That's Not What Happened: An Asgardian’s Guide to Norse Mythology [Thursday, Period Three]

Instead of Thor standing in front of the class, there was a Loki. A Loki, a magpie, and a corgi that was dressed up in a miniature version of Thor's helm and cloak.

That was... totally normal, Loki. Yeah.

"Greetings, classmates! Mine brother has been turned into a dog, so it is upon me to teach you the wonders of our land," Loki said brightly. Seriously, nothing could ever go wrong here. Nothing at all. "Today you will learn of the Asgard that I am familiar with. As I am certain, due to the multiuniversal nature of our island, will not be the same as our esteemed teacher's."

Their adorable teacher.

"I did not live in the Asgard known to Midgardians through myths, it had been destroyed by the cycle of Ragnorak that ended the realms beyond this one." Makes perfect sense, people. "When I was awakened and knew my true name, the city was once more in ruins from a battle that had been instigated by, and then ended the life of my predecessor. The once beautiful city of the Aesir was reduced to rubble, filled with refugees of the Nine Realms who had been newly awakened from the minds and souls of humans across the world. That is the Asgard I have known. It does not reside upon the great tree Yggdrasil as it once did, the tree has been split in twain and bleeds upon the land of Oklahoma where the great towers had been rebuilt by Thor in an attempt to return our people to glory."

A beat.

"Though, despite all that, I have found I quite enjoy Midgard in all my time here. The diversions are much more interesting. I have amassed a great collection of popular culture thanks to the most wondrous bits of torrents."

It was possible he missed the point of the class. Possible, but unlikely. Loki did what he wanted!

"I suppose we must do something of a more studious nature. If you were to rebuild a great city of mythical fame upon the Earth, where would you do so and why?"

"Should we get a stethoscope and a little lab coat?" Alex suggested.

"Well, obviously, you've gotta have the cane," Alex agreed.

"Do you think they'd let us use an exam room?" Alex asked hopefully.

"You would be the injured one."

Dressing up the dog was more important, okay?

"Do you think maybe if we went down to the beach we could get some dramatic shots of his cape in the breeze?" Alex asked. Then, before Loki could answer, he concluded, "Maybe we should bring a fan."
