In all of my overwhelming panic, I forgot that I started this account in the first place so that I could rant about thins.
And boy do I have an upheaval of things to express.
That fucking issue. I ACTUALLY HAD HAPPY/AMBIVALENT FEELINGS ABOUT IT! In my rush to get to the end and see how it all ended, I wasn't actually absorbing what was happening. For some reason, I actually thought we got to keep kid Loki and that he had pulled some badass move by killing that FUCKING bird with his teeth. So then I went on to assume that the point of Young Avengers would be to combat Mephisto (because my reading comprehension was seriously lacking).
So there I am, living in my bubble of bliss when I decide to finally click on over to Tumblr. Then my bubble was shredded with a baseball bat covered in spikes.
I misread the ending, and it turns out it's back to old Loki, but he's just skinwalking in the kid's body. NOT WHAT I WANTED. FARTHEST THING FROM WHAT I WANTED. So now that bro hug (that beautiful bro hug which was the only thing I actually wanted from the arc) is the most bittersweet thing in the world.
Once again, Thor trusts Loki, but IT'S NOT THE LOKI HE SHOULD BE TRUSTING!! IT'S LIKE LADY LOKI ALL OVER AGAIN. FUCK.
So now Young Avengers plummets from "must buy". Though I must say that now I'll probably give Sif's run a decent try since the ending of this arc has left me with bad juju. I mean, it's a good ending, but I'm going through some IRL things right now so this wasn't what I needed.
Now I'm going to give my story the fluffiest goddamn ending ever.
