A Crown of Frost (Snippets)

Let’s be clear, this is the real reason I’m back on this site. I have begun chaos and I refuse to post it yet, so instead I must scream into a void as I shake everything around me violently.

This idea has been burning in my head for a little bit and I am utterly obsessed with Jotun Loki at the moment (which is the whole point of The Frozen Branch series). So what did I do? I decided to play a little “Everyone Loves Loki!” ... Sort of.

Let’s be honest, I’ve been around reading fic absently for years before I even made an Ao3 account. At the time I looked at my past writings and went “oh dear god, no, I should never write fanfiction again” so that took a good five-ish years to get over. But I’ve seen a lot of Loki’s changes through fandom, particularly with regards to ships, and man! I love ships! I love all the ships! So many ships!!

I haven’t even decided how this one will end, frankly. But I have a couple little snippets from a couple of different chapters to share, since I’m planning to break it down... sort of by ship.

Not all of the ships involved have snippets for sharing, yet, so this isn’t all there is to expect. ❤

Below the cut for snippets!

Intro Snippet:

On the branch of frost was born the snowflake of Jotunheim, with skin the colour of Midgard's daylight skies and hair darker than the coals of Muspelheim.

From a realm known for its unforgiving climate and brutal people emerged whispers of a beauty unrivalled in all the realms - and naturally, such a thing was coveted. For many years the whispers grew, truths and fictions weaving into a tapestry of an idea.

So when it was announced that the heir to the throne of Jotunheim - the very tapestry woven into the minds of the nine realms - would be meeting with potential suitors from across the realms, it was no surprise to find each realm well represented.

(A/N: This fic, as you may have noticed, began with intentions of being a fairytale. And... then I added Darcy and it went off the rails really quickly. I love you, Darcy.)

Darcy and the Giant Snippet:

"Alright, lay it on me. What are you looking for here? There's some stuff going on, and you kinda called three of them out about not loving you or something so… what's the political situation?"

"Thor is the biggest political situation." Loptr sipped their drink, looking thoughtfully at it.

"Oh yeah, big guy, gorgeous hair? Oh who am I kidding, everyone has gorgeous hair here…"

“You would consider Thor to be… big?” Loptr responded with clear confusion.

“Right, talking to a giant. Duh.”

(AN: When you’re the human in a land of non-humans, things get kind of weird. And Darcy didn’t bring a shovel to this snowy world.)

Thor’s Grand Proposal Snippet:

“I meant what I said before. I want peace between our people, Your Highness. We’ve been in conflict as long as both of us have been alive. For the sake of our people, and our children.”

“That isn’t what I asked,” Loptr chuckled, their lips quirking upwards. “I understand what you want from marriage. But what do you want from me, Prince Thor? And what do you require from a spouse?”

“Oh, yes of course!” Sitting back as food was placed in front of him, Thor rubbed at his leg under the table briefly in an attempt to reorient himself. “I require a bride if only to mother children - though, I believe-”

Before he could even finish speaking, the figure across the table shifted some in shape, chest filling out and a somewhat more feminine curl of hair managing to fall over her shoulders.

"Yes, I do believe I can fulfil that purpose just fine."

(A/N: I love Thor a lot, and Thorki is about as classic as Loki ships get! But oh gosh, I’m not used to writing this big softie. I’m getting some practice in elsewhere, and hopefully this whole segment will tighten up better!)

Tony’s Adventures in Bartending Snippet:

“You can just call me Tony. Anthony is a little overly formal, don’t you think?”

“Says the one who keeps calling me ‘Your Highness’.”

He tilted his head at the other before Loptr snagged his drink right out from under him, taking a sip. He sat up, giving the heir a surprised look, before smirking.

“Okay. Point. Am I getting that glass back?”

“No. You were going to bartend for me, Tony. And you may call me Loki when we are alone.”

Well, that was another surprise. Shrugging, he got to his feet and made his way around the bar, bowing teasingly.

“As you wish, Loki.”

(A/N: Hello, I love them friends. Any time Loki and Tony over in Collared start hurting my heart, I pop back over to this segment because this is the energy I love from these two. I feast.)

The Secrets Stephen Seeks Snippet:

"You seek a spouse to fill a void in your soul, Stephen?"

"A spouse?" Stephen leaned forward in his seat to look at Loptr, watching them intently. "I didn't come seeking a spouse. I came seeking you, Loki."

Loptr looked slightly taken aback by that and the sorcerer couldn't help but smile softly.

"You came seeking the rumours," Loptr responded, collecting themself again.

"Mmm, yes. But not the rumours of Loptr. As you've pointed out so astutely, I seek knowledge in all things. What need do I have for beauty and power?"

(A/N: Oh. Yeah. The ship that inspired me to finally pick up an Ao3 account and WRITE. Working on both IronFrost and StrangeFrost separately in one fic has been fun, it feels like it really breaks down what I love about IronStrangeFrost!

But this is all I’ve got for you for blips for now. Back to trying to finish up the next chapter of Collared, no more procrastinating... probably.)

Cursed Doctor Who Pitches That Almost Work:

Doctor Omens: Neil Gaiman as writer, David Tennant as the Doctor, Michael Sheen as the Master, Nina Sosanya and Maggie Service as companions, John Hamm as a villainous President of the USA.

Doctor Loki: Kate Herron as writer, Sophia Di Martino as the Doctor, Tom Hiddleston as the Master, Owen Wilson and Ke Huy Quan as companions, Gugu Mbatha Raw as the Rani.

Also I find it so underwhelming how earth centric the Loki show is. Characters could come from all across the universe, but no they're all just regular humans. Loki himself knows way too much about Earth and it makes no sense character-wise

i think. i should read more comics.

loki reminds me of a fluffy, harmless, spider like- a good spider !! like a cute lil pet spider- he's mobius' pet spider !!

[themculibrary]

hey! I think my ask was eaten by tumblr given that it's been a few weeks, so I'll ask again. (If you just haven't found the fic I apologize for bothering you). Anyway, it was a time-travel fic that started off in Siberia right after the Civil War fight. It took Tony to the aftermath of the first Avengers. He kept feeling betrayedl at Steve. I know Natasha noticed something was off about him. It was loki/tony. Thanks!

Could it be this fic?

If You Had This Time Again (ao3) - dls loki/tony T, 268k

Summary: Tony Stark closed his eyes in a wrecked Siberian bunker and woke up on a demolished New York street. Four years earlier.

There is such a lack of angsty Thor fics out there, I feel like I’ve read all of them at this point 😭

Forever amazed that they couldn't just have a soul healing healthy moment of "i can finally love myself" and "I am not alone in the universe" and instead they got some weird selfcest for hollywood porpus bc a show without kissing and weird romance is not acceptable. Makes me feel like Sylvie is an escalated Y/N.

Loki and Sylvie were perfectly fine without this, they could have had a nice compassion and union with metaphorical joutnay of self acceptance but no.

Loki could also have a friend. A FRIEND. Just ONE. But no. He cannot have simple friendship and basic human compassion. Any act of kindness tho words him is confused with romantic love? Come on. Let him just have somebody in his life without the pressure of cheap love at first glance bs. Let my boy have god damn friends. No pressure, no obligations, show people that something beside romance matters in life. Bc romance is literally at the bottom of the list Loki needs first.

Love how everyone is freaking out about Billy, and AgathaxRio and Wanda and whatever else they’re freaking out about, and all that like all the episodes are already out. Meanwhile I’m just scared that it’s gonna seem like it’s working up to something great and then it’ll have that horrible Loki esc ending. Which for those who don’t know, was horrible for everyone who is sane, this is not opinion but fact and it held out the potential of potential until the very end and just kinda failed. So essentially, I just want there to be a satisfactory ending with no big missing pieces and no major cliffhangers or loose ends that haven’t already been either confirmed or largely speculated to be solved in something else. And as this is AGATHA all along I really just hope that the last 2 episodes are super Agatha centric and that Agatha either 1. Gets a happy ending or 2. Is basically confirmed to have more to do in the larger MCU and more spotlight type moments later on. And I also kinda hope that this next episode kinda keeps the same vibes as episodes 3+4 since this is def gonna be Lilia’s trial and I want her to have the same treatment as Jen and Alice. (I think we all know that Agatha, Rio, and Billy are special)

And there is my hopefully unproblematic view on the last few episodes of Agatha All Along, everyone pretend to be happy even tho I know it’s basically impossible but imo this is one of, if not the, best thing to come out of marvel since like season 1 of Loki at best.

I will say tho that I think the hating AAA because no Wanda isn’t cool. I personally didn’t think I’d see Wanda in this any more than I’d think I’d see her in ant man. It’s not fair to either character to have Wanda come now, she’ll almost definitely overshadow Agatha in her own show, and she should be able to have a return that is just about her, and that also shouldn’t happen unlit Billy, Toby, and Robo Papa are sorted out first.

I decided to create a masterpost or two with all the reblogs that I like in hopes that when someone sends out the “help me find that post” I can find it faster. It will be added to slowly because I do not have the patience to do it all at once. Also in no particular order of preference.

Keep in mind none of these posts are my works and I do not claim them as such.

If you see *** they are really good prompts with lots of reblogs.

Hiiii :D I was just wondering, do you have any good Marvel fic reccomendations? Your massive list of star wars fics is like the no.1 thing I go to when im in a star wars mood, and all of them have been amazing, so thanks so much for that!! I'm just curious if you have any good Marvel fic recs?? If not that's fine lol, thank you for your service 🙏

Hi! Lol, I had to sit with this post for a few days because "Marvel fic" is such a wide range of possibilities, like are we talking the comics or the live action shows? The Avengers movies? The X-Men movies? Which section of those fandoms? Avengers as a team? Captain America? Thor? Iron Man? Daredevil? X-Men: First Class? Just... anything? I don't actually have a lot of comics fic recommendations (mostly because it's too hard to wade through all the movie stuff because so many people cross-tag into the comics tags despite it not being comic fic that those tags are now useless), but my go-to for Marvel comics are always: ✦ Betrayal + Paradox Law + The Game of Empires by Valerie J It's hard to describe this series, other than that about ~15 years ago, it was an ambitious attempt at taking various elements of the X-Men comics and weaving them into a coherent whole, focusing on giving Remy an epic backstory to explain his origins and his powers. It probably wouldn't really fit with more recent comics, but if you're a fan of late '90s/early '00s X-Men comics, this was a hell of a ride with cool powers, surprising family twists, time travel, fun relationships, and incredible ramp ups to tense situations that explode in the best way. ✦ The Gestalt Arc by Lori McDonald Another old school fic centered around the Remy/Rogue relationship and taking them on an epic journey, in an alternate version of what happened after their kiss in X-Men #41. The ups and downs of how they work out their issues, the lives they try to lead with each other, finding their path forward together, it's still one of my favorites for the era. ✦ Anything by Traincat for the Young Avengers My favorite is grab a blanket, brother, but they're an author that I'd write a blanket rec for, if any of the summaries sound relevant to your interests! They also write Peter Parker/Johnny Storm, which isn't my area of comics, but I'd trust them with it! But primarily I'd route you to them for their super fun Young Avengers stories, the Teddy/Billy and Eli/Kate ones especially. ✦ Anything by silverspidertm2, X-parrot, takadainmate, or Mythtaken Identity for Journey into Mystery and Loki: Agent of Asgard-era fic. This is when I was in my prime era of reading Thor comic-centric fic, around Journey into Mystery and Loki: Agent of Asgard, when he was Kid Loki and then Teen Loki. There was a lot really fun worldbuilding or road trips or just feelings explosions fic from this era. Beyond that, my bookmarks are a bit of a mess, but you can scroll through them to see what you're looking for. My primary fandoms were: ✦ Daredevil TV, where I went in hard on Matt/Foggy (and some Matt/Foggy/Karen and Frank/Karen and a little Matt/Elektra), where I read voraciously for about a year before MCU burnout hit. Some faves are Double Blind by smilebackwards and Something Dumb to Do by poisonivory and jump, check parachute augustbird.

✦ Thor (MCU), which is actually the heart of who I was as an MCU fan, I spent a long time there reading a lot of fic and this will take you to my bookmarks with the pairings filtered out. I was a big fan of Thor & Loki's relationship so that's most of what's in there, and I always suggest starting with these three fics: ✦ Bargaining by proantagonist, thor & loki & odin & frigga & cast, time travel, 108.9k Faced with an eternity without his brother, Loki strikes a bargain to change the past. Post TDW. ✦ No Such Liberty by Xparrot, thor & loki & cast, 147.3k The first thing Loki said, after he had swiped his tongue over his lips to wet them, was, "You shouldn't trust me." ~ Following the attack on New York, Thor takes Loki back to Asgard in chains; but this does not mean that the god of mischief's schemes are ended, or that Thor has or ever will give up on his brother. But when Thanos threatens the realm to claim his lost prizes, on which side will Loki fall? [post-Avengers fix it] ✦ The Lullaby Singer by TheOtherOdinson, thor & loki & odin & frigga, 85k wip Odin hasn't left Asgard in over a thousand years. When he finds out Loki is still alive and preparing to launch an attack on Midgard, he could send Thor to stop him. Or Odin could go himself. As a bonus, I have a few more Thor genfic recs here.

✦ Captain America (MCU), where sure I liked some gen fic but lbr I was there for the Stucky. I mostly read during the height of the post-TWS fervor and then tapered off a lot after that (given how hard they swerved away from their relationship) and I haven't read almost anything in the fandom since Endgame, but if you want some fun TWS-era fic, I put together this list recently. (To be fair, I also liked a lot of Steve &/ Natasha, Bucky &/ Natasha and Sam/Natasha, so you can find that in there, too.)

✦ Iron Man (MCU), where I liked a mix of some fun gen pieces and some Tony/Pepper which put me in the minority, but I don't care because there were some banger authors for both. If you're interested in them, I always liked pretty much anything I read by roboticonography. icarus_chained wrote a wider variety of stuff, but I've always liked anything I've read from them as well.

✦ Avengers (MCU), where I read a lot of fic, but it's kind of all mixed in together, even some sprinkled in Black Panther fic, some Spideypool that was super fun for a hot minute, some Guardians of the Galaxy characters showing up, etc. Step carefully if you're not interested in pairings (I read a fair amount of Tony/Loki and Steve/Loki in amongst the other stuff), but honestly by the end I was probably reading more gen than anything.

✦ X-Men: First Class-verse, which is my exception to not reading much for the live action versions of the X-Men, because I am a long time Pietro Maximoff fan and while Peter wasn't my Pietro, I did love him and there was some absolute banger fic for the Dadneto trope, which was where my heart was at. Come Together by blarfkey is absolutely the first place to start!

Hopefully this is what you were looking for, but if you have further refinements on what you're interested in, let me know and I'll try to give some pointers! I've been out of reading Marvel for awhile, but I have a huge backlog from when I was in it, at least. 😂
