So in Thor: Ragnarok, on Sakaar. Thor says he and Loki are brothers and Loki repliesĀ āAdoptedā.
Letās assume that got back to Valkyrie, so she knows theyāre brother but that they are not blood related. And that is all she knows.
Now letās further assume that HelaāsĀ āYou donāt look like himā had some truth to it and that Thor physically takes after Frigga. Meanwhile, Loki and Hela have the same coloring and general build, And Loki has Odinās fast-talking.Ā
So what if, not knowing the particular of how Loki and Thor happened to become brothers, sheās assumes Thor is adopted one?
What if she doesnāt learn otherwise until some time into the trek to Earth?
BecauseĀ I canāt sleep anyway:
Valkyrie for what is probably the fifth time in as many days:Ā āBut are you sure heās not the one whoās adopted?ā
Thor getting seriously exasperated: āI solemnly swear on the roots of Yggdrasil that I am, to the best of my knowledge, The blood son of Odin and Frigga of Asgard.ā
*a beat*
Thor:Ā ā⦠Of course 8 years ago I would have sworn the same thing about Loki.ā
*Another beat*
Thor:Ā ā⦠And I would have called myself their firstborn. So I will grant thatĀ āto the best of my knowledgeā may not be particularly reliable, but Iām not the one who turns blue.ā
Loki, from the sideline: āThat can be arranged.ā *makes ominous gesture*
thor ragnarok fight scene but holding out for a hero is playing
I was fluttery and charmed and delighted by one of my fave cheesy songs x Chris Hemsworth the Lightning God, but then Valkyrie came on and I made this involuntary guttural moaning sound and sank into the couch with my legs spread.
Hhhhhhholy shit. Hhhhholy SHIT can I please just ⦠UGH.
I just have a lot of feelings about Valkyrie in Thor: Ragnarok being a woman character thatās allowed to be a fucking mess at the start and still be aĀ āgoodā character. TheĀ ādrunk as fuck, total mess, still goodā thing is usually reserved for dude characters.Ā
I have this feeling about Jessica Jones, too. The fact that she’s fucked up, she drinks too much, she has sex for the wrong reasons with the wrong people, she’s got PTSD, she doesn’t want to be a hero, but she IS the hero.
iām 101% sure that this entire line was improv and tom couldnāt help it
āYeah, that was basically, we did about six different versions of that story, and that was just us standing around while the cameras were rolling and I would just feed them lines and feed Chris ideas for stories. Iād say,Ā āDo another one, in this one say: āI was walking through a field, and I saw a lovey Turkish rug in the middle of the grass, and I love Turkish rugs, so I went to stand on it, and it was Loki, and he turned back into Loki and there was a hole and I fell through the hole was was impaled on a whole lot of spikes.āā So we did versions of that, and the one with the snake just ended up being the one we used.ā
