We are compiling a list of safe space blogs for various fandoms across this wide Tumblr universe. We’re looking to add MARVEL  role-players who have blogs that are SAFE SPACES for all races, sexes, genders, etc. We are looking for tolerant, accepting people to be added to our MARVEL MASTERLIST. This list is open to multi-muses, original characters, sideblogs, and canon characters.

Please like or reblog if your blog meets this critera and you’re interested in joining the list!

My advice to followers regarding the Russo Brothers interview: ignore it. 

Marvel is a capitalist powerhouse; I don’t say that to indict or to condone, I say it as mere fact.  The primary goal of Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe now is to drain consumers of as much cash as possible.  This means ensuring return revenue by any means necessary.  

This is NOT as simple as “Marvel hates Loki and is trying to demean/discourage Loki’s fans.”  Rather, it’s “we know that anything that mentions Tom Hiddleston or Loki will hit a fandom nerve, so we will bring him up in as many controversial forms as possible.”  Put yourself in the strategist’s shoes.  What’s happened as the result of the remark that “Tom is growing out of the role of Loki”?  We have all stirred ourselves into an emotional frenzy.  What does even our outspoken boycotting of Marvel media ensure?  That we will continue to consume that media.  Return. Revenue.  

Ignore the interview.  It truly means nothing other than what we already knew:  Tom is a busy and accomplished actor who will want to tackle roles additional to those he can find within MCU.  It was a neutral statement but one calculated to stir the pot.  

Don’t play their game.  Abstain, and wait patiently.  it will be okay. 

Here’s Darc in a more vulnerable moment. “I’m…I’m glad you’re not dead,” he states, touching his birthmark in his usual upset habit. “I don’t want to lose anymore people.” //reignofdarcness

       “I am as water. Changing to every container, every situation, every
        exerted pressure, tint, and turn of the light.  Neither male nor female,
        good nor evil; you will catch me in the glimpsed
        periphery, like a shiny object snatched into swift flight by the
        magpie.  I am in the doorway, slipping into the fuzzy terrain between
       sleep and waking.  You can scald me,  cause me to dry up and
        evaporate, but I shall return.  Mist, rain, fog, ocean, river, creek,
        pond, lake.  Beneath sinew itself. I am everywhere, I am uncatchable,
        and I am undying. 

                 Do not despair of me yet.”

//Just a few days remain before we see whether Loki lives or dies.  A few more days before we learn whether his motives are revealed fully in this next film, or saved in obscurity for the last.   A few days before more grouchy naysayers start flinging rotten hate-tomatoes at the character in all his wonderfully complex facets again.  

This is just a reminder that this blog is going nowhere regardless. 

Apparently tonight is the night. I think it’s highly likely that there will be numerous character deaths, and that they will not be permanent, but that we will not know until Avengers 4.  Tom Hiddleston is in the cast for that film, but whether it’s as a flashback or as a still living cast member, we will have to see. 

I trust that Loki will ultimately act on the side of the welfare of Asgard, without betraying his inherently Chaotic Neutral Trickster nature.  Yep. I trust the “Liesmith.”

Writing and interpreting this character has been one of the great privileges of my life.  That will not change. 

Regardless, thank you to 2,420 followers for 7 years of wonderful intellectual and creative endeavors.  

//Thanks to @scientificxprincess for this glorious little snippet of Letitia Wright and Tom Hiddleston from Twitter. 

It’s obvious he was venturing into spoilery territory, but Tom is also known to fondly and humorously speculate on content that Marvel is too chickenshit or lame to include. 

I don’t know if this shows Loki and Shuri becoming buddies in Infinity War, since earlier Tom says he only just met Letitia, but MY GOD I’D KILL FOR HIM TO ADOPT A GENIUS KID SISTER IN THAT FASHION, who could remind him to be patient with his big brother and maybe help him heal, and he could protect her cinnamon roll self with his weapons and tricks.

What I DO think this suggests is that Loki loses either a weapon or a body part which Shuri can, maybe, in the future, replace (sort of like Bucky’s arm–WHICH IS INTERESTING BECAUSE THEY’RE SITTING WITH SEBASTIAN STAN, whose presence might have given Tom that mental cue).  

More importantly this is a note of hope that maybe Loki will survive this film, if Tom is speculating on his future beyond events in the movie.   

This is the first time I’ve had any hope of him surviving and I’m gonna hold onto it just to cope through April.
