TIME PASSED QUICKLY.

Audelia was now four years old whilst her brothers were eight. She had always looked up to them— to Thor for the power, and to Loki for the stories. Magic was something she loved to learn about, and her beauty—albeit she was a mere toddler— was used by her to get out of trouble. She loved to make mischief—you could always spot her and Loki trying to pull a prank on Thor. 

Her dark hair cascaded past her chest, and her then blue eyes were slowly turning green. She wasn't very tall, just a little above the average height. Her long locks were wavy and soft, and her eyes were always kind—except for when she was getting in trouble. 

She was just another mischievous soul.

Thor, Loki and Audelia were the trio you could always spot doing one thing or the other, but most importantly, they always stayed together.

Unless Thor was practicing. 

Then it was down to Loki and Audelia. 

Loki and Audelia had a...special bond, as Frigga said. While Thor preferred to take part in fights—always— Loki and Audelia preferred to stay inside. 

That didn't mean that Audelia didn't like fighting. 

She simply didn't like igniting a flame already lit. 

She actually had a good aim. Albeit she knew about sparring—Thor had been teaching her with his wooden sword—archery fascinated her more than anything. Though it wasn't practiced as much as sword fighting was, archery was captivating for her to watch the soldiers aim the arrows and let them go, swiftly piercing the target.

Life passed quickly, and before she knew it, it the 17th of December. 

Also known as Loki's birthday. 

She burst into his room where he was sleeping peacefully, and started jumping on his bed.

"What?" he groaned, turning over and rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. She frowned and lied down beside him, speaking in a soft voice, "It's your birthday."

Loki grumbled and buried his face in the pillow. As soon as the realization set in, he shot up with wide eyes and a big smile.

"It's my birthday!"

Audelia giggled and hugged him, burying her face in his chest. 

"But you're just four," Loki spoke, burying his face in his shoulder, "how do you remember dates?"

"I'm simply that amazing," Audelia replied, moving out of her brother's embrace and flipping her hair over her shoulder. Loki laughed at this action before ruffling her hair. 

"That, you are."

『••✎••』

AUDELIA WAS 12 NOW. 

"Come on, brother," she teased, clashing her sword with Thor's. "You know you can do better than this." 

The sounds of the swords clashing against each other reverberated through the daylight. Audelia pushed her sword against Thor's. The force pushed him backwards. Albeit it looked like she was hardly using any strength, she was using all the power she had. 

Thor was damn strong. 

When Thor wasn't paying attention, she kicked his feet from under him, causing him to fall backwards. 

"I finally beat you!" Audelia exclaimed before looking at where Thor had been gazing. It had been one of the maidens from the castle. 

"Thank you for distracting him, Anne," she told the maiden. Anne giggled and nodded before walking away.

"I finally beat you, I finally beat you," the princess sang as she helped Thor up. 

"Oh, shut up," Thor spoke, but he couldn't help the small smile on his face.

"No," Audelia shook her head as she walked into the castle. 

After placing the sword back into the arms vault, she jogged to her room. Before she could turn towards her chamber, she bumped into Frigga. 

"Mother!" she grinned. Frigga sighed and smiled at her daughter. 

Messy hair with strands falling out of her ponytail, sweat glistening on her forehead, a strike of dirt on her cheek, dust all over her cloths, yet Audelia managed to look more alluring than half the princesses Frigga had met. 

"Audelia," the mother smiled, stroking the princess's cheek before tucking the loose strands of her hair behind her ear. "What did you do today?"

"I finally beat Thor at sparring," Audelia grinned proudly. 

"And how is he taking that?" Frigga raised her eyebrows. 

"...You should see it for yourself." 

Frigga laughed and nodded before speaking, "Go take a shower, then you can come down for lunch."

"As you wish, Your Highness."

Over the years, Audelia had matured— only in looks, though. Her mind was ever the same, childish and full of entity. After all, she was the Goddess of Life. 

She had a mind that could befriend anyone, and knowing half the staff that worked in the castle was proof of that. Learning magic from Frigga with Loki was something she thoroughly enjoyed. Training with Thor was convivial and fecund, almost always ending with Thor winning. She trained with Sif and The Warriors Three sometimes, even though she could beat the boys. 

Reading books and pranking Thor with Loki was done in her free time. 

She could remember the time Loki had transformed into a snake and Thor had picked him up to admire him when suddenly Loki turned back into himself. That was fun. 

Her looks were pulchritudinous. Her brown locks now fell towards her waist whilst her then blue eyes gained pigment, now shining green. Her facial structure was slowly becoming defined, and many men who worked in the castle would often shamelessly stare at her. 

She could change personalities like a chameleon could change colors. She could appear sweet and innocent one moment, conniving and deceiving the second. Her mind was sharp and quick, and her responses often witty. 

Being the Goddess of Life, she enjoyed sprouting flowers and vines from her hands. You could usually spot her in the gardens with the children of the maidens, germinating different blossoms and making the children either laugh or look at her in awe. 

As she stepped out of her chamber after taking a bath, she bumped into Loki. 

"Shh," Loki pointed a finger towards his lips. He crouched down near the corner of the turn towards the chambers, motioning for Audelia to do the same. She followed suit, glancing down the hallway to see Thor approach towards the chambers. 

Loki snapped his fingers, and in the blink of an eye, Thor was no longer wearing his ideal suit of armor. 

He was wearing a blue gown. It was quit alike to the ones Audelia wore. A blue corset was tightly secured around his torso, the fabric flaring out towards the end. The fabric of the gown clung tightly to his chest and the sleeves were stretched over his arms. 

Stifling her laughter, Audelia snapped her fingers as well. 

This time, makeup was smeared across his face. Dark red adorned his lips, and light blue eyeshadow coated his eyelids. A flower crown was placed on his head, and the fierce expression on his face was just the cherry on the top. 

Audelia and Loki quickly shuffled into the former's room before bursting into fits of laughter. 

"Loki! Audelia!" 

This just made them laugh harder. Thor burst into the princess's room, a scorn painted on his face. 

Loki and Audelia clutched their stomachs while laying on the latter's bed, trying to calm themselves. 

A knock sounded on the door. 

"Come in," Audelia managed to gasp out. Frigga entered the room and scanned the sight in front of her. As soon as she absorbed Thor's look, a chuckle escaped her lips. 

"New look, Thor?" she questioned, sitting beside Loki and Audelia, who had somehow managed to calm themselves. 

"Mother!" Thor whined, stomping his foot like a three year old. 

"Loki, Audelia," Frigga told the said children. Sighing in reluctance, Loki and Audelia snapped their fingers and gave Thor his old look back, the same old armor now adorning his body whilst his red cape fluttered because of the open window. 

This was them. 

This was their family. 

This was such a horrible ending mg. 

Anyway, the daily meme dosage is here:
