  Summary

  Prince Loki of Asgard fell from the Bifrost and perished. Lukas Eld lives a quiet life amidst his fellow humans, working as a historian for a nondescript museum, and dreaming of the Void at night. When S.H.I.E.L.D. drags him in to an investigation involving magical artifacts ripped from the pages of the mythology he studies, Lukas finds himself torn between the cold ghost of the truth and the living warmth of the lie.

  The arrival of Thor does not make things any easier.

  Summary

  Home is where you make it. Or, the AU where Loki falls to Earth after Thor, wanders around trying to work out what to do with himself, and somehow ends up working for SHIELD. (Mostly because supervillains are so plebian.)
