline where Tess survived and is part of the Shield team? Fanfic writer please get on this underrated opportunity!

(Spoilers for Quantumania)

Finally saw it and boy…This had some weird parallels to Loki season 1. The movie was better than expected but I really am not the review movie/show type on here so here’s funny little thought instead:

I need a scene in Kang Dynasty where Scott and Loki are bonding about how Kang made them paranoid and scared. Like the rest of the Avengers think Scott is being paranoid or loosing it when he mentions how powerful and dangerous Kangs are, only for Loki to show up or randomly interrupt and defend Scott. Or just a random little comment.

Scott: “So did your Kang have the weird scars too?” Loki: “What? No, mine just had an ugly purple shawl thing. Did yours try to convince you to kill him?”

Scott: “No-What?!”

What I’ve gotten from Loki season 2 leaked trailer and leaked stuff from Ant-Man 3

Loki 🤝 Scott Lang:

Getting their lives complicated and messed up by Kang/Time Shenanigans.

(Also, if Loki ever met Scott, you’d think they would be cool with each other or would Loki be pissed at the guy who technically put him in this situation in the first place? I’m assuming he would have read about how exactly the Avengers time traveled while stuck in the TVA.)

Haven’t seen the movie yet, but I have a feeling it’s worth reblogging right now ;)

Personal Late-Night Realization Time (Shitpost)

I was wondering why I’m so obsessed with a specific ship dynamic and a specific ship as well (Lokius) and then I rewatched some clips of House MD…It just clicked…House and Wilson’s weird yet great chemistry-wise relationship literally made my taste in fictional (especially semi/non canon) ships! And I’m certain that those who know what I’m talking about can agree…Those two were the main relationship of the show (Doesn’t HAVE to be romantic but…) That is all, have a nice day/night.

Tom and Liz (Blacklist) and Ward and Skye (AoS) comparison

Obviously I’m not going to compare which is better written, I’m talking about how, the two relationships are kinda like two alternate endings for the same situation. Spoilers for: Blacklist and Agents Of Shield. Ok so, both relationships start at a similar concept: Main character is in a relationship or at least cares for another character and she trusts them without question. Then, it’s revealed that their love interest was undercover the whole time and just ‘faked’ loving them. And technically could be or is their enemy.

Here’s where the path diverges. And why I find this so interesting.

Agents of Shield difference: They waited an entire season for the reveal which led to the audience to trusting Ward as much as Skye and the team. Making us feel betrayed as well, leading us to dislike Ward. The characters are also an important difference. Ward decides to be loyal to Garrett and not his new team, especially Skye. Skye also immediately hates the backstabber for all his horrendous actions against the good people she’s met. Basically, Their relationship for the rest of the show is: Friends to (kinda) Lovers to Enemies.

Blacklist difference: They hint at it from the very first episode, and revealed it much sooner. Hence, making the audience have the reversed relationship compared to Ward. Instead of pulling the rug from under us it instead has to try to convince the audience that Tom genuinely cares for Liz. This is also helped with the grand difference between Tom and Ward: Tom puts his love for Liz over the mission and any other loyalties he had. Tom’s character development is the reversed of Ward’s as well. Liz also behaves differently. Besides being rightfully pissed for a while, she does eventually get back together with Tom. They even get a kid later! 

Again, this wasn’t to say which relationship is better in any way, I just found this as a good example on how one story idea can be used in multiple creative ways.
