Wakanda Forever!

 R.I.P. Chadwick Boseman (1976-2020)

I'm deeply shocked, the news of Chadwick's passing was the first thing I read this morning. I want to share my condolences to his family, his friends and to everyone who loved and knew him! 

Chad inspired so many people. Black Panther was a masterpiece and than to think Chad was already battling this disease while portraying King T'Challa and he visited children who suffered from this disease also. Chad was a true hero and the loss of him is heavy! He will be forever missed and will never be forgotten! 

He's an Angel in heaven now.

Memories/Looking back: March 2019

Memories/Looking back: March 2019

For this blog's first anniversary (February, 10th) I did a blog post in which I talked about posts I posted in February 2019, shared memories. I also said that it could be an idea to do this monthly, around the 10th of the month (for that month 2019). Due the current circumstances that slipped my mind the 10th, and now I thought it would be nice to still do, only a little later. During these times of staying inside, more time for writing and reading are created and looking back at beautiful Tom/Loki memories always is a great thing to focus on!

I wrote 10 blogs for March 2019, an amount I cannot reach for this March anymore unless I would write more blogs per day.. I've sift through the March 2019's blogs and man.. Where I've wrote a lot about Tom/Loki in February, I didn't in March.. Perhaps it was a bit quiet around him in March before the opening of Betrayal? But as to be read in my header, Goddess of Loki is not a news blog (I make exceptions every now and then) but a personal blog. Mostly I'm sharing the news via Instagram & Facebook.

Let's share a few blogposts of March 2019:

1. Carnaval

The month got kicked off by a blog about Carnaval, something similar like Halloween (only than less scary & the dressing up & partying continues for 5 days in a row. This year I wore my Angel outfit with a purple wig, as purple is a highly spiritual colour. It really took me a while to get into the fun time this year, I notice every year I'm less and less looking forward to the Carnaval. But it remains a lovely tradition and I had a lot of fun the last two days. A storm was expected for the Sunday, so Sunday's activities got postponed to Monday.

On my personal Facebook page (Dutch) I was planning of writing a post about the Carnaval as well because this year's carnaval is now a month ago. In the past month so much has changed that it feels like it was much longer ago. It's almost unthinkable that a month ago we all stood so close to each other, partying with 1000+ people.. while now for our own safety we are taking distance from each other and events/meetings with more than 3 people are cancelled. It's a strange, strange world.. It seems that this year's carnaval caused more trouble than it did good, because the only two provinces of our country that celebrate it (Noord Brabant & Limburg, the one I'm living in), relatively have the most COVID_19 infections. If you ask me, there's a chance that these kind of big events are no longer responsible in the future. Who knows, we'll see. Health always comes first and the memories we will cherish!

2. Disney Plus First Arrives in the Netherlands

This was a little news blog when it got announced that Disney Plus first arrived in the Netherlands. I wrote: "According to insiders, Disney + is coming to the Netherlands this year!" No lie there, Disney Plus arrived here in October and they offered a free period of a month before the streaming service device went live for real in several countries (don't know all exact countries) on November the 12th. We were able to test the device, however I did not used it much (that's why I cancelled mine in December) because of time and because of that there was no app for my TV. I read that still not all TVs or providers are supporting the app, I hope that has changes before the Loki Series comes because then I definitely re-subscribe!

3. Captain Marvel Review

Sadly there're no new movies to review this March and probably for April too, because of the corona-crisis all movies have postponed. And that's for the best because it's not necessary for anyone to risk their health. If you ask me, last year was a great movie year. Captain Marvel, Dumbo, Aladdin, Endgame and my personal winner: Joker. I just re-read my Captain Marvel review and since Tom Hiddleston is my huge inspiration, I do take my chance of mentioning him where I can. So I also did that in my Captain Marvel review, read below the first part of this review:

"Men, beware! Also in the film-industry, the women are after a take-over, so it looks. We will most definitely see it happening in this year’s superheroes films. After the Marvel male related superheroes such as Thor, Iron Man, Captain America & Black Panther, now it‘s up to actress Brie Larson (In my Dutch review I couldn't resist on mentioning here that she‘s also known for the movie Kong: Skull Island in which my favorite Marvel actor Tom Hiddleston has a big role. Even if we will see Loki in Endgame, I know he‘s one of the characters I can‘t mention for my Endgame review..) to crawl into the skin of a superhero: Captain Marvel! Also, later this year Marvel will release the movie: ‘X-Men: Dark Phoenix’ which will also be dominated by (not all heroes) female characters. Talked about this: We've seen it at DC too with ‘Wonder Woman’, earlier ‘Catwoman’ and the ‘Supergirl’ show (from which was made a movie in the 80s and apparently there are plans for a new Supergirl film). I thought it was very accurate for me to go see ‘Captain Marvel on International Women’s Day! However, if you just look at the title, you might just not directly assume it concerns a woman. When a few years ago I first got crossed with the title ‘Captain Marvel’, before knowing any details, I assumed it would be a male character. (No, ain’t really a comics-reader..) Funny thing I recently read in a blog titled ‘Everything you need to know about the new Captain Marvel film!’ from Wilson Worldwide Productions (Award-winning Film & TV production company which I am following on Instagram), that the character originally was a man!"

No Captain Marvel Photo here, I choose to add a photo
of both Tom & Brie in Kong: Skull Island instead.

4. Avengers / X-Men Crossover (Fanfiction I wrote)

Here I shared the first three chapters of this Avengers / X-Men Crossover fanfiction I wrote, if you want to read it, you need to click the link. It also links to the story on wattpad (also posted on other fanfiction sites) where you can find more chapters. I must say I haven't had much inspiration for this story ever since, so I'm afraid I haven't updated it much.. Also I don't know if what's in the blog is up to date (edits).

Summary story:

This is a crossover with the characters Charles Xavier, Magneto & the Wolverine of Marvel‘s X-Men (First Class). The characters of the Avengers series are: Loki, Thor, Tony Stark & Bucky Barnes. From the Guardians of the Galaxy I added Rocket & Teenage Groot. 

Charles Xavier has called the Asgardian Gods and Logan to protect his 'powerful' twin sister Charlene, against the God Apocalypse. Meanwhile Magneto made a team out of Tony Stark, Bucky Barnes & the two smallest members of the Guardians of the Galaxy to go join them.

5. Official Betrayal Photo's 

Does this blogpost need any more explanation? Exactly what I thought a year ago, because I wrote:

"No headline. A photo strong like this one, doesn't need an extra headliner. Emma & Jerry holding hands and Robert with his head down a little afar from them. The feeling, the emotions. What a small photo can do."

Above is a edit I made and sent as a card to the theatre. It has a few of the photo's made by Marc Brenner, obviously the theme of this blogpost, in it. Relive your memories!

6. Tom Hiddleston on Only Artists 

Oh this was such an inspiring piece of radio! Tom talked about what he listened to for the role of Loki and he also mentioned other stunning film music like Chariots of Fire! I write a lot about music too, did a Top 2000 blog in December but this blog definitely can use more posts about music. To gain positivity on Facebook's timeline, I'm currently doing a music ABC on my personal page. Perhaps when I'm finished, I can share the whole list here. I can give you today's song: 

7. Endgame

Three photo's with one line:  "The only posts that matters today:" It was the day Tom posted Loki's Endgame picture on his social media! My heart almost stopped that day!

8: Dutch Comic Con 

This blogpost about Dutch Comic Con was my first (and only for the moment) Comic Con experience. Oh where I said that this year's Dutch Comic Con was still happening (as a response of Boston's Con got cancelled), only with a few extra corona rules, they still had to cancel it after all (postponed to July as it seems now). Not only because of the many guests couldn't come due Trump's travel-ban, our country also announced a event-ban from March to June. Just like the Carnaval, in the current times, an event like Comic Con (& the crowded trains -due defect trains- during the ride home we experienced last year!) now totally seem so unreal and irresponsible. 

I just mentioned that I'm doing a music ABC on my personal Facebook page. On the 24th of this month it was the letter C. I chose for the Corrs with the song Breathless, a song that always reminds me of the episode (3x21) of Charmed in where Prue turns into a dog to track down her sister Phoebe who had turned into a Banshee (see video below). When Prue turns back to herself (end of the episode) you'll hear this song. When I hear this song it takes me back to my great memories of Charmed and especially to Shannen Doherty, who portrayed Prue in the series. I met her at Dutch Comic Con 2019 and on the 24th of March it was exactly one year ago. I found it beautiful that on this date exact, it was the turn to post a song from a artist with the letter C. I don't believe in coincidence and like Prue used to say in the series a lot: "Everything happens for a reason."

 

I have experienced my photo op & meeting with Shannen in the autograph line as a really lovely experience. Shannen is a warm, kindhearted person and I admire her for her strength. Over the years she has inspired me and many people over the entire world and among others did she let hear her voice for animal rights. Here's a line about Shannen's Panel that I wrote in my blogpost from 2019:

"One person told her how much she admired her for how open she was during the time of her disease (something similar I wrote in the letter) and asked her if she had any tips for someone who went through it right now."

Shannen's Q&A truly was worth every word and it was amazing to see her interaction with fans. She shared how she went through her breast cancer and shared that people shouldn't lose hope, shouldn't give up. Also Shannen has always been very open about her disease on social media. I remember that she posted a very emotional video in where her hair got shaved off. You have to be a very strong person to share a video of a vulnerable moment like that. I've really got a lot of respect for this! And indeed, I've always seen Shannen as a strong, independence woman and that's also how I experienced seeing her at Dutch Comic Con. It truly broke my heart when I found out that now her cancer has returned, in a crucial 4th stadium. The whole world is now fighting the same enemy, the same disease, namely the coronavirus, but let us also think of the people who also have to fight against other persistent diseases! 

Shannen, meeting you was an experience I shall never forget. Thank you for all the love, fun, light & strength you have brought to this world💓. I wish you and your family a lot of strength, light and lots of love!

I will keep on cherishing this moment always💙

Hereby I'll end this blogpost,

for everyone:

Stay safe & strong, stay home, hand out a helpful hand to the people who need it, be kind for each other, lighten the earth and don't loose faith!

First anniversary of Goddess of Loki on Blogspot!

First anniversary of Goddess of Loki on Blogspot!

Blog created on February the 10th, a day after Tom's 38th birthday.

From February 10, 2019 to February 10, 2020 I wrote in total (this one included) 69 blogposts.

After I had watched War Horse last afternoon on Tom's birthday I realized that this blog's birthday was coming up soon too. One year has passed now, because I made this blog one day after Tom's birthday. It was one day too late when I decided I wanted to have my own blog, no actually one week too late because there were so many beautiful things to share in Tom's Spirit Week (so I just re-shared them a week later)! Because today it's my blog's first anniversary, I would like to look back on a few of this blog's posts, published in the first month! I think it's funny (and sometimes a bit embarrassed) to look back on your older writings, whether they are blogs or fanfiction writings. Not only do you improve your writing style in a year, but often you'll cross writings and you think: "Have I really written that? Was that my opinion?" I hope this sounds familiar, otherwise I'm the only one haha. 

I had a lot to write about in February 2019 because it had 16 posts! However, my first blogpost was a very short one, basically just a status where I shared that I had watched The Hollow Crown for the very first time the day before, on his birthday. My second one was named Favorite Tom Friday, dedicated to #TomsSpiritWeek. It was for the day you had to pick your favorite 9 of Tom from his 37th to his 38th birthday. It was a lot of text, here's a small part of it:

(Note: I'll add "2020:" in commentary I've added now.)

1. Favorite Tom Hiddleston Friday (<-- link to post)

4. Suddenly out of the blue, there was this picture of Tom Hiddleston & Josh Wilson posted by Wilson Worldwide Productions Something about a secret project. I‘m still very curious, because we still don‘t know what it is! I think it‘s something very spectacular! We got something to look forward to! He also posted a second photo (that‘s the one in the collage) in which he tagged me & a few other Tom Hiddleston/Loki fan accounts in. That totally made my day, so thank you Josh!

2020: Is it just me, or do we still NOT KNOW?

6. On the 30th October Tom and Josie Rourke talked at the Alan Howard / JW3 Speaker Series. It was a lovely and inspiring interview, I was able to watch later on Youtube. He talked about how he stepped out of his comfort zone, which has inspired me to do the same. When I hear this man talk about acting; whether it‘s in film, series or theatre; it‘s so so visible I‘m listening to a man who found his passion and as I said it before: He truly has put his heart and soul it. Perhaps I do not know how to properly bring this into words, but I hope you understand what I mean. I think many people can see him as an example, given the fact for example how he has grown in +/- 20 years. From liking to do voices as a kid to this passion and talent which goes much deeper than just the word ‘acting’. He does inspire people to go take their passion to the next level as well. 

2020: Still one of my favorite interviews of Tom!

7. Tom Hiddleston‘s first social media post in (what was it?) 2 years: Loki. More stories to tell. More mischief to make. More to come. That literally broke the internet! What Ralph Breaks the Internet? No, Tom Hiddleston breaks the internet! The #LokiSeries (#Disney+) confirmed by the man himself! I‘m so excited for this whole thing. Patient, patient.. But I‘m freaking out inside! Can‘t wait!

2020: Now we finally have a first look of the Loki Series! And I still can't wait!

9. This photo is taken by BBC Radio 2 during the Zoe Ball Breakfast Show. It‘s truly one of my favorite pictures yet! There he spoke about ‘Betrayal’ which will be hitting the theatre in London next month. He also spoke a little about the Loki Series & about the Nightmanager season 2, but he wasn‘t allowed to say much about it yet. What better to start your Friday morning (it was a Friday) with then listening to Tom‘s voice on the radio! They also had some real good music in-between the talks. I heard ABBA, Journey (Don‘t stop Believing) & a live performance of a song of No Doubt. Also they spoke about the film 'Mary Queen of Scots' which premiered that week. I found it very impressive!

2020: Okay still nothing on the Night Manager Season 2, but wow Betrayal London is almost a year ago now! Last December in my Top 2000 Music blogpost, I also addressed this radio interview when sharing the main reason why I gave Journey's Don't Stop Believing a vote: --> "Ever since my teen years the song Don't Stop Believing came to me on moments when I was about to stop believing.. It's like it's the Universe's way to send me a reminder, a confirmation and it's so beautiful. It's something that gets me emotional too. You know one of my dreams is meeting Tom Hiddleston one day and when he was on the English Radio 2 (betrayal interview) the song Don't Stop Believing was played during that show or after it. And here it comes: Two hours later I switch back to the Dutch Radio 2 and on the very same moment there it is: Don't Stop Believing from Journey!" <-- It was such a magical moment! And the ABBA song was 'Waterloo', one that now also makes me think of Tom every time I hear it!

In a top 9 of 2019-2020 probably Loki in Endgame, Tom Hiddleston on SDCC, Tom's posts about the Loki Series, Betrayal London & Betrayal Broadway won't be missing!

My other two edits I made for Favorite Tom Friday were 9 of my favorite Tom Hiddleston photo's/moments/my fave roles of Tom other than Loki + 9 favorite photo's of Tom as Loki:

2. Loki's Birthday (Chapter of my Loki Novel)

To stay in the spirit of Tom's birthday, I shared a scene of when it was Loki's birthday in my Loki fanfiction. Click the link if you want to read it. I'm currently editing my story, what I had posted here is obviously not edited yet. 

3. Thor The Dark World 

Still one of my favorite posts. I talked Thor the Dark World, one or maybe my favorite Marvel movies all time! 😊 Again, here's a small part:

Favorite Introduction: In the Avengers we see Loki looking as a mess at first sight, (Of course he made all women worldwide faint a few scenes later, with him staring in their souls while the guards guide him away. Even Bruce Banner got distracted by that look!) here we see the opposite. I can‘t help but saying that he just looks extremely attractive in those chains! I don‘t know how many time was meant to be passed, but he surely doesn't look like he just got Hulk Smashed! The way we get to see him walking towards -there‘s the minor point..- Odin. In between he asked his mother if he made her proud. Also I like the scenes with Frigga and Loki very much. If you ask me I think, despite that he wasn't her real son, she favored Loki over Thor. Yes, I love this introduction. I have played this DVD like a thousand of times, so I usually just skip the prologue part and my movie starts with this scene. :) 

Favorite quote: 

"If it were easy, everyone would do it." 

And of course, off-screen at the end of the scene: "Ta-daa!"

2020: And somewhere in this post I wrote: "Is it an idea to rerelease this film, with nothing but Loki commentary during the whole film?" I still would sign for this haha! 

Favorite Illusion:

In my opinion, too much Loki scenes got cut in Thor the Dark World. (Perhaps because otherwise they could have better named the movie: Loki the Dark World..) But if I should name one they should not had cut out, I‘m not naming this one. I‘m naming the scene in which you see Loki scream loudly after he just heard about his mother‘s death. In the movie we only get to see him moving his furniture, while this extended scene showed much more of his emotions! It showed that he cared deeply, that also the God of Mischief is a man with real feelings. Of course for us it‘s obvious Loki isn't heartless, even though his actions and words have not always shown that. We read it off his face (right?). But when I‘m talking to someone who doesn't understand his character, they describe him as a selfish, heartless dirty bull. Unfortunately for some, Loki still is a misunderstood character. But luckily, the deleted scenes are out there for us to see. And this is one of my favorite because it‘s full of fun! Loki dressed as a King, raising Mjolnir and getting a lot of glory from the folks. An illusion created by Loki. The scene in Thor: Ragnarok (Hela demanding the folks to kneel before her), reminds me of this scene. Loki really has developed himself in Ragnarok, but sometimes I think it‘s funny to wonder: Is Loki really the adopted one? ;)

Favorite ending: Once you have seen the after credits scenes, you don‘t have to see them again. At least, that‘s what I thought. For me the movie starts with Loki and ends with him + the lovely Thor the Dark World music which comes after. Once I said: "Marvel shall never outdo the strong vibe this ending had.", and several movies further I still agree with myself. The best fatherly advise Thor ever got, didn't even came from his father. As if Loki just knew Thor would have turned around while walking away (imagine if he did..), he transformed (looking just as attractive like in the introduction) back to himself and softly said: 'No, thank you..' Gold!

2020: ^^ Still saying AMEN to this!

4. Who is 'Goddess of Loki' ? 

I had found a website with all kinds of questions to introduce yourself to your readers. Funny to read it back tho, let's see if I still agree with my 'one year ago' self:

"By start the people who know me don‘t call me 'Goddess of Loki', most of them don‘t even know I got social media accounts named after that, let along if they even know who Loki is. No, people call me Nicole because well.. that‘s my name. And at the moment I‘m still 27 years old. I do live in a very small town in a country shaped like a hand glove. Do you know what country I mean? (The Netherlands.)"

2020: ^^ That's not right, I'm 28 now lol.


"1. What’s your favorite way to spend a weekend? Watching tv (shows, films with or without Tom in them), writing, reading, in general relaxing and sometimes I like to go out with friends.

2. What type of music are you into? Rock music mainly! I really like 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s."

2020: Nothing changed there.


"3. What was the best vacation you ever took and why? London 2017, it‘s just an amazing city! 

4. Where’s the next place on your travel bucket list and why? Ah, I thought this question would come.. Scotland! I would really like to go to Scotland! I think it‘s a really beautiful country with stunning nature. And I‘d like to see Lake Lochness!"

2020: Well, I'm going to Glastonbury this year, so perhaps question 3 would change. And question 4 would not be right, even though Scotland stands very high on my bucket list!

"9. What are you most proud of in the last year? How much I have grown in my English writing. You should see something I wrote like two years ago, I‘m still working on some adjustments in my older work."

2020: That answer is still correct! I think it's amazing how much you can learn in one year!

"12. Who do you admire most in the world? Do I seriously need to answer this question?? The answer is the person I dedicates this blog to! But besides him I also really admire my family members and some people who had to deal with a lot of difficulty."

2020: 💓

"21. If you could invite 3 people, dead or alive, to a dinner party, who would they be, and why? Tom Hiddleston, Kurt Cobain & Chris Hemsworth. This would be the weirdest party ever.."

2020: Why hadn't I invited Robert Downey Jr? He's definitely invited, so I've got to un-invite someone. Obviously that'll be Kurt Cobain or Chris Hemsworth..

"24. What fictional place / movie universe would you most like to go? Asgard! Dreaming away with Loki below the beautiful Asgard sky.."

2020: Who wouldn't?


(Then came a Valentine post, a post about the Raffle for meeting Tom Hiddleston, first news about the Loki Series and news about Betrayal)


5. Stuttgart Loki Funko Pop Custom

In February 2019 I also received my Stuttgart Loki custom I had requested. I still love him, he's so adorable! More pictures in the blogpost of February 23rd.

6. Throwback to Tom‘s Spirit Week: Good Will Thursday

My last post from February 2019 was dedicated to a charity for animals, my subject for Thursday's theme of 2019's Tom's Spirit Week:

Small part:

#TomsSpiritWeek: For today‘s theme #GoodWillThursday I chose to support charities. Since I already have donated for both of the Tom Hiddleston birthday Fundraisers for Unicef, I chose Animals Syria - CatConnect. I chose to donate the exact amount I had paid for an event which got canceled (and so was refunded to me). 

#CatConnect is on my list for charities I wanted to support since I saw the episode of husky Zeus on Dogs (Netflix documentary). As I got a big heart for animals and I want them to live a happy and safe life, the episode touched me very much. The episode is about a Syrian refugee. His dog Zeus remained in Syria for several years before enlisting the help of Animals Syria to make the reunion possible.

2020: ^^ I don't know if it's still on Netflix, but 'Dogs' is really worth the watch!


💚💙💜💛


Compared to last year and seen how busy I am lately, I know I won't make it to 16 posts for February this year! But since I watched War Horse last night and because I like to write film blogs/reviews, I think my next blog will be about War Horse!

I want to thank everyone who has followed me & has been reading my blogs this year. Up to another year of fun, lots of Hiddleslove & lots of Loki's mischief!

See you soon!

💓

Love,

Hiddles 39th Birthday!

Hiddles 39th Birthday!

9 February: Tom Hiddleston's Birthday

Dearest Tom,

Years really do fly. I remember your 38th birthday like it was yesterday. I had totally stepped out of my comfortzone with making a silly video of me singing Happy Birthday to you. And I haven't stepped in that comfortzone again ever since. I've made some crazy but good decisions, overwon some of my fears and did the things I desired for. Thank you Tom!💓.

Today it's your day. Have a lovely, fantastic birthday! Enjoy your 39th birthday! Congratulations! And.. Mischief is allowed! Haha. 

I wish all Hiddlestoners a lovely, great day on Hiddles Birthday!

In Dutch we say something similar like: "If it's your birthday, you hand out treats!" In case of Tom, I think that's exactly what he has been doing for the past few weeks! Because we've been granted with a few exclusive first looks of his dyed black hair for the Loki Series, the Super Bowl video, Thor Ragnarok deleted scenes and there were some pictures of Tom I've never seen. And all this in my busy months! Yeah, it has been quite hectic this year and it actually has just started! I've started a new job, got a lot to do here and there, had a school reunion and I even had a blind-date (but let's forget about that because that absolutely was a no match..) While there's a heavy storm outside, there's a lot of Tom to share on his birthday, so shall we do that? 😁

First look of Tom Hiddleston as Loki, doing preparation for the Loki Series:

Prep is going really well. #Loki

Een bericht gedeeld door Tom Hiddleston (@twhiddleston) op 27 Jan 2020 om 11:35 (PST)

There were already rumors that Tom had dyed his hair black and there he posted the proof! We've got to do it without Loki's long locks, but I think this look fits Loki very well too. At least it's not as short as Thor's look from Thor Ragnarok! Also this means bye bye beard as Tom is now seen clean shaved. It resulted in fans creating 'RIP Hiddlesbeard' memes and videos. Don't be sad! No beard means more Loki so what more could we want? However, Loki with a beard, how would that be?

Loki in the first Marvel Studios trailer for the Disney Plus Series, showed at the Super Bowl:

Loki, smiling, showing his naked arms saying: "I'm gonna burn this place to the ground!"

Uhm.. Wow!

Make-up Artist Douglas Noe shared a photo from Tom from the summer of 2017:

#fbf Summer 2017 ‘Thor Ragnarok’ pickups Here’s Tom taking out the trash... aka me. All kidding aside, Happy Birthday (this Sunday the 9th) to one of my favorite people. It’s been said so often, he’s truly remarkable in every way!!! 39 years young! #tomhiddleston #loki #happybirthday #ragnarok #alwaysgreat

Ohh and let's not forget about this one: 😮

Deleted Scene of Thor Ragnarok:

Loki, Thor finding a homeless Odin and then there's the introduction of Hela. This scene is epic! 

Enjoy this lovely day! What are you going to do today? I'm going to watch a Tom Hiddleston movie. I think it's going to be War Horse, it's been a long time when I last saw it! Have fun!! And next year: Big 40th party?? 😁

PS: I remember that I made this blog one day after Tom's 38th birthday, so tomorrow it's the first anniversary of GoddessofLoki.blogspot!

Tom & Charlie change character for Halloween

Tom as Daredevil, Charlie as Loki

Picture: Bruce Glikas (Gettyimages)

A few days for Halloween it got announced: A Halloween surprise at Betrayal's Stage door. Zawe Ashton, holding a camera, asked the two men what they would wear. It was a surprise. Then the speculation begun: "What will Tom wear for Halloween?"

In the comments I saw a lot passing by with two on the lead:
- Loki
- Anything Shakespeare related

But...

He came out as Daredevil and Charlie was wearing a Loki costume! Which means Tom & Charlie basically switched characters, a lovely gesture if you ask me! Zawe was dressed as Captain Marvel & Eddie Arnold was Captain America

My Loki funkopop had a original costume too..

The Madness Of King Scar

The Madness Of King Scar

My two favourite Disney/Marvel characters to write about are obviously, Loki & Scar. Today I would like to share a few parts of the scene The Madness of King Scar, which comes from my fan fiction story called: Scar‘s Reign.

Note that this isn‘t the whole scene, I‘ve picked some parts out. You can find the whole chapter here:
Ao3 c7 TMOKS Scar‘s Reign (FF.net & Wattpad link posted at the end of this post).

Scar's mind is chaos, unpredictable and the drama-'queen'(king) has a huge personality which I wanted to be fully shown in The Madness of King Scar.. This chapter is a mix of the one particular scene from the film with Scar, Zazu and the hyenas in his cave + the deleted scene and the equally titled scene from the musical. Added: My own imagination.

Italic: Character thoughts.
Bold: Character sings.
Small warning: Scar‘s words aren‘t all even (women) friendly..

"I'm the king! But why am I not satisfied?" Did I think that out loud?  Scar sunk too deep in his thoughts and had reached the point of not knowing whether he spoke aloud or in his mind. Terrific, he assumed he thought.. Scar sighed himself down at his rock.

"Sire, what's with the long face?" Zazu, the bird Scar kept behind bars dragged him out of his thoughts.

"Zazu? Why am I not... loved?" Scar decided to directly cut to the chase. The lionesses, why don't they like me? With my black manes, I must be irresistible! And I'm a king! What more could they possibly want?

"Well, why do you think you are not loved?" The hornbill spoke, to Scar's annoyance, with a wise tone.

According to Scar the bird sounded just like his father, or like Mufasa. He didn't wanted to be reminded of them over and over again. They had everything when they were kings while at Scar's reign everything got black, literally.. Scar figured he wasn't in the mood after all so he made a gesture towards Zazu, signing the bird to leave him and his mind alone.

"Hey, boss! Talking to the silly bird again?" Banzai called out to the lion, when he, Shenzi and Ed hopped in.

Ah, my friends! Well, 'friends'.. Since when is calling a friend 'boss' a common thing?  Every now and then, Scar wouldn't mind getting rid of them. He narrowed his eyes at the three of them. Shenzi, the female leader, who according to him, at least owned a little brain. In Scar's opinion Banzai was nothing more than a cubbish piece of junk and the last one, Ed, who besides laughing and nodding lacked any manner of communication, he thought was completely beyond redemption. He rolled his eyes as he surveyed everyone around him. "I'm surrounded by idiots again.."

When Shenzi immediately responded, there was no need for Scar to hesitate whether that was just a thought or not. "Well, thank you! What's wrong with ya lately? You are not the only one who's forced to skip breakfast!" she commented without hiding that she felt slightly offended. "Was he like this all day, Zazu?"

"Oh, he just needs a mate!" Even Zazu surprised himself by speaking this sentence. Well for this particular moment, it did gain him a little popularity among the hyenas. Leastwise that surely counted for the two male hyenas, who both had fallen into a giant laughter caused by Zazu's comment.

"Stop that! You fools!" Scar tried using his voice to overshadow their laughter, which he rated as highly annoying.

--

"Can't you not even have a little sympathy for me?" Scar acted like his pride got touched. "Don't mistake the colour of this small beating thing here inside of me with the colour of my manes," he gushed, almost in a singing tone. Dramatically, Scar held his paw on his chest, right at the place of his heart.

"Here we go again.." Shenzi mumbled, not amused.

"Tell me I'm adored! Please, tell me I'm adored!" Scar sung.

Banzai was close to bursting into laughter again. "A door?"

Scar took a deep breath. He stated to be burdened with the wrong public. Scar covered up his eyes in the hope of when he lowered his paw again, all these 'odd surrounding objects' were gone. His current view isn't quite the one that he visualized and thought he signed himself up for all those years ago.

--

"And I thought we had bad under Mufasa.." Banzai sighed.

Immediately Scar jumped in front of the hyena. "What did you say!?" he growled.

"I said..-"

Quickly Shenzi elbowed him again. Preventing Banzai from repeating names from Scar's forbidden name list seemed to be her full-time job nowadays.

"I said, uh... Que pasa?" Banzai eventually answered the black maned lion.

Scar heard enough and turned his back on the hyenas. "Good, and now get out.."

Staring to the cave's wall, Scar frowned. They're still behind me, aren't they?

"But we still have no food!" Banzai confirmed Scar's thought.

"I said get out!!" Scar roared. Luckily this time, the hyenas had taken the hint. With a grin, Scar peeked backwards and saw a last glimpse of them running out.

"Zazu, where were we before those three beggars came in?" The hyenas had spoiled his mood. Scar figured continuing his little game with Zazu could restore it a bit.

Ever since that Scar had made Nala the lead huntress, he hoped that it eventually led her to his cave. Within himself, Scar already had plotted how he would succeed in sailing the ship off to another course. "Yes, but there's.." Like a predator sneaks up on his prey, Scar started to walk around her. "Nala.. my, how've you grown!" Quickly he cleared his throat. "There's one little title upgrade required for you to receive from me before we can make this plan work. And there's more to it! I'm brightening up both yours and little Mheetu's future!" Seductively he let his tail slide below Nala's chin. 

Nala blinked. "And what's that title?" All though that with mentioning her younger brother, Scar had awakened Nala's curiosity, still she wasn't naive. She knew that somewhere in this story there was a catch. Because involving this particular lion, there always was a catch!

Suddenly Scar's energy-meter filled itself to the max. "I shall tell you, but first let me deliberate it with myself a bit," he spoke rather mysterious while he still moved himself around her.

--

"I'm not following you!" Riddle after riddle, why can't he just be straight to the point?-, Nala wondered.

"My cylinders are firing with fervor. And you, my sweet thing, fit.. the part.." With pressing his head against Nala‘s neck, Scar softly pushed the lioness a bit.

"Oh Sire, you are not supposed to say those kind of things out loud!" Zazu, the bird Scar already had forgotten about, snarled.

Did I? Scar used his paw to cover up his mouth.

From the inside, Scar's blood was still flowing through his veins like flashes of energy. And so it did outside. A heavy, dark thunderstorm was overshadowing the already sad looking Pride Lands. Scar's enthusiasm only grew bigger when a lightning stroke had caught his attention. Perfect!  He stormed outside and stopped when he stood on top of the Pride Rock. He looked up, let the rain soak him. His long black gleaming manes, flattened by the rain and sticking to his skin. Scar felt no fear for the lightning at all. From afar he saw a few of the lionesses, including Nala. Of course a lot of hyenas were present too. He saw fear in some of the eyes of his subjects. Scar grimed, he imagined how frightened the sight of him must look with the lightning and the terrifying sounds of the thunder right behind him. There he felt what he desired. Power!

All eyes were still pointing at him. This moment required a speech, as Scar himself stated. Somehow Scar never lacked in finding his words, not that they always helped him. Anyhow, if there was one thing Scar kept in his mind it was to always be prepared!

I‘m also writing a Lion King/ Loki & Thor crossover. (more info later) While watching The Lion King Thor & Loki were sent into the film due a portal (obviously as lions..). It needs some work but these two genius minds together.. Really fun to write!

If you‘re interested in reading the whole scene, I like to refer you the fanfiction websites I've shared it on. (All rights to The Lion King belongs to Disney, but be kind enough not to copy my work.)

(On here I also just posted the newest chapter called: Scar‘s Be Prepared '2.0' in which he‘s giving the hyenas an exclusive performance of so as he sees it, his improved version of Be Prepared.. I might just seen a disco edit of the scene in which Zazu is singing Scar a song..)

Thanks to Pridelands.eu for the screenshots. Really worth the look, these are taken second by second.
Scar is looking really odd in some shots..
