I don't own Thor or anything Marvel. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this, would I?

Based on the Loki is accidentally made godfather to someone prompt.

It was all meant to be a joke, honestly. How was she supposed to know that Loki was actually a person?! And decided he'd come to Midgard to take the role of godfather to Alena? Well, it couldn't be helped anyways, and the black haired young man seemed content to simply watch from afar, and to make sure that nothing happened to her adopted child. There was a lot of adoption in the family, she was adopted from Russia,and she'd adopted a young girl from Russia too. Mind you, she wasn't married, but everything worked out okay. This was just another weird factor of her life. She sighed.

When Alena was around 3, Julia knew for a fact that the young girl was autistic like her. She was quietly relieved, this made it slightly easier on them both. She'd have loved her daughter either way, but this was a good thing. She'd have less difficulty understanding her, this way.

When school started, however, Alena started having weird occurrences happen near her. One day she was at her table in preschool, and a pencil missed her by a few feet. Later the girl who threw it was found to have been cheating on standardized testing, among other things. The girl hadn't tried anything since the pencil incident, though, because she'd gotten caught a day later with papers that proved her parents were actually escaped criminals. Julia had narrowed her eyes, but gone with it. She had no proof, anyways. The girl had been transferred to another school.

When a pack of girls had tried in 3rd grade to surround Julia and take her journal, which was full of fanfiction based on the Warriors series (like her mother), somehow the had been encrypted in runes, and both mother and daughter had assumed the girls had been making it up because they found no trace of them when they arrived home. And the pack of girls had each been found to have been bullying several other girls, and had some of their property as well. The property was promptly returned. Julia couldn't see any trace of Loki, but she had a feeling.

Throughout the years, the school had tried to fight the dark brunette on following through On Alena's IEP, but the lawyer Julia had hired for her daughter and herself somehow always managed to convince them it was in their best interest to follow through. The lawyer simply smirked when Julia asked if they had met before.

However, in 5th grade, there was an incident that involved a snake that screamed Loki. There had been a pet snake brought in that absolutely refused to leave her daughters arm. They finally purchased him from the trainer, and he proved was intelligent enough to write, but only when other people, besides Julia, weren't around. Julia watched the snake suspiciously for a few days, and his eyes (they had determined it was a he) glinted with amusement.

Then, Alena had discovered Harry Potter. When bullies had tried to hurt Alena, a strange man had appeared and managed to give them a physical shock. Alena had sworn he said his name was Loki, but "She must have heard wrong, Loki is a fictional character from Thor." To ensure they wouldn't be carted off as insane, they agreed with the investigators, but in private both admitted Loki had had a hand in it.

When Alena turned 16, she had mysteriously been gifted her dream car, a Honda Element. It had a sunroof, and it was in her favorite color, blue. There had been a note with the words, "With love from your godfather." On the seat. The title was there as well, and everything looked legitimate. Julia let it be, and answered Alena's questions about did she think that Loki was behind it, that yes, she did.

In junior year, someone had posted a picture mocking Alena's love of Harry Potter to their Instagram, and Alena had been pissed. She had written a small rant about it, and left it on the table as they left to go see Catching Fire.

They were absolutely shocked to find Loki in all his glory lounging on their couch. Alena gasped as she realized he must have been returning from the second Thor movie and instantly asked if she could hug him. "To ensure you're real..."

Loki obliged. He seemed to appreciate the hug, however, and didn't let on if he had realized why she had hugged him. Julia was relieved.

Later that week, he asked Alena if she would like to gain revenge on the jerk who had posted it, and Alena glanced at her mother, who said to "be vengeful once in your life, you deserve it." Alena had allowed a smirk to grow on her face, and Julia had simply sighed.

The individuals involved with the mockery ended up getting expelled from school, and Loki returned to the apartment after school with a pleased smile on his face.

"Loki?" Alena asked quietly later that evening. "Could.. could I visit Asgard, at some point?"

"Why don't all of us take a trip this weekend?" Loki replied. "I have news for you both, news that I only heard recently. It needs confirmation, however." Julia grew suspicious of this, but agreed to it. That weekend, Loki arrived with Asgardian outfits for them both, and said he'd heard their praise of it when watching the movies. Both girls had begun squealing. Alena had been given permission to keep it. She'd hugged Loki again after that.

What had been discovered about Alena's biological parents, however, had shocked all of them, even with one suspecting it.

It had all started when they had entered the weapons vault. Loki had given permission for Julia and Alena to poke a few things if they wanted, and Alena had poked the Frost Giant's casket thing out of curiosity. She didn't expect her hand to start turning bue, and could only remove it after the shock of seeing that had worn off.

"Lok-Loki? Mommy?" Alena wispered. "I-I think you-you need to see-see this." Her voice was shaky, and Julia rushed over, Loki not too far behind, illusioned as Odin. He'd sighed, and said he'd sort of expected this.

"What do you mean, expected this?" Julia growled. Loki directed them to one of the palace's bedrooms, for a private conversation.

"What does this mean?" Alena asked, thoughts churning visibly.

"To the best of my knowledge, at the very least siblings. I think we're twins, actually. Can you not see the resemblance?" Julia had to admit, she did, as Loki shifted to his normal state to compare. "I remember Father mentioning something, he said he didn't want a meeting to take place between my other sibling and I, a while back, and it always confused me. I asked him about it and he told me I misheard. Mother seemed to disagree… Perhaps that's why we met." Loki was interrupted by a solid knock on the door. "Enter!" Loki called, back in his Odin illusion. Heimdall of all people entered the room.

"Hello, Julia, Alena." He greeted calmly. "Yes, Loki, you are correct in your guesses." Heimdall removed a parchment envelope from his pocket. "I will tell you what I know."

It turned out Loki and Alena were twins, and Alena had been put in the year 2000 to ensure that the two never met. Frigga, however, knew and hoped they would, and told the gatekeeper to conceal what he knew until they had discovered it themselves. "Your mother didn't agree with your father on this, but had to agree. However, he knew of none of this. She always saw you differently than your father did, Loki." The gatekeeper told the trickster. Loki thanked him, and Heimdall exited the room, back to the Bifrost. He made no mention of Odin being absent. Alena wondered what that signified.

Julia and Alena agreed that the two of them would settle their affairs on Earth, or Midgard, as Loki called it, and move to Asgard, because not much kept them on Earth. They did keep there home and cars for vacations on holidays and such. They settled down and got caught up on Asgardian life, and soon were pleasantly integrated. Julia knew they would have to figure out a way to explain how they had somehow become extremely knowledgeable scientists if they ever returned ot Earth for a long span of time, but that was set aside for later. Julia ended up becoming a good friend to Loki, which was new for him, but it went well.

Then Thor returned to Asgard.

Boy, was that interesting.
