I was not prepared for how quickly this got as dark as it did. I'm very glad to know I'm not alone in the Mobius-hating, and I'm very excited to see how you'll go with this. To me, Mobius has always been the subtly manipulative and twisted kind of character that feels very easy to like until you start thinking about the things he says and does and then he's very very easy to hate. I'm excited to see how you'll portray that, except maybe you're going for a less subtle angle that's just blatantly awful - hence the torture lol
Also I felt that bit towards the end, Loki's "out of the frying pan into the fire" moment where he thinks to himself that "There was never going to be a different way this story ends. Just Loki, broken on the floor, defeated. Over and over again." That was heartbreaking. The despair is so tangible it's astounding. Through my tears I must commend you. Thanks for writing this!

Damm what a start! This will be a much darker version of the show and I'm here for it!

Poor Loki! Goes from one master to another! I always thought Marvel kinda failed to highlight the abuse Loki endured from Thanos. Your fic is actually more realistic in terms of how Loki would be feeling in the TVA the show was much more light hearted but here realistically Loki would be truly scared, he would have PTSD from being tortured by Thanos. The Thanos thing has only just happened recently so Loki suddenly being thrown in to the TVA those painful memories are gonna be fresh and raw there will be moments of flashbacks, anxiety and even defeat after all Loki thought he was finally free then he had that all ripped away from him he had hope taken away from him.

I loved Mobius in the show but it seems here he will be slightly different. Interesting on the comparisons between him and Thanos both presented themselves as kind and helpful but Loki can see there's something darker underneath it all there's an motive they both want to use him. The torture was just heartbreaking :(

Who is the woman? Is that Sylvie? Has to be Sylvie surely? It seems her story will be different compared to the show? Has she submitted to the TVA? Been forced to work with them? She said we all break here so has she been through the same thing that Loki is currently going through right now? Is she still a Loki variant? It keeps being mentioned how she is similar looking to Frigga could she be a Thor variant? A female Thor?

So Loki has now given in. What will the TVA want him to do? I can't wait to see where you take this.

I’m so glad to see this fic finally! :D I’m sooo excited for it. 3 I really like how you wrote Loki’s thoughts and feelings, right after he escaped with the Tesseract. I can’t even imagine the relief he must feel, at the knowledge that he got away and can disappear and hide from Thanos… only for the TVA to show up. Loki being mistreated and manhandled at the TVA was awful, especially since he’s going through extreme dissociation. Oof. He needs a hug or a million. Dumping water on him to break him out of the episode is the absolute worst thing they could have done. What is wrong with them?! I already wish this is what we got to see in the series. Lol. And I’m sooo curious to see what you’ve got planned! “Men who have kind eyes but black souls.” Sooo accurate. I really like how Loki is drawing all the parallels between the TVA and Thanos. It’s so awful, even if it’s realistic. The blonde woman who’s accompanying them… Hm. Mobius pretending to be nice and kind when he’s anything but is so awful. I love how you’ve written it, since it puts everything in the series into a whole new perspective for me. Poor Loki. Oof. Mobius claiming that they’ll only keep Loki for a few days until they’ve gotten his help… I really hope that he finds a way out. He deserves better. ;-; Them cutting off his magic like that, and then torturing him until he breaks and agrees to help, was horrific. But it’s also very realistic with what I’d expect from them, given what we saw of them. I liked Loki thinking about Thor and how much he means to him. The woman warning Loki to give in because they’ll get their way eventually, and he doesn’t need to make it worse for himself… I really suspect she might be Sylvie. I wonder what her backstory is in here. I can’t wait to see what will happen next! I loved this chapter so much! :D
