《The Little Frost Giant》Big day
Advertisement
Uncle Thor came running into my room, he started yelling, "ASTRID WAKE UP ITS TIME TO LEAVE!" I heard dad yelling for uncle Thor "Thor it's 4 in the morning let her sleep, we will leave later today!" I started laughing. Dad sat down on my bed and told me "We are going to Midgard, Uncle Thor has some friends there he would like you to meet." I was so hyped! I wanted to go and wake up grandma and tell her, but dad said not to bother her.
My alarm went off and I raced to get ready, Uncle Thor and dad got me my own suit for my birthday! I think I will wear that to Midgard. But first I need to do my morning routine;
6:30, Wake Up
6:35, Brush Teeth, and Hair (Normally maids will do my hair but I like to do it my self.)
6:45, Get Dressed
6:55, Meet dad in the hallway so we can walk to breakfast together.
7:00, Go sit down and wait for breakfast.
Today I decided to wear something more causal:
Grandma says this dress goes well with my black hair.
Lady Sif, Fandral, Hogun, & Volstagg were also at breakfast. I decided to sit next to dad, but that's pretty normal. I don't sit next to grandpa very much, because when I sat next to grandpa he critiqued everything about me; "Your hair is to greasy" "sit up strait" "You eat too messy" "Be more like your Uncle." Dad get really mad at grandpa every time he does that. I think they have a weird history.
Astrid greeted everyone as we walked in to the dinning room. I saw Odin watching every move she makes and judging it. All I could think is, SHE'S 9 LEAVE HER ALONE! But I couldn't say anything, it drives my crazy how just because of our past, he feels the need to be so cold hearted to my daughter! Once Astrid was done being a good little hostess, she sat down next to me. She was being a chatter box the entire morning. Mostly just asking questions about our trip to Midgard. I couldn't say a lot about who we were meeting, I wanted her to get her own impressions of them.

Mother walked into Astrid's room and told us the remodels will be done when we return. Astrid wanted some room upgrades besides furniture, she only told mother what she wanted. Knowing Astrid, mother most likely had to negotiate with her and tell her when things got a bit to much.
Astrid got packed her suit with her to show who ever she was meeting. All that Thor told her is that that they all fought together. Astrid wanted to know who, or what they fought. But Frigga told Thor before, not to tell Astrid, let Loki do that on his own. Loki told Astrid to meet him in the garden when she was ready to leave. Once she got to the garden she ran to her father, He gave her a small green box, inside was a necklace with the letter A on it. She asked if she could wear it, Loki took the necklace from her and put it around her neck.
Every time Loki would go to the garden he would always think of the pranks he played on Thor as children, or of him getting left behind as Thor would go with his friends. But now he thinks of Astrid, and her first steps, or when she was picking flowers for Odin and Frigga. After Loki got done day dreaming he saw Astrid up in a tree, reading a book. Thor walked behind Loki trying to scare him, but It didn't work. Thor said to Loki while looking up at Astrid "Like Father, Like Daughter." Loki would always read up in that tree as a child. He called Astrid down so they could leave. The 3 of them walked on the rainbow bridge together on the way to the Bifrost.
"To Midgard, please!" Thor usually never said please, but he need to be a good example to Astrid, or what ever Loki said. Astrid was really scared, she had only seen the Bifrost from afar. She hugged her father like her life depended on it, to her it felt like it did. Loki told Astrid, "Look around, welcome to Midgard." She saw a weird looking building with an A on the top. She also saw some guy in a spangled outfit, another guy in what looked like a red and gold metal box. She looked up and saw a person flying around in what looked like a bird costume. She also saw a red headed woman drive up the dirt road. Astrid thought all of this was cool, but scary.

Astrid's POV:
Someone came and took my bag. He has brown hair and was in a suit. I didn't have much in my bag, just some books and some outfits. Dad said not to bring much along, but enough to keep me busy for the week. Uncle Thor told us to go inside. I just held dad's hand. I didn't know what was happening. I only trust 2 people here, and one of them is talking with his friends. The guy who was in the metal box, who's name is Apparently Tony, Tony Stark, told me to sit down. I looked at dad and he nodded. He wasn't saying much, not even to me. I sat down hesitantly. Then everyone came inside and sat around a large table. There was 13 people at the table including me. Tony introduced everyone, by the 'hero name' and 'real name.' Starting with himself. I remember the hero names better so I will just use that. At the table was; (he was the once who carried my bags) I obviously already knew dad and Uncle Thor.
Everyone was asking Astrid questions, Astrid was frightened and over whelmed. Loki spoke up, and said "That's enough questions for now, lets make lunch!" Astrid was very hungry and so was everyone else. Astrid pulled Loki and Thor into another room, she asked if they can make flash cards of everyone so she can learn their real names, Loki agreed its a good idea. She only had 3 names memorized, she knew that Iron man is Tony Stark, Captain America is Steve Rogers, And Spider-Man is Peter Parker.

Piper
"It was one thing to find a harbor in a storm, and a complete other to expect that harbor to be safe."

My Girlfriend, the Necromancer
The power of the Orb cleaves the skies and shatters the earth. It heralds the advent of a new era, one where humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain and we must rise to the challenge when faced with our own extinction as a species. I could hardly care less. All I ever wanted was to love my Allie, to grow old and wrinkly by her side as I held her hand before taking my last breath on this green earth. To have our love echo through the ages, an ode to the last great love story on the planet, one that would endure the end of humanity, the breaking of the world, and even defy the dread summons of Death itself. It’s said that when the gods unleash their fury upon mortal kind, they grant their wishes. Well, crap. This is a gritty end of the world survival story with modern fantasy/romance/game-like elements in it. The main focus will be character development while stats and menus are there as a fun vehicle to empower the imagination. This is a work in progress and I deeply appreciate any helpful suggestions, so please don't be shy with input! Currently posting at least one chapter per week.

Homeland
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state.A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier.Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do.Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
