#y'all i'm so new to loki fic how do i tag him

[rickktish]

Some unsolicited unpopular marvel opinions:

Loki was 100% responsible for destroying every bit of trust Thor ever had in him and if the fandom could get over making Loki their uwu baby they'd be able to recognize that Thor deserved better. Loki gets no rights for having daddy issues, actually; by the time you’re an adult, you are responsible for your own shitty behavior.

Tony was actually, genuinely wrong to support the Accords and the weight of his teammates' "betrayal" should not in fact be more highly valued than the actually immoral choice he was supporting

honestly maybe the entire fandom just has a betrayal kink? like i know we all grew up when those horrendous "all their friends betrayed them and now they've gone and found new friends in a crossover universe who are better in every way" fics were so popular on fanfiction.net but like. those weren't good fics. and their revenge plots weren't satisfying. and also they were always out of character. and just because you saw a chance to fulfill all your betrayal drama fantasies because of how many people sided with Cap doesn't make Tony's choice the right one, it just means you weren't paying attention to the political intrigue because you cared more about "oh no! Tony's parents were killed by a guy who's inevitably going to get a "redemption" arc (insofar as you need redemption after being brainwashed???) and Awful Steve cares more about his best friend from the War than Tony's Feelings! How Dare Awful Steve do that?"

Hawkeye's life is (on the comics side of things, which I know many of us draw on when we need to flesh things out) canonically sadder than Tony Stark's and none of y'all were ready to deal with that, so you had to make your uwu baby's life harder to make him more important. Which is fine, I do it when I'm in the mood to write sadfic too, but like. Clint was right there. He already existed. You didn't need to give his backstory to Tony so many times.

Also Thor's life (in mcu canon, right there, in front of your face) is canonically sadder than Tony Stark's and y'all completely ignore him so. You're missing out focusing on the ambiguous daddy issues instead of the victim of both parental and sibling abuse who watched his entire culture be destroyed. Just saying.

on the one hand, sibling fics are fun. on the other hand, anyone tagging "loki is a good sibling" needs to acknowledge that they're writing a wholeass au which does not exist after the first Thor movie. Loki is explicitly and intentionally written as a bad sibling in every movie. To be fair, Thor is explicitly and intentionally written as an infuriating sibling, but that doesn't change the fact that Loki is worse.

Loki got a redemption arc because he was popular, not because he had good or meaningful points or because he was "always supposed to be redeemed." I just need you to know that.

It's nice that Tony got to have a Moment at the end of End Game, but he didn't deserve it. Both in the "he wasn't good enough to earn that kind of moment" and "he didn't acknowledge anything he had done that was bad enough to deserve that kind of end" kind of way. Both are simultaneously true. There are generally three types of arcs that end in a heroic sacrifice, and they are the Mentor, the Paragon, and the Redeemed. Tony was an insufficient mentor to Spider-man to achieve Heroic Sacrifice levels, Captain America was the Paragon, and Loki would have been the Redeemed except that Thanos killed him in the last movie. Tony Stark was, unfortunately, a Mid arc at best, and did not earn the kind of payoff necessary to have gotten the heroic sacrifice.

Stranger. (Loki x Fem!Reader) — one shot

Welcome to my first ever Loki one shot! I blame tiktok for this one, and full credit for this idea goes to @/irislaufeyson on there (or she’s the first one I saw do this). I listened to “Still Don’t Know My Name” by Labrinth while writing! (It’s also used in the tiktoks so that’s why lol)

Summary: You loved Loki. But you needed to forget him. (aka Thor knows a special trick used only on Asgard where saying “Stranger” to someone erases all memories of them from your mind.)

Warnings: This is straight up angst. No happy ending. So sorry. (Also a warning for this having no set place in any timeline lol I wasn’t focused on that so just run with it)

When you first met Loki, you were annoyed. You hated him. You hated his smirk, his eyes, his teeth when he smiled, his tongue when it swiped over his bottom lip, and worst of all — you hated the reactions he got out of you.

You were well aware that’s all he wanted. A reaction. And despite your better efforts, your body gave it to him.

Eventually, you grew used to him. You had no choice. With him at the Tower being an “honorary” Avenger of sorts, you were stuck with him.

It started slow. The snide remarks, your rolling eyes, your grin when you’d effectively bring a god to his knees in hand-on-hand combat.

But then it went fast. The snide remarks turned flirty. You no longer rolled your eyes, but instead gave him looks. When you’d put him on the ground during training, you’d straddle his hips, and he’d sometimes flip you over, pinning your wrists at the side of your head.

Everyone would yell at you to get a room — well, Natasha would. Steve, Bucky, Sam, basically everyone else disapproved, including Thor. But Tony disapproved the most.

“I like him, okay?!” You screamed at Tony one night.

You had lost it. You reached a breaking point. Tony had been on your ass, making it known that he hated the way you and Loki looked at each other, flirted with one another. He had even gone as far to say that your and Loki’s “situation” was endangering productivity.

You could’ve smacked him. But if it weren’t for him, you’d be dead in a ditch somewhere. So you kept your head, and tried to explain your feelings to him.

“I still don’t like it,” Tony said after you finished. “He’s not safe.”

“He’s never once put my life in danger,” you argued.

“Not yet.”

“You don’t know that he will,” you continued. “I trust him.”

“It’s a bad idea,” Tony shrugged.

“Not everyone has chronic trust issues, Tony,” you snapped. “I don’t need a lecture from you of all damn people about trust.”

Tony let you leave after that. He never apologized to you for how he insulted you. And you never apologized to him, either.

You don’t remember when you started sleeping in Loki’s bed. All you know is that you got used to it quickly. Three nights in, you tried sleeping in your room, and wake up in his. And when you asked him how you got there, he simply smiled.

“You’re a sleepwalker, I’m afraid,” Loki murmured, lips ghosting over your eyebrow. “You climbed in next to me without a word.”

“I’m sorry,” you groaned, hiding your face in your arm.

“No need to be sorry, my love,” Loki whispered, turning your head so you’d stop hiding. “I am only glad that even in your sleep, you find me.”

You kissed him hard, then. Hands running through his hair, tugging, swallowing his moans while he swallowed yours. His hands found their way under your shirt, and would’ve gone further if it weren’t for the loud alarm that began to blare.

“Tony,” you grumbled. “I hate him.”

“Me too,” Loki agreed breathily. “We’ll finish this later, hm?”

You did.

It was a quiet shift, but eventually you began staying in Loki’s room completely. You moved a few of your things every night, started putting your clothes in his closet next to his, you even brought your favorite blanket with you one night — and that’s when you knew what you were feeling was serious.

Everything was perfect. Until it wasn’t.

Loki always told you he’d give you the world. The universe. All of it.

You never imagined he’d try.

“I’m doing this for you, love, don’t you see?” He had cried, voice broken.

“I don’t want you to do this,” you replied, tears welling in your eyes, and Loki didn’t know what to do then. He never wanted to cause you pain. “Stop this, Loki, please.”

But he was too far gone. “You’ll see. Once it’s done, you’ll see, my love. You’ll see.”

Tony got you out of there before Loki could do anything. You still don’t think he would have. But everyone else thought otherwise.

“You need to end this,” Tony said once he got you to safety.

You shook your head. “He’ll come around. I just need more time.”

“We don’t have time! People are going to die if we don’t do something!”

“Just give me some time!” You yelled back.

“No,” Tony said firmly. “I can’t. I’m sorry.”

You fought it hard. You tried to reason with Loki, but all of it was to no avail. People died.

Millions died.

The guilt weighed heavy on your heart. You didn’t even say goodbye before Thor took Loki home, back to Asgard, where he wouldn’t hurt anyone else.

It was months before you reached out to Thor, asking if you could speak to Loki. To say goodbye. To ask why. To check on him. To tell him you still love him, even though you shouldn’t.

You only told Thor it was to say goodbye. So he agreed.

And when he saw the state you were in, he offered a solution.

You told him if you could just forget, you’d feel better. The guilt was eating you alive. You were nearly hospitalized twice.

So, when Thor told you he knew how he could help you forget, you agreed without hesitation.

You loved Loki greatly. But you couldn’t keep going on like this.

“You’re doing the right thing,” Thor said.

You merely scoffed. A noise somewhere between a broken laugh and a sob.

Loki’s cell looked nicer than you expected, you’ll admit. And he was reading. Doing at least one thing that made him happy.

Your heart broke when you saw it was a copy of your favorite novel, knowing what you’re about to do.

“Brother,” Thor said. “You have a visitor.”

Loki laughed. “Go away.”

Slowly, you lowered the hood from your head. “Loki.”

Your voice. It stunned him to breathlessness, and he nearly dropped the book. He scrambled to his feet, right to the edge of his cell in a matter of minutes. “My love.”

Your heart broke. “How are you?”

“Better now that I see your face,” he smiled. “Have you come to get me out of here?”

You shook your head sadly. “I can’t do that.”

His face fell, only a fraction. “Still, I’m glad you came. I’ve missed you. How have you been in my absence?”

Sleepless. Restless. Depressed. Guilt-ridden. “I’ve been okay.”

Loki had always been good at reading your face. “What’s wrong?”

Tears welled in your eyes. “I love you.”

“My love,” Loki whispered. “What are you doing here?”

“I love you,” you repeated. “I’m so sorry for what I’m about to do, but I have to. You understand that, right?”

“Y/N—”

“Just tell me you understand,” you interrupted. “Please.”

“Okay,” Loki replied, but what you didn’t know is that he was trying to read your mind. Trying to figure out what was plaguing you, and when he saw, his eyes widened. “Y/N, don’t—”

“Stranger,” you choked out, squeezing your eyes shut once the last syllable left your lips.

When you opened them again, your eyebrows furrowed. What am I doing down here?

“Please,” Loki whispered. “My love.”

You looked around, wondering who he could be speaking to. “I’m sorry,” you said. “You must have me mistaken with someone else.”

Before Loki can say anything else, Thor calls out your name, catching your attention. “It’s time to go home.”

Right, it was all coming back now. You came to visit Thor and he asked if you’d like to walk with him as he did a routine check-in.

You gave Thor a look. “Not even going to let me stay one night? I’m hurt.”

Thor grinned, glad you didn’t lose your wit, but also glad to see a genuine smile on your face again. “Next time.”

“Fine,” you rolled your eyes, glancing one last time over your shoulder. “Who’s he?”

“No one important,” Thor replied quickly. “Thank you for accompanying me down here to check on things.”

You punched his arm with a laugh. “Always, you scaredy cat.”

Loki watched with tears streaking his face as you left, memories erased.

You might’ve forgotten him, but he’ll never forget you.

And if he ever gets out of this damn cell, he’ll make you remember.

Fic Meme

Tagged by @teadrinkingwolfgirl. I'm too tired to look for people to tag. If you're reading this, and you're a writer, you're tagged!

First fic

The very first fic I ever wrote was an untitled piece about three girls driving to Las Vegas to see the Backstreet Boys in concert for the 21st birthday of one of the girls. As luck would have it, they run into a couple of the Boys (Kevin and Brian) in the elevator of their hotel. Kevin and one of the girls (Minerva, who is not the main character) hit it off, and he invites them to join the guys at a nearby club where the Boys are making a promotional appearance. It’s an incredibly cheesy, improbable, self-insert fic (the MC is me, and she ends up with – shocker! – AJ McLean, who was, ofc, my favorite Boy. He's still my fave. Actually, he's the only one I like at all, lol). It was written terribly near the end of the last century when I first discovered fanfiction. I cringe so hard just thinking about it.

The first fic I ever posted online for others to read and ridicule was posted to an *NSYNC Yahoo group. It wasn’t the whole fic, just some of the early chapters. It ended up being a 65 chapter saga, told in three parts about childhood BFFs Justin Timberlake and Dylan Elizabeth Matthews. The first part focuses on them as kids – they both love basketball and dancing, and they audition for the MMC together, but only JT makes it. His leaving is hard for Dylan, who comes from an abusive home, and tho they don’t keep in touch, she follows his career as he becomes this international sensation as a member of *NSYNC. They bump into each other years later in NYC (he’s at TRL with the guys, she was in the building with her new BFF Mikey, at a dance audition). They hang, hook up, fight, and split (So. Much. Drama.), and they do it all in less than two days. A couple months later, Dylan has run away from home, ditching out on graduation with Mikey to join the European tour for a burgeoning pop star named Stevie (that was the audition at MTV studios). Dylan’s other BFF, Shui, comes to visit in Germany, and nursing student Shui clocks Dylan’s weird symptoms and encourages her to take a pregnancy test. And guess who’s having Justin Timberlake’s baby??? LOL

The second part is about Dylan working as Stevie’s personal assistant, raising the baby, and them all returning to the States so Stevie can establish herself in the USA (this was common for pop groups/singers in the late 90s, btw; it’s how BSB and *NSYNC did it). And O-M-G, who does Stevie book a tour with but *NSYNC! The final part is just more drama with Justin and Dylan trying to navigate being parents while not letting news of a lovechild get to the press while fighting their feelings for each other (and Mikey’s hatred for Justin and all straight men tbh). At the same time, Stevie and JC start up a secret romance of their own. There was another subplot about Lance and Shui, but I nixed that after he came out, LOL (yes, it took me like eight years to write this). Also, Britney is in there somewhere as Justin’s PR showmance partner who takes the whole thing more seriously than Justin does (I didn’t like her; still don't; sue me) and she, of course, doesn’t like Dylan. And she’s also mad bc Dylan befriends Christina Aguilera super fast. It's high school y'all.😂

Too bad the whole thing is stuck on a USB that doesn’t read on any computer I own, huh? And give me a break. I was heavy into the *NSYNC fandom and only 18.

Softest fic

Um, I have a few, I think? I'm not the biggest judge of soft and I don't write it often. So options:

- Love Was A Four-Letter Word – a fluffy one-shot where Tony wakes up from a nightmare but is comforted simply by Loki’s presence in bed beside him. And all the fluff about Tony not being able to tell Loki how much he loves him when he’s awake.

- What Are Friends For? – this was my first attempt at fluff. Tony and Loki are high school BFFs, and Loki seeks out Tony after a bad fight with Laufey ends with Loki getting face-smashed by the nearest heaviest object.

- Frosted Iron – wrote this for @abbessolute forever ago. Basically, Tony wants to get Loki to try a donut. Lol

- Just Because – literally cranked this out in like an hour after I tweeted about burning my chocolate chip cookies and an RP moot challenged me to write it as a FrostIron story. So I did. :)

Fic I'm most proud of

That's a hard one. I love most of all my fics! They all represent something different from different times in my life. But if I had to choose...I guess I have, like, a Top 3?

- Dark Side – mostly bc it was the first fic I started writing in the Avengers/Frostiron fandom. It was supposed to be a one-shot and bc of demand it ended up a trilogy covering nearly 40yrs.

- Empire State of Mind – one of the few fics that I wrote Tony as Iron Man and Loki as the God of Mischief, post-Avengers, semi in canon. I got a lot of flack for writing not one but two Major Character Deaths, but I wouldn't change it.

- Stay With Me – this wasn't the first WinterFrost I'd written (Can I Bum A Ride? and Second Time Around were first and second), but it's one of the few fics I'm actually really proud of. There was a lot of meaning and an unintentional message in it (fuck heteronormativity).

Fic that shows my progress

I'm not really sure? I've been writing, on and off, since 2000. I think I improve with every fic, but I had a long dry spell when writer's block was keeping from really writing a lot between 2013 and 2018. I had tons of ideas and wrote all my ideas down. I would guess then that the first fic I posted after that long draught would show some improvement. That was the first prompt in the 100 Ways to Say ILY challenge. "Pull over. Let me drive."

Favorite WIP

All of them. LOL. I want to work on all of them so badly that I can't decide which to work on first.

WinterFrost Single Dad AU – exactly what it says. Loki, a lawyer for Stark Industries, is reunited with his two young sons, Narfi and Vali, ages 11 and 10, respectively. Bucky, an ex-vet, former addict, and current elementary school teacher, shares a daughter, Gracie, who's 8, with his ex-wife. Any more backstory would get long and you might as well just wait until I publish the story.

WinterIron Bodyguard AU – Howard and Maria Stark have died in a car accident that a couple of NYPD detectives suspect was intentional. Concerned for the safety of their only son and heir, they encourage Tony to hire a bodyguard. Enter former Sgt. James Barnes, who runs his own security company. Their working relationship starts off rocky, but after Tony witnesses Bucky at work "guarding" him, things start to change. Past mistakes haunt Bucky as he walks the fine line between professional and personal – and at some point, he may pay for his lapse in judgement. At Tony's expense.

Royals AU Frostiron with a dash of WinterFrost – Focuses mostly on the princes of Asgard: Crown Prince Thor and Prince Loki. Thor is a heralded soldier, married to Asgard's best warrior – currently sidelined with a pregnancy while Asgard is at war. Loki is still reeling from a huge loss – and acting out, going on a joy ride with a hot young actor on the lands belonging to Lord Anthony Stark, the region's sole weapons manufacturer. In order to make amends and not put their contract in jeopardy, Odin makes a deal with Tony that calls for Loki to marry him. Royalty from all over the world descend on Asgard for the formal wedding announcement, including the scandalous bad boy Prince James of Romania, his mystery Russian companion Natasha Romanov, Tony's friends Captain Rogers and Dr. Bruce Banner, and more. Loki continues to rebel, even while Tony is staying in the palace (ahem, WinterFrost), and even as Tony's burgeoning feelings for Loki propel him to want to spill his biggest secret.

All I Ask, WinterFrost Modern AU – Bucky is a wounded vet trying to get used to life as a civilian after leaving the army. He moves out of the tiny apartment he shared with best friend Steve in his hometown of Brooklyn, into a sparsely decorated loft in artsy Greenwich Village. His new neighbors include a prima ballerina with all the deets on the building's residents (Natasha) and her hard-of-hearing DJ boyfriend (Clint), and an arrogant uppity artiste with awful taste in music who lives right above him (Loki). Bucky prefers to keep to himself – esp as he doesn't like anyone to stare at his arm, deeply scarred from a near-death injury. But his upstairs neighborhood has taken a liking to his face and asks to use him as a model for his upcoming showcase. With nothing better to do, Bucky relents and agrees.

And let's not forget I still have the 30 Day OTP Porn Challenge and the 100 Ways to Say ILY lists to finish, and I'm still working on adapting my WinterFrost RP into novel form.

Thanks for the tag! (And reading all of my blabbering :D)

Fic where the press hear tony accidentally say "pe-" before correcting himself to say spider-man and now the entirety of news stations now think that Pepper Potts is secretly Spider-Man, or as the news now says, Spider-Woman.

tldr// Tony and Peter are chaotic idiots who got themselves caught in a dumb situation again and Pepper is laughing her heels off at their stupidity

Y'all will never hear me stop talking about clints hearing aid and how fucking well they where handled as well as how the show explained why he has them. Unlike Loki and the *Gender-Fluid* thing appearing on his profile (which was fucking dumb do better with your representation) it's talked about but not in a bad way, it's talked about in a natural way like they should be. It's just a daughter who knows her dad and knows that is the type of shit he would pull if he didn't wanna listen to something. He had every right to block Rogers the musical out and he fucking did it- good for him. Also, the scenes that play when they're explaining why he has them are so realistic to what would actually cause deafness/hearing loss but they don't have to show all of them for you to understand that his avenger's missions are the main cause. Anyone who's watched any marvel movie will probably know they contain a ton of explosions and gun fire. Honestly I'm surprised all the avengers don't have some kind of hearing loss- Has anyone taken them get their hearing checked recently?

Anyways moving on- sounds shattering windows, guns and explosives are fucking loud- so loud in fact that it's likely for them to cause lasting damage, which is the entire reason for clints hearing loss.

It's jsut so fleshed out and perfect and holy fuck is it done so well i can't praise the actors/writers/directors enough for this.

Sorry I'm simping for good representation again my apologies
