The Snake and the Star cover art coloring process!
You still remember my process post about my TSATS cover art sketching from yesterday, right? Okay, good. Time for the colored version then!!
Tagging everyone who liked/reblogged the sketch process! @lehuka123 @the-phantom-author @oliveofthenight​ @destinyrainevans​ @aaravos-is-hot​ @myamoonseeker​ @sunstone-citrine​ @otakumultimuse-hiddlewhore​ @mozart-the-meerkitten​ @kaguya-inuyasha @king-bito​ @perlelas​ thank you all so much for the support!!! *sparkles*
After I copied the art out, I did a little coloring right then, then put it aside and... basically didn’t touch it for about a week. Here’s what I did at first:
Tumblr media
I might not have taken a picture at this point if I hadn’t wanted to show @alls-fair-in-pride-and-prejudice how much Aaravos looked like a Frost Giant. See, last time I colored Aaravos, for a TAATM drawing for Hope, I started with gray as his base skin color. This time, I’d looked at more pictures of him, and realized that his face and hands were a lot darker than his torso. And his skin tone in the TAATM art didn’t look quite right to me, so I wanted to try something different.
So here, I started by lightly shading a purplish blue all over his face, and black on his torso and arms. I also added a bit of my darkest red to his ears, because O////O he’s looking at Loki after all~
Next, I think I put on gray on his face, then purple all over. I forgot to color his hands at first, then ended up coloring them almost the same way as his face. His arms are only partially colored because where the color ends is where I decided his sleeves start. (yes, I forgot to put in clothing details before I copied it.)
I got back to coloring only the day before posting Chapter Two, actually. I did a couple more layers on Aaravos’s face, torso, and arms, then pulled out my pink and brown pencils for Loki.
Gray, pink (extra on his cheeks o//.//o), and two shades of brown blended well for his skin tone and shading, and I just went with black for his hair instead of trying to combine browns.
Tumblr media
Clothing next!! I checked a few pictures of both of them before deciding on Loki’s specific outfit. Pretty basic, green long sleeved shirt under gold-edged black vest. Aaravos, of course, is wearing his pretty black-and-gold robe. I did a couple quick graphite pencil lines to figure out exactly where I wanted the lines for sleeves and patterns and whatnot to go, then erased those and started coloring.
Tumblr media
I also started shading Aaravos’s hair in gray and lavender, and added a bit more pink to Loki’s face. o////o blushy boi
For Aaravos’s robe, I started shading gray at the bottom of the sleeve, then went to black around his shoulder. I darkened the black as I went down, then added purple all over. Loki’s vest is just black, but his shirt is two shades of green blended.
Oh, and I also went over everything multiple times over the course of the coloring with either my blending pencil or a basic white pencil (which works almost as well, really). I think I used the blender on their faces and the white on their clothes.
The absolute hardest part of this drawing? This step. Specifically, Loki’s helmet.
Tumblr media
I shaded Aaravos’s horns first. Lightly gray near the ends, darkening to black at the bases, then I went over that with lavender and purple. Pretty easy, actually, and smoothing them out with white pencil was even fun.
But that helmet...
Okay, so, tips for shading gold? A nice light brown works very well. I used an orange, a goldish-brown, a light brown, and a little black here. The black may have been a mistake.
My best reference picture was actually Loki’s helmet from the other side. Still, I’m pretty good at mentally flipping images (I think), and I managed. I left a white space for a glint of light, and did my best to darken the helmet in the right places.
Then I realized I hadn’t colored their eyes yet. So I did that-- orange, goldish-brown, and brown for Aaravos; two shades of green for Loki. Also black, for both of them.
Then I started on the background.
Before doing anything with the background, I consulted two people very important to this process. First, I asked Hope which side should be purple and which green, and what color the snake’s eyes should be. Then, I asked my sister whether it should be darker at the top or the bottom. Those questions answered, I began coloring.
Tumblr media
First it was lots of gray. I started with barely noticeable color near the bottom, getting darker and darker until I was shading with black near the top. Then I pulled out lavender and light green and thoroughly covered the gray and black.
Oh, also blending. I did some more blending.
Then shading again! I got out my dark purple and my dark (slightly bluish) green, and started from the top.
Tumblr media
Oooh, but there’s something missing~~
I had to take a moment to think about what I wanted for the little snake and star. I wanted them to contrast with the background, the same way the dots do in the original yin-yang symbol. And I didn’t want them to be just flat color, no, there was too much else I could do with them!
First, Aaravos’s star. Very lightly, I drew a lavender line around where I wanted the border to be, where I wanted the purple to shade into white. Then I colored that in, shading darker as I got closer to the middle. I did the same with dark purple, and added a tiny bit of black. Before I blended it, I went to work on Loki’s snake.
I started with light green there, covering it diagonally both ways before shading the edges in dark green. The eyes are (my purpliest) blue, which Hope suggested as a reference to the “are Loki’s eyes green or blue” debate (I’d not previously heard of this. poor sweet mind-controlled stabby bean!).
Blending!! I got out that white pencil and blended blended blended until that snake and that star were as smooth and soft-looking as I could get them, to contrast with the totally un-smoothed background.
Tumblr media
It looks done, right? But it’s not.
I wanted to go over the lines in black pencil, to help everything pop, and to keep each part distinct from the rest. Aaravos’s horn blends into his star in the above picture, and I like my art to have a little more clarity than that.
Plus, I needed something to make Aaravos’s freckles, and do the little light glints in their eyes. I’d planned to use my white gel pen, but it hates me and wouldn’t work well enough. Since I’m staying at my grandparents, and they just might have such a thing lying around, I asked my grandfather if there was a white pen or marker I could use.
Tumblr media
I went to town with this.
It wasn’t enough to stop at the freckles and eyes. Nah. I was having too much fun. So everything got shiny!! See the white on their sleeves? Loki’s helmet?The swirlies on Aaravos’s horns? The stars on his arms? WHEEE!! I LOVE white markers!!!!! Need to get myself a couple. 
Plus, my new signature for art I’ll post on Tumblr, written with one of my new charcoal pencils. I use several different online names, and I’ll sign my art with whichever is most appropriate. ^_^ I don’t care if it’s cliche or childish, I like doing little hearts over the i’s.
I’ve started work on another piece of TSATS art, a snapshot of a scene because I wanted to try my hand at Lady Loki..... (let me know if I should post the sketch or wait until I’ve finished coloring!)

My Reaction to “Avengers Endgame”
Yes- I still haven’t seen this movie.  Yes I know exactly what happens in this movie.  I mainly avoided it for a while due to overhype but with some convincing from my brother, Imma sit my butt down and try to watch this.
Pressing... play!
Right off the bat, I feel like I should warn you guys and say that I have... my opinions... about stuff.  Plus I’m a dumbass about Marvel so just bear with me.
I like that Disney Plus has to warn us about product placement
Clint!
Are we gonna see little Nathaniel running around- THERE he is!
We are gonna see Clint’s entire family get freaking obliterated
Is all the rumbling from the sky or are those airplanes freaking crashing to Earth in the distance?
What if they pulled a reverse WandaVision and showed the people getting snapped out of existence in a future film or show?  That would be freaking terrifying.
They’re [Tony and Nebula] playing paper football...
I wanna see more of THEIR interactions aboard the Milano.  The shots of them just repairing the ship are great too.
“I’m fine.  Totally fine.”  Everyone ever.
I also like you see the visual difference between Tony and Nebula.  While he’s growing gaunt and haggard from loss of oxygen, you can still see that Nebula looks absolutely fine because she’s like 75% android
So between 1995 and now, what the heck has Carol been up to?
“Thanos wiped out... 50% of all living creatures.”  So like entire ecosystems are just demolished.
*anthropology major part of my brain scrambling for answers*
“We lost.  And you [Steve] weren’t there.”  HE WAS IN WAKANDA!
Wait so the arc reactor ISN’T in Tony’s chest anymore?
“Where the hell have you [Carol] been all this time?”  Good question!
*silently bops to opening theme*
For some reason, I just really want the ship radio to randomly turn on so you just see everyone sitting awkwardly as “Piano Man” plays over the speakers
*Thanos slowly cooks his food*  Faster, all together now!  COOKING CAN BE FUN!
“I [Thanos] used the stones to destroy the stones.”  ...what?
“I am...[Thanos] inevitable.”  *starts humming “Inevitable” from TGWDLM*
“I [Thor] went for the head.”  YES YOU DID
[FIVE YEARS LATER] All righty so we’re doing this
*gasps*  Is... Steve running the therapy sit downs like Sam did in “The Winter Soldier”?  That’s awesome.  I really like this tidbit.
I’m also really liking Alan Silvestri’s score for this so far
I’m really trying not to nitpick but I feel like it would take more than 5 years for greenery to just completely overtake a suburban neighborhood
Also wow pre COVID life looks great you guys
“There’s a part of me that doesn’t even wanna find him.”  Are they talking about... Clint?  Is Clint just going the full vigilante route?
DOES HE KILL PEOPLE?!?
I really like Steve and Natasha’s friendship in these movies but for some reason I don’t feel like we get enough of Natasha for me to get behind her on an emotional standpoint
Are they gonna use the quantum realm to jumpstart the multiverse for Phase 4?
Also speaking of multiverse, I honestly really don’t want Spiderman:  No Way Home or Wandavision to get too cluttered by that
I like Tony’s lake house.  And he got a whole vegetable garden going too.  Kudos!
The little kid who plays Morgan Stark is adorable
“Not if we strictly follow the rules of time travel.”  Which we obviously won’t.
“We’re gonna need a really big brain.”  So where the [expletive] is Banner?
“Stranger danger.”  *snorts*
“Dab!”  *rolls eyes*
So is the whole Professor Hulk thing permanent?  I know he’s gonna be in the She-Hulk show but I’m wondering how they’re gonna tackle that.  And they’re gonna have Tim Roth too!
*smiles when Tony takes Morgan to bed*
Steve Rogers here [when they do the first time travel tests] is a Look ™
Maybe don’t let the GIANT GREEN MAN keep pressing a bunch of tiny tiny important buttons on a dashboard
*laughs at Steve shaking his head in disbelief when they finally bring Scott back*
*Tony’s car races toward the Avengers base*  NYOOOMMMM
*Tony rolls down his window*  It’s Britney, bitch
“And maybe not die trying.”  And you definitely will.
This whole bit where Scott keeps losing his dorito only to get another one from Bruce feels like a Doritos commercial.
*jams out to "Supersonic Rocket Ship by The Kinks*
Did they just keep reducing the green pigment for Hulk or what?
*sighs when they reveal Fat!Thor*
MIEK’S ALIVE!
Please tell me Noobmaster69 is Kid Loki, whom we meet in the Loki series
“Don’t... say that name.”  “Yeah we actually don’t say that name here.”  I like this.  I like that Thor has so much resentment for killing Thanos at the wrong time and that he felt that could have done better cause he’s A GOD.  So the fact that THANOS was on equal level and BEAT HIM-
Hawkeye’s killing people
This sword fight’s great [between the Yakuza person and Clint]
WHY DIDN’T THEY BUILD ON THIS [Clint and Natasha’s connection] ???
*laughs when Rhodey suggests killing baby Thanos*
These shots of Clint going through the Quantum Realm looks like something straight out of Andy Park’s concept art and that’s awesome
“Well I [Scott] haven’t [encountered an Infinity Stone] but I don’t even know what the hell you’re all talking about.”  *snorts*
“The Aether, firstly, is not a stone.”  Thank you!
The little glance Nebula gives after Thor mentions the Dark Elves just make me think that somewhere down the road, she has either A) encountered them or B) has encountered other Asgardians besides Thor
“Guys if you pick the right year, there are three stones in New York.”  “Shut the front door.”  *laughs*
Also underrated trio:  Steve, Natasha, and Bruce.  Gimme more.
Wait a minute, in 2012, Doctor Strange wasn’t active yet.  So are they gonna go see- OOOOOOOHHHHHH
[NEW YORK 2012] Oh here we go
*cracks up when Bruce very half-assedly smashes stuff on the street*
“I’m looking for Doctor Strange.”  “You’re about five years too early.”  Wait a minute.
HOW DOES SHE [the Ancient One] KNOW?!?
*giggles at Thor and Rocket sneaking in the background with a bored Loki in focus*
“That’s my [Thor’s] mother.  She dies today.”  I love this scene already.
Also WHY IS THOR- or the Thor films in general- have like the most well written characters in the whole canon?
It’s those movies, Guardians 2, The Winter Soldier, Civil War, aaand.... I can’t think of any more of them. 
Oh yeah and WANDAVISION cause THAT HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK-
Rocket just said he thinks of the Guardians as his family I’m gonna die...
What about their [Natasha and Rhodey’s] friendship?!?  I want more of that!
“Ronan’s obsession... clouds his judgment.”  ...HUH
*Thanos uses his sword to lift up Nebula’s chin*  Aw heck no
“As far as I’m concerned, that’s America’s ass.”  *has to take a second before nodding in agreement*
Wait is that Jasper Stillwell?
“Flick me.”  That bit alone could be taken out of context
“We’re in route to Doctor List.”  Who’s Doctor List?  Is that a code name?
“Hail Hydra.”  THE BASTARDS WENT AND DID IT
Please tell me this hand off scene is gonna be the opening for the Loki show.  Please tell me this is gonna happen.
*Loki takes the Tesseract again*  AND HE’S GOOONNNEE!!
LET’S GET TO FREAKING JUNE ALREADY!
*ends up quoting “Yeah, I know, I know” along with Steve*
I’m really glad Tilda Swinton actually came back for this cameo
*keeps slapping my laptop screen when people keep saying Doctor Strange made a mistake when it was an explicit point in Infinity War where he encountered 14 million other AUs to find the best result*
Are you telling me that this whole plan could derail because Nebula accidentally hacked into her own WiFI network?  Are you seriously doing this?
*Thanos and Ebony Maw scan Nebula’s duplicate memory bank and track her down*  Are you freaking kidding me?
...I have 96 minutes left?!?
“The future hasn’t been kind to you [Thor], has it?”  Frigga is underrated
So for these shots with Jane, are they just reusing different shots from Thor 2 or just footage from deleted scenes?
Can we talk about how Frigga is absolutely the best parent Thor has?  Meanwhile her husband ODIN is like “oh yeah by the way you have a secret sister totes magotes i’ll die now byeeee”
*sings along with “Come and Get Your Love” by Redbone*
*laughs when we cut to Quill just very badly singing along to his iPod in the distance*
I want a bonus short with just Rhodey and Nebula doing their thing
*Nebula gets her memory taken over by 2014 Thanos*  Nooooooo...
Are the glasses that Tony wears here part of EDITH from “Far From Home” or are they like a prototype?
Also I haven’t seen “Far From Home” yet because Sony hates me
Doctor Zola?!?
*jams out to the music playing when we see Hank Pym’s lab*
“A little girl would be nice.  Less of a chance that she’ll end up exactly like me [Howard Stark].”  *gasps softly*
Oh my God, he’s [Steve] in Peggy’s office
Alan Silvestri is really killing it with this score
JARVIS!!
Wait and that’s the guy from “Agent Carter”!
Ohhh that shot’s [of Thanos’s ship coming out of the clouds] awesome...
*2014 Nebula hands Thanos the Pym particles*  Oh are you kidding me...
The CGI for Red Skull is also awesome
*gasps when Natasha reveals that she never knew her dad’s name when Red Skull told it to her*
*is super bummed out when Natasha sacrifices herself*
Kevin Feige really went and said “so Phases 3 and 4 are gonna make everybody cry” and the writers went “YES”
Wait doesn’t Cap go and return the stones at the end of the movie?  How’s he gonna handle meeting Red Skull on Vormir then?
“It’s like... I [Bruce] was made for this.”  Please someone get Mark Ruffalo his own Hulk movie before he combusts from giving out more spoilers
So Thanos used the Pym particles to time travel then.  Honestly that’s kinda genius
I just noticed that Scott shrank himself right as the explosion hit the windows
I really want someone to just drop one F-bomb somewhere in the MCU and I really hope it’s Clint because he would 100% say it
*starts singing “Hollaback Girl” when Thanos arrives*
Here’s my question;  how did Thanos acquire Nebula then?  With Gamora, it was with the genocide of her people.
“We [Gamora to Nebula] can stop him.”  LET’S GO!
[Thor uses his storm powers to summon both Stormbreaker and Mjolnir] *softly* Ohhhhh that’s badass...
Now I’m just imagining the cast just in the green screen room just hitting Josh Brolin with a bunch of foam weapons and making all the sound effects while poor Josh is just struggling under the weight of the Thanos reference head on his mocap suit
Who does the voice for FRIDAY?
AN:  Irish actress named Kerry Condon
*Steve deems himself worth to wield Mjolnir*  OKKAAYY OKAAYY
Love how Thanos is like “yes, I’m gonna stab you with an AXE”
“In all my years of conquest...”  Steve you suuuucckkk...
Are we getting the Chitauri again?
“On your left.”  *laughs incredulously*  O-ohhh my God...
*Everyone starts coming out of the portals*  Oh my God I’m getting chills
I would have lost my mind in the theater
I HAVE ACTUAL GOOSEBUMPS RUNNING ALL OVER ME.  This is how good this is
WAIT ARE THOSE THE RAVAGER SHIPS ABOVE THEM?!?
“Avengers... assemble.”  Oh my God this is amazing!
M’BAKU!
Also “Endgame” really just said “We are KILLING FOOLS TODAY”
How are they gonna tackle Peter and Gamora’s relationship in Guardians 3?
[Horn plays La Cucaracha] LET’S GO
God I’m gonna turn feral
*has to pause to scream in excitement when Wanda touches down in front of Thanos to fight him*
*puts hands on head*  OHH MY GOOOOODDDDD
They’re literally just playing Keep Away with a teenage boy.  Marvel, everybody.
*Captain Marvel destroys Thanos’s ship*  WELL IT TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH
OK I got mixed feelings about that [the girl power team up scene]
*Thanos unsuccessfully headbutts Carol*  Oh shit!
*Doctor Strange holds up one finger*  Oh my God this is it
Someone definitely tore off when Thanos pushed Tony off
It was in that moment he [Thanos] knew- he effed up
*All of Thanos’s army dissipates*  Byeee...
Is it bad that I’m not crying at Tony’s death?
*gasps when Peter reunites with Ned at school*
Wait the whole time heist takes place within ONE DAY?
“I love you 3000.”  I really hope we see Morgan again somewhere in one of the movies or shows.  Actually a cool way to reincorporate her would be in the Ironheart series whenever they make it
Even Drax is wearing black!
It’s the “We should be getting therapy but we got a TV show instead” trio [Wanda, Bucky, and Sam]
Wait is that guy- was that guy- the little kid from Iron Man 3?
AN:  Yes
So right after this funeral, Wanda’s gonna storm SWORD right?
AN:  This was finished up on 2/26 so probably YES
*Thor crowns Valkyrie the new leader of New Asgard*  I now cannot wait for “Thor Love and Thunder”
Wait Peter’s looking for Gamora!
Still cannot believe that the time travel suits are completely CGI
I know they had a body double for Chris Evans here but I do think it would have been cool if they used the body double’s voice for Old Steve instead of Chris trying to sound old
He [Steve] put the shield in an art portfolio bag...
*says “No, no I don’t think I will” along with Steve*
*silently jams out to “It’s Been a Long, Long Time” playing during the credits*
Wait and that was the song Fury was playing in “Winter Soldier”
Oh they even got the actual signatures!  That’s awesome!

Teen Avengers as Tiktokers 😳
oh my gosh i genuinely dont even have (or like) tiktok but a lot of my friends are obsessed with it so here are teen avengers as tiktokers. if you have more headcannons like these, send in the asks pls, but here we go:
Steve
“how in the world do you work this app”
everyone probably makes fun of him because he uses effects wrong
but hes so cute and fluffy and big and blond so they all fall in love with him anyways
never uses song with curse words
and if he does, it’s usually a clean version.
he CANNOT dance, so he often shows his art and THATS what gain him popularity
one day he was showing his art there was an amazing drawing of Tony on the side that wasn’t meant to be in frame but the people demanded to see it in full
wait till they learnt that was a real person
Tony
that one tiktoker everyone ships with steve 😑
okay he’s probably one of those ones that uses his money for crazy experiments
“watch me pour hydrofluoric acid on 10 iphone X’s stacked on eachother”
the ones that dont follow him for the crazy stuff are there because of how fucking adorable he is.
bitch has fucjing flowers in his hair and wearing hoodies to big for him. hes so tiny too i-
he went live at school one day and they saw steve behind the screen and AH
When hes not endangering himself, he plays covers on the piano.
soft tiktok boy indeed.
probably only knows the “why you so obsessed with me” and “renegade” dance
Natasha
the only one that can dance
well she did have a background in ballet dance but sis can throw it BACK
tries to teach steve how to dance but he just looked like a chicken so she gave up
kinda an egirl tho
someone saw her wearing scrunches in public and asked her if she was a vsco girl, so she made a whole tiktok about i
“oMg yOuR weARing a sksKsksSRUNCHIE are you a skskjdVSCO girl”
*steps out in full egirl outfit* “....bITCH DO I LOOK LIKE”-
other than that, she can kick ass too ofc and she also posts some tiktoks about easy and effective self defense for girls if they ever need it :)
Thor
too pure for his own good
never gets anything on that app.....NOTHING
but god hes so pretty like why wouldn’t you follow this dumb blonde with long sparkling hair
looks like a greek god, is a norse god
has led lights and probably runs around like a maniac with them
has a bf
his name is bruce of course
shows bruce off a lot since bruce refused to make a tiktok account
so they make tiktoks together a lot lol
everyone ships them so hard! thorbruce rights for life!
Clint
who let this bitch on this app
king of pranks and funny videos
“POV: you’re loki and i beat you up for existing”
*proceeds to beat the phone up*
transition god
rants about how much he hates S.H.I.E.L.D. high and how everyone there is gay and he just wants someone to hold his hand :(
a lot of girls volunteer 😳
Tony helps him pull a prank on Principal Fury.
It did not go well for either parties
but it got him 500k likes on tiktok so time well spent
he still got suspended for like a week 😭
If this doesnt flop, ill make a part 2 of the other marvel characters.

Hufflepuff Rescue
Summary: Only a true Hufflepuff could put up with a Slytherin like Tony for all those years!
House: Hufflepuff
Species: Human/Salamander hybrid (formerly Human)
Blood Status: Muggleborn (sans one possibly magic uncle)
Wand: Hazel, 10 inches, jackalope antler
Broom: the Rescue Mark-7
Patronus: Giant flaming rabbit from Hell
Specialties: Charms, practical magic, Defense Against the Dark Arts
Sorting
Pepper would've made a fine Ravenclaw, but her most defining traits are Hufflepuff ones. She's a workaholic; insanely (some would say literally) loyal to her friends and employers; empathetic and sensitive; and has an almost superhuman ability to tolerate damn near anyone. The fact that she would accept whatever House the Hat chose for her only increased her candidacy for Hufflepuff.
"You're all I have too, Tony."
When Virginia Potts received her letter from Hogwarts, her Muggle family did not outright disown her; but they distanced themselves from her, and made their disdain for her magic clear. She was miserable at home, and took every extra job and class she could to stay in the magical world over the summer and holidays. (Though American, Pepper's family had recently moved to the U.K. for business related reasons.)
Virginia Potts was extremely skilled at charms, and her wand frequently rained excess sparks when she wielded it. Friends joked that she had the "hot-pepper wand," leading to her Hogwarts nickname Pepper. Ms. Potts was more than happy to keep this new identity, and took to using her Muggle first name only for legalities. Early into her first year, Pepper was ecstatic to get hired by a rich classmate, for a summer job at
Stark Castle
When Pepper wrote to her family explaining that she wouldn't be home for summer break, they wrote back politely implying that they preferred it that way.
Her fellow Hufflepuffs laughed, fretted, or had nervous breakdowns when they learned who Pepper was going to spend the summer working for. They all assumed that Tony Stark would either discount Pepper immediately for being a "mudblood," or would hire her only to troll her mercilessly. Neither was the case. Howard Stark himself had been a muggleborn Slytherin, who'd worked his way up the wizard social ladder from nothing, and the Starks had never bought into prejudice of any kind. (Howard worked with a female auror Peggy Carter in the '40s, and was married to a Ravenclaw named Maria; Tony's two best homeboys Happy and Rhodey were both Gryffindors.) Pepper's Muggle background actually contributed to her hiring, as Tony had an affinity for Muggle cars and food, and one of his best friends, Happy Hogan, was a Muggleborn.
Tony was, however, every bit as much of a headache as he was infamous for. But Pepper was made of much stronger stuff than even her best friends credited her for. Tony's Slytherin-to-the-max traits run amok were tempered by Pepper's Hufflepuff patience, grounded focus, and sensitivity. She established herself quickly as someone neither Tony nor his Veela dancers could screw around with, and took great pride in her job.
Things changed in forth year, when Tony was captured by Neo Death Eaters and has a magical amulet implanted in his chest.
Despite her love for her job, and the chance to see Tony Stark's bare chest, Pepper was not enthused to help change his chest amulet. ("There's puss!" "It's not puss, it's just poisoned basilisk venom mixed with phoenix tears, calm down.") She was understandably upset to find Tony working in his dungeon lab on a dangerously experimental broom, for missions that could get him killed. She reminded him, "You're all I have too, Tony." She eventually came to except Tony as a vigilante; but still freaked out when he attempted to drive a Muggle race car and set himself on fire.
Proof My Slytherin Has a Heart
....is what Pepper had magically inscribed on Tony's Christmas present: his old chest amulet, framed in two silver snakes forming a heart.
The entire school squeed at the unlikely Hufflepuff/Slytherin hookup. Fortunately, the pair did not have to face as much antagonism as a Slytherin/Non-Slyth couple in "Harry Potter's" day might have. Any negativity they did face was met with Tony's wrath. But everyone knew Stark's best friends were comprised almost entirely of non-Slytherins, and most people weren't dumb enough to hassle him about it.
Night of the Flaming Lepus
After Loki's attack on Hogwarts, Tony developed PTSD and became paranoid about protecting everyone, especially Pepper. He taught her as much Defense Against the Dark Arts as he could, but she really struggled with conjuring her Patronus. The tiny wisp she managed to squeeze from her wand resembled a very nonthreatening looking bunny.
That Christmas, Tony surprised Pepper with a giant rabbit he'd bought on the magical black market, thinking bigger = better. She didn't like it, as it had a tendency to eat chunks out of furniture, block the fireplace, and eat all of the magical plants around the Hufflepuff commonroom. They all got fed up, and Pepper magically teleported the eleven-foot rabbit down to the Slytherin commonroom, causing some awkwardness for Tony, who was already getting on his fellow Slytherins' nerves.
Shortly afterwards, the Slytherin commonroom was obliterated by Tony's enemies. Fortunately no one was killed--except, sadly, the giant rabbit.
But it lived on in spirit...
The villain who'd tried to kill Tony turned out to be Pepper's ex boyfriend, a Ravenclaw named Alderich Killian, whom she'd dated back in first year. Killian, once a regular human wizard, had transformed himself and several henchmen into Salamander hybrids, granting them fire-shooting and regeneration powers. Killian captured Pepper, and subjected her to a painful transformation that made her too part-Salamander.
While trying to rescue Pepper atop the Astronomy tower, Tony failed to catch her, and saw her seemingly plummet into an inferno below. Suffering a sudden attack of amnesia regarding Pepper's new powers, Tony thought she was dead, and in a Heroic Blue Screen of Death, went for Killian's blood. But Tony didn't have his wand or his broom with him, and was no match for the fire-breathing lizard man. 
Killian prepared for the killing blow, when he was interrupted by an a voice screaming, "Expecto Patronum!" He and Tony both turned to see Pepper, glowing red with her new Salamander powers, aiming her wand at Killian. Flames traveled up her arm to her wand, mixing with her patronus as it emerged. An eleven-foot-tall rabbit made entirely out of fire charged at Killian, barring fangs with flaming eyes straight out of "Watership Down." Killian died screaming like a teletubby, just before the bunny from Hell leaped across the roof and bit his head off.
Staring up at his lover, Tony quipped, "I got nothing."
Tony offered to cure Pepper of her condition, to which she replied, "Why in the name of Merlin's facial hair would I want to lose these kickass powers? I like being a Hot Pepper!"
Tony then apologized for the sh*t he'd put her through, and blew up all of his brooms, creating a shower of fireworks for her and Hogwarts. (And an excuse for himself to build new brooms.)
Lovers Divided Get Reunited... Then Divided Again
After going through all that hell together, it seemed nothing was going to break Pepper and Tony up. Then Tony accidentally created a super-annoying gargoyle villain that destroyed Durmstrang, and Pepper declared it time for them to "take a break." That Halloween, she went home for the first holiday in years. After half a week back in the Muggle world, Pepper remembered why she'd left, and hurried back to Hogwarts.
She was not surprised to learn that Tony had been involved in a violent drunken Quidditch game. However, she was shocked to hear he and Rhodey were both at St. Mungo's, for physical and psychological damage respectively. Rhodey had been transformed into a merman, with Healers unable to restore his legs. Tony meanwhile had undergone an experience that would have broken far more stable people than him. Pepper did not have nice words for Steve Rogers after she learned the whole story. She did, however, have an eleven-foot-tall, hopping-mad, flaming Patronus ready for him. Rumor has it Steve grew the beard in the hopes of disguising himself from the Hell Bunny.
Pepper saw Tony emerge from the sh*t pile that was his life with a shocking new maturity. Well, mature for Tony; he was still snarking like a petulant child to Stephen Strange.  But otherwise, he was more sensible and stable than she'd ever seen him. He devoted himself to mentoring a cute little Ravenclaw with spider powers, and building more magical shields and gadgets to protect the world from Titan invaders. At graduation, Tony gave Pepper the most awkward proposal in history. She wrinkled her nose at first, but came around and said, "What the hell."
Then a new kid with a cape resembling Ming the Merciless stole Tony from Pepper, and took him for a ride on a giant flying donut.
Not An Entirely Muggle Family?
Shortly before Strange arrived to steal Pepper's boyfriend, Tony related to her what he'd seen in the crystal ball in Divination class that morning (after several eye-rolling innuendos about "balls," naturally). In the crystal, he saw them have a baby together, and named the child after Pepper's "eccentric uncle," whose name happened to be Morgan. (Note: That's canon.)  Uncle Morgan was one of the few relatives who didn't shun Pepper after her Hogwarts letter, though he was extremely strange. Pepper didn't see him perform magic, and Uncle Morgan wouldn't elaborate on the subject--or, more precisely, he would elaborate, exaggerate, and then truncate. Tony speculated that Uncle Morgan may have been a Muggleborn who'd somehow gotten himself expelled from Hogwarts.
A Hufflepuff Rescue
After the Snap, Tony and Pepper eloped, and Pepper indeed gave birth to a baby girl, who they named Morgan. Determined to protect his family, Tony built Pepper a new upgraded broom, wand, and impenetrable robes. She loved the color purple, but Tony chose royal purple and gold for other reasons as well. Sick of seeing his queen underrated and often dismissed as "Tony Stark's mudblood servant," Tony wanted to make sure no one mistook his wife's role in his life ever again. Pepper wore and wielded these accessories in the final battle against Thanos.
At one point in the fight, a man with an old-fashioned camera interrupted the battle to request that all of the females in the Hogwarts army gather at one area, and strike badass poses. The man was Denis Creevey, and explained that this photo was for the Daily Prophet's issue on Witch's History Month. The Avengers, Thanos, and all parties sighed and begrudgingly put their epic battle on hold to meet Creevey's request. Creevey then hurried off the battlefield, and the fight resumed. Weeks later, the Prophet's front page featured an undeniably smashing (somewhat literally!) moving portrait of all the witches fighting for Hogwarts, plus Deadpool in drag.
Pepper was horrified when Tony used the Infinity Wand to seemingly sacrifice himself and dust Thanos and his army. But even then, her Hufflepuff loyalty and compassion prevailed. She accepted Tony's sacrifice, and told him, "you can rest now."
She was of course, overjoyed to have her husband resurrected. She was less happy the following year, when Tony took a potion that allowed him to talk to animals, and adopted a number of very talkative exotic creatures, but that's a story for another day.
Wand, Patronus
Rabbits and jackalopes are known to be soft and maternal, yet tricksy and clever. And anyone who has seen "Watership Down" knows not to be fooled by their cuteness.
AN: A lot of people peg both Pepper and Tony as Ravenclaws, and I get it. J.K. herself would likely sort them there, if not straight into Gryffindor like most of the important characters (sigh). But I'm basing the Sorting partially on the characters' roles in the series. Pepper is brilliant, but her role is that of a loyal workaholic and empathetic lover, while Tony's is that of a genius who just. Never. Quits. Plus, the Hufflepuff/Slytherin dynamic was impossible to resist.

What are your favorite ships with Tony?
Tumblr media
((Oh, boy, you just opened the door for a whooooole flood of ships, ‘cause this mun multi-ships like hell! Little preface here, none of these ships below are in any particular order. I do prefer some over the other, but really I just like ‘em all.
Stony - Probably no surprise there, right? But it’s true. I genuinely like all of their interactions on screen, even the sad and painful ones because it’s clear there’s a lot going on under the surface. They’re almost polar opposites of each other, but in a way, not so much. They actually share a lot of qualities, but choose to express them in different ways. *Example: when showing they care for someone else. Steve is much more comfortable just outright saying it, where Tony is comfortable showing it* The way their relationship builds from Avengers one all the way through Endgame just feels really organic and natural. A huge part of me feels that a good part of Endgame is sort of hinting at this great tragedy between them. They were apart for so long, come back only for Tony to say he doesn’t trust him, part again for much longer and then come back together and are able to pick up this long-built respect and trust for a short time, only for it to end in one of their deaths. It’s honestly really beautiful and sad to me.
Frostiron - Yeah, I know they only shared, like, one scene together in Avengers but come on, man. Their parallels are soooooo stupidly clear. Similar-ish backgrounds and upbringings, very similar ways with handling themselves with smarts and sass, and both constantly struggling between right and wrong, selfishness and selflessness. I think, given the chance and if Loki hadn’t died to Infinity War and actually made it back to Earth, the two of them would’ve made a pretty good team and been able to have some really great interactions between them. But alas, we’ll never know.
IronStrange - Again, I know. Limited interaction. Yeah, they had more than Tony and Loki did, but still not that much, in between running around trying to fight Thanos and stay alive. But these two also share very similar qualities, while also being radically different people. Strange was a genius doctor who let his successes make him cocky, only to come face to face with a huge traumatic injury, leading him to humble himself and become a Master of the Mystic Arts. Tony was a genius engineer who let his successes make him become an arrogant jackass, comes face to face with a traumatic injury, leading him to humble himself and become Iron Man and, subsequently, an Avenger. Yet, they have a lot of differences, as evident by how they spent most of their interaction in Infinity War arguing. It creates a really dynamic relationship. Not to mention but the way Strange looks at Tony after he peeks into the future and sees the only way they win is by Tony’s death just breaks my heart every time.
Science Boyfriends - Okay…I’ll be the first to admit they did my boys a little dirty here. Tony and Bruce start off with a fantastic relationship in Avengers, built on trust and mutual respect. Tony never once fears Hulk, or treats Bruce any differently because of it. In fact, he actively makes fun of it, where everyone else is on edge or straight up ignoring it. And you can see Bruce appreciates that. He’s laughing when Tony pricks him with that little electo-stylus thing. This, of course, pays off when Hulk saves Tony from falling, because Hulk recognizes what Tony was trying to do. I’ll admit, I was a tiny bit peeved when they made Bruce fall asleep during most of Tony telling the story from Iron Man 3, but the fact that Tony was comfortable enough to even try to tell him speaks to a real vulnerability on Tony’s part. That’s huge for him, someone who tries to brush a lot of trauma off. Their relationship then hits a bit of a tense point in Age of Ultron. They created Ultron together, yet Bruce immediately backs down when it goes south and Tony is upset about it. But in the end, Bruce trusts Tony when he wants to try again and create Vision. It speaks to a lot of unspoken, perhaps off-screen, interaction to get them to this point. But then…yeah, they seem to kind of just forget all that after Age of Ultron. Granted Bruce disappears, so that didn’t help. But their interactions after that are relatively limited and…a bit stagnant, to be honest. It’s a shame because I love the idea of these two brilliant minds comings together, working on projects and having this huge respect and care between them. It’s not completely gone in the newest movies, with Bruce hugging Tony in IW and Tony immediately icing Bruce’s arm in Endgame, but it’s really few and far between.
Pepperoni - Yeah, I know. This has never really been my personal go-to ship. I’ve done a couple metas on why their relationship has rubbed me the wrong way in the past, through pretty much most of the movies. But I am going on record, saying one thing: I like their relationship in Endgame. A lot of that tired, old argument of Pepper not liking Tony being Iron Man and Tony not being able to express himself very well had reached a really good, believable conclusion. I adore the line Pepper says when she goes, “Tony, getting you to stop has been one of the few failures in my life.” I like that she has come to terms with the fact that she can’t force Tony to stop doing something he feels like he needs to do. She know he feels a ton of responsibility for everything that went on and that just something that makes Tony, Tony. So she accepts it. And by contrast, Tony has become much more open with his feelings because of it. He doesn’t need to hide things as much or lie because he’s afraid Pepper will get mad at him for it. He feels comfortable in telling her what’s going on in his head, even if it means going into certain death. Also, having Pepper’s final words to Tony be words of comfort for him, and not pleading him to stay alive, just feels so good. She knows Tony will not stop, not when people he cares for could get hurt or killed. So when he’s dying, the fact that she tells him they’ll be okay is just a breath of fresh air from the typical “Don’t leave me” way a lot of death scenes seem to go. So yeah, still not my go-to ship, but Endgame fixed a lot of problems I had with their relationship up until now.
That’s all I can think of right now, but honestly there are probably more. I can ship Tony with a ton of people and find ways why I like most all of them. Thanks for the question!))

Welcome to the second day of my 500 Followers JGCU Write Fest!!! I figured after yesterday’s angst with Loki’s JGCU Backstory we could do with some nice fluff - plus I never really expanded on the background between Jake and the reader within the Multiverse other than the bare bones of the story! So I hope you guys enjoy this! Please remember to let me know what you think - send in some concepts (or Romcomcepts as they’re called on here when regarding Jake x Reader) and even some blurb/headcannon requests! I love you all!!!
Tumblr media
“Hey - Y/N, right?” The girl looked up from her notepad and smiled warmly at Jake.
“Yeah! And you’re...” Y/N trailed off, her face slightly scrunched up as she tried to recall his name. “Jake!” She exclaimed in triumph and Jake chuckled, nodding as he felt his cheeks blush a little hearing his name falling from her lips.
“That’s me,” he confirmed. “I didn’t know you worked here?”
“First week,” she admitted, shrugging. “Do you... live around here or something?” She asked and Jake nodded, unable to take his eyes off of the waitress.
“Just down the road, actually.” He clarified when her eyebrows raised just a tad and he realised that he hadn’t actually responded to her with anything other than a single nod.
“Oh, that’s cool!” Y/N told him. “Can I get your order?” Jake felt his cheeks heat up and he nodded immediately.
“Yeah, of course - sorry. Just a latte please,” there was a warm smile on Y/N’s face as she wrote down his order and turned away back to the counter.
Jake sunk down on his chair and groaned quietly under his breath, silently beating himself up for his awkwardness when talking to the pretty girl he had been unable to get out of his head since running into her and Donnie on various occasions.
He shook his head at himself in despair and lent down to pick up his bag, pulling out his messy notes from the lecture he had just left along with some more paper, preparing himself to neatly write up his notes.
Jake let out a heavy sigh and brought out his phone, plugging his headphones in and pressing shuffle on his music before beginning to write.
He was so distracted by his work that he didn’t realise that Y/N had returned with his order until the coffee was placed on the table in front of him. He looked up at her, seeing her grin making him do the same.
“Here,” she placed down a piece of cake in front of him and Jake looked between the cake and her in confusion.
“I didn’t order that,” he pointed out and Y/N rolled her eyes playfully.
“I know you didn’t - you just looked like you needed it.” 
“Is that so?” Jake chuckled and Y/N nodded.
“I saw you pull out that uni stuff and I felt physical pain for you,” Jake burst out laughing, rolling his eyes at her.
“You wait until this time next year and you’ll have equal amounts of work to do,” Y/N crinkled her nose.
“Ugh, don’t start me thinking about next year when I’m actually going to have to start doing work.”
///
Jake had to admit that since he had found out that Y/N worked at the cafe he had become much more of a regular than he had previously been. Sure, the cafe wasn’t all that far away from his home but it definitely wasn’t the closest one to either his apartment or where he had his lectures.
Which was why David was so justified in his groaning when Jake insisted on them going to that cafe on their way home rather than the Starbucks that was so much closer.
“Come on, Jake, I just want to get home - I have so much work to do,” David groaned, his head lolling back.
“You were the one who said you wanted a coffee,” Jake pointed out, shrugging.
“I thought we’d just go to Starbucks seeing as it’s literally down the road from therapy,” David complained.
“Well we’re here now, dude, so stop complaining.” 
“You’re so annoying,” David told him, fixing him with an unimpressed look and Jake shrugged.
“Ask Loki to take you to therapy next time,” David stuck his tongue out at Jake in response, slouching down slightly in his chair.
Jake’s heart clenched just a little when he saw his friend shrink away further into the corner when Y/N walked up, ready to take their order with a smile on her face.
“Hey Jake!” She greeted before looking to David with the smile that set butterflies off in his stomach. 
“Hey, Y/N,” Jake put all his effort into ensuring he didn’t stutter over his words. “This is one of my roommates, David,” he introduced.
“Hey David, it’s nice to meet you - you’re the medic right?” David responded to her questioning with a tiny smile and a slight raise of his hand, which shook just a little as he swallowed and nodded.
“That’s me,” he agreed, his voice slightly hoarse.
“Just the usual?” Y/N questioned, looking back to Jake, who nodded.
“And a decaf for David,” he added and David scowled at him from across the table as Y/N scribbled down the order and walked off.
“That’s such bullshit,” he scoffed. “I don’t need decaf.”
“Dude your therapist told me not to let you have caffeine anymore,” Jake pointed out and David rolled his eyes.
“Whatever - at least I now know why you were so insistent on coming here,” David claimed with a devious smile.
“Is that right?”
“Yeah - you fancy the waitress girl,” Jake opened his mouth to protest but David shook his head, holding up his hand. “Please, Jake, you were practically drooling when she was over here.”
///
“I didn’t take you for a theatre kid,” Jake’s head shot up at her voice and his cheeks instinctively tinged red at Y/N’s presence, a cheeky grin on her face as she stood in front of the stall.
“What can I say? I’m full of surprises,” he teased, standing back from the sign up list and folding his arms a little, grinning at her.
Y/N stepped closer to the stall, looking at the photographs and leaflets in interest.
“So you like... run this thing?” She asked and Jake nodded.
“Kinda - Quentin’s really in charge but he... kinda sucks at the whole ‘organisation’ part of it so it tends to get passed along to me,” he told her, shrugging.
“Where’s he at today?”
“He’s around... somewhere,” Jake chuckled, looking for his friend. “Probably talking to Morf.”
“Morf?” Y/N questioned, her eyebrows raising a little. “Is that the dude who runs LGBT soc?” 
“Yeah - and Fine Art,” Jake confirmed.
“He tried to convince Rob that he was gay,” Y/N stated, her grin widening.
“What?”
“Rob signed up for Fine Art society and that dude told him he should also sign up for LGBT soc because he was clearly a closet gay,” Jake burst out laughing, shaking his head.
“That does sound like Morf,” he admitted. “He’s convinced all of us are closet gays, though - he took Q to a male strip club once in their first year because he was so convinced Q was gay,” Y/N threw her head back laughing at his story.
“You definitely know some interesting people, Mr Gyllenhaal,” she teased.
“I’m not sure that ‘interesting’ quite covers Q and Morf, to be honest,” he sighed. 
“Unless interesting covers ‘catastrophe-inducing’” Anthony commented, walking over to where the two of them were talking, a sly smile on his face that Jake knew too well from nights out with him. “I’m Anthony - Anthony Bell-Claire.” 
“Y/N,” the woman nodded back to him, looking a little awkwardly between Jake and Anthony.
“I think you’d make a wonderful leading lady, may I say.”
“Oh - I’m not... I’m not signing up I was just... talking to Jake,” Y/N told him immediately and Jake smiled softly at her, catching her eye.
“Right...” Anthony’s smile got slightly more knowing and he looked between the two of them. “Gotcha,” he winked at Jake. “Hey, if you want someone to show you around the Freshers Faire then I’m sure Jake here can spare ten minutes of his time?” He offered and Jake’s eyes widened a little.
“I don’t want to inconvenience anyone,” Y/N promised with a smile, though Jake could have sworn he could see her face lift a little in hope.
“Not at all - I can handle the stall for a little bit,” Anthony promised. 
///
“You look really pretty tonight!” Jake was shouting to be heard above the music as he danced with Y/N, whose smile widened at the compliment, though her eyes were hazy from the amount of alcohol she had already consumed at the party that night. “You look really pretty every night, though!” He added and he could see Y/N’s mouth open in laughter.
He wasn’t sure if the slight blush on her cheeks was as a result of his compliment or from the beer pumping through her body.
“I thought I should start making an effort - I don’t want to end up in Morf’s column,” she reached up towards him so that their faces were pressed together to make sure that Jake could hear her.
He started to laugh at her, shaking his head, his heart beating fast at the close proximity between them.
“You never look anything short of perfect - even Morf could never find anything bad to say about you!” He swore.
Y/N pulled back from him, biting her lip.
“How are you still single?” She questioned. “There’s got to be something wrong with you!” She insisted.
“No - I’m completely perfect so girls are just too intimidated by me to want to stay with me!” Jake insisted, leaning down to repeat himself to her when she looked at him in confusion.
“I’m starting to think that’s true, you know,” she retorted.
The song ended and a slower one began. Just as Y/N was about to move away from the dance floor to find herself another drink, Jake tugged on her wrist to make her turn back towards him.
“One more dance?” He requested hopefully.
“I was hoping you’d ask.”
///
No sight had ever been quite so beautiful to Jake.
He couldn’t even pay attention to the pain throbbing through his head as he looked at the woman sleeping on his chest, curled up into him, completely bare.
His fingers combed through her hair which was messy both from sleep and from the activities of the night before.
Sunlight was streaming through the slight crack in the curtains and Jake thought it made her look ethereal.
In a way he almost dreaded her waking up. He wanted to stay like this, with her in his arms, forever. He never wanted the night to end. 
He had to admit that there was a part of him that was afraid that she would wake up and be disgusted to find herself in his arms, to realise what she had done last night.
But then again, he was sure that there had been little signals that she liked him back.
“Jake?” The word was mumbled into his skin and Jake tensed up at it, worried by what would follow.
“Morning,” he whispered, leaning down to kiss her hair, worried that it may be his only chance to do so.
“Can you do me a favour?” Y/N requested. Jake’s heart rate increased, worrying over what it may end up being.
“Anything,” he sighed.
“Close the curtain a bit more?” She mumbled. But as he tried to move away from her to close the curtain and cover up the sunlight Y/N whined, gripping onto him tighter. 
“You wanted me to go.” He pointed out.
“Didn’t realise you’d have to move to do it,” she huffed. “I’ve changed my mind - stay with me.” 
Jake’s heart soared as he heard the affection, clear as day in her voice.
“Always.”

On my mind , in my soul - 16
Prompt:  “Love your work, On my mind in your soul!!! Prompts: A collar, a chair, and “Movement” by Hozier. Hope this works for you ♥️” That’s the words of a wonderful Anon whom I’ve decided will be the instigator to…well…you’ll see ;) Pairing: Loki x Burglar!reader. Content: Swearing as usual, loneliness, isolation, tiny bit of angst, jealousy, possessiveness, Jotun, lemons with “leashes”, some fluff ? A/N: All I wanna say is...it’s not my fault. Anon made me do it. Please reblog if you liked! You know the drill by now.
Tumblr media
Of halves and wholes
You move silently, body tight and breath shallow as you navigate the halls of the Stark Tower on your own. Dressed in your own training gear (which Romanoff had picked up at your place – without being asked to or told the address) the plan is to locate the gym because sitting cooped up is starting to drive you crazy. It’s been ages since Loki left with most of the Avengers. More than a week at least! After a heartbeat to count, you correct the estimation: three. Days. Shit.
This is worse than expected. The tower isn’t your home, and not even a thirsting curiosity can distract you from the discomfort of being somewhere that takes your freedom and control away. Not to mention the people. Despite some shady backgrounds here and there, the Avengers stand for law and order and although they don’t put the letter of the law before the spirit of it…well, shared interests aren’t exactly plenty.
It’s more of a feeling than anything else that makes you duck into a spin where your water bottle is launched through the air. But instinct or not, the container nearly finds a target below the belt of the only one of the heroes you can talk to: Barton.
“Close call,” he mutters, but there’s a smile on his lips, “guess ye’re not much safer to sneak up on.”
You push to your feet, a bit frazzled. “At least I’m not carrying weapons all the time.” Yeah, I’m not gonna feel guilty about this.
“Anythin’ can be a weapon.”
Barton lops the bottle back in a gentle arch, probably confident that you don’t stand a chance at beating him. Which you don’t. But still.
“That sounded like the Russian duo.”
The smile breaks with a snort of laughter. “Only one’s Russian. Sorta. But yeah, I see yer point.” He walks on the way you’d been headed. “So, let’s see what else yer capable of other than tamin’ an Asgardian and throwin’ bottles at nice guys’ private parts.”
It’s all junk.
Silently appreciating that you’ve got a guide now, you follow the archer down a few levels and into the private and (according to Stark) little gym.
Little my ass. Filled with the best equipment money can buy, the place is bigger than any training center has a right to be and sports several pit-like areas which probably are meant for sparring. Of course there are also an actual boxing ring, several machines where the pins in the weight still are at uncannily high numbers…not to mention an actual stack of sandbags by the wall. Bikes, treadmills, you could go on and eventually not even know what to call the different options for physical exercise displayed before you. At least the smell’s like it should be. Musty leather, dry sweat, and sanitizer. Your nose wrinkle at the familiarity, and a bit of the alienation you’d felt seeps away into the floor, leaving you calmer than you’d been for…since I got here.
“Alrighty, what ye know already?” Barton has found sports tape and wraps while you were ogling and is now waiting for you to hold out a hand.
You gingerly extend your left. “In terms of…what?”
“Self-defence. Martial arts.” He’s obviously done this before because his fingers move nimbly and without hesitation.
What do I know? Sure, you’d taken a few classes and generally kept in shape enough to impress any common thug or rich client getting handsy. Then there was the stuff you’d tried to teach yourself like when Loki was…the memory makes you sigh quietly at the realization that that isn’t so long ago even though it feels like a lifetime. Things could have been so different now if you’d made other choices. Would your life have remained what it once was? Would it have been smarter if you’d run away…or simpler if you’d given in to the demands of the Asgardian? He would never have opened up to you, bared his soul the way he had done when he explained why the Avengers forgave him…
“Hey?” Barton’s voice breaks through the storm of thoughts. “Where y’at?”
Both your hands are wrapped comfortably. “Sorry,” you mumble, “uhm…no experience worth mentioning.”
“Cool. Blank slate.”
You follow him into the nearest pit, finding that the floor is slightly padded. “Tabula rasa.”
“…s’that like Hakuna Matata?”
…   Loki’s PoV   …
What use is a wizard if he will not even ensure the quickest travel? Finally out of the dreadful confines of the jet, Loki can feel his body thrumming with impatience. The Jotun part of him is itching to break free from the restraints of the illusion and to be only with people he trusts unconditionally. And no, Thor - who is hollering after the raven-haired brother - does not exactly fit that bill.
Long strides bring him to the door that leads to what can be considered Loki’s quarters when he has to stay at the Tower. The god prefers his own home, but even he is a slave to practicality sometimes. And this time? A part somewhere in his chest does not disagree quite as much with returning to this place.
Without knocking, he barges in and is met with nothing.
A second stretches like elastic as Loki takes in the surroundings, finding no signs of foul play. The closet is ajar, a pair of jeans slung across the back of a chair next to it which has [Y/N] shoes tugged beneath. The wardrobe itself is near empty because neither resident had brought a lot with them.
This time the steps are rushed and nothing but pure self-restraint keeps the god from breaking into a running pace. Self-respect. Dignity. Loki tempers the roiling desperation, not wanting to let anyone else know exactly how great the urge to hold his mortal in his arms really is. But where is she? Stopping, he realizes that he simply has stormed off in any random direction which is a perfect example on how not to search for anyone.
“Jarvis!” the god snaps, for once appreciating Starks love for the disembodied servant.
...
I still watch you when you're groovin' As if through water from the bottom of a pool You're movin' without movin'
The Asgardian supposes he should be thankful for the facts that [Y/N] is learning to defend herself properly and for the fact that it is Barton teaching her rather than any of the others. The two men do not have a friendship, far from, but the archer had been the first to accept that Loki’s actions on Midgard had not been entirely of his own volition. And so a sort of unspoken understanding keeps them on common ground. Still, looking at the way the two sweaty bodies collide and wrestle for dominance awakens a jealousy within Loki.
Why do I stay in the shadow? It would be simple, stepping forward and claiming the woman he has come to consider his. [Y/N] would be furious if I treated her as a possession…and the god stays in the shadows to watch. And what a sight it is.
With careful perfection, she copies the trainer’s movements. Already, her motions are fluid and lithe, a show of confidence that empowers the once-upon-burglar more than Loki thought would still be possible, and he could swear on the Norns that no other sight is as captivating. Sleek muscles dance under glistening skin of back, arms, and shoulders with each strike or block. Strong thighs (that have been wrapped around his waist as pleasure wrecks the perfect body) powers each step as [Y/N] drives forward in a tantalizing onslaught. Full of potency and with satisfaction showing on the curved lips. My warrior.
A change in movement, bodies too close for Loki’s liking as the archer wraps the woman in his arm before spinning her away. Only as Barton backs out of the sparring match, does the Asgardian realize that he has marched to the pit. He can feel the jealousy spread like ice over his skin but can hardly find it in himself to stall the transformation…and either way: the bowman is leaving already.
“Loki?” The female voices reaches him through a fog of rage. “What’s up?”
She is so soft in his clawed hands, so pliable as lips meet with a force that clicks their teeth together. “Mine,” Loki mumbles in between the hungry kisses.
“Mm!” He does not allow her to break away fully. “M’not…a thin’…oh…you own!” Even so, she is returning each demanding action with a vigour.
“Still…mine…” [Y/N]’s skin is scalding on his lips as he trails the elegant jawline before latching onto the tender spot below the ear. “My pet.”
Nails scrape against his scalp, sending shivers down Loki’s spine. “No pet…” she whimpers, arching into him in response to the hands stroking her body, “got no collar.”
Finally pulling back, the god is met with a lust-blown gaze. Mouth half-open and chest rising and falling rapidly, she looks so prettily ruined. “Oh, but my dear…you do have a collar.”
And as he speaks, it appears in a shimmer of sparks: thick, green velvet edged with gold and no buckle or joint anywhere for [Y/N]’s probing fingers to find. He sees the challenge rise in her eyes, but simply decides to scoop her up onto a shoulder and carry her away.
… Reader’s PoV   …
Without anything sharp, there’s no way you can get the new accessory off and slung over the Jotun’s shoulder (Must be his “thing”) you really can’t do anything about anything. Instead you wait patiently. Almost patiently. With each step, Loki brings you closer to his room. With each step, he tells you all the dirty things you’ve been longing for while he was gone, making you squirm to prolong the contact as he massages your ass and legs, ghosting close to your clothed pussy when the nimble fingers explore the inside of the thighs.
But when the door finally does close, he doesn’t drop you on the bed, but perches you on a hard chair and before you know it, your ankles are tied to its metal legs and you wrists connected behind its back.
His face is so close you can recognize a turquoise shade in the sea of red. “I might not own you, love, but you’re still mine to do with as I please.” A large hand wraps loosely around your neck, thumb stroking the collar. “If you’re a good pet, I’ll reward you.”
I’ll show you “pet”. Like a dog wanting to lick its owner’s face, you try to rush forward but are stopped by resistance from the neckband. What the –? His smirk chases away the confusion – the bastard has tied the collar to chair too. You can’t move more than a few inches, leaving you completely at his mercy. There’s no doubt in your mind that he would set you free if you truly wanted him too…but you don’t.
When you move Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin' so flawed and free
Instead, you watch as he straightens before you, deliberately slow as he peels off one layer of clothes after the other before he stands naked.
“God,” you moan, following the ridged lines across his shape with your eyes.
His hand drops to stroke his growing cock lazily. “Correct. Your god, am I not?”
A nod is enough. And one more when he’s kind enough to ask if you want to taste him. Stretching as far as you can, you meet him with your mouth, tongue guiding him closer until you sit relatively comfortable again.
It’s messy at first, almost every lick and nibble along the shaft makes his erection bob up and down as if it too is nodding, but when Loki grabs the base the balance in power shifts slightly in your favour. Groans and subtle rolls with the narrow hips as your lips draw his cock in inch by inch until you nearly gag on it. Sure, size isn’t all and the dimensions of the Jotun erection can seem intimidating if it wasn’t for your intimate knowledge of how talented Loki is with it. Right now, however, you’re spellbound by the sinful sounds and twitches as you trace the ridges with your tongue and suck greedily to create a slobby vacuum.
“Such a…good pet…” His breath is ragged and thighs trembling as he dig the clawed hands into your hair for stabilization.
It’s hard to smile with a face full of cock and your jaws ache at the strain. “Mmmmm-mmm?” you hum before circling the crown with your tongue to lap up the salty taste of precum.
With a pop, he pulls out, stumbling back a step to take in the view of you there, drool dripping to your chin and a devilish grin because you may be tied up but aren’t powerless. Innocently, you bash your lashes up at him, making a deal out of admiring the athletic form. Damn, so fuckable. Your clit throbs with each heartbeat and you try to shift on the seat to soothe the need for some release.
Red eyes lock on the movement, glimmering with decisiveness. “Yes,” he whispers more to himself, “and good pets are rewarded.”
Falling to his knees between your legs, the cold of his body soothing on the hot skin, he kisses and licks the worst of the saliva from your face before tracing a path to the neckline of your top. Even through the layers of fabric, Loki can see the puckered nipples to bite them just hard enough for the sting to make you moan with want and distract you from the appearance of a blade. Rrrrrrrrp, and the front of your clothes splits to reveal your breasts and stomach. You would’ve scolded him if he hadn’t been so talented with his tongue and lips, making you arch your back and tilt your hips harder into the hand he’s holding onto you with.
When the god reaches the top of your shorts, there’s no denying the dangerous cold of the blade as it slips between skin and elastic fabric, but this time, you couldn’t care less that more clothes is ruined as long as it grants him access. Scraps fall to the floor, hand reach under your ass to lift and tilt your pelvis a bit and then…gooooods!
…   Loki’s PoV   …
Move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree
Such sweet sounds with each stroke of his tongue, a danced melange of broad, slow, piercing, and fast until her lust is dripping onto the seat. [Y/N] has fallen back and her entire body is undulating with power that is building up within, like water behind a dam waiting to be released. Fine.
Never stopping the delirious torture, Loki only needs a thought to undo the bonds - although the collar stays (he likes the symbolism of it). And before she understands what is happening, he lifts her to the bed. Only then, as he lays down on his back, does his mouth leave her folds so he can see her captured in his grip above him. Perfect. Eyelids flutter and breasts rise and fall rapidly against the tension of being on the verge for so long, already the woman is reaching for some way to find release. Mine.
The Jotun physique is domineering and raw in its need, but Loki manages to move agonizingly slow as he lowers her onto his cock and then setting a snail-like pace for the next dozen thrusts until she whimpers in frustration.
“Pleeaase!” The mortal’s gaze is clouded with lust and desperation.
How can he deny her? Rutting upwards, the speed and depth of each stroke are increased, and the much smaller hands hold on with all they can to his much bigger wrists. Pretty cries fall from her lips, growing louder as a warning, together with the tightness of her cunt, of the impending ecstasy. There! All of [Y/N] seizes and shudders with bliss. Back arched, breasts pushed upwards, and the sight is beyond anything the god could ever want.
Rolling clenches of her core pushes him over the edge with such a force that everything disappears in a darkness where the only reality is the blurry shape of the woman. Her heat and his cold mingles, and Loki knows he must have cried out her name, but it is not until he comes to his senses with the mortal in his arms that he realizes it. Never another.
“Mine,” he whispers into her hair.
The god can feel her smile against his chest. “Yours.”

K, N, Z! (Very late)
fasfd i appreciate the ask, because it reminded me that I had to actually respond to these things XD 
K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?
Hmmm. This... is tricky. On principle, I’m not going to say Zuko, even though it’s divine. I’m having a bit of a hard time with this one, because a lot of my favorite arcs don’t have many big dramatic Moments where you see them making progress, which is something Zuko definitely had, and which then makes him a really solid example of a development arc :P
Let me see. It’s a small book fandom, so I don’t know how many people are familiar with it, but I’ve REALLY had Moon from the books of the raksura on my mind lately. It got pulled extra hard to the forefront of my mind when I saw this tor article about the series (and why it’s a nice read especially in terms of present events). But it is absolutely AMAZING to me when I look at Moon in the earliest parts of the series, and how defensive and untrusting and insecure he is, how unsafe he always feels, and see how far he comes by the end of the series. In a lot of ways, this development arc is more about processing trauma rather than a villain-to-hero-esque change, which is what I tend to gravitate towards, but it’s just... so lovely. I can go on and ON about this series if anyone is curious, but any character who goes from bitterly, unhappily resigned to loneliness to being one of the well-loved centers of a close-knit community, who ADORE him even though he’s not what he would have been if he grew up normally.... Perfection
Apart from that, lessee. Cyclonus is ALWAYS and forever a favorite. He’s so angry and hurting at the beginning of mtmte, and watching him soften and open up is exquisite. Even though Starscream’s arc.... did not end in a way I appreciate, I definitely appreciate how far he brought himself, and the potential for how much further he could have gone. Everything about Jon and Martin in the magnus archives delights me. I do also love Seivarden from the Imperial Radch books, and how she really, really struggles to be less of an asshole, but she works so HARD and makes so much progress. Oh, and you know what, additional shout outs to Sir Francis Varney and Grisaille in the Dr. Greta Helsing books, because I’m also a sucker for characters who go from unhappy, resigned loneliness to gradually feeling like they deserve the happiness they’ve found, and that they want to KEEP it.
N - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice)
HMMMM. I’m always a sucker for fics that are the long side of short and explore kink from an emotional angle. I don’t write nearly as much of it as I used to, so I really ought to be stepping up my game too, but I love the way you can use that to dig deep into a character’s heart and open them up in a really vulnerable way. What else. I’m spoiled by homestuck, but I don’t see NEARLY enough crackshipping these days. Transformers is pretty good, if you dig for the gems, but it’s not the same as writing, like, feferi/meenah/karkat and realizing that eyyy, I’m not the first person to break in that relationship tag. And in general? More meta. I love me some meta. It can be hit or miss, because I’m more likely to get annoyed by meta than I am by fic or art, but I just LOVE being able to dig down into the concept of [a story] and pull analysis out. I’ll do it myself, given a tiny bit of encouragement, but that’s not the same
Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)
Oh god. Uhhhh, to build off the last one, I guess, PITCH ROMANCE. I know I’ve yelled about this before, but it’s been a while! I will NEVER stop advocating for aemula endurae as a transformers concept, now that we’ve got pale and flush romance in at least one canon, but I honestly want this in every fandom I’ve ever touched. It’s a little more embarrassing to yell about the potential of miscellaneous crackships in smaller book fandoms as opposed to something Old and Weird like transformers, but ummm... like, Moon and River have amazing potential, but their relationship is so ADVERSARIAL for ages and they both still dislike each other, but in a background sort of way, and meanwhile River is tackling a half-Fell progenitor to protect Moon, or Moon is barely able to stay upright but is still trying to guard a badly-injured River, and they both think the other is an idiot but still respect each other and uhhhhhh what if they kissed? A lot???
I love love love a good enemies to lovers or rivals to lovers story. But that’s not quite the same as what a pitch romance involves. Like, I’m deeply invested in Loki/Steve Rogers, and if you stick to canon at all, that pretty much has to be enemies to lovers. But in the main fic I follow for them, like, they adore each other to pieces and just got married and are INTENSELY sweet on each other. Or, I’ve been considering going back to my starbladejack verse soon (i want to, badly, my prose engine is just broken), and Windblade and Starscream are romantically involved... and spend lots of time in heated arguments and yanking each other’s pigtails. But if an external threat shows up, they’re going to present a united front. Two parties exasperatedly thinking ‘you’re terrible, you’re the WORST, why do i like being around you so, so much’. It’s a delicate thing to balance compared to a standard flushed romantic paradigm, but there are so many foe yay ships out there where bringing people around to solidly being on the same non-adversarial side strips the spice away from what the ship was originally, and I just think there’s a lot of interesting potential in preserving some parts of that initial oppositional spark inside a stable, caring (pigtail-pulling) relationship.

LONG ASS POST AHEAD!
I’ve finally met the man of my dreams, my beloved Cardinal Copia ❤ and I can’t believe it actually happened bc it was over so fast!
I was so nervous and the worst was I was running a fever and felt a bit weak but other than that I was good haha. I remember standing in a queue with the other VIP members and I think they were as excited as I was 😅 There was a big black curtain hanging in front of us and we were told that the Cardinal was right behind there and that as soon as we are with him we gotta be very fast and all. There was also a spooky music playing in the background which made me even more nervous.
As the first ones came back I saw them clutching their hands at their hearts, big smiles on their faces saying he is the most adorable man on earth. I was like oh god what is it gonna be like?
As it was my turn My heart was racing and just I saw him I had this weird feeling like I had just entered a ficitional realm. It was unreal and cool at the same time.
I greated him with a tiny 'hello Cardinal' he wanted to shake my hand and I, as stupid as I am, gave him the wrong hand bc I was holding the painting in the other one and probably bc I was nervous. I was like 'oh ups haha😅' and gave him the right hand then. He asked me how I was and I told him I was a bit sick and that the plague probably got me. I can’t remember if he said anything to this he may have chuckled a bit. Then I told him that I have a gift for for him. And he took the painting and looked at it for quite some time his eyes wandered down to the bottom of the picture and he read slowly:DarkButterflyOfNight. And he just said this like he heard it before but I didn’t ask him if he knows my silly art instead I asked 'Do you like it?' and he responded 'Yes you are good, you are really good'. Story continues in the comments😍
AND SHIT MY HEART EXPLODED RIGHT THERE I WAS MELTING INTO A PINK GOOP WITH ROSE PETALS IN IT. I don‘t know why I describ it like that but imagine my face was as red as my hair ( fever? In love? Maybe both? XD) but it was definitely lots of love and adoration that I felt.
He then went to the cross on the floor (best place for photo) and I went after him. I actually had another pose in mind but everything was happening so fast I literally threw myself at him and hugged him tight. He was so warm and comfortable nnngg😍😍😍😍😍😍 The second photo was also happening too fast I didn‘t even realize it was already taken bc for the second photo I could have looked up at him I guess haha but honestly I am very satisfied with the photos even if there is a bit of my awkwardness shining through but I hope it is not too obvious 😅
Right then I had to leave. He told me to take care and I said you too. And I just hugged him again and he hugged me back. Then he wished me lots of fun with the show and I said I will. Then I waved him goodbye.
Guys he is so cute, adorable, nice and downright hot and beautiful shit I mean he is perfect! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
You know I have been in photo ops and autogram sessions with actors but this was completely different. It was like instead of meeting Tom Hiddleston you would meet Loki you know? You are gonna meet your favorite fictional caracter in real life! And it was like entering a dreamworld.
It felt a bit like I was in a fanfiction and the fact that I wore a nun costum made it even more fictional but also beautiful! Yes I was literally living through a fanfic there, being a sister of sin and meeting the Cardinal for the first time❤
Despite having a fever this was definitely one of the best days in my life. It was a great and bombastic show and Ghouls were fantastic! I can’t wait to see them and the Cardinal again! MUCH MUCH LOVE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really also wanna paint our photo in my style but at the moment I can't do anything than laying sick in bed😅

Barista! Thor and Artist! Loki - Give away gift
@thorkilaufeyson wanted a fluffy piece and even though it is late, omg!! i LOVED writing it.
There was something to be said about the clear afternoon skies in the city. It was his favorite time to be here, honestly, where afternoon was just bidding farewell and the evening was being welcomed by skies of gold and navy blue.
They met together, somehow, never clashing, always complimenting even though the colors were starkly different. It was mesmerizing and he loved to sit there with his quick paint kit and try getting at least a little of the skies captured in his paintings.
Loki had always been drawn to water colors. There was something so delicate and precise about them that he was taken by them in the first art class he took. One had to know exactly how the stroke would go, each twist of the wrist or flick of a finger was measured and calculated. Even holding the brush in his hand was an art – it was graceful and the results were often directly linked to his mood.
He remembered the first time he came here to this café. He had been upset, uninspired and frustrated because he hadn’t been able to paint in over a week. He ordered his drink and sat down, huffing in frustration as he glared at the table top with a wrath that the poor thing didn’t deserve.
With his crossed arms and a pout upon his lips, Loki had raised his eyes to the window, to the landscape before him just to have something other than his failure before him. And he found it.
He would never forget the sky that day.
It was the kind if sky that made him hear orchestras playing in the background, in his opinion. A gathering of skies grey and large, resting above the bluest sky he had ever seen. Rays of gold shot out from behind it like a vivid dream turned reality.
Loki took his phone out and swiped for the camera, taking a picture so he could have it with him for as long as he wanted.
“Beautiful, right?”
He blinked, offended by the intrusion, and turned to the person who had spoken from behind him.
And suddenly, the sky wasn’t the bluest thing he’d seen today anymore.
Loki found himself looking into the eyes of an Adonis.
The color was so fantastic that Loki imagined ballads written about those eyes. Loki had thought that eyes that reminded him of glaciers would have been cold, yet this pair, the one focused on him was so brilliant and warm that it stunned him. It knocked him out of his own mind, he couldn’t speak.
He just stood there, looking at those eyes, a skyscape in itself, watching them crinkle at the sides when the man smiled at him.
“Sorry” he chuckled, leaning over “You forgot your change”
Loki stared dumbly again, noticing only then that this man – this Adonis – had an apron wrapped around a massive body and the café’s uniform hat on his head.
“Uh…” Loki began, forgetting his words.
“You’re welcome” the man chuckled and tipped his hat to him “Have a good day”
Dumfounded, Loki once more, only stared as he went off and left him there with his phone and his coffee and his change, staring after him.
He realized then that the hair he’d had up in a bun, was actually just as gold as the sun in his picture.
***
Loki quickly became a regular.
He visited every afternoon. Since he was an artist and a semi successful one at that, he found it easy to manipulate his hours so that the time between the evening and the afternoon was free for him.
And if he’d managed to find out the shift timings for the hot blonde god who had come over to him, well, that was just a bonus Loki would live with. He liked seeing his face, a skyscape, bright and beautiful, stunning in a way even skies couldn’t manage.
He always took Loki’s order and always made it a point to smile at him or wink at him, something that made his greeting a little different, little unique.
And Loki found it heart warming.
He found it inspiring so much so that he came one day with this small portable paint kit he’d ordered offline on impulse. He’d never used it before but he found he liked it now. It made it easier to be with his barista, too.
The kit itself was nothing too fancy but the way he – Thor, Loki loved that name – looked at it, made Loki love it more than he did before. The second Loki whipped it out of his small bag, Thor was over, his blue eyes wide with interest.
“What is that?” he asked, abandoning his post
“Art kit” Loki boasted about it as though it was always his favorite thing in the world “It helps me paint wherever I am, you want to watch?”
“Uh…” Thor looked behind him at the counter, then back at him, clearly torn “Give me a second”
Loki smiled a little as he went off and began to work on the little sketchbook he had with himself. He hummed a little to a song that was playing lightly in the café as he worked, managing to copy the skies from the window in water colors before Thor came over, smiling.
“Sorry” he said, putting a pastry in front of Loki “that took longer than I expected.”
“I didn’t notice” Loki shrugged
“Yeah cos you’re someone who gets noticed, not the other way around” Thor dug into the pastry
Loki looked at him a second and the lightest dusting of a blush rested on his cheek.
“How unoriginal”
“Really?” Thor asked “You want me to talk about your eyes?”
“I want you to swallow before speaking” Loki told him
At that, Thor blushed and Loki felt a minor victory at that. He went back to his painting, noting how slowly, Thor dragged his chair closer and closer until he was sitting right next to him. He kept working, however, never faltering in his creation until Thor placed a hand on the back of his chair.
Loki ruined a stroke and let out a soft gasp, pulling back and looking at Thor
“Damn it, Thor!”
Thor frowned “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you”
He pulled back immediately and looked at the painting, at the stroke that shouldn’t be there, the frown on Loki’s face.
“I – It doesn’t look bad” Thor winced “I’m sorry, I really am”
Loki exhaled and looked at the painting, hesitant to paint on it again.
“Oh, come on, please finish it?” Thor said “I’ll give you anything you want from the shop, on the house”
That perked Loki up and he chuckled
“Fine, but if it sucks when it’s done don’t blame me”
“I won’t” Thor smiled, looking at his eyes
He could see the painting reflected in Loki’s beautiful green eyes and he loved it. He loved this painting. His green gave it an ethereal quality. It was why he wanted the tiny painting, he was willing to bribe Loki to get it.
And one cupcake and half an hour later, Thor owned one of Loki’s masterpiece paintings.
***
Loki loved the window because of non Thor related reasons, too. For example, every day, just before the sun set, the skies and the streets melded together in a story, in a painting and he captured it immediately, with either his phone of his sketches.
Thor had thought that Loki only painted with his kit to spend time here, but one day, while Thor was working, Loki brought a large canvas, completed to the smallest detail, of the view from their café window.
It stunned Thor and made him gape as Loki came to show him, beaming at it in obvious pride.
He’d painted everything.
The curves of the roads till they couldn’t be seen, the buildings, the patterns of leaves and shade on the building, the strokes of paint on the very walls, the graffiti’s, the people, the cars, down to their license plates.
And he’d painted the sky with promises of blue shining through gold tinted clouds. The blush of pink at the very top made it magical and Thor noticed how it cast a realistic amber glow to everything the sunlight touched.
He loved it immediately.
He bought it instantly.
And the owner listened to him to have it displayed in Loki’s corner seat.
“I can’t believe you did this” Loki whispered the next day, sitting with Thor again “I’m touched”
Thor looked at him and winked.
He liked that smile on Loki’s lips.
***
After he had a taste of that smile, Thor felt like he needed to have it every day.
He knew eventually he would get in trouble, but he bought Loki a coffee every single day. He told him it was on the house and because it brought Loki there every afternoon, Thor didn’t mind.
He went over now, Loki’s order memorized, and set it next to him.
Loki raised his brow at him and smirked “You know you really need to stop flirting with me”
“I am not flirting” Thor smiled “I am just being extra nice to someone who is extra special”
Loki rolled his eyes but he felt the tinge of pink light his cheeks.
“That was stupid”
“But also effective” he said “you blush like one of those petals you paint, you know?”
“Stop” Loki chided, touching his cheeks “You’re breaking my concentration”
“Well, at least I’m breaking something” he winked at him “enjoy your coffee, its…”
“On the house, I know” Loki cut in, smiling “now go before you get fired”
“Alright, see you”
He waved at him and went back to his post. He kept giving Loki glances and studied him as he painted. Loki was fully relaxed at this moment, his shoulders were down, his eyes were lowered, his head tilted just a little.
He would tell Loki it was good he was an artist because he was a work of art himself.
He was sure Loki would slap him for it.
It made him smile and kept his day a little brighter.
And Loki, for his part, stole secret looks, too. The way Thor brushed his hair back, the way he smiled at every customer.
His smile was as bright as the skies in the painting behind Loki, hanging there, his work of art, in his coffee shop.
It warmed him, truly.
So when the next coffee arrived, Loki was ready but Thor only winked and turned to head away, because his manager was watching.
Loki waved his fingers at Thor as he went back, then returned to the painting he was making.
The sky was beautiful again.
***
Thor brought his coffee over a day later when something fell out of his pocket on his way back.
“Hoy, Thor!”
Loki reached over to pick it up just as Thor turned and the man winced
“Yikes, sorry”
Loki held the familiar paper, tough and slightly crumpled, opening it to see the painting he’d made, the one he’d ruined, still there, with the brush stroke on it.
“You kept it?”
“I keep it every day” Thor came over to pluck it from his fingers “I love it”
Loki smiled at him “You’re an idiot”
“Possibly” Thor put it back into his pocket “but you like it”
Loki snorted “I do not”
“You like it a little” Thor told him
“And you’re going to lose your job if you don’t get back to work”
“Deflection” Thor nodded “good strategy. Means I’m close”
“Close to?” Loki crossed his arms and cocked his hip
“Taking you out”
Loki rolled his eyes “In your dreams”
“Oh, my dreams are far worse” Thor chuckled as he stepped back “see you later, Lokes”
Loki grimaced at the name but said nothing as he went back to his art.
He worked there silently for a while again, but again he kept looking at Thor.
He knew the man stared, and Loki didn’t mind. He found he liked doing it too.
He already looked forward to meeting him tomorrow, deciding on saying yes immediately.
However when the sun began to set the next day, Loki came to see someone else in Thor’s usual spot and immediately the entire café felt darker. It felt wrong, all of it felt wrong.
He looked around, trying to catch sight of him but Thor wasn’t there and Loki bit his lip as he hesitantly went to take his usual seat, finding a jolt in his heart when a couple was already sitting there.
It was so strange, this unpleasant feeling inside him. He’d been so used to everything that this small, miniscule thing in his uneventful day upset him.
He had his paints with him and went to sit in a booth instead.
It somehow felt colder, foreign, more so when someone came to take his order rather than give him what he always wanted.
“Where’s Thor?” he asked instead of ordering from the person who came over
“Oh” she smiled “He’s out sick today but I could give you his number or something if you’d like?”
Loki felt his lips curve into a smile “Yes, I would like that. And tell me what his favorite coffee and dessert is…”
***
Thor groaned when the insistent knocking at his door didn’t stop.
He was in no mood for this! He was sick, he was gooey and disgusting and no human should ever be exposed to him this way. Humanity should never have know the shame of him being this ugly.
He was wearing one sock, his sleep shorts, a worn shirt and a blanket he’d pulled out of bed. His small one bedroom apartment was a mess, but he was past the point of caring. He wanted a bed and a TV and that was it.
His flu was unwanted but he couldn’t do anything about that.
Thor growled as the knocking continued and tried to brush back his messed up ruined hair.
“Alright, God damn it!” he said loudly as he unlatched his door “I swear to God if you’re delivering someone else’s pizza, I will…”
He froze when he opened it and saw Loki standing there, perfect, pristine, holding two cups of coffee and a bag that looked like it was from a pharmacy.
Thor slammed the door shut.
Loki smiled and pulled his lips inwards when he heard scrambling inside and thudding, a cuss, more thudding, hissing, coughing, and then…
Thor opened the door again.
He arched a brow when he saw the bad attempt at pulling his hair back – he’d made it worse – and the worse attempt at cleaning the apartment in the four seconds he had.
The blanket he had around himself was thrown behind the couch in a ball Loki could already see it but Thor leaned against the door, his face blotchy and his voice scratchy.
“Hey” he smiled “What – How did you find me?”
“Well” Loki walked into the apartment “I asked for your number and address and thought I would drop by. I heard you were sick”
“Stalker” Thor closed the door and turned to him, pointing to the bag “those are…?”
“Oh,” Loki set the coffee aside and opened the bag “lozenges, flu syrup, cough medicine, pain killers and…”
He pulled out a water color painting he’d done.
“Today’s skies”
Thor grinned and walked over to take the painting, laughing at it
“I love it”
“You’ll love it more when you feel better” Loki went to retrieve Thor’s blanket “Sit, I will care for you”
Nothing warmed Thor more than the care Loki showed, the lack of judgement about his messy apartment.
He put Thor on the couch and sat beside him, giving him his coffee, letting him be warm. Thor sat with his back against Loki’s side as they watched TV and hummed.
“So, is this out date?” Thor asked
Loki smirked “Well, you would have to ask me first”
He looked at him and Thor smiled
“Loki, would you like to go out sometime?”
“Sure” Loki beamed “as long as it’s not coffee”
“But as long as you bring your paints with” Thor reached over to touch his cup to Loki’s “I’m fine with it”
“Me too”
Loki took a sip and let Thor out his arm around his waist as they sat there, warm, comfortable and having their coffee, with Loki’s painting next to them

Snapshot of Me
Tagged by @mr-starkasm  (thank you for giving me something to do xD)
Rules: Tag 9 people you want to get to know better or just because you feel like it.
Relationship status: Recently engaged...again. -shrug- I guess I’ll attempt this marriage thing one more time.
Favorite Color: I like rainbows, however, if I had to pick just the one then I’d say blue like an aquamarine gemstone.
Lipstick or Chapstick: Neither, but in general I’ve used chapstick far more frequently than lipstick.
Last song I listened to: Fire by Barns Courtney 
Top 3 TV Shows: Current favorites include Gotham, Monk, and I Love Lucy. Truthfully, this list would be a lot longer if I wasn’t limited to 3. I’ve been a TV junkie since I was a kid as it offered a daily dose of mental escapism. Now it’s used for background noise as I meander around doing other tasks. 
Top 3 Characters: Tony Stark, Loki, Winter Soldier/Bucky Barnes (Marvel). Iron Man, Batman, Spider-Man (superheroes). Tony Stark/Iron Man, Harry Potter, Amaterasu from Okami tied with Link from Zelda (general). Sensing a pattern here? I AM TONY STARK TRASH AND I DON’T CARE WHO KNOWS!!! 
Top 3 Bands: Varies but currently Panic! At the Disco, Fallout Boy, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Books I’m Reading: “The Forbidden Flame” by Elizabeth Hollows AKA STARSdidathing from AO3. If you’re into FrostIron, especially Loki pining for Tony, then I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you check out her works on AO3 :D
Pet Peeve(s): Inconsideration. Examples: If you don’t have manners or are not willing to learn from each other, then get the fuck outta my face. If you only think of your own needs/wants/feelings without any thought for others, then get the fuck outta my face. If you think or treat others “lesser than” (I’m not talking about expertise in a practical sense), including animals, then get the fuck outta my face.   
Fastest way to piss you off: Attempting to trivialize my needs, wants, and feelings in any way, shape or form. It could be a dismissive gesture, violating my personal boundaries, being told outright what to think/feel, or the sorely misconstrued attempt at being emptily optimistic at me which only serves to contradict my experience. My experiences are mine and my pain does not go by anyone else’s schedule. 
I know how to discern when someone is being genuine or malignant, so I’m not prone to biting off everyone’s head...but! People who do this go straight to my ever-growing shit list. 
Funniest rumor/assumption about you (that you know of): When people assume I’m quiet out of compliance and oh so understanding and patient with everyone. I have a cold, quiet anger; I do not bluster because that gives away me plans for vengeance. I can act empathetically when needed to serve a purpose, I share it genuinely with only a close few. My tiny raisinette of a blackened heart is predominantly filled with pettiness and rage. :D  
What made you smile today?: Being with my kitty and thinking about various Tony Stark ships to draw next :3
I tag: @beir, @mto-art, @kaci1ynn, @akira-of-the-twilight, @27dragons, @tisfan, @potrix-the-queerschlaeger, @mintmintdoodles, and ANYONE who wants to participate.  Normally I keep this portion blank and offer a general invite, but decided to tag the first few names that popped into my head (or popped up on the auto-fill list lol).
