How to write a Loki? Loki is a character, considered, liar, treacherous and cheating, all adjectives that many people see as part of a villain, however, if a person has all these characteristics and acts on the right side and for the greater good, he has a better chance to succeed in his mission than someone honest and honorable. Let's talk about Loki, He is capable of being a spy that deceives anyone or cosmic being, with the exception of Verity Willis (his best friend) who has the power to detect lies and illusions. Imagine Loki, who doesn't need to disguise himself, because he's a shapeshifter, he can become the President, the owner of the building he wants/needs to break into, the villain who is planning something to know about the plan, and besides, he can pretend you're infiltrated on the heroes' side, gain the villain's trust and then betray him. All this advantage is not gained with honesty and honor if Loki changes to become a hero. What is the advantage? His unique style is able to make him succeed in any mission, exactly because he has a reputation as a villain, allowing him to infiltrate criminal organizations to act at the right time, and transform into someone else when someone is chasing him. Such an interesting Character and with so many story possibilities. Why did they use Loki in Season 1 without letting him have his way? Why would you try to change it knowing that his style conquered the world? Although History was not his, but it should be because the name of the series is Loki, even in the films in Thor where History is not just him, he had more prominence than in his solo series. He was the god Of Mischief and acted on the right side in Thor The Dark World saves Jane Foster and Thor Ragnarok saving the people of Asgard..And always with amazing catchphrases "Your savior is here. Do you miss me?". Or "Oh, you're too desperate to ask me for help." Or "It's so strange to see you like this, brother, so clandestine." Phrases that marked Loki that even when he is threatened, he ironizes that there will be a daughter or "It's great to see you Lady Sif" In his solo series, he was humiliated and cried all the time seeking attention from Mobius and Sylvie who only disagreed with him in everything and the script insisted on putting her as right in everything and he was wrong in everything, even the series being his.. She is not a Loki, she changed to Sylvie, if you accept that, you cannot argue that she was a Loki too. The creators themselves admitted that she was Sylvle Lushton with a different origin, so... What was the reason for changing the character's origin? It would be the perfect Nexus, when a human gain magical powers without knowing why, and then discovering that Loki was responsible for ruining her life, it would be more dynamic and would return the prominence to Loki, because Sylvie would be running away from TVA but wanting to kill who put her in this situation, Loki himself, that wouldn't change the fact that the series will open the Multiverse, it would just give Loki the lead, which he didn't have, the script needed a little more, the dialogues seemed improvised and didn't turn out good, it seemed that Loki was common, and the common isn't interesting ..
I would very much like the creators of Loki to think Loki in Season 2, not just the supporting characters, Loki has been in UCM for ten years but hasn't had his depth in his past scars shown, I hope there are flashbacks to his past, in competitions against Thor where Odin favored Thor, this refers to a kind of racism because he is an ice giant, perhaps this isn't important for the creators but many people identify with this type of persecution, and not only that. As it was the whole year he spent with Thanos after falling from Bifrost? You can do as in Arrow that the villains appeared on the island where Oliver Queen was shipwrecked but they were friends of his and something happened to make them want revenge on Oliver, it would be interesting to do this with Loki, it's a whole new story, but interesting because it's personal, another possibility is Jotunhein. But, I think about Doctor Doom a lot, because at the same time he goes after Loki because he saw that in the future Loki would destroy the world or it happened only in his reality, he could be a bullshit threat to TVA because of the foundation of the future. . There are many possibilities for Loki to act on the right side being who he is, because what was in the series, it was not interesting, many people who liked the series, only saw the Multiverse and the possibility of seeing the X-Men, the 3 Spiderman together . They weren't Loki fans, true fans missed the god of mischief and his cheating, in his actions and his magic being used in battle and not just for fun. Hopefully Season 2, Loki will be the center of the story and have his unforgettable Jack Sparrow lines "Close your eyes and pretend it's all a dream, that's how I escape" these kind of lines Jack used to say are similar to Loki's phrases and plot, journey or story, as you prefer to call season 2 could think of something like Ethan from Mission Impossible, they change their face when they need to deceive people I thought of as trickster and are spies, everything Loki would do easily and perfectly because he's a shapeshifter. Focus on him, it's a plea from the fans because he's interesting like that and not like he was in the series, he seemed like an ordinary person, nothing ordinary is interesting, what's attractive about Loki is that he's different, forget the requests to add something, think about him, represent him.
But, Waldron and tram wanted Sylvie as a villain, love interest and victim at the same time, in a show that wasn't her own. And Loki has unbelievable stories to be all of that and even though the show is his, they didn't think about writing something for him, they just used the woman to get the show's story directed to her.
