The funny/sad thing is that apparently way back in the day when Thor, Loki and Odin appeared in Sandman, Neil Gaiman said that there were irate Marvel fans that were mad that Thor was depicted as a kinda loutish guy with red hair rather than the image of Avenger!Thor (blond, winged helmet, formal Shakespearean dialogue) they were used to.

That body-image adds an entire new layer of humour to the “Thor crossdresses as Freya” story, and is also a side-effect of ale-drinking Thor who consumes it so enthusiastically that three big chugs create the tides.

He still can’t lift a cat, though…

poke-chann asked:

I reach into your pocket and pull out the first think my hand touches. What am I holding?

A magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

Now I shall take the second thing I find in your pocket. What am I holding?

A second magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

And now the third. What is it?

It is a magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

(In the same pocket)

Another magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

And yet the fourth.

It is a third magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

Now I reach into the other pocket and reach into the other pocket. What do I find?

A third magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

(In the other pocket)

Another second magic sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

And now I reach into the pocket and I reach into the pocket. What do I find?

An even more powerful sword, which belongs to you, my lord.

Ligur, amigurumi from Hell

wolligerundwolliger

After making a few Hasturs, I wanted to make a matching Ligur of course. Or so I thought. I’m used to projects putting up resistance, but Ligur is ridiculous. Couldn’t find the eyes, not even for sale, but put the yarn aside. The yarn promptly vanished into thin air, but the eyes turned up. Bought more yarn, now the Hastur pattern refuses to be made into a nice Ligur. Sigh.

I have never side-eyed an amigurumi harder than this one. I carefully inched my way toward the finish, and then I had… a prototype. And I didn’t like him.

Here he is in a line-up with a Bunny!Hastur, Reference!Hastur, and a nearly finished Hastur that waits for me to figure out how to make his scarf. I’m seriously not happy with Ligur’s proportions. I changed the hairline and the ear placement so his head looks a bit better now:

So here they are, the first set. My favourite part was making the little chameleon!

Going to make more Ligurs now, tweaking the pattern!

The Dragon’s Egg, by Astrid Lindgren

In the beginning, Dragon was very proud, so he grew larger and larger to make sure that everybody saw him. As he grew, his power also grew, and Dragon had a hard time controlling his magic. Finally he grew so large that he could fly, and his wings were so large that he was able to lift his own weight from the sky.

He was so proud that he decided to lay a precious egg.

In the egg Dragon found himself and he was very happy.

The egg hatched, and out of the egg crawled a dragon. It was a young dragon and, as dragons grow, it grew fast and very large.

The young dragon looked around and saw that it was much larger than the whole of Earth. It was very impressed.

Then it saw the beautiful world which it was born into. It was beautiful because it was all made of dragons. It saw that dragons could fly, swim in the rivers, dive down to the depths of the seas, or soar in the beautiful sky.

Dragons were not confined to the Earth. They were all over the whole world and their beauty covered the whole world. Dragons lived on all the continents. The young dragon saw that dragons were not confined to one piece of land. Dragons lived in all the seas. Dragons lived in the rivers. They lived on the tallest mountains. They inhabited the valleys, and they spread over the whole earth and the whole ocean.

What is a dragon? You are a dragon. You are a beautiful dragon. You are also a tiny, vulnerable dragon.

Dragon was proud of himself and of the world that he lived in. He was also very happy.

(From my English language translation of this book:)

It was a young dragon and, as dragons grow, they grow fast and very large: Dragon was so big and had grown so big that he was able to lift himself up in the air and go with the wind.

He was very proud that he wanted to lay an egg.

From the egg he found himself and he was very happy.

The egg was very big and hatched and out came a dragon.

He was a young dragon and he grew quickly and very fast

and he was a very beautiful dragon.

The young dragon looked around and saw that it was a lot bigger.

It was so big and it was so beautiful and beautiful

and it was a great happiness for the dragon.

So he wanted to fly to the sky

and he was so proud that he was so strong and so big that he was able to take off from the sky

and that is the way that Dragon is a proud dragon.

That’s it. A pretty happy story. I don’t know if it really has a point or anything.
