Hi!
Do you remember how you got obsessed with Jalice? What was it that got you so intensely involved in them & twilight?
For example, when its comes to me, everything started with this one video edit on YT, and then I read STL and @flowerslut ‘s CotN, and ohmy its was the beginning of the end for me, lol) 12-old me watched Twilight and was like “meh”, 19 yo me read Jalice and was like “ooh”. And then, I uploaded tumblr because I wanted to follow you, and got sucked into Twilight Renaissance mayhem. So, yeah, “story of my life” as Rihanna’s song goes.
What about you?
❤️
OH, I actually know this one! Which is kind of weird for me, my fandom acquisition is usually very odd.
Rewind back to Twilight's release (I actually have the OG Twilight release with the Alice cover somewhere), I was 18-19 and was enriched for about 10 minutes and then realized that I actually found it a deeply flawed and unsatisfying story, but I already know that I was here for Alice and Jasper only (though I have a vivid memory of opening my brand new copy of New Moon outside the post-office and being delighted when I saw Emmett's name on the page. No other context for that memory except that I was horrified how much paperback copies of New Moon and Eclipse cost me).
I have the recollection of reading one specific Jalice fic back then that didn't really spark joy, but that was about the sum of my investment in the OG Twilight fandom.
My sister dragged me to the first movie, I cackled at how Carlisle looked like he'd been dowsed with powdered sugar, was highly disappointed in the costumes and Alice's story being cut out of the movie, and moved on with my life.
Fast forward to 2014. I was heavily into the MCU, and was pretty fucking invested in Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (the superior Marvel cartoon, fyi), and was pretty enriched by one Janet Van Dyne and her dynamic with Captain America. Sadly, the cartoon had been axed for a hot minute by then and the fic was pretty limited. I'd say there were 10? Which lasted me exactly half an hour.
I was also working an internship and a full-course load and would end up spiraling into a Majorly Depressed Girl Summer, so my nighttime thing was to collapse on my couch with my iPad, the remote, and an ice pack for my headache and just read fic. But I was out. I had no Janet/Steve fic left that I hadn't essentially memorized.
So what ship would give me the exact same vibes (smol and hyper, tall and stern)? That had a whole bunch of fic available?
Alice and Jasper were right fucking there.
Around this time (November 30, 2014) as well, ABC Kids decided to play Breaking Dawn which was the fucking *weirdest* combination. I have no idea what the American equivalent would be, tbh. But Breaking Dawn on ABC *Kids*? That was a goddamn joke in itself, so OF COURSE I watched it. And Part 2 when it played (Lee Pace was a welcome surprise, as was Rami Malek.)
And I was like, welp, let's just fucking *go*. I spent the summer reading every Jalice fic on FF.Net *eye-twitch* and then I started writing it because the initial vibes had fit my needs, but now I was invested in writing - specifically, human Alice/vampire Jasper. That genre is like crack to me, and I will do it a million times over and still be having a great time.

What if “No Way Home” had more “visitors” ?
So recently on my birthday, I went and watched No Way Home: More Fun Stuff. 
Anyways, it got me to remember a post I wanted to write but never got around too when No Way Home was first released. Since I had the free time to get to that, I thought I’d write them down here.
Tumblr media
As the title says, these would be my ideas for a No Way Home rewrite that involved more visitors. I’d write the fic myself, but I’m busy with multiple other WIP’s
Note: I bring up a Marvel/DC Crossover AU also shelved. The AU itself has nothing to do with these rewrites, but there was still a few things I thought was worth mentioning. I wrote one post about it here - though it’s a little out of date.
----
1. First things first; a commonality with this is that some characters almost project their feelings and relationships towards others multiversal counterparts. What I mean is, I found it a little odd that no one points out how the multiversal visitors knew one another's counterparts.
Like imagine if we got Raimiverse!Norman learning that there was an Oscorp in the Webbverse; maybe he'd ask about it to Connors and Dillon, and would learn from Connors about how Webbverse!Norman is the mastermind behind this conspiracy, but they both find Raimiverse!Norman to be a “step up” from the Norman they knew. 
Tumblr media
When the Goblin gets Connors and Dillon on his side, he'd say something along the lines of "You two already work for me, if you think about it. Consider this a promotion!" 
Meanwhile, Raimiverse!Octavious was acquainted with his universes Curt Connors', and he'd be a little taken aback by seeing Webbverse!Connors, how he works for Oscorp, how he became the Lizard. Connors would ask Octavious if his universes counterpart did the same; as far as Octavious knows, his world's Connors is still leading a successful career as a University Professor, even mentions Martha and Billy, which gets to Webbverse!Connors a little.
Later, we have a moment where it dawns on Toby's Peter that he's going up against an alternate version of one of his teachers. At the same time it dawns on Andrew's Peter that he's going up against an alternate version of the man who is directly or indirectly responsible for all the misery and mayhem in his life.
And finally, there's a bit where Flint Marko asks MCU!Peter a question, bringing up the uncomfortable subject of Uncle Ben. Marko remorsefully tells May and Peter that he killed Ben Parker in his universe. Peter admits that his Uncle Ben died when he was a younger kid, back in the MCU's 2007. "By this burglar" he doesn't remember. All Peter knows is that the burglar was arrested shortly after the fact. Marko apologizes, to which Peter replies "Don't worry. It's not your fault."
2. So Strange's spell pulls in people who knew Peter Parker was Spider-Man and/or died, right ? Well what if it didn't just extend to villains. Two people I'd like to see get pulled into the MCU would be TASM's George and Gwen Stacy. And Strange initially overlooks them in his search for "visitors" because they're too mundane.
Tumblr media
I'm just picturing this sequence where the Stacey's goes looking for their family in the MCU, same as Raimiverse!Norman. George goes to the NYPD precinct, where he is briefly arrested for identity theft of MCU's George, and impersonating a dead officer. It's soon discovered that the MCU's version of George Stacy was a small-time cop, who was killed along with the rest of his family during a home invasion, in the late 2000's (shortly before the events of Iron Man). 
When MCU!Peter meets Webbverse!Gwen and learns of George, he uses his pull with Happy to bail him out. Stacey's killer is presumed to be Mac Gargan after getting out on bail when MCU!George arrested him. But nothing concrete connects them - It's implied that cops on Gargan's payroll looked the other way and covered everything up - really shaking George's perception of "good cops" from his precinct.   When George is up to speed on this multiverse mess, he reunites with his Gwen. Gwen, being Gwen, opts to help Peter, Michelle and Ned find and capture the other villains. You'd almost think there'd be a forced or awkward love triangle with Gwen and Michelle, but no they're pretty chill. Though Gwen barely keeps herself back from projecting her feelings for her Peter onto MCU!Peter.
Furthermore, when Gwen reunites with her dad, she talks about her life after he passed, but keeps her continued relationship with her Peter a secret, especially when it led to her death. When George inevitably finds out about it, he almost loses it and almost takes it out on MCU!Peter before calming himself from it. 
My one issue is having Gwen (or George) be one of the visitors might nullify their tragedy. Especially if Andrew's Peter reunites with Gwen; suddenly his saving MJ loses its impact. 
...which is why I had another idea for Gwen, but that's for later.
3. Venom, being involved in the plot.
Now I get it, the Venom tease was the joke, but if they were to utilize this ? 
Tumblr media
What if two Eddie Brock's were brought into the MCU ? Because Spider-Man 3 has its Eddie Brock learning about Spider-Man's identity and he dies fighting him. So we got Tom Hardy's Eddie and Venom, as well as Topher Grace's loose in the MCU. Both reaching out to Peter Parker. To differentiate the two, Grace's Eddie is nicknamed "Junior", since he always introduced himself as "Eddie Brock Junior".
Tumblr media
While Hardy's Venom is still an Anti Hero, and his Eddie is considerably more friendly and empathetic towards Peter ? Grace's Eddie and Venom still play the villain role, and are portrayed as the only ones besides the Goblin who are completely irredeemable; being Kasady/Carnage in all but name. 
This way, we get a "Spider-Man + Venom Teamup", and a "Spiderman vs Venom" story at the same time; we get Grace's Venom as a better shot at being a villain; and we get "Chad and Virgin" comparisons between the two, as a semi-Take That to Ramiverse's take on the character.
We'd also get expanded on the symbiote's Multiversal Hive Mind. While Grace and Hardy's symbiote are not the same entity, they still have linked minds. The reason Hardy's Venom is fixated on Peter Parker ? He subconsciously remembers the events of Spider-Man 3, especially how Toby's Peter rejected and killed his alternate self. He acts like a "bitter ex" about it, but begrudgingly agrees to help Holland's Peter. It's also jokingly suggested that much of Hardy!Venom's personality was subconsciously influenced by "Emo Peter".
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile, Raimiverse!Eddie and Venom are the absolute kings of "projecting their feelings onto multiversal counterparts". He simply wants to kill MCU!Peter, because he's a Peter Parker. If Webbverse!Gwen Stacy is part of the story, he'd project his previous feelings and relationship with Raimiverse!Gwen onto her; and yes, it would be played as him being a creepy incel. By contrast, Hardy's Eddie and Venom are genuinely gentlemanly and affable towards Gwen (more on that later).
At one point, Raimiverse!Venom would seek out and try to kill MCU!Jameson on a live broadcast, out of the other Jameson firing him. Jameson would be saved by Hardy!Venom and Spider-Man working together. After which, Hardy's Eddie/Venom angrily reprimands and intimidates Jameson for doxing a kid, and his lack of integrity as a journalist, basically bullying Jameson into meekly apologizing on a broadcast.
Later, Hardy's Eddie takes Peter out for drinks (Peter: "I'm not twenty one." Venom: "Fine! You get nothing!"). We find out the SSU and the Webbverse are one and the same. Hardy's Eddie was hired by his world's Daily Bugle to dig up what he can on his world's Spider-Man. When he found out his identity, it was between the events of TASM 1 and 2, when Andrew's Peter was still seventeen. He kept Peter's identity a secret out of integrity.
Tumblr media
It also turns out Hardy's Eddie and Andrew's Peter (and Emma's Gwen) are casual acquaintances; in fact, they introduced Eddie and Anne. Venom feels a little jilted that Eddie kept this a secret from him, but gives it a pass because of the Anne thing.
Note: So about that DC/Marvel AU ? It's an MCU, Arrowverse, and DCEU world merger.
In this AU, a very similar scene occurs with Arrowverse!Kara doing the same in support of Peter; but as much as I love Kara (and Lena) being Mama Bears, it'd be more in character for Venom to pull this. Or hell, why not just have Eddie/Venom and Kara both have at it with Jameson.
4. This one's more for a joke.
I thought if Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock is in a movie where the multiverse is a thing - a movie that features Jon Faverau, no less ? - Why not Shout Out to 2003's Daredevil ?
Toby's Peter spends a few days going around the MCU, looking into things. He finds out about Nelson and Murdock Law Office, and their handling of the Mysterio case, and investigates them. Raimiverse!Peter has a quick encounter with Happy at these offices, but briefly mistakes him for Foggy (within earshot Henson's Foggy), before correcting himself.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The implication being that Daredevil 2003 is set in the Raimiverse, and that Toby's Peter is at least familiar with Affleck's Matt, and Faverau's Foggy. For those who don't know, there was a (non canon) animated series based off the Raimi films, in which Michael Clarke Duncan reprises his role as Wilson Fisk.
Note: I also had a similar joke for the Marvel/DC crossover AU. 
It would turn out members of Wayne Industries were involved in the Mysterio conspiracy (Wayne Industries often former Stark employee, and used the company's money and resources as part of the scheme). Affleck's Bruce Wayne, as well as Happy, end up attending a meeting with Charlie's Matt and Elden's Foggy to discuss this matter. 
Tumblr media
The joke was nothing more than "Hey, it's the old Matt and Foggy in the same room as the new ones!" 5. Harry Osborn.
When Norman is first wandering the MCU’s New York, he hears of a "Harry Osborn" being arrested for assaulting a security guard at the MCU’s Ravencroft. Norman rushes to the police station, introducing himself as Harry's father...only to find out that it's Dane DeHaan’s Harry, much to Norman’s confusion.
Tumblr media
DeHaan's Harry thinks Dafoe's Norman is some crazy homeless guy, and pushes him away. Harry ends up in jail since neither he nor Norman have the money to bail him out, but Peter and Happy use their pull to get Harry bailed out. Harry soon learns of the multiverse, that Raimiverse!Norman is an alternate version of his father, and that Raimiverse!Norman and Harry had a considerably more loving relationship.
Norman learns from Marko what his Harry was up to, and is horrified to hear of his death. He also learns of the Oscorp conspiracy of the Webbverse from Max, Connors, and Harry. All the while, the Green Goblin is pleased to hear that his Webbverse counterpart had an "empire" at his fingertips, and considers the Webbverse the next world to conquer after the MCU.
While Peter is working on trying to cure the villains, Norman makes an attempt to connect with Harry. Harry's a little taken aback because his father had little care for him, and it's clear that Norman is kind of projecting the other Harry onto him. It doesn't work as well as Norman hoped, especially when Harry brings up the ruthless streak he took before becoming his worlds Goblin, and even the murder of Gwen Stacy - all without the split personality of the Goblin.
Tumblr media
Norman is also put off to learn that this Harry was continuing his work from jail, and that he has no remorse for killing Gwen. The Green Goblin is pleased to hear that, thinking Webbverse!Harry makes for a worthy successor than his Harry. The Goblin slips through the cracks here and there and encourages Harry's ruthless streak, and uses "Norman" to give Harry validation that he's been seeking. They secretly work together to modify the Goblin serum with the spider venom in Harry's blood, which "Norman" takes for enhancements.
The Goblin would then leave Harry to die in the destruction of Happy's apartment; "Sorry kid. Gods don't need heirs." Harry would be rescued from the wreckage and begrudgingly conscripted into working on cures with the three Peter's; Andrew's Peter especially holding animosity towards him. Though the blow is lessened if he finds out Gwen was pulled into the MCU as well.
The part where I get iffy on if Franco's Harry should also be pulled into the MCU ? He knows Peter's identity and he died at the end of Spider-Man 3. And while I’d like to see Franco's and DeHaan's Harrys play off each other...at the same time I worry it nullifies Franco's send off in Spider-Man 3. I genuinely thought it was a decent end to his arc. And Norman returning to a world where his son has been dead for years adds to the tragedy of his character. 
Plus, what would Franco's Harry do that he already hasn't done in Spider-Man 3 ? Show up in the third act and help fight the other villains ? It'd be too redundant.
As for DeHaan's Harry ? He's get's the more bitter and tragic send off. He's pulled back into his universe, he's cured of his disease, but he's not really redeemed. But just when he thought he found a version of his father who cared about him, he's manipulated again, and is set to go back to jail, with nothing else to do but continue Oscorp's work from behind the bars. And it's not like he and Andrew's Peter reconcile; again, nothing short of Gwen being in the story would soften the blow. 
He's "fixed"...but he's still broken. 6. Alternate Gwen Stacey idea.
So one idea I had was Gwen being present throughout NWH, and as much as I like the idea of Gwen joining MCU!Peter, MJ and Ned...I'd feel it's nullify the impact her death still has on Andrew's Peter, and his saving MJ would be less of redeeming a past failure.
With that said, I had another idea involving Gwen, that could even work for a No Way Home sequel.
When the fabric of the multiverse begins to rip open, Strange does his memory wipe and closes off the multiverse, one straggler falls through. That would be Gwen, and since she's not from the MCU, the memory wipe has no effect on her. Since Gwen was one person, and considerably mundane, it was easy for Strange to overlook her.
Tumblr media
Initially displaced and confused, Gwen soon learns that it's 2023/4 in this world, and that superheroes, aliens and magic are common. To find her footing in this world, Gwen applies to Stark Industries, quickly getting into the same position she was at Oscorp, while looking into the Stacey family in the MCU. The same backstory is used; MCU!George Stacey was a small-time cop, who arrested Mac Gargan before he was released on parole; shortly after, the whole Stacey family was killed in a home invasion.
Furthermore, Gwen learns of this worlds Spider-Man's previous ties to The Avengers, and the Mysterio controversy; while no one remembers Peter himself, Mysterio's attempt to frame Spider-Man otherwise went the same; and as of the memory wipe, seemingly the only Avengers who knew Spider-Man's identity are either dead, or didn't interact with him long enough to remember him anyways. 
This would include Michelle and Ned, who have memories of Spider-Man, but the memories of Peter are blank, leaving gaps in their memory the more they think about it.
Tumblr media
Gwen eventually tracks down and reaches out to MCU's Peter. Peter's very reluctant to let her in, but he feels he needs someone to show he's not alone, though Gwen tells Peter she intends to return to her home. Peter is further reluctant considering that tampering with the multiverse got him into this mess in the first place. 
Even so, Gwen learns of Peter's old life and takes it upon herself to try to get it back on track, while trying to find her own way home. She tries to reintroduce Peter with Ned and MJ, despite Peter's resistance and reluctance. 
Would Gwen and MCU!Peter hook up ? Maybe ? It's a dynamic I wouldn't mind seeing, but I think the actual relationship would have an underlying toxicity. 
Peter accepts Gwen's company, but it's clear he's using her as an emotional crutch - and is still holding a torch for MJ - while Gwen is subconsciously projecting her relationship with her Peter onto his MCU counterpart. Not helping in that in her attempts to reconnect Peter with his old life, Gwen genuinely befriends Michelle and starts to feel guilty over this relationship; especially since she’s still trying to return home with Andrew’s Peter still out there..
I would think Gwen's arc would ultimately end with her returning to her world, but not before she gets Spider powers of her own. How ? I haven't thought through. One idea I had was that the memory spell is reversed just enough to punch a small hole into the multiverse, allowing her to slip through. This would lead to a Spider-Gwen solo film set in the SSU.
However, this rip in the multiverse leads to one universe bleeding into another; revealing the X-Men film series to be an adjacent universe; leading to a new big crossover event, and the MCU debuted of-
Tumblr media
Though if I’m being realistic ? I’m betting that No Way Home’s ending alone is what brings Wade to the MCU, but that’s a whole other post.
Back to the Marvel/DC crossover AU: I’ve also been wanting to do a post No Way Home story that features Peter ending up in Gotham (Post Zack Snyder’s Justice League and Post Bird’s of Prey). 
It would have involved Bruce looking into Mysterio conspiracy further, due to former Wayne employees being involved. He ends up investigating Spider-Man for his supposed involvement, while avoiding his mistakes in Batman V. Superman, while Peter continuously rejects Batman’s help as he’s still aiming for independence (he’s also aware of Batman’s rep from BVS).
I also never could decide on a villain.

i'm soot, my current main focuses are mcu ultron and eric from divergent, and i have written too many self-insert/savage opress (star wars) fics
in addition to self-shipping, this blog contains personal posts, finnish shit, judaism (i'm, eh, ~ yir'ei elokim for now) and the occasional finnish current events, but for the most part no heavy topics. tagging is inconsistent but i try to tag negativity as #negative.

... and then some?
i don't mind sharing. AUs and polycules exist. ✌️
this is a discourse free zone. i'm not here to promote infighting.
no dni, i'll just block if i don't jibe with someone's vibe. apply the same principle to me, ty. 👍
i'm not here to parent other ppl's kids, i'm not getting paid.
i don't look for dnis unless i'm interested in following. sorry?
i may draw sometimes. and once i wrote the following:

rare fictional friend: Nasti Kravinov, a very AU Ana Kravinoff
i also platonically have several emotions about Rocket Raccoon
not a BYF but a FYB (for your benefit)
dnf if you suspect your dni might apply to me. it's just awkward.
I request that people please tag unfilterable shipcourse DNIs in the post body. If it's performatively censored or just an image, it won't be caught by filtering. Ideally, the DNI should be in its simplest form: for example, "p.r0/c.*m-sh.ip go away" gets tagged #proship dni and an "antis dni" banner gets tagged #antis dni. #shipcourse mention or #shipcourse dni are also good options. Thanks, I appreciate it. 💖

hullomoon’s 2022 works: part four
it’s the end of the year, which means it’s time for a work round-up!  this year i really tipped into being podfic heavy (and more multifandom!). if you haven’t yet, check out my 2019 roundup, 2020 roundup, and 2021 roundup! all works are ordered in chronological posting order.
part one | part two | part three | part four | part five | part six | part seven | part eight
[podfic] what could i do (but follow your love) | Check Please! | nurseydex | Mature | 02:48:25
It starts, for Derek at least, in the front seat of his car.
He’s not sure where it starts for Dex, but it had to have started somewhere. Derek assumes it’s been a long time coming for Dex.
Why else would Dex lean across the console to press a kiss to Derek’s mouth, like it’s the easiest thing in the world to do?
[podfic] Eternity | the adventure zone | lup & taako; blupjeans | 03:45
A glimpse of Lup’s time spent in the Umbrastaff.
[Filk] Cake by the Ocean | our flag means death | gen | multivoice | 03:38
A filk about a great party
a flan recipe | original work | mature | 04:32
a sultry/dramatic reading of a flan recipe
[Podfic] Mayhem: The Chitauri Invasion | mcu and allstate ‘mayhem’ commericals | multivoice | 16:29
Audio Commercials: Just imagine what insurance would have to cover in the MCU. Then imagine Mayhem trying to sell it to you.
[Filk] We Don’t Talk About Lucius | our flag means death | gen | multivoice | 03:49
A new crew member thinks they have a stowaway. The crew of the Revenge let him know what’s up.
Hello! - A Filk about Blanket Permission | multivoice | 02:58
This is a filk about requesting authors post a blanket permission statement, set to the tune of Hello! from Book of Mormon.
[Noun] Never Says [Verb] | multifandom | multivoice | 16:00
A series of madlib style stories.
slow and sure | Schitt’s Creek | Twyla & David | ~1k | 6:12
David and Twyla bond over painting
through the airwaves | Schitt’s Creek | Alexis/Twyla | multivoice | mature | 22:57
This is kind of a departure for me, the author wrote in the opening notes. I don’t usually write shippy stuff for Charlotte, but the other day I thought, what better way than fic to explore wanting to hook up with a guy but not being able to go through it because you’re maybe interested in your friend, instead? Maybe that’s TMI 😌
 “Ooh,” Alexis says to herself, intrigued. Her earbuds are in within minutes, and soon the podfic starts to play.
When Alexis lands in Schitt's Creek, she turns to fanfiction and podfic to get through it. She just never expects to hear Twyla reading fic...

8 and 13?
8. Talk about any friends/connections you've made as a fic writer.
Wow, I have friends from as far back as my first widely published story on FanFiction.net (including you, my friend), which was a Sky High epic (War and Peace In Mind), some folks who came over from LiveJournal when I was doing Heroes, Sherlock, and Supernatural that I'm still in contact with, and a number I've become friends with through the MCU and other fandoms over the years here on Tumblr. Some I've met through Big Bangs (reverse and otherwise), others through Dreamwidth and Discord (my Hydra Trash Party peeps), some through various charity auctions where we've stayed in touch (whether I was the buyer or the seller). Lots of great folks!
13. Describe your writing style. If you were to participate in an anonymous fic writers guessing game (like The Masked Author), what writing habits do you have that would be a dead giveaway that it's you?
Hmm, I tend to like some particular tropes (tentacle fic is rather niche), but I also am a big fan of fairy tales and frequently use those as a framework in some of my stories.

Answering @rubynye from Fanfiction Ask Meme:
M: What's the weirdest AU scenario you've ever come up with? Did you turn it into a story?
Hmm, came up with a wings!AU for a Heroes fanfiction, where Luke was experimented on to grow wings. Sylar rescued him and had to act as a sort of mama bird to Luke. It was one of those stories that came to mind complete with a whole plot and even a title, which was very considerate of my brain. Hatchling
And I did a male lactation story for MCU, which is on the odder end of things. (Steve gets a rack, courtesy of Hydra experiments, and chooses to use them for good.) ...For All He's Worth
I think those are two of the weirder ones I've done. 😁

Hey! A million years ago, I was a huge fan of your Heroes fic on Livejournal. With everything that's going on with Russia, I hear we'll be losing access to LJ pretty soon, and I see that a lot of your fics were never transferred to AO3. Is there any chance you'll move them over to the archive or another platform to be preserved?
Ack, yes, I probably will be doing that tonight! But if all else fails, I do have all of my fics backed up on my hard drive. Thanks much for reminding me, and I'm glad you liked my fics!

*slides into your DMs* I hear you loved David the Gnome as a kid and frankly I am DELIGHTED to finally find another soul who both remembers and loves that show. I just rewatched the series last year and a: it is way heavier than I remember when I was like 3 and b: it SLAPS frankly. Ages excellently. A+ for excellent taste in childrens shows.
Oh heavens yes! I watched David the Gnome in elementary school (ages 8-12), and many years later found and bought the book The Secret Book of Gnomes by Wil Huygen, on which the series is based. And the book does have some of those heavy themes in it. The illustrations are truly amazing!

Mayhem Times Infinity
Part Two: Multiverse Mayhem
Pairing: Loki Laufeyson x fem!reader (enemies reluctant co-workers to lovers)
Rating: 18+
Warnings: cw mentions of death, gore, trauma; the snap, violence, comic mischief, language
Word Count: 4k
Summary: The duo finds out what odds they're up against, but Loki has other plans.
A/N: Hey babes! I couldn't help but put in the work ASAP on this one. Gotta chase that hyper-fixation high. I'm ready to move into the "will they" part of this story! Sorry, for that slow burn, guys. Also, this doesn't necessarily join up at all with the series, but I threw a little nod in there, a little Professor Loki at the end. Enjoy 💕
Masterlist | Part One | Part Three
Let me know if you'd like to be tagged :)
“So, to summarize,” Loki drawled. “This is Earth-616, and it’s in danger.” Doctor Strange groaned, but nodded. Four hours. You had been listening to Doctor Strange for four hours. He had detailed the Multiverses, interdimensional travel, sling rings, all-powerful creatures more heinous than Thanos, and the ultimate demise of Earth-616--your Earth, your universe--and all Loki could do was joke.
You were reeling. Sure, you had considered the idea of other dimensions. You gulped as you tried to wrap your head around the gravity of the situation. There was a Multiverse jumper, Strange had given you all the information he could about the existence of multiverses and the area the villain was from, but couldn’t be more specific.
“Sure, in short. Now, listen, we don’t know who exactly is doing this. It would seem they’re working for Kang or Gah Lak Tus, but we aren’t certain of anything. We’re sending you for reconnaissance. Find out anything you can.”
“Yes, but why us? Why not the Guardians with Thor?” You asked. The tea in your hands too cold to enjoy, but you took a small sip anyway. You pulled a small face, and lowered the small cup again.
“They’re busy.” Strange told you without preamble.
“Well, so are we. He was just resurrected, and I’m technically homeless right now.” You argued, lifting the cup again, and taking another sip. The now pleasantly warm liquid tasted much better than it had even when you poured it. You raised an eyebrow at Loki, wondering if it was his magic, but he was looking at Strange, a small smirk on his lips.
“Then it should be less of a discussion. You’ll need to travel light, and neither of you are otherwise entangled. Now, do you recall our conversation of sling rings?” You nodded, and yelped when a thick bar ring appeared on your hand.
“I just focus?”
“Yes, visualize, focus and see the destination. Look beyond what you see. You know how to do that. This is the only way you’ll be able to travel through the multiverse, and I only have the one. You’ll have to travel together.”
“Okay. What about the Negative Zone?” You asked, your hand weighed down by the new accessory. The physical weight was negligible, but the mental weight left you straining.
“Start there. Remember Earth-616 is yours. Though it is unlikely anyone will refer to them as their numerical filing. What’s your job?” Strange asked, and you huffed, annoyed.
“Gather intel. We can handle it.” You snapped, and he lifted his hand.
Suddenly, a golden ring appeared before you, and on the other side an empty field.
“Go on, then.” Strange challenged, and you shot him a look, but walked through the portal.
You felt the portal close behind you, the energy rippling shut.
“That was strange.” Loki murmured, smoothing his leather jacket down. Without thinking, without pause, you replied.
“Doctor Strange.”
“That is not a good joke, darling.” Your eyebrows shot up.
“First, it definitely is. Second, ‘darling,’?” You asked.
“I told you, I refuse to call you ‘Stone,’ and you haven’t supplied anything else.” Loki argued, and began walking through the field. The grass, untouched, reached far up his long legs engulfing his waist, and you tried to pull your attention away from how he looked surrounded by the golden strands.
Celestial. God-like, you thought as you failed.
“Well, perhaps we should focus on the mission instead.” You cleared your throat as you walked to him. You tried to ignore how you had to incline your head to see him, failing again as you took in the height difference.
“Yes. I was thinking, we should perhaps change our clothes to fit in.” Loki mused, and you nodded.
“Good idea. Where are we?” You asked. It looked...vaguely Earth-like.
“How should I know? Aren’t you the one blessed with infinite knowledge?” He grumbled. You rubbed your palm down your face, and tried to perceive your location.
“I got nothing, Mayhem.” You mused, and began walking again.
“Casual linens, then?” Loki inquired, a ghost of a smile on his lips. You shrugged, and before you had relaxed your shoulders back down, you were draped in a dark green gown. You rolled your eyes at Loki’s shit-eating grin.
“Subtle.” You told him, gesturing down. He held his hands out in a shrug, and you laughed. He had matched his own ‘casual’ clothes in the same deep shade of green. You expected another jab, but instead he started walking away from you, and didn't break pace to see if you were coming. You jogged to catch him.
"Where are you going?" You asked, slightly out of breath. You were only just realizing how much taller he was than you. His long legs had carried him swiftly away from you in no time.
"Anywhere I please." He told you, barely looking down, but you could see his lips lifted in a smirk all the same.
"What do you mean?" You asked, looking around, wondering what destination he meant.
"Norns, woman, are you daft? I'm leaving. I'm free, finally. A better question for you would be: where are you going? Hmm? All that time on Midgard, now you're in space, darling. Where are you going to go?" He had broken stride to sneer down at you. You tried to hide your obvious shock at the sudden turn of emotion.
"To find the threat against our Galaxy. Why wouldn't you want to do the same?" You asked, malice lacing your tone. Here he was, wearing his true colors finally. The treacherous Loki, the one you'd been told about, the one you should've heeded the warnings about.
His nose crinkled in disgust, and you felt the vision coming before it hit. You'd seen this one a few times already, but nothing prepared you for it. You gasped for air as you felt Loki's throat being constricted, and winced when you felt the crunch of his neck.
His smug look told you he'd made that happen.
"I have a few reasons." He told you, his voice quiet and dangerous.
"We were chosen for a reason, Loki." You tried, grasping for any shred of logic that might convince him to stay. Treacherous or not, he had much more experience in space than you.
"Yes, we were. Isn't it obvious to you, yet? We were sent here to die." He held his arms out and gestured around at the field.
"What do you mean? It's just recon." You replied, noting his wingspan, the subtle way his lithe muscles pulled taut the fabric of his shirt.
"Oh yes, truly the omnipotent Dr. Strange would send a known liar and the newest avenger to stop a doom to the universe." He rolled his eyes and began walking away from you. You watched his hands trail lightly over the blades of grass, and knew he was right. You hated him for it, but he was. You had been pushing those feelings down since you had first found yourself in space looking at Loki. If this truly had the gravity Dr. Strange said it had, why wasn't he here? Or anyone of the other space faring avengers, or the guardians? Why were you sent here with Loki of all people?
You followed behind him, the grass reaching much higher on you, and contemplated your choices. You had the sling rings, so the options were endless. Yet, you kept coming back to the same one: do the job. Every fiber of your being told you Loki was right, but a small voice in the back of your mind told you he could be wrong. And it was enough.
You glanced up at your companion, his black hair curling at the edges of his collar, his back straight and proud, his shoulders broad and capable. He could handle himself in a fight, this much you knew. He'd be an asset. How would you convince him to stay? Trick him? Trick the God of Mischief? Surely you weren't dumb enough to try.
You threw your head back and looked at the sky. You knew you were. You knew you had to. You needed his help, but more than that, you actually wanted it. He was charming, after all.
"So, where exactly are you going, then?" You asked, breaking the steady silence. You watched his stride falter for a second as he turned to look at you.
"To the town." He told you, confidently.
"So, you do know where we are?"
"No."
"Then how would you know?" You challenged him.
"There'll be a town, eventually." He told you, clearly agitated at your questions.
"Sorry, just working out a few things." You told him, keeping your gaze averted. His eyes narrowed in suspicion.
You kept your face passive as the wave of wariness washed over you. You had thrown your plan together in about three seconds, but already it was going perfectly.
Step one: make Loki suspicious. It was easy to do. He had no real reason to trust you. Plus, he had to be expecting it anyway.
It led to the rest of your plan. He’d “uncover” your deceit, and you’d go along acting caught in a lie. Then, you’d gain his trust for real. Finally, you trick him into actually helping you do some reconnaissance for Strange.
Easy peasy.
Now, just to find this town.
I’ll be damned.” You muttered when you first saw it.  A light cascading in the sky, not the stars that littered it currently, but a new one. A man made, or alien made, one.
“Aha!” Loki called, looking at you expectantly.
“You did it!” You laughed, peering through the trees that stood between you and the source. Failing that, you reached out with your mind. No one was lingering about, so you focused on Loki. It was a mixture of joy and trepidation. It was all bitter endings.
He was planning a betrayal of his own, of course. What you couldn’t piece together is why he was feeling hesitant to do it. Clearly, he had worked out a way to get off-world.
“Perhaps we should make camp here.” He suggested, turning his steady gaze to you. You looked around, considering it. More open than the forest, but that could be helpful in a fight. Unlikely anyone would be able to sneak up on either of you. Especially if you took turns sleeping. But, didn’t you just feel his looming betrayal? Should you risk it so soon? You needed sleep. Would he leave you alone, asleep, in a field on an alien planet? Surely not. But could you trust it? Did you trust him?
“Okay, Mayhem. I’ll grab some firewood.” You told him, starting to head to the edge of the woods. He chuckled, and you heard the whoosh of a flame. You turned and your mouth fell open. He had conjured an entire campsite. The fire was contained within a stone structure, there was a clearing to sit, he’d even managed a few blankets.
"Surely this will suffice." He teased, a grin ghosting on his lips. You nodded, lamely, and grabbed a blanket.
"Can you be troubled with dinner?" You joked, and he raised an eyebrow at you.
"What do you want?" He asked, settling down onto the ground, long legs stretched before him.
"Oh I don't know, what's your favorite thing?" You mused, snuggling under the thick material. It was softer than cotton or wool, warm but not hot, heavy enough to provide weight without being unbearable. You closed your eyes, enjoying the feeling against your skin, and nearly dozed. He startled you when he began speaking.
"The perfect night-meal is a sampling of delicacies. But the most exquisite taste is fresh champagne from the springs on Alfheim. Poured lazily by the Pleasure Elves, of course." You laughed.
"Pleasure Elves and champagne springs, what the hell are we still doing here?" He chuckled and adjusted the blanket around his shoulders, before looking at you seriously.
"I will show you Alfheim, if you wish." You resisted shuddering under his intense gaze. You could barely meet his eyes, a deep, dark green that rivaled the evening forest.
"I'd like that, someday. For now, dinner. Can you do...pizza?" You asked, smiling broadly. He frowned, clearly disgusted.
"I could, but I would not. Is that truly what you crave? Greasy, unimaginative mortal food?" You shrugged. "Very well." With a flick of his wrist, he brought forth two wrapped sandwiches. Curious, you pulled the wrapper off and smiled happily.
"A cheeseburger! How is that better than pizza?" You asked, laughing and taking a bite. You watched him peel the wrapper with grace, only touching the burger with his fingertips.
"I'm not sure. Thor described them much better than they appear." He seemed vaguely disgusted.
"We could have had alien food." You told him, laughing at his discomfort. He rolled his eyes at you.
"Technically, darling, you're the alien here." His matter-of-fact tone wrecked your mood. The way he said "darling" was more like an insult. How could he conjure burgers and then ruin the moment so seamlessly.
You didn't respond, just silently tucked into your sandwich. You still needed to work out how you were going to break his trust anyway. It couldn't be too clever, you thought. Just clever enough that it seemed like it would work, but not clever enough that he would suspect another attempt.
You were so lost in thought that you didn't see the way he studied you, mapping your face, reveling in how the starlight splayed shadows on you. He had put you in green as a joke, but lounging fireside under the thick blanket, you looked at home in the deep shade of mid-summer forest green.
You finished the burger and tossed the wrapper remains into the fire. You turned to find Loki already looking at you, he lifted a corner of his mouth but remained silent.
"I'll take first watch." You told him, hiding a yawn behind your hand. He waved you off with a flick of his wrist.
"Sleep. I'll watch over you." He watched you as he spoke, and you felt his dark eyes on you as you snuggled your way into the blanket nest. The fatigue from the battle with Thanos, and the rush of adrenaline from finding Loki and talking with Dr. Strange, and the long walk through the field came crashing into you all at once. Your eyes closed of their own Accord, and your limbs followed soon after tingling with sleep.
"G'night, Mayhem." You mumbled, your mouth and brain mostly asleep. You were drifting off, even as you said it, but you heard his response.
"Good night, darling." You smiled as you fell further asleep, his tone softer than it had been.
As sleep began to take you under, quieter than before, you heard Loki mumble to himself.
"Damn. She's adorable." When you awoke, you wouldn't remember, as it were, you barely heard it at all. Proof, you thought dreamily. It was proof, that Loki wasn't all bad.
~~
You blinked hard against the morning light and groaned as you rolled over. You remembered where you were quickly, the hard ground your first clue. The event of the previous day hit you at once, and you sat up quickly, scanning for Loki. You started to panic, he had slipped off during the night, and now you were alone on an unfamiliar world.
“Shit.” You cursed, rising to your feet.
“What?” You whirled on the voice and sighed deeply when you saw the God of Mischief staring back at you.
“I...thought you left.” You admitted, stretching your back out. His smile faltered a bit.
“I did not. I found breakfast.” He told you, tossing you something that looked like an apple. You smiled sheepishly.
“You didn’t wake me.” You said, and he merely shrugged. “You haven’t slept.” You continued, unsatisfied with his nonchalance.
“I was dead yesterday, darling. I think I can manage without one night’s rest.” You winced at his nickname for you. It dripped with venom and mistrust.
“Don’t act offended, Mayhem. Betrayal is literally your middle name.”
“What do you know of betrayal? Hmm?”
“Plenty. You may have cornered the market, but you didn’t trademark it.”
“I would not simply slink away in the dead of night. I am Loki, prince of Asgard, the rightful king of Jotunheim, and the God of Mischief, and I do not lurk in the shadows. My betrayal would be right in front of you, rest assured.” You scoffed, as you watched him pontificate.
“What do your titles get you here?” You asked and smiled in triumph when his face fell. You turned the fruit over in your hand, and looked back at him. “I’m sorry I thought you left, thanks for the fruit.” You mumbled, guilt already eating away at you. Why did his crestfallen face split you in two so quickly? You bit into the apple, and winced right away. It definitely wasn’t an apple. The texture was similar to a kiwi, but the flavor was unlike anything you’d ever had.
“It’s a local fruit, not one I’m familiar with.” He explained, his voice tight. “It isn’t dangerous.” You furrowed your brow to object, but he held his hands up. “I had one already to test it.”
“Thank you, Mayhem.” You told him, genuinely thankful. He waved the campsite away, and the two of you began your trek through the dense forest. The dark green clothes helped camouflage you as you picked your way through the vegetation, and while you knew he had done it to get a rise out of you, you were thankful to be out of the clingy spandex uniform you normally wore.
You had been training with Nat when the first power surge flowed through your fingertips, and the blast produced was golden. Nat must have alerted Tony, because within the hour you had a brand new, golden suit. You looked like an asshole, flying around in a shimmery gold suit, but no one would change it. Friday had told you to “Fuck off,” and that was the end of it. You’d become the Golden Avenger in the news, but everyone called you stone. It was a horrible joke, born out of horrible circumstances. You looked like a walking gauntlet, and you were treated that way too.
You focused harder on the ground, stepping around massive root systems, and avoiding areas where the ground had sunk into itself. Loki was right. You hated that you were thinking about it now. No one had truly accepted you as an avenger, except Nat. It was hard for them, you understood. The thing that gave you power was the same event that had destroyed them. But, it isn’t like you wanted it. You hadn’t asked Thanos to do this, you didn’t have control over the events that led to your origin. Yet, the first chance they got, they sent you away. You were the outlier, you were the uncertainty, and you were safer kept at arm's distance. Why else send you on an obvious goose chase with a wanted intergalactic villain?
You glanced at your traveling companion, and found him deep in thought as well. His brow was creased, and his mouth was set. He looked handsome, bathed in the filtered sunlight and the flecks of gold illuminated his dark features. He flicked his eyes at you, and relaxed his mouth into a small smile.
“Shouldn’t be long now.” He told you quietly, and you found yourself wondering what he was thinking about. His double-cross to you? You needed to hammer your own plan together, but it could wait, you thought. You didn’t want to think too hard about it.
“Good, it’ll be nice to get a real seat,” You laughed and he smirked at you. “Is Alfheim your favorite place?” You asked, thinking about the pleasure elves, you could see the appeal. He cocked his head to the side, a ghost of a real smile playing on his lips.
“No, Asgard was my favorite place.” He murmured, and you wanted to disappear. Of course, his world was just destroyed, what a dumb question.
“Sorry Mayhem, I didn’t think…” Your apology died on your tongue, as he began chuckling.
“Don’t fret, darling. I’m not that fragile.” He teased. Your heart was firmly lodged in your throat, stuck from embarrassment, but remaining still as you realized he had softened your nickname. No longer did your skin crawl, instead, a warmth spread through your chest. His soft tone had rendered you speechless, dumbfounded, but you hoped he wouldn’t notice. What could you say? I was embarrassed at having brought up a potentially sensitive subject, and then you called me a flirty name and now my tongue is heavy. Why would it even matter? You were going to betray him, and then he would betray you. It was what your master plan was hinged on. Who cared if he was soft and pretty?
“Truly, it is not an issue.” He continued, confused, searching your face.
“Tell me about it?” You managed to squeak out, and you caught the look he gave you, the look of skepticism.
“It was a Golden City, built up in the mountains, and the rainbow bridge connected it to the bifrost. It was devastatingly beautiful. That was only the Palace, though. The forests around the city were as cruel as they were beautiful. It truly was a world fit for gods.” He looked wistful, and you pretended not to see the tears welling up. “Where is your favorite place?” He asked abruptly, and you smiled happily.
“You remember that place I took you yesterday, when I plucked you from the debris in space?” You asked, waiting for an answer. When he nodded, you continued. “It was my attempt at freedom. I had just broken up with a man who controlled me, and well, it was a little crappy, but it was mine, y’know? I had just gotten back in touch with my family who I had been cut off from, and it was so right. I was only there for a few months before Thanos’ attack.” You told him, fiddling with your sleeve, swallowing hard. “It was the first taste of happiness I had, and then it was taken from me just as suddenly as I had gotten it.” You wiped your eyes and cleared your throat.
“I know a great deal about that, darling.” He reassured you, and you were surprised to feel the pressure of his hand on your back. You gave him a tight small, and felt the smallest tendrils of affection reaching out to you. You widened your smile and turned to the forest before you.
“What’s your favorite power, then?” You asked, falling in step beside him. He laughed.
“Power?” He asked, and you rolled your eyes.
“Yes, your powers?” You wiggled your fingers, knowing he’d never done anything like that.
“It’s magic, darling.” He rolled his eyes at you, but you could tell it was playful.
“Whatever, your magic. What’s your favorite spell?” He chuckled at you.
“Duplication-casting, then.” You raised an eyebrow.
“What’s that? Conjuring?”
“They’re two completely different powers.” He explained with a long, suffering sigh.
“So, they are “powers” now?” You asked, laughing.
“Norns, you are so aggravating.” He huffed.
“Well, why duplication-casting? Why not the poison one?” You asked. He raised an eyebrow.
“What poison one?” He asked, looking confused.
“You can have poison without it hurting you.” You told him plainly.
“No, I cannot.” He was genuinely confused at this point, and you held your hands up.
“But you tested the fruit for me.” You told him, confused. He blinked slowly at you, and your face fell in realization. He had been protecting you. And immediately you treated him like a monster.
“Mayhem, I’m…” He fixed his lips into a small line. You were trying to form an apology, clearly you were the one deserving the monster treatment. You had actively plotted against him since you had landed, and he had done nothing but try to make you comfortable. He raised a finger to his lips, his face hard. You heard it then, the crunching of leaves and splintering of sticks underfoot. You were no longer alone with the God of Mischief.

Favorite color: Navy blue with white polka dots (or purple)
Currently reading: I JUST finished an immaculate book called "To Marry and To Meddle" by Martha Waters and I cannot recommend that book/series enough, it's like an even funnier Bridgerton full of my favorite romantic tropes. I'm about to start "A Lady's Guide to Mischief and Mayhem" by Manda Collins so I'll see if it's good
Last song: right now I'm listening to a Rick Flag enemies to lovers playlist I found on spotify (DON'T JUDGE ME) and the song that just came on is "Can't Sleep" by K.Flay
Last series: I'm part way through season two of The Killing, which I am watching specifically just for Joel Kinnaman because I love him even if this character/show is giving me so many different and complex feelings.
Last movie: Last new movie I watched was The Lost City but the most recent film I've seen was when I rewatched The Suicide Squad so I could stare at Joel Kinnaman
Sweet, spicy, or savory: SWEET
Coffee or tea: Either one as long as it's drowning in cream and sugar
Three ships: bruv usually I just ship myself with the characters lmao but Druig x Makkari (Eternals/MCU), Buddie (9-1-1), and Faramir x Eowyn (Lord of the Rings) come to mind as ships I've recently thought about
First ever ship: probably Aurora x Phillip in Sleeping Beauty, that shit was my DRUG as a child but like the first ship that I was like a tumblr-level stan of was probably destiel from supernatural
Currently working on: chapter 5 of Lose You Too (I swear I'll get it done, I just have such a hard time writing fluff compared to smut and angst lmao)
Favorite piece of clothing: My Joe Mazzello/D-Backs jersey from the movie Undrafted, it's so comfy, I love sleeping in it
Comfort food: sushi, panda express, or wendys depending on what level of comfort I need and what mood I'm in
Favorite time of year: honestly probably october because it's my birthday month and halloween and stuff
Favorite fanfiction: It's hard to pick a favorite so I'll pick a favorite from each of my favorite fic authors, (consider this a Jo's fic recs lol) I am OBSESSED with "The Princess and the Vigilante" series by @theowritesstuff, "The Babysitter Saga" by @klmurr, the "Stockholm Syndrome" series by @missemimori, "So Like Porcelain" by @honeycombstrawberry, pretty much anything @loverhymeswith has written for Takeshi but especially "Home", "Life to Come" by @damnedparker, "Kill of the Night" by @babblydrabbly, "Eternity" by @a-reader-and-a-writer, "Yes Sir" by @lunaticsandidiots, "Window Repair" by @neptuneswritingwork, and "Stress Relief" by @lacontroller1991 (guys there's so many more I'm exercising sooo much restraint right now)
No pressure tags for peeps I would like to get to know better: everyone I tagged in the fanfiction section and @rishlurh, @all-the-things-i-done, @chaseadrian, @allourstarsareshinning, @likedovesinthewnd
