did u once say u were swriting a skrull thor tr au fic or did i imagine that
hey nonny! not your imagination. i did say that, and now that LMD is finally finished I'll be able to start really working on it again. in fact i was sitting in doctor's office with no pants on the other day and suddenly had a bolt of inspiration for a thing i needed to figure out for it, so things are in fact actively happening with it!
(the lack of pants is not really related to the nature of the inspiration but i did think it was amusing timing)
that said, i don't like to start posting until i have a fic at least mostly written, and with what i've already plotted and written i'm guessing it's probably gonna be a long and involved one, so it may still be a while before it's ready for other eyes.
but with that caveat, to whet your appetite, what i'm excited about with it is that... when i sat down to plot it, i was really struck by how much good material there was that Marvel simply left unused in the IW/EG movies, and that really all it needs is to be written by someone who actually cares about the characters, for people who have actually been paying attention. and i was also struck by just how many problems it would fix on the characterization front if the real Thor had been abducted sometime after AoU and replaced with a deep-cover skrull.
(spoilers below)
so that's where it starts, basically: with Loki, during TR, shocked and horrified by this change in his brother but believing that Thor has really just changed enough to happily abandon him twitching in pain on an alien planet. But instead of Loki sticking around on the ship to get killed by Thanos, he decides fuck that shit and bails. Ends up in a grungy bar on some backwater planet, nursing his emotional wounds.
Elsewhere, the real Thor has just spent a long while imprisoned in a dark cell by some unknown enemy that he encountered while on the search for the infinity stones after his visions in the Norn pool on earth, and when at last he gets free he finds himself on a ship in deep space. Steals an escape pod and manages to get away, to end up... in a grungy bar on some backwater planet. And that guy at the other end of the bar looks oddly like his brother... his dead brother, who he last saw speared through and bleeding out on Svartalfheim. Cue all the drama, distrust, and confusion and then them finally figuring out what happened.
So ultimately the two of them have to both go after the skrull impersonating Thor on the Statesman and stop Thanos from getting all the infinity stones, all while they sort out what went wrong with their relationship and whether there's any way to fix it.
(I'm really looking forward to working on it more, because it'll let me both fix TR/IW/EG and write some really fucked-up shit, and I have been craving writing some fucked-up shit.)

And if I said that even though the fat jokes in Endgame were cheap and lazy writing it was actually kinda Real because there will always be people who react to physical manifestations of mental illness in that way. But Thor got through it anyway. And he was still worthy. And I take a little comfort in the fact that none of the OG 6 made fun of him. They were all genuinely worried. Most everyone was genuinely worried. What if I said that? People are always gonna be mean but you can be ok anyway.

Another fancy double page masterpiece. A recap of everything in the past 7 issues, pretty much. As we approach the dramatic finale of the Kree-Skrull war. (Avengers #97):

What i inteded to be working on: figuring out how thanos dies in my MCU rewrite
What i'm actually working on: Loki says Asgardians live about 5,000 years and we know Thor was born around 930 CE, and Buri being the first Asgardian seems to be MCU canon as well as comics canon, and Thor at 1000 seems to be about the age when people are expecting him to get married but probably not yet at the age when everyone asks him if he's got kids yet, so assuming about 1,500 years per generation, when was Asgard founded?
I can't believe I thought the problems in maths textbooks would never come in useful...

E15: "459"
This is an interesting episode to watch because it's the introduction of Carol Danvers to the EMHU. And it's different from the comics canon (which is super complicated and involves a Kree wishing machine) but also pretty different from the MCU origin in Captain Marvel.
Here Carol is introduced as Janet's friend. I don't know how they met but I am DYING to know. Jan is a socialite in this series and Carol is a major in the military. I guess they could've bumped into each other in NYC. Is Carol the person she complains about Hank to? I bet she is.
Because Carol immediately burns Hank by saying hot hot Tony (and suggesting he'd be a good match for Jan). But actually Carol needs Hank's help with something.
Carol introduces the Ant-man and Wasp to "Dr. Philip Lawson." This is an odd change because Mar-vell, the Kree hero who was the first Captain Marvel went by the human alias Walter Lawson in the comics. It was changed to Wendy Lawson (Annette Benning) in the film Captain Marvel. Philip Lawson is less often used (I associate Philip with the variant Mahr-vehl from the Ultimates universe/1610). But I guess none of these human names are his real name.
The "twist" to make Mar-vell a female character in Captain Marvel was new for the MCU. (Although I don't know why we are imposing a gender binary on non-human races.)
Whatever gender Mar-vell is, Jan thinks they are hot. Hank is annoyed.
Anyway, something alien crashes to Earth. Both Carol and Jan want to fight whatever it is. Like girls do. There is some fighting in the woods.
It's a giant robot (the titular "459"). Hank wants to talk to it or whatever and normally I would not roll my eyes at such a thing. But it's clearly an instrument of war, and it's shooting lasers at his girlfriend, so like, catch up, genius.
You guys aren't going to believe this, but Lawson turns out to be an alien. I know, shocking. He and Carol get hit by some kind of beam from the robot (she was protecting him) and he turns back to his regular Kree form. He announces himself as Mahr-vehl. Closed captioning confirms the spelling. So he is the Ultimates version. Weird.
They bring Carol to the hospital and call the other Avengers. Mahr-vehl explains himself. This is the first name drop of the Kree-Skrull war which isn't actually relevant until next season, because this robot was sent by the Kree. To destroy Earth. Why didn't you tell them humans already had dibs on this planet, Mahr? Huh? Not a very good scout.
He explains the if the robot encounters resistance, it just blows up the entire planet. Jan actually says, "Hulk, smash him." And I'm kind of on her side here. But Hank stops the smashing (killjoy).
Marvel (I'm not typing all the dumb letters anymore) says he's just here to study humanity and he keeps lookin' at Carol in her bed. It's implied he loves Carol so much he decides humanity should be saved. I am creeped out by this.
He's been lying to her for three years studying Carol? If he cares about her so much maybe he should have a conversation with her? Maybe "psst, I'm an alien?" I think he's a weird, gross creeper and want him smashed.
Hank and Marvel are bros now, I guess. The Avengers (Hank, Jan, Hulk, Thor and Tony) plus Marvel go fight the robot/bomb.
Marvel is wearing a look more like his Ultimates gear (Kree war suit with helmet). He's not the traditional blond-haired, red spandex Captain Marvel. He also has a green glow around him and keeps making constructs out of his nanotech. It reminds me a lot of how Green Lantern looks in cartoons. I can't unsee it.
Jan and Hank fight and also get hit by explosives. Hank tries to protect Jan and takes a blast. He says "I love..." but then urges her to stop the bomb. If you had more words you could've finished that sentence, my dude. You just didn't want to.
There is a cool sequence where Jan flies at the robot, and gets inside but she doesn't actually get to save the day. (Even though getting very small would be a useful power for diffusing a bomb, I think.) Out of nowhere there is a giant floating head of Yon-rogg that Marvel talks to. This is also weird and unnecessary setting up of intra-Kree fighting that the show will never get to since it was cancelled after its second season.
So Marvel takes the bomb and flies into space with it, but he ices up which is weird because he should be able to space travel. Like, he's from another planet. Tony saves him (Tony can totally fly into space, guys, but the alien cant?) And Thor manages to throw the bomb far enough away from Earth when it explodes. That was a shitty plan, Marv.
Jan and Marvel make up before he teleports out of there, a power I did not know he had. Hank fails again to say "I love you" to Jan. And the episode ends with a glowing Carol being able to fly.
But none of this will matter until next season, when there is more space stuff and Carol joins the team. I think this was a way to say "there are going to be more than one lady Avenger!!" without, you know, actually having more than one lady Avenger on the team. However, with so much the setup already this season, I feel like this episode would've been better next season.
So that's the story of how Carol Danvers got superpowers and ditched her stalker in one go.
Rating: Eh, if you're interested.

Avengers #133 (Englehart/Buscema, Mar 1975). The Vision and Mantis explore their origins in the history of the Marvel Universe. The synthezoid’s journey takes him back to Marvel Comics #1 in 1939, where the original Human Torch sparks some generational trauma. Meanwhile, the potential Celestial Madonna’s tale goes more cosmic, delving into the eternal conflict between the Kree and Skrull empires. In a cool detail, we learn how the Watcher’s lunar city was built.
