Nikola "Nik" Smith

Morty: Ow! Ow! You're tugging on me too hard! I am still tired." Nikola:" It can't be that bad, and you slept enough, I say." Rick: We gotta go; we gotta get out of here; come on. I have a surprise for you two.

[The scene cuts to Rick's ship.]

Rick:(Rick drives through the night sky.) What do you think of this... flying vehicle, you Both? I built it out of stuff I found in the garage. And yes, Nikola, I left you notes on how to make your own one. And now stop trying to touch the Buttons! Morty: Yeah, Rick... I-it's great. Is this the surprise? Rick: Morty. I had to... I had to do it. I had—I had to—I had to make a bomb, Morty. I had to create a bomb. Morty: What?! A bomb?!

Rick: We're going to drop it down there. Just get a whole fresh start. Create a whole fresh start.

Nikola. "Wow, that is cool! How does it work? GRANDPA! Grandpa! Don't fall Asleep!" Morty:" NO! Nikola, shut it down and do not try to disassemble the bomb! We have school tomorrow. Just Defuse the bomb" Nikola:" Boring!" Rick had fallen asleep while the ship slowly drifted from the sky to the ground. Even without someone driving it.

Nikola. "Ah, here my blueprints for the Dad Safe Car idea did go."

Nikola built it as an idea with Rick as a Car safety feature for his parents—more for Jerry than Beth. Nikola was skeptical of car airbags. That slow magnet field means that the car can't crash but just slowly pushes away the other car.

+ Like you can't hit something with the Nikola Safety Car as it's like +Magnet is hitting +Magnet. Crash doesn't work in general.

Morty:" Please stop the bomb, for once I am sure I can Ace the test after you helped me and Summer for school." Let's say what you want. Morty is kind of happy his baby brother is part of his class in school.

+ Our Rick shows of the other Ricks yes Nikola Tesla father of modern technology was reborn as his Grandson!!

Wrong Order

Nora was excited. No, she was more than excited! She was so excited that the word excited seemed boring to her. She needed to make up a new word to even begin to describe her excitement!

Yup, she was feeling extradupladumple today because her new glitter grenades were coming in! Custom ordered straight from Atlas itself! Atlas always made the best stuff!

She skipped to her locker in the mail room and found the pink slip inside, waiting for her to collect and use it! She practically jumped at the mail clerk, holding out her ticket. He mumbled something, then retreated to the back to retrieve her goods.

As she waited, she looked at the different posters on the wall. Mostly boring stuff were put up, like "Don't mail bombs!" and "Grimm are not an acceptable carrier!" and other warnings that they were required to put up after Nora had her brilliant ideas. One poster read, "Verify your package before you open!" Wouldn't that be crazy, getting someone else's grenades by mistake?

The clerk returned with her order in hands, and had her sign a waiver, explaining this was dangerous material, and that the mail service was not liable to lawsuit for any injury made by Nora. Specifically Nora.

Nora then took her package and skipped away with glee. Her mind, heart, and soul were brimming with extradupladumplement at her new sparkly weapons of glittery, shiny destruction.

"I'm back~!" Nora sang, her door sliding open to her dorm. "And I got my grenades~!"

"Then why would you bring them here?" Jaune, her team leader, asked with concern.

"Because I wanted to show you guys my fun new toys before I tested them out!"

"They're weapons, Nora, not toys" Ren, her partner, pointed out, "and if you wanted us to see them, you have invited us to the training room."

"Yeah, but you guys always have something going on." Nora pried open the crate. "Either your crushes come by, or your super diet drink is culturing, or your crush wants to make plans for later tonight..."

"What?" Jaune raised his brow.

"What?" Ren joined.

"What?!" Pyrrha, her fellow lady member, almost shrieked at her words. As if it wasn't obvious what she was talking about.

"There! Come to Mama!" Nora pulled out a grenade and... was disappointed by how bland it looked. It was pink, sure, but it didn't sparkle and shine like the ad showed. The only fun thing about it was how it looked more like one of those spiked fruits. This was not extradupladumple. It wasn't even exciting.

"Everything okay, Nora?" Jaune asked.

"I think I got ripped off." Nora groused. "I spent good lien on Atlas grenades, and this is what I get? It looks nothing like the ad!"

"What ad?" Ren asked.

"Here, I'll show you." Nora tossed the grenade behind her as she reached for her scroll. Screams of distress filled the room as Nora began searching on her scroll. "I found it!" Nora turned to show off her find, but was surprised by what she saw.

Standing in front of the door was a thick cloud of pink smoke. As it fell, a complete stranger stood inside the room. Noticably, Jaune was missing, and he was right where their leader was standing before. He looked older, much too old to be a student, with thick, dirty blond hair, tied back in a really short ponytail. His muscular chin was covered in thick stubble, framing his familiar nose and tired, bagged eyes.

"Oh, it's you guys again." The stranger said, giving a soft smile. He made his way through the room, walking as if lost in a daze. He sat on a bed, and the frame creaked under his weight, likely due to the heavy, scratched armor he wore. "This place feels so unreal, just like all of you. I think I might start crying."

"Uh, excuse me, sir." Pyrrha cautiously stepped forward. "Um, who are you?"

"Oh, right." The man cleared his throat into his fist, worn gloves faded by time in the sun. "My name is Jaune Arc, short, sweet, and it rolled of the tongue. The ladies used to love it."

"Nora," Ren asked, "what was in these grenades?"

"So, uh, I think I know what happened." Nora answered. "I think I got the wrong package."

"Oh, Nora." Ren rubbed his eyes.

"It's not my fault!" Nora defended. "I thought Giannini was a company it came from, not the person it was supposed to go to!"

Not wanting to be any woman's possession or a tool of the crooked system, Akira takes it upon himself to work through each of the ladies and see what makes them the way they are for good or even for evil.

Kio and Doujin have to match wits and sword with Sickle to protect Earth, Arcadia and their inhabitants from the latter and all her beasts.

8) Recalling A Higher Ideal - In this alternate history epic drama for adult audiences, it is not Japan that joins the Axis Powers of World War II. Instead, the Axis consists of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Imperialist China. With their own sovereignty threatened by Yuan Shikai the Emperor of China, the Japanese imperial princess beseeches her father to renegotiate and or build trade and military alliances with Taiwan, the Southeast Asian countries and the Korean Republic to stand strong against Chinese aggression in the Pacific. In doing so, a Pan-Pacific Alliance is formed and its military fully integrated on gender and racial lines in order to stand tall. As an anthology, we follow the tests the Imperial Japanese Military must undergo if they are to be strong enough to protect and nurture the ideals they fight for even as they join the Allies of America, Great Britain, France and the Soviet Union in battling the forces of tyranny.

9) The Cradles of Civilization - Inspired by disaster films such as The Poseidon Adventure or The Towering Inferno; this riveting disaster thriller for seinen and josei audiences follows the graduating class of a Japanese public high school aboard a vast solid Dyson Sphere built long in the past by Earth colonists around the white dwarf Beta Sirius. But with their star Sirius B now weakening and ready to implode and possibly destroy the Sirius Dyson Sphere, every last student of Yggdrasil Public High School has to gather the survivors of humanity in order for a last-ditch escape into space to begin. Various challenges include profiteering companies now working to undermine relief efforts for their own gain, military and civilians unprepared for a bevy of calamities, and the collapsing Dyson Sphere's natural disasters. Not every soul will be able to escape, but the students of Yggdrasil will try to save the cradles of human civilization.

10) Super Surfboard Cross - In this action-packed yet humorous josei/seinen sports story; as a result of global climate chaos, the World Surfing League (WSL) is established and makes its ultimate move to make the first ever surfboard cross racing events which get the attention of naturalists, scientists and engineers alike to create a sporting experience that will outdo the World Series of Major League Baseball and the Super Bowl of the National Football League in enthusiasm. We follow a group of competitive surfers from all walks of life as they take part in the first World Circuit of Super Surfboard Cross as they all race on many islands in surfing downhill across carefully constructed courses laden with water-bound rails, berms and jumps to perform nigh-improbable tricks and compete for the gold, silver and bronze. But can they come together to foil a psychotic team of corrupt fixers who have their eyes on the victories?

11) God Mars Re: 2999 - In this reboot of the shonen mecha drama from 1981, humanity is part of a galactic civilization in the year 2999. But young Takeru Myoujin AKA. Mars and his few friends discover the former was meant to destroy the Earth that adopted him on orders from the evil Emperor Zuul of the planet Gishin if Zuul is to conquer space. Hoping to stop the evil planet Gishin as well as to save his own life, Takeru and his friends must join the Earth Defense Forces to combine Earth and Gishin technologies to combat the Zuul invasion forces. Whenever Earth is in danger, Takeru (pilot of the robot Gaia) is able to summon the five other secretly created units to combine with Gaia to assemble the titular Six-God Combination God Mars. The five other robots are Sphinx (piloted by Namida Akagi), Uranus (piloted by Naoto Ijuin), Titan (piloted by Rose), Shin (piloted by Mika Hyuuga) and Ra (piloted by Akira Kiso).

12) Song of the Amazons - In this eclectic (both in demographics and genres) story, college-age girls Ayame, Ikumi, Umeko, Erika and Ompu by day form the pop rock band the Amazons wowing swooning fans with power anthems and love ballads to challenge a cutthroat world in which youth and virginity are commodified. By night, however, the Amazons use the magical energy they gained from their audience's enthusiasm as well as five colored diamond rings to generate powered armor out of thin air and become the Amazon Claymores. As the Amazon Claymores, they ride through the mean streets of Tokyo to battle a most fiendish assortment of criminals and monsters with limited assistance from the police. Their battles also can be of a psychological from trying to avoid fame making them entitled and snobby brats by day and by night trying to avoid turning into the absolute monsters threatening all the five fight for.

13) Promise You Won't Forget Me - This dark josei/seinen story opens with the shocking and heartbreaking suicide of one Zenjin Mushou, the classmate and crush of Ichiko Yumori. In her search for answers, Ichiko turns to all the social media presences and materials Zenjin left for her over the 7 CDs he recorded telling why he killed himself including a spherical die through which she is able to venture into the digital worlds and back. Meeting with Zenjin's few online friends and completing the quests he left unfinished, Ichiko pieces together the main reasons for and inciting events leading up to his suicide and the deaths of his social media presences before he could rebuild himself. Both online and in the real world, Ichiko unravels the cultures of abuse, intolerance, assault, and pain that broke her boyfriend's heart. With her friends also getting involved and wanting revenge, Ichiko must remember Zenjin and save someone else.

"Gwyn isn't important enough to get a book" "Gwyn isn't Azriel's mate" "Gwyn went back to the library her story is over" "Gwyn was just a side character to Nesta's story" Oh you mean Gwyneth Berdara, who is only one of 8 people who ever completed the Blood Rite? Gwyneth Berdara, who is now set up as a Carynthian? The same warrior status as Azriel? Gwyneth "See you tomorrow, Shadowsinger" Berdara. Gwyneth Berdara, who was the first to become a reborn again Valkyrie. Gwyneth Berdara, who wanted to wipe the smirk off their faces, specifically Azriel's. Gwyneth Berdara, whose story retconned ACOMAF, where Sarah rewrote the story so that it was AZRIEL who saved her from Hybern's soldiers. Gwyneth Berdara, whose voice made Azriel's shadows dance not once, but twice. Gwyneth Berdara, who went back to the library and Nesta thought to herself that it would be a shame for her to stay there forever. Gwyneth Berdara, who shows actual traits of being a spy. Gwyneth Berdara, who said our stories are worth telling. Gwyneth Berdara, who made Azriel's chest spark at the thought of her smiling. Gwyneth Berdara, who after the Blood Rite was taken to the River House where Gwyn says, "I think it took us where we were needed most." Gwyneth Berdara, whose paternal lineage is a mystery. Gwyneth Berdara, who made the world shift as she cut the ribbon? Gwyneth Berdara, who had Azriel watching HER with admiration and quiet encouragement Gwyneth Berdara, who made Azriel's shadows sing in answer to her own? Gwyneth Berdara, who is taking private dagger lessons with Azriel? Gwyneth Berdara, whose interactions with Azriel could've either never happened or happened with someone else. Gwyneth Berdara, who made Azriel the new ribbon. Gwyneth Berdara, who reached out her hand to Azriel. And that's what you missed on GLEE Oh and Yrene Towers is on the phone asking to speak with whoever says side characters can't get their happy ending.

Gwyn is an absolutely adorable, lovely, awesome and strong person. A badass, first reborn valkyrie. A priestess of the Mother. A carynthian. A descendant of water nymphs. A breathtaking singer. A beautiful woman.

Competitive Advantage [Avenger!Loki x Fem. Reader x Thor] 18+

A link to my Masterlist is HERE  Summary: In the Avengers compound, Thor has turned his sights on you as his next conquest - but little does he know his brother harbours much a much deeper obsession. (w/c 4.5k) Warnings: 18+, minors please DNI! Language. Coercive behaviour. Smut. Thor is a bit of an arse. 

‘All I’ll say is that for a Mid-Guardian woman she is...enticing’

‘for a Mid-Guardian woman??’ Thor brought his fingers to his forehead in a frustrated crest, ‘brother I have travelled all nine realms and bedded many maidens and I can tell you, with Borr as my witness, that is the finest piece of arse I have laid eyes on north of Muspelheim…’ 

Loki brought his towel to his face, wiping away ribbons of sweat that fell from his forehead as his brother kept talking. A little too loudly, as usual.

The gym at the Avengers compound was busy this morning. Clattering of knives and batons could be heard sharply over the smack of limbs as heroes and agents sparred together. He and Thor sat on a bench at the side of the arena, arms reddened with combat each resting on their knees as they caught their breath. Well..as Loki caught his breath.

‘...I mean really, brother, how can you look at her and not want to ride her into battle like a valiant steed? Norns, have you seen her fight? She is a Valkyrie reborn. Perhaps she is...it would explain a lot. Her arse, for one thing-’

‘Would you shut up about her arse?’, Loki snapped, rolling his eyes. It was embarrassing really, how crude he could be.

Loki raised his gaze as his brother, blessedly, closed his mouth for two seconds.

There you were, strong legs straddled around Clint Barton as you pinned him to the ground – his knife out of reach, defenceless under your tight control. Loki shivered. His eyes roamed your body as you elevated yourself from the man below, the curve of your legs and the toned muscles which pressed against your leggings as you rose threatened a groan from his throat as he swam in the stolen voyeurism where he could worship you safely. You pressed your fists to Clint in post-spar tradition, your bare midriff glistening with sweat...how he wanted to lick it off from your navel all the way up to your perfect brea-

‘...Brother.’

‘What?’ Loki turned to Thor, eyes blazing, his question delivered with a low tone of menace that threatened to betray the lust simmering below.

‘I was asking if you wanted to go another round, but I suspect that there may be another partner you have in mind now…’, his meaty elbow nudged Loki’s ribs with the subtlety of a bulldozer.

‘Don’t be absurd. You’re the one that’s obsessed with her arse’.

‘Indeed, brother. Although I am obsessed with a lot more than her arse. Her INCREDIBLE bosom for examp-’

In a flash, Loki’s forearm was at Thor’s throat, pinning him against the wall as he choked on his words beneath him, his eyes burning into the squirming god caught off guard.

‘Guys, no family drama in the gym...come on’, you said loudly as you sauntered over to pick up your water bottle, the scene unfolding before you, ‘take it outside, or to Asgard...not here please’.

You looked on, pleased with yourself, as the dark-haired god released his brother. Thor looked to you with jovial amusement as he rubbed his neck, his gaze drawing up and down your body, a wicked promise in his eyes which remained behind his lips.

‘How are you today, Agent Y/N?’  Loki said calmly, his demeanour a stark contrast from only moments ago as he had his brother in a vice which would have killed an ordinary man.

‘I’m well, thank you’, you replied warmly. The Asgardian duo had always remained on an outside circle to you, where you only observed them from afar. Social interactions were taken in snatches where you could, for one of them in particular whose attention you craved though you would never betray it. You turned with a small wave as you made your way back over to Clint, who would definitely be taking no prisoners for round two, feeling the weight of the gaze of a pair of eyes over your body like the musk of sweat in the air. You hoped it was him.

‘I think it’s high time we had some new sport, what say you Loki?’, Thor turned to his brother as he said it, looping his long hair behind his ear revealing a devilish smile.

‘Go on?’

‘Well, it seems increasingly obvious to me that we both have our interests set on Agent Y/N, so why don’t we make it a little more interesting. What say you?’

‘Brother, you still haven’t actually said anything’, Loki rolled his eyes defiantly as his stomach churned.

‘A competition!’, he exclaimed cheerfully, ‘the first one to bed her, wins’.

‘Don’t be absurd.’

Thor’s laugh echoed around the gym as Loki began packing his weapons into a kit bag.

‘You’re right Loki, it is absurd. How could you triumph in such a contest when I have the clear competitive advantage…’

Loki’s hands stilled as he processed the jibe, every pulse of blood warning him not to rise to it and yet thrusting him on, ‘competitive advantage?’ he sneered, ‘please tell me you’re not talking about your reputation for jackhammering across the nine realms, collecting the riddled notches on your bedpost’.

A thick hand landed on Loki’s shoulder as he focused his attention on fastening the bag zipper, hoping Thor would simply disappear.

‘No brother, although I’m sure she is aware of my legendary status as a lover. No, I am referring to the fact that I am worthy’, he paused...waiting for a reaction, ‘for surely if I am worthy to lift Mjölnir then I am worthy to lift her legs around my waist’,

Loki’s head whipped round to meet his brother’s eyes, the mirth in Thor’s met with steel malice as he considered the proposition.

‘Fine’, Loki spat as he stood abruptly. He looked up at where you circled Clint, your fists raised, your hair coming undone from the morning’s efforts, your eyes focused on your target as your mind searched keenly for his weakest point, ‘consider your challenge accepted’.

_____

 The early afternoon sun blared through the glass in the empty compound kitchens as you counted spoons of protein powder that fell lacklustre into your sport bottle. Four, Five, Six

‘Thirsty, are we?’

You jumped, as the voice announced it’s owner behind you. You didn’t even have to look.

‘Hi Thor,’ you smiled as you spun the top on the bottle, ‘twice in one day, lucky me…’

‘Indeed, sweet Y/N. Lucky indeed. My, you do look ravishing today,’ you heard him inhale theatrically, ‘and pray what is that heavenly scent you’re wearing?’

You turned, taking in the bemusing sight before you as you stifled a laugh. He was leaning awkwardly against the refrigerator, his bulging arms crossed (was he flexing?) against the naked expanse of his chest, puffed out as he smirked. A pair of loose grey shorts hung low from his bare hips, revealing his taunt angular muscles as he looked at you keenly, awaiting your response.

‘I um...I haven’t actually showered yet since earlier so…’

‘Ah! Your natural scent, then. How delectable. My my, I can only imagine how good you must smell once you are well and truly dirty…’ his voice lowered as he stared you down, and you suddenly felt very underdressed...or overdressed...for whatever this was.

‘So what’s happening lately with the A-team?’, you cleared your throat, ‘have you guys got any big missions planned that you can tell me about?’ you began shaking your water bottle in your palm, dispersing the protein powder like you wanted to disperse with this conversation.

Silence rolled around you in the empty kitchen as you politely awaited his reply, realising far too late the association he was making with your provocative hand movements to what was tucked within those revealing shorts.

‘Agent Y/N, I must tell you something, ’ he strode across the kitchen, leaning one enormous, muscled arm against the cupboard over your head before you had a chance to think.

‘…I am...consumed...with thoughts of you. Your mortal body. Underneath my godly body. A union fit for the cosmos. Your perishable curves have pushed me to the edge of desire. We should be lovers. Allies...in fucking. Would you like that?’, a thin smile graced the corner of his mouth as his eyes bore down into you, willing you to concede. You couldn’t contain yourself.

Your hand shot up to your mouth as you began to laugh, the ridiculousness of the situation falling like a satellite from the sky. Confused, Thor took several steps back from you, checking behind him that no one had born witness to the scene.

‘I’m sorry’, you gasped between staggered breaths, ‘I just...’ and you collapsed in on yourself again, howling with painful laughter as he began to retreat.

‘This is ridiculous,’ he huffed as he made his way down the hall, spinning around in an attempt to extinguish the sounds of mirth which taunted him, ‘I am worthy...you know...’

__

Loki smirked as he heard your unmistakable peals of laughter ringing through the corridors, followed by his brother’s footsteps, heavy with rejection. Fool. How could he have thought that you would fall for the brash display of wanton brawn that he no doubt set out for you. But, Loki reminded himself, this all played to his advantage.

The truth was that Loki had been utterly infatuated with you for months, observing your patterns, interests and relationships around the compound as you went about your daily life as an Agent of Shield, his clandestine operation fuelling his fascination with you behind the curtain of apathy. All coolness played out towards you in daylight hours was made up for tenfold under cover of darkness, when his hands reached between his thighs for relief.

He had imagined you in boundless situations together, a collection of fictions in his mind that lived and breathed and sighed his name under the ministrations of his hands, his tongue, his cock, as desperate with need for him as he for you. In his fantasies, you would come to him by night, a pilgrimage to his rooms, where you would find the salvation you sought. He would absorb you, worshipping every part of you in the flesh as he did in his mind. Your honeyed words would drip out of you as he lapped at the font of your secret devotion for him, hidden all this time.

His thousand yard stare was broken by the sound of light footsteps approaching, right on time.

‘Loki!’ you exclaimed, ‘Jesus I can’t get rid of you two today...your brother isn’t here is he?’

You quickly checked your surroundings for any signs of your would-be suitor as Loki reclined casually on one of the large sofas within the common area of the compound, reading a book.

‘No, he is not’, he replied politely, ‘if he were, I would not be’.

Satisfied, you settled on the opposite sofa, setting your drink down on the table as you watched the infamous god of mischief thumbing over a page. An hour passed in peace as you closed your eyes, drinking in the sunlight streaming through the window, gloriously warming the surface of your skin.  

‘You look like a goddess’, Loki murmured quietly, his words breaking the lengthy silent sea, barely distilling through your meditative state.

‘Hmm?’ you questioned, the words he spoke not bridging the gap to your brain currently occupied by delicious warm restfulness.

‘I said, you look like a goddess’, every word was calligraphy in deep velvet tones. You opened your eyes, locking immediately with the man across from you, staring at you inquisitively.

‘The light’, he gestured, ‘it glows on your skin just so…like a goddess, I would know’, a smile reaching his eyes. That was new.

As much as you had tried to deny it initially, your feelings for Loki had not gone away as the days and months ticked on from his arrival at the compound. His aloofness only served to make you more determined to uncover what lay beneath those layers of cool cynicism...and leather, and tight gym clothes.

He was a high-risk recruit, and not one which you had not been cleared to over-socialise with...so you kept your distance. You watched as he warmed to those around him, as he became accustomed to life in this new world. You made a note of the books he had read and made sure to read them too. Just in case. He liked reading. He liked a lot of things. You hoped he liked you.

When your days were done, your fingers found your way between your thighs and Loki was the only thought in your mind. Oh, the things he had done to you. His fingers had traced every line on your body, explored every crevice for points of pleasure that brought you to ecstasy under his touch. He loved the way you wound his long curls in your hands as he pleasured you, his face buried inside you as he delved to your very core with his tongue. He had taken you in every position, in every available surface of your rooms as you called his name and he yours, his perfect face contorted with the overwhelming passion he felt for you in those moments as you were one.

‘Y/N?’, his soft voice broke your daydream as you came back to reality, ‘Yes.’ you replied, too quick to be believable that you had absolutely not been in another world where he was desperate for your touch.

‘I’m leaving now’, he said soothingly, ‘but I very much enjoyed your company...’

Your heart fluttered at his words, your body responding with a flush of hormones straight to your loins as he gazed down at you from above, his eyes an untameable sea of emotions you were unable to read as he touched your hand lightly and drew it fluidly to his lips, your fingertips ghosting the object of your desire as he pressed them against you, moist from where he had recently licked them.

‘I’ll see you l-later?’, you stuttered, it came out as a question although you had not meant it so. Or had you?

‘Perhaps’, he purred, ‘I am always at your service, Lady’. He lowered your hand, and with a curt bow he moved gracefully towards the exit.

___

You definitely needed that shower now. A cold one. It had been two hours since you finished sparring with Clint and you’d been awkwardly propositioned by one demi-god and given a primal hot flush by another, simply being his inimitable self. The door to your apartment clicked open and you headed straight to the bathroom, the promise of the cool stream of liquid pressure on your body calling you as you stripped from your tight clothes and stepped in to the tub.

Refreshed, you pottered around the apartment you called home at the compound, a thick white towel tucked around your frame as your damp hair brushed your shoulders, earlier events of the day feeling more like a dream with every moment that passed.

Knock Knock

You looked up from your laptop screen, confusion knitting your brow as you checked the time on your phone. You had nowhere to be, no emergency alerts from Fury. You made your way to the door, holding one hand to the towel concealing your modesty as it swung open before you.

Of course.

Thor leaned theatrically against your door-frame, one rippled arm extended above his head as he took up as much space as possible, looking down as his tousled blonde hair fell around his face. His eyes raised slowly to meet your stare of disbelief, ignorant to the effect his display was having on you.

‘Like what you see?’ his voice rumbled, saturated with the same misplaced confidence as the kitchen encounter,

‘I like that you’re wearing a t-shirt now’, you quipped casually as you glanced past him to check for witnesses, Thor’s eyebrows furrowed as his smile turned to a pout processing your words.

His suspicious eyes travelled the lines of your body, naked only for the towel that encased you. Your bare face framed by your wet hair, traces of moisture still clinging to your collarbone as he stared at you hungrily, ‘Norns, you are Rán personified’, he mumbled lustily, ‘goddess of the sea...she had nine children, you know’, he winked.

You stared at him, arms folded, your voice not betraying the pounding of your heart beneath the Egyptian cotton.

‘You’re the second person to call me a goddess today’, you quipped, ‘so I must be doing something right’.

Thor’s arm slid from above him through his hair, curiosity flaring in his gaze, ‘the second?’ his eyes flickered towards the bicep now bulging to his side, willing your gaze to fall upon it in awe.

‘Y/N, I understand that my revelation earlier may have come as a shock to your mortal mind...it is not every day that a figure of legend expresses his wish to bed you and so I am willing to offer you another opportunity…’ he trailed off as his thick hands found their way to his hips pointing towards where his, surely enormous, cock sat concealed, squarely posturing his triangular frame in your field of vision. Impossible to ignore.

‘To fuck you?’, you stated. This was becoming too much and your patience was wearing thin.

‘I wouldn’t have put it quite like that but, yes, if you wish…’, his eyebrows raised as a smug smile danced at his lips.

You cleared your throat, ‘as flattered as I am, son of Odin, I have to decline your offer’ you spoke purposefully, watching the muscles in his face morph from expectation to bemusement with each syllable passing your lips.

‘Y/N I don’t think you understand the honour I am bestowing upon you-’

Without another word, you closed the door.

This was bad. You paced the floor as you pondered your limited options, willing that your pursuer had the sense to leave the situation as it stood. Blessedly, no further protests came from beyond the door that separated you from him, as thoughts of Loki raced through your mind, unbidden.

Surely, he would be able to call his brother off? They were not the closest of kin but his word would likely hold more weight, and believability, than yours. Your mind flashed back to the scene of Loki with his muscled forearm pinning Thor against the wall this very morning, your pussy clenching as you remembered the fire in his eyes in response to the unknown misdemeanour his brother had inflicted. Loki’s words earlier today floated through your memories like pollen, ‘I am always at your service, Lady’, his well-timed promise the final nail in your resolve.

You pressed your ear against the door, satisfying yourself that you could open it without another unwelcome encounter. Hurriedly you scampered down the hall, your bare feet cool against the linoleum floor as you made your way to the apartment you had only fantasised about as you passed it each morning. You knocked gingerly at the door, praying that he was inside.

The door opened almost immediately, revealing the god of mischief looking at you with a perplexed amusement on his angled features. His gaze drew down your body briefly as he straightened, his eyes quickly returning to yours, ‘you are aware that you are wearing only a towel, Agent?’

Oh god.

‘I’m sorry,’ you stuttered, embarrassment soaking through your consciousness like liquor, ‘I needed to see you, I forgot…’, you trailed off as he ushered you inside his rooms, the mischievous glint in his eyes now laced with concern.

‘Tell me’, he stated regally as you paced the floor, not knowing how to begin.

You recounted your meetings with Thor that day to him, as he ran his hands through his hair concealing a smile.

‘I don’t think it’s that funny, actually’, you huffed as his grin finally broke across his face, ‘he’s after me like a horny dog...it’s Thor...what the hell am I supposed to do?’

Loki crossed his arms, resting one long finger on his chin as he pondered your words, ‘have you considered conceding to his request?’ he asked, smoulderingly, ‘you may enjoy it’.

You rolled your eyes as you absorbed his words, how foolish you were to have thought he could help. That he would help. He didn’t care about you, they were as bad as each other. Your heart dropped at the revelation, the object of your desire unknowingly pushing you into the arms of his brother. His rival. You seethed.

‘I can categorically tell you I would not enjoy it. You of all people should understand that…’ you drew yourself up to full height, stoically tightening the fit of your towel as you held your head high, ready to make your defiant exit.

‘Y/N…’ his voice cooed gently, ‘sit down’, he patted the sofa next to where he had planted himself during your display of resolve. You eyed him suspiciously as he gazed at you, no trace of haughtiness in his eyes now.

‘Please?’, he murmured. Your resolve melted.

Cautiously you sat on the opposite side of the sofa to the handsomest man you had ever seen in your life, the one whose voice made you wet with desire, the luxe furnishings he had conjured for himself a stark contrast to the ridiculousness of your appearance. You felt the luxurious fabric beneath you graze against your wetness as you settled, the length of your towel not conducive to the new position you found yourself in. Lord, you hoped you wouldn’t leave a mark.

He cleared his throat.

‘Y/N, my brother is an arrogant oaf, that you know I am sure’, you nodded at his words, ‘however there is another reason for his particularly boorish behaviour today, for which I apologise for my part in it…’

‘Go on…’ your heart quickened, a fizz of anticipation building in your stomach as he spoke.

‘This morning my brother revealed his...intentions...to me regarding you. In his mind, it became a competition of sorts between us, one which he was confident that he would emerge victorious, and I fear my actions only spurred him on...’, Loki looked up at you from hooded eyes, unspoken words clouding them as you drank in his gaze.

‘A competition?’ you repeated...the connotations ticking through your mind,

‘Yes, Y/N, and for that I am sorry...you do not deserve to be treated as such’, his lowered voice tinged with reverence made your pussy throb with need.  

Words formed on your lips before you had a chance to vet them, dripping out of you like the wetness forming on your intimate folds, ‘but...you didn’t compete’, you turned to him – noting his pupils that were widened as he leant towards you, the space between you shortening as you felt your breath become heavy.

‘Didn’t I?’ he purred darkly, ‘...you’re here aren’t you?’

Your head spun. You could feel your hips beginning to squirm minutely beneath you as your pussy keened for attention, the weight of his words only adding to the melody of his breath in your ear, thick with innuendo you wanted to rut yourself upon.

‘Loki, I have to tell you something…’ you started, turning to him as he closed the space between you. His lips moulded to yours as he encased your cheek in one of his slender hands, the other making its way to your waist as you gasped into his kiss. His tongue breached your mouth with ease, twisting around yours with needful passion held back by careful restraint as he measured your response.

He withdrew, his eyes fluttering open to assess the situation. Your eyes were closed, a dreamlike expression on your face as you registered the absence of his touch, a slight frown ghosting across your forehead.

‘Y/N…’ he whispered seductively as you opened your eyes, ‘I too wish to bed you, but for reasons quite different from my brother’, he re-considered his words... ‘somewhat...different to my brother..’

You looked at him with disbelief, was this happening? Were you about to wake up alone, a hot, sweat-ridden mess tangled in your sheets?

‘I have admired you from afar for many months, although I admit it was the gauntlet thrown down by Thor this morning that spurred on my resolve to test your feelings for me, to see if there was a chance that you could feel the same…’, his fingers traced up your thigh as he said it, his light touch making you shiver as you slid your legs wider apart, involuntarily, 

‘...and from your actions just now, it seems I may have arisen victorious from our little bet…’, his eyes flashed as he crashed into you, pressing you to the sofa as his lips ravaged you with finesse.

You moaned wantonly as he moved his attention to your neck, sucking the delicate exposed skin to mark you as his prize, the cock you had dreamed of so vividly in your fantasies hardening against your naked thigh through his sweatpants. One of his hands slid down your chest, pulling your towel aside as it went, gracefully sliding down your body. 

Two fingers brushed through your folds, your desire evident as his eyes lit up at the feeling, ‘darling you are absolutely soaking,’ he moaned in your ear, his hot breath igniting every nerve in your body, ‘...so wet for me and I’ve barely touched you’, you groaned as his fingers slid inside you – gasping as they curled against your clenching walls, ready for everything he had to give you.

‘I’ve thought about this a lot, Loki’, you sighed against him as he manipulated your body to his will, your senses coming undone as reality fell away around you, ‘I’ve felt the same way about you...all this time--’, a low moan escaped you as he began to thumb your clit in slow circles, observing the woman he worshipped beneath him, writhing under his touch – finally.

‘Mmm,’ Loki murmured as his seidr glowed, his clothes disappearing in a shimmer of green as your eyes widened at the sight of his chiselled body coming into view, his long cock pressing against your skin tantalisingly as your hips keening into his fingers massaged it against your naked thigh with every thrust, 

‘well then,’ he growled, the lust in his voice breaking as he lowered his face between your legs, ‘it seems it was I who had the competitive advantage after all...’

Mistletoe | Heracles x Winter Deity!Reader

CW: May be ooc for some characters

જ⁀➴ The cold and icy months of winter were unappealing to many. It brought snow and ice, two things that many mortals after a certain age began to despise for being so messy and dangerous. The crops that humanity grew were unable to survive, wilting and dying because of the icy winds that brought a chill to everything it passed.

જ⁀➴ Though of course, you saw the winter as something different. It was a time to rest after so long months of working, and allowing the cold to clean up. Because after the snow and ice melted away, the land was reborn, and the cycle began again.

જ⁀➴ Winter was special to you, after all many saw it as “your” season, despite there being other gods who also controlled the cold and cruel weather. Though for you, it was a much different circumstance. The “God of Christmas” as many within the heavens would call you, which made just about zero sense…because you had other talents as well, not just being the god of a specific holiday!

જ⁀➴ You are the Norse god of winter, forests, gift-giving, and light. Of course, you understood why many gods and mortals often called you the “God of Christmas”, considering your skill set was almost perfect for such a holiday. But you had to constantly remind them that you took care of other things during the season too, not just a holiday not every mortal celebrated. No matter how hard you tried though, it never seemed to work out…

જ⁀➴ Centuries of trying led you nowhere, so instead you just carried on with what you did best. You controlled the icy winds and snow during the cold season, and you did it well.

જ⁀➴ After many weeks of celebration, it all came to an end on a quiet night. Midgard was almost…peaceful, the only fighting you took notice of was from children and their innocent snowball fights. It was odd, compared to the rest of the year when there was constant fighting and suffering…

જ⁀➴ Currently, you stood on a balcony within the Valhalla Arena. It was a place where many gods found themselves roaming when they weren’t with their respective pantheons. You were one of them, quietly looking down at Midgard and seeing yours, and many other gods’ work. It was simple, yet you had done it well…and it was something you were proud of. Another successful winter, you would say. Though, you could only speak for your own work.

જ⁀➴ But of course, the peace must all come to an end. A pair of footsteps behind you caught your attention, and you quietly tilted your head in that direction with a soft hum.

“A visitor? I wasn’t expecting one of those…”

「 ✦ Heracles ✦ 」 [ can be seen as either platonic or romantic ]

“Heracles…”

The envoy of justice had once been human, a mortal known as “Alcides” who ascended to godhood after drinking Ambrosia. Of course, many within your pantheon looked down on him.

To them, he wasn’t a real god.

You had always admired the way he chose to simply ignore them, especially Odin, but he had always chastised the Greek pantheon no matter the circumstance.

Eventually though, the god cleared his throat, drawing you away from your thoughts.

“Am I interrupting something? I can take my leave right away…” Heracles looked down at you, a soft smile on his face.

“No, no, you don’t have to leave…I am just simply lost in my thoughts.”

There was a small silence between you two, the only sound in the area was the simple ring from chimes hanging from the balcony you stood on. They had been placed there by the Valkyries, a way for them to make the arena seem more festive.

They had done well in your opinion.

“Your thoughts?”

You found yourself smiling toward the god, fully turning to face him after a moment. You were certainly shorter than the envoy of justice was, considering he became almost as tall as Odin once he drank the Ambrosia.

“Winter is beautiful, is it not? I understand it can be cruel, but sometimes I find myself lost while staring at the blankets of snow— or the sculptures of ice that humanity created.”

You smile fondly at the thought, glancing back over the balcony you stood on. Heracles remained quiet as you spoke, as if he was waiting for his turn.

“…ah, I’m rambling,” you mutter softly before smiling,”apologies.”

“Please don’t apologize, I don’t mind listening to you talk.” Heracles’ eyes brightened at your words, before he quietly glanced up and his face flushed.

Of course, you followed his gaze and almost went red in the face from surprise. Above you was something you hadn’t even noticed before.

Mistletoe.

The tradition of mistletoe was something that everyone seemed to know, even if they didn’t practice it. Any two people that were caught standing underneath it would have to kiss.

Gods and mortals both shared some strange traditions.

How you didn’t notice it before was a surprise, after all, you had been at the balcony almost the entire afternoon and night.

“Ah…”

Heracles was dead silent, turning his face away from you which was almost as scarlet as his hair.

You had gone quiet as well, your e/c eyes scanning over the tall god before you. Never had you seen him so flustered before, especially by something so small! It was almost as if he was a different person.

It was a strange sight.

Though, you were quickly pulled away from your thoughts once more as the god reached out and gently took your hand. He held it gently, as if he held it harder you would break.

You stared at him in surprise, your heart beating heavy in your chest as you watched him.

Heracles held your hand in his, raising it up soon and placing a kiss on the back of your hand. It was soft, almost as if it was two rose petals were being pressed to your skin. The gods blue eyes soon met yours, before he let go of your hand shortly after.

“Take care of yourself, Y/N.”

The envoy of justice offered you a soft smile, turning away from you fully and disappearing back into the halls of the Valhalla Arena. The only thing you heard was his heavy footsteps in the distance, as well as your own beating heart.

You stood there on the balcony in silence, placing a hand on your chest as you watched where the god had walked off to.

…what had just happened?

The snow that you had been controlling around Valhalla suddenly seemed to pick up around you, almost matching the rate of your heartbeat.

Happy Holidays!

[acourtofthought]

Do you think elucien will defeat koschei next book? I feel like koschei is a part of the overarching bigger plot, and it would be too soon for it to happen next book. Sarah said that each couple would have their own little story while there's a bigger plot that connects the books. UNLESS the human queens and the situation with the human lands and the wall is the overarching plot? Hmm

I do actually.

Once upon a time we thought we were only getting two more ACOTAR books after SF (with one possibly being set in the past which means she was never sure on Koschei extending beyond two spin-offs) and a novella but since then, SJM has signed up on for additional books (though we don't know exactly which series those all belong to) and has said that she knows she'll never be done writing the acotar series.

If she plans on continuing ACOTAR for an undetermined time frame, it's a fair assumption to say that the Koschei plot is not going to drag out over the course of many more books, she'll have to wrap up his story then introduce a new plot to the characters.

She also had a WIP named Twilight of the Gods and is suddenly giving attention to the would have been "Dusk" court.

I think Koschei is the big bad to close out the Archeron sisters saga, which will leave Prythian, the fae on the other continents and the humans in the human lands in peace once again.

I think a novella will then bridge the gap to a new round of books, closing out the HEA for Feyre, Nesta, and Elain then focusing on non Archeron sister main characters, set partially in the ACOTAR world but also connecting to her multiverse (though the sisters would still make appearances as side characters).

HOFAS clearly seemed to set up for a future reunion of Nesta and Ember, the possibility of threats from other worlds, and SF included the possibility for the characters to travel through time and space.

But right now in the ACOTAR world, (and even at the end of HOFAS), there are no actual threats involving time travel. The possibility of them yes, but nothing concrete.

And I think the Valkyrie will be at the center of the new round of books but to me their storyline and anything time travel related doesn't seem to be priorty over that which is going on in Spring, the continent, with Beron and with Koschei (plots that seem strongly connected to Elain and Lucien).

All the language SJM uses for the Valkyrie and time travel seems to hint at something that will take place in their world later. After they secure the peace elsewhere, after the treaty is signed, after Koschei and Beron are dealt with, after the climate elsewhere is settled.

Considering the Valkrie were just reborn in SF, I think it makes sense for there to be a bit more time from their inception (which right now only includes three females who haven't had battle training yet) until they are a fully formed elite female fighting unit heading into battle and possibly traveling to other worlds. Having an entire unit of female warriors who have never fought in battle together, who have never trained together (again, right now it's only three females, not a whole group and two who only just left where they were living for the first time ever) become a major part of the series the same year the idea of the Valkyrie was reborn seems less likely to me.

And I think it makes sense for SJM to close out the three sisters arcs, the ones who basically launched the series as it now is for her since she's on record saying how their return in book 2 changed the course of the books for her, and then focus on what comes after, the world as it expanded while writing SF.

A prediction for ACOTAR 5 about the Valkyries and the Illyrians

Coming atcha from the middle of my post-HOFAS reread of ACOSF.

(HOFAS spoilers after the break)

From ACOSF, ch. 38, when Gwyn is telling Nesta and Emerie about Mind-Stilling:

"It involved deep breathing and becoming aware of one's body, then learning to let go. They [the original Valkyries] used it to remain calm in the face of their fears, to settle themselves after a hard battle, and to fight whatever inner demons they possessed."

"Illyrian warriors do no such thing," Emerie murmured. "Their heads are full of rage and battle. It's only gotten worse since the last war. Now that they're rebuilding their ranks."

What if the rebirth of the Valkyries, under Nesta, Gwyn, and Emerie, will have a direct positive effect on the Illyrians as they contend with the discovery of their origins as creations of the Daglan?

The whole second half of ACOSF, culminating in Gwyn and Emerie winning the Blood Rite and achieving the Carynthian rank and Nesta the Oristian rank, has woven into it the idea that the Valkyries reborn, under the training and tutelage of two Carynthian Illyrian warriors in Cassian and Azriel, are not quite Illyrian in technique and not wholly Valkyrie in technique, but something completely new that blends the two.

But what if, it's not only the new Valkyries that are going to benefit from the cross-pollination of fighting techniques? What if, as Azriel inevitably contends with his loathing of his own Illyrian people in ACOTAR 5, and clearly Nesta has been set up in HOFAS to play a big role in ACOTAR 5 as well (and with Nesta comes Gwyn and Emerie) — what if part of how both Az and, by extension, the Illyrians as a whole, come to terms with the fact that they were created to be almost monstrous soldier grunts for their even more monstrous Daglan overlords, and overcome the negative effects of that heritage, is to absorb the healthier approach to fighting and battle espoused by the Valkyries?

What if Az, with the Valkyrie trio and Cassian, help the Illyrians in part by showing them there is another way to be a warrior culture that doesn't cause harm to themselves (vis a vis misogyny and a rage-fueled approach to fighting), a la the Valkyries?

It seems both groups — Illyrians and Valkyries reborn — stand to gain and learn from each other, and it seems like the set up for ACOTAR 5 is the perfect opportunity to tell a story that features a symbiotic relationship between these two cultures.

(I also both wish and predict in tandem with this healing process that past clippings of female Illyrians' wings, centering Emerie but radiating out to them all, get healed and reversed through some intense creative (firstlight core under Ramiel?) magic. 👀)

[officialvalkyrieweek]

So the prompts are finally here on the 17th of May as promised!!! We wanted to create as much prompts as possible to give our girls the appreciative justice that they deserve so we extended Valkyrie week to 10 days instead of just 7.

I hope you all like these prompts as much as we do!!! And now onto what these prompts will mean for Valkyrie week:

Day 1: Training ⚔️

Training with Cassian and Azriel, was the beginning of a beautiful friendship between the girls. Nesta was the one to encourage both Gwyn and Emerie to join. After this, they train almost every day together.

Day 2: The Ribbon 🎀

In Valkyrie tradition, cutting a ribbon makes you an official Valkyrie warrior. We know this because of Gwyn's research on it. Gwyn becomes the very first Valkyrie reborn after cutting the ribbon. Then Emerie, then Nesta!!!

Day 3: The House ⛰️

The House became Nesta's first friend and was a crucial part in Nesta's healing journey and her eventual friendships with Gwyn and Emerie. This day will be dedicated to all the sleepovers the girls have together, while the House spoils them!!

Day 4: Friendship Bracelets ❤️‍🔥

The friendship bracelets became so important to their friendship. It was inspired by Gwyn who used to make bracelets with her sister Carin as a token of their love for each other. This is a healing experience for all.

Day 5: Pegasus 🪽

We know that in the acotar world, Valkyries used to ride a Pegasus into war. This will be a fun day where you can let your imagination go wild as the Valkyries ride a Pegasus together.

Day 6: Valkyries 🌌

The very day the girls cut the ribbon, Cassian and Azriel feel a powerful force watching over them all. Like it was waiting all this time for that particular moment. This is a reminder that the Valkyries are reborn, not just with Nesta, Emerie and Gwyn, but the rest of the priestesses too.

Day 7: The Blood Rite 🩸

The Blood Rite, was the biggest challenge and test to the Valkyries. During the rite, they told each others stories, showing their resilience, determination and also their love for each other no matter what. They overcame so many challenges during this time and came out on top, with 2 becoming Carynthians and one becoming an Oristian.

Day 8: Love Interests 💕

This will be a fun day dedicated to the love interests of the Valkyries. These can be love interests that are already together or crackships. Whatever your heart desires.

Day 9: Modern AU 🌃

This is just a fun day for all the Modern AU lovers out there to let yourself create something that shows the Valkyries in a modern like setting.

Day 10: Free Day ✨

Lastly, this day will be for you guys to decide what you all want to do. Let your imagination run freely and see what you all come up with!!!
