Astolat, Thor/Loki and Tom Hiddleston
Huh, a while back I was doing all these fandom related posts and not finishing them and now I'm watching Rizzoli and Isles instead of studying. I love this show. As usual, could care less about the crime, just in it for the relationships, in this case the wonderful friendship (I try to slash them but they keep inconviently falling in love with dudes).
The other week I randomly decided to make a list of my top ten fave fics. I could only do it with qualifications - three out of 10 were by Astolat and were followed by '...and then I have to go and read several other of her fics in that fandom'
So Astolat. Zebra describes her writing as 'wish-fulfilment' rather than realistic, which is true, but she can convince me of nearly anything, I say nearly because there was a dark, dark time when she was writing nothing but American Idol RPF which, just no, on both counts.
But now she's writing Thor/Loki. I love her writing, so I read some, even though I''m not really into either incest or gods slash, but it took a couple of epic, plotty ones to really hook me.
Stayed up way too late last night reading this one - Chaos War (34k) It was never easy to find Loki when he wanted to hide, but he wasn't doing a particularly good job of it at the moment. Probably he didn't think anyone from Asgard would be wasting their time hunting for him while the shining ones churned their way steadily through all the realm.
All her Avengers/Thor fics on AO3 - I do avoid the ones with rape warnings though, so I haven't read them all.
I like Tom Hiddleston - he's funny, gracious and articulate. (if anyone has any dirt, please don't tell me)
Tom Hiddleston on the Importance of Super Hero Films
Tom Hiddleston on fangirls, when asked: “What do you think of all the fangirls? Are you frightened by our ways, or flattered?”)
"Oh, I’m so flattered, because they all seem so intelligent and so fun. It seems like they totally get where I’m coming from as an actor with the character, but also, they also have huge fun with it. I mean… to be in the position of having created something that is appreciated, but is also then possessed, and allow it to evolve; to be mocked and poked fun at and all these things-it is such a privilege. ‘Cuz you know, it could have gone much worse, they could have gone, “What a terrible job, we hate you.” And so the reverse is true; I’m only flattered by it."
