If I hear S*lkis use, "if you complain about how S*lki 'broke up a gay ship between two men', then your misogynistic" one more goddamn time, I'm gonna to tell you off right now:
Most people who don't ship S*lki don't ship Lokius either! Both ships are toxic as shit when you look at them and break down what they actually do to Larry/TVA!Loki! But, since y'all can't go back and look at what people are actually saying, I'll be doing all of you a favor and telling you what people are actually saying instead of pulling the "Every S*lki anti is misogynistic and they just wanted their gay ship to happen" card from their ass.
I want to see Sylvie be a compelling villain for the remainder of the series. She has traits that fit a villain but that is a separate discussion for another day.
If you are not willing to read what I have wrote with a learning eye and can't put your Biases away to learn, and your first instinct is to send DEATH THREATS/KYS messages to me or to other tumblr users (whose posts I have linked here) - DO NOT INTERACT! Please block me and move on!
A quick definition of Domestic Abuse: "'Domestic Abuse' is a very specific category of acts criminal in nature included by not limited to homicide, assault, terroristic threats, kidnapping, criminal restraint, sexual assault, and harassment." It also can be referred to as Domestic Violence or IPV (though there is a slight difference, the DA being more between married couples and DV between non-married partners).
And as mentioned, it isn't strictly for married couples as it also takes place in between the dating scene, too. According to Rewire.org, "'They were more likely to push and shove, to grab, to punch,' [Susan B. Sorenson] explained. 'They were more likely to strangle—some pretty awful behaviors toward a partner. They were also more likely to use a knife, a bat or another kind of weapon. We were not expecting to find this.'"
Sylvie, during the first season's run, has done this list of grievances to/towards Larry/TVA!Loki, but isn't limited to:
-Threatened to/attempted to commit homicide (repeatedly, during episode two, episode three and episode six especially), using a weapon (a machete) and/or her own magic to fling them hard across the floor, bookcase (either by the enchanted individuals [that she enchanted, no one else] see episode two or by her own use) to deliberately cause harm to Larry/TVA!Loki.
-Assaulted Larry/TVA!Loki repeatedly (again, deliberately causing harm to Larry).
-Harasses Larry repeatedly (calling Larry harsh names, insults their plans - all prior to the finale, accuses them of lusting for the throne [when they never wanted the throne - please see Thor {2011} again if you forgot], tells them to shut up harshly when they are offering her support, etc.,).
-Manipulates them emotionally and gaslights them (especially during episode six, gaslits Larry then kisses them as a distraction to grab the TemPad and pushing them to the TVA, where both are still wanted criminals)
And Larry does nothing of the sort in return, only being there to support her all the way; it is only till Episode six when Larry tries to defend themself and to talk to her. They both fight during episode three's opening, yes, but they were both enemies to each other. But even when Larry becomes loyal to her wants and needs, she doesn't remotely return the favor. And before anyone says, "Well, Loki sided with the TVA", they didn't, they never did.
"But Loki's a narcissist, surely it makes sense for his character!" Gosh, y'all are adorably naïve that it makes me sick. Loki isn't a narcissist - they never were (please watch Thor, The Avengers, Thor: The Dark World, Thor: Ragnarök, and Avengers: Infinity War again and pay attention to them closely), nor is this a story of self-love; it is about codependency. Larry is codependent on both Mobius and Sylvie to the point where it isn't a far-fetched guess that Loki, being an abuse victim, would be used to these types of relationships as that is what they are used to/familiar with. Just because something is more familiar doesn't mean it is healthy. Out of the thirteen symptoms presented by MAYO Clinic, Tom's Loki can roughly fit in, maybe, three or four of the symptoms, whereas Sophia's Loki can fit in roughly with eight or nine of the listed symptoms, maybe (I am sure those with Psychology degrees can help in that more than I ever could as I am an animation student). And people who have dealt with narcissistic people in their past have said that Sylvie more aligns with the narcissistic person than Larry does. And y'all, don't say Loki deserved it - who ever deserves to be abused? Loki has been through it enough! They don't need more of it! And if I see another instance where people say, "if I were Sylvie, I would've done worse lmao" I am going to lose it.
Also, I don't want to get onto the "B-but they are not related/not the same person" train, please tell me that, after the show reaptedly told us that they are, again; from to which extent (either the same timeline [very likely as Sylvie and Larry came from a branch on the same timeline, not two separate timelines] or another timeline [which didn't happen till after Sylvie killed HWR]). Also, I don't want to hear people defend/attempt to this transphobic nonsense. Yes, it is transphobic. Everyone on the creative team is Cisgendered and they have made some very, very TERF-ish statements, "jokes" and comments that people are repeating again and again and again to the point it makes me sick. And yes - LGBTQA+ community members can, are, and have been bigots. Doesn't help that Waldron, a known bigot and sexist pig, wrote Sylvie, who ended up being a misogynistic caricature of female characters. So really, you are defending the work of a misogynist.
And, since most of you S*lkis don't ever pay attention and have made it this far - DO NOT SEND DEATH THREATS TO ANYONE!! IT ISN'T HELPING ANYONE! BLOCK AND LEAVE!
