“#’Loki’ Could Feature the MCU’s Weirdest Romance Ever<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

[WARNING: The following contains MAJOR spoilers for Loki<\/em>, episodes 1-3.]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Loki<\/em> might take \u201clove yourself\u201d to a whole new level.<\/p>\n

In \u201cLamentus,\u201d viewers were treated to an hour of \u201cgetting-to-know-you\u201d hijinks on a crumbling planet with Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and \u201cLady Loki,\u201d Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino), who went from enemies to friends throughout the course of 40ish minutes. But there were times when it almost \u2014 almost<\/em> \u2014 seemed like there was more than alternate universe-related friendly curiosity brewing between them\u2026 and we\u2019re not sure how to feel about that.<\/p>\n

Whether or not you saw sparks between the Lokis, it\u2019s undeniable that certain aspects of the episode had a not-entirely-platonic undertone. When Sylvie tries to enchant Loki, the way the characters are positioned and the scene is framed suggests they could kiss; Loki drunkenly serenades her in the bar car on the train and dedicates the song to her, which is, again, usually romantic. Their constant bickering could be viewed as sibling-like, but given how many love interests in media<\/a> start out the same way \u2014 at each other\u2019s throats constantly to mask a growing attraction \u2014 it could signal something deeper.<\/p>\n

Also interesting is the fact that they have an entire conversation about the nature of love, a subject we\u2019ve never seen Loki show even the slightest interest in before \u2014 and he brings it up, curious to know whether she\u2019s involved with anyone. She mentions a postman, which is probably a joke. But the fact remains \u2014 why does Loki care in the first place? And more importantly, wait, are we supposed to be rooting for this<\/em>?<\/p>\n

The \u201cethics\u201d of it are murky, no doubt. Like, is getting together with a duplicate of yourself similar to getting together with a cousin, or even a sibling? (Jaime and Cersei Lannister of Game<\/a> of Thrones<\/em> would no doubt app<\/a>rove.) Sylvie has rejected the name \u201cLoki\u201d and wasn\u2019t raised by Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and Frigga (Renee Russo), but at the end of the day, she\u2019s still a version of Loki himself, which makes this whole hypothetical thing\u2026 awkward. Now, if Sylvie ends up not being a Loki variant at all and the fan theories about her being Enchantress end up coming true, it\u2019d be much easier to \u2018ship these two. But that doesn\u2019t seem likely after \u201cLamentus,\u201d since she has knowledge of Loki\u2019s backstory and Lady Loki\u2019s familiar helmet.<\/p>\n

On some level, even though it\u2019s wacky, a romance between Loki and his variant-self would make sense. Loki is absolutely narcissistic enough that we could see him falling in love with himself; in fact, given that he\u2019s still Avengers<\/em>-era Loki who tried to conquer Earth only days earlier, it\u2019s kind of hard to see him falling for anyone else. Maybe Mobius (Owen Wilson), now that it\u2019s been confirmed Loki is canonically bisexual \u2014 but we\u2019re not holding our breaths, considering showrunner Michael Waldron made it clear in an interview with Vanity Fair<\/em><\/a> that there is love between the duo, but whatever affection exists isn\u2019t romantic.<\/p>\n

In that same interview, Waldron stated that there are \u201clove stories\u201d running through Loki<\/em>. One is Loki and Mobius\u2026 but where are the rest? With three episodes left in the season, we haven\u2019t seen a whole lot of love; just a lot of time-related shenanigans. And in an interview with Collider<\/em><\/a>, Hiddleston, speaking on the subject of a hypothetical love interest for the god of mischief, said that \u201cthe first stable relationship you have to have is with yourself,\u201d which, technically, since Sylvie is himself, Loki could do both.<\/p>\n

One of Waldron\u2019s love stories could certainly be Loki and Sylvie; platonically, as versions of the same person who understand each other\u2019s pain\u2026 or, uh, all of that, but not platonically. We\u2019ll just have to wait and see if this heads in a Game of Thrones<\/em> direction, or if Loki gets a love interest this season at all (he might not, and that\u2019s fine). But in the meantime, there\u2019s no denying that the Loki-Sylvie dynamic is fun to watch.<\/p>\n
