Okay kids, this is it. A Change in Reality is officially over. We laughed and cried together and it was awesome. We read what you said about fixing everything in the epilogue, but, as we've had this finished since September, you're just gonna have to deal with what we've already written. And without further ado, the Epilogue to A Change in Reality.


Thor was walking with his father in Asgard, about to head to Thor's welcoming banquet, "Father, how could you not have had enough power to take Rachel and Raina with us?" It had been bothering Thor in the two weeks that he had been back in his reality, and the question just slipped out, though once it was out, he did not regret asking it.

"I could have brought them." Thor stopped dead in his tracks. "Then why would you not?" Odin continued walking, forcing Thor to catch up. "It was obvious that one did not want to come and the other could not decide. We needed to get back and I thought it was kinder to make the decision for her."

Thor's mouth dropped open in shock. "She could have helped Loki," Thor stated, careful not to raise his voice.

"Son, she could not have been happy here, not without her friend, but neither of them belonged here. And do you truly want her to come here to see Loki's punishment? I was doing them both good." Thor remained quiet. He knew that what his father had done was logical, it removed any blame that Raina could place on Rachel for not wanting to leave her family by Odin saying that he could not take them into their reality, but Thor didn't like the idea that Rachel and Steve and Raina and Loki would have to be separated like that, with no real farewell. Thor felt as though he knew a little about that and felt that it was an unfair treatment to all involved.

"Would taking Raina have lessened Loki's punishment?" Thor asked, unsure as to why the question popped into his head.

"No Thor and that is why she is better off in her reality with her friend rather than sitting here watching Loki suffer every day."

Thor walked silently with his father. Thor believed that they could have taken both women and that Rachel would have been happy in his version of Midgard, with Steve, Thor thought that they might have even been able to get Jess and Dom to bring back eventually. Thor also believed that Raina could have made Loki better, more like the way he was before he found out he was adopted. He sighed as they made it to the banquet hall.

"Come now Thor," Odin said before they entered, "We have waited on this feast to respect your brother's pain in his separation from the mortal and in his punishment. Please try and act like you consider this a celebration."

Thor nodded, "Yes Father."


Okay, that's it. We're done.

Just kidding.

We are, in fact, doing a sequel, but before that we've got a little interlude of sorts that sets up the sequel. And with that, another changing of our posting schedule. We might be more anxious than you to get to the sequel, so we're posting Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays until we're done with the interlude, then we'll go back to Sundays with me and Wednesdays with Izzy. And the posting of the interlude starts tomorrow and it will be titled Splintered Realities (As far as I can remember).

Thank you all so much for reading and sticking with us until the end, and I can't wait to see you, and your comments in the future!
