Has Tom’s personality changed? I’ve been getting some weird vibes. I adore the guy and have for the past decade but there’s just something odd about him lately.
He was VERY excitable, giddy and outspoken back in his early days of fame and it even came out to be such on some of his Twitter exchanges with his fans.
I don’t blame him for guarding himself more and I think he was lost for a while post Ragnarok as a could see a grave depression in his eyes. He gave off the vibe that something ‘terrible’ had happened to him but we’ll probably never know. There were rumours that his address was doxxed and that people went to his house in outrage over the ‘Loki’ show. Fans harass people for the most ridiculous reasons. Especially these days. His partner and co-stars have also been harassed quite relentlessly. 😪
He seems more subdued and withdrawn maybe because of media training, coaching, therapy, mental health reasons or he just put a wall up because of all the harassment. I miss his fun side but luckily it comes out every now and then. 😊 The harshness of Hollywood can definitely change some people more than others.
I think his issues also caused a dip in his acting because he wasn’t up to par in the ‘Essex Serpent’ or ‘Loki.’ He was even looking quite unhealthy in the second season of Loki. Goodness knows what’s going on with him but now that he’s found a partner and some more friends he seems brighter sometimes. But I’m still sensing something a bit ‘off’ with him. I just can’t put my finger on it. I hope he’s all well. The younger Tom seemed like a completely different person and I know that people mature but I just miss his more carefree nature. I still see it in the pics where he’s playing football or being around friends so he might have some insecurity problems. These are obviously just guesses though. I just hope he’s his goofy self with his kid! 😁
“When I was first reading the comics, the relationship with the Enchantress was one of the really fun things I thought would be good to explore, and may have even pitched it to Kevin Feige at some point. Because she is as sneaky and as untrustworthy as he was.
They basically had a really fantastic and twisted relationship until they both say, “You know what? I don’t trust you as far as I can throw you. It’s over.” Because they keep betraying each other, in a way. So it could be good.”
How I feel about this character: mayhaps i stanned back in 2012 🙈 overall a good/interesting character, but not someone i put a lot of energy into!
All the people I ship romantically with this character: uhhhh no one. i didn’t even have loki ships back in 2012.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Loki x being gay.
My unpopular opinion about this character: mcu did a good job with his arc 🤷🏽♀️.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: more screentime with jeff goldblum. also let kid!loki, the best loki, rise.
my OTP: n/a
my cross over ship: n/a
a headcanon fact: i don’t know if i have any loki headcanons? he figures semi-prominently into some of kate and my aus but those can’t really be explained without 45k worth of worldbuilding/plot explanations.
send me a character and 001, 002, or 003 and i’ll tell you my thoughts on them.
remember when everyone transcripted and then adopted tom hiddleston's laugh as ehehehe? because it just came back to me like a slap from Regret herself

"I know, that’s what’s so odd about narrative. People are formed by love and loss. By family, friendship, grief and courage… and failure and heartbreak and fun and all the things that make life colourful and interesting. But the narratives that people then form out of all that colour and interests are always so neat. It’s all chaos." --- Tom Hiddleston, talking about how he's been defined and categorized as an 'Old Etonian', The Evening Standard (2013)
