The Spaces In Between by GaryTheFish

Summary
Loki fell, and Odin didn't catch him. He could have. He's the All-Father, after all. He could have saved him. Could have caught him, but instead he just stood there and watched his son-not-son tumble into the Void.
One year later, Loki is brought through a wormhole into SHIELD's dark matter lab, half a step this side of dead and with no memory of where he's been. The Realms are in chaos. Odin is expending massive amounts of energy to rebuild Bifrost (with no Tesseract), and when the news arrives that his snarky little black-haired relic has survived the impossible, Odin does what he does best.
He takes a nap.
Or, how Loki was lost and found and lost and found and maybe found again.
(An AU fic mostly from Loki's POV which takes place after Thor and will eventually be woven into kind of the Avengers. Chapters are short! Read a few! You won't be disappointed! (also I love feedback!))

Summary
I stop and I stare too much
Afraid that I care too much
And I hardly dare to touch
For fear that the spell may be brokenThe sweetest perfection
Takes me completely
Touches so sweetly
Reaches so deeply
Nothing can stop meSeries

Summary
This is not the end
This is not the beginning,Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you goI know what it takes to move on,
I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't gotCause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we get it, forget it,
Let it all disappearSeries

Summary
When you were standing in the wake of devastation
When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
And with the cataclysm raining down
Insides crying, "Save me now!"
You were there, impossibly aloneAnd in a burst of light that blinded every angel
As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
You felt the gravity of tempered grace
Falling into empty space
No one there to catch you in their arms(What do you remember?)

Summary
Come lay down at the edge
Come lay down where the time's suspended
Come lay down and hear the voices calling you
From a northern skyYour eyes are open and singing
Your eyes are open and not quite breathing
Your eyes are open seeing things that I can't see
As hard as I tryFollow me and don't look down

Summary
Hearts are worn in these dark ages
You're not alone in this story's pages
The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying
And I'll try to hold it in, yeah I'll try to hold it inI watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what's coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
Don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be aloneThe world's on fire and
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
(Try to bring my share)
I try to bring more
More than I can handle
(Bring it to the table)
Bring what I am ableSeries

Summary
Deep in her eyes
I think I see the future
I realize this is my last chanceShe took my arm
I don't know how it happened
We took the floor and she said
Oh don't you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me
I said you're holding back
She said shut up and dance with meThis woman is my destiny
