Summary
“Hey, brother,” Thor greeted cheerfully, then frowned slightly when he got a better look at him. “What’s going— oophf!”
Loki shot into his arms, not caring about the surrounding onlookers because Thor was here and alive and breathing and that was all that mattered. His pride be damned.
“Thor,” Loki whimpered, squeezing his eyes shut because he was not going to cry. “Thor. Y-you’re alive. You’re okay.”
Or: Thor got dusted in the snap, and in his grief, Loki creates an illusion-Asgard for himself, where everyone was alive and happy. Where he wasn't just an afterthought.
He never expected that Tony Stark, of all people, would somehow stumble into the illusion as well.

Summary
Loki gets caught in one of his many schemes and is punished by the Allfather - condemned to reincarnate on Earth as many times as it takes for him to finally learn his lesson.
In the late twentieth century, literature grad student Lukas Foss meets Anthony Stark - doctorate scholar in quantum mechanics (and several other things) - in the back of a drab pub in downtown Cambridge, Massachusetts.
A decade later, Tony Stark - billionaire, genius, playboy, philanthropist, and Iron Man - watches security footage of his dead (missing?) ex-boyfriend walking through a portal in a classified facility in Texas, clutching a blood-slick staff, and promptly loses his fucking mind.
Heavy liberties with timeline and ages. More tags to come as the story unfolds. I don’t own Marvel; I’m working off the movies, cultural osmosis via reddit and vibes rather than the comics.

Summary
Loki swallowed, and Gamora wondered if she had ever seen him so vulnerable. Not for a long time, she thought, not since he had first come to Sanctuary – when he’d been broken. Broken, just as she and Nebula had been.
“I have nowhere else.”
Gamora looked at him, and took account of every inch of the man before her. Gamora looked at him, and saw how he fidgeted. How he held his breath. How he hoped. Gamora looked at him, and recalled her conversation with Drax that morning.
“It is worth protecting, you know.”
“What is?”
“Family.”
Family.
She wanted hers whole.
Gamora looked at him – looked at her brother – and smiled.
“Welcome aboard, Loki.”
*****
What if Loki had never been sent to Earth by Thanos? What if he stayed on Sanctuary for years, a member of the Black Order alongside Nebula and Gamora until 2014, when he was sent with the sisters to aid Ronan's search for the Power Stone? What if, soon after, Loki joined the Guardians of the Galaxy?

Summary
A war-weary King binds himself to a beloved Jotun prince to end an ancient conflict, only to discover too late that peace forged without tenderness can break a soul—and must be mended through choice, humility, and love.
When Thor inherits his father's war and agrees to a political marriage with Loki of Jotunheim, he believes distance and restraint are kindness. But a soul-bond requires presence, not performance—and years of quiet neglect leave Loki starving in a golden cage. By the time Thor realizes what his court has hidden and what his absence has cost, Loki's spirit has already stepped back.
Now Thor must learn that ruling well is not enough if he cannot be present, and Loki must decide whether love that began as duty can be chosen again before it is lost forever.
