Loki: I Hate The Universe And Everything In It. I Cannot Wait Until I Shuffle Off This Disgusting Mortal

[One of Loki's kids comes in wearing makeup]

Loki: Oh no. I'm a complete failure as a parent. How did I let things get this way? Sigyn: [cautiously] Loki... Loki: (sobbing) How have I never taught any of my children how to hold their hands steady while applying eyeliner?!?!?

Hey! I am at the last part of book 3 magnus chase. But I must say in the terms of Gods, it is my least favourite series. Loki is shown an evil dude who kills his children, when in reality, one of the reasons of Ragnarok was the illtreatment his childeen got. Sigyn is shown as a victim side character,Thor was meant to be funny, as the farting, show surfing dude, but it was more annoying. What do you think? (I would have written more but limited words+ I might be biased towards MCU's potrayal)

Yeah, I mostly feel the same way about MCGA's portrayal of the gods. I love the series and its characters at large, but I think some of the gods were just portrayed wrong. My main complaints are about Loki and Sigyn, of course; because even if I still love MCGA Loki I just wish he was given more depth besides "Ooh I'm so evil, I torture people and make my own childrens' lives hell and I just wanna destroy the universe". Like,, where are the motives?? Narvi and Vali were mentioned once when -the way I see it- their death is basically what led to Loki wanting Ragnarok. And then there's the fact that he verbally abuses Sigyn when we see them in the cave and completely ignores her otherwise; and the fact that Sigyn herself is portrayed as,, a doormat and that's all.

Thor was also inaccurate but I feel like not that much?? Like the book portrays the gods in a modern setting, and going by the myths, if they were written today I feel like Thor would mostly be like that. But it's true that there's a certain factor of seriousness to his character the series ignored completely.

I feel like this happens with other gods too, like Freyja. She's portrayed as just,, pretty. And that's the one thing people always get wrong about Freyja, she's a warrior too.

But eh, it's also true that you can't really expect much accuracy from this kind of series. After all, they're centered around the protagonists. The gods are plot devices. The author kinda needed to make Loki into the cruel, heartless villain, Sigyn into the tragic victim wife, Thor into the dumb, laughing stock lazy dude, etc.

Imo Frigg isn't the World's Best Mom like Odin isn't the World's Best Dad. Frigg didn't give a hoot about Hodr. 😂

Loki: sometimes I feel like a horrible father

Alex and Sam: SOMETIMES?!

Sigyn: I really like murder mysteries. Loki, trying to impress her: I've been a suspect in 4 murder cases.

They're just fucking around, being flirty, don't believing in geneder nor sexuality, playing in both sides... and we all know, folks, that we love it all, utterly

HAPPY WILSON WEDNESDAY REPOST TO CELEBRATE WILSON WEDNESDAY!!!!

repost if youre a true wilsoner

I've seen some people be saying that Sigyn in the Norse Myths is a ' tradwife '

Me : * LAUGHING SO FUCKING HARD MY SIDES ALMOST HURTS FROM LAUGHING SM *

Think about it, would ANYONE who is a valkyrie and/or valkurie veteran, volva, a FUCKING VICTORY AND FIDELITY GODDESS, and WHO LITERALLY WENT, ' FUCK IT ' AND WILLINGLY STAYED WITH LOKI DURING RAGNAROK, HOLDING HER SHIELD ABOVE HER HEAD TO PREVENT POISON DRIPPING ONTO HIM, WOULD BE A TRADWIFE?!?!?!?!

Yeah, I don't think so

Srsly in the Norse Myths Sigyn is a REBEL, and came to be a symbol of those who stood up for those who are ostracized for whatever unjust reason, and she is ONE OF THE DEITIES WHOM ANCIENT NORDICS PRAY TO FOR VICTORIES ONE WAY OR ANOTHER

And Sigyn becomes an icon in Iceland FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS. I literally get ' oddball ' energy in spades from Sigyn in the Norse Myths

And being a volva, Sigyn in the Norse Myths ofc came to feel connected with nature and mythical related stuff

She won't even have time to even care about haters, honestly. In fact, she doesn't care much of what others think of her

Sigyn also came to be a symbol of those who do whatever they can to help their loved ones who are once in astray be back on a right path

Like she WILL NOT stand by and do nothing regarding issues that matter to HER and to her LOVED ONES

Yes, Sigyn in the Norse Myths is a girlboss - a compassionate and empathetic girlboss

🤩🤩🥺🥺🥺🥺

...what was that ending- how did they just- pick up two whole seasons of setting everything up for a big show down and- turn it into a "well, nice allegory wasn't it?" in twenty minutes??? i- why- how- this feels like that ending of Harry Potter where he just wakes up under the staircase because he dreamt everything- THAT CAME OUT OF THE BLUE WHAT THE HELL

GOD’s STAMPS 💌
