This Made Me Cry For A Solid 20 Minutes So Hard My Family Had To Leave The Room For A Bit Not Knowing

This made me cry for a solid 20 minutes so hard my family had to leave the room for a bit not knowing what to do.

MANTIS MEETING LOKI

A Concept I Would Just Die For…

Just Mantis, meeting Loki for the first time and touching him, feeling all the pain, torment and sorrow he’s been keeping inside his heart.

She would feel his disappointment and sadness for always being second, always being not as good as Thor, but she would also feel his deep love for his brother, that love that his jealousy never overshadowed.

The fact that he was deeply admiring and proud of his brother, despite living in his shadow.

She would feel how lost and lonely he is, how misunderstood he always was.

The women would be surprise by the beauty of his unconditional love for his mother and the pain of her loss. His hatred for his father, who failed to love him as a son. The desperation of growing in a lie, of not knowing, who you are or where you truly belong.

Mantis would feel his entire life and found herself crying at the pain that had grown in his soul and was slowly and forever devouring him.

The women would drown in all his feelings, all the torture and the solitude. Lullabied by the constant crying and screaming of the suffering god.

She would then let go of his hand and step back, as tears ran down her face.

There is a thousand things she would like to tell him at this moment. Questions and apologies… A million words. Maybe as an ingenuous attempt to heal him.

They would then exchange a deep look as everyone around would fail to understand what happened between them…

For a second only, he would let her see what she just felt, all the despair in his eyes.

Loki and Mantis would both fix each other for a long time before the god finally decides to look away.

Loki would raise his head putting back a proud and indifferent mask on his face, pretending nothing happened…

But no matter what… no matter how…

Mantis will never be able to unsee the crying Loki.

The one asking for answers. She would never be able to unfeel the Broken Loki…

Screaming for help…

Lottie is Gay and Doesn’t Know It

1. She is exclusively attracted to princes, despite having never met one.

She won’t even DANCE with boys at her party who aren’t princes despite thinking they’re good boys who would treat girls well (she advises the boy she doesn’t want to dance with to find someone eager to dance with him, rather than tell him to go home).

To me this comes across as her choosing “prince” as the ideal that she finds attractive solely because it’s theoretical, the imaginary Perfect Boy who doesn’t exist. This is common among young people who aren’t exposed to homosexuality but don’t feel attraction to people like they’re “supposed” to.

2. She’s never comfortable around Naveen, always thinking about things that have or could go wrong.

Part of this self-consciousness is obviously because he’s a fake, but even when she’s set for marriage and all her dreams are coming true she’s antsy and upset and lashes out at her dad while trying to over-please the fake Naveen.

She also glances nervously at the priest right before the pronunciation, as though still dwelling on things that could go wrong rather than her happy moment–and this is the scene in which she’s been the MOST visibly relaxed with the prince.

She’s realized something’s wrong with HER not feeling attracted to the prince, despite him being “perfect” for all intents and purposes, and she doesn’t know why that is.

3. She doesn’t kiss Naveen right away despite saying in the opening that she’d kiss 100 frogs if it meant becoming a real princess.

Tiana interrupts her sure but only AFTER she’s been counting and recounting Naveen’s story back to him. She’s stalling because she doesn’t want to lock herself into another marriage with someone she’s not attracted to.

4. She doesn’t actually want to marry a prince, she just wants to be a princess. When she’s proposed to she barely pays any attention to her rapidly-transforming, lying fiancee because she’s so enamored with the image of herself as royalty. She actually shoves him away.

5. She’s absolutely in love with Tiana and still doesn’t know it.

She compliments Tiana more than any man in the film. She respects all of Tiana’s life decisions even if she doesn’t even slightly understand them because of their different perspectives, supports her dream of a restaurant even if she doesn’t share it, and is willing to give up potential romance with a prince, the thing she has dreamed about all her life, at the drop of a hat to comfort a humiliated Tiana.
