I Agree With This So Much. This Defining Themselves By What They Love Also Explains These Ugly Divides

I agree with this so much. This “defining themselves by what they love” also explains these ugly divides in fandom. Some fans see their favourite character as a friend or a family member whom they have to defend against all criticisms, even by other characters.

Which leads to “Team A” vs. “Team B” mentality and to character bashing. Which always makes me sad, because I don’t wanna be on a team; I’d much rather be part of a community. We should all be able to enjoy what we love, together.

Especially in these bleak times we need empathy and compassion and not more walls to keep us apart. I genuinely love the MCU fandom but I wish that Civil War had not made us less civil toward one another.

In the words of the wise king T’Challa “we must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.”

The best Loki ship

Wow, four episodes into the Loki show and fans already start a shipping war. Am I surprised? Not really.

I have to say, though, that I find it absolutely tiresome.

Seriously, this show is supposed to give us more time with Loki, after Infinity War so cruelly took him form us. And, sadly, all that fans care about is which other character he ends up dating.

Norns, the toxicity of this whole debate almost makes me want to quit the fandom.

I was glad when the show finally confirmed that Loki is bisexual and gender-fluid. I loved seeing him open up to people and showing a depth of emotions we’d previously seen mostly in deleted scenes. It was so great that he was allowed to show off his magical abilities and his intellect.

How can anyone who calls themselves a Loki fan ignore all these awesome moments simply because they don’t get the romantic relationship of their choice?

Personally, I just don’t care. Even if he ends up with no one and takes old!Loki’s advice of “removing himself from the equation” that’s perfectly fine with me.

Because the best Loki ship is, in my opinion, Loki/happiness and nothing else can beat that.

let’s settle this shit but do NOT reblog if you’re gonna be modest about it like a little BITCH. anyway privilege check tell me which ones apply to you: hot, funny, can dance, can do math, can spell, can drive, can cook

Darcy and her taser are my OTP.

I will never get over the irony of the God of Thunder being tasered. It’s a perfect moment of cinema; it just cannot be improved upon.

Also, Darcy deserves all the love. She should have been in every movie, to tell it straight to heroes and villains alike.

Earth’s Mightiest Hero.

Everyone agrees that aaaaaa

Hello Tumblr!

After about 90% of humanity, I have finally come around to join this fun platform. My main reason for this is that this gives me a chance to talk to people who share my love for Marvel movies, Norse History or fanfiction. Maybe even all three.

In the past, I used the comments section of Ao3 to discuss theories of alternate history, worldbuild and character development. But there is just so much more space here and tumblr enables you to ask me questions like “Why did you make all Jötnar male?” or “Why is Odin such a bastard?” I’d be super happy to answer those and others, and to read your own headcanons.

What I love most about fan communities is that they bring us together. So, welcome to my little study corner on Jötunheimr, no matter what country or realm you hail from!
