Honestly, I Figured. I Swear To God, I've Only Seen It On A Single 'totally Legal Website', And Even

To be frank, the double standards of the mcu are hilariously ridiculous:

A man who killed people after the loss of his family is evil and deserves to spend the rest of life in solitary confinement

But a man who killed people after the loss of his family was just grieving and made a mistake

The difference? One of them is an avenger

Mind control is an evil thing to do

Wanda can mind control as many people as many times as she wants to, nobody cares

Torture is bad

It's okay if Thor, Mobius or Wanda are the ones doing it

Being mind controlled makes you innocent if your name is Clint Barton

Being stripped of your memories, even if you made a decision to torture and kill people and enjoyed the process, makes you innocent if your name is Mobius

Being tortured and brainwashed and stripped of your memories is just extenuating circumstances if your name is Bucky Barnes (they originally claimed him innocent but then changed their mind in phase 4)

Being tortured, mind controlled and having your memories altered is your own fault and is no excuse, you enjoyed it anyway, if your name is Loki

Slavery is bad

If Valkyrie spends over a thousand years enslaving people and selling them to the Grandmaster with no remorse, well, she is just making money, give her the throne

Kidnapping babies and hurting and using them their entire life is bad (if you're Dreykov)

But Thanos loved Gamora

And Loki is an ungrateful brat for not appreciating Odin

The list goes on, btw

   I’ve started taking suggestions for horror movies to watch, right?

   Well, I’ve so far been suggested The Boy, House of Wax, Texas chainsaw (The 2003 remake), and House of 1000 corpses. I’ve gotten through all except the last one, which I just started watching.

   ... I am 33 minutes in. Since five minutes in, I became painfully aware of why people keep saying Rob Zombie’s movies are weird as shit.

   For the first ten, I was asking myself if I really wanted to watch the rest. But y’know what? I am two-thirds of the way through, I might as well finish it.

   If you have any suggestions for movies, I’ll gladly take a look, lol.

Batman Holiday special idea

Idk this just came to mind and I thought I’d share:

“The Fright before Christmas”

Basically, Scarecrow ends up discovering that Santa Claus exists during one Christmas in Gotham, and the next year, he decides to pull a Jack Skellington and steal Christmas for his own. (Depending on which version of his backstory is used, there may be a reason. Personally I like the idea of using the year one backstory and having it be some kind of ‘making up for lost time’/getting back at Santa for the lack of care for his younger self at the same time.) Though, honestly I feel it might make more sense with the BTAS versions.

He, with the help of Jervis, Riddler, and a few other rogues, takes one of the horse drawn carriages from around the city and fashions it into a carriage of fright. The carriage pulled by eight mind-controlled deer taken from the nearby wilderness.

Batman, of course, finds out about the plot. (Maybe throw in a throw away line referencing Santa’s annual little visit to Apokolips as well.) He tries to stop it, but he can’t seem to figure out who would be organizing it, that is until he finally realizes Scarecrow’s the ringleader of the plot.

This all culminates in a climax involving Scarecrow and a few others in the carriage, riding around Gotham and throwing small boxes full of fear gas and miscellaneous rogue fixings as they go (Poison ivy having boxes full of fast-growing plants, Riddler’s boxes being mini riddler traps that shock you if you don’t answer correctly, etc.). With Batman hot on their tails trying to catch them and avoiding their attempts to stop him. In the end, they end up being taken in, but Scarecrow is given some mail from the outside, sure enough, Santa decided to give him a piece of coal. Petty, but not undeserved.

Idk, the idea came to mind and I couldn’t get the thought of a Scarecrow costume fashioned after Santa’s suit out of my head. ...That and the thought of Jonathan singing ‘What’s this?’ from Nightmare before Christmas. (And the batman rogues gallery singing ‘Making Christmas’.)

Send me asks with ships-

   I’m bored, so if anyone wants to send me some [NON-PROSHIP] ships for this, feel free. (I’ll obviously only respond to ones from fandoms/involving characters that I’m familiar with, lol. Though, I’m familiar with quite a few fandoms/franchises not talked about yet on this blog, so, I guess just send what you think I might know?)

About character bingo, Loki and Bucky?

I'm going to assume this is MCU Loki and Bucky we're talking about, but feel free to send another ask if you have another version of them in mind.

"I'll write a small word vomit thing about them." *Proceeds to write four paragraphs.*

Bucky showed up in the MCU first, so he's first here, too. Bucky Buchanan Barnes, huh? I'll admit, in the first Captain America movie, I didn't really have much in way of opinion about him. I was in the 'they sure do exist' camp. Didn't give him much thought.

That did change, however, when he returned as the Winter Soldier. He was terrifying in Civil war, ngl. But I also thought he was kinda cool. After that, sitting on the movies for a while and rewatching them a few times, I grew a far stronger appreciation for the character. (Which was probably due to how young I was when I watched the movies initially, but let's ignore that-) Which makes the awful way the fandom and current writers treat and mischaracterize him even worse, tbh. But we're not talking about that right now-

Unrelated: Bucky gives me gender envy like mad. (I'm Boyflux, btw.)

I want to wrap him in a big fuzzy blanket and give him a hot cocoa, dude deserves some rest and tlc.

Comparing how I feel about Bucky to Loki is super unfair... to Bucky. Though honestly, it would be unfair to all Marvel characters, since Loki is my favorite. (*Insert people rolling their eyes because me liking a character that's 'popular' makes me annoying/cringe, apparently.*)

Fun fact: Loki is actually one of the first Marvel characters I was ever introduced to. Though, granted, it wasn't MCU Loki. I'm constantly rotating them in my mind like Banana.mp4 (Rotat e). I can also relate to them on a scarily close level. Like jeez, my older sibling was kicked out right before I learned about my bloody heritage from my father, too, da fuq?

Loki in the MCU is probably the most mis-characterized, and the most unabashedly hated and poorly handled character by the writers in the later phases. Which sucks, because his attempts to prove himself and feeling unworthy are exactly what made them so interesting. But it seems the writers like to mis-characterize him as being arrogant and self-centred, when they're actually the opposite in every movie before Ragnarok. *sigh*

He deserves a break, too, tbh. They both need some tlc stat.

...Y'know, they really missed an opportunity by never letting these two meet. But then again, the MCU has/had a problem with casual interactions. (I mean, Thor and Natasha barely interacted in any of the movies despite being on the same team.)

Random fandom poll #1

Please don't just vote based on who's your favorite or who you think is the most attractive.

The 'Loki Series' is to Loki what 'Allstars Batman and Robin the boy wonder' is to Batman.

While both grossly misinterpret the characters they're using, pull stupid unnecessary fanservice, take leaps in logic, have very little consistency, romanticize abuse, and blatantly spit in the faces of the original characters, at least Batman doesn't have an incest relationship in the Allstars comics.

Either way, both of them sound like they were written by edgelords.

(from the Thor: The Dark World movie storybook)

“What if I was a robot and I didn’t know it?” (Old)

   AU idea: (Android-Loki AU by myself, lol. Though I’m sure someone else must’ve thought of this, haha.)

   Possible trigger warnings?: Parental neglect? I mean, it’s Loki, he’s the poster child of parental abuse/neglect. Brief mention of a mortal kombat fatality-style death.

   Full idea below:

   We’ll call this Loki...Lodroid? Just for the sake of simplicity. (I might come up with a better name later.)

   In this timeline, Lodroid was made as a ‘companion’ and ‘protector’ of sorts for Thor, as he was an only child in this universe. Everyone but Thor and Lodroid knew about it, but Odin made it an unspoken law to never mention it to either of them.

   Lodroid was programmed with a ‘self-awareness protocol’ that basically forces him to avoid any thought or idea that he’s robotic. So, his mind forces him to avoid the thought subconsciously, which would be overridden by any physical proof that this is the case. (Thus why nobody is allowed to mention it.) Lodroid is also pre-programmed to see Thor as his brother and Frigga/Odin as his parents.

   ‘Magic’ infused within Lodroid’s body made him capable of magic on his own, as well as casting a disguise over his robotic body to make him seem organic. (Like how he was cast over to not look like a Jotun in the OG universe.) His robotics also made specifically to seem as ‘asgardian’ as possible. (Ie: He can eat and drink, which is turned into fuel to power him, he needs sleep, he feels pain, he feels emotion, etc.)

   For many years, he ‘grew up’ alongside his brother Thor, Odin, and Frigga. (Odin still neglected him, he was still ignored and basically bullied by the other Asgardians, etc. Frigga still was kind to him though, still seeing him as her son, even if he was artificial, as she knows that he still has emotions and thoughts.) 

   So, it basically remains pretty similar up until the events of ‘Thor’. When they end up in Jotunheim. Here, Lodroid’s arm is grabbed by the Jotun, but instead of turning blue, his skin starts to crumble like it does for everyone else. Lodroid panicked and in pain, lashes out. Remember when I said he was a ‘protector’ as well as companion? He was outfitted with weaponry, which only activated here, when both brothers were in critical danger. Lodroid’s palm fires a blast of highly concentrated energy, which basically fires right through the Jotun (Fatality, Loki wins)

   Of course, this wasn’t normal magic, Lodroid was well-aware of that as soon as he realized what happened. But if not his usual magic, what was it?

   Thor gets sent to earth, and Lodroid goes mad trying to figure out what it was. Then, it clicks. He finds the beam matched that of the destroyer's almost exactly. Lodroid figures out that there’s an enchantment cloaking him and while standing in front of a mirror, uses his own magic to override the illusion. Only to be met with a terrible sight.

   Lodroid is met with mechanics, metal, and two green, glowing camera shutter optical lenses. (I imagine it looks similar to a mixture of C-3PO and a terminator.) And now he can see it: ‘Self awareness protocols disengaged’... ‘System procedures visible’...  ‘Information overload in progress’... ‘Emotional levels reaching critical’...  ‘Systems crashing’...  ‘Oxygen levels compromised’... 

   This is the point he’s found by Odin, who finds him staring at his uncloaked appearance in the mirror. ‘Meltdown in progress’. However in this version of events, due to his not actually being organic, he’s disallowed the throne by default as he’s not recognized as Odin’s ‘real son’. (”Was I just some toy for Thor to play with until he grows bored of me?! What would you have done had you no use of me, would you have thrown me into a scrapyard?!”)

   Frigga tries to get him to calm down, oh how she tries. But Lodroid, unable to access the destroyer’s might, is basically forced to confront Thor on his own. Thor doesn’t recognize him at first, as he’s still uncloaked here, but Sif and the warriors definitely do. It’s a shock to the senses for Thor, who up until now was also in the dark about it. Sif and the others are convinced that Lodroid is irreversibly off the deep-end, Sif even mentioning in passing that she ‘saw this coming a long time ago.’ (Insert Darcy making a robocop or terminator joke, you choose, lol.)

   The fight is way more emotional than you might think it is at first. Lodroid and Thor basically ending in a tie as Thor basically tells Lodroid that regardless of what secrets may be hiding, that he’ll always be his brother. (He deserves a semi-happy conclusion to this, you can’t tell me otherwise.) Big difference in this timeline: Lodroid doesn’t go back to Asgard. He says he will once they try making the trip home (with some side eyes from Sif and the others.) but when they arrive in Asgard from the bifrost, he’s not there.

   Nope, Lodroid left sneakily. He’s off to try and figure out what to do next after this huge revelation/identity crisis. But that doesn’t mean he won’t end up appearing for ‘The Avengers’. Thor is kind of bummed out, because he can’t find his brother, but hey, at least he can visit his girlfriend here instead of just disappearing, eh?

   This post is getting long so I’ll leave this here for now. If people like it enough I might make a sequel for ‘The Avengers’.  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
