Drabbles are something that was recently started on the LJ journals a while ago by different people, they are one-shot(sometimes) ficlets that are 100-500 words and are usually challenges from other people. (For more information, or just to read some more...) I've started to write some, only so far about MaLoki...

*My first one, written about Heimdall-

Damn him to his daughter's world, Heimdall thought bitterly as he angrily clutched his marred face, staring into a broken mirror. He hadn't been expecting an attack to come from Asgard, as he had been standing guard at Bifrost: a net wrapped around him so tightly he could barely move, then Loki's voice apologizing even as he reached in and-- Where his right eye once was, it twitched painfully and he gasped. He had been used to Loki's antics, even sometimes played like a fool. But then there were other times that Loki helped him, managed to protect him when other Beings descended on Asgard. Loki had even taken a hit meant for him once too.

Heimdall used to be a peaceful God, the protector of Asgard, who wished travelers well. Now he could only think of revenge, and refused to budge from his dwelling near Bifrost. Until he had heard the news that the AllFather had banished Loki from Asgard, and sent him to the Midgard world now known as 'Earth'. He left his dwelling and traveled the long way to the AllFather's palace, pleading for the chance to kill Loki and take back his eye. Odin smiled, and granted him permission, but as he turned to leave, Heimdall thought he caught a glimpse of red in the AllFather's right eye...

*Then I wrote this one today-

As the sun began to sink into the sea, a loud deep voice spoke above the sound of the waves breaking on the rocky coast. "Ummm... Father?"

Loki looked at the giant snake's head near his feet curiously, raising an eyebrow. "Yes, Jormungand?"

"What will you do now, that you can not return to Asgard?" The World Snake didn't move a muscle, only occaisionally the tongue darting out. Loki sat on one of the coils that his son had created near his triangular head. Loki didn't find it hard to get comfortable, one of the few 'nice' benefits his new child body had, he supposed. Loki shrugged, "I guess do what Odin isn't expecting me to do, live comfortably with the humans..."

Jormungand opened one slitted eye lazily, "May I come with you? It's very boring just sitting out in the sea..." Loki smiled and patted the skin near him, "Of course, but I'll have to think of a new name for you... How about Yamino, Yamino Ryonsuke? I think I heard it once while I was traveling..."

Loki bent his head, closing his now-crimson eyes, and used some of his remaining Power to change his son into the new form of "Yamino". He looked up to see a tall young human man with hair and eyes the color of the sea they were standing near, wearing an old-fashioned suit. "What would you like me to do, Father?" 'Yamino' bowed, then smiled at his new appearance.

"For starters, can you call me something else? Since it would be strange for you to call me Father when we are among the humans."

"How about 'Loki-sama'?"

"Sounds good..." Loki mused for a while, as the moon rose, seeming to chase the retreating sun. "I think I will also go into the Detective business, I think it pays well, from what I've read."

"But what shall I do while we are in the Human world?"

"You can clean the house and cook..."

"Ok, Loki-sama."

*This one was written by Carolyn-

Heimdall knows what is coming because he has seen it in his dreams. No more than indistinct voices and shapes and a phantom pain in his right eye, but he is intelligent enough to form a vague sort of understanding when he is cornered, overpowered, and restrained. He is angry and hurt, and already he wishes for revenge, cursing Loki's name as he struggles against bonds that he knows he can not break. Loki says nothing. He places two of his fingers over Heimdall's mouth, and they flare an angry red.

Heimdall goes silent and still.

He does not flinch when Loki's hand slides up his cheek, or when the other moves to grip his chin between his fingers. He stares into his eyes instead, searching for something he can not name. If he looks hard enough, Heimdall imagines he can see guilt, and regret, and that he can see Loki hesitate before his expression hardens and his fingers curl.

He smiles bitterly, and imagines that he can see an apology form on Loki's lips. His left eye closes in pain, and soon he does not see at all.

*Then yet another one, I wrote this about Heimdall living with Freyr for Carolyn-

"And just what are you doing here?"

"I came because the AllFather told me to come and kill Loki because of what he did to my sister..." Bunny ears sprouted from Freyr's head as he put a hand to his chest, and Heimdall put his head in his hands as he stood in the doorway.

That's not what I meant..." Heimdall's only eye glared through his hands at the other God who had taken to living with him. "I'm talking about why you are in my bathroom when you know perfectly well you have a bathroom of your own." Heimdall's hands went to his waist, clenching.

"Oh, that..." Freyr blinked, and then looked hurt, "Well, what do you expect me to do? Mine blew up while I was trying to give Gullinbursti a bath..."

Heimdall stared at Freyr disbeliving, then sighed, his hand going to his head as it started to hurt. "Freyr, your Pig is electrical, you can't put electrical things in water."

"Oh", then

"Can I still use your bathroom?"

"No, Freyr... Go use Loki's."


*Yet another Heimdall living with Freyr drabble I wrote, I'd love drabbles with this theme *hint, hint*-

Heimdall watched in disbelief as Freyr proceeded to completely assemble from scratch another pig. "Freyr, you already have Gullinbursti, what more do you need with another one? And are you sure you should have used those materials you found at the science store?"

Freyr looked up as he activated the pig. "Well, I wanted to make one for you, since you ride Gullinbursti so much with me, what if you want to go someplace while I am not here? Or need someone to cook for you when I'm not here?"

Heimdall blinked several times, he'd been used to Freyr's unusualness in Asgard, but here in this more technolyzed human world, Freyr seemed to be in Heaven, Valhalla, whatever it was. "But Freyr, I already have my hawk, and I don't _need_ a pig. I don't go _anywhere_ unless I have a plan to kill Loki..." His sentence was drowned out as the new pig, which had been flying around the ceiling, rammed into him, knocking the breath out of him, then into Freyr, where it then exploded, destroying several things in their house. Freyr flew out of the house, blown back by the force of the explosion. Heimdall landed in the remains of his favorite chair, his one thought after regaining consciousness was that he was lucky he had sent his hawk out to get some air.

He got up, dusted himself off as much as he could, and went over to Loki's mansion. He barged his way into the study (past Loki's son/butler who followed him protesting), where Loki eyed him curiously as he sat in his chair calmly drinking his tea. Heimdall glared back at him, pointing at Yamino. "Can we _please_ switch living mates? Please?"

"No."

"Then please kill me and get it over with."

*This is probley a bit dark, and implying several things, but at least Freyr isn't an idiot in this one...-

Freyr muttered under his breath as he wrote several Runes down on a piece of paper. His constant droning voice finally got to Heimdall, as he slammed shut the book on Earth History he had bought. "Just what are you doing, Freyr?"

Freyr waited until he found a place where he could stop writing on the papers, if he had ended his chanting earlier, the spell could have had some disastrous results. Looking over his work for mistakes, he finally replied, "I'm setting up an attack on Loki, if this is placed right, he will do anything I make him do, even so far as to dress like a little girl if I wanted, and-- Heimdall?"

For Heimdall had rushed into his room, and came back out lugging several cameras, a video recorder, and a small black case Freyr had once seen the contents of(and didn't have any wish to again unless he was ever into those kinds of things). "Blackmail," Heimdall grinned evily. "Shall we go?"

Freyr had to know, "How did you get all of that anyway?" He asked curiously as he gathered the Runes.

"I stole some of his son's mail-order catalogs."

*Then this one, I got inspired after seeing the picture for ep 22 on the TVTokyo page...-

Loki walked around the second floor of his mansion, trying to figure out what was going on. The kitchen, from which usually delicious smells wafted around the whole first level, now smelled like a sewer and a landfill combined with some other odors he couldn't define. That was what first got his attention as he left his study where he had been most of the day. Ghoulish pictures and intruments of torture littering the second level got his full attention, though mercifully his study where he conducted business and his bedroom had been left alone. After looking at one of the pictures, Loki tried not to look at any more, even he was scared by the thought of some of them.

While throwing open some windows to let out the smell, he heard a girl scream, and thinking it was Mayura, rushed down to the steps, fearing that an assassin of Odin's might be using her against him... but there was no one there. He did, however, see the first floor was decorated like the second floor. Then he heard a scuffling noise in the empty room next to Yamino's room. He opened it, and was treated to a scene reminiscent of corny horror movies that Mayura had once made him watch: Frankenstein's reanimated man was there, blood dripped from a severed arm into a fountain, and creepy music punctuated by the screaming and other noises he had heard earlier.

Then he saw Yamino and Fenrir, who were adjusting the torn sheets on the bed. He shut off the CD player in mid-chains rattling, and waited until he had their attention. "What is with the redecorating, Yamino-kun? Fenrir?"

Yamino smiled happily. "I just got a letter that Hel is coming to visit, and I just wanted to make the mansion seem more like home for her..."
