Chapter 15 of Vida is now up!
"...in which Loki is an unconventionally named, totally normal, perfectly human man in his thirties from Britain, now living in Broxton..."

Sylvie watching fireworks that remind her of her and Loki's first date on Lamentis-1 and reflecting on how much their lives have changed since that day
"Okay, time for a photo op. Think you can work your magic and make those long arms of yours useful for once?"
"And what, pray tell, grand occasion are we commemorating this time?"
"It's for posterity. Our first official trip to New Asgard deserves to be remembered."
AU: the tree and loom crap didn't happen. everything got fixed but Sylvie still wanted to continue living in Broxton
so Loki keeps visiting her at work and they slowly rebuild their relationship.
her coworkers all ship them and are rooting for them to get together already
I imagine Loki and Sylvie would end up living in New Asgard. Sylvie has no recollection of Asgard and doesn't feel any attachment to it - if anything that place is just a source of pain. but for Loki, Asgard and its people will always be his home.
Thor: "Brother,can I ask you and Sylvie to entertain Love's friends?"
Loki: "No."
Thor: "But you two are gods of mischief! Who better to entertain the ki-"
Loki: "Thor, I know Sylvie loves to call me a clown but I am not THAT kind of clown. We're not doing it."
5 minutes later:
hear me out: if anyone should write Sylvie, it's Elissa Karasik. she created Sylvie's extensive and sadly unused backstory, wrote even more Sylvie scenes that ended up on the cutting floor AND per Waldron, pitched that season 1 should be about Loki and Sylvie's love story.
Some people have been together so many lifetimes they find each other by instinct and love each other with ease. They meet with a ‘there you are, I’ve been looking for you’ and their soul settles. They part with a ‘see you in a bit, hurry back to me.’
"-palms pressed together in a quiet understanding of all that was, all that is, and all that might someday - hopefully - still be."
chapter done, now to make the moodboard ✌🏽☻️
Loki and Sylvie dancing to a slow, romantic song in the middle of living room...Sylvie being her grumpy "I don't dance" self but Loki just says "I beg to differ" and pulls her into an embrace...
Loki wants everyone to think he's this suave, powerful god, a bringer of chaos, a silvertongue who can bring everyone down on their knees but in reality he's just an awkward dork who loves his wife and starts stuttering and blushing the moment Sylvie as much as looks at him
and then he got the throne he didn't want to make sure she is okay but the question is...is she?
in the end they're both marching on with fake smiles plastered across their faces but on the inside they're hurting :(
a while ago i had an idea for a season 1 set one-shot: after Sylvie and Mobius find Loki in the Void, they, along with the Loki variants use the car to get to their hideout. Mobius drives, Classic is the passenger princess for gps purposes and Loki, Kid and Alligator sit in the
not a death but it may as well be
the writing here is dumb. a char. who has always ended up alone,sacrificed himself or even died...
...sacrifices himself again and ends up alone
in 13 years since he first showed up on screen they couldn't find a more original ending for him?
what's the dumbest / most unnecessary death or sacrifice in TV & film history???
a death so pointless and badly handled that it either confuses you or pisses you off.
my headcanon's that Loki's bursting to say "I love you" first,but he's holding back. he's scared of spooking her by coming on too strong so he gives her time and is willing to wait
so in my headcanon it's Sylvie who takes the leap and actually says "I love you" out loud first
'vida' will remain rated T even though there will probably be some...suggestive hints in future chapters.
however, i plan on posting 2-3 separate explicit one shots that tie into the story once this fic is done, starting with their moment in the Void which is already written and
picture Loki and Sylvie sleeping together for the first time as a couple. not in a sexual way but just sharing a bed, sleeping. neither of them have ever done this before and it's so new and different and they're awkward and a bit stiff. they have done so much already,
Loki is someone who absolutely loves using terms of endearment for Sylvie
love, darling, dearest, my dear, my love, temptress, minx, enchantress, my sweet, beloved, dear heart, light of my life,...
I understand why they chose to focus on Doom - it's comic accurate and despite what happened so far with Kang still makes sense and doesn't exactly lessen the chances of Loki and Sylvie playing important enough roles in the future. this isn't the end for them.
and since they are besties Loki always comes to her for a Sylvie-related advice
"I think Sylvie's pissed at me, but for the life of me, I can't remember doing anything to make her so mad. HELP ME"
I imagine Loki proposes to Sylvie the midgardian way (because she prefers Earth and its culture) with an engagement ring made from a gem that can only be found on Lamentis-1 because that's the place where their love story began and he's sentimental like that
Oh the parallel of Loki sacrificing himself so the person he loves can be okay 🥲 and Thor and Sylvie both figured out what he was gonna do moments before he did
Sylvie works at a prestigious art gallery in the UK. Loki,on the other hand,has little interest in art;the very concept bores him to death.but his mother is a different story altogether. art is her life and she is especially passionate about the works of a certain artist whose
