Just as much as she began eyeing him over, Cu returned the favor. There was something about her. He didn’t have any special sight, ways of discerning powers and he wasn’t exactly the most observant of people, but there was something about her. Something that was a tad different. 

“Mos’ ‘ere call me Cu, short fer Cu Chulainn.” he smirked, “Not me birth name, but ‘tis th’ most common one. So are ye Hela? Oi’m a fan af yer work… from th’ old days.”

      “You know my work?” That took her back a bit, didn’t her dear father try to erase her from history? Maybe he didn’t think to make sure Midgard forgot about her? After all, the mortals had such short lifespans.. Their stories often died with them, or were faded out over the years. No real threat to Odin’s path of peace, unless... Someone who was there never ended up dying. 

      “Cu,” She offered a hand to shake. “A pleasure to meet you.”

The last thing he happened to be expecting, though regardless he found himself still unable to drop the anger or in fact the rage. She had no idea…none at all, perhaps she was more like Odin than she wished to be. Either way all he could offer was a snide smile. 

“Amusing you think I care…family stopped meaning anything to me the day I found out what I was; i’m afraid my…behaviour…is simply the way I am.” His words soft but in a far from warm way. 

      “You are Loki, son of Frigga of Asgard. Nothing can take that from you, and if you wish I shall treat you as nothing more than that.” She had no idea what it was like for him to be raised by Odin- a clear reminder to their father of what he wished to hide. His firstborn daughter, the weapon he used to claim nine realms.. Nothing more, nothing less. Maybe a monster at some point, but at least she had Fenris and Frigga.

      As did Loki. He had Frigga, and she was the only name, the only family, that he should hold onto. Sure Thor seemed like a decent brother, but it was degrading to be known as ‘brother of Thor’. Better than a child of Odin’s, but still degrading.

He was the embodiment of rage: tierless anger and hurt from the years he’d grown up..been lied to, the years he’d grown up believing he had just as much right to the throne as his brother and yet only ever asking to be treated equally. Odin could NEVER do that; what was he but some halfling monster and offspring of the enemy. 

“Nor did he…-” his words dark but truthful; Odin could’ve been honest, even if Loki remained no more than a relic to the man..the truth…even the parts he’d clearly left out could’ve been told. “YOU ARE NOTHING TO ME.” The darkness continued to spread in his words. “We are not kin, we’re not…that and we ARE NOT FAMILY.” Loki spat. 

      Eyes narrowed at the man, she raised a hand and slapped him across the face. Soft words never worked for her, well, unless it was Fenris- but Fenris listened to her no matter what tone she used. What she learnt from Odin though was the only way to get through to someone was force.       So, she slapped him.       H a r d.

      “Pull yourself together, mother or sister, we are still family. I will not have you talking to me this way, let alone behaving!”

It were as if a mixture of shock, anger, pain hit the young God all at once even in the moments he had remained frozen to the spot. “You’re a liar…-” he spat. She needed to be lying; that was the only way he could deal with this. “ADMIT IT!” he almost screamed the demand at her. 

“You are just like HIM…-a liar..a-a manipulator.” he spoke in nothing more than deep seated anger, as if adding the dots that he had was now only fueling something that still laid deep within him enough so that just about every object not bolted to the floor now lay in a mess due to the outburst. Glass smashing, objects breaking as they hit the floor. 

      Her heart fell, but Hela didn’t show it. She merely pushed through, allowing the young man to get his rage out some before she spoke. “It’s just a theory, Loki. I could be wrong.” However everything was adding up just too well, a few gaps were missing... but Frigga could fill them in easily. Or, she can just tell her that Loki was not who she thought he was. He could very well just be an adopted little brother.

      “Think about it, Loki. I have nothing to gain. No reason to manipulate you.”

“If that is so, then family should not keep things from one another…-” truthfully his expectation, was some sister of Odin’s perhaps, that made sense; he was positive one of them would be insane enough to sleep with a Frost Giant  and he expected that her saying such would have no effect over him. 

He just needed it out. 

      Hela shifted on her feet, finding the courage not too easy to gather up. Still though, she managed, and locking eyes with Loki, she spoke. “Before I was imprisoned, I had a son. With Laufey.” It was not planned, it was merely the way she got the Frost Giants to aid her in battle. She would not admit that though, Loki most likely would start hating her as it is with having gotten herself banished, leaving him to the giants... and worst, Odin. 

      Still, she wasn’t her father. She would hold no secrets.

Loki could’ve worked it out if he tried but the mention of Odin brought nothing but a bitter laugh from him and nothing but the urge to know nothing more. It felt far better to him that she was insane, that was he remained no more than he’d always been and his anger at Odin could remain as it was.

“Then I certainly hope you are insane…-” his words seemed to get darker toward the end, the grip on her arm loosening as he most certainly stepped back. “How? I think I would be well aware if I remained related to him.” he was still chuckling, to anyone else he was sure he would appear mad…not that he minded. 

      “Do you want my theory or shall I get my facts straight first?” She questioned, not seeing any reason why she would lie. If he wanted the truth, or what she thought might be the truth, she would give it. 

      “Whatever the results may be,” Hela added, cupping his face. “We are still family.”

“What on Midgard ar-..” he shook his head, confused by whatever revelation she’d had and he’d certainly had the truth hidden from him far too often to just allow her to walk off. 

Grabbing a hold of her arm he gave her a look, he couldn’t understand any of this and he needed to. “I have been lied to by the people i’ve called family far too much. Tell me what is making you insane or at the very least stay and finish the book; Moth-.. Frigga will not be going anywhere” 

      Hela sighed, looking over at her brother. ..Maybe brother. If she was right.. What would happen? She might be able to pull off being a sister, but something more? And a better mother than Frigga? That was an impossible task! Hopefully she really was wrong, even though it made so much sense.. And so little sense. By the norns, maybe she was going insane by spending so much time alone! 

      “If I’m right, then I hate to say it, but you would still have blood ties to Odin.”

[asgardiandronning-blog]

ofxtricksandrequiem‌:

“No, though I suspect things cannot get much better considering the current predicament with parentage.” He’d assumed it would have been their DNA was the reason Loki appeared…well less like a Frost Giant but it was also their genetics that meant he was left to die at birth. Loki had let such things fade, there were far more important things to occupy his time now. Including that the younger versions of Frigga & Odin were running around. 

A chuckle escaped him. “A rather blunt question…they consider it rude to ask another their age here on Midgard and I believe we’ve only just gotten over the recent fratricide..” he proceeded no less. “1053, though I don’t believe I look a day over 1000.” 

      "...You might have spoke too soon,” She closed her book, putting it down on the table before moving to get to her feet. “I must speak with our mother. I must be going insane.” Right? Loki was... And she.. If her gut feeling was right then...       How? How did Loki get to Asgard? Was this Frigga’s doing? Odin would never.. 

     Not bothering to say anything else, Hela quickly headed towards the door. Frigga would know, she would not lie. Not about this.

“Yes, an unfortunate truth I know but the truth nevertheless.-” and one he’d had to find out on his own, in battle against the Frost Giants...when an accidental touch had caused him to turn blue. He was peering out of the window only to glance over at her by accident. 

She certainly looked like the revelation had taken her back, “Not a fan of Frost Giants?” Nothing more than curiosity behind his questioning, he wondered what she was afraid of…if anything at all. 

      “Do you know your birth mother?” He couldn’t be a full Frost Giant, she had been around them long enough to know their young and how they grew- Loki wasn’t like that. Whatever else he was, was surely something just as powerful if not more in order to have him not have her second guess he wasn’t a true son of Odin. Or maybe it was a part of her that always knew, and deep down did not want to face the truth? She had spent over an entire millennia to get over the lost of the life she created, and the mystery of why she never came across it while ruling Hel.. Even through her search and conquest over the rest of Niffleheim.        No sign, none at all- till now.

      “..Loki, how old are you?”

[asgardiandronning-blog]

ofxtricksandrequiem‌:

A true statement, though in some ways he felt as if she would always be his mother...that he would always have a soft spot for her. But he couldn’t see what that had to do with anything, only raising a brow as he peered over the book he’d been giving the majority of his attention to. 

“I am aware.” He nodded, shrugging subtly before he placed the book down on his lap. “Though that does tend to be the case when you are…adopted..” Often adopted felt too kind a word and stolen too rough. He was taken as no more than a possibly item of peace. But Frigga had loved him in ways she didn’t have to…perhaps that spoke far more for her. 

…”I met Laufey once, he seemed far worse than Odin…though both were perhaps awful in equal measure.” Loki shook his head, bringing himself forward from his thoughts. “Where are you going with this?”

      Adopted? She could see Frigga doing that, Odin.. not so much. It was most likely their mother who talked the old man into keeping the little boy and-       Her face fell, the words falling flat on her tongue. Laufey. Laufey. The Frost Giant. The man she-

      “....Laufey is your father?” Hela questioned, voice sounding much weaker than he had ever heard her. Her face too, was much paler- making her look even more like death itself.

      “Frigga isn’t your birth mother,” More than a statement than a question, Hela’s green eyes looking over top of the book she had been reading. She and Loki had both been reading in each other company, drinking tea he brewed. However the question had been on her mind ever since she saw her mother the other day, how unlike she was of Loki.. He did look faintly like her, and their father, but...        Only faintly. Not like Thor. Not like her- actually, a lot like her. He looked like her. How could that be? Did their father really missed her and raised his youngest to fill in that hole she left? Or maybe it was more of their mother? She was more of the one who would care, and would openly accept any young babe..       “Did you know that?”

          This wasn’t Loki, not at all. That much was all too obvious.Frigga berated herself for the confusion, though, how could she of expected to lay eyes on the daughter she thought lost for so long?

          Lips pursed together, she looked her over. es. This was Hela. Without a doubt. “You did.” she spoke, a mirror of the other’s words. “Why–” No, that didn’t matter. “I thought you…” She had been gone. 

      “I’m sorry I’m not what you were expecting.” She spoke bitterly, eyes remaining on her mother for a few, long moments. The woman in front of her was her mother for sure, but she did look aged- clearly the work of her two brothers. After all, she wasn’t around to give her mother all those grey hairs! 

      “If you’re here for my brother you’ll have to wait,” Hela spoke, moving past her and over and onto the couch where she had been reading a book. 

[asgardiandronning-blog]

      Raising a brow, Hela turned towards the man who spoke her name. Was this a friend of her brother? She wondered, but then again.. there was a sense around him that he lived for quite longer than any mortal. Something a bit more than just one of those mutants too. Not Asgardian, she could tell that within a heartbeat, but something else.        “And who are you?” She questioned. 

@asgardiandronning

With the recent time slip that happened–as he understood it– Cu was beginning to see a lot of familiar faces he hadn’t quite seen in a long time. Some more recent than others, but all of them welcome. Some, even, were legends much like himself, though hailing from a planet far from Earth. 

“Sorry ta bug ya, but ye ain’t Hela, are ye?” he asked, making his way up to one of the darkly shrouded women within their little Inner Circle club-house. “Oi was hearin’ tell af a few Asgardians visitin’.”

This was ridiculous. She saw the glimpse of ark hair and green color and then they ran. She thought her child was braver then that. Moreover what had she done to make him run? Perhaps it had something to do when she pointed a sharp object at him during that horrid gathering.

Either way, it infuriated her to be run from. “Lok.!” She exclaimed, marching after him. “Wha is the matter, what did I—” she froze at the sight before her. 

      Stopping halfway out the window, Hela couldn’t help but give a small, sheepish smile towards her mother. She was caught, and what really made her stop in her tracks was the fact she was almost called Loki.        Did they really look so much alike? Couldn’t a mother always tell apart her children? ...Of course she wasn’t around when Loki was raised, and being siblings.. They were for sure to share some characteristics, right? 

      “Mother.” She carefully pulled herself back inside the building, straightening up and dusting off her clothes as if she had not just tried to flee. “I thought you were dead.”

[asgardiandronning-blog]

@ofiridescxnce

      Oh dear Gods.       That was her mother, her mother! What was she doing here?! Wasn’t she meant to be dead?! Why did she know- Oh, right. Loki. He most likely invited his mother over and forgot that his sister and mother may not be on the best of terms.        Hoping that Frigga didn’t see her, Hela quickly moved to escape out the window- even though she was on the second floor.

laura had begun moving away only to find herself freezing in her tracks. did she kill them? “i had to.” she admitted slowly and her eyes met the other’s. “who are you?” no she didn’t mean a name since she already had one for the woman. she meant… who was she to care?

      An eyebrow was raised, and pausing in her step she looked back over at the other woman. “Impressive.” She complimented before grinning, a hand coming to rest on her chest. “Hela. The Goddess of Death.”
