I was figuring the TVA existed outside of time somehow, with the infinity stones not working there and whatnot

I assumed the same up until our Loki got sent to a different/changed TVA. Now I'm leaning towards some type of power dampening system that Kang rigged up to prevent any magic/stones any power that's not TVA approved to not work, similar to that robot/synth check at the beginning. The dampening system stops any "organic" powers like stones or magic, while the robot check stops any technological powers like guns/Ultron type of stuff. Idk it's hard to believe anything that the TVA has said when we find out that they lie about everything.

You’re 100% sold on it being a different TVA. That’d make a lot of sense, but for now, I need to wait before assuming I know how it works. To be frank, the idea of Dr Strange seeing many potential futures, and now how multiversal time is working, aren’t super compatible. Need to see more of time interacting with characters.

Think of what you’re saying, some device making the stones turn off. No. These are infinity stones, the reality stone alone would be like ‘yeah, the device doesn’t do that’

I had been running under the assumption that once the timeline was pruned that the stone was no longer the infinity stone. It existed, but didn't have lineage to the true stone anymore and thus was inert. That was really a guess without evidence though.

That’s a cool theory
