Pairing: Implied Thor/Loki
Word Count: 215
Their fate is entwined; tangled. Realms are cease to be, wars are fought, battles lost and won, but still they dance around each other in a twisted mockery of love and affection. One lives in shadow and darkness, the smirk creeping on his lips the only thing that betrays the air of a funeral that trails after him like smoke. The other thrives on sunlight and praise, yet he would gladly fight his way to the darkness if only to be near the wicked sorcerer he once dared to call brother; who he still does even if it's only in his own mind. But still the Norns had cursed them to forever be together and never near. From young boys giggling and chasing each other around their mother's gardens, to only slightly older boys hiding away in the shadows the younger grew so accustomed to just so they could steal a few precious moments, and now the enemies who can never find it in themselves to simply kill the other and end it all; they have been side by side. Perhaps in hatred or love, but one thing is for certain. Thor is not Thor without Loki, as light cannot be without darkness, and Loki cannot be Loki without Thor. Sometimes, fate can be cruel.
