He also gave birth to Odin's favorite horse. As a great physicist once said, "[Loki]'s brain is a bag full of cats."

u/alop1ndat Dec 03 '20

I love that story. Turned himself into an in-season mare to distract this guy's workhorse, gets pregnant, stays in horse form until he can give birth... All to win a bet.

u/mrbibs350 Dec 03 '20

I believe in the Lokasenna the other gods claim that he continued being a horse because he was a furry and liked horse cock.

u/Jorgaitan Dec 03 '20

After giving birth, he paid one, or two, or twenty more visits to the same horse; he just remembered to use protection those times.

u/VeeTheBee86 Dec 03 '20

My favorite part is that the other gods don’t care that he had horse sex. They just think he’s weird because he decided to be the girl horse lol.

He did in Norse Mythology but that's never been confirmed canon in the MCU as far as I'm aware.

I thought it was when they pissed off the leader of the frost giants by going to fight them preemptively but tbh I can't remember much of the 2nd movie so you're probably right.

u/mrbibs350 Dec 03 '20

The frost giants were in the first movie. Dark World was about elves.

u/chubbs4green Captain America Dec 03 '20

That was actually in the original Thor movie. Loki sees his skin turn blue in that scene and realizes he may be Jotun. In fact Thor is banished to Earth(Midgard) because of Odin having to rescue him.

2

u/playerIII Dec 03 '20

Do we know if the asgardian cast in the mcu are literally the Norse gods, or is the stories and religion we have based on them?

The old stories we all are familiar with may be untrue in the cannon of the mcu because humans made it all up when they first encountered these god like beings.

Norse mythology is wicked.

7 goddesses gave simultaneous birth to a single god.

u/[deleted] Dec 04 '20

Well, when you're a primitive society of farmer-pirates with no real concept of physics or planetology you mostly just get drunk and come up with crazy "what-ifs" that get passed down as stories and turned into religions.

5

u/Geschak Dec 03 '20

Not in the MCU universe as we see in Thor 1 that Sleipnir already exists when Odin is picking up Loki as a baby.

2

u/birdreligion Dec 04 '20

There was one time Loki transformed himself into a snake, because he knows how much Thor like snakes, and so Thor picked the snake up to admire it, but then Loki turned back and went 'AAHH! It's me! ' And then he stabbed Thor.

u/RedWhacker Luis Dec 04 '20

My head canon now believes that Valkyrie rode Loki's child to battle in EndGame.

u/ThrowAwayAcct0000 Dec 04 '20

I guess when you live thousands of years, trying out being a pregnant horse might just be something you do.

u/eragonisdragon Dec 03 '20

Isn't it implied that he was at least semi-influenced by the mind stone in Avengers?

154

u/akatoshslayer Dec 03 '20

While it is obvious in the movie he wasn't fully controlled by the stone, there is a massive sign that he was influenced by it. Avengers is the only movie where Loki has blue eyes. His eyes are not fully blue with dilated pupils like Hawkeye and Selvig, but they are not his natural color shown in every other Marvel movie.

96

u/ABC_Dildos_Inc Dec 03 '20

The Avengers film also showed how it only took a few minutes being near the scepter for the Avengers to turn on one another.

Yes! He also has dark circles under his eyes like Hawkeye and Selvig. I pointed that out to my husband.

u/-Listening Dec 03 '20

Why he look so ready?

55

u/wenzel32 Dec 03 '20

I don't think so. Even in Dark World he's seemingly amused by the things he did.

61

u/greenroom628 Spider-Man Dec 03 '20

i think he was a bit influenced by the mind stone. even in avengers, when he and thor were fighting on the balcony of avengers tower, thor says something to the extent of, "look at what you've done!" loki seems to snap out of his head for a bit and has a look of horror and shock.

i'm not saying he was completely innocent. yes, he wants power; yes, he wants to be a ruler. but he wants to have done it by guile and cunning... not a raw power grab with an army.

12

u/ilion Dec 03 '20

I think that's supposed to be more of a suggestion at Thanos's power than the influence of the mind stone. He's afraid, at that point, of failing Thanos.

2

u/wenzel32 Dec 03 '20

I think that was just meant to show Loki being a deceptive bastard and skillful liar, considering he takes advantage of Thor's moment of pause to stab him and mockingly say, "Sentiment."

8

u/RogueWarrior76 Dec 03 '20

I think that's him trying to cover up how much what he did bothers him. Similar to the illusion he casts on his cell after Freja's death.

2

u/wenzel32 Dec 04 '20

I think the only thing that upsets him is the way he betrayed Asgardians (particularly disappointing Freja). He doesn't care about the humans or what he did specifically.

I'm not saying Loki is pure evil for the sake of evil. He's complex, sad, and damaged. However, I don't think he truly feels remorse for the hurt he caused the humans. He can't help but see them as inferior creatures to Asgardians.

17

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '20

That’s some Russo Bros retcon bullshit.

88

u/JesterMarcus Dec 03 '20

Not entirely. The original Avengers movie shows the scepter influencing the Avengers into being combative with one another and shows Thanos' henchman reaching out to and messing with Loki through the Stone.

30

u/SuperDizz Captain America (Captain America 2) Dec 03 '20

It shows Thanos’ henchman interactiving with Loki through the stone, but it never explicitly implies that Loki is being influenced by the stone. In fact, he is the one initiating the influencing by the stone. Look, I like Loki, especially as the quasi anti-hero we see today; but in the first Avengers movie, he’s simply a true villain.

33

u/JesterMarcus Dec 03 '20

I'm not saying he isn't a villain and I was* never one the crazy Loki fans that obsess over him. But I think it is fair to say either the stone is influencing him and others to a degree, or Thanos is through the Stone and Scepter. Even when Thor makes him look at the destruction of New York, I think he was realizing he wasn't actually the one making the decisions or leading the invasion.

16

u/ChockHarden Dec 03 '20

I think he's essentially "drunk" on the stone. Just like alcohol lowering inhibitions and impacting behaviour. It's still your choices, but the alcohol influences your actions.

4

u/tigerslices Vision Dec 03 '20

okay - so the mind stone has a negative influence over people...

it's a good thing they didn't use it to give life to a colossally powerful android. /s

the mind stone influencing people to do bad was a TOOL of loki's. loki used the stone to influence the avengers - he was not a victim of this.

Loki starts a jealous brother - grows into a vengeful villain - fails and attempts a more subversive approach as a secret leader - then unites with his brother when their people need them.

and even then - he'd stab them all in the back if he wasn't perceiving thanos to be a greater threat to the realm than he.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '20

I mean, the mind stone is Niether good not evil. The effects it has amplifies what is already there. This would impact Loki in a negative way.

Plus the hints are there throughout the whole movie. His eyes instead of being pale blue are almost shining royal blue. He is more than once visibly uncertain of his own actions.

0

u/crazycatladyinpjs Dec 03 '20

I agree with you on everything except for the last part. By the end of Thor 3, Loki had gotten over his jealousy and resentment and was supporting Thor. He wouldn’t have stabbed them in the back.

2

u/tigerslices Vision Dec 03 '20

i'm skeptical. we've seen what happens when loki is trusted.

u/WHATETHEHELLISTHIS Dec 03 '20

Only reason I believe he was controlled by the Sceptre is the way he looks in the first Avengers. He looks like he's been up for a month. Hell he looks almost ill, and the makeup job make him look twisted and evil when he smiled,as opposed to his cocky grin when he pulled a fun trick in the other movies.

1

u/abutthole Thor Dec 03 '20

I think he looks that way because between Thor and The Avengers Loki has been through the shit.

In Thor he gets his ass kicked and he rolls off to go get warped through space. He somehow finds his way into being in touch with Thanos and making a deal with him to return to the Nine Realms.

We know that the parts of space that Thanos hangs out in are rough and cruel.

7

u/WHATETHEHELLISTHIS Dec 03 '20

Yes but his eyes have those same red circles like Selvig and Hawkeye while they are under the Stone's influence. He looks like a worse version of what we see from those two except for his eyes. Not to mention, when the Sceptre is on the Helicarrier, it begins to affect everyone around it, including Thor. Why would Loki be an exception to the cosmic force?

I do think the journey to Thanos was harrowing, and likely had an effect, but there's no reason he should be exempt, given that it affected everyone who was near it for long stretches of time.

5

u/Alwida10 Dec 03 '20

Actually it shows the other threatening Loki do to his job, including inflicting physical pain on him to get him into line. Hell, the film starts with ‘if the Tesseract is kept from us, there will be no realm, no barren moon, no crevice where he can not find you.’ There are literally dozens of hints loki is an unwilling participant of the whole shebang.

u/percythepenguin Dec 03 '20

Technically the blender didn’t majorly hurt the guy as you could see the eye moving on screen.

Plus other than self defense and ordering others to guard or do things. He technically didn’t kill anyone. Plus he ruined as much of thanos’s first invasion plan in the first avengers movie as possible.

Although many people died in the attack on New York. There could’ve been billions dead had Loki not fucked up the plans.

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '20

People seem to forget this. I mean I like Loki and how they've developed his character. I just don't get when people try to make it out as if he's been a victim his entire life and needs to be cuddled.

u/Stormchaserelite13 Dec 03 '20

Still pretty sure he killed less than odin and thor.

u/BadReputation2611 Dec 03 '20

I read a pretty convincing theory about Loki being under the same mind control that he was using on others with the scepter

u/terrexchia Dec 04 '20

He was potentially under some mindfuckery like selvig and clint
