Norse mythology fails to convey the sense of terror that must have hung over Asgard every time Loki was gone for longer than eight months and three weeks
#okay but imagine the betting pool#is it gonna be half undead?#horse with too many legs?#a giant fuck off snake?#who knows! ( @much-ado-about-mothing)
Loki, holding up the newest baby Lion King-style: IT’S!!!!! A WOLF!!!”
underneath the rock: *dozens of creatures from all over Nine Realms muttering quietly, exchanging money*

Idunn, reading Loki’s latest birth announcement: Loki is having a party tonight for his new son, Vali
Thor: You mean, giant snake?
Idunn: No, it just says son.
Freya: Certainly you mean his new foal.
Odin: Or his pup?
Tyr: Half-corpse child?
Idunn: Just…son.
Odin: That’s just weird.
Frigg: *smirking and counting her winnings*
This is valid and also Loki sitting the twins down when they’re older like: “You won’t bring about the end of this world but pls always remember that I still love you!” 🙂
