Mannn I missed drawing them lowkey...

My Lady Loki.

Look. A Sylki chicken.

So I’ve seen a lot of discourse about Loki on tiktok and honestly, where better to talk about fandom than here? Spoiler warning for the show, obviously.

Firstly, I am so glad that we got some rep in the MCU. I know it means so much to both non-binary and multisexual communities. I know a lot of people feel like the show queer-baited but I want to talk about how I think it didn’t. First of all, the conversation between Sylvie and Loki, he outright said that he likes both and the director of the show confirmed him being bi on twitter. I honestly believe that Loki doesn’t need to “prove his bi-ness” by having a relationship storyline on the show. What has been said is enough for me personally. There are other LGBTQ+ storyline ideas that are barely used in media that I’d rather see for Loki in comparison to seeing him in a relationship anyway. Secondly, it says he’s genderfluid in his files at the TVA and a lot of people are mad that they don’t see him shift to match that, but here is where I think otherwise. All the Loki’s we see are a part of the sacred timeline until a nexus event which causes a new timeline to branch. I think other Loki’s embraced their gender-fluidity much more than the 2012 Loki we know and that could be why their nexus events occurred. Obviously we haven’t seen that in the show yet and that’s just me theorising but I think that it’s a cool idea.

Secondly, Sylvie and Loki. I don’t ship them personally but I have no issue with anyone who does. I think self love is an important thing and I think that what they’ve done with Sylvie and Loki is quite the metaphor for that. I don’t think they should begin a relationship as I think them being friends is really cute, but if they did, It wouldn’t be the weirdest thing Marvel could do.
