Loki/OMC, Asgardian prince falls for Midgardian redneck "peasant", adorableness ensues (FOUND)

I want to reread a specific fic, Loki/OMC, but can't seem to find it. All I remember is that the OMC was your stereotypical "redneck", right down to having the name Billy Bob Jim Bob (or something very similar). But he defied stereotypes by being gay (or bi) and falling in love with Loki, and treating him well; Loki, for his part, surprised everyone by falling in love with this uncouth "peasant". The relationship was surprisingly functional and written quite adorably.

I actually think this exact fic was requested by someone else and found here relatively recently, but I can't seem to find that entry. Maybe it was recced or requested in some other comm?

ETA: The fic is The Ugly Duckling by Icemaidenstory. Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] samtyr and [livejournal.com profile] cephrilia!

I know I have this one marked at AO3 but I am in the middle of helping with Sunday family dinner and can't really look. But if you want to dig through my Loki bookmarks at AO3, go ahead (I've only got over 1000 of them, lol! :) My name @ AO3 is laSamtyr . Good luck!

Two other notes that might help: the guy's name is Jim-Bob and the Avengers are in it. Tony ends up in hospital for mocking Loki too. Also, Coulson is alive though he doesn't show up much until the end, iirc.
