I have a feeling that a certain set of people have such an unhealthy parasocial relationship with Loki, to the point they can't stand him being married, especially with Sigyn
Sigyn is literally the Norse Goddess of Fidelity and Victory. One can say she may be a Norse counterpart of Nike ( Greek Goddess of Victory )
Actually I experience Sigyn as being kinda like a mix of Nike and Persephone in some lights
Regarding to the Marvel Comics, I'm just glad that after all that, Sigyn doesn't have to come back in the Marvel Comics. I have this theory that she consciously chose not to reincarnated in the ' rebirth of Norse Gods ' in the Marvel Comics ( too much trauma ) and chose to live her life/afterlife in peace in Valhalla
Or she can chose to be reincarnated in another timeline where she can be loved and respected by many ( like in my MCU fics ) cuz that's fine too
I find Sigyn to be an interesting goddess because there is so much of her left to be interpreted. There is barely any mythology about her, which does leave a lot open for creative liberties when it comes to interpretations of her.
Sigyn can go from being a non-violent, sophisticated lady
Or
A loving wife who is stronged willed but enjoys the femmine and softer aspects of life
To a war-torn valkyrie and a victory goddess that stands for peace and loyalty
Or
Rather, a bit more violent type victory goddess who wants to see victory within battle and bloodshed (and may or may not be a little morally ambiguous)
There are so many different ways to portray her!
But one thing stays the same no matter what version of her there is , she will still always love Loki and her family ๐๐
I just wish modern media would stop treating Sigyn as the "abused wife" or the "other woman" when that doesn't speak to her character at all. Rather, those are just poor interpretations of her.
#sigyn#loki#like i get it the sigyn hate discourse is CRAZY#its like hating on persephone or mary magdalene just because they are wives of powerful deities/saints#and ofc they and sigyn dont fit some people's tradwife ideas EVER#Persephone's arc is literally a testament of girlhood to womanhood#mary magdalene's is an epitome of redemption#sigyn's is preserverance and victory over darkness even at high stakes
