Two months later and at five months pregnant, adorned in her best plus size sundress, sunglasses, sandals, and a nice big summer hat, Luna was entirely too ready to see her mother. Ten months had been more than a long time that she could bare.

“You ready” Loki asked, adorned in a dressy shirt, fancy capris, and sunglasses as well, with his arm around his darling wife looking down to her. Luna practically vibrated with excitement. “Ready as I’ll ever be! Let’s go!”

Loki chuckled as he snapped his fingers as they began to travel via speed-traveling.They went through a vortex of fast-speeding landscapes; Street blended together, along with the trees, the people, the skies, and the sea. Everything was just a blurry tunnel until they reached a nice down-to-earth home in sunny California. Loki always thought the place a bit odd, seeing as it was rarely affected by the Earth’s four seasons, but then again that was the way Asgard was also: No sun.

Once they had reached their destination, Luna almost fell down, but Loki helped her keep balance. “Darling, are you okay?” He asked, concerned. She put her hand son her stomach and shook her head. “Ugh, speed travel,” she groaned, “I don’t like it. It makes me feel disoriented, but it’s very fast.”

Loki laughed as they walked up the trail leading to the house. “That’s the pros and cons of marrying a god, and besides…I don’t think Midgardians were meant to endure it anyway..”

Luna mockingly laughed. “Shut up, dear.” She held his hand and squeezed it gently as they knocked on the door. 

Loki having to calm Luna down because she was practically jumping like a child and Loki couldn’t help but love it. 

She was his adorable Luna and he loved her so much.

Soon,the door opened to reveal Luna’s mother, Sylvia Moon. A plump 40-something woman with beautiful swarthy skin and eyes that shown show much wisdom. She had a huge smile on her face for her daughter son-in-law.

“Mommy!” Luna exclaimed, running up to her mother and hugging her so tight. Her mother laughed and let go. 

“Whoa, be careful there, honey. You’re carrying my grandchild in there.”

Luna’s eyes go wide as she steps back and put her hands on her stomach. “Oh, right.”She laughed.

Loki stepped up and hugged Sylvia. He always had a soft spot for her as they were the only Midgardians that showed him respect, and showed him how the humans work and their customs as well. Every year at Hogwarts, 

Luna took Loki home with her to experience Christmas and everything else that happens in aMidgardian household. He was adorable in the way that he didn’t understand how or why people celebrate a holiday by making your house a big nightlight and just receive presents for a whole day. They also took him to movies and restaurants and to the mall, which was the weirdest experience for him. A place where people just go and buy things, things that were so frivolous that it wouldn’t even cross his mind. It made him damn near have a panic attack. Sylvia couldn’t stop laughing and Luna couldn’t either, but she thought it was extremely adorable as well.

They were the family that showed Loki the ropes of the human world.

“Why,hello there again, Sylvia. It’s a pleasure to see you again.” He greeted her with that charming smile of his. 

“It’s nice to see you too, Loki” Sylvia smiled back at him. She led them into her house and sat them down on the couch. “Would you guys like anything?” She asks as she brings a pitcher of lemonade and three glasses as she poured herself one. “So, how have you two been since we last saw each other?”
