Illustrator Pascalle Lepas created a design for a blanket that would make its user appear to be snuggling with Thor and Loki and had it custom printed. She's not sure if she'll sell them, but she certainly makes a compelling pitch for them in this photo!

This Loki & Thor Snuggle Blanket Puts You In The Middle Of A Norse God Sandwich

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

     Does Marvel know about this?

       Does Scandinavia know about this?

    Thor’s (I guess) leg is a corn cob. I can’t figure out what his prosthesis is about.

      That’s Loki, and if you could replace your leg with a corn cob, wouldn’t you? Maybe it’s GMO — one of those new god-corn hybrids.

    If she mass-produced it and posted it to Tumblr, she’d be very wealthy.

       she’ll need the money to pay for all those lawyers.

  • http://twitter.com/#!/Akheloios Akheloios

    Want!!! But does she produce a version with man legs/feet, so I can feel snugly?

  • novium

    Oh, fandom. Sigh. 

  • Preston Sturges

    I like but there’s something wrong about this…..

      In the increasingly unlikely event that I’m ever part of a threesome I sure as hell hope it doesn’t involve a sibling.

         oh come on… Loki’s adopted.

      Yes: would you really want to get between these two?  Sure, they seem mellow for the moment, but….

    Why is Data wearing corn cob pants? 

  • bzishi

    Good and evil. I like it. I think a Cthulhu and FSM one would look good as well.

  • marilove

    This is both terribly ugly and terribly awesome.

  • Elizabeth Richards

    Please make and sell!!!!!! Commenter above is correct, once Tumblr catches wind, she will be set for life.

  • pjcamp

    So Thor sucks his thumb and Loki cops a feel?

    Y’know, if this was a guy with two female superheroes…

  • Bender

    She went through all the trouble to make this thing and then has her husband photograph it with a camera phone? 

    • marilove

      Maybe they don’t have another camera?  Maybe she made it for herself because this is a fun hubby of hers, and not because she wanted to take fancy pictures to please random douches on the internet?
