Our Tom is 35 today!

To celebrate Tom Hiddleston's 1981 birthday, here's some photos of his most recent roles over the past year.

Sir Thomas Sharpe in Crimson Peak. He was the best part of this movie!

Hank Williams in I Saw the Light. Haven't seen this in the movie theatres yet.

Jonathan Pine in The Night Manager. I'll be watching this TV series in April on AMC.

Oh, those lashes!

Dr Robert Laing in High-Rise. Looking forward to seeing this too when it plays in Canada.

Leather Daddy Thor

It was inevitable, really, that Thor's new all-leather outfit in Avengers: Age of Ultron would lead to his representation as Leather Daddy Thor --

But I think we all agree . . . "yum yum yum"

Leather Daddy Thor does seem to have one fan in particular though -- who is that always hanging around in the background trying to stay near Thor's sexy leather self?

Ha ha, Steve -- BUST-ed!

Ultimate Avenger High School AU

Substituting Avenger clips as the visuals for the trailer soundtrack of the 1999 movie 10 Things I Hate About You results in the Ultimate Avenger High School AU:

Meet the Stratford sisters: pretty and popular Bianca (Tony Stark), who has never had a date; and Kat (Loki), her older sibling, an ill-tempered harridan whose acerbic wit is matched only by her steadfast determination to alienate any guy who might be remotely interested in her.

Unfortunately, strict rules in the Stratford household forbid Bianca from having a boyfriend until her odious sister has one of her own-a situation that seems highly improbable considering Kat is a social disaster. Bianca's desperation for romance turns into a convoluted scheme to match Kat with her male equivalent--a guy whose reputation is so infamous, Kat might rise to the challenge and find him worthy of her concealed charms.

Mating mayhem ensues when Patrick Verona (Thor) -- a sullen young man with a mysterious past -- is bribed by Bianca's wannabe boyfriend (Bruce Banner) to woo and win Kat, in order to clear the way for Bianca to begin dating.

Plus, since 10 Things I Hate About You is really The Taming of the Shrew in modern form, it counts as Shakespearean Legacy too!

Slashaholic Shipping Addiction, Year 2

Today is Thunderfrost Boys' second blogoversary, yay!

Carrying on last year's tradition means it is once again time to examine how my slashaholic shipping addiction is doing. Well, it's still going strong and, in fact, has started to spread.

Almost right away, this blog became more than simply a Thunderfrost blog. Within a couple of months, I started shipping Frostiron too. Loki and Tony just could not be held back!

And now this year, Thor has a new lover as well -- that nice young Steve Rogers who leads the Avengers as Captain America. Thor is bringing him out!

Yeah, baby, yeah, I ship them all and I ship them hard, just like my boys.

Same-sex love is a beautiful thing.

Thor and Steve: THUNDERSHIELD

They are Avenger teammates, fellow warriors, shield brothers.

Thor helps Cap soar, quite literally. Arms around each other, bodies pressed together, how could one thing not lead to another?

So when they're off the clock, their time is still spent together. They soar in a whole different way.

And who can blame them for taking comfort in each other?

Loki and Tony: FROSTIRON

It's a surprising and reckless relationship. Tony should know better. So should Loki, for that matter.

["Iron and Mischief"

by Qwistie]

But Loki has such exquisitely sensitive erogenous zones on that long and graceful neck, how can Tony resist kissing him? He is in thrall to his secret lover and doesn't care. Tony's powerful attraction to Loki is the same whether he is in Asgardian form, in Midgardian form or . . .

[edit by freakinmi]

. . . in Jotun form. Tony cannot get enough of him. And it's mutual.

All they want to do is Fuck. All. The. Time.

Thor and Loki: THUNDERFROST

Beneath the jealousy and the rivalry, beneath the armour and the weapons, beneath the deception and the betrayal, the lovers and brothers are joined in a primal and eternal embrace.

[by sincerelyxii]

It was, is and always will be Thor and Loki against the world -- against all Nine Worlds if need be.

Nothing can stop them and nothing can keep them apart, not even themselves.

[by DeerAzeen]

No matter how many other lovers they have, Thor and Loki always return to each other. Thunderfrost is their Fate, their Destiny, their Doom, their Salvation.
