#hwr

Aparently Loki can't have any self respect or be proud of who he is, he's supposed to be forever Sylvie's punching bag and is to be perpetualy humiliated, otherwise he's arrogant and has "delusions of grandeur".

The thing is: Loki *is* a god, he's not wrong to say that, and in my opinion he's not being arrogant on the trailer, he is simply stating a fact, it's different from ep 1 where he plays the "I'm a God" card to avoid the questions Mobius is asking him, on the trailer i get the vibe of: "we are capable of assuming this responsability because we *are* Gods, we can do this, we can save this place". If Sylvie doesn't see herself as one that's her problem, Loki is a God and nothing people say or do can change anything about it.

What amazes me about all of this is the fact that all of this mess is happening because of Sylvie, she killed hwr and didn't consider for a moment the consequences of her actions, she also doesn't want to deal with those consequences and now that Loki is trying to fix the mess she created her fans are bashing him because god forbid Loki contradicts Sylvie, she is the superior variant and therefore he should bow to her wisdom and let Kang wreack havoc in the multiverse just to please her.

It goes to a point where i saw them saying that Loki should stop trying to be heroic and fight to save the TVA to be with her, because *she* is more important than everything in the multiverse, apparently they want him reduced to be her boyfriend, he can't have any motivation and shouldn't fight for anything, he can only follow her around like a lost puppy.

But here's the thing: I don't think this is where the show is heading to, Loki seems to be finally accepting who he is and he is determined to save that place, because he knows they have to prepare to fight Kang, he knows that TVA will be vital to restore order to the multiverse, I think by the end of the story he'll end up reforming the TVA alongside Mobius and the other agents and they'll become sort of the HQ of the squad that's trying to stop Kang.

I know what I want

I know what kind of God I need to be

For you

given what we’ve learnt from the show and the interviews; in desperate order to stop the multiversal war, He Who Remains figured out how to control and weaponize Alioth to erase the realities that would produce bad versions of Kang.

So, he weaponized the cosmic entity and erased every ‘bad’ Kang to preserve peace between realities. 

However, given what happened in the finale, Kangs are now loose again and HWR is gone.

The thing is...Loki and Sylvie both know how to control Alioth - by combining their powers.

Which means, as two beings capable of taming this beast, they represent a threat to Kang/s and he/they will probably want to eliminate them both to get them out of his/their way.

They’re also both aware Kang and his variants are villains and need to be eliminated. They have a strong motive to stop them.

And who knows, given his interest in Sylvie and Loki, and how he ‘picked’ them as his successors, perhaps he even intentionally told them about Alioth (how he tamed it and why) so they’d remember that they need to stay and work together if they want to win the upcoming war. I know they are both against erasing realities, but perhaps using Alioth will be their last option out of pure desperation to stop the war.

He did point how they were the perfect candidates to take over his job after all.

And so far, to our knowledge, they are the only ones who know how to control Alioth and how to fix the mess. They only need to find each other again and then stick together.

And it makes sense why Tom said Loki won't stop searching for Sylvie. Not only because he loves her and wants her to be okay and help her heal, but also because she's in huge danger and the only way they can win this war is together

Which brings me back to this quote:
