Lol, once you cross a certain threshold of power in the MCU the question becomes more of a jurisdiction issue. Like the stones are infinitely powerful.... Within the confines of their own universe and nowhere else. Omnipotent Almighty God within your universe, just a shiny rock outside of it. TMV's functionally outside the universe so who cares if he plays with a bunch of shiny rocks?
Except for Loki himself? He has wielded both the Mind Stone and the Space Stone. According to the comic accompanying Ragnarok, that was why Strange trapped Loki in a portal and wouldn't confront him.

I mean, you could have told her that they're meaningless right there, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't his first time being threatened. Assuming it was after the reveal of all the stones.
The Stones aren't inert though. It's just that since they're in the TVA. The Stones influence basically has no effect. Doesn't mean they don't work, just not as effective. If you were to take 8 different mind stones outside the TVA to another parallel universe, you'd be unstoppable for about a fraction of a second before you got prunes, for being a jackass.

Funny thing is, many of the space stones are in the open but there's one Tesseract, meaning the free stones come from broken tesseracts Thanos or someone else got through.

Of all the Phase 4 shows and movies, Loki is my absolute favorite. The music, and atmosphere, the comic lores being visualized to absolute perfection, and the depth of character development being demonstrated in such a relatable way to viewers.
I absolutely adore the soundtrack for Loki, which is why it hurts to know that she also did Kenobi's soundtrack; I want to know what went wrong with that one :(
Imagine how traumatic that little scene would be for loki, to see the things both he and almost every cosmic entity would obsess over for centuries to acquire... reduced to nothing more than paperweights or jokes of what they are thought to be. A stone that can grant infinite power... reduced to just a fancy glowing cube in someones desk.
My single absolute most favorite speechless moment in the MCU. After a decade of MCU characters fighting over the stones, everything as I knew it was shattered with the phrase, “we actually get a lot of those, some of the guys use them as paper weights”
*All the people that died over those stones throughout the MCU, and to only find out there was an abundance of them used as paperweights. This kind of reminds me Attack on Titan where the people of Paradis wondered what the special Titans were, and where they came from, sacrificing countless lives for answers, only for Marley to have a file on them in some military guys desk*
To answer almost all the questions I'm seeing in these comments: 1) Infinity Stones do not work outside of their own universe, this is why they can sit around in a junk drawer, they're inert in the TVA, and 2) the time travel that took place in Endgame did not result in alternate universes, the TVA was very clear about that, so the Stones continuing to work there makes sense.
Infinity stones do work outside of their universe, this is explicitly shown in 'What if?' series. The stones do not work at TVA because TVA exists in the Quantum Realm. I say this because Kang is the main villain of Antman 3 and the Quantum realm was the basis for all the time travel in Endgame.
The stones are tied to that universe they came from. When a timeline dies, the stones die as well, or as somebody else put it, the power goes back to the "sacred timeline". They really are just paper weights.
@@andyadinata4191 Nah they ain’t this is the case for the comics & movies. The only one who broke this rule is Infinity Ultron there are some theories that sound like they make sense if you think about it but they are really long so I ain’t going to explain it here.
@@manu201022 Yeah that’s my guess too, although i genuinely believe this was a continuity error in Marvel Studios part, it can basically be retconned that the stones work on other timelines but they don’t work on other dimensions, which i’d like to think of as universes so far removed from the MCU that even the basic laws of their universe are different like that Shang Chi Dimension and the Dark Dimension, or hidden pocket universes like the TVA or the Quantum Realm.
I really wish this scene was shown in a movie, instead of in a series which limited the number of people who can watch it. This scene absolutely shatters all the mcu knowledge we had, and at the same time preps us for the multiverse being set up.
I actually find this to be a underappreciated scene! Over the past decade we had been building up the infinity stones to be this great weapon that can literally kill anybody with a snap of a finger! But here in the TVA we learn that they are considered paperweights shows us that the Multiverse is even more powerful than the infinity stones!
This was such a great scene , both for Loki and the audience . It turned the whole marvel universe on its head . Some have wondered if KC was stealing these from other workers once we saw who he was on the timeline .
@@Mrking-rn6qp I think he meant the original one that the doctor gave Tony in the cave from the surgery in Iron Man. Anyway, it on the top of the screen in the desk.
It's interesting that only the soul stone is the one missing... It would seem that it really is the most difficult stone to find and acquire. Another thing, give those stones to Tony Stark and he'll create a set of super infinity stones that work throughout the multiverse, because TONY ALWAYS LEARNS FROM HIS MISTAKES!!

TVA using the infinity stones as paperweight is like that rich Saudi who lose their millions and be like "i still have another stacks in my other pocket"
I like the fact that of all the stones, there are more time and reality stones total (6-7 Time, 6 reality, 4 power, 2 mind, 1 Space). Makes sense people with time or reality stones would mess up the timeline more often
Imagine loki taking the 6 he needed and giving them to thanos and thanos starts his invasion extremely early, only to lose cause they don't actually work.
Just to be clear, the infinity stones work in the respective universe, so in the TVA which is outside of space and time they are literally just stones.

So the original stones came from a being the only being in the marvel universe for multiple eons until she grew tired of existing alone, so she killed herself and became the stones in order to help shape the universe to allow life in it so that no other creature in the universe would feel alone. The problem is all of them felt alone because that became part of who they are along with the other gifts she gave everyone. Some say that the loneliness feeling, even in a sea of peoples, is the only thing truly leftover from her personality her existence. It's remembered as a feeling in the subconscious of every sentient being. Loneliness.
According to the Marvel Cinematic Universe wikia, Casey is a Variant who is taken by He Who Remains and had his memory suppressed so that he could be a member of the Time Variance Authority, an organization that protected the Sacred Timeline from other kinds of Variants. Following the death of He Who Remains, Loki returned to a TVA run by Kang the Conqueror. With all hands on deck, a variant of Casey was taken and became a Hunter. He reported to the armory with the other Hunters to handle the Multiverse.
Pretty cool now after the season 2 finale, to rewatch this scene... The first stone he touches after he sees all the stones is the time stone... the green stone, his color.
anybody notice how there's no soul stones though? that means gamora and black widow were the first and only people in any timeline to be sacrificed, what strange said is proof too because he led them down the only path where thanos and the avengers got all stones cuz even the other variants from multiverse of madness beat thanos without the stones b4 he could get all 6
Right folks, since Loki has now come to a close I want you to take notice that Loki chooses to pick up the time stone in this episode so early on foreshadowing his fate later in the story
everyone is missing this point. the desk is full of evidence because casey is a professional stealer, and got in jail for that in his original timeline
I often felt it when my age and circumstances changed. sometimes I was happy when many people sympathized with my position but sad when my carrier was revealed as nothing compared to reality.
I liked how in season 1 casey just random desk person, and in season he actually become important role and become one of loki friend that loki wanted to saved
But if Loki put all the stones in his pockets, then the moment he steps out of TVA, into other universe, they will all be activated & he will be strongest being in that universe
I don't know if it's intentional or not but after Casey give him the Space Stone, Loki only hold the Time Stone. You know what happen in Season 2. If it's intentional it was a genius foreshadowing.
Makes sense. In your universe, the infinity stones might be unique items, but in a multiverse, they are not. And since the security protocols of the TVA can disable any form of magic powers, they don't even do anything there. But this reminds me that they disabled the security in Loki season 2. Theoretically, they could know equip their people with this stones, it would make the hunt for dangerous variants of Kang a lot more easy.
But that would also mean that the kangs would have all their powers too which would be way too much for some infinity stone’s especially because some of these kangs were really op so it wouldn’t be worth
That plan would only work if they pop back into the same universe they collected the stones from. And I don't imagine they can because these are from pruned timelines. The stones only work in their own universes, outside of it, they are just cool rocks.
@Treestump7271 Actually, according to the screenwriter for that episode, he clarified that the Stones work on beings from the same universe. So he was using them as means of power to charge himself up.

Think about all the pain and effort Thanos went through just to get something that pretty much as useless as a paper weight
Pretty cool now after the season 2 finale, to rewatch this scene... The first stone he touches after he sees all the stones is the time stone... the green stone, his color.
What a cool scene, what a great way to shift the power dynamic.
This actually make me realize , Kang if he wanted he can rebuild the Infinity Stones or steal from a different timeline to use in this universe.
I loved how the very things a whole decades worth of movies were set up around were reduced to the same value as paper weights in seconds
Helmets as paperweights
Then an alternate thanos on seeing it.... Would attack directly on TVA
everything is pointless now.
anybody notice how there's no soul stones though? that means gamora and black widow were the first and only people in any timeline to be sacrificed, what strange said is proof too because he led them down the only path where thanos and the avengers got all stones cuz even the other variants from multiverse of madness beat thanos without the stones b4 he could get all 6
Right folks, since Loki has now come to a close I want you to take notice that Loki chooses to pick up the time stone in this episode so early on foreshadowing his fate later in the story
And the fact that it’s green! 😉🟢
Also true, there are a lot of nods and we don’t even know if that was intentional
they mustve been pruning a lot of dr strange, to get that many time stones lmao
I love the extra items in there, Tony’s copper magnet from inside of his chest, a random legionnire de honour and a saints cross
Love how he casually just holds the tesseract 😭
everyone is missing this point. the desk is full of evidence because casey is a professional stealer, and got in jail for that in his original timeline
To this day, Casey still doesn't know what a fish is.
I often felt it when my age and circumstances changed. sometimes I was happy when many people sympathized with my position but sad when my carrier was revealed as nothing compared to reality.
I liked how in season 1 casey just random desk person, and in season he actually become important role and become one of loki friend that loki wanted to saved
Sacred timeline: infinity stones are the powerful things in the universe
TVA: hey guys! A new paperweight!
He should have taken all types of stones, then use it outside tva
If he feels that bad. Imagine Thanos who spent his whole life collecting those.
Worse. Just imagine the people who struggled and/or died in the entire Infinity Saga for these stones. This scene made it all seem like a joke.
Loki's hand looks so nice.
But if Loki put all the stones in his pockets, then the moment he steps out of TVA, into other universe, they will all be activated & he will be strongest being in that universe
I can’t imagine how Loki feels, for gods, Thanos, and the Kree struggle to get magic pebbles yet that are considered “paperweight” by the TVA staff. 🤣
I don't know if it's intentional or not but after Casey give him the Space Stone, Loki only hold the Time Stone. You know what happen in Season 2. If it's intentional it was a genius foreshadowing.
I like how he grabbed the time stone out of any other.
Poor Loki looks like he got his world rock by the ultimate truth
It was at this moment loki knew he fd up
Lol the tragic music makes it even better
I hope Casey is in the next episode
Some infinities are simply bigger than other infinities.
Someone's treasure is someone else's paperweight
I need me some Paper weight infinity stones
😔 the moment we saw that scene.. it breaks our heart..
Human: what's your ability?
Stones: we could erase the half universe..
tva: hold my beer..
This is like that one comic book where Thanos and Darkseid fight and Thanos was surprised because his little glove isn't working anymore.
Makes sense. In your universe, the infinity stones might be unique items, but in a multiverse, they are not. And since the security protocols of the TVA can disable any form of magic powers, they don't even do anything there.
But this reminds me that they disabled the security in Loki season 2. Theoretically, they could know equip their people with this stones, it would make the hunt for dangerous variants of Kang a lot more easy.
But that would also mean that the kangs would have all their powers too which would be way too much for some infinity stone’s especially because some of these kangs were really op so it wouldn’t be worth
That plan would only work if they pop back into the same universe they collected the stones from. And I don't imagine they can because these are from pruned timelines. The stones only work in their own universes, outside of it, they are just cool rocks.
@@Makerkiddo no in what if ultron could still use the stones outside of his universe but you may be right about the pruned timeline part
@Treestump7271 Actually, according to the screenwriter for that episode, he clarified that the Stones work on beings from the same universe. So he was using them as means of power to charge himself up.
@@Makerkiddo cool
Nemesis must be rolling in her cosmic grave at this
