So I made another design in my series of Pride Norse designs, aka my "Fuck-off nazis, these symbols aren't for you!" designs, aka my "I hope we can make designs of them that are so blatantly gay they won't want to touch them anymore" designs. (Previous designs: Pride Loki Runes | Be Gay, Do Pride | Pride Yggdrasil with Runes | Pride Valknuts)
This time I drew Mjolnir and colored many versions with different Pride flags. I also made two versions of each design, one saying "You are Worthy" and another saying "I am Worthy," with the exception of a progress flag version that says "We are Worthy"
Here are some I've done so far:

(All designs are transparent. Images with colored backgrounds are for visibility purposes)
I do have plans to do more with other flags, but if you see I maybe haven't done yours yet, feel free to send me an ask.
Like the previous sets, I've got the full-res designs hosted on my Ko-fi as free downloads for anyone who wishes to use them. Print them on a shirt, make yourself stickers, use on gifts for others- whatever.
I also have them available on Threadless for those who can't print them on stuff themselves (or just don't feel like it) but still want something with the design on it. Each sale will also make an automatic donation to various LGBT+ charities like The Trevor Project and the It Gets Better Project.
(Note: I am completely aware that in the original Norse Mythology the "must be worthy" charm doesn't exist with Mjolnir. However, stories change and adapt over time, and people can find meaning in all interpretations of a story, including this popularized adaptation. I felt the message was just more important than being accurate to the original mythology, just in case anyone wanted to come through with a stick up their ass because "uM acTUaLLY, ThE WorthY pARt AcTuaLLy COMeS fRoM maRVeL...")

Loki isn’t the only one with a few tricks up his sleeve, especially when his alleged soulmate has some pretty intricate powers.
cw: afab reader, they/them pronouns, promiscuous & flirty but SFW, normal MCU warnings, Loki being Loki and Y/N being Y/N
this takes place in an imaginary track of time where everyone is happy and healthy and alive and whatever i say goes bc this is my au and i’m a fragile human
Tumblr media
You see, the funny thing about life is all of its little twists and turns. Your “what ifs” could’ve lead you down the exact same path you’re on right now, or it most definitely could not. You never know.
Except for Y/N.
They knew.
≿━━━━༺❀༻━━━━≾
“Hey Clint” You shout over the loud 70s music playing throughout the kitchen to the man who just walked in not even a second ago. “I’m making breakfast for the team. Tony wants everyone at the compound for some big meeting,,, which is probably why you’re here so never mind….. do you want waffles or pancakes?”
“How did you- oh wait, right, you have that whole sixth sense thing. So don’t you know the answer to that question?”
Sighing you nod “Waffles… I just hate freaking everyone out. I heard some of the SHIELD agents conspiring that I’m invading peoples minds and I don’t want them to get creeped out and-“
Cutting you off, Wanda and Vision walk into the room as Clint just shakes his head at you and walks towards the table to join the other members of the team.
“Ooooooh I almost forgot today was family brunch day!” Wanda says, unlatching her arm from Visions’s to give you a hug.
“Yes everything seems delightful Y/N. Did you need any help?” Vision asks, making his way over to the two of you.
“Oh just turn off the smoke alarm for me real quick.“
Not even two seconds later alarms start blaring throughout the great room and smoke makes its way out of the oven.
“Yeah, I knew I should’ve cleaned that last week and, wait, Wand, will you get that for me, I-“
Gasping, you jump around and look towards the elevator right as it softly chimes, letting its audience know that someone is making their way up the floors “THORS COMING TODAY!!! I DIDNT EVEN REGISTER THAT HE GOT BACK ONTO MIDGUARD. MUCH LESS IN THE BUILDING! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN- Wait.”
Turning again, you look at Wanda who is smirking and reloading the waffle maker.
“You bitch! Is that why you were so pushy about the spa day yesterday, especially the sensory deprivation tank!?!”
Laughing at you Wanda shrugs and goes back to finishing up your cooking while you wait by the elevator.
Almost a year ago, due to whatever sciencey stuff Banner tried explaining, you realized that you are able to communicate with different versions of yourself throughout the multiverse. Basically making you really sensitive to energy and vibrations, even allowing you to manipulate them with some training. That’s what made you and Wanda become so close. With similar abilities, the two of you just understood each other. So, when the Avengers found you as a prisoner in one of HYDRA's bases, the two of you became besties. Well, you and-
“Thor!!!!” You ran towards the tall Asgardian as soon as the elevator doors opened and launched yourself into his arms. Half expecting this, Thor lifts you up off the ground and spins the two of you around in a bear hug while his pot-bellied laugh fills the room.
“Ah! My little Forcefield! I have missed you too! But I can see that the surprise did not work. Who told?”
Wanda scoffs and hands a tray full of scrambled eggs to Vision who sets it down on the table “I did no such thing. They found out when you go up the elevator. I told you that when you have powers like ours, surprises do not come easy. I didn’t even believe that you’d make it this far.”
Laughing Thor sets you on the ground and calls mjolnir to his side before glancing back in the elevator and remembering his true purpose for being here. “Oh, uh. Hmm, right.”
“Oh goody Dear Brother, I was beginning to believe that you had forgotten about me.” the man says as he emerges from the elevator.
For the first time in who knows how long you are genuinely surprised to see another person stand behind you, causing you to actually jump back.
Confused and concerned, you push Thor out of the way and meet his brother right outside the elevator. Getting strangely close, you stick a hand out and reach towards him “Uh. Excuse me. Mortal. What are you doing? Br... Brother! Come get your pet!”
But before Thor can even listen you push your thumb against the strange man’s forehead and he starts to wince while his body flickers.
Shivering and breathing raggedly Loki blinks at you with his eye brows furrow and eyes wide while you bring your hand down. “Hey big guy, is your brother a hologram? Is that a thing on asguard?”
Thor let’s out an angry puff, steam practically pouring from his ears while he shouts at the top of his lungs. “LOKI!!”
The man in front of you vanishes into smoke and a loud pop sounds a couple of feet to your side.
“Right, well thanks for that snitch. I was almost free and that wasn’t a ho- Oh no. Hey come on. Do we really have to?” clink.
“You swore that you wouldn’t pull any tricks. Now you lied to me so yes. We really have to.” Both brothers look equally annoyed and right as Thor moves to turn on the power dampening collar you place a hand on top of his and shake your head.
“Something’s not right. Take it off. Now.” Looking really confused but doing as you say, Thor hands the collar to you.
Wanda makes her way over as you snap the collar together and press the button on the side and the entire thing bursts into flames. Before you cringe and toss it towards Wanda who guides the collar towards the sink and turns on the water with her powers
“Oooh. Yikes. Friday, remind Bruce to disassemble the collar and figure out what happened.” you say as Thor pats you on the shoulder “Okay then. Let’s eat!”
Everyone in the room just shrugs and nods, moving to the table to make their plate while Loki just stands still, mouth agape and in disbelief.
“So we’re just going to ignore the fact that the thing your leaders were going to force me to wear probably would’ve blown up in the my face and killed me?” Loki shouted at the room full of people who began to gather their plates.
“Yeah, pretty much” Clint says after reaching over the table and stealing a few more pieces of bacon.
“Awe, don’t worry, if someone really wanted to kill you they would be here to do the job and not leave it up to chance. Come on, let’s eat” You make eye contact with Loki as you pat him on the shoulder. When you do, a jolt of electricity runs through your veins and you instinctively flinch your arm back.
You’re about to make a joke saying that Thor is supposed to be the god of lightning when you look up and see scenes of your life literally flashing before your eyes.
There’s what almost feels like memories of you and, seemingly, Loki, Running through the forest, swimming in an enchanted lake, jumping from a cliff into the ocean, holding each other next to a fire. Then there are scenes that definitely did not come from this lifetime. Scenes of you and Loki running over hills as wolves, touring the galaxies as some alien race, colliding together as two planets. It’s almost as if the two of you were always meant to bump into each other.
Then, as if being yanked from a bungee cord, the memories play in reverse and you find yourself back in the present. The only person who seemed to notice being Wanda.
As if no time passed at all Loki says “Ouch! No need to shock me, I’m going.”
When Thor sits down, he beams and looks across the table. “Banner, good friend, could you make a new collar for my brother over there. He really shouldn’t be running away on this mission. Especially since father sent him down with me as punishment for his latest crime.”
As Bruce is about to speak, you interrupt “Oh don’t worry. Loki’s not going anywhere.”
“I’m not?” “He’s not?” the two brothers chime in.
“Of course not. How could he fall in love with me if his mind and spirit are elsewhere?” Some people look at you curiously after that statement, maybe even slightly amused, but others don’t bat an eye as prophetic talk like this isn’t out of the norm for you.
“Uh, Thor, your pet is being weird again.”
“Nonsense. It’s Y/N. That’s just how they are.”
“What’s nonsense? Because our case isn’t nonsense and that’s the reason I called you all together. So maybe we should be talking about that, yeah?” Tony says, strolling into the dining room with boxes of papers in his hands
“Come on Tony, can’t you let us eat before grueling us with work” Sam chimes in when he finally sits down after making his plate.
“Ah yes. The Avengers. So mighty and noble, but not without snack breaks of course. Whatever will- wait. Did Y/N cook today?”
“Yeah Tones, fresh off the stove, eat while it’s hot.” You reply with a smile.
“Okay. Meeting is paused while we take a quick recess and eat Y/N’s ‘big family brunch’. I almost forgot what day it is” Tony says, clapping his hands together and going to make a plate
Chuckling, you glance at the god next to you and nod your head towards the table. “Loki, right? Why don’t you go sit down next to Thor, I’ll make you a plate.” as he starts to bicker you hold a hand up and roll your eyes “I don’t care if you don’t trust midguardians OR their food OR if you say you aren’t hungry right now. Be a good boy and sit and eat with the rest of the team please.” you grin and walk towards the kitchen before he has the chance to speak.
As Loki reluctantly sits next to Thor, Wanda makes her way over to you. “Y/N, you blimped again. What was it about?” she asks you, placing a hand on your back for comfort
“Oh nothing bad this time. I can fill you in, just not right now.”
She nods at your words and stays behind to add toppings to her pancakes.
When you walk back to the table you drop Loki’s plate in front of him and sit right next to him. “Would ya scoot over a little bit for me love?” you softly ask and Loki finds himself following your words before he can even question it.
By the time his brain processes what just happens, you’re leaning over his lap to give thor an extra hair tie and asking Bucky to pass you the syrup and butter, throwing Loki a quick wink when your eyes meet again.
Uncharacteristically flustered, Loki just stares at you with bewilderment. Unable to find any words to create a snarky comment, he eventually gives up and starts to eat his food.
Although he would never say it in front of everyone, all of the food on his plate tastes practically as good as the ones back home. Sure, it wasn’t the elegant dishes served at his infamous parties, but it reminded him of Mother’s home cooked meals on warm summer evenings.
Out of habit, he begins to look around the table for something to put on the unfamiliar round, pastry-looking thing on his plate. Even though you’re in the middle of laughing while reliving a mission with Sam, you instinctively hold the container of butter right in front of Loki’s face, without even a glance in his direction.
“Oh my gods don’t remind me! I felt like Eleven from that one tv show with the way blood dripped down my nose.” you replied with a laugh as Loki hesitantly took the dish from your hands.
You laughed and talked with the team for nearly an hour more until Tony reeled everyone back in.
“Alright, alright. Thank you Y/N, your Sunday brunches are always appreciated. Now, time to address the god-sized elephant in the room. Our Asgardian… pals, have come down to monitor hotspots of some random god/mutant/power mumbo-jumbo. More details will come on a need to know basis, the basics are in these folders Peter is passing out, but right now it seems like we’re in the scouting phase, trying to take preemptive measures. Y/N, I do want you to continue your training with Wanda and Sam, energy and hotspots seem just up your alley and you still have a lot to work on before stepping back into the field. Bruce, I’ll meet you in your lab after this. Thor, Steve, and Nat, you will be our main recon team. Everyone else, continue with your normal training. Just make sure you read your folders and, remember, you are all on call for the next few weeks. Meeting adjourned, go do your shit, avenge some souls, I don’t care just get out of my face and- what Clint?”
“I’m sorry but I don’t get it. Didn’t mysteriouso over there try to take over New York? Why is he back here?”
“Yes, why am I back here dear brother?”
“Ah, of course. Well, when father sent me down to check on Midguard, he ordered Loki to come along as part of his sentence. If something with these hotspots goes wrong, he can help us and will then repay his debt to New York.” Thor says matter-of-factly before standing up and bringing his plates into the kitchen.
“Of course. Makes perfect sense” Clint says, rolling his eyes and starting to clean up too.
While everyone begins cleaning you start making your way out of the room with someone’s eyes following you. Briefly stopping, you turn your head slightly without looking over your shoulders and say “Aren’t you coming”
When you turn left down an empty corridor you hear Loki huff and finally catch up to you. “What games are you playing mortal? Do you know who you are toying with? I am a god. What makes you think you can read my mind and-“
You turn around and gently cup Loki’s cheeks with both of your hands. Completely thrown off by the gesture, he immediately goes silent. “Okay, I can tell you’re flustered.”
In protest, Loki raises his voice and begins “I’m not-“
Cutting him off again, you gently rub one of his cheeks with your thumb and look into his eyes “It’s okay. Why don’t you take a deep breath with me, yeah? In…. Hold… And out…. Thank you”
Loki looks at you with a bewildered rage as he finds himself complying to your words yet again.
Once he calms down you gently remove your hands and continue speaking “Okay, let’s walk and I’ll answer all of your questions, yeah?”
You begin to walk while Loki stays behind, still bewildered at everything that just played out, causing you to have to link arms with him so he’ll keep up. You continue to talk “Okay, come on. I’m not playing any games. I know you don’t trust people easily but I have no reason to lie to you about anything. And I don’t think I’m toying with you, but frankly I don’t know what you mean by that. I’m not trying to use you because you’re a powerful god, if that’s what you mean. I have all the power I need. I just know what I see and what I feel and what I perceive and-“ with a sigh you stop walking and look the god right in his eyes “Loki, sweetheart, would you please stop trying to read my mind? I never read yours and you’re starting to give me a headache.”
“Sorceress! You’re doing it again. Why do you keep touching me and calming me down? Is it some ploy to steal my powers? What’s your angle? Oh. I bet you’re being nice to me so we can be allys, so you can have protection in case the big bad Loki ever tries to rule Earth again. Or maybe you’re being coy, trying to seduce me so you can get close and attack me when you think I’m weakest.”
Throughout his entire rant (?) Loki kept moving towards you, trying to intimidate you into cowering backwards. You don’t budge or react to any of his outbursts until the very end when you let out a slight giggle.
Noticing this, Loki moves even closer to you, bending his head down slightly so he’s at your level with a shit eating grin plastered across his face. “Ah, so I see I’m coming close. What, were you hoping your little stolen glances and flirty behavior would have me fawning over you, allowing you to manipulate and gain control over me? Oh, I bet you think you’re so smart. And- dear Odin! Why do you keep laughing?”
Covering your face, you take a deep breath and try to stifle your laughs. Once you regain your composure you move even closer to the god in front of you and place your hands on your hips.
“Loki, my love” Glancing down to his lips then back up to his eyes, you continue, “while I’m loving all this ‘will they / when will they’ tension between us right now, if I wanted to seduce someone into a quick fuck I would just go see your brother again. And as for my behavior, I was just being kind. Sure, maybe a little flirty, I didn’t realize you were such a prude. But don’t get mad at me because you blush like a schoolgirl every time I look at you. Or because there are butterflies flying in your stomach whenever I brush against you. And please, don’t try to read my mind again, I’m getting all of this from your aura, for lack of a better term.”
Loki just blinks at you for a few seconds before standing up straight and looking out the window behind your head, mumbling “I cant believe you fucked my brother.”
“Jealous much? And please, I find it hard to believe that you’ve never fucked your best friend before. Now come on, I have something I want to show you. Like I already said, I promise I’ll answer all of your questions if you just stick it out a little bit longer.”
Not even waiting for a response, you grab Loki’s hand and continue walking down the corridor, past different halls and doorways until you reach an old fashioned, forest-green, wooden door with special knots on the outside.
With your free hand you open the door and drag Loki inside with you until it shuts behind. Once the two of you step inside, torches along the side walls light up to revel a two story library. There are shelves upon shelves filled with books, each one telling a different story with dates ranging back to pre-colonialism. On the right side of the room, there is an enchanted fireplace paired with emerald green chaise lounges right in front of it.
Against the back wall is an oval shaped cascading pool that leads to a large bay window. The view overlooks an endlessly starry night that definitely resembles no place on earth.
Littered between aisles and bookshelves are dozens of arm chairs and sofas for leisure reading. In the middle of the room is a large, dark oak table, fit for writing, working, or dining.
Finally, against the right wall is a wet bar fully equipped with drinks and snacks that never replenish.
Once he has the chance to take everything in, Loki’s energy changes to that of a kid on Christmas morning. Cautiously, he proceeds to the bookshelf on the right of the fireplace, touching each different spine while he unconsciously pulls you with him, not letting go of your hand. It isn’t until he stumbles upon an old Asgardian novel that Loki speaks.
“What is this place? Where did you get this?” Looking down at The Book of Yggdrasill in his hands you smile and shrug “It was gifted to me from… an old friend. Well, maybe closer to an heirloom? The room, that is. Whoever posses the key is able to draw the door to this room wherever they want and an enchanted library is said to pop up. As it’s been past down throughout the generations people have added new features and new collections. I haven’t seen many Asgardian books, but my guess is that was put here by one of the previous owners. Please, look around. I’ll make us a drink.”
Absentmindedly, Loki just nods along while skimming over book titles and touching the spines of nearly half the books. “Uh, Loki, God of Mischief and everything, I can’t go until you let go of my hand sweetheart.”
“Oh- oh. Right.” he says while shaking himself out of the trance and letting go of your hand.
You make your way over to the bar while Loki continues to just ogle at the place you’ve brought him to. It isn’t until you’ve just finished making drinks that Loki saunters his way back over to you.
“Here, try this” you say while sliding the glass across the bar. Loki gives you a look and you roll your eyes. “It’s not bad and it’s not poisoned. Even if it was, what earth poisons would even affect an Asgardian? Would you like me to take the first sip?”
“Oh I’m sure someone will figure out one soon enough, so just in case.” Nudging the glass back to you you roll your eyes again and swipe your tongue across the flavored rim before taking a swig and swallowing, opening your mouth to show proof.
Hesitantly, Loki takes the drink from the bar and tries a sip while you explain the contents. “A shot of bourbon and chartreuse watered down over ice with roasted peppercorn and rosemary garnish topped with a rim of rosemary infused honey. I highly doubt it’ll even get you even buzzed but the flavor seems like you.”
Loki cocks his head to the side before taking another sip and saying “Not bad.”
“Awe, you love it, how cute. Now bring that with you while we sit on one of the couches. I said I’d answer your questions and I don’t back out on my word.”
When the two of you sit down, facing eachother on different arm chairs, he’s the first one to say anything. “Why bring me here when we just met?”
“Do you want the vague & mysterious answer or the transparent one that might drive you away?”
“Dealer’s choice.”
“Okay, in part i brought you here because I knew, or at least I had a feeling, that you would need a quiet and isolated space away from the team to chill out. Also in part because I love this place and we are going to fall in love so it only seems fitting.”
“Are you being facetious? Why do you keep saying that?”
“No, I’m being genuine. We are, or at least we have the potential to be, soulmates. Mmm, wait, that sounds cringey. Twin flames? True loves? Starseeds? Different cultures have different names for it, so I suppose that doesn’t matter, but you get the picture?”
“What makes you say these things, how do you know?”
“Mmmmmm basically I get visions sometimes, and while they don’t always make sense and they aren’t always from this life, they almost always provide useful.”
“So you’re a prophet?”
“Ha! No, most definitely not. Basically I’m really sensitive to energy so sometimes I get messages from other versions of myself, and other times I know when the smoke alarm is about to go off. That’s how I knew you were trying to read my mind earlier, and how I knew you weren’t really there when you first walked in with Thor.”
“Okay so mind powers?”
“Sure, mind powers”
“Then why me? If you really believe in soulmates or whatever you said, then why don’t you have someone with similar lineage? Someone who is at least from the same planet.”
“Because it’s always been you. Loki, you’re not destined to be alone. You deserve to be loved as much as anyone else... I can show you what I saw if you’d like.”
He has no visible reaction at your words however it almost seems like his eyes glossed over for just a second before he speaks again “How do you mean?”
Standing up you walk over to Loki and kneel on the floor right in between the gods legs. “Don’t get any ideas, I can literally feel the promiscuity oozing off of you.”
“I have yet to say anything darling.”
Rolling your eyes you take Loki’s hands and place them on either side of your head with his thumbs sitting on your forehead. “Read my mind and you’ll see.”
Glancing down at you suspiciously, Loki stares into your eyes while he slowly drifts off into your subconsciousness. Meanwhile, you focus and hone in on the vision you saw earlier when the two of you first met. Eventually, one by one, the scenes begin to fly by.
No matter what time, what world, what universe the visions were in, it was always you and Loki in your truest form.

Next
A/N: okay so this is quite possibly my favorite series I've ever started, I was thinking about making it a slow burn but I'm too impatient for that, and I'm already halfway through part 2, but I'm also mentally ill so I have no idea when it'll actually get published. lmk if you want me to create a taglist & add you!

LOKI PRIDE COVER
With flags as shown: Rainbow(lgbtq+), trans, nonbinary, pan, bi and what looks to be the genderqueer flag in his hand too!
This cover alone just shows how vast Loki's queer identity really is when it comes to labels. 💚
Also this is a reminder that multi labeled queer people and characters exist and are so valid!! 💖💖💖

Title: cold embrace
Characters: Thor, Bruce Banner
Warnings: alcohol use, angst, disfunctional relationship
they/he for bruce
You would love to give them what they need and deserve, if you could. You would love to wake them up with kisses, gently hug their shoulders while they're cooking, give out a soft "what do you do with you" laugh every time they start referencing a persons words like a scientist references a colleague in a paper, hold them safe and warm. You love them. You really do. And you would like to return them everything they give you, as partners should . But your soul is a barren wasteland, your mind is your personal hell, and you don't really think about Bruce all that much in the end.. You don't wake them up with kisses – you wake up later then them, alone in bed, while they're already cooking you breakfast. And right as you wake up, you come back to that inexplicable, all-consuming sorrow, and your first thought is to drown it in alcohol so you can function and get through your day. You pass them by to get to the bridge and grab a bottle. Then you realize the world around you is so vague and automatic, that you didn't notice Bruce and didn't say good morning. Guilt pins you down to the ground right there.
You tell them good morning
and take a shot to cope.
You hear them sigh behind your back and take two more shots to get more numb, because it's about to hurt.
No scandal follows. He decides to leave his concerns about your lifestyle to himself, gives you a little hug as you return from the fridge and starts a normal morning conversation about where are you going today and how was your sleep. You don't tell him anything really personal or emotional, – you could tell him about your dream, but you're starting to forget it yourself thanks to alcohol, so there's no need to. You keep a conversation up on a 20% intensity level and have breakfast with him, until he has to leave. You sit by that table for text sixteen minutes in numb silence, before getting up and going about your day too.
You don't really have to go anywhere. You just go wherever, not to stay in the house where you keep the person you love the most tied to misery.
You find a thing to do in Sweden and don't return for a week. You're contributing to stopping evil, so they'll understand. You didn't really mean to just leave them alone, but also you think they are better off without seeing the shitshow, that your life is becoming. You want to give them more, – and you gladly would, – but that's all you have. You're sure they'll understand.
You know its just one more cut on the heart. You just really wish it wasn't.
Knowing that you've hurt them, you don't come back for even longer time, even when you're finished with your business. You go to bars, hang out with hippies, spend an evening with a homeless woman taking care of her child and watching the stars when they're all asleep. You don't want to come back to Bruce, until you have something but your worthless state to show them. You don't answer messages or calls. 
And when you finally come back, nothing is better. Because why would it suddenly be? 
You come home, and it's empty. He's not there. He wasn't waiting for you patiently in suffering, he has a life.
You painfully, slowly exhale, looking all over the house, touching the desk surface, not even dusty yet. It's good, that he didn't wait even this short of a time.
Jane waited for so much longer.
You don't want to ruin one more life like that.
This day, you clean and tidy up all the house, finish all the alcohol left and black out in sleep for next twelve hours. Next day, you finally call them, not really hoping for forgiveness you know you didn't deserve. You won't explain yourself. You can't explain what tortures you, though you know they notice, and you know they'd help. You can only apologize and say you won't leave them alone like that.
They have the mercy to hear you out and forgive you again, saying it didn't hurt all that much. They tell you they're busy, but you can meet next time in the end of the week. They end the call like they always do – saying they love you and they would like to help, if they can. 
You only answer with "I love you too", as you always do. Your misery doesn't love company. Your misery wishes you could never let it show and never burn it with a light of day.
This is far from the first time it happens.
Far from the last time, too.
///
You really, really, really want to get through to him. More than anything at this point. You call him, already knowing he won't pick up, and tell him everything you want him to know, hoping he will at least open it on voicemail. Sometimes you get mad in the empty calls, but you quit them the second you start screaming, because if he does open voicemail – he doesn't want that there. So you just scream at no one at the half-empty halls. Thor left you without a warning so he could suffer alone, – again, – and really, Jane Foster's story and all the previous times could have prepared you for this. But also – nothing can prepare you for this. One day you just come home, and he doesn't. And doesn't the next day. And the day after that. Doesn't answer messages or calls. Then you read news about his help with an ecologic catastrophe somewhere in Norway. Or a protest in Poland. Or a crime spree in Sweden.
You really, really, really want to get through to him. But he doesn't even want to listen.
When it's over and Thor comes to meet you, his state seems to have only changed for the worse. You know it the second you see their dead eyes and hear a voice hoarser than before, when he was drinking once or twice a week. That amount probably changed in Sweden, didn't it? You don't make a scandal out of it, never do, but it pains you to see him do this to himself.
What's happening? I can see a sorrow ripping you to shreds, what is it? I really want to know, at least know, what you're dealing with. Don't run away. You can trust me. I can prove it again.
He doesn't answer, as if he didn't hear you. He stands there in silence for a while. Then he sighs deeply and tells you he was really not feeling well that week he ran away, but he's kind of better after a good distraction. He apologizes for leaving you again and says he wants to start over.
You're not sure, what that means, but then he kisses you on the mouth. You're not sure, how you feel. On one hand, shocked, like he punched you in the gut. On the other hand, carried away by the tenderness you longed for before you where with him, that he finally gave you, that he gives you again, and it's almost painful, but– there appears to be a third hand. And on this one, you know it shouldn't distract you. He's trying to sell himself away as the "perfect husband", whose depression and life problems you won't notice, if he gives you "what you want". You give him back the affection, you don't push him away, but you don't let the kiss linger on your lips, when it's broken. It's painful, you almost shake from how much you wanted this, but you need to talk.
For almost all of the time, he looks away somewhere. You know you shouldn't press him anymore. Shouldn't bring it up on the nose and beg him for a confession. You just keep being with him, have smaller conversations about less important things, and, well, he's holding it together. You almost get to see him smile. This smile is insanely tired, but you love it, when the corners of his lips go up for even a while. You take a long walk along the beach and for a night you go home, where you live together with him. And you- you almost shudder when he hugs you from the back in bed. It's been so long, since you were closer than 5 centimeters. It's really been a while, since you've been warm.
You can't tell for sure what exactly happened, but you know he's had a thought about your shudder, because he broke the hug after and just layed a warm hand on your shoulder.
You want to get through to him. In a way, you want to really just have a stable picture to believe in. It doesn't have to be him being fine, – just not lying to you. It doesn't have to be him not having problems – just you dealing with them together. But with the way he acts, you're really starting to doubt it that was ever possible. Is it foolish of you? Are you asking for something you can't get? Or do you have to do more to get it?
You don't want to fall asleep, so that waking up in the morning will be somewhat in your control.
You don't want to fall asleep, don't want to lose his warm hand.
After two hours of laying like that, you eventually black out to an empty dream.

With only a drop of flare, one can light the night sky with fireworks . . . or burn a building to the ground — and seventeen-year-old Ingrid Ellis wants her fair share.
Ingrid doesn’t have a family fortune, monetary or magical, but at least she has a plan: Rise to the top on the arm of Linden Holt, heir to a hefty political legacy and the largest fortune of flare in all of Candesce. Her only obstacle is Linden’s father who refuses to acknowledge her.
So when Senator Holt announces his run for president, Ingrid uses the situation to her advantage. She strikes a deal to spy on the senator’s opposition in exchange for his approval and the status she so desperately craves. But the longer Ingrid wears two masks, the more she questions where her true allegiances lie.
Will she stand with the Holts, or will she forge her own path?

Queer Marvel Head canons
In celebration of Pride Month these are all the marvel characters I head canon as queer! 
Steve Rogers: Gay
Thor: Bi (this mans sexuality is scientist) 
Bruce Banner: Gay trans man
Natasha Romanoff: bi-demiromantic asexual 
Clint Barton: aroace trans man (marvel missed an amazing pun by not making him aroace) 
Peter Parker: Panromantic asexual trans man
Carol Danvers: Lesbian
MJ: Bi
Loki: Pan genderfluid (the Russos robbed us!) 
Bucky Barnes: Gay
Shuri: Lesbian
Valkyrie: bi
Peggy Carter: Bi
Matt Murdock: Bi
Foggy Nelson: Bi nonbinary (seriously what cis person names themself Foggy)
Karen Page: bi transwoman 
These are just a few. Honestly I have decided that every marvel character (with the exception of like 2) are queer because I can. These are just my personal head canons if you don’t agree thats fine.

Tarnished Are The Stars Review
Tarnished Are The Stars by Rosiee Thor
CW: Violence, Murder, Parent Death, Manipulation, Oppression, Disease, Child Death, Arranged Marriage, Assault, Description of Surgery, Parental Abuse, Ableism, Classism, Sexism
3.5/5
Tarnished Are The Stars was Rosiee Thor's debut novel from 2019. This book has been praised for its representation of W-L-W romance and including an asexual/aromantic P.O.V. character. In the time between this novel and Fire Becomes Her (2022), the first book of Thor's that I read, I can see that the author has greatly improved in their writing skills. That being said, I still quite enjoyed the story and I'm glad I took the time to read it.
On the planet of Earth Adjacent, people are suffering from heart disease. The only solution for the infected is a mechanical heart. Unfortunately, technology has been banned on the planet, forcing those affected into hiding. Anna is good at mechanics, but she is also reckless. She sneaks into the settlement to help those that might need her skills. One such client is Nathaniel, son of the Commissioner. He's the only one in the settlement with tech for a heart, and neither of them is quite sure why. Nathaniel wants to impress his father by dealing with Anna as an outlaw, but that proves difficult. Things are thrown into further confusion when the Queen, who has been living a lavish life in a spaceship near the planet, sends her spy into the mix. That is Eliza, a loyalist to the Queen and politically obligated to marry Nathaniel. Anna, Eliza, and Nathaniel, despite all odds, will have to figure out what the future holds for them.
One of the things that this book does very well is avert the love triangle trope. Yes, there are three main characters of a similar age. Yes, one is of a different gender while the other two are of the same. Thor refused to take it there, though. Nathaniel and Eliza were picked for each other, but Nathaniel has never felt romantic nor sexual attraction for anyone. Eliza has exclusively felt such attraction for her own gender. Anna and Eliza meet at an inconvenient and unexpected moment, but they are still drawn to each other immediately. As a reader, the love story of this book was made better by witnessing Nathaniel witnessing it. He could tell how they felt before either of the women could. Ultimately, Eliza and Anna could have a chance at love without hurting Nathaniel.
The lore of the story was built quite well! I would use the phrase "world building", but I don't think everything that entails was particularly successful. The political backstory was exciting, realistic, and easy to follow. The cultural effects of leaving Earth and long since finding a new home were evident and made sense. I also appreciated the cultural divides from space-dwellers, those in the settlement, and those in hiding. It had the right balance of transitioning from a singular culture to working at new ones for a while. The problem falls in making the current world clear to the reader: I had trouble imagining how large the planet was, what it might look like, the ratio of people between each aforementioned group, etc. This is unlike in Fire Becomes Her, which provided clear and vivid descriptions of its physical and social setting. Thor has certainly improved on world building in those 3 years!
Thor has also improved on pacing since. Tarnished Are The Stars felt completely rushed. Everything happens in a matter of weeks when months would have worked better. The story needed time to breathe whilst building tension. The Queen had suggested to Eliza that her mission on Earth Adjacent would take months. I do like things not going as expected for characters in a story, but if the cost is realism, I don't want it. There is even a moment when Eliza moves a deadline sooner, which felt unnecessary. I believe the pacing is what most of the negative critiques have to point out. Having read this after a later book of the same author, I know it won't turn me away from them. They have already improved and will continue to do so!
If you want good queer rep in a space/sci-fi novel, Tarnished Are The Stars is a worthy choice! It's not perfect, but it will likely make you feel validated or at least leave you attached to the characters. There are twists to leave you guessing and misunderstandings to draw you in. If you end up liking it, Fire Becomes Her will be there waiting for you after!
