Discussion post: Thor at university

[snickfic]

As we know from Infinity War, Thor studied the Groot language at university, which means Thor went to university. I have not seen NEARLY enough discussion/fic on this topic. Where do we figure he went? How long ago? What else did he study? Did they let him on any sports teams? Was he the biggest bro to ever bro? Do lots of Asgardians go to university off-world? Did Loki? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.

What do you guys think?

I think this opens questions about the sourcing of The Warriors Three. dashes stage left crouched low and weaving

Oh, that's an interesting idea! Like maybe Thor sort of collected them around him at school? That'd be fun.

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

There's an implication that Hogun is from another world, while I think Volstagg and probably Fandral are Asgardian. At least, Fandral seems more capable of surviving being through and through impaled than I expect as non-godly.

I'm bummed that Ragnorok tore through so many, though I admit any toys not broken then would just have gone in Infinity War.

But yeah, it'd be fun 'seeing' how many ways of Meeting and Collecting the Warriors Three fandom can devise. And how them meeting 'little brother' went.

[snickfic]

Yeah, I think TDW makes it clear Hogun is from Vahaheim, where the fight scene at the beginning of the movie takes place.

And how them meeting 'little brother' went.

You know, I never was very interested in the Warriors Three, just because they never got much development, but you make me kind of want fic of each of them individually with Loki, possibly from the warriors' points of view. Outside POV of Loki is always fun. :D

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

I can see that. It at least felt like they had backstories, just that we weren't going to see them what with Past.

Ooh, Outside POV but Canon Characters!

I'm wondering if we'll get 2012!Loki discovering his origins in time to not invoke Greek/Shakespearean Tragedy all over Freya. Commercial or home-brew, either is fine.

[snickfic]

Well, 2012!Loki will already have discovered his origins, since that happened in Thor 1, which was prior to Avengers 1 in 2012.

I watched Thor and Thor II at home. But I thought it's Two that he goes to fight Laufrey and draws FrostGiants to Asgard.

So many movies, they blur. (Especially when I binge titles because they bunch up with my library queue. ;) )

[snickfic]

Nope, that's Thor 1! Which was a VERY eventful movie for Loki, possibly even more than for Thor.

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

Not Sequential viewing leads Fan Astray! So much is hidden in Fury's horrible no good week. So was Mother visiting him in his cell also part of his magic?

[snickfic]

I thought for the longest time that Frigga visiting Loki in his cell was him trying to make himself feel better, which interpretation I liked for its pathos, but there's a deleted scene that shows that it was actually her, and she was visiting him with her magic.

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

But is she dead at the time? o.O

[snickfic]

No, it's before her death.

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

I probably need to re watch Thor and then later Thor II.
