Until Dust

Summary:

After the Battle of New York, Thor returns to Asgard with his brother Loki in chains. Fearing the repercussions of increased tensions between Midgard and Asgard, Thor quickly seeks to create diplomatic relations with the mortal realm- placing Loki in charge as penance for his crimes.
When your parents' expertise sees them summoned to the Palace to help with the project, they come with you in tow. You are convinced it will be a week of long meetings and hard work; perhaps interspersed with some time to enjoy the luxuries the Palace can provide- but your hopes are dashed the very moment you step foot on the grounds and catch the younger Prince’s eye.
When his persistence becomes more than annoyance, and he offers you an out through an unexpected game; your own curiosity reveals him to be more than he appears, and the two of you develop a relationship neither one had planned for.
As this bond sets in motion a break in the timeline- and a frightening series of events- you are caught up in something that is impossible for either of you to contain.

And it could cost you both your lives.

Chapter 1: Index

Chapter Text

Hello all! 

 

        I want to set this first "chapter" as a sort of Index. This will show where different sections begin, and where different events can be found (or more specifically, where you can find the smut), since that's often something I wish I had when going back through fics I like! 

        I will also be creating a playlist for the fic as I go. It will be updated with one song per chapter, and the link to it will be here, and in the notes at the end of each chapter. 

 

        This is my first time writing a fic, so I appreciate both your patience, and your feedback! I hope you enjoy!

EDIT: if you feel the urge to comment about how you do not like a canonically bisexual and gender fluid character being written as such- don’t.If you find the fic is not for you, then it’s not for you. From here on out I will be deleting all comments whose only “critique” is that they don’t like queer representation. It’s in the tags, it’s been in the tags from day one.
If you’re not gonna make that comment about a cis or heterosexual character, don’t make it about a queer character.
Thanks besties ❤️

Thank you all for reading!
