The backstory of OB wanting people to appreciate his writing really makes the scene where Casey wants his autograph hit so much harder now.

[MayneTheConqueror]

Loki has the potential to have one of the best (if not THE best)character arcs in MCU history. From “God of Mischief” to “God of Purpose”

[forevertai]

Craziest thing about Loki is that he always knew he was created for a glorious purpose. He just never knew what that purpose was. And because of his upbringing with Odin and Thor, he always felt out of place in their shadow. So he spent his life trying to get out of it in the wrong ways. Look at how far he has come. ❤

[burneyboys]

I think by the end of the season Loki is definitely going evolve this multiverse a lot more differently than we expected.

[lixtenant]

I love how Loki is becoming such an important part of the MCU, and how he could save the whole MCU as a whole in the fiction world as well as ours. Can't wait to see what they do with this character and what other potentials he has that we don't even know about.

[jeremypainter]

Another note, Loki has said "I promise you this will all make sense." 3 times through out the second season

[bodydoublesecurity]

Now it makes sense that his name is Oroborus. The snake that eats it's own tail is also represented by Jormungar, the world snake. Jormungar is also a child of Loki.

[michaelharig]

Odin told young Thor and young Loki both were destined to rule; Loki’s kingdom apparently is time and space

[lakshithr]

With very episode Loki & his *STORY* keeps getting ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!

[ritikamudabidri]

2:52 I feel like Doug writing about characters like Loki could also have something to do with him dreaming about his variant self in the TVA doing OB things. Like Wanda and Victor Timely dreaming (and I’m Wanda’s case living through) their variant’s lives.

Gotta reset the whole MCU…
Loki: I’ll do it myself

He was right thanos will never be a god on his level

[LilaElizabethD]

I’m rewatching Loki Season 1 before the finale & in episode 1 Loki says ‘You ridiculous bureaucrats will not dictate how my story ends!’ They’ve been setting up the God of Stories era this whole time :)

[joannethorne]

Wait. Ravonna hunted Lokis, as per HWR request. AND...Ravonna gave Victor a T.V.A book to apparently reboot things.
BUT NOW, Loki has given OB a T.V.A book. We've got two different people doing the same thing!
Is that why Lokis were hunted, to stop THE ONE (forseen)from restarting the T.V.A, without a Kang in charge? Is this all boiling down to a power play for Control of the T.V.A?

[joedadbod]

Loki always self-described himself as being filled with glorious purpose, and it's so fun to see that purpose being fulfilled on this series in a way that both we, and he didn't expect!

It's kind of funny how Loki talked about how he saw Thor change in his character from an arrogant leader to a more humble one, and now it's echoed in him as well.

[Just_Joe]

I have been thinking about that ever since he time-slipped the first time - the whole plot is basically a time paradox in which he brought himself to the TVA in order to create it one day in the "future".

[SophiaAphrodite]

I Assume that the only way to fix time is for Loki to put himself back into the timeline. Remember he pruned himself from it. Which might be why he can navigate through it up to the point of being pruned. Maybe he will have to go back in to keep the timelines from fraying. He is the glue by which time is held together. He lives all stories at once.

[itsTHCHURCHyo]

In the episode 1 of season 1 when Mobious is questioning Loki he asks what Loki wants to rule.. Loki says earth and then Mob says something like why stop there.. why not rule space.. Loki king of space
Maybe they were letting us know the future of Loki back then 👀

[davidh]

This is what I thought too.
The members of the TVA are variants that got taken from their timelines. That's exactly what Loki did last episode.

[davidtekeste]

The scene where obi tells loki one of his story character came to life reminds me of the episode of supernatural where Chuck (God) tells the winchester’s he was a god. At the time it was disguised as a joke but it was really foreshadowing his future reveal as god. It feels like OB is doing some foreshadowing here. You have to be a supernatural fan to understand this haha
