I came up with the idea of Thor writing letters to Jane during their separation. Frigga is the one who suggested it, because she can see how much he misses her. After an overwhelming response on tumblr, I decided to post. :-)

Enjoy!


Dear Jane,

Mother suggested that I write letters to you. I apologize if I am not very good at it. I am not known for being good with words.

Thor stopped writing and groaned. He wanted these letters to be special, to mean something. He balled up the parchment and threw it against the wall. There, it joined the rest of the paper that he had already thrown.

"Thor?" Frigga was at his door.

"Come in, Mother," he called.

"You have been in here for a rather long time. Is everything alright?" she asked him.

"I am trying to write to Jane as you suggested. It is not faring so well. Loki was the one who was good with words, not me," he explained.

She smiled softly and put a hand on his shoulder. "Do not think so hard about the words, Thor. Your heart will help lead your hand," she advised.

He smiled and hugged her. "Thank you, Mother. I know that I have not been very easy to deal with lately."

She ran her fingers through his hair like she used to when he was a child. "It is what mothers do, Thor. No matter how difficult you may be, I shall always be here to help you."

"I can't help but feel as if this is all my fault. If I had been kinder to Loki, treated him better, I believe this would not have happened. We would still have him," Thor confessed.

"None of this is your fault, Thor. We should have been honest with him from the beginning."

"Mother, you cannot blame yourself. You taught Loki to be himself. I only ever put him down. He told me that he never wanted the throne; he only ever wanted to be my equal. I never allowed that. He was always my little brother."

Frigga sighed, knowing Thor would blame himself until the day Valhalla claimed him. "Do not dwell so much on the bad memories, Thor. Remember the good times you shared."

"Thank you, Mother," Thor murmured.

"Of course. Remember, write from the heart, not from your head," she told him.

He smiled and squeezed her hand before she left. He put a new piece of parchment on his desk.

Dear Jane,

I hope that you are well. I miss you a lot. I find myself thinking of you more and more with every day that passes. It has only been a few days, I know, but I miss your kindness and passion. I miss your excitement for your work. I wish that I had more time on Midgard with you. I would have loved to explore with you and learn how you do your work. I also wish that you could come visit Asgard. You would love it here. I can just imagine you trying to understand how things work and comparing them to your scientific equipment. I hope that you keep working while the Bifrost is being rebuilt. Perhaps we could meet in the middle.

Always,

Thor

He sat up straighter and reread his letter. He smiled and folded it, putting it into an envelope. He knew that this would be the first of many letters he wrote.


Okay, there it is. Letter number 1. The first of many to come. :-)

Please, please, please give me your thoughts! I hope you enjoyed!
