I am a writer. Therefore, I write. However, I could use some help this fine morn.

So, along with everything else I'm working on and failing to finish, I started something new today. An Avengers/Norse myth crossover where Rhodey (Tony's best friend) is Sleipnir, Happy (Tony Stark's bodyguard) is Fenrir, Tony himself is Jörmungandr, Pepper is Hela, and either Bryce Larkin or Eames is Vali, and Neal Caffrey is Nari (I'm waiting to hear back from the prompter for those last two).

Now. My questions are these:

Should I just find two Marvel canon characters to be Vali&Nari? Because it's already intricate enough and I don't want to worry about other canons, too?

What color is Fenrir's fur? I think I want him to be a black wolf.

Should Hela be the goddess of the dead, or should I just ignore that part? Maybe she's turned her back on everything but her family.

Also, I think I've decided that Loki is mother of them all, instead of just Sleipnir.

And I'm either changing or ignoring certain parts of the Iron Man movies, so that it fits into the whole 'some of the characters are mythological figures' thing better. Should I mention within the narrative itself whenever that happens (somehow) or just assume the reader is clever enough to figure that out?

well I think you ought to describe what is different from the movies in this new verse of yours and Arthur and Neal as the twins would be great, and explain why/how Eames can charm Arthur and not phase him ever

I've actually decided Arthur&Eames are Nari&Vali. *shrugs*

And I glossed over a lot of the movie canon because either it is changed (since Tony is not actually Howard's son, isn't a drunk, isn't so much of a playboy, and if they're all magical, how on earth could he get kidnapped and kept in Afghanistan?) or because I simply forgot about it. I think after I get it all typed up, I'll rewatch the movies and decide what I can keep ignorning or what should be fleshed out.

I see Fenrir's fur as dark grey and black, with black being the major color. :) But black would do.

Agree with Loki being the mother of all *nods* And I think changes should be mentioned (I at least don't think I always have smart moments *ducks* :) ). <3

Well I realized, when I thought it was almost done, that I'd completely forgotten some pretty major parts of Iron Man 2 - Black Widow, the fact that Tony was dying, and how Thor was meant to happening at the same time. *facepalm*

Of course, Tony being Jörmungandr completely negates the second, but the rest? Definitely need to be fleshed out. I'll do that after it's all typed up.
