Slippy's mom has got it goin' on

Funny idea for the Surtr Explodes AU would be the Disney executives trying to capitalize on the “asgardians” being real and promptly getting cursed by seventeen different deities about it.

Contemporary writers try not to bring up the horse thing when providing examples of Loki being queercoded challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

Hot take but I think that Narcissus from Greek mythology was fully justified. If everyone in town kept hounding me for sex and would rather CALL DOWN THE GODS TO CURSE ME than take “no” for an answer, I’d be a fucking asshole, too.

Should I look for awful Norse mythology YA books to read?

Not to whack the hornet’s nest but if I had to pick a masculine Norse god whose gender I’d trans, I’d pick Heimdall over everyone else, even Loki.

From a cultural and historical perspective, I understand that the Æsir were worshipped as deities among the ancient Norsemen, but from a worldbuilding and classification standpoint, I feel like just glossing them as “the gods” doesn’t actually give an accurate impression of the kind of creature they were supposed to be in the stories themselves.

Alright, working on the refs. First ones up are the big three, being Loki, Óðinn and Þórr.
