I remember you

“New Years get sort of hard to count when you’re traveling so often.” 

It was strange for him to think about– he and Amy had been traveling for so long now. Important dates, holidays– they all tended to blend together. But usually they could fight for the time around Christmas, almost as if it really were a proper winter break. 

She used to keep track in their book. Holidays were important. Somewhere along the line she’d forgot a few. Flipping through the pages in the worn, blue binding she muttered to herself.

Lokes you (un)lucky boy, you’ve had me writing you for 2 years now and zero regrets. Aside from that I’d love to still poke my old main again at some point oops >.> Thank you to everyone who’s stuck with me, joined me, written with me or enjoyed reading/reblogging this Loki’s content.

So today I’m going to do a really random thing. I’ve just come back from a concert of Holst’s The Planets and it got me really inspired putting Asgardian gods and such to the different themes, and I thought why not throw muses under the categories too? As with last blogiversary I’m going to tag my current partners as a promo for all you lovely people to go check out. I’ve likely forgotten one or two newer partners who haven’t been added to my list yet. If any one of you doesn’t wish to be on here, just privately IM me and I’ll edit the post.

This is just a bit of fun for my silly brain so please don’t take it to heart whatever category I lob your blogs under. Holst didn’t cover every personality or concept. Think of it like being assigned a wedding table and don’t throw food at me.

Mars, The Bringer of War

Technically there are at least 5 Norse gods who get linked to war, which mythologically doesn’t count Sif, and this made me think of all of Asgard going to war in general. Thor is so powerful he feels very waresque, but his counterpart numbers among one of the later planets I wanted for him. Characters particularly associated with battle, anger, violence or who are from places ravaged by war have been lovingly settled here.

Venus, The Bringer of Peace 

Holst seems to have focused on the peace aspect as a reflection of war but we normally associate Venus with love, sex, fertility. Any muse I associate with bringing peace to others or relating especially to healing, lust, love or fertility have been put here. Once again, not including Thor despite his fertility god status.

Mercury, The Winged Messenger

God of commerce, travel, luck, trickery, thieves and communication among so much else. This one does suit Tony Stark very well, but I’ve designated him another spot for later explained reasons. This also especially should suit Loki, but I’ve given him another section, too. Those muses I have associated with travelling, luck, spying, investigation, cheekiness or tricksiness get to sit here.

Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity

Since Jupiter is claimed as god of the sky and thunder, here is where Thor gets to reside. Being a piece of joy and happiness, it’s also where I have put some more innocent muses who are the light of their surroundings. Jupiter is also very heavily steeped in religious and patriotic sentiment (particularly with the I Vow To Thee My Country hymn) which is why Steve Rogers has been put here rather than in the War section, and also shares the space with Daredevil.

Saturn, The Bringer of Old Age

Ok before all my Tonys start screaming HOW DARE, you all know how much I love him so here’s why he’s in this category. Saturn is being noted as the ‘god of generations’ thing but he’s also all about being god of wealth, plenty and liberation. I wanted this to reflect Tony’s generosity and his legacy, and to contrast with the fact I kind of associate this piece with Thanos (not just because randomly there’s a lovely Thanos mun called Saturn XD) when I listen to it. He brings the end and the terrible balance, and Tony is the counter to that. I also see this as something representing immortality, so Grandmaster got popped here too.

Uranus, The Magician

Loki’s gonna kill me now. The actual god Uranus doesn’t fit Loki in the slightest. He’s the official god of the sky according to wiki, which is unhelpful considering we already gave that title to Jupiter. Why Loki gets this category however is the piece itself. A magician, an illusionist, Holst’s piece feels very Loki-like. It’s showy, egotistical, sneaky, loud, quiet, sinister, joyful and all round tricksy. I don’t need to promo myself, but I do have a lovely Loki I can put here. Honestly I should snaffle more duplicates again someday because double trouble is always fun.

Neptune, The Mystic

For obvious reasons title-wise, here’s where all my Stranges be at. Neptune is a sea god otherwise so he’s not aesthetically suited to Stephen, but the sound of the piece works very well for him imo along with the mystic aspect.

An extra special love on my bestie, @araedi​, for coming with me to this fandom back in 2017 and for making it the most amazing experience. It’s super hard being a Thor among all the love for Loki so I urge anyone in need of more Thor (and frankly who doesn’t?) to leap on this amazing mun and interpretation of our lovable god of thunder. After everything he’s been through MCU and comic-wise just give him the world ok.
