Prompt: How Kurt got the scar on his neck. (the one Chris got from surgery)

When Kurt is six, he falls out of a tree.  He lands on the shovel Mama had been using to plant pretty flowers in the garden. 
 
Kurt should've died.  He'll realize that much later.

When Kathryn's baby boy is six, he falls out of a tree.  She's on the other side of the yard, watching a dog across the street chase a cat up the fence, and she turns just in time to see Kurt land on the shovel.
 
Kurt should be dead on impact.  The shovel bit deep into his jugular. 
 
Kathryn throws herself forward, instantly at his side, hands on his neck, and seals the wound.  She knits everything back together, until only a slight cut remains, mostly healed into a minor scar.  Fatal wounds can’t be totally erased.
 
Kurt wakes up crying.  Kathryn leaves everything in the yard and carries her son to his room, where she curls up with him on his bed, softly singing a lullaby.

Mercedes asks Kurt about the scar once.  They’re in glee; Kurt’s been slushied three times since the first bell, locker-checked twice, and called fag so often it really doesn’t even matter –he doesn’t count name-calling anymore.
 
“Where’d you get this scar?” she asks, reaching out to touch it.
 
He leans out of reach, so casually it seems like he was moving before she even spoke.  “Fell out of a tree,” he says, shrugging.
 
Mama’s been dead for ten years.  Kurt’s been studying Norse mythology for seven. 
 
Loki’s been on the news for thirteen months.
 
“Looks nasty,” Mercedes comments. 
 
Kurt shrugs again.  “Could’ve been worse.”  He lifts a finger, tracing along the slightly raised line. 
 
His back should be heavily bruised.  His arm should’ve broken last year, when he landed on metal containers in the dumpster.  His head should’ve split wide open, when he caught a stair after being shoved a month ago. 
 
He’s lucky.  If Mama was anyone else, he’d have died at six years old.

Prompt:  "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves." I don't care for Will. Anyone else is fine.

"I'm dreaming," he says, kneeling on the dirt.

"Yes," his mother says.

"A warning?" he asks, looking up at her, then past her at the sky.

"Don't let this happen," she says, kneeling beside him. "You have the power, child. You have the knowledge." She kisses his temple, places a hand on his arm. "If this comes to pass..."

"It won't," he promises, icy determination and a pure, all-encompassing rage melding together inside him.

A dream. A warning.

A fresh grave and a stone with a name, a row of graves stretching from one horizon to another, a sky on fire and dirt full of ash.

“Don’t worry, Blaine,” he whispers, leaning forward to kiss the name. “This won’t happen.”

His mother pulls him into a strong, world-ending hug. He wraps his arms around her and asks, “Will you tell me who?”

She murmurs a name. The wind howls, thunder bellows, and the rage in Kurt’s heart has a target. He glances back at the stone. “I’ll save you,” he swears.

He wakes up.

Prompt: Any, any, when we were kids

"Hail, Burtson," a deep voice calls. Kurt stops mid-step, then spins around to stare up at the God of Thunder.

"Thor?" he asks in disbelief, gaze darting around for the rest of his team.

How the hell did Thor sneak up on him?

"Nephew," Thor says, giving him the most delighted grin. Kurt's only ever seen its like on dogs, basking in their person's approval. “We have much to discuss.”

Kurt steps back (hopefully) out of reach. “I haven’t done anything worthy of arrest,” he announces. “Or detainment, or kidnapping to Asgard, so –”

Thor’s expression saddens. “I’m not here as an agent of SHIELD, or as Prince of Asgard, nephew,” he says gently. “I would like…” He sighs. “I’ve only seen my brother across the battlefield. Please. Join me and talk of Loki.”

“I,” Kurt begins, then pauses. “You,” he tries again. Then finally, “What?”

Inclining his head regally, an elegant move Kurt learned from his mother that’s apparently an Asgard royalty thing, Thor says, “I miss my brother. I see so much of him in you. Please, Kurt Hummel, son of Burt and Loki… share a meal with me and speak of the adventures shared with your mother, my brother.”

After a moment of just staring at Thor, completely shocked, he says, “So, to clarify: I’ll talk about my childhood with my mother. And you’ll talk about your childhood with your brother?”

“Yes,” Thor declares firmly, smiling again.

“Sure,” Kurt says. “C’mon home, I’ll throw something together.”

Thor continues to beam. Kurt finally understands why Mama always used to grin at any and all Golden Retrievers they ever saw.

Forgive the presumption but.....I would love love love if the glee club accidentally finds out about Kurt and Thor having lunch/dinner together one weekend when Kurt begs off meeting with them saying he has other plans, and when they find out its not with Blaine...well in typical Glee fashion they race to discover what Kurt is doing. A wonderful twist would be not that they suspect that Thor and Kurt are related but some thing else...lol...my mind....teh scenarios are out thar.

Thor is totally a golden retriever. LOVED Kurt's immediate protestations of wrong doing and Thor calling his nephew "Burtson" - which makes sense in a Thor kind of way, less so in a Kurt kind of way.

Cannot wait to see the aftermath of that bonding. As I said before, Thor having to recover from the maelstorm that is Kurt would be hilarious.

The first two were also fabulous - seeing Loki as a mother was great, as was the explanation for how Kurt managed to survive all the bullying that went on. Scared for the warning Loki gave Kurt about Blaine...

Thanks for sharing, continue to love this 'verse!

These are awfully interesting. Is there going to be one where Burt finds out about his wife?
