Just remembered that when I was 12(?), I was going to watch the hobbit movies but got distracted a few minutes in and then spent the next >2h trying to come up with the most regal sounding way to say Thranduil’s name and just repeating it an absurd amount of times.
(I had chicken pox at the time and was just very bored and sitting in my bed.)
Petition to rename(MCU) Loki to Loki Friggabarn. Giving Loki this last name would follow the Viking naming convention of someone’s last name being their parents first name (usually) followed by either son or dottir. (This way of giving last names is actually still used in Iceland) Frigga, because she was Loki’s only true parent (let’s face it Odin was an asshole and Loki never even knew Laufey) and barn because it means child in at least 3 Nordic languages (Danish,Swedish and Norwegian) and the reason Loki doesn’t get son or dottir in their last name is because they’re genderfluid/non-binary. So all in all Loki Friggabarn.
Edit: apparently there’s a gender neutral “child of” suffix in icelandic, it’s -bur, so Loki’s name could also be Loki Friggabur.
AU where Zuko realises very early into his banishment that he’s been sent on a hopeless goose chase and, actually, he doesn’t want to return to the oppressive Fire Nation and his abusive father. And he sticks with this decision even after Aang wakes up from the iceberg
Except then Aang meets Zuko - probably when Zuko jumps in to save someone, because his sense of justice is too strong to just sit back while someone is hurt, even if he is trying to remain apolitical - and his brain goes “!!!!” Because that’s a good firebender. They do exist. And now Aang knows someone who can teach him firebending without trying to kill him
Except Zuko wants nothing to do with the Avatar. He especially doesn’t want to get entangled with his father’s war. So the rest of the season is about Zuko running from the Avatar, and Aang and co trying to capture the reluctant ex-Prince of the Fire Nation so he can be Aang’s firebending teacher
That wasn’t even the first time, it wasn’t even the 150th time Dick called him dad, but Battinson still cries every time it happens because he’s just like that.
(Sorry if my English isn’t very good/hard to read, English is my third language and I don’t really know how commas work lol)
Clark Kent: you can’t just let this 8 year go out in the night and fight crime
Battinson on the verge of tears: that’s what I told him but he won’t listen to me
Robin! Dick gleefully: I am going to be just like my dad!
Battinson sobbing: Dad
If Loki had any kind of pet he would definitely make them some little golden horns. Just imagine him shaping some tinfoil and spray painting it gold to put on his pet cat, or someone else's cat like Bucky's to mess with him.
Reverse Robin au but the ages aren't changed. Just adoption order.
Probably, yeah.
completely hypothetically if i were to release an EP that was centered around sapphic connections and the idea of loving and losing and worshipping women with a mitski-like sound and florence + the machine-like lyrics and a late 90’s vibe would y’all listen to it? completely hypothetically of course
I personally think he’d:
Also be a werewolf.
Be killed by Fenrir Greyback on the same night Remus became a werewolf.
Not a werewolf and died because he accidentally walked in on Remus transforming at some point when they were kids.
Both 1&3, he died during a full moon as a child either because Remus accidentally scratched and killed him or he accidentally scratched himself so hard that he died. But no one knows for sure what happened that night.
Animagus who turns into a wolf or a very small dog.
I think him being named Romulus and dying tragically, especially if Remus accidentally killed him when they were kids, would be an interesting inversion of the Roman myth of the founding of Rome because Romulus is the one who kills Remus in the myth.
I just want to know the general consensus of the hypothetical
How did you spend the ao3 shutdown?
I was busy turning my bathroom into a biohazard comparable to nuclear fallout because I’m stupid and ate an entire jar of roasted onions yesterday. And re-reading wfa.
Can we have a Harry Potter AU where Regulus Black is the Death Eater spy turned potions master instead of Snape?
