12 Plot Points Of Christmas: A Writer's Challenge

Authors Note: If you like stories about friendships/interactions between humans and extraterrestrials/aliens who deal with the human adventure (e.g. TV shows like "Mork & Mindy," "My Favorite Martian," "3rd Rock from the Sun," and even "Perfect Strangers") this is right up your alley! While the characters used are from the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) the setting takes place in an alternate timeline.

FYI: One scene with gun violence. A scene featuring a character suffering from an anxiety attack which is triggered. A few scenes with mild sensuality.

Since the sequel to 'My Friend Loki' was not ready, instead, I present the following work which is actually a sequel to that upcoming sequel. The inspiration for this came from a writer's challenge from my friend on Instagram @markswears - which came a the right time! With my sequel not ready, I was at a loss and I wanted to have something to post for the holidays!

Written in third person instead of first. Loki's friend finds herself in a frightening situation. After all the times Loki has had to rely on her, the tables have turned. The brother from another mother also plays a role, making a decision Loki's not too fond of, and we meet with a group of people again that were first introduced in the vignette "Mischief Night" (from 'The Loki Chronicles').
