#I'm still worthy;; Thor Odinson
Text
The party was indeed in full swing and Thor found himself enthralled by it all. Drinking and regaling everyone with tales of his adventures kept several people interested and the prince of Asgard found joy in it. The party itself was splendid, but being under the influence also made the god more frisky, especially since he was single. So when a pair of pretty eyes caught his attention, he made his way over to greet the stranger. “I do hope the party is going wonderfully for you,” he greeted, sipping from his mug with a charming grin.

T. Odinson | Marvel
Muse Name: Thor Odinson
Face Claim: Chris Hemsworth
Fandom: Marvel 
Age: 2,000
Birthday: N/A
Species: God
Sexual Preference: Pansexual
Family: Odin [father; deceased], Frigga [mother; deceased], Loki [adopted brother; believed to be deceased]
Abilities: Thor can summon storms and lightning, even subconsciously. 
History: Thor grew up knowing he was to be King. It was no secret to say the least, and he reveled in the fact that he would one day be the Allfather. But his youth made him reckless, battle-hungry. After an attack on Jotunheim, he was cast out of Asgard, only able to return when he was worthy. The time he spent on earth did a lot in helping him grow, in making him realize it wasn’t about what he wanted, it was about his people, about the people he had promised to protect. When it came time to face his brother, he did so with a heavy heart.And he did it over and over, because he loved his brother dearly. He couldn’t bring himself to truly, unconditionally hate Loki, and he couldn’t bear the idea of losing Loki even though the trickster had faked his death twice.Searching for their father led them to meet their sister, and they were cast into one of the biggest wars they had to face, getting back to save Asgard and their people. Thor went through a lot to get back, and when the time came, they ignited Ragnarok, and while the land that was Asgard was destroyed, Thor had learned that the spirit of Asgard - its people - were what kept it alive.

@inkdreamt​​ gets a starter with Thor
Tumblr media
“Don’t tell me you tried to lift Mjolnir again?” Thor asked as he spotted the other. Next to her his hammer, her pretending to just stay beside it. “I told you, the day you prove yourself worthy, Mjolnir will be all yours. Until then-” with ease he lifted up the hammer “-it’s me and I’m the worthy one.”

Avengers: Endgame from the Point of View of Someone with Anxiety
It is no doubt that Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame is the biggest movie event in history, both in the context of our universe and the MCU. However, when the movie was released, it didn’t see the overwhelmingly positive reactions expected of such as film. One glaring “problem” that a lot of people had with the movie was the arc given to Thor (Chris Hemsworth). In the movie, he brutally and coldly decapitates Thanos (Josh Brolin) before realizing what he had done. After realizing that it didn’t matter, since his friends were still dead, he fell into a depressive funk, developing depression, anxiety, and PTSD. He develops really unhealthy coping mechanisms until he gets a chance to reverse Thanos’ villainous actions, in which he learns that even with his serious mental illnesses, he is still worthy to wield Mjolnir and fight Thanos as a hero. A lot of people were upset by this due to several arguments which I hope to debunk in the following paragraph.
The first anti-Thor argument is that since Thor is a G-d from another realm, he shouldn’t be susceptible to these feelings. This can easily be disproved since it has been shown throughout the MCU that Thor experiences human emotions, it is easy to conclude that those feelings can become extreme enough to become mental illness, since any being with human emotions, even non-sentient ones such as cats (I know from experience) can develop depression. Furthermore, the MCU in Thor: Ragnarok explicitly explains that, unlike the comics, Thor is not a G-d, but rather an alien, and Asgard is not another realm, but rather a planet. The second glaring argument is that Thor shouldn’t be allowed to get that fat or drunk, he’s supposed to be able to keep it together. A third, but related, argument, is that Thor did not get a workout and sobering up montage before fighting Thanos in the Battle of Earth, or even before the Time Heist. However, I strongly urge people who make this argument to rewatch the movie from the perspective of a person with anxiety, such as myself. I can assure you that mental illness does not look like Chris Hemsworth being a little sad, but much more like Thor’s actions in Endgame. Moments such as Thor realizing that he is still worthy to wield Mjolnir, while it confuses his friend, Rocket (Bradley Cooper),  are beyond empowering for people with the mental illnesses portrayed in the film through Thor. Seeing that even Thor Odinson, one of the strongest Avengers, can develop these poor coping mechanisms, and that it doesn’t affect the fundamental goodness of the person (as shown through the “I’m still worthy” scene), and that he can still challenge Thanos, the biggest threat in MCU to date, gives people with these illnesses a sense of hope through their early on ability to relate to him, showing people that they are still them, even if they have a crippling mental illness. And as a person with severe anxiety, this means a lot to me, and the extreme glee that I felt at seeing these things happen shows that an otherwise not-as-good movie handled Thor’s mental illness very well.

.
Quiet.
It had been a quiet morning. Nothing to disturb the tranquil before the sun-rays bathed your home a cheery yellow, a contrast to your gloomy, wallowing self.
Someone had been gone for months, literally to a different planet and left you with lingering memories of the times you’d spent together.
The giant stuffed bear that lay in your bed, the one he had won for you at a fair. It brought a giggle to your lips every time you saw it, memories of a determined Thor trying his best to win at a silly Midgardian game to prove himself worthy of your love on your second date.
As you wandered into the kitchen, the wobbly breakfast table made your cheeks go warm as your mind flooded with how it had come to be this way in the first place.
The last time Thor had been back here, at the crack to dawn to rouse you from your sleep with his bristly kisses. The desperate touches continued as he carried you out, discarding your clothes as you went before placing you on the breakfast table in your kitchen.
Tracing the expanse of your throat with his tongue, he had made his way between your legs.
Circling his tongue over your bundle of nerves while calloused hands held your legs apart, leaving you writhing and wanting for more as breathy moans had filled the silence of your house.
"You know that this counts as half an apology right?" you had teased.
"I've merely begun, my dove. I doubt I'd hear you complain once I'm done."
Wasn't long before you were bent over the table with his firm grip pushing your down while holding your hips tight with his other as he fucked you.
The wood dug into your skin as the force of his thrusts pushed you forward, all you could do was grip the edge and moan with abandon as he brought you pleasure while chasing his own.
His cock speared through your tight walls, grazing against all the right spots as it slid out, reaching the hilt as it plunged back in.
Your cries echoed off the walls as his warm cum painted your walls white, a deep grunt sounding from his chest as he kept pushing his cum inside, whispering how much he had missed you.
A leg of the table snapped and gave way by the time you were finished, the poor pot of flowers crashing to the floor leaving you to laugh and giggle at your antics. It was fixed eventually but it wobbled still.
Putting on a pot of coffee for yourself, you strolled back out on the balcony. The morning breeze caressed your skin as you shut your eyes and sighed.
Thunder echoed in the skies, causing your eyes to open as you watched deep grey clouds gather right above.
A grin broke on your face as the familiar crackle and flash of electricity lightened up your sour mood in an instant.

Thor: Love and Thunder is based on Jason Aaron's Mighty Thor, and some people might like to read the comics a movie is inspired by before watching it, so I read through every single comic Jane Foster has been in since Thor: God of Thunder (2012) to create this reading list. Those are my personal recommendations and this is by no means an ultimate guide! Under the cut is the written list + some extra comments.
This list is accurate as of September 14 2021.
Essential reading is bolded, I considered essential the books where Jane's the main character, important character moments, and events that directly affected the main books. I did my best to order these chronologically!
Thor: God of Thunder (2012) #12, #24: Jason Aaron's first Thor book!
Thor (2014)
Avengers: Ultron Forever, New Avengers: Ultron Forever, Uncanny Avengers: Ultron Forever
Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (2015) #7-8
Secret Wars
Thors
Mighty Thor (2016) #1-7
Unbelievable Gwenpool #2: The art style on this one is just delightful.
All-New, All-Different Avengers #1-12: I'm not too fond of this book to be honest, I don't like how she's portrayed here, but it certainly happened.
Vote Loki
Mighty Thor (2016) #8-702: Unfortunately there are not actually 700+ issues of this comic, they just changed how they numbered them at some point.
Civil War II #1-3: Honestly just skip all the Civil War II stuff, especially if you're coming from the movies, I only included it in the list cause it affects ANAD Avengers.
All-New, All-Different Avengers #15: Jane is the focus of this issue, it's my favorite from ANAD Avengers.
Civil War II #4-6
Avengers (2016) #1-8
The Unworthy Thor #4: This book, also by Jason Aaron, happens at the same time as Mighty Thor and while it affects that story, Jane is only in this issue and only in a couple pages.
Doctor Strange (2015) #17, #18
Secret Empire #0
Avengers (2016) #9: This is another Jane-focused issue and it's fantastic, I think it's a really key character moment.
Secret Empire #9, #10
Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor
Avengers (2016) #11, #672-674
Champions (2016) #13-15
Doctor Strange (2015) #381
Avengers (2016) #675-690
Mighty Thor (2016) #703-706
Mighty Thor: At the Gates of Valhalla
Thor (2018) #1, #8, #9, #11: Odinson takes back the mantle of Thor and Jane becomes a secondary character, however there are still some cool character moments.
War of the Realms
Thor (2018) #14-15
War of the Realms Omega
Thor (2018) #16
Valkyrie: Jane Foster
King Thor #4
Incoming!
Thor (2020) #10-13

REQUEST: Sorta war horse x loki AU,,, Loki is a captain in the asgardian army ( or whatever ) and the reader is a civilian that Loki takes an interest in and she’s flustered by the attention but her close friends push and encourage the relationship
Author's note: so uhhh I kind of made Loki into a Disney prince...?
Tumblr media
Imagine being just a simple civilian who, somehow, catches the eye of a royal general - prince Loki. Although the attention flusters you at first, people around you convince you to try your luck.
"Another victory," you thought to yourself as the parade marched through the city. People gathered around the small army to welcome them home, throw flowers at them and see their families as soon as they could. You didn't know anyone in the Asgardian military but you definitely enjoyed the solemnity of the march-past: the colours, the joy, the hope.
There was, however, another piece of personal agenda you were slightly embarrassed to admit: General Prince Loki Odinson. You weren't the only one attending the parade to sneak a glance at him, many young and older women did so. Ever since he was promoted to the rank of a general, he became more popular than his older brother Thor, who held more power in the court but that power was limited only to the court. Prince Loki became the character associated with keeping peace in the realm and outside of it: a purpose not only glorious but also noble.
Prince Loki had a proud smile on his face. He was slowly riding on his white steed through the city as people were throwing flowers and dried grains under the horse's hooves. The cape of his armor flowed gently on the warm summer breeze. Loki looked like someone who doesn't only win but also never loses.
Being hopeful and a tad bit naive, you held a bouquet of wildflowers you were collecting the entire morning. When the prince came closer to you, you held out the neatly prepared bunch, hoping that the prince will take it.
Loki's eyes met yours as he gently took the flowers from your shaking hands. His face became brighter or that's just what you were telling yourself. The way he smiled at you was enough to tell how grateful he was for the gift of appreciation.
"My lady," he bowed gently towards you and continued riding through the city, bouquet still in his hand.
Tumblr media
I"You could at least try, (Y/N)" your friend spoke to you. The sun had already set but the city was still celebrating the fresh victory. Around you the air was filled with lively music played by a half-drunk band. The beautiful and well-known melodies were muffled by laughter as well as the sound of people dancing. With each, even tiniest, blow of night breeze you could smell various dishes, both sweet and savory, all prepared for the general public to enjoy on such an exciting night. It was absolutely marvelous.
"I'm not sure, Astrid," you shook your head resignedly. "He's a prince and a general. Those like me are grateful to shine his shoes."
"Look, (Y/N)," she placed her hand on top of yours. "You were the only person he actually acknowledged."
"Astrid, do I look like a prince-worthy woman to you? I have nothing to offer him!"
"Dear," she looked into your eyes. "You're emperor-worthy, no, throne-worthy. Don't forget that. Now go and try talking to him. Worst case scenario he will thank you for the flowers and go away."
You let out a sigh.
"Alright, Astrid, I'm going," you said. "What's the worst thing that can happen, right? It's not like he will hit me or humiliate me, right?" Those words were more of reassurance towards yourself than actual questions targeted at your friend.
You got up from the table you were sitting at and made your way to the center of the market where people danced to whatever the band was currently playing. Trying your best to not look as stressed and awkward, you pretended to be simply strolling by and casually searching for the dark-haired prince.
"My lady?" a voice behind you caught your attention.
You turned around only for your eyes to find the devil himself. Loki's keen eyes stared at you in an oddly gentle and affectionate matter. His thin lips curved into a polite smile. The light armor he was wearing was mostly green with gold elements. The yellowish light of the torches scattered around the area reflected off of the gold plates beautifully.
"May I have this dance?" he asked as he offered his hand to you. He didn't have his gloves on, showing the best manners a man could present. Although the thought of holding his hand was beyond enticing, you couldn't help but worry, anxiety clouding your mind once again.
"I am afraid my company might be underwhelming for you, Your Royal Highness, especially on such a wonderful night," you answered as you gently placed your hand into his. Loki's fingers softly wrapped around your hand, holding it more tenderly than would be expected of a seasoned general.
"I could not think of a more desirable company but that of a delightful lady with flowers nearly as graceful as her." After those smooth words, he gently kissed the back of your hand, only reddening the blush on your cheeks.
You were dancing with a prince completely immersed in your beauty and all it took was a bunch of wildflowers.

Smile - Thor Odinson x reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
a/n - hey lovely people!! this is for this lovely request by @cotton-candy-clouds-26​ , thank you!! i just couldn’t bring myself to write Steve cheating, i love him and i just don’t think he’d do that, but i hope it’s okay. enjoy!<3
Summary: you and Steve break up and it’s rough, but luckily there’s someone out there that helps you get over it. you could say he’s worthy of your affections (i had to hehe)
Word Count: 3k
Warnings: Some curse words and a little angst
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Steve?" you called out, "you ready to go?"
"Just a couple seconds!" he replied, and you sat down on the couch, scrolling on your phone while you waited for him.
It was your six months anniversary, and you were getting ready to go to dinner with Steve. He's been acting a little weird the past few days, and it was starting to raise your suspicion.
Maybe he's getting me a surprise, you tried to shrug your worry off. You knew Steve wasn't that good at keeping secrets, especially from you, and you'd try and get it out of him tonight.
"Ready t-" you began to ask, but stopped once you saw he was wearing a t-shirt and jeans. "Stevie, you know I love your t-shirts," you said, appreciatively eying the bulge on his muscles revealed by the sort, tight sleeves, "but I was under the impression we're going to a fancy restaurant tonight. You know, the kind that won't appreciate anyone, including Captain America, coming in a t-shirt and jeans," you smirked.
"I'm not going," he sighed, sitting down next to you.
"You're not goi- is everything alright? Are you feeling unwell? I mean, I didn't even know you could get ill, but-"
"I'm not sick," he shook his head, "I just… I thought I could give you this one nice night, but I can't."
"What do you mean you can't? Steve, what's going on? Are they calling you on a mission or something?"
"No, no mission. Not today anyway." He took a deep breath before he continued. "I think we should break up."
Your mouth agape, it took you a couple of seconds to register what he just said. You closed your mouth and swallowed. "What?" you asked, your voice nearly a whisper.
"I'm sorry," he said, averting his eyes to the floor, "I just… I don't think I feel the same way about you anymore, and I don't wanna hold you back or anything. I thought the right thing to do was to treat you to a nice dinner before I…" he trailed off, his eyes fixed ahead of him, away from you, "Anyways, I couldn't do it. I didn't want to lie to you, or lead you on. You deserve better than that," his gaze finally turned to you, waiting for your response.
You didn't know what to say. You knew he was acting weird, but you'd have never seen this coming. "So this is it?" you asked disbelievingly. "This is how we end?"
"Look, I'm so-"
"Sorry, yeah, I know." You took a deep breath, willing your tears away. "I think I'll just go home," you got up, getting your stuff.
"Wait, I didn't cancel the reservation. If you wanna go yourself you— can," he called after you, the last word after you'd slammed the door behind you.
Outside of Steve's room, you let out a shuddering breath. He was living in the Avengers compound, so you had to keep yourself together until you got out of here, in case any of them saw you. You started getting outside, but your distracted state of mind probably led you to take a wrong turn in one of the corridors, because now you had no idea where you are.
"Shit," you mumbled under your breath before turning to look around you. You heard what you thought was the noise of a TV from behind one of the doors, and you knocked on it tentatively. You heard some shuffling and then the door opened to reveal none other than Thor. You know, God of Thunder Thor. God of Thunder Thor that was standing in front of you right now, waiting for you to say something because you were the one that knocked on his door.
You willed your brain to go back to functioning. "Um, hi," you said hesitantly, "I was just… I was on my way out of the compound and I got lost. Could you, um, point me in the right direction?"
"Of course," his voice was deep, you could almost feel it rumbling around you when he spoke. "Who are you looking for?"
"Oh, just the exit," you shrugged.
"Alright. I apologized, I just assumed, from the way you're dressed…"
"No, it's alright. I was supposed to go to this fancy restaurant for dinner, but then… anyways, I wouldn't want to go alone," you sighed.
"Well, in that case, would you like me to accompany you? I wouldn't mind dining with a lovely lady such as yourself," he smiled.
"Oh," you blinked in surprise. You weren't really planning on it, but you were actually kinda hungry. And hey, eating in a fancy restaurant with Thor does sound a little nicer than eating at home and wallowing in self-pity. The wallowing could wait. "I mean, if you'd like to," you smiled back at him, "but you'd have to put on a suit, something fancy."
"Oh, I'm sure I have one of those," he said, leaving the door open and heading back inside. "Come in," he said, loud enough for you to hear it. You guessed he headed into the bathroom to change, since when you got in all you saw was the room itself. It was simple, not a lot of personal touches. Makes sense since he's probably not here most of the time, but in Asgard, which would also explain why you hadn't met him yet.
"How's that?" he asked, getting out of the bathroom. The suit was slightly tight on his tall, broad frame, but it was more than okay with you.
"Perfect," you smiled, "we'll blend right in."
You drove the two of you to the restaurant, spending the time making small talk about 'Midgard habits', as Thor called them, or, as you called them, social norms.
When you got there, the hostess smiled at you and asked for the name of your reservation. By that point you had nearly forgotten it, but your shoulders sagged as you mumbled "Steve Rogers."
"I'll let you right in," she smiled and led you to your table.
"Wait, so Steve was going to come with you?" Thor asked once you got to the table. "Are you his girlfriend I've heard so much about from Tony?"
"I'm… not his girlfriend anymore," you said, averting your eyes to the table, playing with the napkin.
"Oh."
"He broke up with me today," you said, your voice breaking before you could get your emotions under control.
"My apologies," he offered, and put his hand over yours, "I know how unpleasant it is to be… broken up with."
"Yeah? Who'd ever dump Thor?" you chuckled, raising your gaze to meet him.
"Quite a few people over the years," he smiled, lighthearted.
"Well, I'm sorry," you squeezed his hand in yours.
When you were waiting for the main course, you had an idea. "Hey, you can't get drunk, right?"
"Not on your Midgardian version of booze, no. Why?"
"Perfect. Hey!" you signaled for a waitress to come over, ignoring Thor's questioning look, "Can we get a bottle of the most alcoholic wine you got here?" you smiled.
If the waitress thought the request was weird, she didn't show it. She just told you how much it costs, which nearly made you give it up but you really needed this tonight.
When you were done ordering it and the waitress went to bring it, you turned to Thor. "I know we just met each other, and this probably isn't the best first impression, but please can you just call me a cab at the end of dinner? Because I'm kinda planning to get drunk."
He chuckled, again making you experience the illusion that you could feel the sound between you. "Of course. If that would help."
"That would help a ton, thank you," you grinned at him, just as the waitress came back with your wine and the first course.
A whole bottle of wine consumed exclusively by you and a few dishes later, you knew it was time to go home. You paid the bill, trying not to freak out at how expansive it was. Thor wanted to pay too, but you assured him that it was fine, and it was you that dragged him out here anyway.
While you were standing outside waiting for a cab you could hail, you shivered a little in the cold.
Steve always gave you his jacket when you got cold.
Maybe it was the drinks, the late hour or just plain old breakup sadness, you felt tears come to your eyes, unable to stop them from flowing out.
You started sniffling and Thor noticed, his head immediately turning to look at you. "What's wrong?"
"He left me, Thor," you cried, "I thought everything was fine and he dumped me. And he was nice about it, so I can't even be mad and blame him, and that just means that," you barely contained your sobs, "it means I'm not enough. Everyone leaves me because I'm never enough." You buried your face in his bicep, too wound up in your misery to even notice how nice it was.
"Now, now," his other hand lifted to stroke your hair. It was a little awkward, but in your inebriated state you couldn't care less. "You're more than enough. I met you today and even I know you're wonderful."
You lifted your head to meet his eyes. Sniffling once again, you tried to stop crying. "Thank you," you said once you felt you gained enough composure. "I'm sorry I sprung all of this on you. I'll get a cab, go sleep it off," you said, awkwardness now prominent. God, you just made a fool of yourself in front of… a god. A literal god. Fuck.
"Where do you live?" he asked, seemingly unbothered. You gave him your address. "Well, I believe it's not that far. Do you need to wait for a cab or can you walk home?"
"I mean, I could walk, it's just that New York City at night isn't the safest place for a girl to walk alone," you smiled awkwardly.
"Oh, yes," he frowned, "I suppose you're correct. I could walk you home, if you'd like?"
You looked around. No cabs in sight. "Actually, yeah. That'd be cool."
The chilly night air sobered you up a bit. Once you got to your building, you bid Thor goodbye, thanking him again, before going up to your apartment and stumbling tiredly onto your bed, where you fell into a dreamless sleep.
The next morning, you woke up still wearing yesterday's dress and with a slight headache, groaning as you got yourself out of bed to shower, change and drink some water, get an aspirin.
Once you had done all that, you checked your phone for any messages. You weren't supposed to come into work today, so you weren't expecting anything, but just to make sure. Surprisingly enough, there was a text from a number you hadn't recognized.
It said it was Thor and he asked how are you, but there was no way that was true, right? I mean, you didn't think Thor even had a phone, let alone your number. On the other hand, you couldn't think of anyone else who'd know enough to text you that.
Skeptical, you texted back that you were fine, not too far from the truth but still kind of far, and were planning to spend the day watching movies and eating ice cream, which was the truth.
How'd you get my number? You texted again before he could answer.
Jarvis had it, he texted back. He's quite useful. I do wonder why he won't leave his room.
You laughed. Either this was actually Thor, or it was someone really, really good. Before you could think up a reply, you saw the three little dots signifying he was typing again.
Would you perhaps want some company while you watch these movies?
You gasped out loud even though there was no one there to hear it. Was Thor really asking to come over and watch movies? With you? It was hard to believe. Maybe it is someone else after all.
You texted him he should come over if he wanted to. Thor knew your address, if it was really him, he'd come over. If it was some crazy stalker, you just wouldn't let him in and continue in your plans of bawling in front of some sappy movies. If it was actually Thor… well, you'd have to cry in front of him, you guess.
You already started on your ice cream and started The Notebook, figuring it was a good way to start your wallowing fest, and you were starting to get really into it when you heard a knock on the door. You moved as quietly as you could towards the door, looking through the peephole. To your momentary relief, it was Thor and not some stalker. Why momentary? Because holy fucking shit Thor was standing at your day and you were in your pajamas.
"Just a sec!" you called out. You figured you didn't have time to change, but you at least tried to get your hair in some sort of order before you opened the door, hiding your PJs clad body with it.
"Hi," you smiled bashfully once you closed the door behind him.
"Hello," he said, smiling. "Ah, I see you've already started. What movie is that?"
"Well, it's called The Notebook. Do you know it?"
He replied that no, he didn't, and you explained the plot briefly to him as you sat down, wrapping yourself back up in a fuzzy blanket before taking your ice cream back.
"Oh, where are my manners, would you like some?" you gestured the ice cream towards him.
"Yes, sure!" he nodded, and you were glad he at least knew what ice cream was. If someone hadn't bothered to introduce him that would just be cruel.
You went to get the ice cream, the blanket dragging behind you like a cape, and you returned with another tub of ice cream and a spoon, bringing them to him before sitting back down and starting the movie.
You two didn't speak much throughout the movie. When it got to the really sad parts you started crying silently, but by the ending you were just fully sobbing, and, as it seemed, so was he.
"That was so… sad," he said, "is this the entertainment Midgardians always enjoy?"
"Not always," you said, stopping to blow your nose, "we have happy things too. It's just, I got dumped last night, so I'd like the chance to cry a little, you know?"
"That's fair. And it was very beautiful. They loved each other."
"They did," you said, your eyes filling with tears again.
"What's next?"
You watched some more sad movies, and then introduced Thor to the wonderful world of takeout food while you changed to some rom com, a little more cheerful. He laughed the whole way through, and the movie wasn't even that funny, but you giggled along as well, unable not to join his roaring laughter.
You ended up falling asleep on the couch in the evening, exhausted, mostly emotionally. The next morning when you woke up he was gone, but he did text you that if you needed anything you could tell him.
Over time, you and Thor started hanging out some more. Mostly at your place or outside, since you really didn't want to risk running into Steve.
It took you time, getting over Steve. Time and tears.  And really, Thor being there helped. A lot. He was a rock, a shoulder to cry on.
A broad, muscular shoulder to ugly cry on.
At first, the thought of starting something with Thor didn't even cross your mind. Sure, he was sweet, but it was platonic, and you were busy getting over your breakup anyway.
But then, you realized it became something… more. To you at least. Because despite the tears, he didn't leave. Never wanted to.
Long story short, when Thor invited you to go to dinner one night, a few months after you met each other, you tried really hard not to think of it as a date. A friend-date, if anything.
"How's it going?" you asked, sitting down in front of him in the small diner.
"Good," he smiled at you, "You?"
"Great," you smiled back.
"So, I have some news," he started, continued once you gave him an encouraging nod, "I have to go back to Asgard in a week or two."
"Oh," you said. It made sense, Thor being on earth as long as he already has been should've raised your curiosity, but you didn't really want to think about it until this moment. "I guess you're happy to go home."
"I am," he hummed, "But… there was something I wanted to ask you before I leave. And be honest. Would you like… well, would you give me the opportunity to court you?"
You sat in stunned silence for a few moments. "Like, you're asking me to date you?" you said incredulously.
"I am," he chuckled nervously, "But you don't have to- I know you might not want to because of Steve and-"
"I haven't thought of Steve for a really long time," you cut him off with a smile, "mostly thanks to you. You make me really happy, and I would love to let you court me," you giggled.
"Really?" he asked, awestruck.
"Really," you smiled, leaning across the table, intending to press a kiss to his cheek. At the last moment he turned, making you plant your lips on his in a soft kiss.
You pulled away smiling, and so was he. He took your hand in his from across the table, and you continued to eat your food like you two usually do. Well, almost. Now there were timid exchanges of looks, gently hand squeezes.
And a breathtaking goodnight kiss.
But it was so natural, so normal, you couldn't bring yourself to admit the absurdity of him being a literal god and you being… just a human.
You spent the week he had left together, making the best of it.
In the future, you'd visit his home, he'd visit yours. And he'll always make sure to remind you you're not just a human, you are, in fact, his favorite one.
It never failed to make you smile.

When requests are open!! Jealous peter/thor hc's? Maybe nsfw too if you're up to it :)) your probably my far my favorite yandere/marvel author on this platform, and I'm always looking forward to what you post!!
Tumblr media
[Warning: Mentions of Violence, Murders, Slight NSFW in places, dark but sweet.]
Peter Parker-
Peter is a sweet boy so if he is jealous he won’t lash out, he will just get pouty and sad wanting your attention.
Please give him your undivided attention, he loves you more than anyone else in the world.
That’s not to say that the person hitting on you or flirting with you would be safe that night when you went to sleep.
Several unsolved murders might just stack up in the city, with none of them seeming connected in anyway.
Making sure that none of the evidence would lead them back to you, not wanting you involved.
Or for you to find out what he had been doing to all the people who tried to steal you from him, at least that is his reasoning.
If someone doesn’t get the message that you are taken, he will make sure to be super handsy with you, touching you lovingly anywhere you would let him.
Don’t expect to go anywhere without Peter with you, it’s dangerous out there and you need Spider-Man to keep you safe from harm.
More than willing to skip out on patrol to go with you somewhere you needed or wanted to go.
Whenever you felt bad that you were keeping him from his duties he would kiss your forehead reassuringly, letting you know that it was worth it to keep you in one piece.
Don’t get mad at him if he says something rude to the person flirting with you, he just has your best interests at heart.
No one could ever treat you how you deserved like Peter does, and always will.
Even if these little instances don’t phase you because you aren’t interested, he does however take them all too seriously.
One night you came home telling him about how your co-worker hit on you and asked you out.
Of course you explained how you denied them telling them that you had a boyfriend, but the damage was already done.
Feeling self conscious Peter decided that he was going to send a message, one of who you belonged to.
Passionately starting to kiss you and love on you, barely giving you time to take a breath in.
Picking you up and leading you to the bedroom where he will proceed to worship you from top to bottom.
Leaving love marks and bites scattered along your flesh, a sign to the world of how much he loved you.
Once you are happy and sleeping in his arms he will finally relax a little, allowing himself to be content in the knowledge that you are still his.
Reassuring him a lot will help ease his anxieties, after all he has lost most good things in his life, he couldn’t bear losing you too.
Look past his overbearing tendencies, he doesn’t mean to be as intense as he is.
Instead see it as his love language, his way of expressing his feelings towards you… his way of loving you.
Tumblr media
Thor Odinson-
Thor is a giant teddy bear most of the time, always showing affection towards you and never anything but.
However should someone try to approach you in a flirtatious manner, he will let loose any of the anger he holds below the surface.
Not only would his facial expression and hulking figure intimidate most anyone away from you, but the shift of his eyes glowing blue added a whole other level of terror.
Should you ask him to let it go he would, at least out loud that is, his mind would shift to planning revenge instead.
People dying from lightning strikes were at an all time high and no one could understand what was happening.
Even you didn’t connect the dots between your loving God, and the rise in horrific deaths due to natural causes.
Someone taking flirting way too far and makes you uncomfortable?
Guess who is getting tortured that night, basically electrocuting them from the inside out with a single touch.
Leaving their charred remains scattered across the ground, pieces breaking off and floating into the air.
The haze clearing, leaving only glimpses of the torture that had been endured there.
Thor is only doing this because he is protecting you, and the love that you share together.
A love he had to fight so hard to win, and he wasn’t used to losing.
So he would instead remove any chance of that happening, you can’t lose if there are no other competitors.
Then there was one guy at your work that would constantly hit on you no matter how often you asked him to stop.
Even having the balls to do so right in front of Thor, which unknowingly sentenced himself to a death sentence.
Showing up at the guys house unannounced of course, bursting in the door with ease, splintering it with his sheer brute strength alone.
Cornering the man before throwing him onto the ground harshly, standing over him at first placing his foot on the man’s chest.
“You thought you could infringe upon my relationship with my beloved? Look’s like you just aren’t worthy, tough man.”
Lifting his giant foot off the figure, replacing it with Mjolnir instead, letting its full weight press down upon his torso.
Slowly after struggling there was nothing the man could do but gasp for air, unable to take in any oxygen as the hammer’s weight compressed his lungs down as he exhaled.
Watching on in fascination as the perpetrator took his last fleeting breaths, eyes closing shut after a few more moments.
Taking his trusted weapon off the body he shook his head before leaving as quickly as he came.
Making it home to your sleeping form, in his bed waiting for him to join you.
Removing his clothing he slipped in next to you, chuckling as you instinctively curled into the warmth of his skin.
Reveling in how lucky he was to truly have you, and that he was in a position to keep you with him.
No one could ever step in the way of the love you both shared, he would bet his own life on it.
[Thank you so much for the idea, and for your kind words darling! I truly appreciate you and I hope this was what you were wanting!

Hi! Congrats on 1.8k! Can I request one of the Fandom Life, please, for Marvel? My pronouns are He/Him. I have no gender preference. I experience a great depth of feelings, but as an introvert, I largely process these emotions internally. I enjoy all things D&D & Cthulu. I'm a Ravenclaw. I am loyal to a fault but overly idealistic. When I feel something is threatening me, I will react by assessing information & stringing everything together to eliminate the threat before it gets me by all means.
Can I get Parent for the additional option please?
Fandom Life requests are closed
Sibling: Peter Parker
Best Friend: Scott Lang
Significant Other: Natasha Romanoff
Parent: Thor Odinson
Tumblr media
Either he gets into something nerdy and shares it with you or you get into something nerdy and share it with him, that’s how it’s always been. Before he met Ned and before he befriended MJ all your D&D campaigns were just the two of you. Each of you taking turns being a DM that way you each had experience with it. You’re the first person that he turns to he becomes Spider-Man and the only person he really trusts with all his secrets. There’s an endless supply of inside jokes that have come about from growing up together and he’s the easiest person to talk to about your emotions because you know he’s going to understand.
Tumblr media
Scott is king of the dorks if we’re being completely honest. He bombards everyone with a genuine kindness that takes some time to get used to. As soon as you do the two of you are fast friends, him being the willing ear you turn to when you need to rant about something nerdy or when you’re just bored and desire some conversation. While he’s not the only one who is insistent on getting you to open up emotionally to him when he can tell you’re holding back he is the one who will bother you non-stop about it through humor and just about any way he can. The two of you are often put together in teams because the two of you get along so well and Scott complains that no one else laughs at his jokes.
Tumblr media
You and Nat were often partnered together on missions which is really what led to your dating. Always being together meant learning about one another, from the simple things like favorite colors to telling one another things you’d long kept secret. Feelings were easy to come by for the both of you and Nat has a heavy amount of admiration for you which she doesn’t hesitate to make it known to you. Analyzing your threats and figuring out ways to eliminate them, something she deeply loves, among many other things. She finally feels safe when she’s with you and this is the rare time when she’ll let her guard down.
Tumblr media
Thor has learned from when you were young that you’re not one to open up about your emotions. He encourages it but will never pressure you, making it known that he’ll be there whenever you’d like to speak. Growing up he always made certain you understood what it meant to be a future leader of Asgard yet never pressuring you into accepting that role. You may be meant to inherit the throne technically yet he still sees an opportunity for you to turn away the throne if you wish. Neither of you have ever really attempted for you to control Mjolinor although he’s certain that if you called the hammer you would be found worthy. Thor’s always been protective of you although as you’ve grown he’s finally begun to accept that you’re able to protect yourself (still he’s going to worry and more often than not he’s going to step in to make sure you’re not hurt).

"I'm tired of pretending!" For Thorki please!
(Read on AO3)
Thor stepped out of his hiding place in the shadows of the hangar bay. "I wondered if you were going to leave without telling me."
Loki jerked at the sound of his voice, badly startled, and his stance went into the old defensive posture that Thor knew so well, but the one thing he did not look was guilty. "It would have been easier," he said, and tightened his grip on the strap of the bag slung over his shoulder. "Everyone's used to me leaving. They all expect me to go off on my own at a moment's notice, and not mention it to anyone."
"And not come back."
The newly-crowned king of Asgard threw the accusation into the air between them like a challenge. But if Loki took it as such, he did not rise to the bait. He simply looked at his brother with the shuttered expression that hid so much. "Yes."
"Without even so much as a goodbye?"
"Yes."
"But why?"
"Because I'm tired of pretending!" Loki snapped. "I'm tired of being something I'm not, especially to these people. And to you. Not an Odinson, not a prince of Asgard, never worthy of praise or remark..." He cut Thor off when he would have protested. "Of not being your brother."
"You are my brother," Thor replied, closing the space between them from several feet to a few inches. "You have always been my brother." He reached for Loki and drew him close, and kissed him, trying to pour every ounce of emotion and love into the caress.
Gently, inexorably, Loki pushed him away. "Not always," he said, biting off the words like bad-tasting rations. "Not in your bed."
Thor felt something cold overtake him.
"I don't regret any of that. None of it. It's one of the few things we still have that never felt tainted by everything I've done." Loki's entire being radiated tension and anguish, even Thor could see that, but his voice was calm. "But you can't have one without the other. I can't be your lover and not be your brother. You understood that, once."
"So you're just... leaving?"
"Yes." Loki tossed his bag into the Statesman's small scout craft. "Until you figure out what the fuck you want from me. When that happens, brother, come find me."

Be My Only Love || legendssoldierscientists
Thor didn’t know where he could find Tony. He’d been gone for almosta month to check on the New Asgard and the civilians therein. After speaking with Valkyrie and moving around to check if he was needed for any repairs, he’d headed back to Tony with some gifts. “Anthony?” he asked as he made his way around the tower.  @legendssoldierscientists

Thor was quiet as he stood, a glass of brandy in one hand as he watched the sky. He hoped his brother was among those who could enter Valhalla, hoped he was reunited with their mother. He mourned those they had lost, missed seeing the smile curve Natasha’s lips, and he missed Tony’s sass. Lifting his hand, he put the glass to his lips, taking a long sip as he sighed.

@redemptivexheroics​ liked for a starter with Thor
Tumblr media
“I am not doing the whole God thing at the moment.” Thor spoke as he tried to avoid the eyes of the other. He got a little out of shape, his hair and beard longer than ever. He looked terrible. “Why are you even here anyway? Trying to convince me to come back? Nah, I’m fine here. Never been better.”

Mighty Thor in Thor: Love and Thunder rant
Seeing Natalie Portman returning to reprise her role as Jane Foster, nevertheless wielding Mjolnir, finally getting the treatment this character deserves, was surreal to say the least. I had just started reading Lords of Midgard, the 8th issue of Mighty Thor (2015 - 2018), and had fallen in love already. But I didn't suspect at all that Taika Waititi would pull this card in Thor: Love and Thunder, considering Jane was barely mentioned in Ragnarok. The news about my favorite actress portraying one of my favorite characters coming out of the blue - you can imagine the excitement. Alas, I quickly remembered what the fandom thought of that comic (at least on tumblr) and imagined it now growing tenfold, cuz not everyone in the MCU fandom reads comics but pretty much everyone wants to watch another Thor movie. And yes, many fans weren't ready for this step, still recovering from Sam Wilson getting the shield in Endgame. Which is completely fine. We're not obligated to like everything Marvel throws in our faces, we're allowed to criticize and express our opinion on the internet or wherever. What is not okay is mindlessly hating, and even worse - using false facts to support said opinion.
I have seen some people using the argument that it is one of Marvel's worst selling comics. Which has already been proven wrong by multiple sites, including Comichron, just Google it, as I did myself. I read multiple posts, ones saying how good Jane is doing as Thor in sales, others disproving this, so I checked for myself the numbers at the site mentioned above month by month to be sure. The comic truly had its downfalls as the story progressed but in my opinion it's normal for the 1st issue to have more sales than the 21st. If we compare it to Unworthy Thor, which started running a bit later and followed the now unworthy Odinson, the data shows the latter had more sales. But then again, while Might Thor was at its 17th issue, Unworthy Thor was at its 2nd. Also, they later crossed paths, shared comic issues, it's fair to say they go hand in hand and Jason Aaron, the author, probably doesn't want us to compare them, as they complete and compliment each other's stories. Still I decided to check the comic that made Thor unworthy in the first place - Thor: God of Thunder (2012 - 2014), which seemed to me more "comparable" to Might Thor (2015 - 2018). *I keep putting the years it was being released so as to not be confused with previous Mighty Thor issues, whole Odinson was still Thor, please bear with me* So yes, the numbers were pretty close, but from what I saw, Mighty Thor had the upper hand if we compare first issue to first issue and so on. (In defense of Odinson, we have to take into account that this data is only from the US and does not include digital sales. Also, he's been around since the 50s. We could argue Jane was a breath of fresh air that some Marvel fans were indeed ready for. As a non-American, and also a person without a hint of knowledge in economics I cannot take into account inflation and whatever else has prevented or enabled Americans to get their hands on the comics or has affected prizes through the years. Bear that in mind.) Moreover, from what I saw on Comichron, both comics had much competition - God of thunder was released along with Avengers vs the X-men, the Uncanny X-men, pretty popular at the time, and the Goddess of Thunder faced Civil War 2 and DC Universe Rebirth (yes, DC is in the game too), also dominating with tremendous sales for the longest time. Yet I stick with my original statement - both Thors are valid and shouldn't be put against one another regardless of profit. Because at the end of the day what will matter the most is the story. And boy, what a story it is.
Now, I haven't read the Thor: God of Thunder, but as I was doing research I found one very well written summary and explanation of Thor's arc and his becoming unworthy and I will post a link below, because I honestly feel I wouldn't be doing this comic a favor by describing it without having read it. Which I plan to do in the future, tbh. It's a fantastic prelude to the Mighty Thor (2015 - 2018) that I've come to love. First, I'd like to ask you all to stop hating on the comic without having read it first. It doesn't make any sense and being petty for the sake of being petty won't benefit neither you, nor anyone, really. Now, about the comic itself - the art is magnificent. It's just gorgeous. Mighty Thor isn't , thank all the gods, sexualized, she is pretty buffed and generally looks like a warrior. As it is with the other characters, I dare say. The background truly captures the essence of every world Jane finds herself on. Action scenes are just the right amount and balanced with dialogue well. On a side note, it's pretty funny to read/listen to in your head the Shakespearean English cursive in which Jane talks as Thor. The plot line branches beyond this comic, starting from Thor: God of Thunder and leading to the War of Realms. And it is elaborately built in every issue. You don't know what to expect, yet it makes sense when it happens. Which leads me to the characterizations. My God, what a treat Loki is in this. Clearly, my opinion is kinda biased, since he's my favorite character, but you never know which side he's on. What his motivations are. And it just feels so... Loki. His writing is brilliant. Almost makes me forget what the MCU did to him. Also, he gets some daddy time with Laufey (not as kinky as I make it sound). Frigga/Freyja is just as awesome as in the MCU, even more, at least in the comics she calls Odin out on his shit, who btw is I guess an asshole in every version and universe. Malekith, the main villain, is unbearably despicable, I want to tear every page he is on. He really was mishandled in the Dark World, if you want some true action with the dark elves, you are welcome to enjoy. I saved the best for the end - Jane Foster/ Might Thor. Now, if you think Dr. Foster spends her time boasting about her worthiness and how Odinson is just called Thor, but she is Mighty Thor, you are horribly wrong. She just... does her job. Because the hammer chose her. Because there's no one else to do so. That's it. If you think there's some feminism involved, yes, there sure is, but it certainly isn't the reason Jane became Thor in the first place. It was not the creators going SJW because it's trendy, as such a mindset is honestly offensive to any descent creator with any self respect, but a well thought out story arc, which, I repeat, you have to read the comic to understand. Jane is not at all whiny about the hate she gets in-universe, not only from foes like Odin and who-not, but from Shield and generally people whose asses she's saving. Her having cancer is not something they pulled to provoke sympathy and make her look like a victim - on the contrary, she is a damn hero and a victor. I don't want to give out spoilers, but her being Thor is actually a giant sacrifice that no one really appreciates (both in-universe and in the fandom). She is not Thor to prove she can be, or just to prove "women can be heroes" - she doesn't have to. She is simply needed by the realms and so she does her job, even though she is called a thief, persecuted and generally hated. All that matters is that the hammer finds her worthy - the beauty and simplicity of that fact you will find out, for the last time, if you read the comic.
I'm not making you read the comic or watch Thor: Love and Thunder. I myself don't know what to make of this film yet because there's barely any information about it. I only know it will be based on the comic so that's a reason for my hopes to be up already. On the other hand, since I didn't like Loki's characterization in Ragnarok, I'm not sure what to expect from Taika. There are valid reasons to not like the idea of Jane returning to the MCU as Thor, which you are entitled to. However, reasons such as "why does everything have to be political these days" are not. Because if I had to make a list of everything politically related in the MCU, it would take forever. Steve Rogers kills nazis is the most blatant example. Make of it what you want. But I think we're far enough into the 21st century to realize art and real life are not that separable. It's undeniable that art affects people and that is to say, people everywhere. And they all have different opinions and aren't gonna like everything media is offering to them. And I wish I could simply tell you not to watch the movie but I'm a Marvel fan too and I understand that I can't just take away Thor from you because I want Mighty Thor as well. But none of us can stop Marvel from producing it. So, to quote an image I saw recently, I don't know how to explain to you that you should care about other people. Let the rest of the fandom enjoy what they want to enjoy. Yes, ik I can play around with the tags and avoid posts that unnerve me but, for example, I'm looking up Mighty Thor fanart, which obviously isn't anti-Mighty Thor, yet I get attacked in the comics for anticipating a movie that doesn't even have a full cast yet. Ik I'm not asking for too much when I wish to get the same internet experience (not only tumblr, but also insta, YouTube, Twitter, any site) as the Thor Odison fans, for example. I'm aware I cannot stop all the toxic fans and the trolls but I hope this post has inspired those of you who simply can't envision Jane as Thor, or don't like Natalie Portman in the role, or whatever eles personal preference that doesn't involve political issues and isn't harmful to the community, not to attack every post on your dash with hate. The movie is called LOVE and Thunder, for God's sake. (on a side note, is a franchise that is too afraid to show LGBT characters for more than 1 minute so as to not lose profit from China, THAT politically correct)
Anyway, that was a veeeery long rant, sorry to whoever reads this but, like, please, I put effort into this, hoping this time around I won't be the only positive reviewer of a movie, like I was with Solo: a Star Wars story (yes, I'm still bitter about this), which was boycotted for no apparent reason but was a decent film in reality, and I'm only bringing it up because it has a similar experience to Love and Thunder for getting hate before even being released. I'm not defending a billion dollar company that flopped in box office once, I'm defending the viewer's right to media they are interested in. If you don't like the character, remember - that's your opinion, not a fact that the character sucks. Kudos.
Not very easy to navigate, I advice you to do the research month by month individually for comics you'd like to compare. Also, if you happen to find more reliable data, pls say so in the comments.
Here you have the summary and explanation of the greatness of Thor: God of Thunder, Jesus, I'll go bankrupt if I buy this one too.
youtube
Yes, I want to end the sales dispute once and for all, I'm tired of seeing it on my dash. This guy probably explains it better than I did.
@awesomejenlawrence you said you'd like to read this and I delivered

About my Blood: Loki Laufeyson
Tumblr media
I was waiting for you.
That was what you wanted, wasn't it?
Loki Laufeyson. This is the name by which you learned to know me. From the infamous day in the Voult, when I first uttered it, with a broken voice, ... incredulous gaze.
A violent and painful emotion.
My ears were ringing, I stared at the emptiness for explanations that would never come.
Laufey's son.
Before starting I want to say immediately what I may have never dared to admit aloud ...
I started calling myself Laufeyson for revenge against Odin.
Just to spite him.
To reiterate that, if for him I had never been worthy to bear his name, I too didn't want to have anything to do with his people, arrogant and self-centered.
Calling myself Loki Laufeyson made me feel free from the yoke of Odin, from the power he had on me.
It was like laughing at his coldness.
"I am not like you, nor like that boisterous idiot of your son ..." said that name "I am other, something different from all of you, fucking hypocrites, that you go around like all of you were all shining and immaculate souls! "
It was like being able to shake off his reproach, his frowning expression of eternal discontent.
I was no longer Loki Odinson, sad, silent and obedient; that new identity, that reappropriation of my true roots had injected me strength, courage, will.
My Father silently disdained me for what I really was? Did all of them point out to me like the jealous, conspirator, liar and deceiver?
Very well, I would have satisfied them all by dressing gloriously of my new name.
I was a Frost Giant, son of an evil race, murderous and treacherous, .. he who had begotten me was their King, Laufey by the grin of predator, the look of blood, the hands dripping of the annihilated lives of his enemies and who knows who's others.
If this was what they thought of me, I would have given it to them.
Loki Laufeyson would have been what others wanted, or thought, I was.
And so Loki Laufeyson has betrayed Asgard, betrayed his brother, rejected his mother, tried to take what had always been denied. A place.
He brought chaos and destruction to Midgard, sparking a strange war that hiding something else behind it.
Loki Laufeyson was the most evil I could be.
And once again I find myself wondering if it was really what I wanted. The hatred toward my Father and the desire for revenge for what he had done devoured my soul, so that nothing at that time seemed to me enough to punish him.
To punish all of them, damned Asgardians, ... them and that look of superiority with which they all gazed at the others.
Loki Laufeyson had taken the little Loki with sad eyes by the hand, and with persuasive and poisonous words had put him in a corner, in silence, ... once again silenced and left to watch destroy his world and the people who, somehow, he still loved.
Whispering with his voice of treacherous velvet: "Look, child, ... look how easy it is to lie and deceive, taste the sweet taste of revenge, I do it for you, child. Is what you've always wanted, isn't? Be good, now, and let the pain of others drive your own pain away... "
Loki Laufeyson hasn't looked at anyone in order to have his revenge: not his brother, not his mother, ...for not to mention that infamous, arrogant liar of his father.
Yet I still believe that "he" was also a victim of Odin.
I know what you are thinking.
"How the hell do you talk today? Loki Laufeyson are you ... what are these little words tricks?"
Ah, sweet Midgardians children, you know how much the words plays on my lips, and how much I enjoy myself in this. Nevertheless there are events, in my unfortunate life, which by their nature can not be analyzed rationally.
By their nature, yes...
Do you have any idea, the furthest idea of what it meant to me, a boy, to have discovered the gigantic lie that had been my life up to that moment? See with horror my skin become blue, the sneer of the demon that held me tight so as not to lose even a moment of my loss, my paiful disbelief.
Understanding in a moment that nothing would ever be like before.
If ever there had been, a "before" ...
The nightmare had begun to end no more. I had become Loki Laufeyson. I had always been Loki Laufeyson.
A misfortune. The enemy. The blue demon. The monster.
I understood in a moment my father's lies, and the reason for his detachment. The most cynical part of me could even understand it.
How can you love someone you've never really wanted? The son of your worst enemy ...
How can you love a child who, you already know, will never be like you, or like the perfect child you already have ...?
You can not. And if you try to do it, at most you can offer that kind indifference, cold as the winter sun. And that will hurt him, slowly, silently, day by day, without remedy ....
Pay no attention to what has been shown to you. I didn't accepted that very uncomfortable truth in a week: things don't go so fast, and the souls torn to pieces, sometimes, need time to go crazy little by little.
I lived with that heartbreaking truth, in silence, for a long time, ... yes, a lot, if I speak in Midgardians terms.
My father had filled my brother and me, and our little children's minds, with myriads of grim and bloody stories about how monstrous the Jotunn demons were. Thor has become a man with the glorious mission to exterminate them one by one.
Can you understand my hell?
My pure terror? After a youth spent hating and fearing that breed of brutal murderers, suddenly the monster is me. I'm one of them.
One of them...
Can you understand? The sense of emptiness, the nausea, the disgust ... the feeling to be disgusting and dirty, guilty only for the fact of existing, living and breathing there, among the radiant Aesir. How many times I washed myself, in my rooms, and rubbed my skin, rubbed, rubbed ... with my nails, even, ... until I bleed, as if that blue could disappear, that horrible lizard color that disgusted me up to the point to throw up all night, desperate and on the verge of insanity.
And then the sharp thought of never being enough for anyone took over.
Not for my father, the biological one, ... the monster, he is, yes, ... who had chosen death for his son, whose only fault was to be small in a race of giants. Not for the man, ... The God who had wanted to save me for a strange mixture of emotions and strategies.
Odin, Allfather, who had found this adopted son under his roof, ... and who, only after many years, he realized he could never love him. I had not been enough for anyone.
Not enough for Laufey. Not enough for Odin.
If I had died there, on the frozen rock, it would have been better for everyone. Me for first.
I tell this myself again, sometimes, when anguish tortures me and sadness devours my broken soul.
Loki Laufeyson.
The son of the enemy. The Lost Prince. But also the rightful King of that inhospitable place, dark, cold, with the pungent air of ice.
Jotunheim.
When we were young, this word was enough for Thor and I to be overwhelmed by shivering with fear. And many, countless times, I stayed awake until late under the covers, terrified of finding one of those blue monsters, drooling next to my bed to devour me.
If only I had imagined ...
I am still struggling to accept passively my true heritage, ... to accept "the other", the blue demon I see in the mirror every time I allow my magic to loosen.
It's not easy for me, it's not at all.
Do you want to see?
Will you bear the sight of what I really am? Do you think you are ready, you who cry out to love my Jotunn nature, and accept my true appearance, no matter what?
....
Here, do you see it? Do you see the demon?
My skin ...is not ... it's not pale. It's blue ... my mother used to say that it looked beautiful, beautiful like the snow at dusk when it turns blue, .. but she could find some good anywhere ...
Do you see it? It is cold, cold as ice, adorned with intricate lines, lighter blue. They point out at my Prince Jotunn's blood, in truth. I already knew that, ever since I was a boy, I was studying and reading about the many peoples who live in Yggdrasill like so many swarming insects. The lines on my forehead are the three qualities that a King Jotunn must have: ruthlessness, brutality, and the last one, the one divided in two in a specular manner, is explained by a sentence in an ancient manuscript about my race ... "If you have to die, bring your enemy with you "
What kind of creature am I, with death written on my face?
Look me in the eyes, come on  ...
Are they still the captivating, deep green eyes you're in love with?
They are eyes like a beast, a ferret, demon eyes that pierce the darkness and that see you everywhere. Killer eyes.
Do you still like me? Am I still the wonderful God of Mischief ?
What do you see of me now?
Is it equally fascinating, Loki Laufeyson, in his purest form?
.....
You know, ... in the time when I started fighting my furious inner battle against "him", I also started to accept the fact of being this, and try to change it at the same time. To prove to the eyes of all those pompous bastards that does not count the color of the skin, but what you have inside ... that moves you, this is what matters.
I wanted to prove that I was different. I wanted to prove everyone that they was wrong.
So once I saved a girl, prey of dangerous winter fevers.
The healers no longer knew what to do, while she was extinguished like a little candle, day after day, thinning like a ghost, her eyes rimmed with dark circles, her lips dry and cracked. She stood still in his little bed, barely breathing, moaning from time to time, in his heavy and painful sleep.
I knew her. She was the daughter of a soldier, ... a shy girl who gave flowers to Thor and weaved silky bracelets to me. An adorable, innocent girl.
One day I went into the Healing Chambers and got everyone out. His mother, ... the maids, the old doctors with that heavy look of eternal gravediggers ...everybody get out, leave me alone with her ...
I sat at the side of the bed and watched her breathing hard.
"Thor's flowers have dried up, child, and you promised me a green silk bracelet with a new weave, do you remember?" I whispered, stroking her hot temples "Come back to us, come back to those who love you, little bird, ... Hel's bleating dogs are not worthy of your lovely face ..."
I gently took her hand, rested my lips on her forehead and loosened the magic that held the Jotunn shape.
I had to be very careful not to use too much power not to hurt her, ... just let the frost of my skin sooth the fever fire, slowly.
"Come back, little one... come on, come back to us, to those who love you ..."
And she did it. The fever lowered and I saw her sleep in peace, without jolts and moans, ... just pink cheeks, regular breathing. She was just very cold and red where I had touched it.
She healed, and she never knew it, though I suspect her mother understood it and told it to her, as she later thanked me stammering with tear-stained eyes. Little Elìn ... I hope life smiled at her later.
Last time I saved my brother.
Yes, you read that right, you don't need to reread.
I saved the precious God of Thunder's ass.
When my father allowed him to return from his exile (again, ... forget the stories of images you saw, ... the time is a ribbon much more intricate than simple visual tales...) there was another battle. Little thing, in truth, ... a skirmish. I could say that we had fought worst ones, yet on this occasion Thor was badly wounded. Very badly. Like a boy.
To a thigh, in a wretched spot, and the blood oozed out.
We had dragged between dry heather and boulders, far from the fight now exhausted, and both battered we looked at each other to see if we were still alive.
In reality, I was on the verge of losing my mind, and I was fighting another battle in silence, so as not to get rid of the demons' bites. So I pretended.  My father had taught me that. Or rather, imposed, since I was a child, and I had become good.
In a few days I would have come down to the Vault looking for answers, ... but I was telling another thing.
About Thor who, under my eyes, was bleeding like a rookie. Livid as if he were already dead, he looked at me trembling, his pants torn and soaked with blood: he also tried to disguise, with his smile like a braggart, ... but it was like seeing the depths of Hel come to take one piece at a time .
"Why...why you look at me like that, Loki, ... stop, ... you ... you're making me nervous ..."
My coat that had stopped the bleeding for a while, now no longer held ... I saw it darken, full of blood.
"You're dying, you silly, brainless oaf, how should I look at you?" I muttered.
He, with his last strength, grabbed me brutally by the shoulder and shook me: he still possessed a tremendous force, even with the claws of death planted in the neck .
"Do not you dare to talk to me like this anymore, little brother!
I pushed him away.
"Or what?" I cried, "Will you kill me like the Giants you hate so much? Just a little longer and you won't have a brother anymore!"
I said it because I wanted to poke into his arrogant, empty head that was really dying. To hear it now, it sounds sadly truthful, I realize ...
I pushed him against a rock to remain seated, then tore off the hood, uncovering the bloody gash.
"All right, I've had enough!" Now shut up, for once! "
I put my hand on it, he jumped violently: the blood leaked through my fingers, running in tiny red revolts. I had no more time to think ...
"Loki, what ... what are you doing ...?"
"I'm saving your life, you stupid, and now you close your mouth ... and don't say anything, before I change my mind ..."
In truth he no longer had the strength, and remained motionless, half-fixed, staring at me.
"We have to close this damn wound, ... and in the absence of fire, the ice will do the same service ..."
"Wha-what...?" became even paler.
Once again I loosed the magic and my skin went blue, the blue marks on my face, the demon's red eyes, ... I shuddered with terror: I was in front of Thor the Almighty in my full Jotunn form. Even at the point of death, he could raise Mjiollnir and crush me instantly, like a harassing insect. But the moments passed and I was still alive ...
"The fire and the ice both burn, isn't it? Only the ice is colder ..." I said it with tears in my eyes, chuckling.
Thor stared at me, wide-eyed, motionless, as if he were already dead and looking at me from the Otherworld. But then he whispered:
"Loki ... Loki, of all your idiocies ... what ... what the hell is that ...?"
"This is the most idiotic of all, I know, ..." I whispered almost speaking to myself  "Now close that damn mouth and don't let me say it again!"
I gave him no more way to reply, not even to look at me again with those haunted and upset eyes; I pulled the edges of the wound and squeezed, letting the power of nature Jotunn flow. I heard him scream, he clung to me with such violence that he almost broke my shoulder. I found myself staring at her blue eyes, full of resentment and surprise, planted in mine, red like the berries of winter.
They were furious and fierce eyes, which almost physically attacked me. He would have killed me. If only he had had a little more strength I am sure he would have killed me instantly, before realizing that it was me, prey to hatred of my race. Hatred that our father had instilled in him since childhood, poisonous drops that had corrupted his heart.
But it did not happen.
After those terrible moments, Thor gasped, closed his eyes and then collapsed heavily against me, unconscious.
I looked at him in shock, without having the courage to breathe, or dare to touch him: slowly, the magic that concealed my true aspect resumed control, and my skin became discoloring to become the pale one of Aesir. Although battered and covered with dried blood.
I was still. Hands up. The disheveled blond head of my brother abandoned on my chest.
What ... what did I just do? As I had thought of ...
But it was the only way not to have a new God of Thunder in my life.
Merciful Gods of Asgard ... I had just shown myself to Thor, in my Jotunn form and saved him from bleeding. It sounded damn surreal and senseless ...
And now what would have happened?
I remember checking the wound. It smoked. A dense, icy and whitish smoke. The skin was purple, almost blackish, so cold that it burned, if it makes sense ... the edges were juxtaposed, covered with a thin layer of ice and frost crystals. There was dried blood encrusted everywhere. Frost and dried blood on his pants, on my trembling hands, on Thor's blonde hair. A mess...
The wound was closed, burned by frost. Thor was safe. In a few days, I would have found myself dangling in the void beyond Bifrost, pushed down by my father's firm and cruel "no". Odin, who left his son to choose death with that refusal to resonate in the air, while the emptiness already cradled him.
That day, though, I had saved Thor's precious life and nobody ever knew it. Not even him, who was convinced that he survived because he had the brilliant idea of ??pressing fresh snow on the wound, ... that stupid naive child !!
This was and is still Loki Laufeyson. Contradictions and twisted thoughts.
Loki Laufeyson is an ice-skinned demon, torn between good and evil, left there to scream all his anger. Torn by the desperate need of approval and the cynical desire not to belong to anyone else who is not himself.
My legacy is dark, my lineage, brutal and cruel, ... while Asgard was my stepmother, at first benevolent, then, with resentment and cruelty, she abandoned me when I needed her more.
Is it any wonder, then, if I find this painful and inextricable tangle of demons that devour my soul, sometimes in silence, sometimes, ... as now, ... screaming all their anguish?
It cost me a lot to write all this. A lot of effort, a lot of time, a lot of tears, sleepless nights and new sadness.
And yet I'm not satisfied with it, because I feel there's still so much to boil in my bloody Jotunn blood. Something indefinite, nameless that presses and cries to be heard, to be seen, to have space
I have not even figured out who the hell I am yet.
The green-eyed sad child who was praying for a sincere caress of his father? The young Prince that no one has ever loved? The miserable wreck that caused the death of his mother? The glorious, shining God of Mischief, with his captivating smile and sharp tongue? The Frost demon that saved Thor's life?
Who is Loki Laufeyson?
All of this?
Something else, so terrible that others see and I have not dared to recognize?
From time to time I loosen the magic that hides my appearance, and I look at myself, as you did a while ago.
Do not think it's so natural for me, or that I like it. I spent years to remain impassive in front of the mirror, to look at my face furrowed by blue lines, crazy eyes ... my body, the blue skin, cold as ice on the water.
....
Here it is. I scrutinize. I look at myself.
I try to find splinters of what I have always known about myself in that blue-haired unkempt that looks back at me, beyond the mirror.
Loki Laufeyson.
This is what my father feared. That's why he kept me away. I wonder if he thought the same things when he picked me up, ... a Jotun baby. I wonder if he hated me since then.
A newborn baby who cried in despair, believing he had to die ... what threat could I represent?
But I had Laufey's blood, murderer and traitor. However, I was condemned.
It was my blood that scared him, that alarmed him.
Jotunn blood. The blood of a King.
I will never give up what the others think I should be. I will not bend to their judgments.
I am free of all their hypocrisy, and I have chosen to live respecting myself, ... at least for a while, as far as I can. For the time when my demons leave me alone.
Little Loki Odinson came out of his corner, tired of being put aside by everyone, and now speaks for himself.
I smile. I grin.
And the image in the mirror smiles me back.
