Dragons:TNR Jörmungandr redesign (rework?) concept

(Also I know that my design pushes beyond limits of TNR animation in more than one way but here I just had fun lol)

I feel like he is not intimidating enough in original. He is very small for an "Apex predator of all dragons" (and let's remember that TNR has Giants Realm so-). I expected him to slide way longer when he was escaping his prison. He also had a lot of troubles with catching dragons (it was honestly sad to watch) And yes, as far as I know snakes are expecionally challenging to rig and animate and TNR doesn't have movie-level budget, but c'mon. It's The Final Boss. (*I think that in concept art he actually is longer so perhaps they shortened him to make animation easier (and cheaper??) considering mad speed seasons were coming out)

Sidenote - that poor danger noodle had so little of any kind of build up. It's really sad. And the first time we see him live he: did shitty jumpscare (build up was actually decent imo, but sound effect and bad animation humbled it), had short, off-screen fight with Sky Torcher after which he didn't even kill him (though he did at least leave some nasty scars and broke Torchie's tooth), and then fucked away. For me it was very underhelming.

Low quality clip for those who didn't watch (I hope Tumblr won't take it down).

Coming back to the design. I really don't like his colors. He got wings but to compensate I decided that he's not a good flier. In my mind he is an ambush hunter. And I know that THE Jörmungandr, the spawn of Loki from the myths, did not have wings, and this is pretty consistent as far as I know, but it is not THE Jörmungandr, so yeah

He is in some way mix between King Cobra, Moray Eel and sea snakes (Yellow-Lipped Sea Krait mostly). I changed his hood to be more similar in construction to a king cobra. In short, it is a bit of loose skin and ribs with the ability to move. In my design, the tips of some of the ribs poke through the skin. Now I don't think TNR would be able to animate it (But i'm not very familiar with 3D animation, especially for shows) so in show he probably would just have hood always flared. His head and sail are inspired by mooray eel because they are dope and I love them. I feel that aspects of sea snakes have died in design - they have a paddle at the end of the tail, but this has already been included in the OG design, so I don't feel the need to talk about it. However, like Sea Krait, Jörmungandr is semi-aquatic. He is much slower on land than in the water, but the difference is not as great as with Sea Krait.

I increased his size - and if he wasn't inprisoned he probably would be about 15-25% longer by now. He's old enough to be a Titan Wing but he isn't normal size - he stopped growing a bit after outgrowing average dragon of his species (let's remember that Red Death is Titan Wing as well!).

*Jörmungandr is longer but Red Death is more massive. Avarage serpents are slightly shorter than Red Death as well.

To be honest, I'm not sure if I didn't overkill it with his size. On the one hand he is large, on the other hand he is mostly long and not that massive. Idk

In addition to the scars, I think Jörmungandr would also be covered with small amounts of moss and other vegetation that started growing on him when he wasn't really active (his cave is very wet/moisty). To survive he spent almost his entire life in a state of brumation, being more active when he sensed meal approaching his reach.

Now, in my mind The Jörmungandr is the name of this particular dragon, not the whole species (Midgard Serpents? IDK), and at the same time he is not a "real" Jörmungandr from the myths. Because words cannot describe how I hate that plot.

I don't know how exactly he got his name but I think it was not because of how big he is, but because of his intelligence and mischievous soul. Again, idk.

Jörmungandr is a tragic dragon. In my version he was not trapped by Hiccup (in my version Hiccup never come back to Hidden World, because c'mon. I don't really like THW but if TNR is continity to that franchise they should follow established canon and not wreck last movie and make it completely insignificant. It loses all it's value if Hiccup, his family and perhaps other vikings, just come back and maybe even lived in the Hidden World anyway! If we have to have human marks and structures, etc. in the Hidden World, I would do it more in the style of “Haddock's Cycle” than “Hiccup and Tom.” Essentially, the creator of these changes is perhaps one of Hiccup's descendants, Tom's ancestors - the "soul of the dragon" that Hiccup and before him his mother had, summoning them to the world of dragons to see "Is it finally time? ”, but it never is, not yet anyway. Idk, I'm trying lol)

I have two concepts: There was once a main entrance to his part of the Dark Realm accompanianed by the waterfalls of magma, but now there's only basalt wall. This would make the closure possible for natural reasons and give Tom an opportunity to show off his geoligical knowledge some more.

Or he was caged in human-build prison, but not by Hiccup. I did that little sketch of how his page in Dragon Book could look in this scenario. Clearly different artstyle than Hiccup's to show that he was not the one to write about this individual (tho in show there's already different styles so--) But at the second thought it can be just illustration for species as whole, so anyway

In both cases, there are ways to enter his personal prison but he is too large to use them. They are still usefull as this is the only way prey will come to his reach. Not many dragons can escape his jaws.

He has spent most of his life in a rather hostile environment to which he was not adapted, which has left scars on his body and psyche. When he's not hunting, he sleeps. Hunger has halted his growth.

Jörmungandr is a damaged, dangerous dragon, the victim of fate and unknown past.

The psychological damage has made him hyper-aggressive, even by the standards of an already aggressive species. I don't think he could ever satiate his hunger either - if he could he would hunt and eat until he consumed everything in range or died of overeating.

For this dragon, it seems too late for a happy ending, unfortunately.

Now about the Midgard Serpents (placeholdern name, I have no idea how to name them) as a whole. Apex Predator may be a bit much, given the existence of dragons like Red Death, Purple Death or Bewilderbeast. However, Midgard Serpents remain one of the dragons that feed almost exclusively on other dragons (and sometimes even other members of their own species - they're cannibalistic), and they're damn good at it. When they feel best in the water, they can follow their prey in the sky or on land. They grow quite large and still are able to take down prey more massive than themselves (mostly thanks to venom and poisonous gas).

I think they are the main predators of 'Deaths and Bewilderbeasts (and other equally large dragons) in the earlier stages of life.

[ellulemmu]

My take on a fully grown Jörmungandr

[ashleybenlove]

Yeah, Hiccup was right and also, I am terrified to know what it was like for the Viking Riders to deal with that dragon.

When the Dragon Club first discovers about Jörmungandr's existence and how he's been locked away in the Dark Realm for the past 1,300 years, I genuinely thought that this episodes was going to be like one of those "oh, The Big Bad isn't actually the Big Bad, but just Scary And Misunderstood and we're going to find out that Hiccup was actually wrong about locking it away, teaching Tom that sometimes the people before us were wrong."

Then Thunder unlocked Jörmungandr's cage to save Tom's life, much to the horror of the Dragon Club kids, and the first thing that thing did was eat the Sky Torcher Buzzsaw brought. A really big dragon!

Just grabbed him by his neck, dragged him into the cage, and ate him.

You could hear the crunching noises.

Like Snotlout once eloquently said... Hiccup is always right.

Asgard según El Cadejos

God Robes

The seven (eight) original God Robes are and represent

Dubhe Alpha - Fafnir

Merak Beta - Sleipnir

Phecda Gamma - Jörmungandr

Megrez Delta - ?

Alioth Epsilon - Fenrisúlfr

Mizar Zeta -  Saber Tooth tiger

Benetasch Eta - ?

The Princess of Asgard and her heir are aware of who is a candidate, but wait until the will of the gods manifests itself (instead of telling them beforehand). We see the God Robes have been slumbering undisturbed for a long time. Dubhe Alpha in the volcano outer walls, Merak Beta inside and under magma, and so on.

The anime is vague on what determines who can wear a God Robe, so I narrowed it down to two options

Those whose bloodline ties them to a specific God Robe

Those who are worthy

The former case seems to apply to Fenrir, Syd, Bud, and Siegfried.

Alioth Epsilon was inside the family manor (quite simbolic for it to be exactly behind the family crest, which also happens to feature two wolf heads). To consider, the fact that Loki » Fenrir » Hati / Sköll solidifies the importance of blood ties.

Mizar and Alcor Zeta reference a creature that doesn’t belong to Norse mythology, and also did not live in this region at all (Smilidon were local to Asia and America, not Europe). It seems too much of a coincidence for both God Robes and a family crest to illustrate the same animal.

Finally, we have Dubhe Alpha, which references a formidable dragon from Norse mythology, and Siegfried shares the name of the legendary hero who defeated it (as well as being their direct descendant). In a way, this shows how his bloodline is that of the true Asgardian dragon slayers, worthy of weilding power from Fafnir (99% invulnerability) after killing it.

Regarding those who are worthy, we know Alberich is Asgard’s brightest mind. Even if he were not as physically formidable as the others, he is skilled enough to weild a sword, and strategize ahead to have a clear advantage over his opponent (there’s even evidence that his ancestor was also a skilled warrior, fighting Dohko).

Thor is not only tall, strong, and formidable in combat. He is also a caring individual who takes risks for the greater good, hunting on royal grounds (which is forbidden) to feed those less fortunate around him.

Though I believe Asgardians have a natural tendency towards manifesting some ice when using cosmos (as seen with Hilda in general, and the twins when executing the Viking Tiger Claw attacks), Hagen is the only Asgardian skilled enough to have mastered both ice and fire cosmo.

Mime was rasied and trained by the great Asgardian warrior Folker, and was eventually able to kill him after realizing he had murdered Mime’s biological parents. The sheer skill and strength to do so at a young age goes to prove Mime’s prowess.

God Robes in Soul of Gold

There are inconsistencies regarding these armours. In the original saga, the seven (eight) God Robes were directly linked to the Big Dipper asterism in Ursa Major. However, in Soul of Gold they reference creatures from Norse mythology (much like Cloths, Surplices, and Scales do for their respective themes).

The SOG God Robes have Sapphires, but they were quickly discarded for the red gems Loki created, so I take that as a pass to HC that the original ones are in a higher category because their Sapphires are the only ones able to summon Odin’s God Robe (which also tries to explain why these are named after stars, instead of creatures). In SOG, the God Robes reference the following

Gullinbursti

Nidhogg

Tanngrisnir

Eikthyrnir

Grani

Hraesvelgr

Garm

Shadow Robes

Astronomically speaking, there is only one Shadow Robe (Alcor) because Zeta is a double star system. However, this feels incomplete to me within lore, so I have expanded it and designated a Shadow Warrior for each God Warrior. Their main task is to guard the God Warrior from treacherous danger, and act as their right hand (explored a little deeper in this post). Should the God Warrior perish, their Shadow will take their place.

Shadow Robes have no Sapphire, and aside from the mask/helmet eye colors, are completely pearl white. Being the only one with a designated star, Alcor Zeta is their leader.

Odin Sapphire

As mentioned before, all God Robes have a Sapphire, but only the ones linked to a star are able to summon Odin’s God Robe.

In my HC, are God Robes inheritable?

Only those tied to a bloodline can be inherited. Shadow Robes are not inheritable because the person chosen to wear them is directly linked (not necessarily by blood) to the God Warrior they protect.

Characteristics

Robes are warm to the touch of those who wear them, and their Shadows.

[Parental Bond]

Jömungandr took a deep breath as he channeled his energy towards Meredith. While he didn't have a Key Stone, he used the Infinity Energy inside him to link himself to her. Soon, she was enveloped in a light...

Heidi could feel the energy, too; however, unlike Jörmungandr, the energy coming from Meredith was... softer and more disarming. She wasn't sure what this was, but the sense of peace could be felt even more from this surge.

Eventually, the light dissipated, revealing what had finally happened.

Meredith Mega Evolved!

"Hello, Heidi." Meredith waved. Unlike Jörmungandr, she looked different. "I'm sorry if we've been keeping this as a surprise to you."

"..." Heidi understood now. She heard about Meredith's Mega Evolution -- how she could enhance the capabilities of others while being one of the tankiest creatures to walk the land. However, it was always known that the two would never Mega Evolve together in one battle. She wondered why that was.

...speaking of wonder... something else was the matter. The moment the Mega Evolution was complete, she felt a sort of energy cut itself off from her. Strangely, it was like she wasn't providing anything to Meredith in the first place. What was that about?

"So, you two have been planning to Mega Evolve each other from the start, huh?"

"That's right." Meredith nodded. "Ever since you built this body for me and allowed me to reunite with your father, I've been planning for this very moment." She gave Jörmungandr a hug from the side. "Your father had told me of the many feats that you've done during the war, and detailed your other achievements since you've come from this world -- our new home. You've grown so much and gained so much valor since the day I left you on Southern Island all of those years ago. I had so much faith in you that you'd grow into a strong and loving dragon -- yet you eventually found a way to surpass even my wildest expectations. I could not be more proud to be your mother...."

"...? That's nice and I'm happy that you're proud of me but--" Heidi crossed her arms. "What does that have to do with... well... all of that?" Heidi gestured to Meredith's... well... everything.

"Is it not obvious, little one?" Meredith giggled. "You've achieved so much and reached such great heights. It was an inevitability that we'd test you ourselves."

"... but like, you weren't someone that liked battling, though. I still remember when you taught me so much about finding peace and tranquility instead of seeking violence when I was a little girl. Even in war, you were more of a healer and helper than a fighter."

"...and yet I was also the one to train many of our soldiers to a base level, as well as one of the leaders of the Kalos War."

"Wh--huh!? You were a what?"

"Oh, my sweet, lovely daughter. It seems that there is more to me than you knew." Meredith giggled. "Yes. I was one of the army leaders of the Kalos War 3,000 years ago. It was actually how I got to know your father so well in the first place. Much of my help was with morale, healing and boosting, sure, but I could hold my own in a fight should the need to regroup arise."

"Huh. Well then. The more you know."

"Your mother and I have trained to be in tune with each other's Mega Evolutions for some time." Jörmungandr nodded. "Unfortunately, the only individual to ever see that progress was our Arceus, as we were forbidden from working together while both of us are Mega Evolved during the war."

"Huh? That's... strangely specific. I heard that no one has ever seen the two of you Mega Evolve at the same time, but I just attributed it to the rumors around you, dad.... You know, powerful enough to make armies surrender and stuff like that?"

Jörmungandr and Meredith looked at each other.

"George.... I told you that your reputation was going to be first on anyone's mind, didn't I?"

Jörmungandr shrugged. "Better forced the intrigue on me than give you more worry, my love."

"Yes, but even with our daughter? Do you know how quickly her feelings about us could change after this?"

"Better you than me. I was never good with words."

"Then, just cut to the chase so we can fight alreadyyyyy--"

"Heh. She sounds just like you, George: so impatient to hear the reason and ready to get to the action." Meredith giggled. Despite her tone, she was enjoying this.

Heidi was slightly offended. "Wow! Rude, mom! I just wanna know what's going on. Why were you guys banned from fighting together as Mega Evolutions?"

Meredith turned back to her child. "...It's because, both times we did so, our combined power was so destructive that it would destroy everything in the Hoenn Region... including the very trainers that Mega Evolved us." She shook her head. "The first time on the battlefield, even with the combined might of Groudon and Kyogre, they were forced to retreat after we decimated them without any effort. The second? Well, it was against Friede herself in her own Origin space. We fought her off valiantly, nearly winning in the end, but the power we were to unleashed would have costed our human companions' lives. As such, we were forced to hold back." Meredith turned to Jörmungandr. "... but now that we don't have humans to watch out for...."

"...You want to unleash everything on me, the new Arceus, without holding anything back." Heidi's heart started to sink. Did they really fight Friede way back then and nearly win? Could they really have destroyed an entire region by themselves? From the sounds of it, did she even want to risk staying in this form? "This isn't just a lesson and a progress check for me.... This is to finish what you started with Friede, isn't it?"

"... One can say that, yes." Jörmungandr took a step forward as Meredith took a step back. "What's a Pokémon without wishing to learn their own full potential these days, hm?"

"...You got a point there." Heidi stretched a little. "Well, if you're really that strong--"

Heidi switched to High Power!

"Then perhaps we shouldn't hold back our own power, either."

"I wouldn't want to have it any other way, Heidi." Now, it was time to show off what they got.

Chapter Fourteen | Masterlist | Chapter Sixteen

Please comment and reblog, it means a lot!

It took five days camping to get Jörmungandr brave enough to make the journey away from the ocean. The young boy had never wanted to leave his home; he knew that Loki would not leave without him, so he made the choice and he chose to take a chance at the family that was being offered to him.  

The morning was peaceful as Jörmungandr sat on the edge of the cliff to look down at the waters that he had called home for centuries. Joining him, Loki smiled as he ruffled the boy’s head and stared out to sea, “taking in the last moments, huh?” 

Jörmungandr rested his head on his knees and sighed as he watched the waves crash against the cliffside with a sad smile, “it’ll feel weird for a few days, dad… After spending so long underwater and being cut off from the rest of the world… it feels surreal that I’m leaving. Sure, I could leave the sea for a short while, but it was only a week at most. I learnt about Asgard, about you. I didn’t want to meet you because of it.” 

Loki snarled and turned to look at Jörmungandr with a frown, “my son, I did not give you and your siblings up willingly, trust me. Odin took you one by one and as he did, he took shards and shards of my heart. I loved you and your siblings. You meant the world to me.” 

“But why were we stolen in the first place? Why were we so dangerous to Odin that he would condemn children to such a terrible fate?” Jörmungandr whispered and Loki frowned, pulling the boy closer and kissing his head gently.  

Loki knew that questions would arise, questions about which he didn’t know a lot about apart from how much it sickened him. So, reluctantly, he looked at Jörmungandr and smiled, “Ragnarök, Jörmy, it was foretold that you and your siblings would bring about Ragnarök.” 

Jörmungandr shot up to his feet, appalled by the assumption of the elders of Asgard, “how dare they! We are children! Why, by the Allfather's name, would we bring about Ragnarök to a place that should have been our home?!” 

Loki frowned and then his lips turned into a comforting smile before he stood and took Jörmungandr into his arms, kissing his hair and stroking his back lovingly. As a mother would to her womb child. Gently, he pulled away so Jörmungandr could see him and held his cheek as he mumbled, “do not worry, my child, Ragnarök will not come now. Odin is dead.” 

Jörmungandr released a relieved sigh and then rested his head on Loki’s chest, welcoming his loving hug.  

Packing away the tent, you watched as the boys talked with a small smile on your face. You had a feeling that something was coming soon, and you wanted Loki to spend the most time as possible with his children before this feeling became a reality. You only hoped that Loki felt that something was coming as well because you didn’t know how to describe this feeling of dread spreading around your heart.  

“Mama?” a tiny voice came from beside her and when you looked, you saw Sleipnir at your feet holding the little snake teddy that Loki had procured for him not long ago and you picked him up, rocking him gently as he cuddled into your side with a smile. 

Sleipnir had adapted to being a child very well. He still had his moments where he believed in a moment of tiredness or after a nightmare that he was back with Odin and was still brought into wars that he was too young to see.  It pained Loki to constantly see his son behaving like this, bringing him to tears almost every time.

The moment Sleipnir’s birthday passes in two weeks, Loki planned to decree that he will start training with you to control both his Jötun born magic and his seiðr. Loki was studying his natural magic on his own and he was quick to grab an understanding after putting his bias behind him. Sleipnir Lokison was Loki’s greatest weakness and enemies would soon learn that. One enemy in particular. 

Months passed easily after that. your pregnancy was going well, and Loki had started to adopt the mindset of the protective boyfriend if they ever had to travel to a Realm or even down to Midgard for an extended time. The baby was healthy and safe. Loki knew that you both would welcome this child into the world, and you would make sure that nothing and Loki meant nothing interfered with their upbringing of this baby. 

New Year's eve was a quiet ordeal for the family. Serenity invited the little family around to celebrate and they all stayed up until midnight to watch the fireworks in London, Sleipnir was barely awake as he saw the explosions in the sky and squealing, “like mummy’s night night fireworks!!”  

Much to everyone’s delight. The cute little boy.  

Now, it was the end of February and you were struggling to do tasks on your own without Loki’s gradual intervention in the situation. To you, you seemed so weak to go from being able to do simple tasks like doing your shoes to expecting Loki to do it for you while you sat on a chair in a huff. To Loki, however, he was loving every moment of this new life with you dependent on him. Not in a controlling way but in the way that he loved to do absolutely everything for you.  

One lazy morning, Loki and you were laying in bed and Loki heard a startled gasp, his head snapping up from the pillow to gaze at his fiancée, “what? What is it?” he asked hurriedly, and you smiled lovingly, grazing your growing belly with a soft smile on your face. 

“They kicked,” you whispered with barely disguised wonder, and Loki gasped, getting up on his knees to stare down at your body with his hand hesitating over your belly. You giggled at his hesitation, “you needn’t hesitate, Loki, they’re your baby too.” 

Loki laughed softly as he rested his hand on your stomach in time to feel a gentle kick under his hand and he looked up at you in disbelief before laying down again, his head on your swollen stomach, fingers tracing the stretchmarks all over with a fond smile, “hello, baby, I’m your daddy. I’m going to make sure that your mummy takes very good care of herself and of you.”  

The warmth of your stomach and his joy lulled Loki into a half-awake-asleep state and he kept stroking your stomach lovingly as he imagined his world before you; foggy as it may be.  

Your pregnancy was the turning point of the political side of Loki’s stay on the Moon of Midgard. He had been in contact with King Thor lately and had discussed that students come and accommodate the pristine houses that were going to waste since the decimation of the Moon during the last war. The battle hadn’t spared many and those that lived had sought out refuge on Midgard and had since forgotten who they used to be.  

Reluctantly, Thor drafted a proposal that went out to all seiðr users in Asgard proposing that if they would like to go and live on Midgard’s Moon where they would be able to use the library within the castle to study their seiðr, it was allowed. A bonus? Frigga would also be moving since Thor had long since gained the knowledge to survive being a King on his own.  

Construction had begun last November to create the school that everyone would be going to. There would be a foundation year, lower and upper school. The university being built was for young seiðkona and seiðmadr who wished to study deeper theory or do a degree in politics. All of this was to be free. However, if they wished to go learn at a university in Midgard, they would need to have the appropriate funds to pay or apply for a loan.  

The uniform would be lenient, but they would also ask that a student clearly wear the lanyard either as a bracelet or around their necks. The summer uniform for the girls was to be a simple knee-length blue dress with a sequin belt, leggings, and any shoes they would like to wear and there was no ban on any accessories. For the winter, a green cloak, leggings, fur boots and a blouse that would be charmed with a warmth charm for an extra ten Aesir coins.  As such, a uniform shop was also being built and materials were shipped from Alfheim.

Loki had jumped and whooped with joy when the plans to build the schools were approved by you. You had been eager to get the documents printed and a spot of land declared ownership for the schools being built but Loki could barely believe that this was happening. He was getting a seiðr school for all those who wished to advance their knowledge in more than just warrior training.  

The accommodation was another thing that Loki had needed to discuss with you and Thor, he had pitched the idea of part-time accommodation, full time and timetable only. This would make the school accessible to all who wished to learn seiðr. The commute every day to the school would be tiring so they would only offer it to the ones of the lower, upper school and the university. Foundation, if they so wished to do the everyday commute, would need to be brought down the Bifrost every morning by their parent and sign a form. If a family wished to stay on the Moon for their child’s education, Thor allowed it.  

Loki thought back to his childhood, being forced to try out at warrior training and having to carry on even if it was evident that he was not up to the material needed to continue fighting. He became a warrior in his own right but behind closed doors, seiðr was the subject he excelled in. He hoped that with the school, he could give children a better chance at learning seiðr than he got as a child.  

Fenrir, Jörmungandr and Sleipnir would have access to the school when it was built as they were very behind in their practising of seiðr. Loki wanted them all to practice as well for any case that Loki was not there to protect them himself.  

You had even agreed to send their child to the school once they were old enough so that the baby could grow up learning both Aesir seiðr and Jötnar.  

That’s right, Loki had even agreed to Jötnar joining the school. 

Well, that was what the meeting on this sweet February day was for. He needed to speak to his dam about the situation with the Bifrost.  

“Loki,” you whispered, snapping Loki out of his daze and imagination to look up at you, head still resting on your stomach, “we have to start getting ready, my love.”  

Loki groaned and turned his head away, nuzzling your stomach and gasping when he felt a kick to his cheek, “alright! Both of you bully me!”  

You laughed and slapped his head before Loki stood up and walked into the bathroom. Staring into the mirror, Loki groaned when he realised that today wasn’t exactly a masculine day for him. Reaching up, he smoothed out the side of his jaw, making it more feminine. Brushing a hand over her hair, it grew in length until it reached her backside with delicate ringlets. The rest of her body shifted into her female form, breasts forming and her shape becoming lean and feminine, broad shoulders being replaced by delicate ones.  

Smiling at the Loki she saw in the mirror, Loki sighed and walked over to the shower, turning it on and setting it to the coldest temperature before stepping in and proceeding with her routine. While doing so, she thought about how the meeting today might go. Would Laufey be against letting Jötnar mingle with Aesir or would her dam agree with her eagerness and let the Jötnar attend?  

Stepping out of the shower, a green shimmer surrounded Loki as she dried herself and her hair curled in little delicate ringlets. Her towel was exchanged for a beautiful floor-length evening dress with an emerald cloak flowing off her shoulders, latched onto the straps of her dress by little diamond pins. Her hair became styled with tiny diamonds and emeralds, linking your birthstone and his favourite stone. Loki smiled lovingly to herself as she spun around, knowing that no one would suspect her of wearing comfy fluffy boots underneath her dress.  

“Are you almost done in there?” Came the voice from her beautiful fiancée and Loki giggled before stepping out into the bedroom to see you struggling to tie her sneakers with a grimace on her face. 

“Here, let me,” Loki mumbled and walked over to you, sitting you down on the bed as Loki knelt in front of you to tie your laces. 

You looked down at the Goddess before you and smirked to yourself, “a Goddess is kneeling for me. Who knew?”  

Loki giggled and shook her head fondly as she kissed up your leg from your foot to your thigh and only stopped when you shot her a warning glare. Relenting, Loki shrugged and stood up with an easy smile and offered you her hand. Taking it, you gasped when your nightgown was replaced by a cosy jumper with Loki’s symbol stitched onto the front with comfy black leggings.  

“You look ravishing, my darling,” Loki breathed and pulled you close to her with a bright smile while you squealed as she kissed you deeply, her hand pressed onto your pregnant belly affectionately. You smiled at the affection that Loki was giving you, and you sighed happily at the overwhelming affection Loki gave off. 

When they finally reached the throne room, Laufey was already inside with Farbauti and Býleistr, Loki’s second brother. Loki smiled welcomingly at them but knew to hold his tongue as you took your seat on the throne.  

With a deep bow, Laufey gazed up at the very pregnant Queen with a look that Loki knew to be a look of a longing mother. She should know, she had that look on her face constantly when she saw thriving families on Asgard.  

“Many thanks for coming today, King Laufey,” you smiled and held a hand on your stomach lovingly as you turned to look at Loki, “I believe your daughter wishes to speak now. Loki, you have free speech.” 

Loki bowed her head to her beloved before walking down the steps to where Laufey was, engulfing the giant into a hug with a small smile on her face. Laufey was surprised but relented easily into hugging his daughter happily, “it has been ages since you willingly accepted my hugs, Loptr.”  

Loki giggled and nuzzled her face further into Laufey’s chest, “I am glad you are here, Dam, it has been a long time since we last spoke. I am here for political matters though… About the school for seiðr users.” 

Laufey’s eyes widened before he smiled brightly and clapped his hands, “oh yes! Once we got the rough drafts off young Y/N, we were beyond thrilled to accept. Especially with a whole course just dedicated to learning our seiðr, our history, and our culture! You truly are a phenomenon, Loptr!”  

Shocked, Loki said nothing for a long while before tears formed in her eyes and she sobbed much to Laufey’s confusion. Seeing his first-born child crying broke his heart and he knew that Loki deserved to be protected forever. Sniffling, Loki smiled up at Laufey, “thank you, Dam. I haven’t been complimented like that since I was little.”  

Laufey chuckled softly before pulling Loki off him gently and sitting down on the marble floor with him, “now, tell us all of the details!” 

And so, Loki did. For five hours. Laufey just had so many questions and Loki was happy to oblige her dam with a bright smile on her face. She was eager to please him, and she knew that Laufey would always be proud of her, no matter what. Farbauti was curious and leapt at the opportunity of teaching more people at Jötunheim. Byleistr was more judgemental but Loki knew that he was curious too, just hidden behind a wall. 

A bell rung to announce that dinner had been served, pulling Loki and her family out of their keen conversation. Eagerly walking over to you, she shook you awake and laughed softly as you protested and rolled your head the other way. Instead, Loki picked you up bridal style and started walking to the dining room with her family while you were dozing innocently in her arms.  

Loki carefully placed her sleepy Queen onto the chair at the head of the table as Laufey and the rest of the Jötun family sat along the table, sizing themselves down to fit onto the chairs offered. Loki smiled at them, silently thanking them for following Midgardian customs rather than staying in their giant forms. Byleistr didn’t look happy at the prospect of being smaller than his big sister but one look from Farbauti had him holding his tongue and sighing.  

The feast was served, and Loki made sure that you had a full plate. You needed to keep your energy up if you were going to grow a Jötun in your womb. Groggily, you picked up your fork and sliced a piece of meat off your plate to eat it, still looking to your side to wave off the tiredness you felt. Loki watched her soulmate with such joy, beyond overwhelmed at the realisation that this was real. They were going to have a baby together.  

Dinner was a quiet affair as everyone contentedly ate their meats and enjoyed the wild boar brought in from one of Thor’s quests with his troops through the forests of Asgard. He wouldn’t admit it, but Byleistr loved the taste of the medium rare meat on his teeth, the blood fitting his standards and maybe going above them. 

Farbauti looked over at you once you were more awake and she giggled, hiding it behind her hand gracefully, “my dear Y/N, you remind me a lot of how Laufey behaved before when he was pregnant with little Loptr. Our child was very energetic in the womb, and so curious... maybe he never lost that curiosity. Loptr, my darling, pass me the gravy?” 

Loki rolled her eyes tenderly before grabbing the gravy pot and handing it over to her with his seiðr. You watched the interaction between them with a gentle smile before resting your head on your hands, elbows on the table as you smirked, “so tell me more about baby Loki.” 

“My love, please,” Loki whined, seemingly embarrassed by the request made by you to her sire. You smirked at Loki’s embarrassment and shrugged before looking at Farbauti eagerly.  

Farbauti smiled and looked to Laufey, who was pestering Byleistr about the way he was cutting the meat, “oh Laufey was such a grump when he was pregnant with Loptr. He had cravings and all that but by the Norns, if we did something less than perfect by even a slither! I once had to sleep in a guest room of the castle because I wasn’t done in the hot springs when he was. Loptr made him very very moody.” 

Loki groaned in embarrassment before sighing and shaking her head affectionately as she glared at her sire, “please, I hardly think this is meal-worthy talk.” 

You snorted and rolled your eyes, “Loki, lighten up a little. It’s baby you! How could I not be interested in what you were like? I never saw you growing up.” 

Loki rolled her eyes and sipped her Aesir mead as she looked away from the family, her cheeks tinted pink.  

After Loki’s family had finished their dinner and said goodbye, Loki guided you back to their living room and helped you onto the sofa before slipping in behind you and pulling you back, your head resting easily on Loki’s breast. Smiling, Loki’s hand gravitated towards your stomach, and she tenderly stroked the evident swell of your stomach with a dumb smile. 

“A baby of our own, Y/N, how unbelievable... it's all I have imagined for years now...” Loki muttered, and you smiled lovingly as you turned your head to look up at Loki with a breathy laugh. Loki shared her smile and leaned down to kiss you tenderly.  

Your hand rested on top of Loki’s, and you smiled lovingly at her while helping Loki circle your stomach in a gentle circle, “a baby to make our family almost complete. We just need...” 

Loki’s heart stopped at the realisation of who she had to save last, her beautiful daughter. She hadn’t forgotten the agony she had felt when Hel was lost. The dull, broken sensation she felt when she saw her crib empty. How her last love had died of a broken heart because all of her children were taken from them.  

“Hel...” she whimpered, tears brimming in her eyes despite trying to hold them back with all of her might.  

“We’ll find her, Loki, as we have with the rest... Odin’s magic is no longer holding her. It’s curious that she is not back already. Her banishment was different to the others and now that Odin is dead, she should be back by now,” you mumbled as you looked up at the ceiling. 

Loki scoffed and ceased the rubbing of your stomach, becoming too lost in thought to take any notice, “Odin’s magic is still strong. The disguise I wear right now is still his magic. It has not worn off even though Odin is dead. I assume it shall stay as strong as this for a good time yet. Therefore, Hel will be held for much longer.” 

You frowned but nodded your understanding, hating how right Loki was about Odin’s seiðr. You had felt his power the moment you stepped into Asgard that first time all those centuries ago and even with your last visit to Asgard just last week, you felt his power still lingering in the air when you searched for it. Odin still had a hold on Asgard even if he was dead. He was the Allfather, after all.  

Loki helped her pregnant fiancée to her feet half an hour later after laying in the quiet, simply peacefully existing together in the silence of your home as the children were in the care of Serenity for the day.  Loki missed these quiet moments with her beloved and she smiled when she remembered that once she had wished for her children back and now, she was getting them all back. She wished she could go to the past and tell her past self that everything would work out, but she had a feeling that the idea would not sit well with anyone. 

Walking back to the bedroom, Loki smiled as you eyed the bed eagerly and waddled your way over to the bed, laying on your back and moaning in relief as your back popped in all the right places, making you even more relaxed. Stripping herself of the elegant dress, Loki quickly joined you with a bright smile, head on your chest as she gazed down at your pregnant belly. 

“Think they can hear us?” Loki mumbled as she caressed your stomach for the thousandth time, unable to keep your hands off of you for more than two minutes. 

You giggled at the tender gesture, and you rolled your eyes affectionately, “I believe with every fibre of my being that they can hear us. That they will know their mama is obsessing over their health so much when they’re going to be perfectly fine.” 

Loki laughed softly and shook her head tenderly as she held your hand gently with her free hand, smiling lovingly when a gentle kick thudded through your belly.  

“Well, they certainly know how to kick. Don’t say anything but if they love to kick this much, we might have to send them off to Asgard instead of your school. I bet Uncle Thor would get a kick out of training our child,” you smirked, and Loki laughed loudly. 

Loki knew that their child would be powerful, but she would never subject your child to the brutal training that Aesir have gone through, “no, we agreed that the little rascal would go to our school and that is final.” 

You rolled your eyes fondly, your nails brushing through Loki’s hair affectionately, “we agreed. We both know our child will do wonderful things in this family and I cannot wait to see what they do. They’re going to become a miracle… a Midgardian and a Jötun having a baby… it’s never been done before.” 

Loki hummed with approval as she held you close to her, “I believe our child will be one of the best because they will have an amazing mother,” she kissed your brow and smiled lovingly at you, “an amazing set of brothers,” you giggled at that and Loki showered your face with adoring kisses before sitting up on her knees and gesturing to herself with a smug smirk, “and the most powerful parent in the Nine Realms.” 

Dramatically, you draped your arm over her eyes and sighed, “oh woe is me! I’m stuck with an egotistical emo boy! Gods above save me!” 

Loki rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, playing along easily, “ah ah, darling, you’re the one that is carrying my baby. There is no saving you now!” 

You rolled your eyes and pulled Loki back down to cuddle you and you smiled brightly as Loki kissed all of your knuckles and pressed you gently into her front, adoring the scent of the shampoo that you adored using. Kissing your head gently, Loki mumbled lovingly into your ear, “now sleep, beloved, we’ve had a successful day. Don’t worry, I have you.” 

With that, you fell right to sleep in the arms of your beloved.

Okay I haven't seen this one before but I love this already, thank you @aohendo!

Template is here.

The literal story of Serpents They Stone does essentially boil down to "I could fix Badb, the crow war goddess that was trained from birth to be a demented killer of chaos", so let's all fix Badb, shall we?!

Hestia: I can fix her (and of course no one listened)

Loki: "I can fix her" Yeah? Well I could accept her as she is. You don't like the murder? Grow up. The atrocities are part of her and I've decided they're funny

Huītzilōpōchtli: I can fix her by making her worse

Mímir: I could fix her, but whatever's going on with her is much more amusing

Wadjet: "I can fix her" Okay Bob the Builder, relax

Hel: "I can fix her" You can't even fix your sleep schedule bestie

Jörmungandr: I love her, no matter how many men, women and children she’s killed (in her infinite simping)

A certain Dreamer master I will leave unnamed because spoilers: "I can fix her" That's cute. I can break her. I can leave her a shell of a person

Medusa: I can stick around and see how much she can fuck up. Kinda like watching a trainwreck

[dr-lokidottir]

As someone who's been betrayed by people I considered to be my family, honestly, Tyr got off pretty easy only losing a hand for that betrayal. But hey, I'm biased.

Well I've been waiting for a question like this for a long time!

Tyr and Fenrir: a story where both were betrayed.

I want to clarify that this is SPG. and UPG.

We all know the story where Hel, Jörmungandr and Fenrir were taken to Asgard. There are many paintings where they are portrayed as children, not as adults and much less as dangerous beings, because they were not and never were. They were simply feared because of their appearance, leaving much to think about. And I must repeat this: they used to be children.

Let's talk about Tyr.

My boyfriend works with him. He is an incredible God. Tyr is the God of war, but I want to emphasize that he is the God of order and justice.

Tyr and Fenrir in their meeting.

According to the Eddas, Tyr was the only "brave" God (and perhaps not brave, but with the brains not to judge another by his appearances), who fed Fenrir. In my mind and of many others, they played together, became best friends, and Tyr spent all his time with him. We all know the relationship was wonderful. Tyr cared for him, fed him, and offered his trust. We know that Fenrir did not trust the Gods at all, but Tyr earned his trust.

The Wolf the Æsir brought up at home, and Týr alone dared go to him to give him meat.

Gylfaginning XXXI-XL

The betrayal of Fenrir, and why I am sure that they also betrayed Tyr.

Tyr and Fenrir were together all the time. Tyr did not know that they were building the chains, since he was always with Fenrir. Being his protector, the Gods would obviously never have mentioned to Tyr that they wished to bind (and practically torture) his best friend. Besides, Tyr would have stopped the situation. And he would have even alerted Fenrir and let him escape. Being the God of justice, he would have raised his voice for his INNOCENT and BEST FRIEND.

Besides, if Tyr had been part of the creation of the chains, from the first chain Fenrir would have been stuck, why? Simple, because Tyr was the only one who truly knew his strength and destructive potential.

The loss of Tyr's hand.

Tyr was sure that, like all past chains, Fenrir would break them. Tyr trusted Fenrir completely, and that was why he placed his hand on his jaws. He was sure that his best friend would emerge victorious as on all previous occasions. When Tyr saw that his best friend had been totally trapped.... He had to keep his promise, being something they both suffered. If Fenrir had desired revenge or to make him truly suffer, he would have devoured more than the arm of his best friend, Tyr. But there was an oath to keep.

We even know that Tyr did not plan to deceive him, much less sacrifice his hand:

' The Wolf said: 'If ye bind me so that I shall not get free again, then ye will act in such a way that it will be late ere I receive help from you; I am unwilling that this band should be laid upon me. Yet rather than that ye should impugn my courage, let some one of you lay his hand in my mouth, for a pledge that this is done in good faith.' Each of the Æsir looked at his neighbor, and none was willing to part with his hand, until Týr stretched out his right hand and laid it in the Wolf's mouth. But when the Wolf lashed out, the fetter became hardened; and the more he struggled against it, the tighter the band was. Then all laughed except Týr: he lost his hand.

Gylfaginning XXXI-XL

Therefore, as the Eddas say, all the Gods laughed, except Tyr, not only because his arm was going to be devoured, but because his best friend had been betrayed and had been trapped because of him. Tyr is the God of justice, and if he had known that situation he would never have allowed it.

To my mind always comes a scene where the two of them stare at each other, in pain and fear, maybe even with tears in their eyes.... Two best friends who were separated by the ignorance of many.

My personal experience:

As I said, my boyfriend (husband, practically) works with Tyr and Odin. I've had a lot of contact with Tyr because of that, and his presence never generates rancor in me. Because of my traumas and being hypervigilant constantly, I can't trust the Aeisir and Vanir because of everything they did against Loki and his family, but it's a personal thing I have to work on. I can't especially trust Odin though, for banishing children, just because of how they looked. Saying this I don't mean to make you hate the other Gods, far from it, but I'm telling my personal experience and how my Post Traumatic Stress is reflected there.

Tyr is the only Aeisir I have my trust in, along with my aunt Sigyn.

Tyr has accompanied me a lot of times, especially when I go to the gym to train. More than once I have felt Fenrir (he is the one who always accompanies me to practice boxing and weights, and in general, to do physical activity) talk and laugh with Tyr while I train, about things in life that I have never managed to hear clearly, but they get along excellently. Tyr has even helped me a lot in my practices!

One UPG that is practically a SPG, is that my best friend and I asked by pendulum if Tyr gives apples of Idunn to Fenrir in secret. We know that the Gods are kept immortal by them. The answer was a playful "maybe" from Fenrir. Come on, we all know it's true. Even in meditations I have seen them both together in the cave where Fenrir is bound. Tyr is amazing.

Well, that might be all! Remember it's SPG/UPG, so you can avoid negative comments, attacks, and so on. I'm a pretty sensitive person and I ask please for patience, especially in contrary opinions please, and that negative comments usually hurt me a lot! I appreciate the understanding.

Heidi and George were back sitting in front of each other after the tournament. I didn't want to stay while Jörmungandr learns of the truth of Meredith, but she was more than willing to do so, instead.

Nonetheless, Heidi let out a sigh.

"There's... something that I want for you to see, George, and I want you to be the first person of our home to see it, too."

"Hm? Have you not shared it with Melony?"

Heidi shook her head. "Mel was alright with waiting until you saw it first before learning about it. It's just... what you're about to see is extremely important to me... and to you as well, so it would only make sense if you were to see this."

"Is this... related to Meredith in any way, Heidi?"

"...Yes." Heidi nodded. "In fact, it has everything to do with Mama."

"I had a suspicion when Lacey asked me of her. Very well. You have my attention, my student. What is it that you have?"

"..." Heidi let out her palm. "Well, saving you and Leifi wasn't my first foray into going back in time. There was... one other time a few weeks ago when I went back two hundred years in the past to see our home thriving like I've ever seen before."

"Yes... I believe I did hear rumors back then of someone similar to yourself visiting and giving Nergal a good thrashing. A shame that I wasn't in the region at the time."

Heidi nodded. She transformed into her Low-Powered state. She'll need it for what happens next.

"Well, I encountered Friede there, and... she's the one that gave me these abilities. I'm... now able to tune directly into the natural energy of the world and take on the skills, abilities, and powers of an All-Mother. I even have another form that Lacey and I call our High-Power state to combat even greater foes and that's even stronger than this one..."

"And you believe that these two forms will be enough to defeat Arceus, Heidi?"

Heidi nodded. "Yes, but not now. I still need to master both of these skills. This one was pretty easy to get the handle of, but staying in High-Power exhausts both me and Lacey, requiring an intense amount of focus and energy... and if even one of us falters, then we break the form entirely."

"I see, and how is it that you and she intend to train it?"

"Well, Friede gave us another gift to help us with just that, and that's exactly what I wanted to show you today." Heidi closed her palm and opened it again, suddenly revealing a glowing orb of a unique aura.

"...A Soul Dew...?"

"Mama's... Soul Dew." Heidi nodded.

"But I thought that you were weakened by the power of a Soul Dew."

"I am, and that's the case for every Soul Dew, but... Friede modified her for me. I can... tap into her now using my Arceus abilities. I--I even showed mama Lacey for the first time, though we seem to be the only ones to be able to do that for now."

"Meredith..." Just hearing all of this held up so many pent-up emotions. "It is... so good to see that you've returned to us. You and your daughter have always deserved to be together."

"George. I... know that you cared about Mama as much as I did growing up, so I wanted you to be the first person that I try this with."

"Anything, my student. What is it?"

"Aesen was able to tap into the Power of Creation to channel into it and talk to her. It only worked for a single question and response, and I don't think that I can do much better, but I wanted to... do that with you, if that's okay."

"...."

1,700 years. Jörmungandr had long moved on in some ways from her. He gave up on life as a warlord and instead became a researcher and a teacher, guiding others to be the people that Meredith has always seen them as, and as a small resemblance of what he wished Heidi would have been if she never disappeared 1,000 years ago. He's met so many people in this time -- friends, enemies, mentees, students.... He wasn't one to display emotions, but he was happy with his new life, even today while he was in this familiar yet foreign world.

However, he never truly moved on. Meredith was always on the back of his mind. He started this path to honor her legacy, and eventually continued to be the one to help people find the love in themselves as she did. Even romantically, he never was truly over her, or his memory of her. Sure, he's had some relationships in the past, but none of them made such an impact on his life than her. She was truly one of a kind.

And now, 1,700 years later, their child would reunite them in some form.

"...Yes. I... would like that. Thank you... Heidi."

The two dragons were in the living room watching the current Sinnoh Tournament. They were on the couch with Jörmungandr sitting upright and Heidi laying down with her head on his lap. it was a smaller tournament, as the Elite Four and the new Champion were not participating. Still, between the challengers and gym leaders, there was enough excitement to go around. Still, the two were in relative silence for most of it, glued to the screen as the battles were pouring in.

Eventually, however, I decided to come out for a little while.

Lacey took control of the body as she continued to lay her head on Jörmungandr's lap. It was a little more comfortable for her since she wasn't nearly as tall as I was.

"...Lacey." Jörmungandr looked down and started playing with Lacey's hair.

"...Jörmungandr-Sensei." Lacey accepted it. She was far more willing to speak with him this way.

"Was there a buildup of Shadow Energy, or did you wish to watch the tournament as well?"

"Neither." She shifted a little to be more comfortable. "I simply request to spend time with you as well. I have received Heidi's blessing to do so."

I did allow it.

".... I see. Well, you know that I will not deny your request, of course."

The two sat together in silence as he continued to play with her hair, and they watched the tournament. It looked like they were starting to get to an intermission.

That's when it was time for Lacey to speak.

"...I have a question for you, Jörmungandr-Sensei."

"You may ask, and I will answer to the best of my ability."

"...Meredith-Okaasama. You two held a close bond before Heidi was born. Would you care to elaborate on said relationship?"

"...." Jörmungandr sighed. Asking about that was enough for him to remember why he was so inclined to visit in the first place.

He remembered the Lucario girl and the Pawmot boy that entered his home with a message.

Gloam smiled, but also kept her composure as she relayed her message to him. "The message in particular I was requested to deliver was that Miss Meredith thanks you for keeping well with the promise you made to her. She also requested me to give you a palm strike to the head should you not respond, but I'm lucky it never came to that." That wasn't important, but she threw it in there anyways, if only to humor herself. "The last thing she asked was this - to tell you to spend more time with your daughter."

Meredith... despite being gone for so many years, has always found a way to surprise him. Heidi may not know who her father was, and it may be for the best, but thinking of Meredith while knowing that it was him all along... so much of it filled his heart with various, conflicting feelings.

"Meredith and I... were in a happy relationship, yes." Jörmungandr nodded. "I loved her dearly, as much as she loved me. We did not make our love that public, but in the 900 years between the Kalos War and the Weather Wars, we were fond of each other, spending as much time as we could together in between our respective duties. Meredith was loved by all -- by me, by various humans and Pokémon, even by our Arceus -- but while she loved us all in turn, there were but two that she had a special place for... with you being the eventual third."

"...And those two were of Friede and of you?"

Jörmungandr nodded. "It was. We did so much together... we even planned to possibly quit with the ceaseless fighting, leave everyone, and raise a family together. Unfortunately, we never could come to that. During the weather wars, she and I drifted apart as I had to once again take the mantle as Warlord and protect our people. She understood of course and even volunteered to help in all of the ways that she could, but we couldn't risk a conflict of interest and she was spending more time away, so we broke up."

"...and then, Heidi was born."

"100 years later, yes. No one could figure out who your father was at time, but she loved you more than anything in the world, and when she was away, she always thought of you and talked of you. Even early on in your life, she went out of her way to have me promise her that I would take care of you, and that I would protect you."

"...I see."

"...Jörmungandr-Sensei, let us finish watching this tournament. We will pick up from that afterwards." The intermission was starting to end.

"Very well. Let us continue." Jörmungandr went back to playing with Lacey's hair and watching the tournament.
