can we talk about Marvel official website has updated Loki’s bio that confirms the “Loki was under the influence of the mind stone” fan theory?

Not a Loki apologist here, he did what he did, but a lot of stuff, his version of how he fell from the Bifrost, that speech in Germany, especially the “sudden clarity” scene with Thor makes a lot more sense. 

——————————————————————————

*after reading comments on reblogs, I like to stress that “under the influence” and “mind controlled” are very different. This is not a Loki “did nothing wrong” post. His feelings and his actions are his and his along, but the mind stone does heighten and fuel them, it could have influenced him to a point, that he believed that he was “tossed into the abyss”. 

While it was very obvious in film, mind stone did have an effect on not just Loki, but the avengers as well, but this is simply official confirmation of mind stone’s power and influence in Avengers 1. 

*I have no intention of starting a fandom war with this. Please keep calm and write your thesis on character development with civility.
