open letter time!

(I am not actually put out; I am Getting Things Done & mainlining Castle in between, and it is in fact impossible to be disgruntled whilst mainlining Castle.)

Dear Thor fandom,

Loki is not delicate and weepy. Seriously, please stop that. I know he spends most of the film with tears in his eyes and I know that he has a slight build compared to Thor, but this is no excuse. Loki is a calculating manipulative bastard who feels everything and doesn't function well in a culture where "JUST HIT THINGS" is the solution, and that is much, much more interesting than one-note woobiness. Make a note of this, and go rewatch the movie or read some comics or some myths or -- fuck it, DWJ's Eight Days of Luke, I don't care. Just fix this.

Carry on with the Thor/Loki, though, that's pretty awesome.

Sincerely,
Aria

PS -- it's "Warriors Three" not "Warrior's Three," DESTROY YOUR APOSTROPHIES. They are not three people who belong to a warrior, they are three awesome warriors + Sif, who is too cool for this shit anyway. Thank you.

UNFORTUNATELY, Loki wants Thor's respect too damn much for it not to be about Thor at least a little bit.

....this sounds familiar.

Mmmm, yeah -- they are deliciously tangled up in each other.

This is why 'morally ambiguous control freaks' in one of my LJ interests. I might as well own up to it.
