The years passed. Eli was now six. Loki and Ava's second child was a girl. They had named her Astrid. Just as Eli looked like his father, Astrid looked just like her mother…however both children were mischievous and adventurous. They got into all kinds of trouble together, along with their cousins. Thor and Arisa had had twins, a boy and a girl. Their son's name was Micah and he looked just like his mother with dark hair, dark eyes, and pale skin. Their daughter was Cora. She had long blond hair and sparkling blue eyes. She was exactly what Thor would have been had he been born a girl. She even tended to act just like her father, loud and proud, while Micah was a bit more reserved like his mother.

Frigga was of course happy to have a palace full of grandchildren…even if they did get into several misadventures together. Gail and Hagar were frequent visitors at the palace to see their daughter and grandchildren. Jen had taken Idunn's apple and was now gifted with an Aesir life. She and Fandral had married and had recently had their first child, a little girl. She had blond hair and brown eyes just like her parents. They had named her Hazel. She was just a few months old at this time, but it appeared she was going to be a bit difficult as well as she grew.

Loki and Ava sat at a table in the garden along with Thor, Arisa, Jen, and Fandral. Jen was holding little Hazel close as she slept in her arms. Fandral had become quite the father, having turned around ever since he and Jen had gotten together. The four young royal children were running about the garden, playing games with each other and laughing.

"They are so full of energy." Ava said with a fond smile. "Just wait till little Hazel is in the mix."

"I think all of our children are going to get into so much trouble together." Jen agreed with a smile.

"But then again, they wouldn't be much fun if they didn't get into so much trouble." Loki said.

"You're only saying that because they are all so much like you and Thor were as children." Ava teased.

Loki grinned. "I seem to remember someone else having quite the adventurous spirit, my love." He said, wrapping an arm around her and pulling her close for a kiss.

"Careful now, behavior like that will bring you a third little trickster." Thor teased.

"Oh goodness, I don't know if the realms can handle another little Loki." Ava said with a laugh.

Loki pulled Ava into his lap and tickled her sides. "What was that my darling?"

Ava laughed and tried to get away from Loki, but couldn't. After a few moments he stopped tickling her and just held her in his lap. Ava turned her head to grin at him. "You know I love you and our children. I wouldn't trade our life and family for anything."

Loki grinned. "Good…and neither would I."

"Seriously, you two still act as if you are newlyweds." Fandral teased.

"Don't be jealous just because we've been married for over a century and are still just as passionate as if we were married yesterday." Loki teased.

The group talked and laughed a while longer as they sat and watched their children play together. As Loki and Ava sat with their friends and family, they couldn't help but to feel happy and content. While because of their childrens' special gifts, they were put in more danger than the others, they were happy and healthy little kids. This…this is what it is all about. Loki thought as he held his wife and they watched their children. This is what true happiness is.
