The Pan-Dimensional Frisbee - pt 2.
26. “Captain England and the Winter Assassin”
27. (okay so all of the HP characters were specific superheroes, so I'm going to list them here) Blaise - Titanium Man - Iron Man Ron - Quickcopper - Quicksilver Ginny - The Crimson Witch - The Scarlet Witch Harry - Captain England - Captain America Draco - The Winter Assassin - The Winter Soldier Hermione - Captain Wonder - Captain Marvel Teddy - Arachnid-Man - Spider-Man Lupin - The Wolf - The Incredible Hulk (get it, bc of the dual identity thing and the monster within? lmao) Sirius - Thor (bc Sirius is Harry's GODfather and Thor is a God) Regulus - Loki (get it bc once evil and then redeemed and has a good brother?) Dean - Sparrow - Falcon Luna - Doctor Lovegood - Doctor Strange Theo - Eagle Eye - Hawkeye Neville - Micro-Man - Ant-Man Pansy - Red Widow - Black Widow
28. “I don’t think I can do Shawarma again,” Ron said. “He always wants Shawarma.”
29. Teddy grimaced before he spoke again. “My parents are dead too,” Teddy said quickly, glancing away from Draco and back to Harry. “Parker… that’s our last name, not er— Lupin. My dad… he was William and my mum’s name was Ottilie—” (another self-indulgent self reference lmao... these are the names of the parents of the OC from my main fic)
30. Savannah sighed, rolled her eyes, and turned around, releasing Harry’s hand so she could take one of the cases with her (this is an insane reference I put in lmao bc this is a character I planned out for a zombie apocalypse drarry au story I have.... so it's a reference to something that is still only an idea / outline i have)
31. The cold of the AC against Harry’s wet skin felt like a shock to the system, but truthfully, Harry realised that he was just glad he hadn’t made it snow
32. "How many times— I didn’t do it on purpose ,” Harry sighed, and Draco touched his wand to the PDF.
33. though it did feel as though several membranes had broken around them, as they propelled through that strange blur of nothing and everything, all at once.
34. "Suppose nothing more than an average Tuesday for you,” Harry smirked.
35. (after I posted this i immediately realized one I missed) --- (ch. 3) wooden crossbow off his back, and looking into the dark hills beyond, apparently done discussing things.
36. “But I felt his fever, Harry— it was a bite from a walker; you know as well as I do what that means… there’s no coming back, and I’m sorry , but—”
37. The boy’s eyes went big. “I’ve… I’ve never heard you curse before, Cap.”
38. “Sure you don’t want to leave this to the big guys?” asked Blaise
39. “I’ve told you before, Cap,” said Ron. “The running… takes a lot of protein." (reference to The Boys: Due to moving at supersonic speeds, A-Train needs to consume a high number of calories in order to have enough energy to perform such feats. While it is stated that A-Train needs 3,000 calories an hour)
40. The rhyming universe
41. “D’you think… if we die in the multiverse, then we die in real life?”
And that's all. Lmao. I think. I honestly was peppering in those references wherever I could, so I probably missed a few. But I hope you enjoyed this look into my brain hahaha
The Pan-Dimensional Frisbee - pt 1.
I decided to list out all the hidden references / easter eggs I included in this story bc I had too much fun with it and I wanted to make sure anyone who was curious could see hahaha. So, if you'd like a deep dive into my pop-culture obsession... read below
Chapter One Title: "Across the Potterverse"
“We could be anywhere . We could die! Or worse, I could be fired,” Hermione said, fumbling with the grey frisbee now that she’d been shielded from the mud. “Do I need to say it again?” Ron demanded.
“there could be a universe out there that’s every bit the same as ours, except that shrimp don’t exist, or a universe where only shrimp exist—“
“What is he, then?” Ron asked. Hermione just frowned, focusing on the PDF again, and biting her lips to bite back the word. “Say it,” Ron said. “Out loud.” “Vampire,” Hermione said.
Hermione picked up a stack of papers, and read aloud, “Hogwarts Paper Company. We never let sleeping dragons lie.”
Where their fingers had once been, were now, what looked to be, wands . They were jointed where all the knuckles should have been, and ended in a familiar pointed tip. Wooden fingers, like a puppet’s.
Harry had never seen in the Hogwarts he knew. There were glass boxes erupting from turrets, like strange additional rooms and spaces. Instead of the gargoyles at the front, large whirring metal cameras turned on a constant swivel, and the grounds, instead of being empty and sprawling, were filled with strange looking obstacle courses that reminded Harry of an old muggle war movie he’d seen.
She placed the aluminium packet on the table, and a glass dome rolled over it. Only a second later, the dome rolled away, and a full sandwich, alongside a fresh looking salad, appeared where the aluminium had been.
"don’t think I’d marry Cho. I mean, she’s lovely and all, but, no."
"Are we all still going to Nox’s afterwards?” Draco asked. “You still owe me a glass of Prosecco.” (this is a reference to an author i absolutely adore, NoxNoir :) I wanted to put them in the story in a fun little way. @ghostofnoir)
Chapter 2: Once More, With Feeling
You are about to enter another dimension… existing beyond time and space, and directly parallel to the universe of our previous story, a perfect identical match, except for one significant difference:
"Scared, Potter?” Draco asked. “You wish.”
Because right outside, instead of the ordinary muggle street he was sure he’d find, Harry saw the surface of the moon. (so, I decided to use inspiration from the movie Zathura for this dimension, and this dimension is actually supposed to be like a parallel universe travellers' like "safe zone" lmao. So if Harry and Draco just stayed there, they would have been fine. And it's why the fridge was covered in magnets... they were magnets from parallel universes)
On close inspection, they looked to be the sort of souvenir magnets typically sold in airports. All of them sported the name of some city, places like Los Cabos, Boston, Tokyo, and Frankfurt. Alongside places with names such as The Republic of Gilead, and Panem, that Harry wasn’t sure were real, as far as he was aware. However, the most shocking one of all was surely the one that said Diagon Alley, in glittery silver lettering, which Harry found himself staring at for several seconds.
His hair, still that same platinum blond, was spiked up, in a way that reminded Harry of some singer whose name he couldn’t remember. (this is a double reference, lmao, because it's a reference to my main canon rewrite series where a character frequently compares Draco to the singer Billy Idol) (which is actually a reference to how Spike in Buffy gets compared to Billy Idol / Spike is a character whose redemption arc/enemies-to-lovers arc i find to have a lot in common w/ what I want for Draco)
“You know,” Harry said, steps slow, “I think we’re in London. And I think… I think that’s David Bowie—” (This is probably the most self-indulgent reference on the list lmao. Bc.... this universe is actually a universe from another fic I've written for another fandom lmao...)
“Two Blue Lagoons,” he said, the first name he landed on. ... "Well?” Harry asked as Draco grimaced. “How is it?” “Tastes like a hangover,” Draco said. (this is referencing a line from that fic--- "Eddie does get their next drinks. Blue shots called Blue Lagoons that taste full of sugar and the promise of a hangover.")
"Hey, hey, settle a bet for me, woudja?” the man asked, accent so American it almost hurt. “See my buddy over there,” he said, pointing with his thumb over his shoulder to some other man, who looked, from what Harry could guess, embarrassed, “he’s all outta wack because a few of your fellow countrymen ruffled his feathers, talking about werewolves in the moors. I told him they were just a bunch of hot air, but I think it’s still bugging him. So, I just thought I’d get a second opinion—-confirm that’s just something you say to mess with tourists, ain’t it?” the man said, finally finishing the sudden diatribe. (like I said, this is one of the main characters from that other fic of mine.... which is another doubled reference I'm so sorry lmao...) (because that fic was inspired by the opening of An American Werewolf in London... so this is the context)
“Besides,” Draco said, dropping his voice to a whisper that made Harry lean in to hear him, “there are pixies in the moors.”
“Pixies,” the man said, when his laughter finally subsided. “Ain’t that the name of a band?” (this is a reference to a line Richie says in my other fic: "Rumors? Ain’t that a Fleetwood Mac album?” Richie asks.)
"And then, to Harry’s horror, Hannah began to sing. "I’ve got a theory that it’s a demon… a dancing demon,” she sang, “ no something isn’t right there. ”
Chapter 3: Ron of the Dead
"You've... you've got red on you," Draco said, pointing to a swipe of red—blood, probably— on Harry's hand.
“Oh… name was Brian. Brian Dumbledore”

I've seen a lot of posts on my feed complaining about how Loki isn't "bad boy" Loki anymore. And "new" Loki is too soft. That it's Tom with black hair, and not actually Loki.
Guys, LOKI ALWAYS HAS BEEN SOFT. Thor 1, momma's boy, desperate for daddy's approval, our sweet prince playing pranks, cheering on his brother, and riding his horse with a big boyish smile.
It's his life, finding his life has been a lie and all the internal racism that turned him hard, and angry. Drove him to suicide and anger and into thanos's torturous hands.
Then he gets captured by the TVA, finds out his mother died, his whole home planet blew up, and literally witnessed his own death. That is such a mind fuck. And he's also so smart! We know this, so of course he is going to play along to buy his time.
But in the end he sees the same anger in Sylvie (as much as I don't like her character, but that's more personal) and he knows it gets no where and in this situation it would do more harm that good.
The man is desperate for love and understanding. Always has been.
Loki's always been soft and I will die on that hill.

Are you still accepting crossover requests? If you are, maybe the reader as Thor and Loki’s little sibling and an ex-avenger who travelled to Romania and ending up at the Dimitrescu castle? Maybe even meeting the Lords and Mother Miranda? Thank youuuuuuu
Yes!! I'm accepting requests!
Specially since I can't exactly write the Loving You sequel since my sibling broke the laptop. It's in the repair shop still.
So I'm writing on my phone again.
2nd crossover since the way the reader goes to the village is different.
As a Goddess, you've learned how to be adored. Specially since you have two older brothers and an older sister. Being the youngest is not easy because all of them were overprotective as hell.
Surprisingly, one of them is more lenient than the others. That was Thor. He was also the one who encouraged you to join the Avengers. And you did. On impulse.
And you killed Thanos too. In anger.
But now after the war for Earth is over. You've found yourself more bored than usual... You should be glad that there's peace but damn it. You need to do something or else it'll kill you inside.
"Damn it." You cursed for nth time that day since you just spent hours just looking at the ocean. It did make you calm... But damn were you itching for something to do.
"What's wrong, Y/N?" You look over to Hela. You were one of the reasons why she agreed to stay alive rather than to rule Asgard and die. You were also the one who convinced both Loki and Thor to keep her alive.
"I'm bored. I wanna go somewhere."
"Like a trip?" You hum then nod.
"A long one, perhaps."
"Where, exactly?" You roll your eyes.
"Hela. I'm over a thousand years old already! Stop being so overprotective! Damn it!" She sighs in defeat.
"Can I check in sometimes then?" You cross your arms and raise an eyebrow at her. She looks away.
"How often exactly?" She whistles. "Hela!"
"Fine! Once a month?" You growl.
"No! A year! Once a year! For fuck's sake! You don't even check in with Thor nor Loki!"
"I know! Because they're idiots! But you're my-" You stop her.
"Yes! I know! Little sister. For my sake, stop being overprotective... How would you even check in on me?" You mumble the last sentence but Hela still somehow heard.
"Phones?"
-
You crack your neck as you hike. Four years. It's been four years since you've been to this new world. And as you and Hela agreed on, she had only checked in on you four times.
"Whoa." You can't help but stop as you take in the view. It was amazing. You were on a mountain and decided on the edge. There were four places on this village that you stumbled upon.
"An Iron Tower??" You mumble as you get your binoculars and confirm that yes, it was an iron tower. You check the next place and smile. It was a house on a hill. You hum as you lay your eyes on the Water Wheel. "Hell yeah!!" You shout as you see the next place. It was a castle. You live on Earth now and Asgard was no more. And it's good, to be among your people... But you sometimes miss living in a castle. To have rooms so big that your siblings cannot find you. Where you know all the secret passageways and exits to every room.
You squeal then jump over the edge. Thankfully, your body could take it as you land with a thud. You dust yourself off as you look around the village. It was very lively and there were many people around. You see an entrance and tilt your head.
Was that the entrance to the castle? Someone notices you and chuckles.
"Hello, dear." You flinch and turn to the old lady. You bow slightly and greet back.
"Hello, ma'am." You were a Goddess, yes. You are adorned not only by asgardians but people on Earth as well. It doesn't mean you don't know proper manners or how to be polite.
"Are you travelling here or looking to stay?" You scratch your head as you chuckle nervously.
"The jury's still out on that one, ma'am."
"There are four places that is owned by the four lords of the village."
"Lords??" You knew people in Europe still had titles and such. But still, it was weird to call someone a lord when you're a Goddess.
"Yes. The Iron Tower belongs to Lord Heisenberg. The House On The Hill belongs to Lady Beneviento. The Water Wheel belongs to Lord Moreau. And finally, the Castle whose gate you were eyeing belongs to the Lady Dimitrescu."
"Dimitrescu." You mumble then look at the gate again. And as if on cue, every hair on your body stands up and you turn. You see a man with a hat who smirks at you.
"A foreigner! What joy! You just arrived haven't you?" You nod.
"I'm Heisenberg. Just call me Karl." You raise an eyebrow at his offered hand.
"I thought you were a lord? Are you sure you don't want me t-"
"Just Karl is fine... after all, you're a guest." You sigh.
"Okay, Karl. I have to go then."
"Oh? Already exploring?"
"Yep." You smirk. "To that Castle, to be precise."
A/N:
Another crossover... I just love these. damn.
No ship yet...
Comments and thoughts are always welcome!
Thank you for reading!
If you can, please buy me a coffee.

The Snyder Cut: Headcanons (mostly of the tickly nature)
Bruce Wayne (Batman) ~ Batfleck, my love
He’s such a lover boy, and I can say that though I don’t exactly know how to explain what I mean. You just gotta understand.
He cares so strongly about EVERYONE. e v e r y o n e. Alfred, fucking loves the guy, jokes with him. The fucking “This is Alfred, I work for him.” MY MAN, STOP!
I think he just really wants to get along with everyone and wants everyone to get along in general.
But he lowkey crushes on Diana (at least in his mind, he’s keeping it lowkey, but we all see what’s happening)
I love the idea of this big hunk of a man getting soft with someone like Diana.
She makes him genuinely laugh this one time by saying something funny, and then they’re both laughing together.
Bruce definitely has one of those laughs where he throws his head back and shit and you can see his like Adam’s apple bobbing and everything.
But that’s if he’s really laughing.
And he has loud “HA”’s that are like really short but loud and then he kinda just snickers to himself for a while, holding his stomach.
And dude, the scene in freaking uhh… i think it’s BvS I’m not 100% (maybe i fucking imagined it who knows) where she like comes over to him and is fixing his wound….. tickle scenario hand picked from the gods right there
I can see a whole, “Woah!” from Bruce when Diana traces her fingers on some sensitive skin. And that Gal Godot smile is on her in an INSTANT.
Bruce will laugh if he’s with the right person. Like I headcanon that if he’s being tickled, he will laugh if it’s done by Diana or Barry, then like he’ll be forced to laugh if it’s Clark bc he overpowers the poor bat, but then he just has these hilarious bouts of angry growls and chuckles if Arthur is going after him.
I can’t even write about Batfleck being a ler because I will literally explode, so I’m done here
(((((butseriouslyifanyonewantstotalklerbatfleckwithmehmuplz)))))
Diana Prince (Wonder Woman)
I know the GIF isn’t from ZSJL but just let me live, ok? (Also I couldn’t find the one of Gal wiggling her fingers YOU KNOW THE ONE I’M TALKING ABOUT)
First off, Gal is the most horrible queen of giggles. I’ve seen those blooper reels. My god, girl, how do you keep getting hired?
SHE HAS SUCH A BIG SMILE IT’S LIKE THE ROCK IDK HOW THEIR TEETH AND MOUTH GET SO WIDE LOOKING
Diana will start tickle fights without a doubt.
She’s already very trustful and I also feel pretty handsy with people, especially those she may feel close to. So if she’s playful, you best watch out.
Her favorite targets are Bruce and Barry. I will not take criticism. Diana attacking Barry and reducing him to panicky shrieky laughs is my #1 thought. It’s not even living rent free, I’m commissioning it to be there.
Diana is one to laugh with her victims. She will wreck them and have a great time doing so.
She’ll be ticklish if she wants to be, but it isn’t often she gets pinned and tickled or anything like that.
The guys try to stay away from her or not go after her with tickles for fear of retaliation.
AQUAMAN, CYBORG, SUPERMAN, AND THE FLASH UNDER THE CUT
Arthur Curry (Aquaman)
So…. my man isn’t really ticklish. I really don’t think he is, I feel like his Atlantean genes make his skin a special kind of hard, if that makes sense?
THAT BEING SAID ARTHUR IS THE BIGGEST LER OMGGG
He’ll try and act all cool and ‘whatever’ around the League cuz that’s kind of his persona.
But he slowly gets to like them more and more and his playful side starts to come out.
He’ll tickle Barry out of pure annoyance. Like if Barry makes any kind of comment, he’ll just point his finger out and get that glint in his eye and Barry is sprinting for the hills.
Here’s my favorite headcanon: Arthur will tickle Bruce because he knows it pisses him off when he does it. Bruce will fight back and keep Arthur in his sights at all time and curse and growl at him. And Arthur thinks it’s hilarious.
Arthur as a ler will taunt and tease until the cows come home
“Huh, big guy? What’s that? Ahawww that’s what I thought!... Not so fast/tough/etc. now!... I will wreck you.”
Victor Stone (Cyborg)
Unfortunately… not ticklish. :(
But this boy has the sweetest laugh you will ever hear, and I will die on that hill.
Now that he has friends (superpowered friends, no less), he can slowly come alive and be himself.
I can see Victor not getting involved in tickle fights at first, but at a certain point he’ll be all like, “Okay, step aside so we can do this right” and just PIN THE SHIT OUT OF WHOEVER IS BEING TICKLED. His extra robot arms are killer!
Okay, when he laughs for the first time in front of the group, there’s that cliche moment of pause where everything stops and everyone just stares and listens to him. It’s so rare to hear him laugh because the poor kid barely even smiled around them in the beginning.
He SMIRKS
Now hear me out on this…
Okay, so half a face. Great. Weird. We love it. But you can see all of mischievous Victor when the guy SMIRKS. You see his eye squint and you can swear his robot eye gets a gleam of a different color.
Wait honestly as I was writing that, the thought of Victor’s eye and like his apparatus changing color based on his mood is golden.
Me sitting here, lowkey wishing Victor’s robot body had some kind of cuddly mode like Baymax lmfaoooo
Like the defense mode his body went into when he was around resurrected Supes, but for cuddles and being cute.
Clark Kent (Superman)
I was debating even including any headcanons for Superman bc I don’t care about him much, honestly.
I am v happy they kept in the whole ‘him staring at Flash through the speed storm’ scene bc I laughed so hard at that the first time i saw Josstice League in the theater.
Also I didn’t really like the black superman costume??? I’m not a comic buff, so I’m assuming that’s why. I am like the one person who missed the color from the Josstice League cut. Don’t miss the stupid red sky in the finale, but I miss every other ounce of color that was just SUCKED right out of the Snyder Cut.
Clark and Bruce are besties now, I don’t make the rules. Bruce bought the man his house back. By buying the bank. He’ll take care of him.
And I’ve always simped for those two ever since BvS, bc I’ve already written like two fics where they tickle each other.
Clark overpowering Bruce to tickle the shit out of him makes me so happy lol. Big strong boy Batfleck looking thiccc over here… but put him against Superman and he’s donezo. Because as mentioned earlier, I do think Bruce is pretty ticklish.
But Clark can have his lee side when he’s feeling nice
He’s got that mighty chuckle, almost like how Thor might laugh.
And he really likes getting involved in tickle fights with the League. He knows all of them are sorta afraid of him on the daily anyway, but have that power added to a tickle fight and it’s fun as hell.
He’s gotten taken down by them ONCE. And I mean exactly (1) O N C E.
They all teamed up. Bing, bang, boom. Pinned him to the floor and they each took an area of skin and fucking SQUEEZED AND WIGGLED. They were trying to incapacitate him as quickly as possible. And dangummit, he laughed a lot! Like Clark realized just how ticklish he could feel if he wanted to feel it.
And don’t even get me started on Lois, he’s big on getting her to giggle and she likes toying with him and running her hands all over his body (bc who wouldn’t?)
Barry Allen (The Flash)
I waited to write about Barry last because I have so much to say about this character....
and then I fell asleep and waited until the next day to write anything down about him so now I’m totally not in the mood and I forgot all the salient points I was planning on making.
fuck you, michelle.
I got a weird relationship with this character. He was mad annoying in the Josstice League. Thank goodness they trimmed his bad jokes down.
But now....
when he got hurt at the end and he was like crying and shit oh my god I wanted to hug him
His character got so... good
And I’m now at the right age where I can think about myself in a relationship with this character with no changes or shame
We both out here trying to find that one good job after college and everything
BARRY JUST WANTS FRIENDS, GUYS
HE’S THAT CUTE
And then he got this whole found family schtick with the Justice League!!! Lookit him!!! Thriving!
He has total little brother energy
like, pesky little brother. Bothers everyone, looks over people’s shoulders while they’re deep in thought or concentrating on something.
Asks a lot of questions.
All the more reason for the gang to want to tickle the shit out of him.
Barry just reads like a super ticklish lee. Like his whole character.
Maybe touch starved because he said he needed friends, and I don’t think he has siblings??? (sorry if i’m wrong about that, comic fans)
I already named some of my fav headcanons about him getting tickled by like Diana and such, and I’m sticking with it.
Barry does flee. He runs away with super speed.... but sometimes he just kinda wants the tickles so he lets them have at him.
The chase is all part of the fun with tickling Barry, though. That’s what makes it so entertaining. And Barry isn’t afraid to be a little shit about it either. He will super-speed around his pursuers and poke their sides and tickle them back really quickly before they even know what’s happening.
Barry doesn’t exactly hold back his laughter lol. He’ll protest and scream and squirm like crazy, but once he’s actually tickled, he loses it.
Pure boy. With funny ass facial expressions.
And it really doesn’t help that I never realized just how hot Ezra Miller is, even though I heard he’s not a great person irl. Oh well.
THAT’S ALL FOLKS!
Please please let me know if y’all have things to add, to squee over, to question me about... please. anything. i’m here for you. thanks for reading, guys!

some spare immortal family halloween costume hcs for a poor soul? 🥺🥺🦇
HEGEL💕💕💕 asjddjfd I LOVE YOU
some inspo taken from @nilefreemans halloween party fic
First nile is the only one who has grown up with halloween, and as i’ve seen the way the united states does halloween is just so much MORE than in other countries, so the others probably haven’t celebrated it much in any kind of way
And nile LOVES halloween, grew up making costumes with her mom and brother and she loves the classic costumes, ghosts, witches, vampires, etc. and she is GOOD at making them and finding just the right things to make them
Except now nile has a resource she didn’t have previously, these ancient ass motherfuckers
She’s a HUGE fucking art/art history nerd, and now at her disposal are four immortals who have a combined over 8,000 years of life on this earth so her costume potential has just skyrocketed
Nile now has the opportunity to dress as any and all historical art figures she wants with COMPLETE accuracy (assuming at least some of the guard met that person - which they’ve definitely met lots of them)
Nicky and joe are absolute GIDDY with the idea of matching costumes, and a serious thank you to kayla for blessing us with the image of them wearing matching abba costumes
But also imagine nicky and joe doing the thing where one of them is an artist and the other goes as one of their works, like van gogh and his self portrait OR pls imagine joe going as michelangelo and nicky going as the david (because listen nicky was the inspiration behind it) or also alexandre cabanel and nicky as the painting of lucifer (it’s the EYES)
But also: decade costumes. They love to reminisce about old fashions and what the world was like and what they were doing at the time, and you know joe probably has several pieces of clothing from various eras tucked away somewhere so when they get the change they go FULL on with the costumes, down to the last detail
However i will die on the hill that nicky LOVES pun costumes, like imagine them as ‘ice ice baby’ with their cat (cattulus because i remember the cat hcs hegel lol) as the baby
Also pls imagine them or andy and quynh as gomez and morticia addams
Quynh goes dramatic as hell, full on makeup and prosthetics. Like nile, she’s a halloween QUEEN, and loves the sexy scary route, vampires, ghostly warrior, zombies, etc. whatever it is she will KILL it. Loves the scary face makeup with the scratches and blood everywhere
She also probably loves the holiday and loves to scare the rest of the guard, so far she’s scared nicky the most though they now are teaming up to get booker
Loves anything that will make andy SPEECHLESS and anything where she can wear heels
Nile and quynh are a force to be reckoned with about halloween, they prepare MONTHS in advance, buying what they need and taking the time to make their costumes perfect and they WILL show you the fuck up at any party with their skill and beauty
Andy does like the holiday but she will only wear something where she can carry a weapon, bonus if the weapon is her axe but she’ll settle for a sword
Loves to do pirates or warriors, and like nile will occasionally take the historical route and go as joan or arc or artemisia or the like and gets quynh to go as Lady Triệu (which who is to say that wasn’t her in the first place)
Gets at least a little drunk wherever they go and will sword fight someone, too bad for the other person for not realizing her sword is real though
Quynh always helps her with her costume, but andy prefers a more relaxed approach and will sometimes just choose old armor she has and go with that
Booker is the wild card of the bunch
He’ll act like this is all silly but LOVES watching everyone dress up and have fun
Some years he’ll be lazy and throw on jeans and a cowboy hat and that’ll be it, one year he went a little wild and did a brown leather jacket and was indiana jones (which i’d love to see)
He’ll try many times to see what he can do with the clothes he has, instead of going for a whole costume - even going as james bond with a suit he had
A favorite of his is going as famous athletes, soccer or american football, HOCKEY (he’s fucking BUILT for it ok)
Also i firmly believe he went as batman one year in a full batsuit and he LOVED it
Lykon’s gonna be included too, but i think he’d be relatively laid back about his costume. Not going quite as lazy as booker, but he choose simple over the all the makeup and stuff. I think he’d love to do SUPER cheesy classic costumes, a sheet for a ghost, big fangs and a cloak for a vampire, etc. or sometimes as a surfer or something where he can wear hawaiian shirts because i think he would’ve loved them. He mostly just wants to have a good time with his family and focus more on that
now we can also talk group costumes in which i am extremely partial to them going as the scooby doo gang, because this is one of my fav fanarts and nicky going as scooby is the funniest shit ever
Also you just KNOW they went as the avengers or star wars characters or some shit at least at one point in their lives (idk anything about star wars so)
For your consideration: quynh as black widow, andy as hulk, nicky as the winter soldier (the HAIR and the EYES), joe as nomad steve or falcon, booker as thor (they would all make so much fun of his wig because of course they’re gonna make him do the long hair look), and nile as the scarlett witch because she's that POWERFUL

The Tower: The Queen of Asgard - 16
The Tower: The Queen of Asgard An Avengers Fanfic
Series Masterlist PREVIOUS //
Pairing: Avengers x OFC, Bruce Banner x Bucky Barnes x Clint Barton x Wanda Maximoff x Steve Rogers x Natasha Romanoff x Tony Stark x Thor x Sam Wilson x OFC (Elly Cooper)
Word Count: 3613
Warnings:
Synopsis: The twins are now three and while the Avengers know that Clint and Thor are the biological father’s none of them know or care which blond, blue-eyed baby is related to which man. When Riley gets the power to control wind and it becomes evident that she is the heir to the Asgardian throne, Elly, Steve, Thor, and Tony take the twins to Asgard to train her.
Not every Asgardian is happy with their king’s choice of consort, nor the impurity of the heir’s blood. While others expect Thor to make things more official. What’s clear is, the role of Queen of Asgard is not easily filled.
Author’s Note: Written with @avengerscompound (insert witty comment here.)
Chapter 16: Reunited
Our moment of relaxed contentment didn’t last too long. By the end of the same day, Thor had come clean about the Fenestare, which had led to a long argument about whether it was okay to even participate in a battle to the death, how dangerous it was, and how it put the rest of us at risk too.
Tony wanted to leave. Even the tiniest risk to the kids’ safety and he was on edge. And so far there had been a lot of those. Steve wasn’t so sure if we should leave. If Thor was so determined to do this, he wanted to be there to support him. He was very vocal about the fact that he did not think Thor should do it on moral terms.
Nothing was changing Thor’s mind though, so we spent the following day, highly strung as he prepared for the fight. Tony dragged Steve to the lab to finish the bots and Thor had made me and the kids follow him around all day. They were tired and cranky as we went back to his royal chambers. Pietro was curled up in my arms and Riley was throwing herself around in Thor’s rather dramatically when Sif stormed in.
“Why was I informed, immediately upon arrival that there is going to be a Fenestare?” She asked, squaring up to Thor and poking him in the chest. “It’s like this place doesn’t function when I’m not here.”
I couldn’t even pretend I cared about what Sif had to say about the Fenestare. I was too excited she was back. If she was back it meant the others might be here too. “Did you bring them?”
“Yes,” Sif said. “I took them to your chambers. They are settling in.”
I whined and looked at Thor. He handed me Riley and pressed a kiss to my forehead. “Volstagg, could you please escort the Lady Elise to the others.”
“Of course,” Volstagg said and gestured to the door.
“And I will stay here and attempt to slap some sense into our King,” Sif said.
I followed Volstagg down to our chambers carrying both the kids and when I stepped inside I found them all looking high strung and pacing the room.
“You’re going to need to explain what’s going on fast,” Wanda said. “I’m starting to lose them.”
“Hey, hey, hey,” I said putting the kids down. They both immediately started bouncing and jogging on the spot like they wanted to run to the rest of their family but couldn’t decide who they should run to first. “Why do you guys always have to go so negative?”
“Because an alien shows up, demands we all come here, and the mind-reader immediately jumps on board,” Natasha said folding her arms in front of her. “That’s suspicious.”
“Can one of you indicate to your kids to come to them, they’re about to explode,” I said. “The rest of you take a seat.”
“Who wants Daj?” Wanda asked crouching down and opening her arms. Riley charged over to her and slammed into her. I crouched and pointed to Clint and Pietro ran over to him and immediately started scaling him.
Almost everyone took a seat in the couches. Bucky, Natasha, and Bruce couldn’t seem to settle though, and the three of them kept pacing the room.
“Okay… so, there’s been a little descension here that Thor was unaware of the extent of. A section of his people believe he was too young for the job, but originally there was no other choice but him or Loki and he was the preference. So they would make him jump through hoops and he’d do it. Only now a faction claiming there are two older siblings. They believe that the firstborn son should be ruling and not Thor and are causing some trouble. A few things have happened.” I explained as I sat forward on the couch.
“There’s a what?” Natasha asked.
“Brother. Though there has been no actual sign of him. There is a claim he was kidnapped and raised by the rulers of one of the other realms in the hope to put him in charge of Asgard and then they would rule the nine realms.” I answered.
“You said some things happened?” Bucky asked. He was flexing his metal hand and looked as close to being the soldier as I’d seen him in a long time.
“There was an attempt to kidnap and murder Riley and I,” I said. “A guard and a woman from that other realm attacked us.”
“And where are they now?” Bucky asked in a completely flat and rather terrifying tone.
“In prison. Loki has been dealing with them.”
“I want to see them.” Bucky seethed looking at the door.
“That is not a good idea,” Loki said, coming into the room followed by Fandral.
“It’s also not why you’re here,” I added.
Bucky wheeled back to me. “What? There’s more?”
“Yeah,” I said with a nod. “It’s about the hoops he’s having to jump. Right now he’s preparing for a fight to the death he has to participate in. Though that is also not why you’re here. When we got here, we were almost forced to … well, marry him. He has to be bonded with someone to rule if he has a child. Without telling him or us they were going to force the ceremony. He managed to get them to give us two weeks. I couldn’t do it without you guys at least knowing about it. But… and I guess I’m proposing for him right now. He’d like it to be all of you.”
“A what?” Natasha asked. “And a what?”
“Deathmatch. Wedding.” I said counting them off on my fingers. “And -” I took a breath and huffed, blowing my hair off my brow. “- the thing about the wedding is… it will mean our life expectancies change. They will all be pulled in line with Thor’s.”
“Can you boil that down just a wee bit for my dumb brain?” Clint asked as he cuddled with Pietro.
“The ceremony is called bonding. It doesn’t change the rules of the relationship. It just means we are bonded to Thor. And each other. We will have a special connection. For those of us like me who are going to get the usual 78 years most likely, we will now get closer to 5000. For Bucky, Steve, maybe you B, and you Nat. You’ll live significantly less. Plus Thor will be promised to you. You won’t ever have to worry about being alone. So… we don’t all have to do it. But he has to do it with someone. If you don’t want to that’s okay, but we all need to agree on who does and if that’s okay.”
“Is there a place I can go to punch things?” Bucky asked in a low voice.
I looked over at Loki, but Volstagg stepped forward. “Let me take you to the training arena.” He said. “Is there anyone else that would like to work out their tension?”
Natasha raised her hand. Volstagg indicated to the door with his ax and the three of them headed out together.
Sam moved over and wrapped his arm around me and I melted into him. “I missed you guys.”
“How have you been doing, sweetie?” Wanda asked rubbing my leg.
“I guess you could say I’ve been a little bit stressed,” I said.
Sam rubbed my arm and kissed the top of my head. “That’s totally understandable, princess.” He said. “You’re safe and we’re all here.”
“What about you, my darlings? Have you been having fun?” Wanda asked the kids.
“Uncle Woki has a big wibwawy,” Pietro answered.
“Yeah? How big?” Clint asked.
Pietro stretched his arms up over his head. “Is big. So many.”
“Piet, you should tell daddy about what Fandral has been teaching you,” I said.
Pietro stood up on Clint’s thighs and started jumping. “Daddy! Daddy!” He said excitedly and then started babbling so fast that it was hard to make out any words.
“Buddy. Buddy, slow down.” Clint said, holding Pietro’s hands.
“Dere’s a pony, daddy. I rided da pony.” He squealed.
“Oh, really?” Clint asked.
“Fandral was teaching him to ride while Thor taught Riley how to use her powers,” I explained.
“That sounds like a lot of fun, buddy,” Clint said, and Pietro slammed himself against him and nuzzled into his neck. “So… the immortality thing.”
“I don’t know what to do. I worry about him.” I said poking Pietro.
“Well, maybe he falls in love with an Asgardian,” Clint said. “Or maybe Earth Science can cure diseases.”
“Or maybe we have to watch him age and then die and we’ll just be stuck like this,” I said, frowning.
“Well, yeah,” Clint said and kissed the top of Pietro’s head. “I dunno. Still don’t really see it as a problem.”
“You want to do it?” I asked. “Just like that?”
“Why not?”
“I don’t know,” I said, furrowing my brow. “It’s huge. It means a lot.”
“Why don’t you talk us through it, honey?” Sam asked.
“We’ll have to watch everyone we know die. That means probably Piet. Hill, Coulson, Scott, Rhodey, Clarke.” I said. “It means that all the shit we deal with on Earth could get worse because we will always just be there. We might stop even being able to relate to people or form proper bonds with them. They might start thinking we’re gods too.”
“Where did that fear even come from?” Sam asked.
“I don’t know. Anne Rice?”
Sam chuckled and Clint shook his head. “So, fiction? Have you tried actually talking to someone who has experience with that kind of thing?” Clint asked.
“What like Thor? The god of thunder?” I snarked.
“Well, what about that guy?” Clint asked, gesturing to Fandral.
“I’m afraid I’m not a good example,” Fandral said with a small bow. “I have lived a normal life for what is expected on Asgard. I have seen my elders die but I haven’t had to outlive any of my peers. At least not in terms of watching them grow old. I’ve lost friends in battle.”
“Oh,” Clint said.
“There is a chance that young Loki here may outlive us all. The stories say there are celestials who existed before existence. There is only one known case of their death and the skull is now the homeworld of many people. Then came the All fathers. The Ice Giants came with them. They were violent and burned a path through the universe before them. Then Odin was born of the Allfathers. That was when the universe began to settle. Other worlds grew and their own life forms formed with their own life spans. But here on Asgard we live thousands of years and are revered as gods.”
“Okay, but would you choose to outlive some people by millennia if you could?” Clint asked.
Fandral approached us and took a seat next to Loki. “That seems inevitable. People die in war. I outlived the Valkyrie. My parents.”
“The what?” Clint asked.
“Valkyrie? The warrior women?” Fandral asked with a mixture of shock and disbelief. “You haven't heard of them?” When Clint shook his head, Fandral sat up straight and clapped his hands. “A story for the little prince and princess. Once upon a time, Odin was stretching his rule over the Nine Realms. There was much fighting within them and he wished to restore peace and order. He took with him an army of women who rode upon winged horses. They were the most formidable army in all the realms. All who they went up against fell. Until one day there was a great battle and they were all slain.” He explained. “I was but a child when they existed.” He leaned over and poked Pietro in the stomach. “Your father wished to be a Valkyrie when he grew up.”
“You get me a horsie wif wings?” Pietro asked.
Fandral chuckled. “That might be possible, little prince. But first, we learn on the non-winged kind.”
“Are they a different species?” Clint asked.
“That’s right,” Fandral said with a nod. “Longer lived and stronger than the typical horse on Asgard, but no match for Odin’s former steed.”
Clint furrowed his brow like he was mulling over the story. “Why would wings make them live longer?”
I snorted. “Correlation, not causation, Clint.”
“If I were to guess, I would say it was because the magic runs deeper through them,” Fandral added and turned to Loki. “What do you think, dear?”
“I think it would be a shame if I had to put a knife into your eye,” Loki said rolling his eyes and picking at his nails. “I just cleaned my blades.”
Fandral chuckled and poked Pietro in the belly. “Now, now. Your uncle is always so violent.”
Pietro giggled and wiggled in Clint’s lap.
“Where are the boys?” Sam asked.
“Thor is being chewed out by Sif. I think Steve and Tony are in the lab.” I said.
Like I had summoned him, the door opened and Thor came in with Sif, followed by the chef and his carts of food.
“Woah, magic,” I said as Riley wriggled out from Wanda’s arms and ran over to the chef.
Riley bounced on her feet as she watched the chef start sorting things out for everyone. There was a lot more food than previously, but then there were also a lot more of us.
As he was setting up, Steve, Tony, and Hogun came in.
“Oh, hey, the rest of them,” Sam said.
“Where’s Bucky and Nat?” Steve asked, looking around.
“Punching stuff,” Clint answered.
“You should give everyone their gifts,” I said as Steve scowled.
“Sure,” Tony said and went into the bedroom to find the bag.
“Sif, did you talk Thor out of it?” I asked.
“I’m afraid not, my lady,” she said. “I did try.”
Tony returned with the bag and pulled out the bow. “This is for you, Legolas.”
Clint took it and his eyes went wide. “It’s so light. Feels like I’m holding a pencil.”
“It is like mine,” Sif said. “It has a perfect balance and tension. You will like it.”
Clint tested the balance and I took the bag off Tony and dug around in it pulling out the vambrace. “I picked these for you,” I said giving them to Sam.
He took them and made a soft, pleased sound. “These are nice.” He said turning them over.
“I thought they’d match your wings if you wanted to wear them. Or they’re just pretty. So you can put them on a shelf to look at.” I said.
“They’re perfect. Thank you, princess.” He said and pulled me close nipping at my neck.
I giggled and leaned into him, passing the bag back to Tony. He went back and pulled out the gift for Bruce and gave them to him pulling him into his arms and kissing him softly before he pressed the decorative case into Bruce’s hands.
Bruce opened them and smiled for the first time since I’d seen him here. “These look interesting.”
“Thought you’d like them, Bear,” Tony said and nuzzled at Bruce’s neck.
Steve took the bag off Tony and took out Natasha and Bucky’s gifts and put them on a shelf out of the kids’ reach before bringing the whole bag over and giving it to Wanda. “Everything else in there is for you, darling.” He said.
Wanda looked at him suspiciously and then opened the bag and looked inside. “Why is it so big?”
“Some weird magic,” Steve said.
She reached in and brought out a handful of rings, necklaces, and bracelets. “There’s so much.” She said, beginning to separate each piece.
“The lady who made them wanted you to have all of them. There is a lot more in there.” Steve said, leaning down and pressing a kiss to the top of her head.
“It’s all so beautiful,” Wanda said, smiling. “Thank you.”
Steve gave her shoulder a squeeze. “You’re very welcome.”
“Lunch is served.” The chef said.
“Is good,” Riley said from her spot at the table. A plate was already in front of her and her mouth was completely full.
“How’d you get food, bug?” Clint asked getting up with Pietro on his hip.
Riley pointed at the chef with a piece of food she was holding in her fist. “Dis guy.”
“I did hand her a plate.” The chef said. “Did I overstep, my lord?”
“Is good,” Riley said. “You my fwiend.”
The chef chuckled. “Thank you, princess. You’re my friend too.”
“I assure you, Clinton. Magnus has been working for the throne since I was a small boy. I trust him completely.”
“Even with what happened?” Clint asked.
“Yes. Magnus is loyal to us.” He said. “And a member of our household.”
Magnus bowed and took leave of the room as everyone got up and helped themselves to food. Pietro climbed up onto Clint’s head and ate things that were passed up to him as Clint sat at the table with Steve, Sam, Tony, and Bruce. Wanda and I ate at the couch with Loki while Thor seemed to pace and pick at things.
“Come here, human cat. Curl back up with me.” Wanda said, shifting so she could eat with me tucked into her side.
I curled in and picked at the food on my plate. “What would the bonding ceremony be like? What can we expect?” Wanda asked.
“Oh, we get powers. But we don’t know what they’ll be until it’s happened.” I said.
“I’ll have extra powers? Like lightning?” Wanda asked.
“They will be a reflection of both who you are and how you see yourself in your family,” Loki explained. “For example, someone who was very protective of their family might be able to create a shield that encompasses them.”
“Oh. I see. I wonder what that would mean for each of us.” Wanda said.
Loki shrugged. “Hopefully it renders this one mute.” He said gesturing to me.
I tried to stifle a laugh, ended up snorting and then broke down into peals of silent giggles.
Loki did his best to ignore me completely. “The ceremony itself involves a literal binding. A cord will be used to bind you to each other. For the number of you, I imagine it will look like a large web. Magic will be passed through it and you will take a sort of vision quest. In it, you will find where you belong within the relationship and your family. If the bonds are true and good, then you will be granted your new gift.”
“Wow. Okay.” Wanda said and took a drink as she seemed to mull over Loki’s words.
“Does she always eat like this?” Loki asked waving her hand vaguely at Riley.
I looked over and saw Riley completely covered in food and shoveling more into her mouth. “Oh, yes. She’s a hungry beast, aren’t you bug?”
She roared in response which made Wanda start giggling.
“Who raised this child to act like this?” Bruce asked.
“We did?” I said with a shrug.
“I think she needs to be recalibrated.” Sam joked.
“Daddy,” Riley said, sternly.
“Oh. You asked for it now.” Sam said, getting up.
“No, daddy!” She squealed.
“Yes, bug.” He said, grabbing her around the waist and flipping her upside down.
She flailed and squealed, kicking her legs excitedly. A soft wind began to swirl around the room.
“Just a few more minutes.” Sam teased. “You’re almost fixed.”
“Riley, control that wind, please,” Thor said. She continued kicking and squealing but the wind died right off.
“Huh,” Sam said, flipping her back over and putting her down.
“Again, daddy!” She squealed, jumping up and down.
“She got control of it after only a couple of days?” Sam asked.
Thor shook his head as Riley continued to jump up and down, tugging on Sam’s shirt. “Only sometimes. It’s important to remind her when it’s out of her control though.”
Sam caught her midjump and spun her upside down again. She squealed in delight. It was such a pure noise and she was so happy. As loud as it was with everyone here I felt at peace. Even Bruce seemed to have started to relax a little. The only stand out person, who was not beginning to calm was Thor. Time was ticking down to the Fenestare, and the stress of it seemed to be seeping out of his pored.
“Thor, are you okay?” I asked.
“As I can be.” He said in a strained tone.
“Do you want to join Wanda and I for cuddles?” I asked.
“Yes. I would most appreciate that.” He said moving over to us.
“You know he is as heavy as a horse right?” Loki asked.
“I have been under him many times, yes.” I deadpanned as I opened my arms and Thor collapsed down into them.
Loki shook his head. “I don’t know what I expected to happen when I said that.” He said. “I am old enough to know better.”
“You did kind of walk into it.” I agreed as I began to caress Thor’s hair and neck.
Riley came over and climbed up on Thor, draping herself over him like a cat and closing her eyes.
“Do you think she understands what’s happening?” Sam asked.
“I don’t know,” I said.
“I hope she doesn’t,” Bruce said, his voice slightly strained.
Thor shifted and closed his eyes a little, and it wasn’t long before both father and daughter were snoring lightly in the pile on my lap.

The Right Partner, pt 1
a little Loki/reader fic I started for my pal @hopelessromanticspoonie and of course it’s too long for a one shot because I AM INCAPABLE OF ONE SHOTS. It’s a sickness.
The Avengers sure knew how to throw a party, you thought as you descended the stairs into the central hall of the Smithsonian. It helped that Tony Stark was richer than God and could hire a museum like this on the turn of a dime.
You’d been working as a PR for the team for six months now. Your job mostly consisted of monitoring the Twitter feed and making sure Thor didn’t have too much access to Instagram - he really liked posting inappropriate pictures, not realising that the world would see them.
Thank God Jane spent too much time working to engage much with social media.
The others weren’t much trouble. Clint was sweet, completely in love with his wife and kids, wrapped up in battling kid-locked devices, he understood social media and all its dangers.
Tony was the usual loudmouth but he listened when you put a monetary figure on anything. You mostly dealt with him through Pepper. She was some kind of saint.
“Hey, girl.” Natasha slinked over to you with two glasses in her hands. She wore a painted on crimson gown that fishtailed to her legs. You assessed the dress, thinking that she likely had two, no, maybe three knives sewn into that thing. Just in case.
“Tony’s pulled out all the stops, huh?” you muttered, thanking her for the glass of fizz as she passed you.
Natasha rolled her eyes. “You should have seen Pepper’s birthday party. There was an actual blimp.”
“No kidding.”
You laughter together. “To tonight.” Nat clinked her glass against yours, then wandered further into the room to explore, and stopped to talk to Maria Hill, who wore a sensational short black cocktail dress and what had to be five inch heels. That she could probably turn a perfect somersault in.
It got depressing, living with superheroes, sometimes.
Maria and Nat made a beeline for the waiters circulating with wine and canapés, but you hung back by one of the decorated bay trees. The central hall smelled, not as it usually did, of sweets and perfume and the plastic of kids’ toys, but of something other, something.... almost otherworldly. Tony had outdone himself. The space smelled of magic, of anticipation.
Of course you knew why that was.
You were waiting for him.
And when some whisper of sixth sense made you turn her head, and the crowd parted to reveal a tall, lean man in a charcoal suit, your heart leapt into your throat.
You didn’t remember moving towards him, but your feet must have made the motions, because you found herself looking up into his forest green eyes, darkened by the softened light in the hall.
Hungrily your gaze ate him up. You’d never seen him in a suit before; but then you had never seen a man look this good in one – you’d never seen a man own a suit like Loki did this one.
When he looked like this, it was obvious he wasn’t human. No human looked like him, his face a symphony of planes and angles, his dark hair framing cheekbones to die for, his poet’s mouth always making you think of sin.
“Hey,” you said, trying for nonchalance.
“Good evening.” His eyes flicked behind you briefly, and you turned to see Thor some feet away, making an obvious thumb up gesture. You chuckled.
Loki rolled his eyes. “My brother, ever subtle.”
You’d spoken with the Asgardian Prince a few times since he’d been allowed out of his cage by Tony. He’d even - under very close supervision by Cap - helped out on a few off-planet missions, successful one.
The jury was still out, but you liked him. He said what he thought, never pulled punches. He was acerbic and witty and sometimes he gazed at you, the fire snapping in his eyes making heat stir up in your belly.
“Loki, I-”
The chamber orchestra on the stage - really, only Tony fucking Stark could just hire an entire orchestra for his birthday - struck up a waltz. Loki held out a hand, his palm offered. “Dance with me?”
You hesitated. He looked dark and dangerous and his voice was oh, so lyrical, and you wanted to climb him like a tree. “I didn’t know you knew how to waltz.”
His gaze locked with yours, his eyes dancing with merriment. “We do have dancing in Asgard.”
You passed your empty glass off to a waiter, then let him lead, falling into the steps of the dance, other couples slowly whirling around the two of you, the orchestra punctuated by the swish of dresses and the click of heels. “This is… nice.”
“A word you do not associate with me, judging by your tone.”
“It’s hard to equate destroying New York with “nice,”” you admitted.
Loki sighed. “As we know, I was…. Not myself during that time. I agree that I will never be, as that man child Stark terms in, a big cuddly care bear, whatever in the Nine Realms that is, but I believe I am making progress.”
“You are.”
He tilted his head, a little like a dog would when confused. “You think so. But then, you’re different. Special.”
You felt a flush creep up her neck as they turned in the dance’s slow circular movements. Loki was so tall, and solid and lean. A fantasy come to life in your arms. “Thanks. I guess. How did you get this suit? Surely Tony didn’t give it you?”
Anyone with eyes knew Loki looked good enough to eat even in his ridiculous helmet and green and black get up. In Armani, the open white shirt flirting with a triangle of his chest, he was fuckable sin personified. No way would Tony have added fuel to the walking fire that was Loki, Prince of Asgard.
He grinned, quick and wicked, making your heart thump. “I have my sources, kitten.”
You laughed. “Of course, you do. At this point, I don’t think anything at all would surprise me.”
Loki turned you in his arms and you briefly saw Thor and Jane watching the two of you, undisguised interest on their faces. Thor looked like a walking fashion billboard in his navy suit, Jane a gorgeous pixie beside him in a fifties style silk dress, her hair scooped up with flowers.
“Reckon they’re taking bets?” you asked, smiling.
Loki dipped his head towards yours. “Do you care?”
You couldn’t think when he was this close. “No.”
The dance ended and you stood opposite each other, holding hands, your fingers interlaced. Noise and chatter and clinking glasses and music swirled around you, but your world and focus had narrowed to the unsaid words falling between your and Loki’s bodies.
You just wanted to be alone with him. To look into his bottomless green eyes and find out what you’d see reflected in their depths.
“Do you want to get out of here?” you whispered.

How did Marvel fuck up IW? That movie was gold and highly entertaining, had me on the edge of my seat the entire time... The ending wasn't pleasant off course, but honestly, it was brilliant cinema!
1. 90% of the movie was ruined by Loki’s death scene in the very beginning. I have talked multiple times about how stupid and full of plot holes that scene was, anyway, not to mention how pointless Loki’s death was in general. I’d link, but it’s 1am and I’m lazy, so you can take my word for it.
2. Speaking of Loki’s death, though, the Russos have gone back and forth on the reason for Loki’s death - first they say it’s sacrifice for Thor, then they say it’s his punishment for disobedience, then they say it’s the conclusion of his arc, to accept himself as Thor’s brother before he dies a hero, etc. They can’t seem to figure out why Loki really died, except that they didn’t know what to do with him and killing him is convenient.
3. Thanos’s motivation is stupid as fuck. For one thing, wiping out half of the population isn’t the logical solution to the problem. He could have used the Infinity Gauntlet to create more resources, or go back in time to before Titan died, or done any number of things that didn’t involve murdering half of the universe. He came to that particular solution because he likes murder and death and torment and torture (just look at what he did to Gamora and Nebula, whom he claimed as his children). The narrative ignores this and tries to paint Thanos as this sympathetic villain who “maybe has a point,” which is not only illogical but also kind of gross. Not to mention, the Russos said that the Snap got rid of half of the plants and animals, as well as people, anyway - meaning there is now exactly the same proportion of people to resources and Thanos accomplished absolutely nothing.
4. The movie is full of plot holes. Just to name a few: in Thor Ragnarok, Dr. Strange says he keeps a “watch list” of potential threats to Earth; in IW, he has no idea who Thanos is. Thanos tells Gamora that, by killing half of her planet, the remaining half of her people are now thriving, but the first GotG told us that Gamora was the last remaining member of her race. Where was the Hulk when Asgard was being slaughtered, and where did Loki disappear to for five whole minutes before he reappeared and died?
5. The narrative implies that Thanos truly loves Gamora, and that he was right to sacrifice her because it allowed him to get the Soul Stone and continue on his mission. Gamora says, “This isn’t love,” but the fact that Thanos does get the stone after killing her is the narrative saying that yes, this is love, the only way Thanos knows how but love, nonetheless. Which is ... really not okay, but other people have gone into much better meta and analysis on this than I can at the moment.
6. The entire Wanda and Vision relationship was poorly developed and dragged out far too long. In a movie about all of the superheroes coming together and the culmination of all of the characters at their disposal, they chose to focus a good portion of the plot on a couple that was, I’m sorry, boring. I didn’t care if Vision died because their relationship wasn’t fleshed out or built up at all. We’re just supposed to accept it as true love and feel bad for them.
7. The ending would have had much more impact if they weren’t so obviously going to bring back all of those characters, anyway. Like, they are literally filming Spiderman 2 right now - of course Peter Parker will be back. Of course Dr. Strange, T’Challa, Bucky, etc, will be back. They made such a big deal about the “stakes being so high” in this movie, but all the stakes led us to was a gratuitously tragic ending that everyone knows will be undone, anyway, so the only deaths that will stick will be Loki’s, Gamora’s, and Vision’s - aka, the only characters not killed by the Snap, and two out of three of those characters were killed by their abusers and somehow that’s okay.
8. I will grant you, the cinematography was good and the music was nice. Also, there were some funny parts, mostly thanks to the Guardians still being in character because James Gunn was able to have a hand in portraying them.
But, yeah. Marvel fucked it up. The last ten years of movies could have culminated in the most epic of epic villains, if the Russos hadn’t gotten sidetracked by wanting to replicate Loki’s popularity (and Kilmonger’s, later) by making Thanos sympathetic, if they hadn’t ditched the “courting Death” motivation, if they hadn’t gotten rid of Joss Whedon, if they hadn’t tried to literally replicate Steve’s plotline with Thor (Steve lost everything and that worked out okay, so let’s have Thor lose everything, too!), or if they had hired some writers who knew what the fuck they were doing. Marvel fucked up Infinity War, and this is the hill I’ll die on, I’m not changing my mind.
#asks#charlotte replies#charlotte bitches about iw#i was SO excited for this movie#you literally have no idea#but the russos+m&m just shit all over it#but that's just like my opinion man#sorry for the grumpy tone of this reply#i am still actually really upset about this#a nonny mouse

Chapter 14
"Okay, frost bite, want to run that by us again?" Tony asked, sitting in the common room with everyone else, except Natasha who had been banished to her room.
"We are going to get y/n, back." James said through clenched teeth.
"No, we understand that, but we just want to know why." Clint spoke up, leaning against the wall next a very large man, with long blonde hair.
"I must agree with Barton, Master Barnes, she seemed grateful that Natasha had brought her to the road before Loki and I came up." Thor bellowed, stroking his chin. Long gone was his wolf form, and next to him stood his brother, who's black hair was slicked back.
"I understand your hesitation, I do." James replied, sighing heavily.
"Look, it isn't very often that Bucky asks us of something, not like this. He has done so much for all of us, why are you questioning him?" Steve asked, looking around the family.
"Because, he has never asked us to walk into a building filled with hunters to bring back a woman who hates us, no offense, sir." Clint replied. "I mean, if he commands us, then yes I will go."
"Bucky ain't commanding anybody, you know that of all people, he's asking us to help him. Whether or not we go with him, he's going." Sam stated, standing next to Steve.
"All he wants his family at his back." Steve added.
"I'm in." Wanda spoke up from the corner she was sitting in, she stood and walked over to the trio of men on the opposite side of the room. "I like y/n, she's a kind person."
"If Wanda goes, then so do I." Vision spoke up and walked over as well.
"Fine, can't let the youngest have more ball then me." Clint stayed throwing his arms up in air. "I don't have anything better going on anyway."
"Brother?" Thor asked, slowly walking toward James and the other, Loki rolled his eyes and followed.
"At least there will be fresh meat." Loki stayed as he did.
Everyone turned to look at Tony, the man kicked himself off from the wall.
"Can't let you guys have all the fun, plus someone has to make sure that you guys don't get killed anyway." He said, trying to act nonchalant about the whole thing.
"Looks like we're breaking into Hydra." Steve smirked to James.
"You know, I've always wanted to do this." James grinned, his teeth slowly descending from his mouth.
——
"What do you mean genetics?" You asked, you felt your brows furrow as you stared at Rumlow.
"All of the ancient are descendants of other pure vampires, reproduction between one and one that was made can't happen. Once a human is turned everything in one dies, hence the need to feed on living blood, vampires can't make their own." He told you, slowly walking around behind you, making the hairs on your neck stand on end. "Also, a pure can't mate with a normal human, carrying a child that is half living takes a toll on the host and ends up killing the mother, whether she is the one that is human or vampire."
"And what does that have to do with genetics?" You asked, watching him out of the corner of your eyes as he came around the other side of you.
"Only other pures can smell their lure, those made can't smell it on the ancients." He told you.
"That's not true, I can smell James's lure." You admitted in your confusion. "And I'm not a vampire."
"You are not but you are." He shrugged. You opened your mouth to question him further but he continued on. "There is a dormant strain of the disease, and in every way you are human. Except one, you have the ability to give life to the dead."
You stepped back away from Rumlow, his words not sinking in. If you could smell James's lure, then no doubt you had one as well, and that meant, he knew what you were. It meant that was the reason he was keeping you hostage, Vision said that he had been made to make it James wasn't the only one like him wandering the earth.
"Oh my god." You breathed, staggering back as the words and their implications slowly started to sink in.
"It was very hard to follow the family lines for a while but we did manage to find you when you were toddler. You are our golden ticket, unfortunately your parents didn't want to give you up so, they had to die." He explained leaning against the desk, your eyes shot up to meet his. "We needed you, with you we can finally have control over the last remaining pure, the worlds perfect killing machine."
"No, this isn't what I want." You spoke up finally find your voice.
"Sweetheart, it's cute to think you have a choice. But I promise you once he finds out you’re here, he will come, most likely with his pack." Rumlow told you as the door behind you scraped opened, sending you further on edge. "Then we can kill the pack and keep him at bay."
"You're making a grave mistake, Rumlow, when Bucky and his family show there won't be anything you can do to stop them." You said as someone grasped ahold of you by the inside of your elbow. "And I hope to Hell I get see him kill you."
Forcefully you were dragged out of the small office and down the way you had came through hall. You knew the place and he was headed to your old room, you tried to fight back, trying to twist your arm free but it was useless. He threw you in, your body bouncing on the cement floor when you lost your balance. He then slammed the door shut, the sound of hollow metal rung heavy through the air, followed by a distinct click. Slowly you pulled yourself to your feet, everything was as you left it.
Now you knew why James had been keeping it a secret. The fact he knew what you were, he didn't want to let you go cause he wanted more like himself. You walked over and sat on the edge of your bed, emotions flooded you as you tried to wrap your brain around everything. He was using you, just like Rumlow and the rest of Hydra. A tear slowly made it way down your cheek.
——
James knelt on a hill a good distance from the hydra facility, he hadn't slept the entire day and dusk had finally fallen. He watched as people slowly trekked around the outside, large black rifles slung heavily over their backs. He growled to himself as he observed looking for the weak spot in their defenses while his family made their way there. Unlike them he could withstand daylight, but his family couldn't and it would take them all to you out.
He had ordered Natasha to stay behind, he didn't trust her and there would be a family meeting after everything was said and done with on what to do with her. James has followed your scent without looking for clues like the archer had.
"Hey Buck." Steve's voice broke the silence surrounding the vampire, James slowly stood the wind catching his loose hair, glowing eyes still trained on the building down below.
"Steve." He replied finally turning. His family stood ready, in their usual battle gear. Even Wanda herself had opted out of the dresses she typically wore and was wear pants and a long red coat. Tony stepped up, his eyes locking on the building ahead and whistled.
"Lots of humans." He stated.
"At least two dozen outside, probably three times as much inside and all heavily armed." Bucky told them slowly, his eyes on Tony. "Mind calling in the big guy?"
"Oh, he's going to love this." Tony quipped back.

Review: All Good Things Must Come to an Endgame. (major spoilers.)
Capping off phase three of the Marvel cinematic universe was always going to be a monumental task. It had to be a film that worked both as a sequel to Infinity War, while also tying together buckets of plot and development from over twenty movies over the last decade. The Russo brothers had to juggle actors contracts being up, coming up with a believable fix to The Snap, while subtly hinting at what might come next for phase four. For the most part they managed to create a thrilling, satisfying movie that had me cheering in my seats, but definitely had me thinking about certain (mostly inconsequential) details that didn’t feel quite right.
Review under the cut.
The Time Heist.
We knew that somehow, no matter what, the remaining heroes from Infinity war would find a way to get everyone back. It’d be a crap end to the franchise if they didn’t, and also confusing considering there are movies planned that depend on certain characters, you know… existing. Time travel was the prevailing theory for a lot of people, and it makes the most sense. Still, the way that idea was used, to go back to key times in MCU that were both infinity stone locations, and places were each character could grow and reflect on the past was beautiful. And it was entertaining as an audience member seeing characters that have grown so much over the years encounter younger, stupider versions of themselves (looking at you Starlord.) The heavy emphasis on the original avengers film in 2012 was important; as that was arguably the first movie that proved a shared cinematic universe could work. As the present day Scott, Tony, Steve and Bruce scurry around the 2012 battle of New York we get a look back at the original six heroes kicking ass, as well as a sneaky view into what happened after. The way they all just took the tesseract, scepter and time stone felt very easy but was enjoyable nonetheless. In fact, the collection of all the stones, barring the soul stone guarded by Red Skull were all collected incredibly easily, so the focus was more on nostalgia than a complicated heist plot.
(A highlight was definitely Tony perving on “America’s ass”.)
Not All Hero Arcs were Created Equal.
With the destruction of half all living things the movie was able to zero in on a smaller core cast, and luckily the first six Avengers, the people who have been on the journey the longest, it was a final chance to give them a thoughtful, meaningful farewell. With the addition of Rocket, Rhodey, Nebula and to a lesser extend Carol (more on that in a bit) the original cast were able to close out their storylines. Some of these were more successful, Hawkeye getting his family back, or Bruce finding a balance between beast and man were nice. The Hulk thing was strange and could be written off as a joke, it’s hard to take Bruce or the Hulk seriously as the weird mash-up they ended up as.
Some of the storylines ended, in my opinion, kind of sourly. As soon as Hawkeye and Black Widow rocked up to the soul stone planet, you knew one of them was doomed. Scarlett Johansson rose to the occasion in a big way, as she sometimes falls flat. First as the tired warrior trying to hold down the Avengers after the snap, which was a cool evolution to a character who used to be a loner, then as the sacrificial lamb. It was a truly heartbreaking thing to watch Clint and Nat try to save each other, a final ode to their relationship, which was one of the best in the MCU. When Clint returned to the present without her it felt heavy, so I was frustrated she didn’t get as great a send-off or the same emotional response that the other major death got.
Thor’s fate is already one of the most contentious outcomes on the internet. I hate that basically any development made during Thor Ragnarok has been undone, I wish that the Russo’s had been more faithful to the ideas Taika Waititi and Chris Hemsworth made. But I do believe his current state, as a drunk, overweight recluse, isn’t totally out of the realm of possibility. He did lose everything and blamed himself for The Snap, so to want to spiral, to break down and lose hope, isn’t beyond possibility. The weight gain could be seen as just a punch line, (making fun of people who gain weight isn’t funny or cool) but it’s also a conscious step away from “perfect man, perfect body angel pirate” thing. He still got to play around with Meek and Korg, which was great. I do not believe for a second he would just leave New Asgard and the people he fought so hard to join the Guardians. That’s dumb, but when an actor wants to put a character to rest concessions have to be made. The big issue will be explaining his absence if he’s not in Guardians 3. (He could and should replace Chris Pratt.)
Tony and Steve, Captain America and Iron Man, were always going to be the two characters with the grandest ending narratives. They have led and been the leaders of most movies. They got, in my opinion, very suitable and bittersweet endings. Cap has fought and fought, slowly inching away from the patriot of the 1940s, to see him go back and get the ending he was robbed of when he went into the ice was really nice. The rules of fictional time-travel, not just in Back to the Future, say he shouldn’t have been able to do this. To totally change his past things would change in the future but whatever. Would he leave all the friends he’s made the last decade, to revert back to a more difficult time? That’s for the message boards to debate. He got a happy ending, which is fitting.
Tony Stark has had one of the best character arcs in movie history. From “the merchant of death,” to a hero who was still an emotionally stunted lone wolf, to a team leader who has tried to sacrifice himself at least once in every movie he’s been in. The hero that started the entire franchise in a cave with a box of scraps. He sort of got his happy ending and then didn’t. He got to spend four years happy with a family which is what a lot of people wanted for him. But in the end, it was him that made the ultimate sacrifice. There’s the idea that to have a character suffer for so long to only die at the end isn’t entertainment. But it was fitting, it was emotional and it was beautiful. He had the strength to do his own snap, and then he got to be with his wife, his best friends and his adoptive son Peter one last time. (I thought I couldn’t cry harder than when Peter turned to dust, but the sequel hurt, where the two roles were reversed, way more.) Robert Downey Jr's work, his acting in not just those final scenes but in the whole movie was a master class. Hopefully, Peter and the rest of the world will be able to move on… But I doubt it.
Thanos in Infinity War said to Strange during their first battle “You never used your greatest weapon” which back then was the time stone, but this time it was Captain Marvel. The excuse that she was in space explained why she never helped the Avengers before pretty well but to use that again to explain how little she was in Endgame was a cop-out. The first ten minutes, where they fight Thanos the first time and she put him in a chokehold was so satisfying. The second time when she took the full brunt of a head-butt and not flinch was even cooler. Imagine if she’d had the opportunity to travel to 2012 or even to go collect the power stone. I understand that she has solo sequels pretty much assured, but she definitely should have been in Endgame so much more… and her haircut made her look like Hillary Clinton.
The next generation, Valkyrie, Wanda, Carol, Sam and Bucky all have bright futures, and I think it’ll be very exciting when Disney releases television shows starring some of them.
Fight!
Finally, I wanted to mention how perfect, how epic, how breathtaking that final fight was. Starting with the big three against a no gauntlet Thanos, that almost would have been enough. We got the fan service of Captain America holding you know what, Thor fighting with long hair again. But when Thanos’ army comes over the hill, and then Doctor Strange opes up a hundred portals I screamed. Why neither of these armies showed up in Infinity War is a mystery but it was beautiful all the same. And that sequence, all the female heroes of the last decade (Including Pepper in some dope blue armor) lining up and going ham on their enemies was my favorite part of the movie hands down.
Final Verdict
So the overall feeling as I left the theatre was lots of excitement, and that the journey that the movies and the audience had been following for so, so long had come to a pretty satisfying conclusion. Any problems audiences may have so far seem to be subjective, and could be debated, about Caps goodbye, Thor’s weight, or whatever else. Endgame did an amazing job of celebrating the old movies, and was full of amazing action and fight sequences and left the door open to the possibilities for more movies with some fan favorites.

infinity war spoilers
n my thoughts
that was a ride for sure
im really glad marvel got braver when it comes to killing off characters. imo GotG2 sucked ass (i genuinely hate that movie lmao) and thor:ragnarok was good but i feel like theyre starting to lay on the Funny Man(TM) act a little TOO much so this was a welcome change
im eternally glad they killed off loki. i dont like tom hiddleston or loki and i never have im sorry. i thought he was cool in ragnarok but thor 2 was just all around bad imo and lokis shit got old hella quick. also it immediately showed they were serious
peter was def my fav char in this entire movie. ive been waiting for an eternity for ANYONE to make spiderman more spiderlike and his new suit was just delicious for the aesthetic geek in me. hes also one of the few characters whose humor never starts to annoy me. with the GotG, the 2nd film was such a turn-off for me that every time they had another thickly laid on joke they shoved into your face i just couldnt laugh about it. the only GotG jokes i laughed about were drax’s “ive been standing here an hour” scene and his “WHY IS GAMORA” thing
speaking of Gamora, im so glad they finally let her actress....act lmao. she wasnt remarkable to me at all in the first 2 movies bc it always seemed like she wasnt allowed to show ANY emotion at all, but the crying for thanos scene was cool. i kinda wish she’d showed as much emotion when thanos threw her down a fucking cliff but alas
i disliked the constant dick measuring contest between characters. quill and thor, strange and stark, some of the useless banter was placed at moments that just seemed completely unlogical to me. like ok thor you literally just watched your brother die and lost the only person you had left but you DO have the emotional capacity left to have a bitch-off with quill? :/
Wakanda was an always will be amazing and i have literally no complaints 100% approve of anything and everything t’challa and crew will ever do.
woulda liked a bit more emotion (doesnt matter what kind but at least EMOTION) between bruce and natasha bc everyone should know that i stan their relationship and i hate the constant turn-arounds natasha’s char goes through. doesnt matter who writes her, one movie shes opening up to people and the next she’ll be an emotionless ass again. also pissed abt the little amount of screentime tasha got in general
Wanda and vision were surprisingly cute but i wouldve preferred a little less heavy drama-like shit to show us they were together. i wouldve preferred to have a short scene of them sitting in their underwear together watching a movie and joking about it or w/e instead of the whole....”are we together or arent we” thing they did
i loved basically everything else tho. nebula’s torture scene actually scared me a bit, thanos really wasnt a bad villain like i thought he was gonna be. i really thought he was just gonna be another “wuh wuh world dominashun” type of guy but his motivations are surprisingly deep and his character was unhinged in a really balanced way. like he is grounded and psycho at the same time.
also wasnt as annoyed by bucky as i was in previous films, turns out not having steve give up literally all his values and friends in order to save him makes him a much more likeable character and the whole “steve?” death scene felt a lot less forced that way, to me at least. i much prefer it when a movie isnt constantly shoving in my face how much steve loses his goddamn mind whenever bucky is in the picture
the iron man/spiderman scene fucking killed me, as did all the other death scenes. also iron man was a lot more likeable in this film than in previous ones, you can really see some character growth. or maybe hes just tired idk. being the passivist understanding dude for once instead of a condescending douchebag is good
the scene where wanda has to kill vision was really cool to me, bc i never cared much about either before but the acting made it so that i actually felt really bad for them even tho the whole time stone thing was so obvious. visions empty robot body was cool
also the fighting scenes were fucking AMAZING. i love how wanda finally became a really good fighter and how shes a lot more agile and dynamic now. thors new axe is cool. Caps beard looks good and his entrance scene was amazing. the strange+spiderman portals “MAGIC WITH A KICK” thing was hardcore. tony’s nanotech was hardcore. bruce finally fighting for himself and using his wits while in the iron man suit was awesome. the wanda+tasha+okoye fighting scene was so cool too!
honestly tho my gripes arent really anything to write home about and are more like nitpicks because i lovedddd the movie. the only BIG gripe i have is that i knoooow theyre all gonna come back. it wouldve been a lot more believable to me if cap/tony/idk the original avengers crew died because theyve all had a bunch of screentime and them killing off peter parker and t’challa just shows theyre gonna come back bc no way marvel is not making them like 3 sequels each at LEAST
i also liked how much the after-credits scene was just another slap in the face. i know many people wanted it to be a “dont worry its gonna be alright!!! saviors are coming” moment but seeing hill and fury die gave me a weird sense of “hell fucking yea” because it shows they were trying to be serious about the “shit is fucked” thing
also im sad they showed the ant man + wasp trailer before the movie because it really lessened the blow of the deaths lmao

Current WIP Excerpts
inspired by @gaslightgallows, because I am vain and love validation, have a line from each of my current WIPs. with a few exceptions.
there are A Lot.
Life In Reverse
Thanos stood before them, titan in truth as well as name. Loki’s heart jumped into his throat and his thoughts briefly flashed to a shattered world, fingers tearing through his mind, screaming as his being was turned inside out. Fear froze him in place, instinctive, animal.
REMEMBER THIS COLD
Costume Porn: what it says, seriously. (Steve/Loki.)
Masquerade: Steve attends a costume ball. So does Loki.
Steve shifted nervously. “How did you know?”
“Body language,” Tony said simply. “You keep staring at him. Not that I can blame you. Guy looks unfairly good in a suit.”
“Why, thank you,” Loki said. Tony jumped, and then scowled a little.
the hills on fire for miles: The Thor: Ragnarok fic for RTC.
The woman standing in front of them was just barely illuminated by the early dawn light, but it was enough: she was hopelessly striking, lips quirked in a very faint and unpleasant smile, her eyes glittering coldly, looking from Steve to Loki.
“And you,” she said to him, “must be the youngest whelp. The failure. Which makes you…” she looked at Steve. “What does that make you?”
Attempt #432: Someone asked for the AU where one of Doom’s Loki-clones survived. It’s gonna be bad, folks.
His first memory was a silver mask with rectangles for eyes and mouth, looking down at him. “Attempt four-hundred and thirty-two,” it said, “success.”
MCU
Into the Valley of Death Rode the Six Hundred: The “Loki wins” fic where he gloats at Steve in his spare time and then ends up fighting a war on three fronts and actually asking for help with one of them.
Steve opened his eyes to find a hand over his mouth and the strong iron smell of blood filling his nose. He sucked in a sharp breath, heart hammering into motion. “Open your mouth to cry out and I will take your tongue before you can make a sound.” Loki’s voice was low and soft, but there was something ragged and breathless there as well. “Nod if you understand.”
Strange Bedfellows: The “Clint and Loki are captured and undergo TERRIBLE SUFFERING and bond, sort of” fic. Hey, people do it for Tony/Loki I don’t see why I can’t go with it my way.
Clint Barton had observed that missions tended to go wrong in one of two ways. Either it was a gradual stacking up of problems that inevitably led to total collapse no matter how hard you tried to hold on, or it was the kind of thing where you were standing in the middle of the building and the roof fell on you.
The Priesthood of Natasha Romanov: The one where Loki declares Natasha his High Priestess. She’s not really into it, though.
She tried to tell Thor about her encounter with Loki in Berlin, but the minute she got out an “I saw” her throat closed up and then she was talking about the Berlin Art Museum with some enthusiasm, despite the fact that she hadn’t gone. A few circuitous routes met with no more success, and even hints appeared to be impossible. Whatever magic fuckery Loki had worked on her, it was thorough.
important gangbang fic: Important Gangbang Fic.
The best thing about dropping in on Alfish parties was that by the time he arrived, most were too drunk to recognize him, or else too distracted to care.
so when the birds fly South: Loki gets beat up and Steve is the one to find him and I have no idea where this is going.
After months, months of thinking he’d been saved by that missile through the portal (irony of ironies) and then months more after he’d learned he had been mistaken, they’d run him to ground. He could run no further. Only turn and fight, and barely that, so little left in him.
Tear My Castle Down: The “Loki’s punishment is to be a slave to one of the Avengers but this time it’s Steve” fic.
Loki was shaking and pale, one hand braced on the doorframe, the other pulling at his collar, his chest heaving. Steve froze, mouth opening, and Loki half fell, grabbing his arm. “Captain,” he said, teeth chattering. “You need – you need to-”
which carries weight and always weighs the same: My Romanoff Big Bang fic, which is going to be a lot of “Natasha having interpersonal relationships” because I have interests.
Her training would have dictated that she fight until her last breath. That cornered, weaponless, and bleeding, she would go on fighting. Her training had told her they will try to seduce you, to steal your loyalties with grand promises. These are all lies. Of course, by the time Agent Clint Barton had her backed into a blind alley with nowhere to go, her loyalties were already for sale and she didn’t believe in anyone’s promises.
Subordination: Loki acquires his first dom, Sjofn. Shit is fun. Until it isn’t.
But he was a little tipsy, and a lot curious, and the way Sjofn was looking at him as though she wanted to devour him was making his whole body feel hot. Loki had lain with his fair share of women – and others – but feeling quite so pursued…that was new.
Just a Shadow Upon These Walls: Steve starts seeing a ghost. Steve starts seeing a ghost that is Loki. Things get weirder from there.
When Thor had left, Steve found a chair and sank down into it. Loki has been dead for almost two years. A day ago, Loki had been standing in Steve’s kitchen. How did he die? Steve should have asked, but he couldn’t have asked the question did he still have his eyes, couldn’t ask Thor that about his younger brother. His dead younger brother.
post Svartalfheim AU: depressed Loki goes to earth after TDW, starts running into Steve randomly, somehow this becomes Steve/Loki?? idk what
When Loki woke up, the first thing he felt was anger. It burned, sharp and fierce, because he had been cheated; he had died well, he had died loved, with Thor looking at him with something so much like care it had hurt worse than the wound in his chest. And once again, death spit him out, making a mockery of him. Of everything.
Thunderstorms: The sequel to “there’s a hell of a good universe next door” where Thor arrives.
“Steve,” Loki said, not looking away from Coulson, and then went on. “I could have slipped away from your clumsy trap at any time, or had your men fighting amongst themselves in the blink of an eye, or any number of more creative solutions. I could kill you with my bare hands right here, in this room, in – say – five seconds, perhaps less. I could probably even, if I had a mind, undermine your government until it fell to pieces.”
Steve made a faintly strangled sound that Loki ignored. “As you can see,” Loki said, sounding almost conversational, “I have not. And will not. I have little to no interest in involving myself in human politics. Unless I am mistaken, until today, you were unaware that I was here at all. It would be ideal for everyone if you chose to return to that state of affairs.”
forgive the children we once were: Bucky, who freed himself substantially earlier from Hydra’s control (during The Avengers), finds Loki, wounded and near death, after the events of Thor 2. Shenanigans ensue.
The stranger was still alive when Bucky got him into the apartment, though he looked like shit and Bucky had to hold his hand about an inch above his mouth to feel any breathing. Stupid, he thought. Gun's in the bedside table, just take care of it and dump the body. He half twitched toward the bedside table, but stopped at that. He still had questions. Dead bodies drew attention.
Sword Age, Wolf Age: the Ragnarok fic where things go a little differently when Thor comes back to Asgard.
“I have just saved your life and freed you and you would speak of what I owe you,” Loki said, starting away through the woods. “Such is the gratitude of the House of Odin.”
Someone to Watch Over You: Loki decides Steve needs a guardian angel. He doesn’t ask Steve about it. He also doesn’t expect to get labeled a sidekick.
Captain Steve Rogers, Loki had decided, was trying to get himself killed.
I’ll pull the devil down with me, one way or another: Thanos is coming. Loki doesn’t intend to take that lying down.
He stumbled out into Sanctuary, almost falling to his knees, and pried his hands away from the cube. His joints throbbed with the ache of the power filling him almost to bursting. He looked at it, glowing blue with swirls of light inside, and swallowed hard.
If this goes wrong, all the worlds will burn and it will be your fault.
keep your heart (close to the ground): the AU where Loki never invades, so the Avengers never form, and a depressed Steve and depressed Loki meet.
Lukas was leaning against the doorframe, one arm wrapped around his middle, blood covering half his face and dripping off his fingers. He smiled and there was blood on his teeth. “Hello,” he said. “Good. You still live here,” and listed forward. Steve, his thoughts spinning, caught him reflexively.
time may change me (but you can’t trace time): the fic where Loki tries to steal the Time Stone and gets stuck in a time loops. For some reason, it resets every time Steve dies.
“What did you do?” Rogers demanded.
“I have no idea,” Loki said. He was sitting in the sand and staring up at the sky, going over everything that had happened before this had started – everything he knew about the Time Stone and what it could do. He wasn’t getting anywhere.
Seams and Scars: Loki arrives on Midgard with his lips sewn shut.
Clint thought for sure he was going to die when he was slammed against the wall and those washed out, grey-green eyes met his. Clint’s eyes fixed on those gruesome black lines trickling blood. Stitches, he realized. He could see the knots. See the notch of a scar where one had torn through.
Who the hell does that? He remembered thinking, which was the last thought of his own he had before he set the spear to Clint’s heart and remade him in his image.
our history is coming to life again: The fic where a young Loki gets transplanted forward in time to post-The Dark World Earth. Things are not exactly going well for him.
“What happened,” Cap said, his voice tense.
“I’m dead, aren’t I,” was what came out of Loki’s mouth. And then he had to laugh, because obviously he wasn’t, he couldn’t be saying he was dead if he was dead, so he corrected, “was. I suppose.”
Temptation: Loki has a Steve problem.
Well, Loki thought. Well. It seemed his little problem was not solved after all. In fact, if anything, it was made worse. If he was going to imagine fucking Rogers every time he was trying to fight him-
Loki growled to himself. Damn him. Damn him and his beautiful eyelashes and beautiful eyes and sinfully beautiful mouth.
I know I’m the curséd one: Wanda and Loki, imprisoned for their magic, have to work together to escape.
He would not give in. Not to these. Not ever.
He would go mad (madder) first.
finding yourself at the end of the universe: The fic where Loki springs Steve from prison post Civil War, mostly out of spite, and they go on a dysfunctional road trip across space.
“Well,” said the last voice Steve had expected to hear. “That’s interesting.”
Steve’s eyes widened and he stared at Loki, struck dumb. Loki’s eyebrows quirked, gaze sweeping up and down. “Now why,” he murmured, “would they be keeping you down here with me? Have you been bad, Captain Rogers?”
Meet the Parents: Loki meets Sarah Rogers in the Roommates!AU.
“Offend her?” Steve’s eyebrows went up. “Why would you offend her?”
“Well,” Loki said, and stopped, searching for a diplomatic way to say I’m an addict, an asshole, and a bad influence without saying those precise words.
The Cold, the Dark, the Silence: It’s whump. That’s basically it.
His body was starting to fail. Loki could tell the signs of it in the way his hands shook, the chills that swept through him periodically. His healing had already been strained to the breaking point by his near death on Svartalfheim. Without food, with barely any water, the punishment his captors doled out in seemingly growing frustration was taking a toll.
the first steps stumbling forward: On Earth post-Ragnarok, Steve takes up secretly helping Asgardian refugees. There’s a familiar face among them.
“Thor said you were dead,” Rogers said.
“Thor is occasionally wrong about things,” Loki said. He didn’t particularly want to explain I was, sort of, but then I wasn’t, and then I took over Asgard and pretended to be my father for three years, which was actually very nice while it lasted.
escalated almost to an art: Yet another very dirty Loki/Grandmaster fic, where the Grandmaster experiments with drugging Loki in a variety of fun ways.
“You and me,” the Grandmaster said, reaching out and brushing his fingers along Loki’s jaw. “We’re going to have so much fun, aren’t we?”
Loki wished that didn’t sound so much like a threat.
He wished the fact that it did didn’t send a thrill down his spine.
Another Fall: Loki falls from Asgard into Hela’s prison.
“Interesting,” she said. She crouched down. “Where did you come from? The old fool sealed this place unfortunately well.” Loki coughed and choked. Her nose wrinkled. “I suppose if I want to get anything out of you I’ll need to fix you first.”
NOT MCU
Darkness, Darkness: The Morgana/Gwen fic set in “The Dark Tower.”
You should have trusted me, she thinks bitterly, as Gwen’s screams turn into sobs and Morgana’s own eyes sting. I loved you, Gwen. I loved you so much.
There’s a Lesson Here, I Just Don’t Know What It Is Yet: Still need to finish this Natasha/Yelena fic, still kicking myself over using an espionage plot, why did I do that.
“I’m on assignment,” she said blandly, rocking back on her heels, perched still too close. “And you? Still dancing for the Russian government?” Dancing. Yelena wondered if that was deliberate. After their last meeting, she’d tried learning to dance, briefly, but nothing about it had suited her.
the best all lack conviction: Fenris/Anders post Dragon Age II; they bicker, a lot, and maybe make out some too, eventually. Probably I will beat them up a lot too.
The wind blew the rain in on them again and the mage groaned, hunching his shoulders. “I hate Fereldan,” he muttered. “I truly do.”
“Perhaps you should have run to Tevinter,” Fenris said snidely. The mage gave him a baleful look but, to his surprise, did not say anything. He looked so pathetic that Fenris almost felt guilty. Almost.
Witches: Morrigan/Surana femslash fic, in which Merrin Surana would like to bang Morrigan and also become her.
She was tall as all humans were tall and carrying a staff on her back. She looked down her narrow nose at Merrin, Alistair, and the rest, air one of boredom and vague distaste. She was the most magnificent thing Merrin had ever seen.
The Interim: The fic about Morgana’s journey from dying of poison to coming back to Camelot dramatically changed and set on revenge.
She struggled to understand what was going on. To work out what had happened (he poisoned me) and what was happening now. It all hurt too much, though, and all she could do was lie there and whimper and hate how weak she felt. A cool hand pushed her hair off her brow. “It’s all right, sister. You’re safe.”
how this grace thing works: The first year at Grimglass lighthouse.
Felix up and vanished into the library the second he got the chance. He probably would’ve stayed there forever without eating if I hadn’t dragged him out sometimes for meals. He said the previous virtuer had just shoved books in wherever they fit so it’d be impossible to find anything. He dithered over a lot of ways of organizing them before settling on category and author, and then he’d mutter to himself about what category this book or that one really belonged in.

Abandoned
Title : Abandoned
Chapter no/One Shot: One Shot
Author: StarryNight35/StarryNightFantasies
Original Imagine: Imagine Loki witness a person abandoning a pet, he pays little heed at first, humans, of course, are fickle creatures, but on hearing the human use words like “runt” and “worthless” something in him stirs. Looking into the box human has dumped the animal in, he realises it is a small black furball.
Rating: G- Some language
Notes/Warnings: Just some language. One or two F-bombs.

Three hours. Loki had exactly three hours of free time before someone would come looking for him. That’s what Stark had told him, anyway.
Ten minutes ago, Loki stood in Fury’s office rolling his eyes as Stark droned on and on about what he was not allowed to do while he was out on the town alone. It seemed the only thing he was allowed to do was walk. And even that might get him into trouble if he walked in the wrong direction. Still, no matter how stupid Stark’s threats sounded to him, he was very much looking forward to his time outside the tower. It had been almost five years since Loki had arrived, and he had never been out unless he was shackled to his oaf brother.
He had earned this tiny shred of independence.
As he strolled down the sidewalk as inconspicuously as possible, dressed in simple jeans and a Black Sabbath t-shirt he had begrudgingly borrowed from Stark, he wondered what there was to do. Midgard was so noisy, but it seemed to him there was nothing really happening. Nothing but anxious minions running around doing their master’s bidding. It made him wonder how the mortals would have reacted to being under his rule, even if he hadn’t truly wanted it in the first place.
The feeling of being free; not being heavily chained and surrounded by guards, was strange after all the time he had spent as a prisoner. The “Battle of New York,” as the humans liked to call it had been a little over five years ago, which was not very long in the grand scheme of Loki’s lifespan. But being held captive in Tony Stark’s dwelling was far less glamorous than most people realized.
Loki had been taken to Asgard to face Odin only to be sent straight back to Midgard a few weeks later. Everyone in Asgard believed him to be imprisoned in the dungeons. That was, after all, the logical solution to Odin’s problem son- lock him up for life. However, Nick Fury believed Loki would be an asset to the Avengers- if he could learn some impulse control. Loki still had no idea what that meant.
Fury and Stark had brought in psychologists, psychiatrists, hypnotists, and some of the best neurologists Midgard had to offer, but Loki managed to scare them all away within a matter of minutes. He hadn’t even tried.
Each one of the psychologists had come in, asked him a few questions, and bolted for the door upon receiving his answers. Same with the psychiatrists. The hypnotists had not been able to do their jobs because Loki had hypnotized them. Fury still thought he’d done it on purpose, but he hadn’t. He’d done exactly as they asked- stared into their eyes, watched the pendulum, and the next thing he knew they were in some kind of trance. When they finally came out of it, they too ran for the door without looking back.
The neurologists had been a different story. Loki’s anxiety was palpable when they asked him to lie down on that little table. And when they told him he would be lying inside that cylindrical tube for up to forty five minutes, green light shot from his fingertips involutarily, and the neurologists quit too.
At that point, Fury felt there was no hope for Loki. He was “untreatable.“
He was a god who didn’t measure up in Midgard because he was untreatable.
An Asgardian who was worthless in Asgard because he was actually a Frost Giant.
And a Frost Giant who didn’t belong in Jotunheim because he was a runt.
Evidently, Loki didn’t belong anywhere.
Those were the thoughts that plagued his mind as he walked around Manhattan, aware that he was still being monitored by the bug Stark had implanted in his wrist, but not really motivated to escape. He didn’t really care anymore. He was just glad he had somehow met Fury’s rigorous behavior standards so he could have a few hours alone every once in a while.
"Worthless little runt.”
At first, Loki thought the voice had come from his own mind. After all of the legitimate medical professionals had run for the hills, Fury suggested he work closely with Dr. Banner. Fury thought Bruce might be able to provide Loki with some anger management techniques since he had been through quite a bit of therapy himself. Loki hadn’t meant to reveal his secret- that his biggest nemesis wasn’t actually Thor, but himself. But it was difficult to hide anything from Bruce. The truth was, he heard things like that all the time. He’d tried not to listen to that “inner voice,” as Bruce called it, but it was almost impossible.
“I don’t know why I ever adopted you in the first place. Look at you. Sniveling little shit.”
At that point, Loki knew the voice wasn’t in his head. It was someone closeby. He didn’t know who was at the receiving end of those comments, but he intended to find out.
“Destroying my curtains and everything else in the apartment. Now at least I’ll be through with you. Good luck surviving out here on your own.”
There was a rough male voice grumbling in the next alley, and Loki snuck around the corner to take a peek.
The man was dressed in jeans and a tattered sweatshirt, and he was peering into a cardboard box in his arms. The expression on his face was hard and cold, and Loki said a silent prayer to whatever god ruled the Midgardians that he didn’t have a human child inside.
As Loki watched, the man tossed the box into the nearest dumpster and walked away. The cruel grin on the man’s face made Loki want to disembowel him, but in deference to Fury’s rules, he refrained. And as soon as the man was gone, Loki ran to the trash receptacle to see what was inside the box.
There was a scratching sound, along with a muffled hiss as he gingerly lifted the box from the bin. At least it’s not human, Loki thought. He was unprepared for what he found, though because upon opening the lid, he found a tiny black fur ball with big bright gold eyes.
“You’re just a kitten!"
The kitten mewled loudly and leapt out of the box and onto his chest, latching its sharp claws in his t-shirt.
Loki stood stock still for a moment with his arms out to his sides. He had absolutely no idea what to do. He couldn’t just leave the kitten there to die; alone and afraid, especially after what he had overheard from that pathetic mortal man who’d dumped it. But he knew bringing the kitten back to the tower would cause such a rift, he would never hear the end of it.
The tiny black fur ball was staring at him, digging its claws deeper into his chest and giving him the most pitiful, pleading look.
Worthless little runt… worthless little runt… worthless little runt…
Loki heard the man’s words over and over in his head as he stared at the kitten. He reached one hand down to touch its back.
It was so soft! He rubbed the kitten’s back with one hand until it settled; still hanging on the front of his shirt. Then, almost against his better judgement, he reached his other hand down. As the kitten released its grip on his shirt, it seemed to fall limp into his hands, and Loki could feel himself giving in to its charms. It had been so long since he took care of anything or anyone other than himself, and he hadn’t done such a great job at that.
The others liked to think that Loki was incapable of love, but little did they know that before the ruckus on Midgard, he had been a father. Of course, like Loki, his children weren’t exactly what the Asgardians considered normal, but he had protected them with everything he had. That is, until Odin took them all away from him. The All-Father had claimed that Loki produced his children by "unnatural means,” and they must be sent away. The truth was, Loki had been in love. His children were his. But he never knew the reason for their uniqueness until he found out about his own. By that point though, they were gone, and their mother had been banished as well. Loki had lost everything.
He stroked the kitten’s back, taking comfort in its soft purr. It almost reminded him of baby Fenrir’s tiny growl…
Suddenly, Loki didn’t care what the others thought. He was taking the kitten back to the tower. There was no way he would abandon such an innocent creature.
The kitten wriggled in his arms as he walked, and Loki spoke softly to it, hoping to calm its nerves. He knew it had to be afraid. After all, it had been ripped from its home, yelled at, tossed into a dumpster, and ultimately rescued by a complete stranger. Not to mention the unspeakable things that might have happened to it before it was abandoned. But Loki couldn’t allow himself to think about that. Otherwise, he would turn around and hunt that worthless mortal man down.
As he entered the elevator, he realized that his free day had been cut short by about two hours, but he didn’t really care. What was he supposed to do in Manhattan all alone, other than pull pranks? He almost thought they wanted him to get into trouble. That way, they could lock him in his room. That way, they wouldn’t have to face him.
“What are you doing back so soon, dark one?"
Bucky was sitting at the kitchen counter nursing a cup of coffee when Loki emerged from the elevator on the fifth floor. He liked to call Loki various names, but the two had some things in common. No one really trusted either of them. Well, no one trusted Bucky except for Steve. And no one trusted Loki. So, they became uneasy friends.
"I got bored. No one to kill,” Loki said, deadpan.
Bucky laughed, knowing that’s exactly what the rest of the team would think.
A mewl came from Loki’s hands, and Bucky looked up from his coffee.
“Dude, is that what I think it is?!"
Loki shot Bucky a warning glance and walked toward him.
”Shhhh… I just rescued it–“ he held up the kitten’s tail – ”her...From a dumpster.“
Bucky cooed at the kitten, stroking her fur. "You found this baby in a dumpster?"
Loki’s lips flattened into a thin line. He didn’t feel like talking about what he had witnessed. Anyone who would abandon a helpless animal the way that man had…
"Yeah. Something like that."
"Reindeer games! What the hell are you doing back so soon? Already got yourself in trouble, didn’t you? Are the police on their way?"
Loki gritted his teeth to keep from snapping back. Diplomacy was his friend right now, he knew, but it was just so hard sometimes.
"Do you honestly think your mortal security teams could catch me? I know you were keeping tabs on my whereabouts the entire time. Did you see anything out of sorts, Stark?"
"Enough,” Fury barked. “Loki, what’s the deal? There must be a reason you returned two hours early. So help me, if you did something, I will send your ass straight back to Asgard and you know what will happen!"
Loki closed his eyes and took a deep breath through his nose, just like Banner had taught him. He was thankful his hands were full and hidden behind the counter at that moment because he didn’t know what he might have done otherwise. Any time Fury was angry at Loki, he threatened him with Odin; knowing that the thing that would happen is Loki’s execution.
Suddenly, the room was full- Romanov, Banner, and the soldier walked in at the sound of Fury’s bellowing.
"What’s going on?” Banner asked softly. As much as Loki detested his alter ego, he’d come to like the man himself. He was easy to be around; soft-spoken and calm.
“Loki came back early, and everyone is freaking the fuck out for no reason,” Bucky muttered.
Steve shot him a look, but he ignored it.
“There’s always a reason with this guy. You just haven’t been around enough to know that yet,” Stark said.
Everyone was quiet for a moment- staring awkwardly at Loki, but he didn’t bother speaking. He knew he couldn’t defend himself even if he hadn’t actually done anything. They were against him, so he was automatically in the wrong.
A tiny mewl escaped from his hands, and Loki schooled his face hoping no one had noticed it. His initial plan had been to take the kitten straight to his bedroom and hide it from everyone. However, none of his plans ever really worked the way he thought they would.
“What the hell was that?” Fury asked.
“For fuck’s sake, just show ‘em, Loki. Until you do, they’re gonna think you did something awful,” Bucky grumbled.
The kitten poked her head out from between Loki’s fingers, and let out a long high wail.
“Oh hell no,” Stark yelled. “You can’t bring that thing in here!"
Loki pulled the kitten to his chest in a protective gesture. "She was being abused, Stark. The worthless mortal abandoned her in a dumpster…left her to die in a cardboard box. How was I supposed to leave her there?”
Natasha looked at Stark, then at Loki. “You rescued a kitten?"
"Of course I did. How could I not? Look at her…she’s completely helpless. That’s why I came back two hours early."
Loki stroked the kitten’s back and smiled as it began to purr. Natasha grasped Stark’s arm, pulling him away from the group.
"You had better let him keep that kitten, Tony. Look at him. I have never seen him be affectionate with anyone or anything,” she whispered.
Fury joined them, but said nothing for a few moments as they all watched Loki and the kitten. He cradled her next to his face, whispering to her and gently pet her ears.
“Are we sure that’s really Loki? I mean, he didn’t hoodwink the bug in his wrist and take off, did he? Leaving this…cat lover in his place?” Fury mused.
“Nah, that’s him. And I think you should let him keep her. This will be good for Loki. You’re always telling me to find some way to keep him calm and occupied. Well, this is it,” Bruce interjected as he strolled up beside them.
Steve, Bucky, and Loki stood around the kitchen counter while the others talked. The only reason Steve was still in the room was to keep Bucky from getting himself into trouble. He was tired of all the drama around the tower. Bucky, however tended to let his emotions get the best of him, and ended up in more fights than Steve cared to admit. It seemed his friend had taken Loki’s place as the main instigator in the group.
Steve stood watching Loki and wondered how he had stumbled on the kitten in his little journey that afternoon. Loki wasn’t very forthcoming, so he was surprised when the god started to talk.
“I think I’ll call her Fennie– after my boy, Fenrir. I lost him so long ago…” he muttered sadly while rubbing the kitten’s ears.
“Oh, your cat in Asgard?” Bucky asked.
“No. My son.” Loki looked up at the two of them and his eyes clouded for a second. “I was a dad once. My children weren't accepted in Asgard, so they were sent away. I never saw them again. I still have no idea what happened to them.”
Bucky didn’t say anything else, but he looked at Steve as if asking for help.
“Tony—” Steve started, but Tony and the rest had been eavesdropping.
“I know, I know. I heard. Fine. Keep the cat. Just… don’t let her crap on my carpet."
Natasha slapped Tony on the shoulder. "You old softy! I knew you’d come around! Now, what you should do is let Loki use the rest of his time out to get some supplies. He needs cat food, a collar, a litter box…"
Loki looked up suddenly, having forgotten the need for so many accessories.
"I have to get all of those things today?”
“Hey, can I go? I used to have a cat…a long time ago. I can help you find what you need,” Bucky whispered hopefully.
“Tony.” Steve jerked his head toward Loki and Bucky, “I’m taking these two out to get necessary supplies. They’ll be safe with me."
"Take the kitten with you,” he replied.
“We will, dad,” Bucky mumbled.
Later that night, Loki lay on his back in the center of his bed. Fennie ran around the room chasing illusions of mice while Loki laughed. He’d almost forgotten what it was like to not feel alone. Later, she curled up next to him and fell fast asleep. Loki pulled her close to his chest so he could feel her soft purr and smiled.
