Where does this come from?

Euagh! What happened to his teeth?!?!?!! 

I was thinking that too, but chose to believe that it’s just the light.

It’s from Thor’s end-credit scene. Here’s a more clear gif:

It’s not the light. His teeth are bloody. His skin looks like it’s burnt. He is emaciated. It seems like his right eye has blood in it. He is clearly not in a good condition. This is even a worse look than his state at the begining of Avengers. More proof of physical torture at the hands of Thanos and his allies.

I have to stop myself from crying every time I see this Loki. Broken Loki, tortured Loki, a Loki who has been brought to the cliff’s edge of insanity and thrown off. Judging by how short his hair is here, and how long it is in Avengers 1, this end credits scene was not long after he fell. So who knows what further tortures and brainwashing he was subjected to before he was cleaned up and deposited on Earth.

The fact that he smiles, even if it’s a fake ironic smile, it just shows me how beyond sanity he is.

His look here reminds me of Rumplestiltskin played by Robert Carlyle

This scene caused me some trouble in writing my Loki-in-the-Void fic because I didn’t understand how Loki ended up on Earth, if that’s where he was, before he ended up wherever Thanos found him (or vice versa, I suppose), and I also didn’t know how he would have found the Tesseract without Thanos’s help. So I ended up saying this was a projection from Sanctuary, but the reason Loki looks like a beat-up version of himself at the the end of Thor is because Loki has to use the Mind Stone to send the projection that far and it fucks with his self-image, which is what he uses to create the projections. (I swear it kind of makes sense in context…)
