Steve Irwin would have been able to lift Mjolnir, reblog if you agree.

I know this is MCU and not myth, but now all I can imagine is Steve Irwin doing a report on the Midgard Serpent.

“Now, there’s a story about Thor, big guy, and he wanted to tussle with this big guy here, and he hooked him right through the lip with a big old fish hook… He was just wrapping his way around the Earth, around all of Midgard, and he hooked him up…”

Steve pauses to tickle the serpent of Midgard  under the jaw, and gets a thumb into the corner of its mouth, revealing fangs the length of his forearm,

“And that’s not nice. Look at that scar, it probably took him a good while to heal that up, and he won’t have been able to eat much whilst he did. Poor little guy. You don’t need to be rough with these animals, you’ve got to respect them. And I respect him – Look at the teeth on him! He could have my arm off if he wanted!… He’s struggling a bit now, I think he really wants to go, and get back to causing earthquakes and tidal waves, so I’m going to let him go on his way. But he’s a great snake! Feels like a real privilege to have seen him in the wild.”

“Now, rumour has it that somewhere around here, there’s a big wolf – A god-eater, called
Hróðvitnir by the locals; He’s actually bitten off the hand of one of the villagers at their last attempt to cage him up, so I’m going to go and find him, and see if I can get him into this cage trap, so that the rangers can move him to live somewhere else, where he won’t bother people, and people won’t bother him…”

Well gang, its on

mega-camp:

Today is May 20th.   You know what that means?

We’ve passed the last possible cancellation date on the site so hahahaha folks, this is it.  This is really happening.  Come rain or shine, Mega Camp will be there.

This deadline probably means nothing to most of you, but give me a minute here because I have some feels I want to share. 

No less than four people told me this camp was a terrible idea that would never work, but you know what?  None of them were in fandom.  None of them know what it is to be a part of something as special as what the Megamind fandom has done for me.  

So you know what?   

It might still be a terrible idea, but it’s my terrible idea and I’m barreling forward full speed ahead.  

I can’t promise anyone that this won’t turn into a dashcon-like failure, but damn if I don’t personally believe that we can succeed.  

Right now we have over 20 people registered and still space for at least 10 more.   We’re on track financially to meet all our commitments, we have activities (mostly) planned, and food is budgeted for.   My basement is starting to fill with totes full of supplies.   We have spreadsheets.  We have maps.  

Cuz after all, destiny is the path we choose for ourselves.   And I would chose you guys and this fandom, every time.
