“Permit me to introduce myself. I am Loki.†He bowed.
At first, Kelda did not answer, though he gazed at her expectantly. Finally, she swallowed her astonishment and managed to squeak, “Loki … Laufeyson?â€
“Loki Laufeyson, Loki Flame-Hair, Silver-Tongue, Blood-Brother of the Allfather, Father of Monsters, Mother of Sleipnir, Lie-Smith, Scar-Lip, Wrecker of Worlds … yes. That Loki.â€
Thanks guys.
The Lay of Thrym is probably my favorite Norse myth. This is the one where Thor’s hammer is stolen by a giant, who will only give it back if the gods give him Freya for his bride. The gods instead decide to send Thor disguised as Freya, with Loki disguised as the bridesmaid.
Loki is more convincing as a woman because he’s had more practice.
Sadly, I doubt they will be incorporating this story into the plotline of the next Thor movie. I would pay double to see that.
Honestly, this was just going to be a picture of Idunn and Freya. And then I noticed Freya looked kind of annoyed, so I thought I’d give her something to be annoyed about. Idunn is kind of the Luna Lovegood of Asgard, takes everything in stride and likes everybody, even Loki.
“Hey, Loki, remember that tree in Midgard you were going to show me, when I got kidnapped by that giant? Are we ever going to go look for that again?”
WOW have I really been absent since October? Well, here, have a friendly dwarven fellow to make up for it. This is Brusi. I think he shops at the same store as the dwarves from The Hobbit.
Thanks!
Oh, and I totally forgot to share this guy, too: Back in December, we were listening to The Hobbit soundtrack while my husband was wrapping gifts in Rudolph-themed paper. This combination of factors led to a conversation in which we agreed there should have been a wizard called Rudolph the Red. So I made him.
Who said mythology can’t be hilarious?
