Evergreen the Trees »
It was a time for gifts. Mahal had given them so much. In remembering the stories, they recalled all of their Maker's gifts, and gifts changed hands. 24 un-connected drabbles/vignettes counting down the days until Christmas. Each day focused on a different character. No pairings. Rated k-plus for my peace of mind.

4 It Would Never Have Been Easy
What Odin and Frigga proposed to do, would never have been easy. - And Loki wasn't the only one to experience fallout. What might have happened had Odin and Frigga done things differently?

7The Lies We Tell
Sometimes, the lies we tell are meant to protect the ones we love. Introspective Odin/Loki-centric one-shot. T for mild gore and thematic elements. Pre-Ragnarok.

10 Alliances Hitherto Undreampt

13 He Knew I Liked Snakes
Thor will never give up on his little brother. This one was intended to be funny. It's not, but it does have a happy ending. IW spoilers. I mostly skim over the repairs. Cap, Nat, Sam as well as Clint and his family play some role in this story.

25 Send them Off »
Post 'Ragnarok'. SPOILERS. Just some moments/discussions I thought the brothers could use after everything they've been through that the movie did not leave time for. Three unrelated one-shots, for now. I may add to it later.

38Little Lion Man »
Odin Borson. Heir of Asgard. His story started long before he was King. And will seemingly continue long after, as it yet appears he has much to do. Centuries Pre-Thor, through The Dark World. Rated T because Odin's not exactly a White Knight and I didn't want to have to be too cautious.Thor, T, English, Drama & Family, chapters: 38, words: 24k+, favs: 13, follows: 14, updated: 4/16/2018 published: 9/8/2017, Thor, Odin, Loki, Frigga
4 Victorious
Asgard was his. He'd won it easily, and completely. The deception he had to maintain was a small price, especially since the people were idiots. Fooled completely. Or were they? - Probably a misguided attempt at an ironic kind of humor. Takes place pre-Ragnarok.Thor, K+, English, words: 2k+, favs: 7, follows: 5, 4/4/2018
7 Viva la Vida (The Mother we Share)
"But that was when I ruled the world." My justification of Loki's arc from the end of 'The Dark World' through 'Ragnarok'. Contains major spoilers. Rated T out of habit.Thor, T, English, Family & Hurt/Comfort, words: 8k+, favs: 20, follows: 14, 11/19/2017, Loki
