I mean... Odin was always the worst father ever, i dont know why loki suddenly thought he could trust odin when never before has odin ever been shown to be worthy of trust

Just finished reading this and about 5 more of your stories! i'll go back and review most of them later, but I just wanted to say that I loved this story so much! You have the perfect amount of bittersweetness and pain and love, and you just broke my heart so many times! I both love and hate the way Tony and Loki can't end up together, they were such a good couple and they deserved to be happy! Right now, I'm crying because of Nithhogg and why does he have to come after Loki?! I love Loki and I love stories of Loki being self-sacrificing, but again, this just broke my heart :-(. Thank you for making such an incredible story!

I can’t remember a work that has actually made me cry...but this did. It utterly broke my heart, but I loved every second of it. Thank you so much for writing this, it’s made me SUPER happy!

This was... oh my god. So good. So dark and grim, suspenseful and fateful. I enjoyed every word, every part. The Tony/Loki worked perfectly and how well those two went together, and how cruelly it ended for Loki, was heartbreaking. I'm not sure how I never saw this one on the kink meme (probably just never got to it, that kmeme was sprawling) but it's a simply amazing fill for the prompt. Love how it ties together in the end, neatly and horribly. I love a story that enriches the canon, even at the expense of poor suffering determined Loki. Simply a wonderful, dark fic. Thank you for writing and sharing it.

oh snap

Damn. This is a masterpiece. Perfectly, beautifully woven together; the detail and the emotion you wring out of the audience keeps us completely gripped. God, you tore my heart out. But this was so, so, worth reading.

My heart broke about a dozen times reading this story. Depressing, but amazing nevertheless.

Okay so... I did NOT get this ending. I'm not complaining or saying it's bad, I'm just... not sure I understood. Did Loki decide to go to the Chitauri's home planet and let himself be killed, because he realized the Nithhogg was targeting him specifically and if he were dead and not on Earth then ... everyone would be spared? Or was he hoping to survive long enough there so that Nithhogg would find him there and hopefully destroy Thanos...?

I'm still kind of reeling.

I'll admit, I was expecting something a bit lighter with the summary going "Five times Loki didn't save the world, and one time he did", but as soon as I got through a few chapters and realized there were going to be five failed attempts, I sobered up real quick and got sucked in HARD with this fic.

Aside from not understanding the ending, I enjoyed this. I've been devouring your Loki-centric fics for the past few days (NOT a good thing to have such amazing temptation when I should be busy with schoolwork plus a new job! lol) and you've gotten me completely obsessed with MCU's Loki now. Not that it's such a hard feat, with, you know, Tom Hiddleston. But still.

Funnily enough, I hadn't even thought about any slash pairings in the Avengers universe. I'm no stranger to slash, but somehow the thought just didn't occur to me while watching the films, and I've not read any MCU fanfic so, well... But reading this, Tony and Loki just WORKED. You made it make so much sense and I honestly loved it. I loved the development of their relationship, and I was actually a bit disappointed that it didn't continue past the first time Loki jumped back. (Except for the glimpse of it in the fourth (fifth?) round, but that was kidn of tainted, wasn't it?) Have you considered doing an entire fic just about them? Possibly with a bit less plot and a bit more explicit slash? :P

I've actually been stalking your profile for about a year now. The first of your fics that I ever read was "The Wizards of Ceres" and "The Heralds of the White God" , and BOY did you do KuroFai and just general large-scale awesome fantasy so well! (this all belongs in a proper review for those works so I'll cut the rambling short here - basically, I LOVED IT), and also "Not Quite Paradise" - GOD, does steampunk go well with Tsubasa! :D And then I discovered your FMA fics as well - I specifically remember some of the darker ones...

Then once I finished those, I decided to take a chance on your Loki fics, more out of curiosity than anything else - I completely LOVED "A Villain State of Mind", although to this day I'm not sure which version of Xavier you were using. I like McAvoy's characterization within the "Days of Future Past" timeline, but for "A Villain State of Mind" I could only see Sir Patrick Stewart. Young-Xavier just didn't seem to be mature enough (or, frankly, old enough) to do well against Loki in my opinion, and I honestly couldn't see Loki respecting the younger version; I could, however, see him gravitating towards Stewart's version. I mean, who wouldn't?

Anyway, all of your works deserve proper attention and individual reviews, and I apologize for clumping them all into this one, but I was too lazy to review individually. Too lazy to review at all, in fact, until this piece came along... THIS piece kind of broke me, so I actually dug up my login and password so I could review properly, because I need to figure it out. The ending kind of feels... unresolved, to me.

I hope you get this review (I gather your last update was in 2015, so not sure if you're even still on this site) and possibly reply, because I'm really curious. I came up to the "end" and was like... "...wha?"

So I hope you can shed some light on me, a mere Midgardian mortal, and explain ;)

-Cheers

Depressing, but well written. You can see the key elements from the movie coming together in different loops. I think the sadest part of the story is that for the final round he deliberately shapes himself into a monster so that the people he loves will hate him and not mourn his death. That and the fact that nobody will ever know.

Poor Loki... I... I... Really wanted him to be happy... To... Live happily ever after...

What? ._. my hopes, you just crushed them, I tough he was going to make it eventualy.
But good story anyway, well writhen and well development of the character, was just hoping for a happy ending T_T

I think you broke me... yah. T-T
This was beautiful and so well thought out and planned and amazing and heart wrenching beyond belief, and this is definitely one of the (if not THE) best, most incredible, Loki-centric fanfic I have ever had the pleasure (or maybe pain? I don't even know at this point, you wonderful author you...) of reading.
I especially loved (despaired at?) Loki's gradual desensitization of the horrors around him and of his own actions, and how over time he not only forgot to care for the lives he ended, but about his love for Tony. He loved him SO MUCH at the start, Tony's first death very near destroyed him emotionally and mentally, but by the fourth loop he can't recall how it felt to love Tony anymore. Oh god, and not to mention the way he lied to and used Tony in the fifth loop to get him to build a Bifrost... omg this story is so jacked and screwed and messed and twisted and broken up beyond recognition of the original relatively sane Loki of the first loop and I just- ack, I can't, you've just about rendered me speechless, I will always carry this story in the back of my mind, always in awe of the crazy and horrible things that happened in it that just fit SO disturbingly well together to make the Loki we see in The Avengers.
So yeah. Gorgeous and brilliant and ingenious and all those other awestruck words, amazing job on this story. I loved and despaired and held my breath at every moment of it (and even cried and yelled in disbelief towards the final few chapters). *little hearts (some of them may be broken) everywhere*
(And sorry if I rambled on for too long, I'm just still a bit shocked and getting over the emotional rollercoaster that you just put me through!)

It was sad, one of the most depressing and beautifull stories. Loki, poor, beatifull, mad, misunderstood Loki. He lost everything, even himself amd every new try to save the world only brought him more pain.

Oh god, poor poor Loki. My heart hurts for him and my eyes sting. I really do love this story, despite the tragedy (and I HATE tragedies). It's so wonderfully written, especially the way Loki's sanity slips. Really wish that Loki had his happy ending. T_T He so doesn't deserve this after all the crap he went through even BEFORE the loops.

This is... is... getting somewhat disturbing. Is... is this going to end with the Avengers being the 'one time he did' save the worlds? I really hope not, because Loki deserves his happy ending.
