For years, Loki hid behind a mask of mischief and sarcasm. He used betrayal as a way to shield himself from being hurt. He often acted as if nothing mattered, as if he needed no one. But deep inside, there was always a longing: the quiet, aching kind that is easy to ignore until it bursts out.
This sentence reveals the part of Loki that is rarely seen. It is the child who felt second to Thor, the man who was never quite accepted, the soul who always felt like he was standing just outside the circle. His need for connection was never about needing attention or power. It was about wanting to be seen, truly seen, and still accepted.
When he finally admits that he does not want to be alone, it is not a moment of weakness. It is a moment of clarity. It shows that beneath all the magic, all the titles, and all the timelines, there is still a person who longs for closeness, for trust, for a sense of belonging.
This is what makes Loki so relatable. Despite being a god, his pain is deeply human. His story is not just about identity or power. It is about loneliness. It is about wanting to matter to someone. And perhaps the most powerful thing he has ever done is not to wield a weapon or break a timeline, but to look someone in the eye and say the truth: he does not want to be alone.
