@claricechiarasorcha had the great idea for those of us who have been swimming in these thorki waters for a while now to rec a handful of our own older fics for this current wave of newcomers. I have, I think, written a wide and weird variety of stuff over the years, and it was hard to narrow it down, but here’s a few of mine that I think were pretty good.
Inspired by Terry Pratchett’s Wintersmith, this one is an AU in which the endless winter overtakes the world, Thor is a mortal boy born at the very end of the last summer, and Loki is a very peculiar, lonely spirit of winter.
The requisite AU in which Loki was raised in Jotunheim and marries Thor in an arranged marriage for political reasons (with ulterior motives of course). There just isn’t enough fic with mpreg Thor and I had to do my part to rectify that situation.
I like playing around with the mythology aspect of the fandom now and then, and this one shows the course of Thor and Loki’s relationship through the eyes of their younger brother, Baldr.
Starting from a kinkmeme prompt, this grew into my first novel-length fic. Starts at the end of the first Thor movie; instead of backhanding Thor with the Destroyer, Loki demands that Thor come back to Asgard with him while still mortal and become his servant to make up for things between them.
Just wanted to throw in a very old fic of mine, from when I was first figuring out how much fun I have writing bottom Thor. Includes Loki being a miserable ball of angst as he gets to have his sex-pollened brother in the way he has always secretly desired.
…you know, I figured that, as new
people come to the pairing via Ragnarok, that it would be good for those of us who came before
to do a self rec! Just four or five fics of our own that we’re
particularly proud of, or that we’d just like to share; there’s been so
many wonderful fics over the years, and this is an easy way of
bringing some back. ❤ Please tag me if you do it too, I’d love to
revisit/discover fics!
The
wedding trick fic that haunted me from the moment I first saw the
prompt, in which Thor and Loki get “fake married” via very old magics
only to discover that strangely, the clause against blood relation
doesn’t quite apply to them…
Thor discovers something unexpected about Loki – and in turn, discovers something even more unexpected about himself. (Specifically bottom!Thor as requested by @thorduna, because lord knows we always need more of that.)
A series of two fics (The Fools We Are As Men andWhat the Thunder Said) that begins with what appears to be a straight-forward fuck-or-die fic, but then promptly turned into an epic monster. And it’s always @sexualthorientation who reminds me of the good things about the latter fic, though the former will always be one of my favourite things I’ve written.)
Otherwise known as the glowdick!fic, a story that starts out as the purest of crack but then turns into something…considerably deeper. In all sorts of ways.
In which Jane, Thor, and then Loki get to tell their parts of the story in a post-TDW fix-it fic involving the infinity stones.
Also, you can always find me on this tumblr, or at twitter here. ❤ The twitter tends to be mostly kylux stuff, but I flit around various pairings as I see fit, ha.
ETA: if you’re into gladiator!Thor, I do keep meaning to get back into this AU fic, too; feel free to kick me into writing it again! (The King and I)
Sorry to keep self-promoting, but have you read my post-Ragnarok fic, Zeno’s Paradox? It’s pretty short, so it doesn’t address all of those issues, but I do try to acknowledge some of the shit that Odin left in his wake. @incredifishface a.k.a. thebookhunter’s fic, appropriately enough called Bookie’s Hug Fic, also makes a point of acknowledging the rift in Thor and Loki’s relationship. @raven-brings-light‘s fic The opposite of love offers an interestingly angsty reading of the sotory about 8-year-old Loki turning into a snake and stabbing Thor.
The absolute angstiest fic I’ve read is @illwynd‘s Over Now. It’s sort of an alternate-ending Ragnarok fic based on the 2004 Ragnarok storyline in the comics, and using that to comment on Thor’s attitude toward Loki in the movie. Warning: darkness ahead.
