    Summary

    Story in answer to a prompt on Norsekink:

    Prompt:
    Let us assume that Thor, being big with golden hair and blue eyes is the Asgard ideal man.

    Now let us assume that Loki is not. He's got the height but not the muscle, his hair is black and what's with the green eyes? Green? Seriously, yuk!

    Anyway, due to everyone on Asgard thinking Loki is actually quite hideous he has never managed to talk anyone into going to bed with him, either as a one night stand or a serious relationship. He tried hard in the beginning but the constant polite declines (and private ridicule that he listened in on) were too embarrassing and hurtful and eventually he just stopped trying.

    Okay, so Loki's got the worst self esteem in history and is convinced he's the ugliest thing ever to walk Asgard. Now he's on Earth and fighting the Avengers.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This story is the best. Don't let the fact that it has so few reviews fool you, the only reason for that is because it was posted on the meme before and already completed, so they just posted it all at once.

    Jimbob is the greatest.

    Also, you're gonna suffer, but you're gonna be...happy about it.

    Odin's solid C+ parenting indeed! While Odin isn't actually present in this fic, he is a definite presence, so that merits a spot in the collect.

    The hope here just kills me.

    Not a fix-it fic. A realistic take on a might-have-been scene after Loki is imprisoned in Asgard.

    Collected!

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This fic is wonderful and well-paced. The opening chapter is my favorite, with Loki trying to think of what he may have done wrong that would make Odin ask to see him and Odin beginning to realize how very little he knows or even sees of Loki. How he hasn't even had a real, private conversation with him in centuries.

    So into the collection it goes!

    Summary

    For my own prompt at Norsekink:
    [Gen] Loki and Odin, "No you can't have his head" H/C
    I just found a version of the lip-sewing story in which the dwarf demands Loki's head AND ODIN REFUSES. Comes right out and says, "No, that's crazy, ask for something else."

    The dwarf then tries to insist and kick up a fuss, and that is when Loki uses his loophole, and also when, to placate the dwarf, the Aesir agree to the lip-sewing.

    I'd like to see this, and then later Odin going to Loki with his godly manicure scissors and cutting the stitches loose while giving Loki six kinds of worried-dad hell along the lines of "you're going to be the death of me, don't ever do anything like that again, and by the way thank you for the wonderful spear."
