Complete, First published Apr 28, 2019
In a galaxy where Infinity War happened about forty years before it was supposed to, Thanos rules the remaining population with his Infinity Gauntlet. And to celebrate the Balance he has brought to the universe, as well as his defeat over the rebel uprising that followed his victory, an annual Contest is hosted where two contenders, a male and a female, are chosen from each of the districts. They must participate in a fight to the death for the honor of the everlasting Balance, where only one can triumph above the others.

When Loki becomes a contender in the Contest, he is determined to do whatever it takes to win and fulfill his promise to his best friend. But to win, he will have to decide who he really is, who his allies are, and if he can even trust the advice of his enigmatic and seemingly hypocritical mentor.

Winning means preserving the Balance.

Losing means joining the Fallen.

I rip my hand away, fumbling for my bow. The arrow trembles between my fingers. One shot-one call-and the cell would drop him 30,000 feet. But I can't let go. Tears sting my eyes. My arms shake from the effort of holding the string back. "Do I know you, Loki Laufeyson?! Is there a reason I can't seem to kill you?!" He takes a step back, pain flashing through his features. "No," he says softly. "You don't know me. You just... remind me of someone I once knew." "Who?" I whisper. "She was my everything," he says, voice breaking. "But she was taken from me. Lost. I was told I'd find her again, but now..." His head drops. "Now I fear she's gone forever." My throat closes. "Can you tell me about her?" "There's nothing to tell," he murmurs. "Only that I swore to love and protect her-for eternity." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Asgard - a realm of eternal splendor, where golden towers kiss the sky and the Nine Realms thrive under the watchful gaze of the Allfather, Odin. Here, gods and immortals live among rivers of light and endless beauty, their faith sustaining the balance between worlds. Across every realm, belief takes many forms - science, spirit, myth - yet all trace back to one truth: life itself waits, dormant, in the deepest heart of the forest. A force older than creation, sleeping until destiny calls it to rise. But when the young God of Mischief stumbles upon that divine power, the awakening does not bring salvation. It brings chaos. What begins as a spark of curiosity turns into a storm of pain, sorrow, and love. Phase one needs some serious editing and expansion. However I want to finish a good chunk of my story before I do so. This story will not have very long lasting "happy" moments. It has angst tagged for a reason.

Puzzle of a Chosen Trickster by Taboojinx
28 parts Complete Mature
After Thanos snaps half of the universe out of existence, Tony is grieving but his brain still won't stop asking questions. Like why on Earth did Loki leave Thor a stone covered in runes that looks suspiciously like a puzzle? He soon finds out that inside that little puzzle, the God of Lies left behind the truth. Along with his plan and the fact that his death is anything but permanent. ------------------- Marvel owns the characters. I did not make the art on the cover but I did make the cover itself. I don't own any of the art or music that may be featured. I own the writing. Please do not copy or post to another site or app. Warning! Temporary character death (spoiler), and very canon divergent. Also, sorry for any mistakes with Infinity War and End Game, but I genuinely think I blocked the movies out of my memory because all I remember is my favorite characters dying. :( Some of the differences are on purpose though because I didn't like a lot about the movies. This is my fifth published story. (July 2 2020 (I think anyways, the date on the published mark keeps changing)) (Made before the Loki series) Mature for canon-typical violence and gore. Frostiron/Ironfrost (Tony+Loki) (mostly implied and at the end) Some notable hashtag achievements (thank you all so much for the support!): -#1 in marvel (Sep 15, 2021) -#1 in alternaterealities (Sep 15, 2021) -#1 in frostiron (May 22, 2022)(again on March 8, 2025)(again on October 15, 2025) -#1 in lokifriggason (June 23, 2022) -#1 in hela (July 2, 2022) -#1 in ironfrost (October 13, 2022) -#29 in loki (September 17, 2025) Hit 20k reads on June 12, 2022! Thank you so much! Hit 25k on October 15, 2022! Thank you again! Hit 40k on May 4, 2024! I'm in awe, thank you so much! Hit 45k on October 17, 2024!

Two of A Kind by AJK_ForFun
12 parts Complete Mature
In this alternate universe, Loki is sent to Midgard after the fight over the Aether. The Avengers question the Allfather's sanity, but agree they would rather have Loki where they can keep an eye on him. So, after some extensive remodeling, the Avengers Tower and neighboring facilities are now an extensive training ground with everything they'll need to reform the once proud Asgardian prince. Thor is hopeful. He wants the brother he thought Loki was back. Clint (Hawkeye) is waiting for a reason to exact some much deserved revenge. Steve (Captain America) has hope that even the most hardened of evil doers can be changed for the better. No one quite knows what Natasha (Black Widow) is thinking. Tony (Iron Man) resents having to share his tower with a psychopath. Bruce (Hulk) did not fly away to Sakar. He's brooding away in his own private wing. Scott (Antman) is under house arrest... at the tower. Wanda (Scarlet Witch) is still mourning her brother while nurturing a still very naive Vision. (Neither are living in the tower. Will only play small, fleeting parts in this story.) Dr Strange refuses to move into the tower. After all, it is more important to keep up with his work at the Sanctum. Peter (Spiderman) is spending his summer at the Tower, much to the dismay of Aunt May, who knows how dangerous this is, but does not know Loki has returned. Sam (Falcon) will follow Cap to the ends of the earth, but refuses to jump off the proverbial bridge just because Cap's doing it. Bucky (Winter Soldier) is trying to atone for his past misdeeds, while learning what exactly they were, but is living in Wakanda with T-challa (Black Panther) so neither will be playing a large role in this story. Then there's Aite. She's new. She's the Greek goddess of mischief, delusion, folly, and ruin. You'd think her and Loki would be the best of friends... Not so much.
Asgardian Twilight by LuminousAvenger
40 parts Complete Mature
Thor Odinson has once again restored peace to the nine realms and eliminated the threat of Ragnarok, effectively saving his world. This should be cause for celebration but all is not right on Asgard during his absence. When he digs deeper, Thor discovers that Loki lives and has been masquerading as Odin for some time now. In an effort to recover the king, both Thor and Loki travel to earth in time to learn a startling revelation- Thor is not Odin's firstborn. That title belongs to Hela, the goddess of death, and she has returned to claim the nine realms, promising to drench all of creation in blood. Meanwhile on earth, after being freed from prison following his defiance of the law, Dean Allen is a fugitive on the run. Determined to find Thor and aid him in his quest to prevent a cosmic threat, he embarks on a journey that will take him far from earth to the blood-soaked arenas of Sakaar and into a deadly clash of gods. Please note that this is an installment in an ongoing series. Reading out of order may cause confusion. The reading order for the series is: -Worthy -Avengers: Some Assembly Required -Love You to Asgard and Back -Eternal Night -Avengers: Peace in Our Time -Avengers: More Than a Mortal -Fantastic Four -Avengers: Divided We Fall -Asgardian Twilight -Avengers: Destiny Arrives -Captain America: Love in a Time of Loss -Avengers: Whatever It Takes -Avengers: A Wedding At Last -Avengers: Vengeance -Avengers: A Darker Shade of Scarlet
