Tom...and anything else that comes to mind

through the years

avengers premiere 2012

He was wiping his mouth with the back of his hand and eyeing her lasciviously when her thoughts flew to one simple question that had the potential to afford her enough time to come up with something better.

What would Loki do?

Outmanned, outgunned, against an adversary that dominated him in every way and running out of time…Loki would forget about fighting, drop negotiations, and throw caution and reason aside in favor of pure unadulterated trickery.

She scrambled to think of something that would make him proud of her.

Chapter 25 - The Trickster Queen - is up! (will reblog with tags)

No one had mentioned it, but even without his powers he could sense the magnetic disturbance just to the east of where he stood.  He knew what would probably happen if he tried to cross it with the collar on. Being this close to it was making his hair stand up, shivery prickles running across the skin on the back of his neck that set his teeth on edge.  But no matter how tempting it was to just hurl himself at it and see what happened, one thing kept him standing on the ledge, staring out over the Valley toward the south.

Anja was out there, headed toward Tarses.  And no matter what it took, he would get to her somehow.

Chapter 24 - The Gathering - is up!

Do NOT let that beast put his hands Anja. 

*ahem*

Pardon my shouting. Just...I’m squicking big time for poor Anja.

“I don’t know how much longer I’ll have powers, there’s something about this planet’s magnetic output that seems to be tampering with my Seidr.”  He didn’t appear the least bit saddened by the prospect of losing his abilities, turning a wide smile to Cara as he shifted to slip his arm under her head.  "No longer a king and now no longer a god.  I’m afraid I don’t have much left to offer you.“

“Wolf boy, I think you’ll find I don’t need either a king or a god.  I don’t need much of anything.”  Kissing the underside of his chin, she snuggled in closer under his arm.  "I don’t even need you, strictly speaking…but need and want are two entirely different things, and I’ll confess to being possessed of a mighty want.“

Chapter 17 - The Conclusion Of The Matter - is up!

I wasn’t expecting it to be over!  OMG. I didn’t have a chance to emotionally prepare myself. 

But...thank you for this. I loved this fic, as I love pretty much everything you write. Your skill at weaving a story never fails to blow me away, and even when they end, I know there will be something else coming up.

A/N:  Well, folks, this is the last chapter.  I have more notes about that at the end of this, but let’s get right to the good stuff.  Thank you for reading, thank you for commenting and reblogging, and thank you for sticking with me, Tom, and Kate over the last 2 years.

20’s slang: brown plaid- Scotch whiskey; doll- a woman; piffle- baloney, bullshit; get a wiggle on- get going; ‘The Great Impersonation’- popular identity theft/murder mystery novel from 1920; quiff- a slut or cheap prostitute

Contains: dom/bossy!Tom, so much dirty talk, sex, more sex, more dirty talk, and some fluff.  Explicit/smut/NSFW

Chapter Index (mobile friendly)

I stretched, arching cat-like in Tom’s bed, pushing my limbs out until they began to shake and my spine crackled.  I collapsed back into the sheets, breathing out a deep sigh.  I was still wrapped in Tom’s dressing gown, the worn silk luxuriously soft and slippery on my bare skin, my body still glowing from his attentions, and my mind quiet and content.

Tom wasn’t in the room.  There wasn’t a breakfast tray or note, so after flipping idly through the book of poetry on his bedside table, I resorted to staring at the door.  Huh. Where is he?  Another ten minutes passed of me poking around his shelves and he still hadn’t come back.

My stomach gave a demanding growl.  Well, that seals it.  I looked in the bathroom for the clothes I’d worn yesterday, but whether he’d given them to William to launder or just thrown them away, I couldn’t find them.

Now I can go back and read this, from start to finish, like a well-loved novel.

Cara stood outside the enclosure, counting the wolves for the third time just to be sure.  There was no mistake, they were all there.

He’s back.

Breaking into a wide grin, she pulled her phone out and dialed a number, winking at one of the wolves that had edged over to the fence to stare at her.

“Hey Pop, could you run me out to Los Rios?  I need to pick up a friend that just got into town.”

“This is an outrage, you betray your own son to kiss that warmongerer’s ass!”

“That warmongerer can level this city and the rest of the kingdom in a matter of days with the army he has amassed.  You would sacrifice millions to keep your bed warmed by a bride that was never rightfully yours?”

The look of pure loathing that engulfed Loki’s face left it all but unrecognizable.  Never had he felt such hatred, such unadulterated despising for another being as he felt now for Odin.

“And you would sacrifice an innocent soul whom you once thought of as your own child to avoid dirtying your hands further in this travesty?  Your treachery truly knows no bounds, Odin AllFather.”  He spat the name with the last of his gasping breath like it was bitter poison on his tongue.

You must fix this. IMMEDIATELY.

“you have three or four minutes to tell a story, make someone shake their ass or stomp their foot or melt their hearts. music transports you to any place in time and space you have in your memories, a specific period in your life.”

With the hotness.

EPILOGUE

TWO YEARS, TWO MONTHS LATER

You still look like a movie

You still sound like a song

Autumn had arrived; there was no doubt about it that morning. A cold wind blew across the plantation, and spotty yellow-brown leaves were gathering in huddles around the roots of the poplars and in small heaps against the fence posts. The bare soil of the ploughed field the other side of the boundary smelt sweet in the damp air as he trundled along the narrow path on his lawn tractor.

“Bailey! Capa! C’mon!”

I couldn’t clear my head enough to sort out what I should do and his voice, that deep growling baritone, had haunted me all day and kept me from thinking straight…I could still hear him panting and groaning till finally there was a strangled gutteral snarl that signaled his release and cued me that it was time to get down off the crate and hightail it for the crest on shaky legs before he put himself back together and returned to the herd.

Or worse, found me sprawled in the mud outside his window.

The little gasping moan that had come right before the snarl was seriously messing with me.

And after all that obsessing, I still didn’t have any idea what I should do.

“homes are tangible things. music and acting are not. renovating houses is still an art form for me, from designing to building, and it’s something i can touch.”

A/N:  Who could resist leather-bound sex club Tom?!  Not me, that’s for sure.  Those Interview photos were deadly.  So… here is some total porn with no plot whatsoever holding it back.  It’s explicit, bossy, full of leather, not at all responsible behavior… Enjoy! (Sorry to my betas for not waiting until everyone got back to me- we’re all having a busy weekend.)  

Summary: Being in charge of costumes at a male strip club has its perks- in particular, one Tom Hiddleston dancing in leather.  After a successful show, Tom makes his interest- and his kinks- known.

Contains: Sex, leather, very bossy/Dom Tom, dirty talk, NSFW/explicit

“Your sets were fantastic tonight, Tom!”  I hung the heavy leather trenchcoat up on the garment rack.  “Just- the way you walked and the… the…”  I swallowed against the saliva building in my mouth, picturing his strut down the stage in this jacket, the smolder in his eyes, the sweat soaking his chest under the apron- “Yeah… it was… just fantastic.”

Tom had done two performances tonight as his alter-ego Hans.  He sauntered and swiveled and thrust his way through the bass-heavy music, the flashing lights sparking off his burnished gold hair.  The audience had gone insane, each piece of lost clothing resulting in louder screams.  And I couldn’t blame them.  He had been on fire tonight.  He was always good- although with a body and face like his, all he really had to do was show up- but tonight… In my 6 months of working here, I had never seen him like this.

It was taking all Thor had to hold Loki in place as the portal opened in front of them.  He tried not to look - he actively feared looking into any sort of abyss, having seen firsthand what it did to Loki, but the God of Chaos was standing straight and tall before it, his eyes locked unmovingly on the blackness that swirled and exploded, threatening to pull them both into its heart.  There was no fear on his face…in fact, if anything, there was a pure unfettered joy as he stared down the abyss of his own creation.

He owns this darkness, Thor realized.  He’s not afraid of it.
