Now listen here you little shit one tiny kudos does not fully express the how I feel when I read a good fanfic and I am no where near being able to express in words the shear heartbreak or pure happiness that these authors can make me feel so let me send another fucking kudos
I would really love an arranged marriage fic where things are super awkward, maybe they haven’t consummated yet because Loki is a little younger than Thor or maybe they had really great sex on their wedding night but are both embarrassed about how unexpectedly intense it got, but things are awkward as hell. Lying together in bed at night staring up at the ceiling in silence kind of awkward. Making ridiculously forced small talk over breakfast awkward.
And then one morning Thor’s attendant comes in to dress him and settles him down to brush his hair and Loki is like “…can I?”
And Thor lets him, and stares at his lovely husband in the mirror the whole time, and Loki is so focused on brushing Thor’s sleep-tangles out, and he runs his fingers through it for ages after he’s done, and it’s this really pure bonding experience that Thor didn’t expect at all.
And Loki brushes Thor’s hair every morning for the rest of their lives. Happily ever after. The end.
Yes please
Tbh I always thought that the whole “I have eaten the fruit of the land of the death” excuse that Persephone gave her mother was kinda convenient so consider this:
Hades “kidnaps” Persephone, but what he’s really doing is helping his real live actual girlfriend escape the clutches of emotionally abusive/toxic mom Demeter (see “I can’t talk to my daughter for six months so I’m gonna mope and make the rest of the world suffer with me”)
Super clingy mom Demeter shows up and demands her daughter come back with her, using her own emotional stability and the fucking FATE OF THE WORLD as a guilt trip
“I would totally love to mom, but wouldn’t you know it, I ate this one pomegranate seed and as a result I’m stuck here forever so you should probs just leave and forget about me because it looks like I’m dead forev–”
Zeus shows up.
“Nah man, as king of the gods I can totes negate the effect of those pomegranate seeds, and let you go back to the real world with your mom.”
Cue frantic head shaking and silent pleads from Persephone & Hades from behind Demeter’s back for Zeus to shut the fuck up man, that is not the plan. Zeus catches on instantly.
“But only for half the year, because, uh the laws of–you know, biology or some shit?”
The goddess of flowers and the queen of hell quietly contemplates what she will plant on Zeus’s grave after she murders him.

4. If you can find the wire to cut, there’s no necessity to lie down on it always.
