How Loki Escaped Ragnarok (Theory)

How Loki Escaped Ragnarok (Theory)

So at the end of Thor Ragnarok Loki starts Ragnarok by putting Surtur's crown on the eternal flame, however, both of those were in Odin’s vault which is very far from the Bifrost and where the ship was. So while I should have been doing other stuff revising for exams that start next week I starting wondering again how Loki managed to escape as this had always been something that I never understood about the ending. So I’ve come up with a theory of how Loki could have escaped.

To put it in perspective this is an image of the Bifrost with the palace in the background from just before their fight with Hela and we know that Odin’s vault is at the centre of it.

I don’t know how fast it took for Surtur to spawn (is that the right word for what happened IDK) since it cuts to Hela fighting Valkyrie but we do know that Surtur destroyed the palace from within. We can see it happen as we get a zoom in as it is being destroyed.

Now the firstly I had originally thought of at the time but I didn’t think possible was that Loki ran and I mean that he ran like Hulk was behind him ready to Hulk smash him again. I mean if he did run from Odin’s vault back to the ship it would have had to have run really fast even if he has superhuman stamina and speed I doubt that Loki would have managed to get to the ship may be out the palace but then how did he get to the ship? Thor obviously didn’t know he was on the ship until Loki can to his room, therefore, Loki didn’t come aboard with him. How did Loki come aboard and escape Asgard then? He would have had to use magic but Loki doesn’t know any magic to teleport (I know in the comic he can teleport and he can fly but in the MCU none of that has been shown) therefore he would have had to use a magic item to escape. To be precise the Tesseract which is the Space Infinity Stone.

This was another thing I never quite understood was why Loki took the Tesseract at the end of Ragnarok he has no use for it, especially since when masquerading as Odin he did have it in his possession and didn’t do anything with it. You could argue that he took it to give to Thanos but then he wouldn’t have been so reluctant to hand over the Tesseract to Thanos. The only other valid reason Loki would have had to take the Tesseract would have been to use it to escape and if he did then that could explain how Thanos found them at the end of Ragnarok. We also know that the space stone can still create portables with a device that channels its power since Red Skull gets dragged through a portal at the end of The First Avenger while it wasn’t in a device. Loki is also an extremely powerful sorcerer and would have most likely tested how the Tesseract worked while masquerading as Odin.

Anyway, that is my theory on how Loki managed to escape from the destruction of Asgard mainly written because I didn’t want to revise as it has previously made no sense to me. It also seems like lately, I’ve been thinking about Marvel movies far more than I should be probably still not over Infinity War but still.

Until next time!

So does this mean we are getting the hogyoku versions of the other Espada as well like we did for Ulquiorra because I am so down for that.

Thor’s Way of Showing affection (Infinity War Spoilers)

Anyway, in Infinity War we got multiple heart-wrenching scenes *Cough* finale with Spiderman *Cough*  and of course, we have Loki’s death at the beginning of the movie. I couldn’t help but notice something about the way he dies in terms that he gets grabbed on the neck a lot.

So in one of the deleted scenes, Thor grabs Loki’s neck as a sign of affection just before going into the throne room for the coronation ceremony. Thor grabs Loki’s neck as a sign of affection. The thing is he doesn’t just do that in the first movie he continually does this throughout the Thor movies.

So next I began thinking Thor also grabs Loki’s neck in the Avengers movie when trying to convince him to come home to Asgard. Once again this is an act of affection as a way of convincing Loki to come home and we can assume at this point that Thor shows Loki his affection via grabbing him by the neck. That or Asgardians just like grabbing people by the neck since Loki throws Stark out a window via the neck.

We can also assume that Thor picked up this habit from Odin who also grabs Figga by the neck as a sign of affection during the final time they see each other. Real shame Odin was such a shit father, Frigga was the best mum.

Onto Thor the Dark World where Thor grabs Loki’s neck twice, the first time it is when Thor is threatening him. After escaping from Asgard Thor and Loki get into an argument stemming from Frigga’s recent death which course Thor to try to attack Loki. If you actually look at Loki’s face you can see that he is momentary scared and confused by Thor’s actions. Personally, I believe that the reason for this is because Loki is not used to Thor grabbing his neck in any way except in affection and the fact that Loki is the little brother and he’s looking for comfort from his big bro. 

The next time in the movie when Thor grabs Loki’s neck is when Loki is dying on Svartalfheim and Loki is calling himself a fool. Thor grabs Loki’s neck as a way of trying to comfort his brother in what they both thoughts were Loki’s last moments. This moment was actually very brief since Thor quickly removes his hand from Loki’s neck but overall the fact that Thor is basically begging Loki to stay with him generally shows Thor’s affection.

Now in Ragnarok, if I’m not mistaken although I might be Thor never grabs Loki by the next with the exception of when Loki is masquerading as Odin and Mjolnir is going straight at Loki’s face since Thor’s hand is on the back of his neck. Apart from that scene Thor never touches Loki’s neck however he does pat Loki on the back as a way of showing his love for Loki especially since Thor has previously its always been holding Loki’s neck. Now Thor pats Loki on the back during the elevator scene (Get help scene) where Thor is talking about them going their sperate ways which Thor thinks is what Loki wants plot twist it really isn’t Thor is trying to show his love for Loki by letting him go. Ragnarok was the movie where we get a pivotal changing point in Thor and Loki’s relationship and grabbing the neck seems to be something that has changed since Thor is no longer comfortable doing this or some other reason.

Finally the most recent movie Infinity fucking War the movie which I went into the theatre thinking I’m ready then when the opening credits began I started whispering ‘I’m not ready’ over and over again while grasping my chair arms so tightly my hands started going white until my friend told me to stop. Loki dies. The fact is that Loki dies because Thanos strangulates him then snaps his neck. I repeat strangulates him then snaps his neck. Thanos grabs Loki in the same way that Thor used to show his love and takes the very life from him with Thor helplessly watching confined in metal. I’m not even going to talk about how Thor’s last word to his little brother who he has just started to reconnect with was ‘You really are the worst brother ever’.

So thank you, Marvel, for taking something Loki had grown up with as a meaning of love and turning it into the very thing that kills him. Thank you for tearing my heart out in the first 5 god damn minutes then managing to tear out what little remained at the end of the movie with so many people being dusted. Thank you, Marvel. 

BTW Loki had better be back in the next movie he deserved better

Well Ok Then...

Was aiming for Bankai Kisuke but literally the very first one I got was True Zangetsu so I'll take it.

Yumi sweetheart, what is that thing around your neck? I mean I like it more than your anime world of the living clothes but still... You look great without it. But still, what is it like I want to say a scarf but it's pinned together sooo??? Then again I don't know much about fashion so it might be in fashion.

Honestly I think I spend more time critiquing their clothes than I do paying attention to the story.

Prepare for trouble and make it double...

What I like is how Segunda Estapa Ulquiorra opens his wings then trys to use the force reaches out meanwhile Anniversary Ulquiorra does a dramatic twirl while flying. I also think that A. Ulquiorra has smaller wingspan than S.E. Ulquiorra. Take that last comment as you will.
