Heimdall: Loki what are you doing

Loki: *gathering his knives* Now that I'm done laughing I'm going down there and stabbing all his pathetic "friends" for making fun of him!!! No one does that except for me!!!!

Heimdall: why are u like this

(This is what I was thinking during endgame)

No but fr we could have had some good odinson brother content if Loki just stayed alive for at least the end of IW.

Nope! The series was never discontinued, just put on hold for a little while. I was shell-shocked after seeing Infinity War in the theater by myself, bad enough that for a long time afterward the thought of going to a movie theater made me break out in a cold, nausea-fueled sweat. (PTSD, basically. I developed PTSD from seeing a movie.) I couldn’t bring myself to work on any post-Ragnarok fics for two years. It just felt like a useless effort with how things ended in canon. Nihilistic hopelessness isn’t very conducive to writing.

But now that I’ve gone through all the stages of grief (and many, many jötunn AUs), and I officially have no more fucks to give, I can happily show the MCU my middle finger and pick up where I left off.

Let’s set aside our differences for a moment and think about the things we have in common.

Thank you, kind anon! Oh yes, I'm still continuing the In Side Out series. I'm about 5K into the next installment, so it's probably halfway done. I'm sure a lot of people are wondering why it's taking so long to get it written, so allow me to explain:

April 2018. I had already written and posted the first chapter of Side By Side and was well into the second chapter when I went and saw Infinity War. I was shell-shocked for a month afterward. A lot of us were.

I was able to harness some of my trauma and use it to finish that intensely emotional second chapter of Side By Side. Upon completion, I decided to take a rest, try to heal. Watching Loki die horribly and seeing Thor struggle with his grief was not the kind of entertainment I was expecting from Marvel, especially after the colorful, lighthearted ride that was Ragnarok. 

I was hurting. I needed to make something fluffy and sweet and happy to offset all the angst inside me. I wanted a fairy tale. A soft story about Loki being in trouble and Thor coming to his rescue, plucking him from the hands of death and whisking him away to a magical sanctuary, taking care of him, feeding him, coddling him, literally washing away his horrible past with lots of bubbles and big fluffy towels.

So I started The Little Frost Troll, and that’s been my main writing project for the last year, the primary (or at least regular) recipient of my attention. But rest assured, I’ve not abandoned In Side Out. I’m working on it as often as I can (I’ve got a couple drawing projects that are also vying for my attention, plus Endgame derailed me for about a month), and soon it’ll be ready for showtime. 

oh god whenever i feel like i’m done with iw salt i’m like AND ANOTHER THING!!! tbh i don’t think like….russos are smart enough to turn it around and like….had they been smart there really were so many wonderful ways they could have dealt with the asgardians, loki, thor and the tasseract. like the end of ragnarok really left them with a magnificent playground but they really went out of their way to do the most predictable shit possible. 

           2) Their exchange went like this— "If you wanted to have a kid you wouldn’t have done that. / [...] It’s nothing; it’s just a housing for nanoparticles. It’s detachable. / You don’t need that. / I know I had the surgery— I’m just trying to protect us." If he could just take it off w/o any other consequence, she wouldn't hate it. It would be like his  watch or his bracelets that called the armour. *I'm so biased about this though*             

OH okay! thanks for the transcription! i was definitely too annoyed at the scene to pay proper attention to what they were saying lol

(............to be honest i think pepper hates all of iron man, or at least that’s how she feels to me in MCU)

I’m not sure I agree with that, because I think what the movie really shows is that there was no way for them to ever be ready? Tony prepared for 6 years while no one listened to him and he wasn’t ready. (Which is also why I hate that scene with Bruce in the beginning, because IT’S TONY! HE KNOWS THEY’RE COMING HE’S ALWAYS KNOWN FFS HE WOULD SPRING INTO ACTION IMMEDIATELY.)

And yeah, obviously the movie made a point of showing the Accords were bad, but IT MADE NO SENSE AT ALL, considering THAT WAS CLEARLY A SITUATION DESIGNED TO ALLOW FOR THE AVENGERS TO FIGHT, I MEAN, A LITERAL ALIEN INVASION OH M Y GOD.
