King & Lionheart

13. Sorry about the blood in your mouth. I wish it was mine. (Thor/Sif, MCU) 

The battle had been glorious—mostly because they had won and lived to tell the tale. Songs would be sung of this day; of that, Thor had no doubt. But he was not thinking of the songs.

Lady Sif spat blood onto the torn ground as she cleaned her blade. “Are you wounded?” asked Thor. "We should make haste to the healing halls--"

“It is nothing,” Sif assured him. “A mere scratch. This filth—” She kicked the carcass at her feet. “—got in one good blow before I took his head off. A cut inside my mouth, nothing more.”

“Ah, a pity. I wish it was mine.”

Sif stared at him.

Too late, Thor realized what he had said. “I-I mean, I wish I could have taken the blow for you! Not that you couldn’t have handled it, obviously, you did handle it but—”

“Thor.” Lady Sif sheathed her blade and grinned at him. “Stop trying to be gallant. It’s wasted on me.”

“Of course,” said Thor with a smile.

A/N: for the rarepairficexchange, for theharleyquinn

On Asgard, a soulmate was the most treasured bond one could form, outside those forged in battle. It is a connection brought upon by a power not fully understood and known by even the Gods, and that mystery made those connections all that more desired, more cherished.

It is a concept that Thor learned of as a child, watching his mother take care of his new baby brother (His name is Loki, Thor, be gentle, was the firm but kind advice she had given him), and upon chance, seeing his father’s name scrawled across her collarbone and immediately demanding answers.

One that she explained, with the simplest words possible.

“Does father have your name as well?” he asked, blue eyes wide and curious.

“He does,” she confirmed, her eyes twinkling.

Thor looked on his own skin, nose wrinkling. “And there shall be a day when I too will have a name?”

“Yes, my dear, there will be,” Frigga said, fondness in her tone and expression evident.

“When?” He wasn’t sure whether he wanted the name immediately, or at all. All he wished to do was play and fight.

“When you are ready.”

Try as he may, there was no other answer he would be able to coax, from her or his father. Only that when the time was right, he shall receive the name of the one who was the other half of his soul.

It was not long after that he first met Sif.

“Every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it’s gonna take A million dreams for the world we’re gonna make.”
