Look, I’ve seen people say Loki looks confused when Grandmaster starts flirting with him, but…the way he looks at Thor? That’s literally the universal look of He’s Hitting On Me But I’m With Family And Can’t Respond
Taika Waititi: Tom, can I talk to you for a second?
Tom Hiddleston: Of course, go for it.
Taika: Alright so I love the whole Shakespeare villain thing you’ve been doing for Loki, but I have an idea.
Tom: Right?
Taika: Hear me out, alright? Get this. So, we do the whole narcissist thing again, but this time he’s Jeff Goldblum’s bitch.
Tom: I’m listening.
Honestly, though, the Age Difference in frostmaster is the most entertaining thing I’ve come across in fanfiction for a while. It’s sexy and funny, yet surprisingly meaningful, especially when it comes to Loki’s psychology as a character. I mean, come on, the God of Daddy Issues falling for an older guy cannot be treated as a coincidence, period. Putting aside the possibilities of banter, snark and sexy gay times, Loki’s need of attention and approval is the main reason why I ship these two dorks. Not to mention the intense Sugar Daddy/Sugar Baby subtext. Let’s speak straight, having an all-powerful creature with a thing for blue eyeliner getting him presents, calling him beautiful and celebrating/encouraging his mischief is probably the healthiest (and sexiest) coping mechanism Loki has ever come up with.
The Grandmaster flirting with Loki and Loki knowing exactly what’s going on and Thor being confused as fuck is the best thing that’s happened to me this week.
*ALSO*
I think this may be the first time a Marvel movie has made a direct allusion to/acknowledgement of Loki’s queerness and I’m so here for it. MORE PLEASE.
