'It was impossible.
Well.
Don’t let that stop you, O. B. had said.'
I kind of love this fic.
I mean... obviously, because I'm rec'ing, and, also obviously, I tend to say that a lot. But... yeah.
It's... it did not go in the direction I was expecting.
It was thoughtful, and compassionate, and insightful. And well-written.
So... you all know I had no choice at all - when a fic is well-written, I gotta rec., it's the rules.

Anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself - this is a Loki fic.
As in, the Disney+/Marvel series of the same name.
It picks up directly after the dramatic ending of the second series - so yes, the fic is SPOILER-filled.
It's a bittersweet look at the situation at the end of the series, and how things might play out from there.
I can't really say much more without giving it away, but it's heavy on the character study side of things, which I'm a complete sucker for. And, like I said, it goes some places that I was not expecting.
It's also about choices, and determination, in a way that left me uber-impressed.
...It's kind of beautiful, tbh.
Def. worth a read if you're a Loki fan.
A couple of Content Warnings:
- loneliness and isolation
- genocidal intent
- implied mental health problems
- references to torture
...I think that's everything; as always, I might have missed something, so be aware of that.
This week's fic, then, is:

Are you a Loki fan?
Do you like fics that pick up after that ending, or do you prefer to let it lie?

I love when media (fics, art, whatever) picks up after an ending. It gives some closure if the ending was particularly gut wrenching.
ReplyDeleteLol, and that ending most certainly was! <3
