Loki 10 years ago:

ALL OF THIS!!!!!

The horrifying part is that, PER CANON the *only* thing we even SUSPECT Loki did *in his right mind* was letting the Jotuns into the Vault. But even THAT, insofar as I’m aware, can be questioned, because we never SEE him do it. He just takes credit for it with Laufey. It may have been confirmed somewhere, but if so, I’ve not seen it or heard about it.

Literally everything else he’s done in the movies has been AFTER getting the mindscrew from hell (the discovery that he’s Jotun), then torture, mind control, and all KINDS of further fuckery.

And even out his damn mind, he fought tooth and nail to keep collateral damage and civilian casualties as low as he could.

The Destroyer? Contrary to Fury’s claims, wrecks ONE STREET and it didn’t look like there was even one civilian casualty. And most of the property damage was thanks to Thor using a fucking tornado.

Avengers? HAH. Sit there and tell me someone with Loki’s brains and charisma couldn’t have played that ENTIRE DAMN INVASION completely differently if he’d ACTUALLY wanted to conquer Earth. And that ‘80 people in three days’ crack was probably the collapse of the PEGASUS facility - something Loki had ZERO control over. Yeah, he directly killed some folks there, but, like, half a dozen or so. Not eighty.

it doesn’t make the Destroyer attack or his other actions *right*, but goddamn. When your brain is scrambled six ways from Sunday, you’ve CANONICALLY tried to commit SUICIDE, been tortured and etc, it damn sure EXPLAINS why you’re doing what you’re doing.
