[A/N: MAJOR APOLOGIES FOR SLOWNESS, NO THIS FIC IS NOT DEAD. I’ve just been very busy with work, class, and RL, and before that I had to focus all my attentions on getting this little number ready for Dragon*Con 2011. :3 (…Uh, I’m the one on the left, in case you were wondering, haha. And yes, I am a huge geek, but if you’ve read this far then I don’t doubt you already know that full well.) /ALL THE REGULAR LAME-ASS EXCUSES, orz

Anyway, just two more chapters after this one, then it’s on to a few other (probably mostly one-shot) Thor-fics for me! I can only hope that my writing has found favour enough with you, gentle readers, that you’ll give my further attempts an equal chance. :]

Also…the way this chapter ends is admittedly a little silly, but the mental image made it too funny for me to resist.

A/N: …This got written because I’ve been watching Wallander, and being exposed to so much of Tom’s beautiful…face, voice, acting, everything, is doing terrible, terrible things to my delicate little fangirl’s heart.

-Not related to the “Growing Pains” series.

-...Yes, of course I had to work some mythology in there somewhere, haha. A reference to one of the better-known and well-loved tales this time. :]

A/N: …Man, I really cannot shut up. LONG CHAPTER IS LONG, it was sixteen pages in Word, sob. E-cookies for anyone who a) makes it all the way through this chapter, and b) catches my nod(s) to The Hobbit. |3

A/N: And since this is movieverse!Thor and therefore there IS no “canon” RE: Svartalfheim and the Dark Elves …I really just Did What I Want. |D In Norse mythology most of the time the Dark Elves seem to basically = Dwarves, but that’s not the case in the Marvelverse, so I went with that. Dwarves have their own planet, Nidavellir.

A/N: ...This is going to be WAY longer than I'd first thought. Probably ten chapters, total. And this is the chapter that outs me as a total fight h0r. |D
