Maybe. Most likely they don't care because they think they're going to make big money off it.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

I don't know if anyone here is in XMFC fandom or not, but here's a brilliant fic on the XMFC kink meme done to all the tunes from Once More, With Feeling. [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is anyone here in or familiar with Avengers movie fandom? I was just exposed to my first Thor+young Loki, and I was wondering if I stumbled into a tiny pocket of interest, or there's a sizable contingent for whom young Loki (hanging with or banging) adult Thor is a thing.
Supernatural fandom is the only place I am routinely exposed to unilateral age regression, but it does seem to vary who they de-age, and I don't see many people actually shipping it during that period.
I'm curious.

ita !, the Infamous BlueJay is pretty heavily into the Avengers movie fandom, so I'll ask her.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I avoid all Thor/Loki (and really, all Loki), so I couldn't tell you.
Not enough Clint, is my complaint.

I cannot seem to avoid the Thor/Loki, and I'm not interested it in the least. Boggled hard when I saw the adult Thor/underage Loki NC-17 fanart, because halloo with the not expecting it.
Now I keep seeing kid Loki all over the place, and I can't work out if I stumbled into a rabbit hole, or this is what the terrain really looks like.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I didn't think there was a huge age difference between Thor and Loki. Wasn't there a kid!Thor and kid!Loki scene in the movie? They looked a couple of years apart, at most.
Unless you are saying fandom is selectively regressing Loki so that adult!Thor could get it on with underaged Loki, and to that I raise a hearty EWWWW.
Tom Hiddleston is a pretty good actor and made Loki fairly interesting, but the whole woobiefication of the villain thing is kinda eyerolltastic, to be frank. Not that I'm surprised at it or anything.

It's not always sexual, but it is a pattern of age regressing Loki and not Thor, which is why it stuck out.

For the last year or so Loki has been age regressed to his early teens in the Thor comics, which might be influencing fanfic trends.
