Peeps- I’m having ideas about Loki and Heimdall interactions during Loki’s “reign”. Like what happened with Heimdall? What if there was communication between the two? Strained, angry, troubled, angsty, reluctantly bordering on confidante…?

I may have to fic this out

they are trying to keep thinks civil for the good of Asgard. Their meetings are tense and awkward as fuck. Loki doesn’t spend all day fucking about, he actually has some chops. His political instincts are as good as his father’s. He can see through every move and every intention. He only needs to fucking focus and work every now and again, and he will make a good king. Heimdall has experience and vision and keeps him on a very short leash: you shift your ass and do your kingly duties, and no playing silly buggers, and your secret is safe with me and we’ll get along just fine. Their relationship develops into a begrudgingly annoying yet surprisingly effective alliance. Asgard is actually in a period of peace, rebirth, prosperity and splendor like it hasn’t known since Thor’s exile, Frigga’s death, and everything going to shit. Also, this new, rejuvenated Odin is actually more fun than he has been in ages. Asgard is pleased. Heimdall and Loki will always be uncomfortable allies (Loki is a trickster, Heimdall sees all), but somehow it works.

I’m pretty sure Loki-as-Odin exiled Heimdall very early on, purportedly as a punishment for his assistance with Thor’s plot during TDW. I doubt that there was any communication between them at all during Loki’s reign.

DAMMIT

I thought he’d just sent him off to do something. Damn, I really need to see it again.

I think skurge said he’d been banished for conspiring against the crown? Although I could be making that up…

Yeah, I thought that was a reference to the plot in TDW. But it could have been something else Loki cooked up later.

But what if there was some agreement at the very beginning? What if somehow *somehow* Loki convinced Heimdall to keep his secret and help him. They make some sort of deal. But Loki falters or bucks Heimdall’s counsel and finally Loki/Odin exiles him for “treason”.

It’s possible, and you could certainly fic it! I don’t think that’s the most obvious interpretation of what the movie shows, but it would be more interesting.
