Heeey not that you have to do this but let me throw a wrench in the happiness and ask how would Loki act if there were complications during the birth? (If you hadn't already done this?)
i’m so mad at how long this took. Frigg’s birth. FINALLY. she’s been floating in existence for ages, now she can actually be BORN and i’m actually HAPPY WITH THIS
warnings: birth. death. life again. blood. crying. pain. general angst. a happy ending. complications and (spoiler) kind of child death, but only for a little bit. everything ends happily with everyone alive.
disclaimer: i am not a doctor. i have never given birth before nor delivered a baby. forgive me if this isn’t perfectly accurate. okay enjoy
Elliot is five now and Loki still can’t believe it; he’s raising a child. With someone. And honestly, doesn’t seem to have screwed anything up too badly so far.
I mean, he must be doing something right—he’s only about a month away from getting another one.
It was a…different pregnancy.
See, Elliot was right on time. His birth went as expected, he arrived the day before your due date, you went to the hospital, everything went smoothly (for the most part. Loki still won’t forgive himself for his own behavior, but you’ve been slowly working to mend that tear).
By the end of the night, you and Loki had a beautiful, tiny, healthy (blue) baby boy.
Your daughter—Sleipnir, you’ve jokingly decided to call her until you can settle on an actual name—still has about three weeks to go.
Everything has been heightened, with this one. The pains and aches are ten times worse, the cravings and morning sickness and drowsiness have reached catastrophic levels, and you’re huge.
You feel huge, ready to pop, which is only worse than the reality of the fact: this baby must be planning on being bigger than your first, plain and simple.
The days are dragging and so are you, slugging along towards the finish line when this baby finally decides she’s had enough. You move slower than the speed needed to feel useful in any way, shape, or form, and Loki does his best to slow to your speed, too—the two of you struggle out of the house every once in a while, a dashing prince and an upright snail with its shell on backwards.
“Any day now,” Loki always smiles. He says that from morning till night, he has been for the past two weeks. “Any day now.”
Then he kisses you and tucks you into his arms, a firm hold on your enormous belly until you get too hot and sweaty and annoyed being so close to him and wiggle away to kick the blankets off.
The nightmares started with four weeks until the due date.
After the first one you thought you were in labour, waking up in a cold sweat with a sharp pain in your stomach—you screeched and smacked Loki awake and Elliot came running—but a few moments of gaining consciousness reminded you that you had simply been stabbed, in your dream.
False alarm.
That’s okay, Loki had said, rubbing your back and kissing your temple, sound every alarm. Any day now.
Can’t wait to hug blueberry, Elliot had helpfully added.
A couple nights later you dreamt you managed to actually birth this child, but when the doctor handed her to you, she was nothing more than an unrecognisable lump of cerulean flesh. No eyes, no mouth, just something alive and pulsing with little pudgy arms that reached right for your face.
Loki had to wake you up from that one.
You’re screaming, he whispered. You’ll wake Elliot, is everything alright?
You burst into tears and made Loki put you back to sleep with a spell.
More and more nights passed and sleep became more and more scarce; every time you closed your eyes, some new horror would take place: you popped your belly with a needle and it flew around the room with the squeal of a deflating balloon, the baby was born beautiful but Loki couldn’t see her, Elliot yelled “blueberry!” and ate the baby, the baby was born made of solid ice and you dropped her, sending her across the floor in a trillion tiny shards of ice.
You decided on no more sleep.
Now with only a few more weeks until something has to happen with her, you’re massively sleep deprived and begging Loki to take you to Asgard for the birth.
“It’s too dangerous,” he says, pushing you back into bed. “The baby is too developed for that kind of travel while still inside you.”
He always says that.
Deep down you know he’s right, but you’re terrified and refusing to admit it. So you lay with your back turned to him every night and he lets you, knowing how mad you are, and just traces down your spine when he thinks you’re asleep.
You don’t sleep anymore, but you don’t say anything.
Three weeks until the due date and you can’t bear the exhaustion anymore, which has only coupled with a biting cold that follows you everywhere to make matters worse.
It is you, you know it, it’s inside you and you can’t escape it no matter how many blankets you hide under, and eventually you simply…slip away, off into a deep, freezing sleep that slows your heart and nearly stops your breathing altogether.
Something is hurting today, squeezing and pulling and punching. Maybe just your daughter eager to get into the world.
Huddled in one corner of the couch under an all-encompassing heap of blankets, neither Loki nor Elliot know where you’ve gone—mini-mountains of blankets have become the norm around the house—and they panic while you dream.
Oh, bliss.
You’re back in bed, warm, rested, empty, and staring into Loki’s mesmerising eyes.
“I love you,” you try to tell him, like you just came to that conclusion, but your voice comes out in a muffled gurgle, thick underwater. Another concentrated pain hits just then, but you ignore it.
He nods, slowly.
“Don’t leave me, Loki.”
This time, a shake of the head.
His hand finds your shoulder as your eyes immediately well with tears, a once comforting gesture that this time freezes your skin over with a biting ice. A pained whimper leaves your throat over the crackling of your frozen skin.
“Beautiful girl,” Loki finally whispers.
He brings his fist crashing into your shoulder, and your arm shatters into a million pieces.
Smiling, he flicks a piece of ice from the dip of your waist.
“Don’t break me,” you plead, unable to move but trying to wake yourself up. Just a dream, just a dream.
This time his hand cups your chin, fingers digging into your jaw as you freeze over and lose the ability to speak, and he leans closer, letting his lips brush your frozen ones: “beautiful, broken girl.”
Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.
His hand tightens one notch too tight and you shatter, half your face hollow and broken and melting in Loki’s palm.
You break beautifully, he whispers, and you feel yourself floating back towards consciousness. Hush, my sweet…shh…
Nearly to the surface but you’re still underwater, losing air and fighting to reach the top and you finally do, wrenching your eyes open to the light and gasping for breath.
Loki’s stroking a hand from your temple to your cheek, staring intently at you.
This is awake, you recognise, and Elliot pats your belly like a bongo, humming quietly to himself.
“Are you alright?” Loki moves more of the blankets over you; despite your sweating, you’re freezing. “I tried to bring you out of that one as fast I could.”
Yes, you want to say, thank you, but your throat is dry and you still feel like you’re underwater. Hell, your sweats still feel wet and you still feel broken.
Broken. Break.
Broke.
Still underwater.
You choke up a mouthful of water from the dream and grab a fistful of Loki’s shirt.
“My water broke.”
Loki blinks in stunned silence, Elliot sings “bum buh dum dum dum” and keeps patting your belly.
“That’s very clumsy of you, momma.”
“Now?” Loki asks incredulously, finally finding his voice. “It’s still too early—”
You shake your head, fingers scrabbling against his chest as your breathing quickens. “Now, Loki. Now, now.”
Now becomes a concept much too terrifying to accept—now is too early. Now is too soon.
Now should’ve been on Asgard, but now it’s too late.
Hospital, Loki hears himself suggesting, mind going numb at the thought of it. Hospital means driving and doctors and needles and cuts from paperwork and cold, drab white rooms with vomit pink curtains, a paper cup of water and sitting hard on the almost-linoleum floors.
The hospital would have been fine—in three weeks.
“No other option,” you grit out, eyes clenched shut and holding tight to your belly. “She’s not waiting for me.”
The first time you went through this process, your water broke at work and Loki was there in an instant, shouting at people to get out of your way while you giggled all the way down the elevator and into the car, too giddily excited for your baby to recognize much of the pain.
It helped keep Loki calm, too, allowing for him to drive to the hospital with few issues (maybe a little fast, but that was expected) and even as your contractions worsened and you slumped lower and lower in the passenger seat, you kept looking over at him and catching his eye. He’d lift his eyebrows—swerve around a corner—and you’d blurt out a laugh, cover your face with your hands, and take a few deep breaths.
This time, the smiles and excited laughter aren’t so present. Minus Elliot, whose mouth opens wider as he slowly comes to realise what the two of you are talking about.
His dad can’t quite seem to find the right angle to help you up—but you’re fighting against him, pushing his chest away instead of pulling him closer, eyes clenched shut and teeth gritting together.
Here, you ask, no…hospital—here? TAKE ME TO ASS-GARD—then you shout TRAITOR and break down in sobs, curling back around your belly.
“Elliot,” Loki smiles, a hand smoothing over your hip. “Could you give us a moment? I’ll call you if we need help.”
The little boy nods with a bright smile, flashing Loki a thumbs up before scurrying into the hallway—where he sits with his ear to the door, his head starting to throb.
“Take me to Asgard,” you hiss.
“I can’t.”
“TRAITOR!”
“It’s not safe—”
“This isn’t safe! She’s practically frozen to me, I’m—I’m so cold.”
Loki’s voice drops to a gentle murmur, only the mild timbre of his words making it through the door. Why do you hate me?? you’re crying, and nothing Loki says or does can console you, leaving Elliot on the other side of the door spiralling deeper and deeper into the worst of Loki’s panic and your rage.
His little hands start to shake and he takes a couple deep breaths, trying to ignore the gut-twisting pain shooting through his small frame.
“Momma?”
“I bet you planned this—”
“Mommy…”
His dad tries to soothe you but the pain is worsening and your daughter wants out, now. She’s moving quickly, an angry little thing already, not waiting for you.
“Just breathe, love. Just stand with me, let’s get you to the car—”
“Shut up,” you snap at Loki, stopping his sweet nothings and pointless reassurances in his throat. “Just have her here.”
Elliot tries to call for you again, trying to warn you because this already hurts and he got sent outside to feel your pain all alone, but you’re feeling it worse and more concentrated as Loki rushes to process what you’ve just asked of him.
“No, but the hospital—”
“Shut up,” you hiss through painfully gritted teeth. “Here. I can’t stand.”
“You would rather…” his hand stops on your hip and holds tight. “Here? Really?”
“You’re a god,” you grit out, eyes clenched shut as your daughter goes cold, “you know everything. I’m not gonna make it to a hospital. Get her out of me, Loki.”
Something cracks through the room amidst Elliot’s sobs.
“Fu—damn it,” Loki hisses, and wrenches his hand from yours.
Swollen and turning the most grotesque shade of yellowish-purple, his thumb is bending the wrong way.
“You broke my thumb,” he grunts from between your knees, blinking back tears.
It’s been years since anything actually hurt him, much less broke something, but you were shivering so violently and clutching onto his hand so tightly that it only took one push to make you snap his thumb.
“Sorry,” you choke, unable to find it in you to care too much. Later you’ll croon over him and kiss his bruises but for now, you’re pushing his child out of you. And she’s cold, so one finger can’t possibly be that bad.
The broken finger brings the whole birthing process to a quick pause as Loki scrambles to make some kind of splint for his thumb before getting back to you.
“Deep breaths,” he says under his breath, “deep breaths.”
Both of you follow his instructions, Loki’s lips moving rapidly in muttered incantations, trying to keep you from freezing over completely and the mess to a minimum, dull your pain, make this go as smoothly and correctly as possible.
A slumped, sobbing little pile on the other side of the door, Elliot has had to go forgotten for the moment. Three weeks too early, the baby is so tiny that the slightest wrong movement or slip in focus could end her life before it starts.
“Stay with me,” he murmurs when your head starts to roll limply back onto the floor. A deep breath splits him in two and he sends the duplicate to your side, already exhausted just from trying to keep you conscious enough to push.
“Keep breathing,” it whispers, stroking a hand along your frozen cheek, “almost there. Stay with me.”
Another push and you taste blood; must’ve bit your tongue amidst all the teeth chattering. Elliot goes quiet behind the door, then shrieks.
“MOMMA, BLOOD!”
“L-Lok—Elliot, get—”
“Shh, I’ve got him. Keep pushing, deep breaths.”
He hides his wince of pain and splits once more, sending a third bit of himself out the doorway to comfort the little boy while the other two keep trying to get this new baby into the world.
Your throat is closing in on itself, slowly but surely asphyxiating you and your fingers scratch at Loki’s broken hand, reaching for the real Loki, scratching his arm when no words will come out. He can only spare a single, quick glance up at your terrified face, eyes bloodshot and lips cracked from the dry iciness of the room.
Your head lolls, eyes rolling back in your head as you choke.
“Stay with me,” he pleads, squeezing your knee with a blood-covered hand. “Almost there.”
One last push and Loki shouts something in a language you can’t understand, but there’s a new weight pressing on your lower stomach for half a second, a blinding flash of blood-red light on the backs of your eyelids, and the world goes dark.
“No,” Loki croaks, and you hear one shrill, tiny cry from his arms, a heartbreaking sob from your son behind the door, and everything falls silent.
“No.”
She’s tiny.
Barely bigger than the palm of his hand.
The newborn should be squirming, should be crying and screeching in need of her mother, but she lays limp in Loki’s hands.
“No,” he whispers hoarsely. “No, no, breathe. Breathe.”
His fingers press gently on the slicked skin of her belly, once, twice, three times; he turns the tiny body on her side, trying again to get the little chest to lift with air.
No movement.
“No, nonono, no, no.”
A quick slice of the hand cuts the umbilical cord and it falls from her fragile neck. Loki cradles her close, staggering to his feet and holding her to his chest, bloody hands trying to bring the life back to her lungs and pressing her to his heart, trying to remind her’s how to function.
“Please,” he whispers, shakily running a hand over her tiny, slick head. “Stay with me, no, stay with me...”
You’re unconscious on the floor, lying in a pool of your own blood and Loki can’t be with you both, his duplicates phasing out of existence as he loses the strength to keep them up. Elliot yells again when the one he was with disappears, banging his little fists on the door, and Loki slumps against the far wall, staring at you with tears streaking his face.
You look dead. The baby in his arms is, and he can’t bring himself to look at her.
He hadn’t even gotten to see her eyes.
“Come back to me,” he pleads, trembling fingers running down her tiny body, ten toes, ten little fingers that should’ve curled around his, a little button nose and a dusting of dark hair on her head, blood on her cheeks.
Skin blue as the deep ocean, cold as a corpse.
“Breathe—”
Her fragile form presses against his chest and he holds her closer, trying to warm her, press her to his skin, to his pounding heart.
“Please. Breathe, breathe.”
The baby’s arm drops from his grip.
“No, no, stay with me…”
Should’ve gone to the hospital. Should’ve gone to the hospital.
It might be better if you don’t wake. He can’t face you after nine months of hell with nothing but a dead body to show for it.
Elliot’s finally given up. Loki can see him, lying in a heap against the crack under the door, silently shaking and staining the hardwoods with his tears.
His house falls silent.
For a moment he just sits there. Defeated. Alone. The tiny body of his daughter in his hands, your unconscious form bloodied on the floor.
Should’ve known better.
Frigga.
Frigga would’ve known better.
“Mother,” he chokes out, eyes closing as he cradles the lifeless baby to his heart. “Frigga. Allmother, all–all I had—help me.”
The last pleas fall into the silent house, soaking into the walls and fleeing through the windows as Loki repeats it, over and over and over:
Help us. Help us.
Let us have our daughter.
The very air in the room stills. Only dry sobs, with no tears left to spill break the brittle silence.
Don’t wake up, Loki finds himself hoping as he stares with an empty gaze at your unconscious body. I can’t explain this.
Elliot can feel it, he knows it hurts him, but it’s a good thing he can’t see this horrid scene, this murder scene in their home. His father slumped in a corner with dead eyes, a tiny, bloody baby limp in his arms. His mother in a pool of blood, unmoving.
Loki closes his eyes.
He’s seen enough.
Frigga. Please.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Then, a tiny cough.
Another cough and the tiny body shudders in his hands, curling in on herself, little hands curling into fists, her mouth opens in the tiniest scream—
His daughter cries, and it’s the most beautiful sound Loki has ever heard.
“Oh,” Loki chokes, tears stinging his eyes, “oh, my—”
Cradling her to his heart, he finally breaks. He’s shaking, trembling, laughing and crying all at once as he listens to his daughter cry, feeling her tiny hands reaching blindly, her little belly lifting with each shaky breath.
“Loki.”
It’s a hoarse croak from across the room, and you manage to lift a hand towards him.
“Oh,” is all he can choke out again, “you—”
His laughter mixes with your daughter’s cries and he crawls towards you, clutching the baby to his heart and running a shaking hand over her to wash her with a spell.
“Frigg,” Loki whispers hoarsely, grabbing your hand with his free one, broken thumb be damned. “Can we name her Frigg? Frigga—Frigga saved—”
“Frigg,” you breathe, and Loki lays the wriggling newborn on your chest. “Frigg, oh, you’re perfect…”
Loki carefully helps prop your back up against the couch, clutching your hand and pressing his forehead to yours, eyes clenched shut.
“Thank you,” he whispers.
Frigg. A perfect name for the perfect child, a tiny, mewling little girl clutching at your chest and Loki can’t look away, stunned by the ease with which she shifts to her more human form when you cradle her close. 
Kneeling by your side, your hand in his clutched to his heart, he keeps his forehead against your temple and sends a silent thank you to the only mother he ever knew.
“Loki,” you murmur, the baby nuzzling against your neck, “she’s so beautiful. So beautiful.”
He can only choke out another teary laugh, nodding and squeezing your hand, not ready to let go yet as he kisses your forehead. 
A quiet moment passes just soaking in the fact that your little girl is breathing, you staring at her tiny movements while Loki lets himself catch his breath against your cheek. Right now, he can’t hold you tight enough.
You manage to tear your gaze away from Frigg and catch sight of Elliot laying against the crack under the door, and a pang of guilt twists your heart. 
“Loki,” you whisper, reaching up to stroke his tearstained cheek, “Elliot. Go get Elliot.”
He nods, eyes still tightly shut as he cradles your face in his hands and kisses you with a sharp inhale, breathing you in. When his eyes open, they have a new spark to them and he pulls himself to his feet, shaking his head with another disbelieving laugh at the sight of his wife and his daughter, alive, together, breathing, hearts beating. 
“Elliot,” he finally calls out, turning to open the door and stopping short when he sees his son curled up on the floor. “Elliot. Oh, kærr, come here.”
He bends and scoops the little boy into his arms, hugging him close as Elliot buries his face in Loki’s neck. 
“You have a new sister,” Loki softly tells him, rubbing his back and carrying him over to you. “What do think of the name Frigg?”
Your son just sniffles and hugs Loki tighter, not letting go even when Loki carefully sits besides you and Frigg, conjuring a warm blanket for the newborn.
“I know it’s not Blueberry,” you add, carefully wrapping her and keeping her as close as possible for the most body heat. “But I think it’s pretty good. What do you think, kiddo?”
“S’like gramma,” he sniffs, little voice muffled in Loki’s neck. “Right?”
Loki manages another laugh. “Right. Frigg. Just like gramma.”
Elliot eventually lifts his head, rubbing his red eyes with the back of his hand and leaning against Loki’s chest, staring at his new sister. 
“She’s real little.”
“She’s early,” you reply with a smile, thumb stroking over her soft head. “She should’ve been here next month, but she got too excited to meet her brother and couldn’t wait.”
A tiny smile tugs at Elliot’s mouth.
“Hi, Frigg.” 
Loki catches your gaze, the softest of smiles playing at his lips. 
“I’m gonna be your brother,” Elliot continues quietly, and sits up on Loki’s lap to look at Frigg a little closer. “You’re so tiny. Can I hold her?”
You chew your lip, glancing back up at Loki. “She needs all the warmth she can get right now, what do you think…?”
Loki just nods, carefully taking the bundled baby from your arms, laying a hand on her head as it glows gold. “I’ll take care of that,” he replies, and brushes his lips gently over her head. “Sit down here, Elliot, right next to mom.”
Elliot does, scrambling to sit crisscross against your side, arms reaching for Frigg. “Ready, ready.”
“Careful,” Loki warns him, gently placing the newborn in Elliot’s arms. “Support her head, right, keep your arm just like that.”
Elliot’s cheeks are puffed out as he holds his breath, focused strictly on perfecting the way to hold his baby sister, staring at her tiny nose and shut eyes. 
Not bothering to hide your smile, you lean in close, your hand under his arm to help support her head, just in case. “Isn’t she beautiful?”
Elliot lets out his breath slowly, brows furrowing. 
“Nah, not really.”
Loki’s eyebrows shoot to his hair and you burst out laughing. 
“She’ll look completely different in a couple weeks,” you laugh, planting a kiss on the top of Elliot’s head. “She’s about to get really, really cute, don’t worry.”
Smiling softly, Loki shifts around to sit on your other side, draping his arm over your shoulders and leaning over to kiss your temple. “She is beautiful,” he whispers, stroking the back of one finger over her tiny cheek. “She is. We made that.”
“Frigg,” you whisper back. In the arms of your son, she sleeps quietly, tiny eyes shut tight. “Thank you, Loki. For everything.”
He takes your hand and brings it to his lips, kissing the back of it. 
The makeshift splint on his broken thumb rubs rough against your skin.
“Loki!” You grab his hand and he winces. “Your thumb, oh, I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry—”
“It’s fine,” he laughs. 
“No, it’s not, oh my god, I’m so, so sorry—”
“My first broken bone in a thousand years.” A finger under your chin, he tips your head up and catches your lips with his. “I’d say it was worth it.

“Lucifero is a threat? HA! That nitwit has been begging for my position for millenniums!”
“Tree of Qilphoth was my creation. I created that thing so I could occupy those scoundrels”
“I am the white devil”
“I see things that nobody else sees”
The true ruler of the underworld Helreignn
Old Norse for “Hell powered”
Helreignn is classified to be male.
Helreignn is the second known ruler of the underworld. His mother was the first
God of Arrows
Alias
Helreignn Lokadóttir
Title(s)
Son of Hel & Balder
Grandson of Loki
King of the underworld
The white devil
Devil god
Powers
Arrow creation & manipulation
This ability allows Helreignn to create not the weapon arrows but the symbol arrows paceifcally red arrows in any space at any time and can be active during conscious or unconscious hours. The limitation of creating arrows is pettiness. The level of harm these arrows can cause is astounding, they can pierce through anything or anyone even universes within seconds ending lives of billions.
Light manipulation (not awaken)
Inherited ability allows the user to manipulate any light source weather its the sun or stars or any celestial object he can manipulate as well as borrow light from a light mage and use it as his own toy.
Shapeshifiting
Another inherited ability shape shifting grants Helreignn the gift to transform into any creature who he had killed in the past taking these forms and use them to his advantage to interact with living souls on the mainlands.
Nigh omniscience
Not much of a battle power but a alternative advantage of being king of the underworld. Helreignn sees all that has been going on meaning while he’s off destroying everything he already knew that it had happen take Julius’s and Parti fight for example. Helreignn knew Julius had lost despite being a different world.
Underworld formation
Owning the ninth realm Helreignn holds the ability to create anything in the underworld for example the tree of qilphoth was a mechanism he created to occup te devils in abesents another one was the devil binding ritual that wasn’t supposed to be for other devils but accidentally got leaked.
Abilities
Power takeover: if Helreignn chose not to have children Helreignn needed another way to pass on his rights of being the devil king to a mortal. A mortal under 8 months this happens pretty fast and is really simple escaping to the inner void of that mortal meaning their soul are intertwined forever
Death mana: if a regular human were to approach Helreignn in a close radius Helreignn’s mana is that sinister and aggravating they would die before even touching him
Border crossing: another advantage of the devil king he can cross the boarder to the mortal realm and return back to the underworld whenever he pleases.
General information
Species
God/Jörmungadr
Relatives
Hel (mother)
Balder (father)
Odin (grandfather on fathers side)
Frigg (grandmother on fathers side)
Thor, Höðr, Víðarr, Váli, Hermóðr, Bragi, Týr, Fenrir ,Jörmungandr (uncles)
Loki (grandfather on mothers side)
Angrboða (grandmother on mothers side)
Nanna (step mother)
Forseti (step brother)
Appearance
In the picture up above Helreignn is appeared to be a while silhouette. Unlike other devils Helreignn has a smoother image and carry’s different characteristics. He has 10 horns in total equaling 5 sets of horns laid across on top of his head. 3 sets of wings equaling 6 wings in total, the middle set of wings appear to have corpses wrapped in string hanging on an angle (and no I didn’t duplicated the corpses ;) ) The third set of wings tell a different story, the right wing is whole while the left wing almost appears to be as if someone chewed apart of it off. Another interesting feature is that a part of Helreignn’s stomach is exposed revealing the bones. Devils commonly have long thin tail though this isn’t seen on the image Helreignn has a short tail. The current pose you can always see Helreignn pull is one where his arms are tucked into a fabric that only covers his arms hiding the true portrait.
Personality
There’s only one word that could summon up Helreignn’s personality and that is numb. Helreignn is simply numb. Helreignn dosen’t care about anyone, he dosen’t care about other devils, he dosen’t care about killing people, he kills because he dosen’t care, he can be emotional or emotionless. Helreignn makes unpredictable actions because he has no care. But there is one thing that drives him is proving others wrong or hearing other incorrect. An example would be hearing Nacht calling Lucifero the final devil the only thing he did was laugh over and laugh until he cried.
Traits
Psychopath
Observant
Intelligent
Wise
Good hearted.
Relationships
Devils
Lucifero
Helreignn and Lucifero have been acquaintances for millenniums. Helreignn views Lucifero as a spoiled brat always having this talk going to “destroy the world” Lucifero dosen’t gets that way and just ridiculously annoying always on some high horse thinking that Lucifero is the strongest among the kind. For this round he was actually happy Asta and Yami won against that loser host
Megicula
Helreignn never liked Megicula he’s always thought of Megicula as childish and a little too “nice” casting curses that will only kill you in 12 months Helreignn finds that method boring, another topic Helreignn hates is human experiments and always calls out Megicula for having such a low standard.
Zagred
Helreignn isn’t interested in him at all and just thinks of him as a dumb idiot for the way he massacred the elves.
Zenon’s devil
Forgets his name every time
Liebe
Helreignn dosen’t care about him but does pities him and can relate to him with the lose of his mother.
Humans
Helreignn couldn’t give one care
Facts
If Helreignn were to go into his devil form in the actual world he might accidentally kill the whole universe
Helreignn dosen’t like to see the faces of dead people
Helreignn is a good actor pretending he has emotions
Some of his powers were inherited from each of his parents and grandfathers . Balder - light manipulation. Loki - shapshifiting. Odin - nigh omniscience. Hel - underworld formation.
Helreignn is unaware of his father existence assuming that he didn’t have a dad
Helreignn is part god, part giant

just a question regarding the loki imagines ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°),, if loki lives for thousands of years , what happens to his mortal wife and elliot? do they just die within their 100 years or so?? you might’ve answered this before but I was just curious...absolutely adore your writing!! xx
it’s the mortality talk. happy reading... (the read more tag isn’t working i’m sorry! it’s in the wrong place and i can’t move it :( )
warnings: talk of death/mortality, mentions of childbirth, poor editing
“Elliot’s finally down. He put up a fight this time.”
You glance up, watching Loki peel his shirt off. “That’s not like him.”
“Didn’t want to leave his Blueberry,” he chuckles. “Can’t blame him.”
A soft smile on his lips, he settles onto the bed beside you, pressing a kiss to your temple before laying his head on your shoulder to gaze down at the tiny baby girl in your arms.
“She’s a hungry one,” he murmurs, reaching down to cradle her head as she feeds. “Are you still okay?”
You nod with a small smile. You’re alright, all things considered. As okay as someone who nearly lost their child can be.
Loki wraps his arms around you for a moment, lifting you carefully to set you between his legs, resting against his chest. You don’t protest, focusing on keeping Frigg close, and you feel him kiss the top of your head, run a hand down the back of your neck.
That all-too-familiar warmth curls around your shoulders and you can’t help but sink back into him as the tension gives way to a relief you haven’t felt for nine months.
It’s a somber evening.
You want to celebrate, revel in the fact that your daughter is alive, in your arms, but...neither you nor Loki can manage to keep a smile on your face for more than a few minutes at a time.
Neither of you want to bring it up, either.
So you sit there, giving your daughter any life you can offer, and Loki cradles you both close against him, arms under yours and head against your cheek, his breath tickling your skin.
He brushes a finger over Frigg’s cheek as she sucks, and her whole body jerks, a tiny hand hand flying out to grab Loki’s finger.
“Ow.”
You grimace, the sudden movement not exactly comfortable, and try to reposition her for a bit more relief.
“Sorry,” Loki whispers, dropping a kiss to your cheek.
Silence settles heavy over the room again, both of you staring at this miracle of a baby in your arms, gripping onto Loki’s finger with a tiny death-grip.
You catch your bottom lip between your teeth.
“Loki...”
He grabs your chin in his free hand and kisses you, hard.
“We don’t have to talk about it.”
Your eyes sting when he pulls away, trying to give you a steady smile, a reassuring gaze, trying to be everything you need.
That only makes this harder.
“Yes, we do,” you manage to say, quickly turning to lean back against him; tears are the last thing he needs from you right now. “We can’t keep ignoring this, it’s–it’s going to catch up with us.”
You feel him swallow thickly behind you, his chest lifting under your back.
“We can keep doing what we’re doing. Not thinking about it. Focus on the present, and whatever happens in–in the future...”
His voice cracks, and he falls silent.
The grip he has on you borders on bruising.
Your vision swims and you take a shuddering breath, clutching your daughter to your chest.
“What the hell are we doing?”
He can only make a distraught noise in the back of his throat, giving a tiny jerk of his head. Seconds away from breaking, you can tell.
“We had another kid,” you whisper, more to yourself than to him. “And she can die.”
Loki is breathing sharply through his nose, his teeth gritted and eyes clenched shut, willing this conversation to die and fix itself.
“Loki.” You tap the back of his hand. “Did I die, too?”
The desperation in the way he buries his face in the curve of your neck answers the question for you.
No force of clenching your teeth can stop the tears anymore, and you quickly shift Frigg to one arm and press your fingers to your eyelids, rubbing away the tears before they fall, fighting back the lump in your throat.
“What are we doing?” you choke out again, not trusting your eyes to be open. “Loki, we–we have kids, what the hell were we thinking—”
“Stop it,” he hisses, still hiding in the curve of your neck. “Don’t do that.”
“I have to,” you plead, voice trembling. “If you won’t think about it, someone has to, and–and I’m going to be the one who dies—”
His grip on you tightens. “Please stop.”
You couldn’t if you tried.
“You’ll just move on, and the kids—they’ll probably stay with you, too, or maybe they’ll die with me, and we have to live the rest of our lives just waiting for them to die—”
“Shut up,” he groans into your skin.
“I can’t live like that,” you choke, clapping a hand over your mouth at the awful sob that escapes. “I don’t know what we were thinking, getting together, having kids—”
“Shut up, norns, stop.”
“No, you listen to me,” you gulp, eyes clenched shut. “I’m just a human, you’re–you’re like, four other things and I don’t even know why we thought this could work—I won’t–I won’t even get your lifetime, much less th—”
An ice-cold, blue finger lodges itself between your teeth, shocking the rest of your worries to freeze in your throat, and Loki lifts his tear stained face to level with your ear, forehead pressed to your temple.
“Bite,” he hisses in your ear. “Do it. As hard as you can.”
Teary eyes wide and frantic, you try to protest and squirm out of his grip, but his gaze is feral, breathing erratic.
“Bite.”
So you do, eyes locked with his.
His eyelids flutter shut when your teeth break skin, frozen blood dripping onto your lips.
For a horrid moment he won’t move, and Frigg has stopped sucking, probably disturbed by your pounding heart; his hand is blue over your jaw, pulling your head back against his shoulder, his bleeding finger still between your teeth.
“‘Oki,” you gulp around his finger, the tightness of your throat starting to choke you up again.
“My blood,” he whispers, staring down at your mouth. “By your doing.”
You nod frantically, your eyes pleading with him to let you go. You told me to.
Even with the bruising grip he has on you, you can’t find it in yourself to be upset at him for it; he’s grounding you, grounding himself, in the only way that makes sense to him.
“Breathe.”
He says it to himself, struggling to remember how, but you follow his silently counted focus with him, reaching up to brush your fingertips across his lips.
Minutes tick by before you’ve noticed your chest rising and falling with Loki’s, your heartbeat slowing; your day-old daughter latches back on, her tiny eyes opening to gaze up at you.
Loki hasn’t reached the point of opening his eyes.
You move for him, reaching up and carefully pulling his hand away from your mouth, placing a gentle kiss on the bite mark.
“Thank you,” he breathes, staring at the bite.
Generally when something like this happens, it’s only to one of you, and the other is there to help the other back to their feet. But this time, you don’t know if you can lift him when you’re still fallen yourself.
So when he presses his lips to your jaw and whispers “let’s have it out,” it catches you by complete surprise.
“You don’t...want to wait?”
“No. We’ve waited too long already, you were right.”
You take another deep breath; here we go. This has to be figured out. Decided.
“Turn around,” he adds quietly, nudging your back to help you turn to face him. “I need to look at you.”
You oblige him, cradling Frigg close to not disrupt her, and when you sit between his legs facing him and get a good look at him, your heart shatters.
“We’ll figure it out,” you promise, caressing his tear-stained cheek with your free hand. “That’s what we do.”
He nods; but it’s more of a resignation, a farewell before marching off to war, a goodbye wave out of a window.
Where to start.
“So,” Loki begins shakily, “you–you are going to die. Soon.”
You give him a sad smile. “Right. And you are going to keep living. For a long time after I’m gone.”
His eyes snap shut and he grunts, smashing a fist to his mouth to stop the sob that he almost lets out.
You give him a moment.
“You’ll ruin me,” he eventually concedes, voice still muffled and thick with tears. “If you die, I’ll be ruined. There’s no way I could function, I–I couldn’t be what our children need.”
“You know that’s not true...”
He holds up a hand. “Don’t. Just don’t.”
Your heart sinks, and you take his hand in yours and hold tight.
“Then let’s figure out our options.”
“You come with me,” he blurts, “you eat the fruit, extend your life to match mine, we give it to the kids, and nobody has to go. Nobody...nobody leaves.”
“But we would need Odin’s permission,” you point out, stroking your thumb over his knuckles. “And we don’t know how human bodies would react to that.”
“Then I will steal them for you.” Loki lurches forward, eyes ablaze, and grabs your face in his hands. “I will break every law I’ve ever known and rewrite the rules of nature, just to have you by my side.”
Your eyes burn and you look down at Frigg, wishing your husband didn’t sound so desperate, so certain that he knows the perfect solution.
“That’ll just cause a million problems. Humans with immortality, it’s not going to be a good mix. If I can have it, then every human is going to feel they have a right to it.”
“Then we don’t tell any other humans. Keep it above the clouds, between us.”
Your eyes close with the soft shake of your head, and Loki bares his teeth in a quiet snarl.
“Talk to me,” he pleads, eyes glistening. “Why not? Tell me, please, tell me.”
“I don’t...” you swallow thickly, gaze darting to anywhere but his.
“Tell me.”
“I don’t know if I want to live forever.”
You watch the words smack him across the face. Imprint themselves on his forehead, gouge his eyes out. In an instant his face sets like stone, a practiced facade void of any betraying emotion.
“You don’t?”
“I...I don’t know,” you whisper; he looks so hurt. “Hear me out, okay? It’s not you.”
He stays silent, chewing the inside of his cheek.
“I think...maybe it’s nice having an endpoint,” you start cautiously. “Knowing that one day I’ll have reached the end, and–and hopefully have done a good job. That’s been the only constant my entire life.”
“And you actually want that??”
“I don’t know.”
“You should know,” Loki says incredulously, staring at you as if you’d gone insane. “There’s no question, I–I can’t believe you’re even entertaining this.”
“What about the kids?” You nod towards the door; Elliot. “He has friends. We have friends, I have family—human family—and I’ll have to watch them die. If my life changes, I can’t just bring along anyone I want. It doesn’t work like that.”
He clenches his jaw, his gaze dropping to Frigg. “It can work like that for us.”
“But it’s not just us. Everyone we know and love would die and we would have to watch.”
��So you’re scared.” He taps a finger on Frigg’s tiny toes. “You’re just scared of losing people?”
“Of course I am,” you hiss. “I’m terrified, and you certainly aren’t helping put me at ease.”
That hits him a little harder, and for a moment he stays silent, absently playing with Frigg’s toes while she continues to eat.
“There’s still the other option,” you quietly remind him, reaching over to catch his hand in yours.
“Ah, the one where I kill myself for you?”
“No...no, Loki, don’t.”
“I’ve tried,” Loki says bluntly, eyes stone cold. “It didn’t work out well.”
You chew your lip, thumb rubbing over his knuckles. “You’re scared, too. You’re not fooling me.”
His shoulders sink.
It’s perfectly twisted, and he shouldn’t be so surprised that this is how his life would end up: you want to die together, he wants to live together.
And you’re both terrified.
“I’m...sorry. Sorry.” He shakes his head. “Which one, then?”
“Choose a sacrifice,” you quietly answer. “I don’t think there’s a happy ending either way.”
Loki falls silent, his gaze dropping to his hand in yours. Your thumb still moves over his knuckles, his daughter cradled to your chest.
“Would you...be happy if we went my way?”
You can’t answer; you don’t have an answer.
Your husband nods. “Alright.”
“I’m sorry,” you whisper, eyes clenched shut, “I don’t know. Humans have never had to answer a question like that, I-I have no category for something like this. I don’t know.”
“Alright.” He forces a smile, catching your thumb with his. “Then starting now, I have about seventy years until I die.”
You blink up at him through teary eyes. “What??”
“I’ll die. When you do.” He reaches up and wipes away one of the tears that makes it down your cheek, a cracked smile on his lips. “We’ll go together, when the time is right.”
“No,” you choke, “no, I can’t make you do that—”
“My love.”
The tears on his cheeks only adorn his smile all the more beautifully, and he takes your face in his hands, brushing his thumb over your lips.
“You are not making me do anything.”
“I’m guilting you,” you gulp. “Aren’t I?”
“No.” He shakes his head. “Not in the slightest. I’m choosing this. You are my choice.”
“Loki—”
Pressing his lips to yours, he shuts you up with a harsh kiss. “I would rather live a hundred years by your side,” he murmurs, “than five thousand more without you.”
“But I’m asking you to die,” you whisper, searching his eyes for the lie, “I am asking you to kill yourself for me. Just say no and leave, Loki, say no.”
He laughs softly and shakes his head again. “No. You’ve sacrificed enough for me, let me try to repay you for all you’ve done.”
You can only stare up at him, trying to regain control of yourself, clutching your daughter close; Loki just smiles, and you know his mind is made.
“I think,” he says, and kisses the tip of your nose, “perhaps I was only allowed my...immortality or whatnot, to keep me alive until I met you.”
You wipe at your eyes with the sleeve of his shirt. “What do you mean?”
“Perhaps I am a man out of time.” His gaze drops to Frigg. “I know this is where I am supposed to be, so maybe now is the time when my eternity ends and I become a part of yours.”
“You–you mean it?” You sniff, and Frigg lets out a quiet mewl to let you know she’s had her fill.
“More than I’ve ever meant anything in my life.”
“Are you sure??”
“Listen to me,” he laughs, carefully taking Frigg from your arms. “You’ve given me life a hundred times over—and two entirely new lives.” He kisses Frigg’s tiny forehead. “So the least I can do is give you mine. End of discussion.”
Frigg starts crying then, and Loki pulls himself to his feet to gently rock her and pace around the bed, quietly crooning at the tiny girl.
In another world, it’d be laughable: she barely extends the length of his hands when he cradles her in them. And he can only stare at her, this little being he lost and gained all at once.
Steeling yourself, you manage to sit up on your knees—everything still hurts from giving birth just a day before—and call Loki over.
He gently pushes you back down though, back onto the pillows, and sits beside you. Your teeth worry at your bottom lip, and you study his eyes.
“Are you lying?”
The only change you find in them is a new sadness, his soft smile faltering.
“I am not,” he promises, “and I cannot. Not to you.”
Elliot’s tired eyes peek through the doorway before you have a chance to ask him one more time.
“Why’s she crying, momma?”
“You,” Loki frowns at the little boy—half-heartedly, of course, “are supposed to be asleep.”
That guilty grin is going to get him into trouble one day.
He gives some rambling excuse, something about his heart hurting and his head hurting and it being too loud to fall asleep, but you don’t care. There’s a light in Elliot’s eyes that lifts the weight off your chest, a glimmer of contentment in the kid’s grin, and you don’t want him to go back to bed.
Once his sister is secure in his arms, Loki scoops them both up and carries them to your bed. “You have to sleep,” he warns him, tapping him on the nose. “No tricks tonight, your mother needs to rest.”
Elliot only giggles and hugs Frigg to his chest, the little prince snuggling into the pillows between you and Loki. 
You lay back down, watching Elliot make faces at the baby, and Loki climbs into bed on his other side with a quick smooch to his cheek. He reaches over Elliot’s legs and takes your hand, giving it a squeeze, and you offer him a small smile, half-hidden in your pillow. 
Should we tell him? you mouth, and Loki presses his lips into a thin line, mulling over the thought. 
Between the two of you, Frigg blows a spit bubble, which only makes Elliot laugh so hard he snorts, and Loki shakes his head with a smile he can’t fight.
Not for a long, long time.
You nod and squeeze his hand, too. 
“Goodnight, crazies.” 
“Night,” Elliot giggles, and you know no sleeping is going to be happening anytime soon. “Love ya.”
“I love you,” Loki announces, tapping his thumb on the back of your hand. “I love all three of you, so, so much.”
You fall asleep that night hand-in-hand and cuddled up to your babies, content with the firm decision that that, however long this life lasts, will be enough.

It’s my birthday tomorrow!!! Can I get some wholesome Loki birthday content? 🥺 ilysm
sorry i missed it hon, happiest of birthdays to you and all the birthdays i’ve missed!! hopefully this makes up for it!
read on to get a little drunk with Loki on cheap champagne (this is the fluffiest thing i’ve ever written oh lord it’s my new favourite)
For the past couple weeks, Loki’s been plotting.
You’d say planning, but that’s not quite what’s been going on. He’s…plotting. Setting an elaborate plot, not just making plans, thinking he’s being slick about it.
Not quite.
The fifth mistake was his random “let’s play would you rather” attempt around the dinner table.
Starting subtly with “would you rather drive or fly somewhere?”
You’d opened your mouth to answer, but Elliot cut you off.
“I’m learning how t’ fly. Mr. Wilson’s teachin’ me.”
…which only caused immediate chaos in the Loka household, resulting in a few panicked calls to Sam wondering how in fresh hell he thought putting your six year old in a flying robot-bird-suit was a good idea.
Apparently it was only once, and Bucky was on the ground watching, and Elliot wasn’t wearing the suit, I was carrying him—‘cause that’s so much better.
So on the evening of the day before your birthday, when Loki insisted on starting the celebration, you didn’t call Sam or Bucky. You called Peter.
Why is trusting a seventeen year old kid with your children easier than trusting two grown adults? THOSE grown adults??
He’s a good kid, and actually had been Loki’s first choice of a babysitter. He arrives right on time, ever the politest, and immediately gets dragged off by an excited Elliot to go play Legos.
“Feel free to leave!” He yells from Elliot’s room, “I’ve got them under control!”
“I’m unassured,” Loki announces.
You have to agree.
After showing Peter where to find dinner, Frigg’s favourite blanket, extra diapers just in case, the fire extinguisher, and the other basic items needed for Loka-home survival, you both kiss your kiddos goodbye with a stern “be good.”
Loki lays your coat over your shoulders and offers you his arm.
“We’d better be off, and I’m driving. No arguments.”
“Goodbye forever,” you sigh to your children.
Loki’s evil scheme turns out to be…not so evil.
He did drive, rather well, actually, and simply booked a reservation for two in a chic, modern restaurant overlooking the city.
“Surprise,” he smiles, offering his arm once again when you step out of the car.
You take it, albeit suspiciously. “What’s the catch?”
“Elliot made me promise not to keep you to myself on your birthday,” he explains with a laugh. “So tonight is just for us. No obligations, no diapers, and absolutely no stress.”
Right there in the middle of the parking lot, you wind your arms around his neck and pull him close, pressing your lips to his.
“Thank you.”
“Happy birthday,” he murmurs, grinning against your lips. “I adore you.”
There’s a skip in his step when you head off towards the city walk, hands intertwined and swinging mindlessly between the two of you.
A dream of golden darkness, night has fallen beautifully over the city, bringing an unexpected rain along with it as people hurry by, window shop, stroll aimlessly.
“Ah, your first gift,” Loki remarks when you step out from under the parking structure, lifting his face to the rain. “A kiss in the rain. Redeemable whenever you see fit.”
“Please tell me you didn’t put Thor up to this,” you giggle, grabbing the umbrella from his coat pocket. Opening it with a quick shake, you give Loki’s hand a tug and pull him under it. “Bribe him for rain tonight or anything.”
“Mhm.” A soft smile tugs at his rain-speckled lips. “I use my brother to seduce my wife, of course.”
“Is that what’s happening?”
“Maybe,” he purrs, arms slipping around your waist to pull you against him. “I’d say it’s working, wouldn’t you?”
You just hum contentedly and let him sweep you off into this rainy, city-lit dream, complete with a kiss in the rain that leaves you breathless, the umbrella slipping from your grip.
“We really should be going now,” he whispers when the kiss morphs into an embrace, catching the umbrella and moving it back over the two of you. “Don’t want to miss our reservation.”
“To hell with the reservation—”
“No,” Loki laughs and pushes you gently away. “I did something relatively normal and exceptionally midgardian, so we’re following through with it, no questions asked.”
You huff and complain the whole way, grabbing Loki a few times in the middle of crosswalks to steal a smooch—not that he argues against it, at all—but eventually, Loki comes to a stop in front of the restaurant and pries his hand from yours.
“Remember,” he hums as he opens the door for you, “we’re perfectly average humans.”
“Gotcha. You definitely aren’t a wizard.”
“Exactly.”
Loki’s apparently in the mood to impress you tonight, judging from the beautiful restaurant and the prices on the menu. There’s a tiny hint of smugness to his smile as he helps you out of your coat and pulls your chair out for you before sitting down himself, so once he’s seated across from you, you quirk a suspicious eyebrow.
“So. What movies have you been watching, dear?”
He quirks an eyebrow right back.
“The same as you, my love, why do you ask?”
“You’re being weird.” You prop the menu up in front of your face, just to send him pointed glares right over the top.
“I am attempting to be romantic,” he replies, mirroring your actions with his own. “Now shush and let me spoil you.”
You give an indignant scoff, but go back to browsing the menu, pretending not to notice how Loki’s locked his ankle with yours.
That may be the worst conflict he’s had to face yet - whether to sit next to you and be within touching distance, or across from you to more easily speak with and gaze at you.
He’s left one hand empty, resting on the table as he scans the menu, so you take it and lean over to press a quick kiss to his knuckles.
“Heh—no, I’m supposed t—y-you don’t—”
“Shush, Loki.” Behind your menu you smile, overly pleased at his instant fluster. “Let me spoil you.”
After composing himself slightly—though not letting go of your hand—he flags down your server and asks for the “most expensive, hardest to acquire bottle of wine in your stock.”
The server, some twenty year old named Matt, looked slightly confused, but brought it nonetheless.
Loki, ever the showoff, pours it with a flick of his fingers all the while mouthing something close to you are so beautiful across the table. You don’t last long; crumbling into a fit of laughter, you shove his hand away and bury your face in your hands.
“You’re so weird,” you laugh, shaking your head. “What is your deal tonight??”
“Look, it’s been a while since we’ve gotten to go out.” He shrugs, a grin on his lips at the sight of yours. “I’m just trying to take every advantage of tonight! Just drink your wine and let me spoil you, norns.”
“I thought you wanted to be average tonight,” you snort and lift your wine glass. “But okay, fine. To spoiling each other.”
“To spoiling you.”
“No, you.”
“Don’t start this,” he warns, clinks his glass against yours, and takes a sip with you.
The drink hits your tongues and for a split second you consider—only to spit the wine right back into your glasses.
“Oh, my god, that was disgusting,” you gag, trying not to laugh when Loki takes the napkin straight to his tongue.
“I don’ think ‘at kid was e’en old ‘nuff t’ drink,” Loki responds ever so eloquently.
When Matt come back around, Loki spits out the napkin and orders the exact opposite of this bottle: “your cheapest, please.”
It’s a simple champagne in a golden bottle, and this one Loki pours by hand.
“Take two.”
Another clink, another testing taste—
“Oh, yeah. Much better.”
By the time you’re done with the bottle, it tastes expensive.
Ever since Frigg was born, it doesn’t take so much to get Loki tipsy—no more immediate need for some special “Asgardian” liquor, because with the general sleep deprivation and slow deterioration of hyper-masculine Asgardian “tolerance” levels, he’s been slowly relaxing.
You can’t complain. Luckily, alcohol only adds to Loki’s charm, turning him into a giggly, affectionate, ridiculously touch starved poet who doesn’t give a single crap about opinions on pda.
Judging from the flush of his cheeks and how he’s stroking your calf with his ankle, he’s teetering off the tipsy edge by the bottom of the bottle.
“You,” he announces, and points his fork at you, “are my lover.”
“Mmmhm.” The pride shines clear on your face, and you don’t mind him seeing.
“That’s so…so fantastic. You are the one who loves me. And I am the one who loves you.”
“Life is so cool.”
“I don’t want you to die,” Loki grins. He takes a bite of his dinner and washes it down with another sip.
And there in that much-too-posh restaurant, soaking in a bubble bath of golden champagne, you absolutely cannot die, it’s simply incomprehensible, so you lean in with a grin of your own and theatrically whisper one of his favourite words.
“Never.”
The wink you slap on the end of your promise seems to send Loki’s thoughts spiralling into elsewhere, and you go back to your dinner with a flustered little smirk.
Loki doesn’t hesitate to order dessert, waving off your tipsy concerns about how expensive the first three courses were, and when the pièce de résistance arrives in all it’s nine layer, dark chocolate, gold flakes and vanilla gelato glory, your protests drown in the second champagne bottle.
“Ah, ah, ah,” Loki tuts when you reach for it, and he holds up his own fork, visibly fighting back a laugh. “You are my birthday girl. This–this has to be something romantic.”
“But I wanna eat it all. Romantically.”
He plucks up a beautiful, decadent bite and lifts it to your lips, his chin resting on his hand as he watches you lean over to take the bite off his fork.
Even with your lamely “seductive” attempts to lick your lips, Loki promptly bursts out laughing.
“What??” You cry, grabbing a napkin and furiously searching your mouth for any messes. “Don’t laugh at me!”
“I’m not laughing at you, darling,” he snorts and lifts his fork to show you. “I can’t–I can’t feed you anymore, I can’t—”
He can’t breathe, he’s laughing so hard, forehead on the table and shoulders shaking as you watch on in confusion.
“I’m kinda offended, baby.” You reach over and take your own slightly angry bite of dessert. Maybe it wasn’t the prettiest bite you’ve ever taken, but hell, it’s your birthday and you’re drunk.
“All I see is our kids,” Loki wheezes, nearly crying with laughter. “We’ve fed them both, so–so now I just—heheh—all I can see is feeding you—”
Then he breaks off into incoherent snorts, and you manage to piece it together.
The image of little Frigg, onesie-clad and head lolling back onto her high chair with her mouth consistently open and ready for food to fall into it, flashes through your mind.
She makes these little open-mouthed grunts if she doesn’t get food upon request, head still thrown back and mouth still wide open, like a tiny baby raven freshly hatched and begging it’s mother for a meal. With that striking image of your daughter in mind, you consider what you must have looked like just then, across the table, and burst out laughing, too.
The two of you give it a couple more tries, switching off with who’s feeding who, but when you decide to bounce the forkful of chocolate heaven towards Loki’s mouth with a giggly “here comes the train—choo choo!” Loki wheezes so hard he falls out of his chair, and you collapse onto your silverware, weeping with laughter.
Matt calls you a cab.
The driver is a wiry little man with a tough face and a shiny bald spot, and brilliant blue eyes. Todd, Loki deduces as he climbs in after you. He refrains from commenting on the bald spot, but norns, it shines like a diamond.
“Todd?” Loki asks after a moment of sitting primly in your seats, heads held high and hands folded in your laps.
The epitome of “too much to drink,” but to the two of you, right now, you could pass as perfect royalty.
“Yup.”
“If I were to double the price of this trip, would you mind if I kissed my wife?”
Todd ponders the request for half a second.
“It’s her birthday,” Loki helpfully adds.
And shoots you a ridiculous wink that seems ridiculously attractive, at the moment.
“Meh, what the hell.” Todd shrugs. “But clothes stay on.”
Loki salutes and is on you in an instant, and the rest of the trip is a complete blur of giggles and shushing and sloppy kisses with no seatbelts until Loki rips himself from your grip to gasp “here!” to Todd.
You blindly follow him out of the car, still ridden with giggles and not at all minding the view you get when Loki climbs out of the cab, only to find yourself standing on the sidewalk of an empty street, glowing under a streetlight in the leftover drizzles from earlier’s rain.
He pays Todd with a wad of cash that’s most definitely more than double the charge, but Loki thanks him profusely for the ride and the backseat and insists he keep it.
When the cab drives off, Loki jumps in a puddle, sighs, and walks over to wrap an arm around your shoulders, pressing his lips to your temple.
“We need to walk it off,” he says, and you agree. You’re only a few streets away from home, so you don’t bother with the umbrella.
The fresh air does wonders as you and Loki amble towards home, arm in arm and leaning on each other, the occasional leftover giggle escaping.
“Happy birthday, my love.”
You miss a step and glance over to him to find him already staring, a soft smile on his lips.
“Thank you,” you murmur as you wind your arms about his neck. “Thank you for everything, Loki.”
“Thank you.”
“Thank you.” You emphasise it with a kiss.
He returns it, not the most precise but still laced with effort, and it’s so gentle and warmly caressing that you know in the end, he still got the last word.
“Love you,” he mumbles, and you mumble it back, leaning into him with a tight hold of his arm to land another kiss on his neck as you turn onto your street.
Loki laughs and kisses you right back, ducking under your ear and pressing his lips to your pulse point before you can squirm away. Your hands find his shoulders and you shove him with a giggle, only encouraging him to pounce again and hold you tighter.
“Okay,” you gasp through giggles, “okay, stop it, stop, we’re home!”
He resurfaces with a grin and straightens your shirt for you. “To be continued.”
With a roll of your eyes you grab his hand and drag him to the door. “Remember. Sober and mature. We’re adults with kids.”
A solemn nod.
Then he bangs the door open and sings “we’re hoooome!” before you can say or do anything.
Peter looks blankly up at you from the kitchen table.
“Oh.” The two of you push through the doorway, fighting back more laughter. “Sorry, Peter. We’re home.”
“Hey, welcome back.” He stands with a grin and Loki sticks out his hand for a shake—which Peter gives, a little confused. “Everything was great here, just perfect, they’re great kids.”
“I know,” Loki sighs, still shaking Peter’s hand, “I made them.”
“We,” you correct.
“Right, right, couldn’t have done it without her.”
“Okay…cool.” Peter pries his hand from Loki’s grip with an awkward chuckle. “Anyways. I gotta go, um, just…just one little hiccup we had…”
“Did Elliot set something on fire again?” You groan, fishing around in your purse for your wallet to pay the kid. “Damn it, I told Loki he was still too young—”
“No, nothing caught on fire!”
Loki bumps you with his hip and holds up another wad of cash—I’ve got it.
“He was really hyper,” Peter explains, pretending not to notice Loki leafing through what’s got to be the biggest wad of cash he’s ever seen. “We went outside and ran around and everything, but nothing could get him to stay still, so uh…Mr. Loki, is it legal to take money you conjured?”
“Perfectly,” Loki assures him, pressing the money into the kid’s hand. “I worked for most of it.”
“O-okay…”
“It’s all real,” you promise him with a laugh. “Really. It’s not illegal. How’d you get Elliot in bed then?”
“Right, I might have kind of sort of had to…” he scratches his neck, laughs. “Um, well, I maybe had to usemywebtostickhimtothewall.”
Loki just nods understandingly and pats Peter on the shoulder. “Wonderful. As long as he’s asleep.”
You can’t bring yourself to mind too much, either. It’s certainly not the strangest thing that’s happened in this household.
After assuring Peter that you’re not at all upset that he webbed your son to a wall, Loki sees him to the door and waves goodbye after another very formal handshake, then he turns back around and lets out a giant breath of relief.
“I think I covered that perfectly. He had no idea.”
“Definitely.” You give him two thumbs up. “Wanna go see if Elliot’s really on the wall?”
A grin splits over Loki’s face, and he dashes down the hall to Elliot’s room with you hot on his heels.
“Unreal,” he whispers when he peeks his head inside, “he’s dead asleep. He looks comfortable.”
You stick your head through the doorway and have to pull back immediately, letting out a loud snort of laughter at the sight of your little son, spread eagle against the far wall and snoring lightly with his Iron Man plushie clutched in one hand, webbed and weirdly comfortable.
“There’s no way he’s—”
Loki claps both hands over your mouth with a very loud “shhhhhhhh!” before slumping against the wall with his own silent fit of giggles.
“Shuddup.” You lick his palm and he laughs harder.
Seconds later you’ve tackled him to the ground to smush your hands to his mouth, the two of you giggling and screeching and shushing and slowly forgetting your two kids are sleeping behind these doors.
He finally catches your wrists and holds them tight, keeping you above him as you catch your breath, still grinning and breathlessly laughing.
“Do you want your present now, my love?”
“Loki,” you gasp, pretending to be scandalised, “in the hallway? You dirty boy—”
“It’s an actual gift,” he groans, head falling to the floor with a thud. “Sometimes you’re worse than I am.”
“Yup.” You settle onto his hips and smile down at him. “I’ll take the present now.”
“You don’t want to move somewhere more comfortable?”
You wiggle a bit; he grunts and lifts an eyebrow.
“Nope, this is pretty comfy.”
“Careful.”
Resigning himself to your hallway-lap-straddle, he sighs and pulls a package wrapped in brown paper out of thin air. “For my birthday girl. Our birthday girl.”
You eagerly rip through the paper, and a thick leather-bound book falls onto Loki’s stomach.
“Ooh…”
Running your hands over the smooth cover, the stamped gold embellishments, you catch Loki’s eye.
“I’m writing you a book,” he explains.
“What’s it about?”
“You.”
He pushes himself up to lean back on his hands, guiding you to open the book and flip through it. Sure enough, it’s handwritten, about half of the book already filled with Loki’s beautiful script, a couple sketches, some pressed flowers, loose papers…
“It’ll never run out of pages.” He points to the spine, the thickness. “I used the entire book just trying to capture the kind of person you are and the beginnings of how we met, so I charmed it to always carry enough blank pages for our story.”
“Sheesh, that’s a lot of writing.”
“And there still aren’t enough words in the universe to describe you.”
You scoff, but Loki shushes you with a finger to your lips.
“It’s a constant work in progress, and one with an conclusion I never want to reach. But, I can assure you that it will have a happy ending, when it arrives.”
“Loki. Thank you.”
He looks up at you with those big puppy dog eyes and smiles, dimpled and ageless, and you lean forward and kiss him.
Midnight passes and it’s your birthday, officially, as you and Loki eat some bread and drink some water, sitting on the kitchen counters quietly laughing and teasing and reminiscing—among other things—until you’re exhausted and heading back towards sober.
The two of you carefully cut Elliot off of the wall and carry him to bed, slowly realising that Peter actually webbed your child to a wall and that maybe you should bring that up again with him tomorrow. Elliot clings to you for a minute when you try to lower him into bed, whispers “bappy hirthday, momma,” tries to kiss you on the cheek, and falls back to sleep.
Frigg, when you check on her a room over, is a little sack of cotton footsie pjs and dark hair, mouth wide open blowing spit bubbles as she sprawls across the mattress of her crib.
“I love her,” Loki croons, kissing the tips of his fingers and brushing them over Frigg’s round little cheek. “She sleeps like you.”
Your elbow finds it’s way nicely under his ribs and he hisses.
In bed, you’re snug under Loki’s arm smushing your cheek to his chest, ankles entwining. He’s tired, but still awake, so you reach over and grab your new book, setting it on his chest.
“Read to me?”
His drowsy chuckle rumbles under your ear and he takes the book, thumbing past the in-depth love letter/birthday dedication you already cried over twice.
“On this day, some years ago,” he begins, yawns, and scoots you closer into his arms, “you were born. You came into this world and I like to believe you cried a beautiful song, unlike our own screeching children (spoiler alert, I am so sorry). At this time, I was, of course, well into my adulthood, just waiting for the day you would try to kill me. Not to make this weird.”
“Brilliant.” You lean up and plant a sweet kiss on his jaw.
“Darling, you’re making me blush.”
“Shh, I know. Keep reading.”
“Luckily, this is not my story, and my wife has a thing for older men.”
You poke him in the gut.
He laughs and steals a proper kiss.
The two of you huddle even closer, trying to press yourselves into one, and Loki reads you the beginnings of your happy ending until neither of you can keep your eyes open.
You fall asleep in a tangled mess of searching limbs, Loki’s book lying open over his heart to save your spot.

“I already have no pants on-“ “NO!” 😂😂😂
you asked for it @lokislilcaribbeanprincess @iamverity @skydiving-without-a-parachute
domestic dad loki topped with a dollop of fluffy breeding kink yeah that’s a thing
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Two kids.
You’ve changed all the diapers, fed them both, cleaned up after them, done your time.
Frigg is barely four and Loki already wants another.
“But a baby,” he pleads, striding along next to you, “both our children are growing older. I can’t carry Elliot anymore, Frigg…it’s just not the same, I want a baby.”
“You know that baby will just grow up again, right?”
“Yes.” Loki grins as you come to a halt in the laundry room, setting the hamper down with a huff.
“And what happens once that baby’s four?” You start sorting through the dirty clothes, pulling the remains of a chocolate bar out of a jeans pocket. “Oh, god, Elliot…chocolate melts…”
“Then we have another, of course.” Loki grabs another pair of jeans and starts checking the pockets as well. “Then that one grows up, and we have another, then that one grows, and we have another—”
“My uterus hurts just thinking about that.”
“But more babies, darling,” he sighs, tossing the pair of little jeans in the washer. “More little you and I’s, crawling around and—”
“And terrorising us,” you cut in, “wrecking this entire house and keeping us awake, keeping us from each other for months on end, then they grow up and we have to feed them and send them to school and raise them and we’ll never have a full night’s rest for the rest of our lives.”
You wait for Loki to sigh, realise how absurd his proposal is, but he just gives you a dreamy smile and throws another dirty sock in the washer.
“The more you speak,” he murmurs, leaning towards you, “the more I just want to impregnate you.”
Aha.
“Okay…so this is just your breeding kink talking?”
“I’ve told you, I don’t have a breeding kink,” he hums, kissing the tip of your nose and plucking the shirt out of your hands. “I just want to have an endless number of children with you, fill your belly with my seed time and time again, and raise children of our creation for years on end.”
“Right.” You jab an elbow into his side, dumping the rest of the clothes in the washer and hoisting the hamper back onto your hip. “Totally not a breeding kink.”
The next morning, Loki wakes you the way he does best.
You’re not complaining, you never could, but when he tries to convince you that “breakfast” is a perfectly viable excuse to be late to work, you shove him off the bed and all but hurl a pair of pants at him.
“Don’t get me pregnant,” you warn him as he laughs, pointing a finger in his face. “Don’t you dare, you have to keep saying that spell thing, okay? We are not in agreement about this ‘more babies’ issue, Loki, do not get me—”
“Shh…” he surges toward you, molding his lips to yours and chasing you back onto the pillows. “Don’t worry, you know I would never do that to you.”
Of course you know that.
“Just making sure,” you giggle, and you try to no avail to squirm out from under him.
“Doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun…” lips latching onto your neck, he growls playfully and rolls you on top of him, keeping you tight against him as you laugh and push him away.
With a tongue that, ah, skilled, you might’ve given in by the time he was done, but your bedroom door crashes open and your two lovely kids barge in, leaving you and Loki scrambling for the sheets.
“I didn’t do nothin’,” Frigg is yelling over and over, holding onto Elliot arm as he drags her behind him. “I didn’t do nothin’!!”
“Frigg froze the milk,” Elliot seethes, a little blue in the face. “I’m gonna be late for school if she doesn’t quit it—”
You kick Loki under the blanket. Your turn.
“Uhh…”
“Great parenting,” you groan, sitting up and keeping the sheet tight under your chin. “Frigg, unfreeze the milk, don’t do that to Elliot. Elliot, don’t drag your sister like that—”
“She won’t let go of me!” He shakes his arm to prove his point, and sure enough, Frigg refuses to let go and just giggles. “See? This is all her, I didn’t do this.”
“Elliot, she’s four,” Loki sighs, rubbing his eyes. “Just give her another cookie and tell her to read a book.”
“She can’t read yet, that doesn’t—”
“Shhhhh.” Loki yawns and flops back on his pillow, a cool hand stroking down your bare back. “It’ll work, trust me.”
A look of disbelief crosses his face, but Frigg yells “BOOK” and he trudges out of your room, slamming your door and dragging his little leech of a sister along behind him.
You roll on top of Loki before he can get another word out, pinning his arms by his head. “This is why we can’t have another kid. If you’d rather have another baby than spend our mornings like this, then fine, but really think about it.”
He closes his eyes, a stupid little smile on his stupid beautiful face, and runs his hands up and down your thighs. “I do like this,” he decides, “but…I still think we can manage both.”
With that, he flips you over and you let out a surprised yelp as he peppers your face with kisses.
“Your go-to method—mmph—” you try to push him away, but he just dives back for your lips with even more ferocity. “—can’t be t—Loki! God, calm down!”
“Sorry,” he laughs, chest heaving as he hovers over you. “What were you saying, my love?”
You wipe your mouth with the back of your hand, half-heartedly glaring up at him. “Your go-to method of parenting can’t be to just give them a cookie and shut them up.”
“And…why not?” He flicks his tongue over your pouting lips, much to your unamusement. “It seems to give us enough time to do this.”
“This,” you reach around him and smack his ass before shoving him off of you, “is not happening. We both have work.”
“But br—”
“DON’T SAY BREAKFAST.”
He follows you to the bathroom, trailing behind you like the little attention-starved puppy he is.
“I’m not saying that our lives would significantly improve if you were pregnant again,” he says, leaning against the counter and watching you start brushing your teeth, “but, consider if you were.”
“I’d ‘e puking err’where.”
“Not necessarily.”
“I’d ‘e ‘UGE.”
“No, you’d be pleasantly plump,” Loki chuckles, pinching your side and getting a fist to the groin in return. “Oof…hold on, you didn’t let me finish!”
Looking threatening with a mouthful of toothpaste is difficult, but you think you did alright.
“I’ve made it quite clear just how…appealing pregnancy looks on you, my love.”
“You kinky little shit.” You spit out your toothpaste and glare at him. “I’m not getting pregnant just ‘cause you’ve got a kink.”
“It’s not that!” He trails after you, following as you stalk to the closet and rifle around for some clothes. “I happen to enjoy raising children with you.”
“Oh, do you? I’m so glad! Put a shirt on.”
“Look,” Loki sighs, catching the shirt you threw at him and slipping it on. “Our children are my entire life. You know this. They’ve consumed me and I love it.”
“I know you love them.” You wrestle on your pants, hopping around until they’re pulled up to your waist properly. “And I love you, Loki, and I’d love to just pop out babies for us, but let’s be reasonable. We can’t…we can’t do that.”
“Did you know that I think of our children as living proof of your love?” Loki’s gaze drops to his fidgeting hands.
You pause, glancing at your husband. He’s gone silent, waiting for your response and probably wishing he hadn’t “admitted” to having emotions.
“You’re an idiot,” you sigh, shaking your head and walking over to him, laying your palms on each side of his face. “You really still need proof, Loki?”
His half-smile is sheepish, almost guilty. “I…well, sometimes I get scared.”
You thought there might be more to this.
“Talk to me, Loki.”
“I don’t—” he groans and rubs his eyes. “It’s complicated?”
“Hey.” Tugging him towards you, you softly press your lips to his, thumbs brushing his cheekbones. “We’re masters of complicated, remember?”
“Mmm.”
“Please talk to me.”
“Impossible when you kiss me like that,” he mumbles, eyes closed and forehead resting on yours.
“You’re trying to distract me and it’s never worked, snowflake.”
“Fine.” He breaks away and takes your hands in his, eyes downcast. “I’m a very…ah, insecure person.”
“Right.”
“And the fact that you were willing to have two children with me,” he presses your entwined hands to his chest, “not just one, but two…I just can’t fathom that it’s my true reality.”
You wrap your arms around his waist and pull him into a tight hug. “Keep going?”
“I don’t understand how you could claim to love me as much as you do,” he continues quietly, resting his head on yours as his arms wind around you. “I gave you two children that turn blue. Two monsters, really.”
“No,” you cut in, lightly slapping his back. “You were raised to hate yourself, Loki, to hate the species that was a true part of you. Don’t bring that into our family.”
“Sorry,” he whispers. “That’s not what I’m saying. I don’t think of them that way, but from a midgardian perspective, it’s…the truth.” He shakes his head at your confused face, drawing you closer into him. “Look, the point I’m trying to make is just that you shouldn’t love us, but you do, and the fact that you wanted to have a child with me felt, um, good.”
“Validating?”
“Very.” He presses his lips to your temple, closing his eyes tightly. “And the fact that you love our little blue babies just as much as I do feels even better.”
“So you want more kids? To capitalise on that validation of my love for you?”
“Yes…” he hugs you closer, burying his face in your neck to muffle his voice. “And I might have a little bit of a kink.”
You can’t help but laugh, running a hand through his hair as you hold him. “Okay, the kink I understand. But have I given you a reason to doubt my love for you?”
“No, no, that’s not what I mean!”
“Please tell me if I have,” you murmur. “I’m so sorry.”
“You haven’t,” he promises, cradling your face in his hands. “I’m just an insecure, paranoid, kinky little shit.”
You try for a cracked smile. “Are you sure?”
“I’m positive.” He kisses you, fingers smoothing over your jaw. “There’s no part of this that puts you at fault, my love. I house the problems for this family.”
“I love you,” you swear, kissing him again. “I really, really do. That’s why I’ve got two incredible, perfect blue kids with you, okay? Because I love you, Loki.”
He opens his mouth to respond, only to be cut off by a loud crash from the kitchen.
“Damn. This was a nice little moment, wasn’t it?”
“Quick,” you whisper, grabbing a fistful of his shirt and yanking him towards you. “Kiss me with your tongue, hurry, before they find us.”
“O-okay.”
He obliges much too happily, curving your body into his with hands splayed over your back and neck as yours tangle in his hair.
Knock knock knock.
“MOMMY, ELLI ATE ALL THE CEREAL—”
Loki moves to break the kiss so you can answer, but you shake your head and suck his tongue back into your mouth.
“Mommy?”
Just a moment longer…
“Mommy, are you ‘n daddy kissin’ again?”
Loki pulls away, a grin back on his swollen lips. “Yes, ma’am.”
“Oh, okay.”
You bite down on Loki’s shoulder to keep from laughing, holding onto him tight.
“…but the cereal’s gone.”
“There’s a new box on the middle shelf,” you call through the door, trying not to laugh when Loki starts nipping at the curve of your neck again. “Have Elliot get it down for you, okay, sweetie?”
“‘Kay, thanks, mommy.”
“My pleasure, Frigg.” Your hands slip back into Loki’s hair, tugging gently and preparing to get back to making out as soon as she leaves…
“Have fun kissin’ daddy.”
“Oh, I will,” you laugh, gazing into Loki’s eyes and brushing his hair out of his face as he quirks an eyebrow.
“…can I haffa kiss? M’kinda lonely ‘n Elli’s gonna leave…”
“Frigg,” Loki calls out to her, spinning you around to press your back against the wall and clapping a hand over your mouth. “Give us two more minutes and we’ll give you a million kisses.”
“Even at work?”
“Of course,” you laugh, pushing his hand away. “We’ll be right out, go have your cereal!”
Loki pauses for half a second to listen for the little footsteps leaving the room before pouncing on you again, dragging a trail of hot kisses down the column of your throat as your head falls back with a sigh.
“We’ve gotta stop,” you groan, raking your fingers through his hair. “Elliot has to get to school, Frigg needs a kiss—”
“MOM??”
“I still want another kid.” Loki’s lips leave your chest with a pop and he grins. “I’ll take the interruptions, only makes it that much better when we actually find time to ravish each other.”
“MOM, THERE’S NO MORE CEREAL—”
“If they say the word cereal one more time, I’m going to scream.”
“You know, this wouldn’t have happened if we had another kid.” Loki sets your pouting, deprived self back upright with a sigh, reaching down and buttoning your pants for you.
The pout continues—you haven’t gotten to kiss him like that in a while.
“I think it would only get worse if we had more…”
“Anyways,” Loki cuts you off, a finger to your lips, “the bed is right over there, I conveniently already have no pants on—”
“No.”
“I was thinking we should go for twins, actually,” he continues, that shit-eating grin plastered on his perfect face. “Make it an even four children, then if we don’t get twins this time, we keep at it until we get a pair—”
“Absolutely not.”
He heaves a dramatic sigh and wrestles your shirt over your head, holding it for you to slip your arms in. “I’ll respect your wishes, I suppose…”
“Look at me, Loki,” you laugh, lifting your arms when he starts tucking your shirt into the band of your pants.
He glances up when he finishes, grabbing a fistful of your shirt and pulling you in for a quick smooch. “Yes?”
“First of all, you just reversed-stripped me, which is very out of character for your horny self, but very sweet. Second…” you hold out a pair of pants to him with the sweetest grin you can manage. “Pants.”
“No.”
You throw the pants in his face. “Okay, this!! Is why we can’t have more kids!”
“Why, because I prefer to be ready for baby-making at any given time??”
“No!” You jab a finger into his chest, snagging a quick kiss that’s the perfect mix of annoyed and enamoured. “Because YOU are my third child, and you are exhausting and more work than Elliot and Frigg combined and you’re making me late to work again—”
He opens his mouth to defend himself and you shut it by sealing it with your own.
“Don’t. say. breakfast.”
“But—”
“No.”
“Hmph.” He crosses his arms with a huff, just sitting there and letting you squish your lips up against his.
A sorry excuse for a kiss, but neither of you are complaining.
Another yell for mom brings you crashing back into reality and you push yourself away, sighing happily and patting Loki’s pouting cheek. “Pants,” you remind him, pointing. “See you on the battlefield. In pants. Please.”
“Hypothetical question, darling,” Loki calls after you, holding up a finger when you reach the closet door. “If I don’t put on pants, will I get a spanking?”
“LOKI, I SWEAR TO GOD—”

I'm painting my house! BEGONE UGLY YELLOW!!! What about some family fluff painting day?
ok this is definitely not what you were talking about BUT it’s still painting s o o o 
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
“Uh oh!”
“Shh. They’ll wake up if you’re not quiet.”
Something brushes lightly across your bare back, tickling softly between your shoulder blades.
You’d love to guess Loki’s hand, but he’s fast asleep beside you, hand resting just under your chin—he must’ve had a hand on your cheek when you fell asleep.
“Uh oh.”
“Stop sayin’ that, Blueberry, it’s fine. They’re gonna love it!”
“…uh oh.”
The third little “uh oh” rouses you from your rest, the blurry bedroom slowly coming into focus as you blink.
As expected, your kids are visiting this lovely early morning—Elliot sprawled across Loki’s legs, little Frigg sitting calmly between the two of you.
“Wha’s goin’on?” You mumble, keenly aware of the fact that you’re a bit…bare, and probably shouldn’t roll over until you’re able to get the blankets back.
Elliot just gives you a sheepish grin, whipping his hands behind his back to hide. “Nothin’.”
“I don’t believe you,” you yawn, rubbing your eyes. “Frigg, honey, what’re you doing back there?”
“Uh oh,” she whispers.
That’s comforting.
“Is that—is that a paintbrush??”
Elliot’s face falls. “It’s washable! It’ll come right off!”
“Elliot!” You’d sit up, or at least roll over, but Frigg takes the wet paintbrush to your back again and you realise that might not be the best option, considering you apparently have a work of art smeared across your back. “What on earth made you think this was a good idea??”
He gives you another sheepish grin, twirling his paintbrush between his fingers. “Um…I just, um…Frigg told me to do it.”
“Uh oh.”
“Frigg told you,” you repeat, trying to give him your best glare over your shoulder. “Frigg, the baby. She told you to come paint your parents?”
His bright eyes flit away from yours.
“…yup.”
“You know she only knows about four words, right?”
“Yup. She’s a real smart baby.”
You bury your face back in your pillow with a quiet groan. “Elliot, don’t lie to me.”
It only takes about two seconds before he cracks.
The tears come first, lip wobbling as his eyes brim with tears, and he flops off of Loki’s thighs to bury his face in the blankets, muffled sobs echoing through the room.
“I’m sorry,” he cries, “I just—I just wanna draw, and-and I wanted t’ do somethin’ with Frigg, and you’re just layin’ here—”
“Elliot,” you whisper, reaching back to rub a hand over his back. “Elliot. It’s okay, sweetheart. Look at me.”
He lifts his head, eyes red and sniffling. “I’m sorry, mommy.”
“I forgive you,” you quietly assure him with a gentle smile. “You just can’t lie to me like that. And you definitely can’t blame your sister for things that you do, you understand?”
“I understand.” He nods furiously, wiping his nose with the back of his hand. “Really, I do, I understand.”
“We’re all good, then.” Grabbing your pillow, you clutch it close and prop yourself up on your elbows to smile at him. “Now show me this piece of art you’re making. Dad’s back makes for a good canvas, doesn’t it?”
“Dah,” Frigg agrees.
Paintbrush abandoned, she’s apparently decided to switch to finger-painting your back, tiny fingers smearing across your shoulder blades.
Elliot nods, picking his paintbrush back up. “Well, I-I took all the bumps and made ‘em into stars. Kinda looks like space, doesn’t it?”
You scoot your way closer, studying the paint drying on Loki’s bare back—he might just be pretending to sleep, at this point, you wouldn’t put it past him.
All the bumps, Elliot said.
The bumps, apparently meaning the scars.
Each scar, each freckle on Loki’s back has been painted a dark blue, contrasting against his pale skin rather beautifully, actually. With his paleness and the painted scars and the darkened freckles, an expanse of constellations stretches across your husband’s back—you can’t believe you never noticed.
“That’s beautiful,” you tell your son in a hushed voice. “Geez, Elliot, you’ve got a good eye for hidden art.”
“Thank you!” A bright smile spreads over his face. “If he turned blue, then it’d really look like space, but I’m just gonna imagine it.”
That really would, completing the masterpiece perfectly; you’ve half a mind to run and get an ice cube, make him turn blue in his sleep just to finish off the painting, but at that moment, Loki squirms.
“Mmmf.”
“Dah!” Frigg gives your back one last swipe with green-painted hands, then clambers over the mattress to Loki. “Dah, dah!”
His eyes flutter open and her little hands go straight to his cheek.
“Dah,” she coos, a gummy grin on her tiny lips.
“Morning, Frigg,” he laughs. “I hope that’s only paint on your hands.”
The little handprint she leaves on his cheek brings a laugh to your lips, and Loki reaches up to grab her chubby hand and plant a kiss on her knuckles.
“What brought about this cozy art session?” He yawns, huffing a disobedient lock of hair out of his face. “To be conducted in the nude, nonetheless?”
“Watch it,” you laugh and smack him lightly on the arm. “Elliot and Frigg wanted to paint, and somehow we ended up as the canvases.” You point at your back, laying back down on your stomach with a grin. “What do you think? Frigg painted this.”
“Me!” She bounces a little as she laughs, waving her green hands in the air.
Pushing himself up on his arms, he lightly pinches her cheek. “You, sweetheart? It’s absolutely beautiful, a masterpiece if I’ve ever seen one.”
He leans over to press a firm kiss to your cheek as you lay there, head turned to him and a conundrum of colours smeared around your back, unable to stop the smile that spreads over your face.
You turn your head just a bit, catching his lips in a deeper kiss before he can move away.
“I think you had the perfect canvas, Frigg.” Loki sighs happily when you break away. “Just look at your mother. A work of art even before the paint.”
“That’s enough, silvertongue.” You shake your head at him with a laugh. “Elliot, you should tell dad what you painted.”
“I painted the sky,” Elliot answers excitedly. “It’s space, and I drew some stars and I made all your bumps into stars, and they made a constellation!”
“All my bumps?”
“One sec. Can you turn blue real quick, Loki?” You reach over for your phone, focusing the camera on his scarred back as it shifts to that beautiful blue. “Look at what he saw.”
Scooting closer to him, you bump your arm into his and show him the photo.
“It’s even better when you’re blue like this,” Elliot pipes up, taking the brush back to Loki’s skin, touching up on the little body painting.
Loki just blinks a couple times, still staring at the photo.
A bit of hair falls in front of his face and you quickly push it behind his blue ear, a bit of anxiousness starting to prick at your heart—how’s he going to take this?
“I think it’s beautiful,” you offer, and dart forward to press a kiss to his cheek. “We’ve got two little artists on our hands.”
“Wha’d’ya think, daddy?”
“You’re going to make me cry.”
He buries his face in his pillow, and you and Elliot can’t help but laugh.
“I’m not joking,” he laughs, voice muffled, “you can’t go around saying things like that, you can’t be that soft with me.”
“Yeah, I can!” Elliot argues with a grin. “I love you, so hah!”
Frigg lets out a string of garbled giggles in agreement, bright eyes jumping from each of your smiles to the next.
Head still shoved in the pillow, Loki lets out an anguished groan. “You three. You end me. You ruin me.”
“Guilty as charged,” you hum with a smile. Taking his hand in yours, you lay back down beside him and plant a kiss on the tip of his blue nose. “Are you two done back there or is this how the entire morning is going to be spent?”
“Don’t move,” Elliot orders, climbing back onto Loki’s thighs. “I’m gonna draw the moon. Pass me the white paint, Blueberry?”
Loki grins at the little gurgle from the other end of the bed.
“Fine, I’ll get it,” your son huffs, and a hand lands heavily on the back of your leg as he reaches over the two of you for the open tub of paint. “I can’t—reach—oop.”
Something warm spreads over your thigh. 
In the sudden silence of the cozy little room, Frigg speaks volumes.
“Uh oh.”

So. This happened to me like, two days ago. I have a friend who has 3 little demons (but I love them). And the situation she was in made me wonder how would Loki react to coming home slightly later than he had intended, only to find his wife trying to do twenty things at a time, in the verge of tears, with a crying Frigg with soap in her eyes, and Elliot trying to console them both, and terribly failing. A dash of angst in there if you may. Love you!! 💕💕💕
ok let’s get some cONTENT up in this blog
here’s that screaming frigg fic y’all were so worried about heheh
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Loki’s out tonight, and the kitchen is flooding.
It figures that it’d happen tonight of all nights, a night when you have a six o’clock appointment the next morning and are trying to get everyone to sleep a little earlier, a night when everything already seems to be going wrong.
There’s a leak in Elliot’s room that just started up again, and in rummaging around under the sink for a pot to catch the water, he’d bumped a pipe with his elbow and the sink had promptly exploded.
Hands full of dirty clothes, you were on the phone with the landlord about the first leak when he sheepishly knocked on the laundry room door, dripping water with every step.
You thought that might’ve been the worst of it, trying to wrap the broken pipe in towels and stop the stream of water, but then a blood-curdling scream comes from the bathroom where you thought Frigg was brushing her teeth.
“Everything’s fine,” you’d assured the landlord, dropping the towels and rushing to the bathroom. “Just my little one, something—oh, god.”
“MY EYES, MOMMY MY EYES—”
Her eyes watery and bloodshot, she’s screaming and furiously rubbing her eyes with two little hands.
Two little bubbly hands.
“One second,” you say into the phone, handing it to Elliot and grabbing Frigg. “What happened?!”
“Soap,” she sobs, pointing at the handsoap, “soap, it ‘mells good, b-but it burns…”
“You rubbed soap in your eyes?”
She nods, a fresh wave of tears enveloping her in shaking screams, and through them you hear Elliot on the phone:
“It’s just my baby sister. Nah, she’s washing her eyes. You married? You got any kids? ”
You grab the phone from him and stick it under your ear, holding it between the side of your face and your shoulder as you swing Frigg under one arm and rush back out to the kitchen.
“Sorry, so the leak—yeah, sure, we can call someone about it.” Still trying to maintain a civil conversation, you grab the pot and run it to Elliot’s room, sticking it under the leak and hurrying back to the kitchen to get to work on the sink. “This falls under the covered maintenance charges, though, right?”
The front door opens just as the landlord gives you a slow “not exactly…” and Loki walks in.
You’re almost relieved to see him until you take in the sight of him, tuning out the landlord’s explanation of how much you’re going to have to pay and Frigg’s consistent screams of pain just to focus on the mess of a husband that just walked through the door.
His shirt hanging open and unbuttoned save the bottom three, hair a sloppy bun behind his head, wide, shocked eyes sweep the room until his mouth opens and—
“They’re supposed to be in bed!”
You choke back a sob and Loki knows he just fucked up.
“Let me call you back,” you croak into the phone, letting it slide off your shoulder onto the floor.
It cracks on the tile, but you couldn’t care less at this point.
“Are they supposed to be in bed, Loki?” You step towards him, wiping your nose on your sleeve as you drag a wailing Frigg along next to you. “Really, are our kids supposed to be asleep right now? I had no idea.”
“I-I didn’t mean—”
“You think I don’t know that?? You think I haven’t been trying for the past two hours—”
“Let me help,” he offers, rushing forward and grabbing Frigg. “What’s she going on about?”
“Soap in her eyes, go help her wash it out.” You gladly hand her over but she just screams louder, thrashing around in Loki’s arms as you run to the kitchen.
“It’s gettin’ worse, mom.” Elliot points at the overflowing sink, a nice puddle of water sloshing around at his feet. “I tried to stop it but it’s comin’ too fast for the towels—”
“LOKI!! Get in here!”
He hurries in, setting Frigg on the counter—still screaming bloody murder—and promptly slips in the puddle of water and falls flat on his back.
You shriek. He laughs.
“Aren’t I graceful,” he giggles, pulling himself back to his feet and flicking water in your face.
Wait.
Giggles??
“Fix the sink,” you groan, head dropping to your chest. “Please.”
“Gladly, m’lady.” He narrows his eyes and holds up his hands, and whoosh—all the water in the sink gathers into a giant wave and washes over the three of you.
At least now your tears will blend in.
“I said fix it,” you grit out, trying not to raise your voice at his stupid grin. “You’re not being funny, Loki, just fix it.”
Elliot looks about ready to cry, too, now in pajamas soaked to the bone with water dripping from his brow.
“Sorry,” Loki chuckles, reaching up to wring out his hair. “My magic doesn’t get along well with alcohol.”
You freeze and Elliot takes a step back—something about this tells him this won’t be pretty.
“Loki?”
He turns to you with a smile and brings a hand up to cradle your cheek. “Hmm?”
You smack his hand away. “You’re drunk, aren’t you.”
He bites his lip with a small grin. “I brought some home for you, too, for once the children are in bed.”
“MOMMY, IT HURTS—”
“Get out of here,” you hoarsely tell him, tears pooling in your eyes. “I can’t deal with you right now, Loki, get out.”
He just blinks, brow furrowing at your tears. “Why are you crying, my love?”
“Dad,” Elliot pipes up before you can explode at him, cautiously placing a hand on Loki’s arm. “You should go, um, take a shower.”
“Why—”
“GET OUT!!” You shout, pushing past him to scoop Frigg off the counter, abandoning the sink issue until the screeching daughter has been stopped.
Drunkenness aside, Loki seems to know what’s best for him, given how he nods and quickly retreats to your room, already shedding his soaked shirt before the door shuts behind him.
“Sorry, mom.” Elliot trails behind you as you take Frigg to the bathroom, helping her out of her pajamas and turning on the shower. “I don’t think dad means anything by it, I think he just came in at the wrong time.”
“Don’t worry,” you sigh, wiping off a mix of sink water and tears with your sleeve. “I’ll talk to him, there’s just too much going on right now. Frigg, sweetie, screaming isn’t going to help, just put your face under the water.”
She shakes her head, teary eyes squeezed shut.
“C’mon, Frigg, you have to get the soap out of your eyes.” You try to guide her under the stream of water, but she fights against you and shakes her head again.
“NO!”
“It’ll make your eyes feel better,” you promise, trying again to pull her into the water. “Elliot, take all the towels from in here and start drying up what you can in the kitchen, okay?”
He nods and gathers up all the towels, taking them out to the kitchen as you give up and climb in the shower with Frigg; you’re already soaked from Loki’s little sink display.
Picking her up, you carefully step under the water and hold her close when she tries to hide from the water, trying to let the gentle stream land on her face.
“See? It’s warm, it won’t hurt you.” You reach over and start gently rubbing her eyes, carefully trying to lift her eyelid to let the clean water rinse away the soap. “Mommy’s got you. It’s just gonna hurt for a little longer, I promise it’ll go away.”
Thankfully she falls slack in your grip and the screams reduce to quiet sniffles, her little arms tightly hugging your neck as you gently wash off her face.
“There we go! Doesn’t that feel better?” Shutting off the water, you step out of the shower and reach for a towel—oh.
Elliot took all the towels. That’s right.
“Now m’all cold, mommy,” Frigg mumbles, hugging your soaked shirt closer.
“Let’s go find dad.”
You really don’t want to have to see him yet, but if all the towels in the house are being used to block a broken pipe, he’ll have to do.
You carry Frigg to your bedroom, knuckles rapping on the door before you step inside. Loki’s wrapped his waist in a towel, digging around in a drawer for a change of clothes, and he looks up with a bright grin when you walk in with Frigg in your arms.
“There’s my girls!”
“We’re out of towels,” you say curtly, stopping before you reach him. “Dry us off?”
His face falls when you won’t round the edge of the bed, but he nods and gives you a sheepish grin as he comes over to place a hand on Frigg’s back.
“Can we talk?” He asks quietly, warm air surrounding you, Frigg nuzzling deeper into the crook of your neck. “I know you’re mad.”
“Not right now,” you mutter, hoisting her higher on your hip. “I’ve got kids to put to bed. And a house to fix. And a drunk husband to take care of.”
“I’m not drunk anymore,” he promises, running his hands up and down your arms with a sad lift of his eyebrow. “I’ll explain everything.”
“Later.”
He doesn’t argue, just sending one more wave of warm air over the two of you and leaning in to press a quick kiss to your forehead before you can duck away.
“Thanks.”
Hugging Frigg a little tighter, you carry her back to the bathroom and help her into her pajamas. The sound of rushing water seems to have gone down, hopefully meaning that Elliot figured something out with the sink, so you tuck Frigg into bed and kiss her goodnight before going out to check on him.
“Fixed it,” Elliot proudly announces, spreading his arms towards the flooded sink.
Sure enough, by some miracle, the stream of water at least has stopped spraying.
“What’d you do?” You drop to your knees and help him finish drying off the floor, gathering armfuls of soaked towels into your arms and lugging them off to the laundry room wth Elliot trailing behind.
“The water was on,” he explains with a quick snort of laughter, helping you dump all the towels into the washer. “I just turned off the faucet ‘n tied up the pipe with a towel.”
“You’re joking, right?”
“No,” he giggles, shaking his head at the smile starting to hint at your lips. “We’re just that dumb.”
You can’t help it—you laugh, reaching over to ruffle a hand through his wet hair. “Thanks for everything, Elliot. You’re a lifesaver.”
“Anytime, mom.” He wraps an arm around your waist for a wet hug, following you back out to the living room. “Is Frigg okay?”
“Yeah,” you sigh, rubbing your eyes with the back of your hand. “Had to rinse her eyes out, but she’s asleep now.”
“She told me she thought the soap smelled good,” he giggles, stopping in his bedroom doorway to look up at you. “So she wanted to see if it looked as pretty as it smelled.”
You shake your head with a grin as he doubles over with muffled laughter. “Okay, maybe she’s not the sharpest tool in the shed,” you laugh, running a hand through his curls. “Yet. She’s only three.”
He just cracks up again, leaning against the doorway to catch his breath. “Gosh, I love her,” he grins, a hand to his heart as a few stray laughs escape. “Oh, and mom? Don’t go too hard on dad, please? He’s really sorry, I can tell.”
You wrap your kid in a hug, pressing your lips to the top of his head. “I won’t,” you assure him. “And I’m not mad at him, it was just a whole lot of bad timing. I’m sorry I shouted at him.”
“S’alright,” he replies softly, hugging you tighter. “Just make sure he knows that. It’s tearin’ him up inside.”
* * * * * * * *
You feel like you’re about to scold one of your kids, with the amount of guilt etched across Loki’s face.
He shoots to his feet when you open the door, lifting a halfhearted hand to you. “I am so, so sorry,” he blurts, “I never should’ve left you—”
“No, don’t be.” You wave away his apologies and trudge over to him, glancing anywhere but at his face. “You have a good time?”
“Don’t brush this off,” he frowns, gently placing a finger under your chin and tilting your head towards him. “Be mad at me. You’re too forgiving. I’ve done plenty tonight to constitute your being upset with me.”
“It was just bad timing,” you weakly argue, crossed arms falling to your sides. “Sorry I shouted at you.”
“I came home drunk, left you to care for our children, I insulted you as a mother and my wife. You should hate me.”
“I just want to sleep,” you whisper, wrapping your fingers around his wrist and pulling his hand away. “I’m so tired, Loki, let’s just go to bed.”
You shrug off his hands and crawl in bed, your back to Loki, reaching over to turn off the light before he can say anything else.
“G’night,” you mumble, blinking back tears.
Crap. You forgot about the leak in Elliot’s room. That’ll have to be tomorrow’s problem.
Loki doesn’t come to bed that night. You hear him get in the shower—again, you guess, he’d already showered once to sober up, but you’re not going to question it—and then he leaves the room, quietly shutting the door behind him.
After about an hour of tossing and turning among the empty sheets, you give up and drag yourself out the door.
The carpet in the living room is still damp from all the water you, Elliot, and Frigg had dripped across the house, squishing under your toes when you see Loki curled up on the couch, eyes tightly shut.
Idiot.
You give his hips a good shove to make some room, lifting his arm and tucking yourself back against his body as he quietly grunts in his sleep.
“You could’ve stayed in bed with me,” you whisper, pulling his arm tight around your chest.
“Don’t deserve to.”
“You’re such an idiot.”
The arm around you tightens and he buries his face in the curve of your neck, placing one single soft kiss there. “Agreed.”
You’re asleep within minutes.
There’s a weight on your chest when you eventually wake up—and it’s definitely well past six in the morning.
Your eyes fly wide open.
You were supposed to be somewhere by now.
Immediately trying to worm your way out from under the dead weight on your chest, you realise it’s Loki and he just grips you tighter, his head on your chest and arms tight around your waist.
“I cancelled it,” he grunts, holding you down until you finally go slack under him, slightly breathless.
“That’s rude,” you huff, smacking weakly at his arm. “I needed to go to that, Tony was counting on me—”
“No, you needed to rest.” He catches your wrist and brings it to his lips, eyes still closed. “I already took Elliot to school, Frigg’s still asleep.”
“…thanks.”
“Mm.” He nuzzles into your neck, thumb brushing along your wrist. “I also need to speak with you.”
“Nooo,” you groan, running a hand through his hair. “I don’t wanna talk about it, let’s just move on.”
“Don’t move.” He squeezes your waist with his arms, planting a kiss on your collarbone. “You don’t have to respond, but I want you to hear my apology.”
You don’t reply, but your fingers tangle in his hair, so Loki keeps talking.
“I’m so sorry for not being here for you,” he murmurs. “I have no excuse. The same responsibility you carry for our family should fall on me as well, yet I threw that away last night for a few drinks with my brother. I was careless and self consumed, and I am so, so sorry.”
“Thanks.” Picking up a chunk of his hair to braid, you focus on that to avoid his gaze. “I’m not mad at you for going out, y’know. It was really just a whole lot of craziness and bad timing.”
“That’s no excuse,” he quietly replies. “I’m so sorry. How can I make this up to you?”
“You don’t have to.” You smile down at him, poking a finger into his cheek. “Really, it was just bad timing. I mean, when have you not gone out with Thor and come back tipsy? Plus he said he needed to celebrate, so I really shouldn’t be surprised.”
He smiles, just the corners of his lips curling into your skin. “Fair point, but I think that just means you should be upset at the both of us.”
A content silence settles over the living room, the two of you huddled on top of each other to not fall off the couch. It’s a blissful moment of peace and quiet before Frigg wakes up, a moment of just the two of you that’s become increasingly rare.
Fingers lost in Loki’s hair, your mind wanders back to the leak in Elliot’s room and the broken pipe you’re going to have to pay for yourself.
“Loki?”
He opens one eye to glance up at you. “Hm?”
“I think we should move.”
At that, he shifts, practically laying on top of you to stare up at you playing with his hair. “Where to?”
“Anywhere.” Still focused on his braid, you don’t look him in the eye. “This place is too small for our family, and we shouldn’t be living in conditions like this. Plus you’re like, a king, so I feel bad for putting you in a dump like this.”
“Don’t feel bad,” Loki frowns, shaking his head at you—and messing up the braid.
“Hey!”
“Sorry.” He winces and quickly lowers his head again, letting you start braiding again. “Don’t you dare feel bad about me, I couldn’t have even begun to dream of having a life as wonderful as this.”
“But you always say that.”
“Because I mean it,” he mumbles into your neck, eyelashes brushing your skin as his eyes close again. “Would you like to move to Asgard?”
You fall silent, just crossing one little strand of hair over the other over and over and over.
It sounds great. In theory.
Moving a family of four to a different realm is a much more daunting task than it seems—there’s a bit more than just a time change involved.
“We’d all have to become immortal, right?”
“Only if we choose to become royalty again,” he replies.
“Is that even an option? After…y’know.” You swallow thickly, wishing you hadn’t brought it up in the first place.
“All I’ve done?”
You just nod, glad his face is in your neck, hidden from sight.
With the churning of his insides, Loki doesn’t want to answer you—and luckily, he doesn’t have to.
Little footsteps come clambering into the living room before either of you have a chance to say anything more.
Frigg’s crying. Again.
“Why you not in bed??” She sobs, lifting her arms up to Loki, little fingers grabbing for him. “Daddy, you not in bed!”
Sitting up, he chuckles and lifts her into his lap, quickly wrapping her in a hug. “Your mother and I slept out here. See? Now we’re just closer to the kitchen for breakfast.”
“I looked for you,” she sniffs, nuzzling into his chest. “You weren’t there.”
“We’re right here,” you assure her, “we’ve been here the whole time. Are you hungry?”
The little girl nods, rubbing her face into Loki’s shirt. You bite back a laugh; he silently blanches, his look of feigned disgust morphing into a chuckle at the tear-stains and snot-stains now striping his shirt.
Never would’ve thought he could be so thrilled to have snot rubbed across his favourite cotton shirt, but if it’s coming from his little girl, he can’t complain.
“Come with me, Frigg.” He presses a kiss to her forehead, pulling himself off the couch to carry her towards the kitchen. “What would you like to eat?”
“Waffle,” she mumbles, one little hand mindlessly winding itself into Loki’s hair. “M’still sleepy, daddy.”
“You can go back to sleep, sæta,” he murmurs—you sit up, trying to keep an eye on them—and when she nuzzles closer into the curve of his neck with a sleepy nod, your heart melts at the soft smile on Loki’s face.
“I’ll wake you when your waffle is ready.”
Damn it.
Nothing works quite like a little kid to remind you just how much you love someone.
“And you, my love?” His daughter dozing off on one hip, he pokes his head out the doorway. “What would you like?”
“Didn’t you say last night that you brought something home for the two of us?” You yawn as you stretch, pulling yourself to your feet.
He laughs with a nod. “Shall we start our day off with a drink, then?”
“Please.”
The two of you work your ways around the kitchen, Loki holding Frigg in one arm as she naps and he cooks, you pouring the strange liquor out of the elegant Asgardian bottle into two glasses and carrying them back to the couch.
Loki joins you a few moments after, setting the plates on the coffee table and carefully lowering Frigg onto the couch as she stirs.
“Cheers, my love.” He smiles, situating himself next to you on the couch and picking up his glass.
You lean back onto him with your own glass, clinking it against his as he presses his lips to your temple, an arm winding it way around your chest. “Love you, Lokes.”
“HEY!”
Frigg jolts upright before the rim has even hit your lips, a chubby little finger pointed right at the two of you. “Can I haff some?”
Loki laughs, gently pushing you off of him to stand back up. “Give me just a moment, sæta.”
“Loki,” you call out after him, hurrying to set your glass down, “she’s three, she can’t have this—”
“Apple juice,” Loki replies with another laugh, reemerging from the kitchen with a green sippy-cup in hand. “It’s just apple juice. The best drink for when your three years of life are already adding up.”
Frigg reaches for the cup with a quiet whine, little fingers scrunching up as she bounces. “Thank you!”
Grabbing his wrist with a laugh, you pull Loki back over to sit behind you so you can lean against him again. “Well, it’s tough being a three year old, isn’t it?”
“Mm. The absolute worst.”
“What a life,” you chuckle as Frigg tears into her waffle, not bothering with syrup—or a plate, for that matter. “Think she would like it on Asgard?”
He takes a sip of his drink, wincing at the burn of it going down. “Oh, she would love it. Have you seen the way she looks at the world? I can’t take my eyes off of her for one second when we’re outside, she’ll go anywhere she hasn’t been and probably never come back.”
Frigg’s bright, green eyes flit up to look at the two of you watching her, gnawing absently on the straw of her sippy-cup.
“There’s no better place to feed a child’s curiosity,” Loki quietly continues as he looks at her, thumb rubbing slowly over your shoulder. “Though some of my worst memories are housed there, it does me no good to dwell on them. Asgard is not to blame.”
“What about Elliot?” You lean over to Frigg, helping her rip apart a particularly stubborn chunk of waffle. “Seems like it’d be good for him. He’s not the biggest fan of this planet, I don’t think.”
Loki laughs, drawing you back into his embrace. “Do you remember the first time he experienced Asgard—besides as an infant, of course? I’ve never seen him so excited.”
“Yeah,” you smile at the memory, the stars in his eyes and dimples like craters on the moon. “We should ask him how he’d feel about moving.”
“We should. There’s no rush, love, we can leave for Asgard whenever we see fit. If there is any hesitation, I say we wait and continue our lives here, and if it is meant to be part of our journey, it will be.”
Your phone buzzes then, shattering the peaceful air resting over the morning.
Ah. The landlord’s texted you the plumbing company he’d like you to hire—“for your water problem,” the text reads. Oh, so helpful.
“Tell you what,” you sigh, tossing your phone back onto the table and settling back against Loki’s chest. “We give Earth two more years to impress us. If no obvious signs have shown up, no clear reasons for us to stay, we move.”
“And if we do stay?” Loki plants another instinctive kiss to your temple, eyes still trained on your daughter eating.
“Then we just…stay.” You tilt your head up to steal a kiss, fingers running along his jaw. “I mean, it’s not like this isn’t the dream life, either. I love what we have. Let’s just…keep open minds, yeah?”
Loki smiles, raising his wine glass. “You have yourself a deal, my darling.”
You clink your glass against his with a grin, undeniable butterflies already fluttering around in the pit of your stomach about what may come. “Deal.”
“Wait, I wanna, too!” Tossing her waffle aside, Frigg grabs her apple juice and scrambles over to plop herself right in front of the two of you.
“And are you in agreement, Frigg?” Loki chuckles. “Any terms you’d care to add, or is this a deal?”
“Deal,” Frigg giggles, raising her little sippy-cup to bump into your wine glasses.
“Well.” Loki takes one last sip of his drink before pouring the rest into your glass with a soft smile. “There’s no going back now, is there.”

Just out of curiosity, what's Frigg's full name?
Frigg Eir Lokadóttir :)
Eir is an old norse name meaning “mercy” which I think is pretty fitting for the conditions of her birth. she’s a mercy shown to Loki🤧 so we have Frigg Eir Lokadóttir (beloved mercy) and Elliot Arkyn Lokason (eternal king’s son) which makes for one happy family!
the twins....you’ll find out soon enough ;)

Hello, I hope you have a nice evening, morning, afternoon or whenever you read it and in whole just a good day🌸 Secondly I'd like to ask: how would Loki react, if Elliot doesn't think girls are 'bleegh' anymore? Would Loki give Elliot advice on how he courted the reader? I'm sorry if you don't take these requests and I'm sorry if that made you uncomfortable in any way. Stay healthy and happy🌸
thankyouforrequestingthissokindlywtfthatmademesohappy
also i know i didn’t get to the actual “advice” but this was getting really long so that part will be a separate drabble h e h
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
“Hey, dad?”
Loki nods, biting the tip of his tongue as he carefully measures a teaspoon of olive oil. “Hm?”
“You busy right now?”
“A bit,” he murmurs, focusing on not spilling—the tiny little measuring spoons you got years ago are much to small for his fingers.
Elliot quickly nods. “Gotcha. I’ll, um, come back later.”
“No, no, I can multitask, what can I do for you?”
“It’s all good,” Elliot assures him, backing out of the kitchen. “It’s stupid anyways, I’ll just ask mom or look it up or something.”
“Elliot,” Loki laughs, setting down the olive oil and grabbing a wooden spoon, pointing it at his son, then at the fridge. “Talk to me. And get me a stick of butter, I could use the help.”
A little smile lights the kid’s face and he rushes to the fridge, grabbing the butter and tossing it to Loki. “You know I can’t cook,” he reminds him, leaning against the counter as Loki mixes. “So I don’t think I can be of much help, but I’ll try.”
“You didn’t get that from me,” Loki chuckles. “Blame your mother. What did you need?”
“That’s kinda what I wanted to ask you about.”
“Your mother?” Loki glances at the time—good, you’re not supposed to be home for another hour. “Are you wondering how she ended up with someone like me?”
“Not really, I think I get that part,” Elliot replies, rubbing the back of his neck. “Kind of. I don’t know. Um, I just was wondering if you, um…”
“…yes?”
“If-if you could maybe, I don’t know, give me some advice?”
The wooden spoon falls to the counter with a clatter.
Oh, no big deal, Loki’s son just came to him seeking advice, trusting him to lead him in the right direction with his knowledge and guidance, trusting him not to steer him wrong, that’s all.
Easily one of the best moments in Loki’s thousands of years of life.
“O-of course, I’d be happy to help,” he stutters, quickly trying to cover his surprise. “Advice with what?”
A relieved grin breaking over his lips, Elliot shuffles a little closer to his dad at the stove. “There’s, uh, this girl.”
Loki all but chokes, dropping the spoon in his risotto and whirling around to his son.
“There’s a WHAT??”
“A girl,” Elliot laughs sheepishly, picking up the fallen spoon and handing it back to Loki. “C’mon, dad, don’t make this weird.”
“Okay, right, sure.” Loki nods, trying to control his grin. “What advice do you need?”
“Well, I, um, don’t know if she likes me back.”
“You are in love with someone who doesn’t like you?”
“No!” Elliot backtracks, eyes wide. “No, no, no, I didn’t say I’m in love with her, yikes, no—”
“Why do you say that like it’s a bad thing?”
“I can’t be in love, dad, that’s…not possible. I just like her.”
“Not possible,” Loki repeats slowly, going back to his cooking. “You know, your mother tried to kill me when we first met. I didn’t think loving her would be possible either, but here we are.”
“So you’re saying if Morgan tries to kill me, she might love me?” Elliot snorts and shakes his head. “Nah, thanks, dad. I think you and mom were just a little weird. Special case.”
No answer.
Loki’s frozen at the stove, knuckles turning white around the handle of his spoon—he must have misheard the name.
Not Morgan…Stark, right?
“N-no,” he tries to bring himself back, give the best advice he can—giving advice? Yeah, this is a first for Loki. “I only mean to say…love, if you, erm, believe in that sort of thing, it’s—it’s different for everyone, a-and you never know where you might find it—”
“But I know where I found it,” Elliot cuts in, confusion etching itself into his brow as Loki rambles. “I just don’t know what to do with it. What’d you do when you figured out you loved mom?”
Loki swallows thickly. Gods, he wishes you were home for this conversation. The puberty talk was fun enough on his own, but now this?
A little part of him wonders if it’s healthy to be scared to talk to your children, yet here he is, heart pounding and palms starting to sweat as Elliot waits for him to answer.
Elliot repeats the question, a little quieter, gentler this time.
Oh, gods.
“Y-you should ask your mother,” he quietly offers, keeping his gaze trained on his cooking. “She’s better at this, all these, ah…” he breathes a quiet laugh. “Emotions.”
His dish isn’t turning out well, honestly, the rice is a bit burned and the sauce seems to be about to break on him. Wonderful.
It was supposed to be a surprise for you, since you’d been gone most of the day after weeks of little sleep, a surplus of work, and Frigg deciding she “doesn’t need third grade” after all.
For the record, he’s a supporter of the little movement.
“Okay.” Elliot nods, glancing at the mess on the counter. “Do you want some time alone? You don’t look too good, I don’t want to be a bother…”
“No,” Loki snaps and his fist hits the countertop, sending measuring cups flying as he stares at his failed meal.
Elliot flinches and takes a step back.
“Mom’ll be home any minute,” he reminds him, palms up in front of him. “I’m sorry, I’m really, really sorry if I said something, dad, really—”
“Please don’t leave.” Loki’s voice cracks and Elliot gulps.
“Okay.”
A moment passes, Loki hunched over the counter and gripping the edge in a white-knuckled hold, Elliot watching cautiously from the doorway, picking at the palm of one hand.
Laughter breaks the silence, Loki’s, Elliot realises, his dad is laughing now and sounds borderline psychotic.
“What did I do?” Loki turns to him, eyes bloodshot and swimming with unfalling tears. “Yes…what did I do when I realised I loved your mother?”
Elliot just stares, wishing you were here, too.
“You want to know—w-what I did,” Loki laughs behind a wet sniff, “when I realised I loved your mother? I denied it for months, Elliot, and I treated her like a piece of shit.”
A hollow, dull ache fills the boy’s chest and the room goes cold—Loki doesn’t cuss in front of him or Frigg; only on the rarest of occasions when he needs to really, really emphasise a point.
“I acted like I hated her,” he spits out, eyes flashing, “and many times convinced myself that I did, a-and when I finally admitted I-I loved her, she wanted nothing to do with me because I’d ruined every single chance to love her with my arrogance a-and my stupidity—”
“Dad, dad, easy,” Elliot laughs nervously, rushing to Loki’s side and laying a cautious hand on his arm. “It’s alright.”
Loki pauses, taking a deep breath and glaring at the ground, hating himself for snapping so easily in front of his son.
“Is this…something to do with your past?”
Ignorant little boy. Beautiful, ignorant, clueless, perfect little boy.
“The part you won’t tell us about,” Elliot clarifies. “‘Cause I didn’t mean to trigger anything, dad, I’m sorry, I really didn’t.”
“Don’t apologise.” Loki runs a hand over his face, exhaling heavily and trying to rub away the tears left in his eyes. “Gods, don’t ever apologise to me, I don’t deserve that.”
“Okay, but—”
“And you’d never be a bother,” he keeps whispering, an intensity in his voice to match that burning in his eyes when he grabs Elliot by the shoulders and bends down to eye level. “Thank you for coming to me, I-I’m so sorry I did this to you, put you through this—”
“We’re baaack!”
Frigg flounces through the door, slamming it behind her—right in your face, but you just sigh and trudge in after her.
“There she is,” Loki laughs, squeezing Elliot’s arm once more before bending down to swoop his little princess into his arms.
A flicker of light flashes over Loki’s face, a split second of changing energy, too quick for your tired eyes to catch or for Frigg to notice in the midst of her hug—Elliot sees it.
He glances up at his father, seeing a smiling, fresh face, full of light and nothing like the broken man he’d just encountered.
Elliot’s learning that his dad is a really good liar.
“Get expelled yet?” Loki plants a kiss on Frigg’s cheek, smiling all the while.
“Not yet,” she giggles, hugging him tight around the neck. “M’gonna need some help for that.”
“Just tell me what you need.”
“Loki,” you yawn, waving a hand at the three of them. “Don’t encourage this, she’s already gaining supporters on the playground.”
“Are you really?” Loki sets her down, grabbing her hand and guiding her in a quick twirl. “You’ll be a fearsome queen one day, Frigg. I can already see you on your throne, leading your people to prosper—”
“How about a shower for her majesty first,” you jump in with a pointed look to your husband, “and ruling kingdoms later??”
“I would listen to the current queen, if I were you.” Loki raises an eyebrow at his daughter. “Obey and you might just survive her rule.”
Frigg immediately straightens up, flinging a stiff salute at you and bolting off down the hallway to her room.
“Good lord,” you groan, sinking into a chair at the table. “She’s…she’s…your child.”
You wave a hand at Loki.
“Goddess of mischief,” he laughs, and Elliot glances at him—there’s no use hiding it anymore, right? Frigg’s gone, you’re here…
Nope. Loki walks to your side, tilts your head up to plant a kiss to your lips, brushing his thumb over your cheek as you hum happily and lean against him.
“Well, I attempted a risotto.” Loki sighs and gestures at the mess across the kitchen. “I had hoped to surprise you, but…no such luck.”
“Aw, thank you,” you mumble, reaching for him again and pulling him down for another sloppy kiss. “S’sweet of you, I bet it’s really good.”
“It’s…not.”
Elliot wants to laugh, awkwardly watching the two of you, but it’s more painful than heartwarming or humorous to watch his dad act this time, knowing what he’s really hiding.
“Want me to order takeout again?” Plastering a smile on his face, Elliot walks over and gives you a quick hug.
“That…might be best,” you reply, hugging your son back and giving Loki a sheepish grin over his shoulder. “Unless you wanna eat it anyways, Loki?”
“No.” Loki shakes his head with a laugh. “I’ll cook for you tomorrow, it’ll be better, I promise.”
Elliot desperately wants to say something, warn you about what happened and suggest maybe you eat the attempted meal anyways, but Loki just smiles and laughs and ruffles a hand through his hair.
“Thanks, Elliot.”
His smile seems sad behind the facade, and he squeezes Elliot’s arm as he walks by—almost like he wants to say something more.
But he doesn’t, he takes your hand in his and follows you as you lead him out of the kitchen, apparently unbothered by what just happened.
…leaving Elliot standing in the middle of the kitchen, extremely confused.
* * * *
After a lovely dinner with thankfully only one wonton thrown across the table—you’d expected Frigg to start it, but nope, thanks, Loki, very mature—you noticed Loki’s a bit…off.
Not terribly off, no, just acting a little bit strange.
A little distant, distracted, and he doesn’t even laugh when you tell him about the “mimicking the principals voice and telling her teacher he’s fired” phone call that Frigg had managed to pull off today.
His mind is clearly elsewhere as you kiss your kids goodnight and send them off to bed, clearly elsewhere when you drag him out of his little library-office to go get ready for bed, only for him to flop onto the mattress and curl in on himself, hugging his knees to his chest.
“Okay, what’s going on?”
Climbing onto the bed and poking his turned back, you peek over his shoulder. “Seriously, Loki, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” He pulls a pillow over his head.
Very. Very. Mature.
“You’re a bad liar,” you sing, yanking the pillow off his head and pressing a loud smooch to his cheek before he can protest. “How many times do I have to tell you? I can see right through you, trickster.”
“You’re just nosy,” he grumbles, but sits up and crosses his arms. “I only ruined every good idea my son may have had of me, that’s all, will you leave me alone now?”
You blink a couple times in shock, flabbergasted and more than confused.
“What are you talking about?? Elliot loves you, he thinks you’re incredible!” You scramble over the bed to wrap your arms around him, hugging him tight to your chest. “You’re his biggest role model, his hero, my hero, and we love you. And like hell I’m gonna leave you alone, nice try.”
“He came to me asking for my advice.”
“Loki, that’s amazing,” you murmur, stroking a hand through his hair. “I can only imagine how much that must mean to you, that’s wonderful, snowflake—”
“Know what I did?”
Voice gone sour, he pushes out of your hug and looks you intently in the eye.
“Yelled,” he hoarsely tells you. “I yelled and I punched the counter and I told him that I hated you, and-and I cried, I broke down and wept in front of my son like a fool, a-and—”
A sob cracks through the room.
“Fuck.” He drops his head to his hands, shoulders shaking. “Damn it, I can’t stop fucking crying.”
Heart pounding, you hurry to sit on the edge of the bed next to him, rubbing a comforting hand up and down his spine.
“Hey, Loki, honey…where’s all this coming from?”
“Like hell I know,” he spits, hiding his face in his hands, hunched over with elbows on his knees as you try to comfort him. “I had a chance. I had a fucking chance with him and I threw it away, made his ‘advice’ all about my own sick problems like the selfish, fucking idiot I am.”
“Loki! You’re not selfish, what the hell are you talking about?”
“Yes, I am, my son came to me admitting to possibly being in love with someone and by the end of the conversation, my son was comforting me, being gentle with me, reassuring me in my relationship—”
“Wait, wait, Elliot’s in love with someone?”
Loki’s mouth snaps shut—the more he thinks about it, he’d nearly forgotten the initial topic of Elliot’s asking for advice.
“That’s what he told me,” he answers quietly, staring at his hands. “Someone named Morgan. We didn’t even get to talk much about it before I ruined the moment, as you know I do so well.”
A smile tugs at the corners of your mouth as you take his hands in yours—finally, Elliot.
“Well, that’s wonderful,” you laugh, rubbing his back and tilting his head up with a finger under his chin. “But know what’s even better?”
The glare Loki shoots you could only be described as royal.
“He told you.” Your fingers curl around his jaw and you pull him closer. “Your son still told you that, he came to you and wanted to share that with you, he wanted your advice, Loki.”
“Yes, and I ruined it and pushed him away like I always do, I just told him to go talk to you.”
“He didn’t.” Resting your forehead against his, you stroke a thumb along his jaw, smiling softly at him. “He never said anything about this to me, snowflake, he wants you to help him.”
“Oh.”
Loki falls silent, head slowly leaning into your touch.
Whenever you hold him like this, arm around his shoulders and now hugging his head in the crook of your neck, running languid fingers through his hair, Loki swears he can count the days of his life.
This seems so…mortal. This whole failure thing.
Humans are so good at failing—it’s the one thing he’s noticed since he first started watching Midgard.
You’re good at failing. It doesn’t scare you, it seems; you rush head-on into uncharted territory and look for things to try, just so you can fail and try again.
You actually like his failures, calling them opportunities and learning experiences and helping him back up, forgiving him time and time again like the clueless idiot you must be to love him—
More failure, his mind spins, just another person to disappoint.
He’s known that since the first moment he held Elliot’s tiny form in his hands.
Your fingers curl and brush through his hair, heartbeat steady under his head.
“…what do I do?”
You press your lips to his forehead, brushing some strands of hair behind his ear. “You could start by going a little easier on yourself. Have some faith that you’re not completely unlovable.”
He gives a dry laugh. “Not completely?”
“Mmm…I don’t know,” you giggle, hoping your smile can help get him back on his feet. “There’s just something about you I can’t help but love.”
Half a lopsided smile tugs at his lips.
“I’ll try.”
“Good.” You hop to your feet to stand in front of him, grabbing his face between your hands and gazing seriously into his eyes. “Know what else?”
“What?”
“I’m pretty sure Elliot’s room is just a hallway away. And I’m pretty sure he’s still awake, wondering how the hell to successfully court a certain fair maiden.”
“Oh, gods, no.” Loki stands up, furiously shaking his head. “What am I supposed to tell him? Well,” he sarcastically starts, “you could always burn down her office building, asking her to kill you seemed to work well for me—”
“No, no, no,” you laugh, jumping up after him and pulling him into another hug. “Just talk to him about…doing nice things for her, things he wouldn’t normally do. Just get him to talk about his feelings about her, and report everything back to me, I’ve been waiting years for these two to get together.”
Loki frowns. “You know this girl?”
“You do, too, snowflake.” A giddy grin spreads across your face. “Morgan?”
“Wait, no.” His eyes wide, he takes a step away from you. “No, no, no, not Morgan Stark, tell me it’s not her.”
Biting back a laugh, you raise an eyebrow at him. “Do you know any other Morgans?”
“My son is in love with Tony Stark’s daughter.”
“Get used to it.”
“Do you have any idea what hell this is going to unleash?? Stark is going to wring my neck, and gods forbid Elliot ever upset her—if he even allows it—or it’s my own back taking the lashings—”
“Just go,” you laugh, pushing him towards the door. “Teach him how to be just as romantic as you are and just as adorable and absolutely, completely irresistible.”

spoilers for frigg’s character development?
hmm...well, she’s going to be an icy lil firecracker with a mind of her own! as you’ll see in the story of her birth, she’s kind of a miracle baby, so I think she has an inborn lust for life that’ll get her into trouble as a little kid but lead to adorable chaos at the same time, something that her and Loki will definitely share
Both of them kind of got second chances at life in their own ways, so they have that special bond. Plus lil Frigg will have Loki wrapped around her tiny finger. Most definitely.
I’m thinking she’s going to be pretty in control of her two forms, a quick learner, very skilled as a sorceress. Better than Elliot, for sure, which is definitely going to impact the both of their developments :’)
Both Elliot and Frigg splotch with blue when jötun, a mix of both human and jötun similar to vitiligo, Frigg can actually control when it happens. Granted, it can sneak up on her sometimes, but while Elliot can only sometimes stop the blue from spreading, Frigg can pretty much control her switching.

ok but reader and loki debating over who's gonna be frigga's favorite when we all know it's gonna be elliot
anon has the right idea
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
So baby Frigg. Let’s talk about her. She likes to cry.
Constantly.
She wails, screams, sobs, and especially at night.
After the first four nights of her being home, both you and Loki were running on two hours of sleep (combined) and trying every possible thing to get her back to sleep.
She’s devious, actually. She’ll fall asleep, stay quiet long enough for the two of you to drift back to sleep, then start thrashing again, wailing at the top of her little lungs.
Loki’s nearly in tears by the…I don’t know, seventh time tonight? He hates the sound of crying. Drives him insane, after all he’s been through, after all the crying he’s done himself.
He always starts shaking, gets all pale, starts showing most symptoms of a panic attack; now, he has layers of sleep deprivation just to add to it.
You shush him when he jolts awake again at her cries, cold sweat making his hair stick to his cheeks.
“I’ll take care of her,” you whisper, brushing a hand over his forehead. “Sleep, Loki, go back to sleep.”
“N-no, I can help—”
“Shh. I’ve got it.”
You, uh, definitely haven’t got it.
Frigg cries and cries and cries and you rock her, you feed her, you change her diaper, you sing to her, take her outside…nothing.
A thought of Elliot trying to sleep passes your mind. Already dreading waking Loki back up, you take the crying baby back inside.
“Hey, Loki.” You rub a hand over his shoulder, but he’s already awake, head shoved under a pillow. “Can you keep her cries to our room? Some kind of silencing thing, so she doesn’t wake up Elliot?”
He nods, yawns, and twitches a hand.
“Thanks, love.” Back to bouncing Frigg around the room.
Still crying, she starts shaking, too, and you hurry her back over to Loki; this might be getting out of your hands.
“Sorry, Loki, I think she’s actually in pain.” You try to nudge your sleeping husband, your baby squirming out of your hands. “Can you do something about her? Please? Is there anything we can do for her?”
No response besides a snore.
At least he’s asleep, finally. Leaving you alone to deal with this child, but hey, that’s fine, marriage is all about self sacrifice…
Tears are even starting to prick your eyes when she wakes you up again, having just quieted for about four minutes—just enough time for your head to hit the headboard and let you drift off. The constant up and down is worse than if she just kept you up all night.
But she’s back to crying, back to squirming, and Loki hasn’t moved.
You check if he’s breathing, just in case.
Maybe feeding her will help again?
Yeah…no. No luck with that. You’re back to walking her around the room, showing her her dad—who honestly might’ve slipped into a coma, judging by the fact that he doesn’t budge—trying everything you can to just get her to stop crying.
The door creaks open and a tired pair of little blue-green eyes peek inside.
“What’d you do t’her, mom?”
At that point you actually nearly break down in tears—the exhaustion just hits and you flop back onto the bed, hugging Frigg tight and slowly realising that now you have two little kids to put back to bed at four in the morning.
And Loki is asleep.
He needs it, you swear to yourself, not even trusting your composure to respond to Elliot, he needs it, he needs it—
“S’okay, mom,” Elliot quietly assures you, rubbing his eyes and coming over to pat your arm. “S’not you, she’s cryin’ for somethin’ else.”
“Wha-what?” You sit back up, blinking tears out of your bloodshot eyes. “I’m sorry we woke you up, sweetie, I thought dad did a silencing thing.”
“Nope, I heard her all night.” He reaches for his crying little sister and you gladly hand her over, making sure he’s supporting her head and holding her tight. “Hey Blueberry!”
That at least brings an almost smile to your face, and you fight to keep your eyes open as he starts rocking her in his little arms.
“It’s me, Elliot, ‘member?” He bounces her a bit, grinning down at the baby. “I’m your big brother. Can you stop crying, please? I wanna talk to ya.”
“Good luck with that,” you laugh tiredly, grabbing your pillow from under Loki’s arm—again, he doesn’t budge.
You don’t bother lowering your voice; he’s out cold.
Elliot’s little Asgardian accent drones on in the background, mixing with Frigg’s wails, lulling you further into an exhausted rest until your head drops to the pillow and faster than a blink, you’ve fallen asleep.
* * * * * * * *
It’s quiet. Too quiet.
You wake with a jolt, blinking and whipping your head around looking for your baby—what the hell did you do with her last night??
Loki still doesn’t move, not when you throw his arm off of you and fall out of bed, scrambling to your feet and coming to a screeching halt at the sight you find in front of you.
Elliot’s asleep, slumped against the wall with Frigg on his shoulder.
Asleep.
Silent.
You sit back on the mattress with a thud, mind reeling as you stare at your son holding your little baby. She’s actually asleep, and apparently for long enough to allow Elliot to fall asleep, too, all cuddled up against his neck and breathing gently and not crying.
Saying a silent thank you to Elliot, you roll right back over with a grin and throw your arms over Loki’s waist.
He finally, finally moves.
Shoots straight up in bed, breaking right through your hug, and you have to really hold back from bursting into a fit of laughter.
“What in Valhalla—”
You immediately shush him, pointing at your sleeping kids. “He got her to sleep!”
Loki blinks at you and you can’t help but laugh.
He looks adorable. Still half asleep, his hair is an absolute wreck, smushed on one side and sticking out in weird angles, and there’s lines from his pillow wrinkling indentations into his cheek.
“You still look exhausted, cutie,” you laugh quietly, leaning over to plant a kiss on his chin—okay, you were aiming for his lips, but didn’t quite fall through.
“WHAT??”
“Loki, holy sh—” you clap both hands over his mouth.
He just yelled that.
“What the hell was that for?” You hiss, praying that he didn’t just wake the kiddos back up.
“What are you—”
“Shut up shut up shut up!!”
Okay, he’s not yelling, but he’s still not being quiet.
His eyes wide, confused, and puffy with sleep, he squirms out from under your hands and points at your mouth.
Can’t hear you, he mouths.
“What?”
Can’t hear you. No sound, what did you do?
Wait a minute.
It clicks for Loki at the exact moment your eyes widen in realisation, and he quickly taps a finger on his forehead, shaking his head and blinking a couple times.
“So, uh…that’s why you slept so well.”
“I’m so sorry,” he whispers, grabbing you and pulling you into a tight hug. “Gods, I’m so, so sorry, I thought I put it over our whole room, not just you and Frigg—”
“I’m offended,” you laugh, twisting around in his arms to pat his chest. “You really put a spell on your wife, just so you could sleep?”
“I didn’t mean—oh gods, I’m so sorry, did you get any sleep?” He runs a hand over your face, holding you away so he can look at you, inspect your tired face. “You look exhausted, love, I’m so sorry…”
“Gee, thanks, honey.” Pushing his hand away, you scoot forward and nestle into his arms, still wanting to go back to sleep. “You don’t look too hot yourself.”
“No, gods, that’s not what I meant—”
“I’m kidding,” you laugh, pulling him back down for a kiss. “Go to sleep, Elliot’s doing our job right now.”
“You’re beautiful,” he whispers, “even exhausted, you’re beautiful beyond belief.”
“Okay, sleepyhead, I said I was kidding.”
“I’m still sorry, I didn’t mean to do that—mmm.”
Maybe you had to practically crawl on top of him, push him back onto his pillow, and smash your lips to his, but hey.
At least now he won’t wake Elliot or Frigg.
“Thanks, Elliot,” Loki mumbles, drawing you into his arms and tucking you under his chin.
“Yeah,” you giggle, hugging him closer, “thanks, Elliot. Whatever you’re doing, don’t stop.”
