I don’t have any idea what’s going on between the cast, obviously, but I think Tom not being paired with Chris is as much to do with the fact that for the most part, he hasn’t DONE any promo as anything else. Like, apart from appearing briefly in LA, & doing a few interviews that all look like they were shot on/around the same day, to judge by the outfits, (so it made sense they put him a different co-star for each) he’s not been with ANY of the cast doing ANY promo. He’s literally disappeared.

@sexualthorientation, you wanna take this one, since it seems to be in reply to your post? I haven’t been paying that much attention to the promo work Tom has or hasn’t been doing in the past few weeks because, you know, dissertation.

Can I ask you why you have a bad feeling about Hiddlesworth lately? It’s been a while since I really followed Chris’ and Tom’s relationship so I’m a bit confused. Hope you don’t mind me asking this!

thoresque:

hey there! sorry for the late response – i was away from a computer for four days, and i hate the mobile app for answering asks (among other things), so i wanted to wait until i was at an actual ‘puter again

to answer your question though, it doesn’t feel like chris and tom are as close as they once were. tom looked eager to jump back into that close, synergistic relationship they had during thor 1, avengers and dark world (i mean who could forget that time tom sang dankeschön to chris?). 

but during ragnarok filming, there was a noticeable absence of that affection from chris, who seemed to have been kind of standoffish a lot of the time, with the exception of when they did ragnarok interviews together (which were too few, imo)

when they were filming ragnarok tom was kind of touchy-feely:

and you got a very real sense that he wanted to follow chris around like a lovesick puppy:

then there was the instagram post tom made:

like that’s. yeah. it just…it all feels so one-sided

but that’s why i’ve been feeling like hiddlesworth is winding down :/

Tom deserves better.
