It had been a long year, a very long year since the day that they had defeated Loki and the Alien army. While it had been long, traumatic, and painful life had been very good fr the Avengers. Tony had nearly died in a drunken rage when Pepper died a month after he had been sure that he had fixed the Extremis. Steve had been mired in lonely depression until Tony had invited everyone into the tower. Steve had moved in first, desperate for human contact and had gotten together with one of the few females on the team, Krystal, well that's what it looked like anyway. Steve was honestly thinking of proposing to. Her son, JJ was currently dating Tony who was slowly getting over the pain of failing Pepper on top of his neglected and abused childhood. Everyone had been relieved when Phil Coulson proved to be not dead, inhuman on top of that, two months after he'd fallen in battle. A lot of people had been worried about Clint's mental state, Natasha the most. Natasha was working on seducing the shy, brilliant scientist that was Bruce Banner. Things had settled down with everyone living in the tower and now nearly all of them where happy. Thor's depression and Phil's obsessive compulsive tendencies notwithstanding.
Aside form the occasional fight for territory within Avengers Tower, life had been completely peaceful. There had been no massive robots, no giant lizards, no alien invasions, no threat to world peace. Nothing but the chance to get to know each other and spend Tony's very impressive fortune. Tony was, of course, delighted to share his money if it meant his friends where happy. So when Phil called and told them that they where needed at Shield Headquarters right away, they where a little surprised. Hadn't life been peaceful? Aside from the major Crime Bosses who where destroying most of New York, which wasn't an Avengers problem anyway, there had been nothing to do. Still, a call was a call and all of the Avengers trucked out to Shield Headquarters was located. Hopefully they wouldn't need Thor, since the man was gone back to Asgard to do his princely duty to his people. Once they got to Shield it was clear why they had been called. On a large video feed was a very familiar face. Loki. Sitting barely dressed, with a half a dozen other scantily clad men and women.
Thank you for coming so quickly. Fury stated calmly. as you can see, we have in our possession one Loki Odinson. The problem is... he doesn't know that's who he is. Fury admitted. we ran a raid against one of the Crime Lords running most of Manhattans crime syndicate. Fury admitted. Domingo Montoya had those seven people with him at the time. Whether they are his harem, or simple prostitutes we are not sure, since none of them are talking. Fury admitted. Loki has no idea who he is, where he comes from, or what he's capable of. Complete and total amnesia regarding anything that isn't Domingo Montoya, whom he is extremely loyal to. Fury admitted. all Loki would say was that his name was Alexandyr, and that he wanted to go back to Domingo, and that we where evil bastards... Fury admitted with a shrug.
Phil was studying Loki on the screen. Loki was smaller, younger almost. He wasn't so thin he looked sick as he had when he'd tried to invade the earth. His hair was clean and fell to his hips in a smooth braid and he was wearing nothing but a hip wrap with a pair of black lace panties underneath, protecting his modesty... sort of, and a pair of knee high pantyhose. He was handcuffed, both hands cuffed to the wall behind him since he kept trying to attack anyone who walked into the room, and he was clearly sulking. It was a cute sulk at least, he certainly didn't look anything like he did when he was evil. He looked more like a petulant teenager caught with a cigarette than a criminal mastermind and attempted world conqueror.
When is Domingo coming? Loki finally asked, voice younger, softer, smoother, calmer. The person next to Loki shook his head. He's not coming to get us Alexandyr. He's been arrested. the other person admitted, Loki just shook his head. what's that mean? it means they have him in a cage and he's not getting out. another man stated, sulking just as bad as Loki was. Clearly they where Domingo's Harem, loyal as they where.

Krystal looked at the screen eyes concerned. "So Loki's back? Hmm. We should talk to Thor. I'm sure he had a hand in this." She said, Bruce and Clint nodding in agreement. She watched the screen, almost disbelief in her eyes. "I could shift into this Domingo guy and convince him to come to the tower with us." JJ offered, holding onto tony tightly. While he knew the man was mostly stable when it came to the godling, he still had issues. Krystal held unto to Clint with her free arm, the other was around Steve's waist. It was still so weird for her to be shorter than him, even though he had had the serum for almost 70 years now. She still mourned Bucky as well, even if something inside her told her they'd see him soon.
Clint watched the screen, eyes trained on Loki. "He looks so fragile. That's scary in itself." Clint muttered, eyes still trained on the screen. He was trying to get it through his head that that was Loki. The man that had so brutally took over his mind and made him do things he still couldn't shake the guilt of. He looked to coulson. "Coulson, do you think that if JJ did that it would help the situation?" He was uteerely a mess. His lover was back from the dead, and his once master was back as well. This was a little to much for the man to handle, and he leaned into Krystal. He found that for some reason just being near her eased the pain in his head from all this information being thrown at him.
Bruce was next to observe Loki, or rather, his eyes were trained on him. "Hard to believe that's the same guy I smashed into the penthouse at the tower." He mused, chuckling a little to himself, remembering the wheeze that had escaped his mouth after. Inside his head, hulk chuckled as well. "Do I get to smash him again?" Hulk asked inside the genius scientist's head and he answered. "Not this time, big green. Maybe if he misbehaves." He looked to Krystal for a moment, remembering their last session. She had been teaching him ancient moonian personality repression meditation. It was something she was taught on the off chance her sister was murdered. "He'll need therapy, Krys. Its possible the all father wiped his memories." He said, and Krystal simply nodded. She knew that was obvious.
Meanwhile, Thor was on Asgard, feeling weary and missing his friends. The nine realms were now all at peace, he found he really didn't have much joy in Asgard anymore. Not when he brother was alone on midgard. He went to the only place he found comfort since his mother had been murdered. To see heimdal. He knew everything. "How are my friends, gate keeper?" He asked, looking at the man curiously. He really wished to be with them.

Steve nodded. "i'm sure he did." he agreed. "i'm sure he had a good reason for it..." he admitted as he stared at the Loki on the screen. it was so weird to see him like that. "That wouldn't be a good idea." Fury admitted to JJ, shaking his head. "We tried that already, he can tell when a person is Domingo or not." "He saw straight through my illusions." Coulson admitted. "i don't know if it was physical cues or if Loki was unconsciously accessing his magic, but he will know as soon as you walk in that door that your not Domingo." "plus, we want him to trust us. tricking him into the Tower wouldn't be a good start." Natasha stated, waving her hand almost dismissively. it was a hand gesture she used when she was thinking very hard about something. "...he does look Fragile.." he admitted, glancing at Krystal. she knew him well enough to know what that look meant. it meant that Steve wanted to help someone. maybe they could reform Loki.
Coulson reached over and took Clint's hand, offering his lover some comfort. as much as he dared while in front of Fury. not that Fury didn't know they where dating, but it was best not to flaunt it. "wiped his memories?" Steve asked, looking surprised, his head tilted as he considered Loki. "you mean that they made him forget everything on purpose? why?" "to give him a second chance." Natasha mused. "it makes sense. we don't punish people who have amnesia. perhaps this is their version of rehabilitation. wipe the memories, send him to live with the people he wanted to hate, hope it teaches him compassion or whatever." she muttered, her head tilted. "well... time to get to it." she decided, turning on her heal and leaving the rom, only to appear in the video feet, Lok jerking to attention, eyes narrowed, tense, ready for battle, ready to fight. "Alexandyr, was it?" she asked him. "my name is Natasha Romanoff." she introduced, Loki's eyes narrowing. "why should i care?!" he demanded, the room snickering. "You should care. since i'm going to be one of your watchers for the foreseeable future. and one of the people who knew you before Domingo." that made Loki pause, his head cocked to the side as he examined her. "Don't listen to her Xan! she's a filthy cop, they always tell lies! she doesn't know shit about you!" "...she's not lying." Loki stated softly, the room stilling. apparently Loki still retained the ability to tell when a person was lying. it was a part of his innate magic. he just knew, and apparently his 'lie detection skills' was well known to the room.
Heimdall turned to face Thor, his head tilting in a slight greeting. "Greetings Odinson." Heimdall turned back to the great beyond, really it just looked like he was looking off into nothing. "Your friends have all gathered in the Shield Headquarters. they have discovered Loki's existence." he explained to Thor. "apparently, he has become a member of a Harem for a very bad man. he doubts the Avengers and will try to escape them." Heimdall admitted. "but he is fascinated by the as well... aside from this, they are all healthy and happy. there has been no major disturbances to their lives since Phil Coulson's return."

Krystal nodded. "When we get back to the tower I will contact him." She said, knowing the thunder god could use a vacation from his home world. While she knew he loved it, she also knew his deeper secrets, like that of his love for his brother. It was deeper than brotherly. JJ nodded. "Alright then uncle Phil." He said looking to coulson it was no secret that agent could son had always treated Krystal like his daughter, though no one aside from them knew the reason. Her father had been the high fae prince of the dark court, and had been friends with Phil, though his name had been rath roiben rye then. She had never called him that in this time though. Saying a Faye's full name could allow you to control them. She had never wanted to do that. Phil was like a second father to her. She kissed Steve's head. "We'll help him, Stevie." She soothed, knowing exactly what he was thinking. The good captain had never been very good at hiding his emotions.
Krystal was next to step into the room, smiling lightly at Loki. "Hello alexandyr. I'm krystal. Its nice to meet you." She said in that same sweet tone she used when her son was upset, smiling at the godling. "I've known you all your life, frosty." She said, purposefully using the nickname she had given him when they were children playing on the moon. It could be upwards of 110 degrees outside, and he'd still be an IceCube. She knew that feeling for sure. "Do you think you can trust me, Alex? I mean you no harm, and I'm not a cop. Never was. I am, however a dentist." She joked a little scanning the other people in the room, hoping that some shred of him even if it were just his magic, would recognize her.
Clint watched closely still, worried for both Natasha and Krystal as the walked in to see Loki. The idea of being that close to that man made him remember the nightmares of how Loki used to abuse him sexually under the thrall. He hadn't minded at the time, having only wanted to please his boss, quit now it made chills go up his spine. He squeesed coulson's hand and nodded at Natasha's deduction. "Yes, that does make sense. Once he has learned people are valuable his memories would return, perhaps?" He said, and Bruce just nodded. It was a possible theory, but they wouldn't know for sure without actually talking to either Thor or the all father himself. That wouldn't exactly work, because Krystal was the only one capable of getting there.
Thor nodded. "That is good." He said, knowing his brother well enough that if he wanted to disappear, he would. Even without his memories, Loki would be able to leave. He was quite stealth like that. "I wish there was a way I could tell Krystal to talk to him. She has quite a way with him. Even possessed by the tesseract he would talk to her as a person." He admitted, tryly just wishing again to be with his friends. While he loved sif and the warriors three, he missed midgard. He particularly missed Krystal, having know her the longest.
human
Steve nodded. "perhaps he'll stop sulking if he sees his brother." he agreed with a smile. he hadn't seen it until Krystal had pointed it out, but it made sense now that Thor loved Loki in more than a platonic way. Phil could only smile when she called him uncle. he had loved her like a daughter for most of her life. the second he'd laid eyes on her and been named Godfather he had loved her like the child he'd never been able to have. his name, Wrath Robin was not his Full Name. but when used by someone who knew intimate details of his life and person and soul, like Krystal, to make him do as she bit. he was glad she had never used his name. the fact that he had trusted her with even half of his True Name was speaking of deep and unfathomable trust. "it's alright Clint." Phil murmured, bending his head and kissing his lovers neck. "i shan't let him have you again. he won't have the chance. i wil place special magics upon you tonight so he cannot even try." he promised.
Loki stared at her, suspiciously calm as he examined her. "i don't know you and you are an Enemy of my Master, Domingo Montoya." Loki stated as soon as he realized they where trying to manipulate him, even if they where telling the truth. "He is the one who took me in after i found myself naked and hungry on the streets. diry and sore and sick. He is the one who gave me food, and life, and purpose." Loki lifted his head, as proud as ever. "Domingo Montoya is my Master, and he will come for me, and all of you will burn and bleed for keeping me, us! from him!" Loki hissed before turning his head away from them. part of him did recognize her, but his loyalty to Domingo was deep and beyond such things as logic. "...well... that didn't work." Natasha sighed. "... we might have to take him by force." she admitted, studying Loki who scoffed. "i will wait here for My Master. he will come for me." Loki stated with a sniff.
"Heimdal smiled a little. "she is already working with him. he i a stubborn brat still and has denied her. i am sure things will work out." he admitted. "the Allfather has given you leave to go." Heimdall admitted. "you should leave. go and be with your friends on Midgard. you miss-them, you are pining, everyone can see it. go on, see if you cannot bring some humanity into Loki." Thor wouldn't know the answer to the question though, because the All father had not told Thor which spell he'd used. Loki would never remember his past life until he had felt as much joy and love as he had caused pain and misery. Loki would not remember until he had a life worth living with people willing and able to help him through the guilt and agony and shame. not only over what he'd tried to do on Midgard... but also the pain that Loki had suffered at the hands of Asgard and it's people. Loki thought he loved Domingo, and maybe he did. but Domingo did not love him back. Loki was just too naive to know it.

"I'm sure he will. Though I do not think it will make much difference to Loki. He can not remember himself." She said wisely before she smiled at Phil and JJ. She was glad he had survived. It was painful to have to keep watching people she loved die, especially someone like Phil or Bucky. She knew that he had never given her his full name, but she didn't mind. She would never use it unless of dier emergency. She loved and respected him to much to ever make him submit to her in anyway. That was not the kind of person she was. She'd rather die than control someone by force like that. Clint shuddred as Phil kissed his neck, and he leaned into the old fae prince. "O-okay. I trust you, Phil." He said, studdering a little simply from embarrassment.
Krystal smiled a little. "I am not an enemy of him, Alexandyr. I do not wish to fight him or any other if I can avoid it. I am sure he did, and that is good, I will thank him for that." She said in that soothing tone, knowing he knew she was indirectly manipulating him. If he had his memories he probably would have jumped in her arms. Even under the tesseract's power, he still loved her. Not in the sense of Steve or bucky, more like Clint, who saw her like the sister he had never had. She smiled at him again. "Why don't you let me help you alexandyr? We'll have great fun, pull pranks and make mischief." She said, knowing even without his memories, Loki would be intruiged by that possibility. She smirked a little. "I promise it'll be lots of fun, and theyr'll be white chocolate." She said, her smirkish grin widening. Krystal looked at him, hope in her glacial blue eyes. "I am your friend, alexandyr. Nothing could change that. Please, trust me? I really mean no harm." She finished, her eyes sad yet hopeful as she looked into his emerald ones.
Thor's expression brightened. "That is good. Can you open a portal for me?" He asked, smiling lightly. He was ready to return. While he loves Asgard, he missed midgard. The place was full of fascinating people, animals, and foods. He had missed his pop tarts, all his friends, and his brother, whom he loves very deeply. For Thor, he wasn't just his brother. He was an amazing and sweet person, and very fragile. He wanted to protect his brother.

Phil nodded. it was true, Loki wouldn't care really, not one lick about who Thor was. Phil smiled down at his cute little mate and gently stroked his knuckles. "there is no reason to be embarrassed My Heart." he promised, smiling at Clint. "he is not the same man as he was. i know some stories about Loki as well... he has suffered a lifetime of abuse, abuse that no one stopped and even blamed him for." he admitted, stroking Clint's hair now as well. "he has a chance to redeem himself now. i think we should give him that chance. i know it will be very hard for you, My Heart. but if you need, we can move out of the tower for the duration of Loki's stay. you don't have to even look at him if that is your will."
Loki paused and turned to examine her again, the room shifting nervously. clearly most of them took their cues from Loki, indicating that he was 'first wife' of sorts. he was the leader of the Harem, in charge of keeping order between the lovers. she wanted to thank Domingo? how strange since everyone else in this accursed place kept telling him he could curse his Masters name. he paused, examining her intently, as if trying to read her soul before he nodded. "okay." "Alexandyr! you can't!" "Silence!" Loki hissed, voice dangerous and the Harem cringed. "i do not Abandon my Master." Loki assured them. "These people know who i was. perhaps i was someone who could be more useful to Domingo." that was a scary thought, a crime lord with the power of limitlessness magic at his fingertips. good thing Domingo was behind bars for the rest of his unnatural life. he stood up, the shackles slipping easily from his wrists, making Fury sputter in anger. the blasted Godling hadn't even used magic! clearly they where really going to have to watch Loki this time around. "Co not touch me." Loki ordered when Natasha moved to hold onto his arm, lest he slip away. they couldn't be sure Loki wasn't just going to run off and break Domingo from jail after all. she had no doubt he could do it, magic or no magic.
"Of Course My Prince." Heimdall promised, moving to stand in the appropriate spot. the Rainbow Bridge had taken a long time to repair, but it was fixed now and Heimdall no longer had to waste limited stores of black magic to send Thor to earth and bring him back. "Be safe, My Prince. i will call you when you are being summoned back." he promised as he waved Thor through. he would be dropped off, as always, on the Avengers 'landing pad'. the same one that Tony used when he landed his Iron Man suit and the same one Shield Agents used when they where coming back from a mission on a smaller jet.
gpt
Clint nodded. "I agree, Phil. After all, I got a second chance." He said, relax in as Phil played with his hair, sighing softly. The fae had always found ways to keep Clint calm. He gave his lover a light kiss, blushing, even though everyone in the room knew about the couple and supported them. "No, I would rather stay, love. I can keep an eye on him by using the ducts." He explained, leaning into Phil a bit. He needed to keep calm, and cuddling into his lover helped. Bruce looked up. "Abused? That explains a lot. Poor guy. I can understand that." He said, watching the screen.
Krystal smiled a little. "Good. It will all work out for the better, alexanyr." She said, watching as the cuffs fell off. "Nat don't" she almost ordered, looking to the other female avenger. She was second in command after all, and not just because she was captain america's girlfriend. Her thousands of years of life served well for her to learn many tactics be them forceful or subtle. She smiled at Loki. "Come take my hand, and we'll go meet the rest of your new friends, okay?" She asked, looking to the rest of the harem. "You will all find happiness. Mark my words." She said simply, a prediction as she tentatively reached for the godlings hand.
Thor smiled. "Thank you gate keeper and I will be." He said, as he smiled again, stepping through the portal and landing on the pad at the tower, walking to the door. "Lord Jarvis, I am home." He told the AI, wishing to be let into the common part of the tower. He was glad to be back at the tower, where he was sure his friends would appear again soon.
human
Phil shook his head. "no second chance was needed my love, it was not your fault." he promised, stroking the man's hair before looking up at Bruce. "from what i understand, Loki has lived life being at the mercy of people stronger than him. magically and physically Loki has been brutalized, beaten, hurt and since those people where never punished, Loki probably came to believe that was the way things where done and then couldn't understand why HE was being punished when he did the same as was done to him." Phil admitted. "this is all supposition of course, being that i was not there to witness it myself, but Lady Mab has and she is the one who explained all of this to me. i cannot help but pity that poor creature." he admitted. "i don't think Thor even knows how fucked up Loki's life has been."
"very well." Natasha agreed as she moved away from Loki. Natasha had hated Krystal when they first met until Krystal had proven that her position had been well earned. Krystal was the only person Natasha always listened to, even Captain America didn't get that honor. sure she'd listen to him in battle, but anyplace else Natasha did what she wanted and that was that. Loki narrowed his eyes at Krystal, suspicious and wary of her. he knew there was something... off about her. he didn't know it was Magic, and that she was basically an alien, he just knew that she triggered his flight or fight response. "...these are my friends. i need no others." Loki stated sweeping his hand to indicate the Harem. he was a stubborn bastard, but at least he wasn't viscous or mean anymore.
"Welcome Home Sir." Jarvis piped, the sound of clicking reaching Thor's ears, indicating that Thor was now allowed entrance. "The Team has been called to Shield and are not at home. please make yourself at Home. there is Ale in the fridge and pop tarts in your Cabinet." because there where so many people in the tower, each person was assigned a specific Cabinet in the Community Kitchen so people weren't constantly eating each others snacks. this was started because Tony had gone in to get his favorite snack and found every last one eaten by Steve. each Avenger had a clearly marked Cabinet and Mini fridge to stash their own hoard of goodies, and there was three large fridges and massive pantries that held the Community goodies for making dinners and such. typically it was Steve and Phil who did all of the cooking, mostly because they enjoyed it but also because they didn't burn anything they tried to cook.
gpt
Clint nodded. "Okay." He said softly, though there was an unsure edge to the words. Bruce looked at Phil. "Ah, I see. That sounds brutal. Poor guy." He said as he looked to Phil and then back to the screen, sympathy in his eyes. It really did explain why Loki was the way he was, along with the tesseract. Clint looked at his lover. "I have a theory, too. What if the tesseract was the real reason he attacked earth? Like if he didn't really control the chituari, that they controlled him?" He asked, looking contemplative, Bruce nodded. "Its possible, hawk."
Krystal nodded at Natasha, smiling at her. She knew how Natasha had felt about her when they first met, but as soon as she proved herself the two had become like sisters. She could sense Loki's unease. "You have nothing to fear frosty, really. I'll explain as soon as we get back to the tower." She told him, taking his hand. She smiled at him. "Well, sometimes more friends are good." She said, leading him out with Natasha to introduce everyone. "Well, you've already met Natasha, but this is Steve, Clint, Phil, Bruce, Tony, and lastly, my son, JJ. Say hi everyone." She said with a bright smile, and Clint and Bruce said hi, Bruce smiling lightly. Clint still looked unsure, so he clung to Phil, but said hello all the same.
Thor stepped in smiling. "Thank you, lord Jarvis. It is good to be back." The thunder god bellowed as he grabbed a box of pop tarts, opening the fist bag, and putting them in the toaster carefully. "Jarvis, please toast my pop tarts?" He asked, sitting at the table with a large bottle of ale, simply relaxing. "Yes, I know they are at shield, heimdal told me before I left Asgard. I came to see lady Krystal and to keep after Loki. I worry for him." He said, looking to the toaster hopefully.
human
Phil smiled at Clint, kissing his temple. "yes indeed. i don't know all the details, but rape, dismemberment and having his lips sewn shut has been mentioned in conjecture with MR. Odinson." Phil admitted softly. "there has been mention that Loki's children had also been murdered." he admitted, making Steve jerk violently. "Loki has Children?" "...he used to." Phil admitted, making Steve go pale at the implications. "Christ..." Steve whispered, voice so soft you almost couldn't hear him. that was awful, and if the Chitauri had been even halfway controlling Loki... it would explain why they had decided to wipe his memories instead of punishing him. if Loki hadn't been in control of his own actions, coupled with the life he'd lived, how could they punish him? especially if Thor and Odin loved Loki despite all of the pain and suffering the Godling had caused.
Loki's eyes narrowed again. "Tower?" he demanded. Loki had read enough fairy tales to think that Towers was where they kept people locked up. "it's a skyscraper." Natasha explained. "where the Avengers live. it's known as Avengers Tower because Tony Stark is weird." Loki just blinked at her, his ruffled feathers soothed. "we all live there." Natasha continued. "you'll live there with us." she admitted, examining him. he didn't need to be able to read minds to know what she was thinking. they where watching him because he was dangerous. good, it was right that they feared him. "i suppose it's nice to meet you." Loki stated as he examined them. "i am Alexandyr." he stated simply. "no last name?" Steve asked, Loki shrugging. "i do not require one." "...well.. shall we get going?" Phil asked. between him and Krystal, they could take the entirety of the Avengers to the landing pad through a portal, just like Thor had done.
"It is good to have you back Sir." Jarvis agreed. "Of course Sir." Jarvis agreed as the toaster turned on, seemingly by itself. a moment later and the toaster popped and a tiny robot hand plucked up two more Poptarts and repeated the process. even Tony's toaster was weird. "My Sensors indicate that they are Returning Sir." Jarvis piped up suddenly. sensing the incoming gathering of magic.
gpt
Clint shuddered. "Holy hell. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually feel bad for him." He said, watching the screen closely. Bruce grimaced. "That's just awful. His children too? No wonder Odin wiped his memories." He stated, but sadly Natasha wasn't in the room for him to lean on, so he settled for JJ, who he was very close to. The man in question wrapped an arm around his ferns shoulders. "That's just scary. Really makes you think." The half fae looking as if his heart could be ripped out at any minute. JJ was a very sensitive man for being as old as he is. He would be 70 soon, but still retained the look of a 25 year old because of his mother's DNA.
Krystal smiled at Loki. "You'll like it there. Its very modern, and we have an AI that does our bidding. You should be able to meet him and Thor when we get there. Thor was off planet, but now he's back." She explained, following them into the room. JJ smiled at the man. "Hello alexandyr. I'm James. You can call me JJ though. Everyone does." He said with a bright smile as his mother gave Steve a soft kiss on the lips before nodding at Phil. "'Yes, that is a good idea, uncle Phil." She said as she helped Phil open the portal between shield and the tower. She took Loki's hand again and smiled. "Its alright. Just a bit of magic. You will get used to it." She said as she stepped through with him, smelling pop tarts coming from inside the tower. "Yup. Thor's definitely home." She mused, as JJ and Clint came through next, followed by Bruce. She knew Phil would have to come through last because he was the opener of the portal.
Thor smiled. "It is good to be back, and thank you most kindly, Jarvis." He said, smiling to no one in particular, as he sat on the couch and waited for his friends, and Loki. "That is good, Jarvis. I am glad." He said as Krystal came in, smiling at him as she out a white chocolate bar out of her cabinet. "Here alexandyr, try this." She said as she got one for herself, the cabinet magically restocking itself.
human
Phil nodded. "he's messed up. that doesn't give him the right to do what he did to people, but it explains why he might have done it." Phil admitted. glad that the Avengers would be more willing to help Loki after a brief history lesson. granted Phil didn't know for a fact that Loki had suffered all of that, but his Mother rarely lied about such things. he had no doubt that Loki had suffered so. he looked at JJ, knowing the others empathy was on overdrive. unlike what most thought, the Fey where not nearly as emotionless as they portrayed. in fact they where much more emotional than humans where. each feeling was deeply felt, be it happiness, pain, or sadness. even a half Fey had been known to pine to death if their lover died or left them. even a half fey had been known to slaughter in defense of a wounded innocent.
"...AI?" Loki asked, looking curious now. even without his memories, Loki was a curious little fellow and was always getting into something to figure out how it worked, why it did that, what it was for. Domingo had adored Loki's childlike exuberance and brought Loki something new to explore every time Loki had exhausted the previous gift. "Yup! Jarvis, Just a Very Intelligent System!" Tony bragged, because he was Tony. "I made him myself!" "You're Tony Stark!" Loki gasped, making a beeline for the man. "your work on Thermal Nucleon Dynamics was legendary! and the way you turned it from a weapon into an energy source was a piece of Art!" Loki baffled, startling Tony. clearly Loki still retained an extraordinary amount of intelligence. soon the two where babbling back and forth about mechanics, physics, and Technology as if they where old friends. he was still babbling to Tony as he examined the portal warily. "Magic isn't real. it's just fairy tales and stories." he scoffed as he examined the Portal intently before curiosity overcame him and he stepped through, Steve rolling his eyes. "he's going to be a handful...." Natasha sighed. "yes he is." she groaned.
Loki studied the bar in his hands and glanced at her as if she was stupid. "i have had Chocolate before you know." he stated as he sucked on a slender piece in his mouth. even the knowledge that it was probably drugged had not kept him from eating it. "Hey Thor! Buddy! welcome back!" Tony chirped, delighted to have the big guy back home even as Loki curiously studied the Toaster which was feeding more pop-tarts into itself. "fascinating! remarkable design... why on earth do you have a toaster that does this? Laziness? or is it because there is so many people here that you can't all work it at the same time? how does it know when it's made enough? does it? or does it just keep going until it runs out of bread? er... Pop-tarts? how does it know which setting to use?" "...handful." Natasha groaned, already feeling exhausted. Tony just laughed, delighted by Loki's interest in technology and started to explain how and why and everything else.

Clint and JJ both nodded. "That is quite true uncle Phil. From my many years as a psychiatrist, it is very likely that his treatment was part of the reason he lashed out on the world, and the chituari only added to it. It does not excuse his actions, but it does allow as a window in which to start, even if he does not remember." The man stated wisely, and Clint nodded. He didn't really understand what JJ had just said, but he knew the man was probably right in his conclusions. He and Phil were rarely wrong. He looked to Phil, grey blue eyes sad. "I hate that the realms have been so cruel to him. We should all give him love. I may not be john Lennon, but, his thoughts are true. All you need is love." JJ added, and Bruce nodded. Clint looked a bit unsure, but he nodded as well. "I will try. He isn't the same person anymore." The man stated, holding unto his lover for support.
Krystal smiled. "Yes, artificial intelligence. I'm sure if you ask tony he will he show you around Jarvis." She said, smiling at Loki's reaction to the man in question. There was a slight jealousy to JJ's eyes, but he smiled anyway, knowing that tony and Loki would only ever be good friends. He had mostly inherited his mother's ability of fore site. Bruce chuckled a little as he watched the two men babble, adding his own imput here or there as he wrapped an arm lightly around Natasha, blushing as red as a tomato. He really liked her, even if she sometimes scared him shirtless. They were a good match really, if you thought about it, a brave and cunning assassin and a sweet yet fearsome scientist.
Krystal smiled at him. "Oh, well, this is white chocolate. Its different." She said before she chuckled and raised an eyebrow. "You think I would drug you? No, these are from my personal stash. No drugs involved." She added, smiling at him as she took a bit of hers. "Friends! It is good to see you all!" Thor exclaimed happily, pulling them all into a big bear hug before Loki began to become fascinated with the toaster. "It is good to see he is experiencing some joy." Thor told Krystal who nodded. "With any luck, he'll become happy here and forget the man who was simply using him." She said, smiling a little as Thor nodded, agreeing.

Phil nodded. "i never took psychology." he admitted. "just common sense, but it's nice that someone qualified agrees with me." he admitted. he was extremely proud of JJ's accomplishments. JJ was just as important to him as Krystal was. family in everything but blood. "even if he does start to remember, it will make it easier to help him." he admitted. "though i don't think he will be remembering anytime soon. there's no telling which memory bind Odin used on him." Phil admitted. "in any case, perhaps we should try for friendship before we try for Love?" Phil asked, looking amused. "he's still very volatile, and extremely loyal to this Domingo. we will have to work slowly with him." he admitted as he wrapped both arms around Clint, holding him gently yet firmly. offering him comfort, as much as he could.
"...remarkable." Loki admitted. Loki himself had no physical interest in Tony. the man was entirely too scrawny and entirely too submissive for Loki to even consider. Loki liked a man with muscles and purpose and Power... though, maybe that's just because that was what Domingo was. Natasha grinned, delighted at the contact. she'd been working on Bruce for almost a year! now she just had to get him to accept something more than a kiss and she'd be set for life! a man like Bruce was loyal, she knew once she got him to understand she wasn't going to leave, he'd love her forever, just as she intended to do. she had never believed the fairy tales of true love and soul mates, but what else could this possibly be?
"your the bad guys. of course you'd drug me." Loki stated simply as he blinked at the huge giant coming at him, quickly darting out of the way so he wasn't caught up in that massive group hug. he spend the next hour dismantling the toaster to see for himself how it worked, Tony sitting right next to him the entire time and pointing out why that was there, what that part did, just all around technogeeking out. "i'm not so sure that Domingo was just using him." Steve admitted softly. "a man who gains that much loyalty from seven different men... while i don't think Domingo loved any of them, might even have dropped them if he thought it might save him, i think that he treated them well... had some sort of affection for them. like they where pets or something." "some of the things Domingo said affirms that idea. he made the police promise to 'treat his pets well'. they where not loved but they where favored." Phil agreed. "i think Domingo is of the idea he's going to get out. crack legal team and all that..." here Phil smirked. "a shame it's not the American Legal system he's in."

JJ grinned. "Thanks uncle Phil. It means a lot." He said as he smiled at the fae. His mind was swirling with many different ideas as he watched both Loki and the couple in front of him. He nodded. "Good point." He told the older man, looking around. He chuckled at tony and Loki's cuteness. It was good tony was only his. He mused a bit, his mind working much like that of his lover's. Always changing. "Hmm, maybe we can use an aging potion on Clint so he stays young like this for you, cause you know, you don't age" he said, and Clint grinned at that. He liked the idea of staying with his lover for as long as Phil would have him. "I'd do it, Phil. Stay with you until you ordered me away." He told the other gently kissing him. Clint loved Phil so so much. He couldn't imagine life without him (again), and couldn't bear the pain of having his lover deal with his death. He could help being hurt in action, but on most days he usually only came home with a few scratches here or other which either JJ or Phil took care of. JJ was more than just a psychiatrist after all. He was also a bio chemist and a medical doctor, having had enough span of time to go to 3 different schools to get those degrees. He had started with Harvord medical school in the early 8o's fascinated by everything, and always keeping up his education, psychiatry was next, having known his lover, who at the time was simply hi best friend, needed it, then lastly biochemistry under Bruce's tutelage and another fine school. The man was very accomplished. "We will start small, but I believe just by the way he's so fascinated by tony, we will be alright" JJ deduced, looking to Phil and Clint.
Krystal smiled as she watcedd the two men babble on, and winked at Bruce as she cuddled into Steve.she knew the quiet tempered genius had it bad for Natasha, but he was to timid because the hulk to ever act on his feelings to much. He put an earn around Natasha and kissed her head, still not all that comfortable with PDA. He shuffled a little as Krystal asked him a question, but nodded. She had asked him if he would ever consider a more vigorus form of meditation. He'd do anything to reign over the hulk enough to be able to marry her. His love was so pure. They were soulmates, if you asked Krystal, and since she was the one everyone came to with love problems, she would know.
Krystal snorted. "I have no reason to drug you, frosty." She said simply before she and the rest of the team were entrapped in a bear hug. "Thunderball! You're home!!" She said excitedly, smiling. "Alexandyr, this is Thor. Thor, Alexander." She introduced, and Thor smiled. "It is good to meet you, alexandyr. I am Thor, crown prince of Asgard." He said, smiling at the man in question. He knew better than to call him Loki. Thor quietly watched alexandyr and tony pull apart the toaster as he ate pop tarts, smiling. He was glad to see his brother so happy and full of wonder. JJ smiled and walked over. "You almost done love? I want cuddles." He said as he wrapped his arms around the slenderer man, hugging him close to him as he kissed his shoulder chastely.

Phil looked startled. "there is such a thing?" he asked curiously. unlike Krystal and JJ, Phil had never entered a formal schooling situation. he knew how to read and he knew how to run a country and Shield through lessons at his mother and fathers knees, but he had never been schooled in any form or fashion so he knew relatively little about the advances in any of the realms unless someone told him. not to say he was stupid, as he was anything but. in fact he was very fast to learn, he just got bored and wandered off when he tried to learn one thing for too long that was all. most Fey where like that. it was only when their wild spirits where tempered with other blood, such as Human, or moonian that they where able to control themselves enough to truly focus and excel in anything they set their minds to. Coulson could rarely concentrate long enough to do anything more than a days worth of paperwork, something that only took the skilled Fey a half an hour or so, before he was flitting from project to project like a demented ADHD toddler on caffeine. the only thing he could truly focus on, was Clint.
"Your right, he is fascinated with Tony." Phil agreed. "or rather, Tony's intelligence. Loki has always been curious from what i understand. he seams to have traded his passion in Magic, for a passion in technology. not that their all that different." Phil admitted. honestly, Magic and technology where two sides of the same coin. different paths taken led to very vast differences, but they both could still be connected. where the Asgardians and the Midgardians to join their knowledge, the two realms would have no equal. not even the Fey would be able to compete then. probably was the reason why Odin was so careful about letting the two realms mix. he didn't like it when one realm had too much power over another. that's when bad things happened.
"of course you do." Loki scoffed as he watched Natasha smile and shove her hand into Bruce's back pocket. something she did often simply because it always made him blush, and she loved to see his blush. it was so cute! "...sure. whatever..." Loki stated, examining Thor, clearly thinking them all insane for introducing him to a 'god' and a 'prince'. clearly he thought Thor insane and the rest of the tower enabling him. oh well, the man seamed harmless enough. "oooh cuddles!" Tony agreed, hopping to his feet and following JJ, Loki chuckling as he resumed putting the toaster back together again. it was an easy enough process. "oh!... Thor? would you show L.. Alexandyr to his rooms?" Tony asked, realizing that he hadn't done that. "it's level Fifty Nine." Thor's floor was above Loki, and Phil and Clint's was underneath Loki, giving the Godling somewhere easy to access if he needed help and giving them the ability to keep a close eye on the godling.

JJ nodded. "Mom designed it. Its a mix of fae and old moonian magic. Used to feed it to dad and uncle Steve to keep them from dying on her. She's pretty twitchy about that. She might even be able to alter it so to make you younger as well, uncle Phil.'' He mused, smiling at the couple. He was glad that his uncle had found Clint. They were so good together. Clint balanced Phil in a way that JJ balanced Tony. The two just worked well, here was really no other way to describe the love between Phil and Clint. "Yes, I think I can alter the formula enough to de-age you, uncle Phil." He pondered, the wheels in his mind turning, trying to decide the best way to do that without accidentally turning the full blooded fae into a 9 year old for a day, as adorable as Clint and he would probably think that would be. Clint smiled. "You really think you can alter it JJ? You're mom's really picky about who has her potions. He said, have watched Krystal in her potions lab many a times as he crawled through the vents. He was actually quite fascinated with potions, but Krystal was never into showing him. JJ nodded at Clint. "Yes, I think I can. I am a biochemist with 70 years worth of my mom teaching me how to work my magkc and potions. I'm very familiar with the potion as well. That helps" he explained, and Clint smiled. "Well, okay. I trust you."
JJ nodded. "Yes, he really is. Mom's told me stories of what he was like when they were children, and Odin traded with grandma on the moon." He explained, sighing a little. He had always wanted to meet his grandmother and grandfather. Especially his grandfather. Krystal had often told him stories of life on the moon, and how the kingdom was destroyed by jealous eartian's and an evil entity named metalia. He smiled a little. "Uncle Phil, will you tell me some stories about grandfather later?" He asked, blue grey eyes wide with curiosity and hope. Clint smiled, hugging Phil close to him as he pulled them over to the couch, Phil in his lap, his head resting on the leaner man's shoulder. Bruce blushed as natasha put her hand in his back pocket. He kissed her head; smiling a little. He really loved her, but he was to embarrassed to admit it to his more or less girlfriend.
JJ chuckled as tony asked over to the couch, and he joined him, sitting in the handsome genius's lap. He kissed him slowly and with full of love, as he ran a chaste hand down the other's chest. Thor smiled. "That is good, and I will. Do follow me, alexandyr. We must take elevator down a few floors. I am on the floor above you. Do not hesitate to ask me for anything." Her told the other as he began smiling brightly. Thor lead alexandyr to the elevator and showed him his rooms, and it had many things tony thought the godling would like, despite not knowing he was a godling. Krystal had had some imput too, having painted the walls green and gold, and adding a lab. All in all it was a good room, and they all hoped he would feel at home. Krystal cuddled into Steve, giving him a passionate kiss. "Love, why don't want we go back to our rooms?" Krystal asked, a small smirk on her lips. She wanted to ravage him.
human
Phil smirked. "JJ. i'm a Fey. we don't age and we certainly don't look like this." he stated, indicating himself. Clint had seen Phil's 'True Form' but out of everyone in the tower, Only Krystal had seen it as well. he usually kept himself under spell and glamor at all times because he didn't want the humans catching on that he wasn't human. he had a good life here and he intended to keep it that way until he had no choice but to take up his Throne. "i had forgotten you hadn't ever seen me without my Glamor. here.." he pulled out his wallet and took out a picture of himself. for a moment it looked like a typical human picture, but as soon as JJ touched it it shimmered and turned into aFey Prince."this was taken a few weeks ago at the Castle. Mother insisted." he grumbled. "i had to get all dressed up in royal garb and everything. it was a 'royal' pain in the ass." he admitted with a chuckle. "however, anything you could make for Clint would be greatly appreciated. i'd like to have him with me when i have to take the Crown in a few hundred years." he admitted.
"your grandmother was a witty one." he agreed with a smile. "they where exceptional people." he admitted. "i'd be glad to. he and i used to hunt on the Windland Moors together. i'll tell you about the time he saved my life." he decided. "you'll get a kick out of that." he admitted with a smile as he let Clint manhandle him. Natasha chuckled as she watched them, leaning into Bruce simply because she could as Tony snuggled into JJ and whispered filthy things into the young moon prince's ear. Tony was, after all, perpetually horny. he hummed as he was kissed, snuggling into the other. "Thanks Thor!" Tony chirped as Steve looked at Krystal and flushed. he was always blushing even though he was nodding as he stood up, holding her hand.
"...i will keep that in mind." Loki promised as he followed Thor, examining the other curiously. it was pretty obvious that Loki was checking the man out. he blinked at the room, looking surprised. he had expected... a room. a bed, a chair, a TV. something small and something that locked from the outside. he blinked as he looked around. this was as impressive as his rooms at Domingo's. only he didn't have to share it with six other men and Domingo. plus there where books, all kinds of books. Books on things he wanted to know about, books that where entertaining, books that looked fascinating. and there was a lab of some sort too, he wasn't sure what that was for, but he'd look into it. there was even a kitchen and a massive living room, Loki wouldn't have to leave if he didn't want to. he could just eat there in his room, and that was good because sometimes he was moody and had headaches and didn't want to deal with anyone and would snap and snarl even if they didn't deserve it. Loki moved over to a pile of interesting things, little robots and pieces of technology that Loki could take apart and play with all he wanted. he was ignoring Thor now, a look of delight on his face as he settled into the little workshop station and started playing with one of the mechanical wonders.

JJ looked at the picture confused for a moment before it changed. His eyes widened a little. "Wow, you're handsome." He stated simply, knowing at that moment tony was to busy to notice. He wouldn't ever pursue Phil though, and not because he was his uncle. He couldn't do that to Clint or to tony. He loved them both to much. He chuckled a little at Phil's next few comments. "It does look like a hassle. I don't like wearing my princely garb either. Its to itchy." He commented before he asked a question. "I know mom's the reigning blue moon monarch, but is she also in line for the dark court throne?" That had been something he had been curious about for a long time, but his mother hadn't known for sure either. He knew that his grandfather had a brother, but he wasn't sure if that gave his great uncle Fiore the thrown or not. He had never understood fae politics.
JJ's eyes lit up at the prospect of hearing stories about his grandfather from someone who had known him so well. While his mother knew him very well, she had only had 18 years with him, where as Phil had had centuries. " so i've been told. I'd like that a lot. Mom tells me some things, but she cries a lot. She really misses him." He said, looking rather sad. He had not even known them and he missed them. JJ smiled and blushed a little as tony whispered nasty things in his ear, smiling a little. His boyfriend was such a horn dog, but then again, so was he, having Bucky's DNA in him, but it still made him smile. Bruce leaned into Natasha, whispering in her ear in perfect russian. He had learned it just for her. "Come with me to my room? I have something I want to ask you." He whispered in her ear, hoping she would. If he didn't ask her now, he didn't thing he ever would. Tonight just felt right though, right for him to ask her something he'd wanted to since they met in kalcutta.
Krystal smiled as she got up, kissing JJ's head chastely as was her nightly ritual before taking Steve's hand again, squeezing it lightly. She took that opportunity to pop them back to their rooms which she had decorated romantically for him especially. She smirked, "Jarvis? Thesongplease?" She asked as the machine whirred and she took her hands in his. "Dance with me, captain." She said, smirking as the music started. It was their song, the one she used to request the band play when Steve and she were alone. She gave him a light kiss as she wrapped him around her, leading him.
Thor smiled as he looked around the rooms. That was Krystal and tony, always with an at tension to detail. "You can spend as much time as you like here, but tony has also given you permission to play around in R&D. He seems to think you'll have some ideas on improvements to some of his tech." The thunder god told his brother, watching him attack the machines happily. He was glad that Loki was getting some enjoyment out of the world. He smiled. "Krystal and tony designed this room from what they knew about you before. If you see her, please tell her you like it? She's very insecure sometimes." He explained to the man as he watched, content to just be near Loki, but needing some sleep. "I'm going to leave you now. Don't hesitate to ask Jarvis if you want or need something. That's what he's there for." Thor said before leaving Loki alone in his rooms.

Phil chuckled and nodded. "all of the Fey are." he admitted. "my clothing is not itchy, but it is rather restraining at times." he admitted. "one could not do battle, in either the field or the bedroom, wearing clothing like that." he admitted as he took the picture back, watching it change into his human appearance again before tucking it back into his wallet. "the Dark Throne is Matriarchal by primary." he admitted. "as she is the last Female of Dark Blood yes, she is in fact the Primary Heir. when the Dark Queen dies Krystal will inherit, unless the Dark Queen, or the Dark King sires another daughter. should Krystal deny her role as the Dark Queen then Prince Fiore will take up the Throne until either he, or Krystal has a daughter. depending on which daughter is born first will say who gets the crown." he admitted. "the Winter and Summer courts are ruled the same." he admitted. "the only throne that is Matriarchal is the High Crown and Throne. in which i am the sole Heir to." he admitted. "since there is no fighting between the Summer and Winter, or the Light and Dark courts i have no need to take my place." he admitted. "i know i will have to eventually but i enjoy my time on the earth." he admitted.
Tony sulked as he realized JJ was intending onignoring his hard on. the jerk. granted, Tony loved orgasm denial but he'd like to have a little attention at least. "Jay Jaaaaaaaaay." he whined, pressing himself tight against the others back, plastering himself against his lover. "i'm hooooorny...."
Natasha looked up at Bruce and offered him a smile. "of course." she replied in her perfect fluid Russian and took his hand as she led the way. excitement battling with nerves as she wondered what he wanted to talk about. it was either really good, or really bad.
Steve smiled at her and stroked her hair away from her face, squeaking as they where 'popped'. "Christ! you know i hate it when you do that." he complained, though his eyes where glittering with amusement. he had stopped hating it a good while ago. once he stopped throwing up every time she did it. he had to beam at her when he realized she was being romantic. he loved it when she was romantic. "m pleasure." he stated, lifting her hand and kissing it before sweeping her into his arms. he'd never gotten a chance to dance before he'd been frozen so he had been delighted, just days after the Chitauri invasion, when Krystal offered to teach him. now he danced any chance he got with her.
Loki nodded eagerly, half ignoring Thor. "R&D?" he asked, startled. "you mean this isn't just a really big house?" he asked, looking like he wanted to bounce off the walls he was so excited. he seamed to have forgotten all about Domingo. "that's the woman right? the one who seams to think Magic is real? sure i can tell her." he agreed as he broke apart a... thing. "i will. thank you. goodbye." Loki chirped as he started working eagerly on his things. Thor wouldn't hear from Loki at all. but an hour later Thor would be woken by Jarvis's chiming voice, warning that Loki had crawled under the bed and was crying.

JJ looked at his uncle. "That sure is complicated." He said, eyes a little bit wide. He had never really understood the politics of the fae, but he did understand that his mother and uncle were very high ranking ones, even with his mother being half moonian. "So, who is the dark queen right now? Is it mother's grandmother or someone else?" JJ asked curiously, eyes full of fascination. He may not understand it, but he was still quite curious, especially about Fiore. His mother didn't much talk of him and he found it rather strange. "What is uncle fiore like?" He asked curiously, though his eyes were unsure if he should ask or not.
JJ chuckled at his Boyfriend. "We'll go up to our rooms soon love." He promised, giving the man another soft and passionate kiss. He loved this man whose lap he was in, though he just wanted to relax for a few more moments before he ravaged him. He had something special in mind planned for tonight, but it wasn't quite finished being put together yet, so tony would have to wait.
Bruce shuffled nervously when they got back to his rooms, playing with something in his khaki pants pocket. "Natasha... I wanted to asked you this before I chicken out again." He said shuffling a bit more before he continued. "I love you. I do. So so much. To the moon and stars and back, and I've been taking lessons from Krystal, so that I can be comfident in asking you this, knowing the "worse" won't hurt the one most important to me." He took another deep breath before he knelt down, taking the dark purple velvet box out of his pocket, opening it to reveal a diamond ring with rubies and emeralds on either side. "Natasha Romanoff, will you do me the extrodinary honor of marrying me?" He finally asked, sweating like a pig from fear she would say no. The man was still extremely insecure about everything, but not his love for Natasha. It was as pure as water fresh from a spring, and burned as hot as 10,000 suns.
Krystal chuckled a little. "No you don't." She said simply, making a tiny and cute squeak as he kissed her hand, He was so sweet and adorable. She cuddled into him, getting onto her tip toes to kiss him as she changed their clothes to match the music. She in ablue cocktail dressand he in ablue matching suit.She knew how much he like it when she was romantic, and this was only the beginning of the night. "My handsome captain." She purred as she gave him a light kiss on the lips her red lipstick leaving a faint trace on his own.
Thor chuckled. "Yes, tony enjoys bringing his work home, so he has several floors of R&D in the tower. You can usually find him in the basement where his personal lab and garage are." He explained to the other, smiling at his brother's obvious enthusiasm before leaving. Thor woke to Jarvis's chime, and practically ran to loki. "Alexandyr? What's wrong? Come out and we'll talk about it okay?" Thor soothed, looking worried for the other.
human
Phil smiled a little. "someone else. Vienna isn't actually related to Krystal in anyway. she is the previous Queen's Grand niece." he admitted. "she took over because Krystal wasn't born yet. she's over six thousand years old though and never took a mate, so children from her is unlikely." he admitted. "... Fiore is... hard." Phil admitted. "he thinks that most problems in life can be solved through war and battle. he and your mother do not get along well." he admitted as he stroked Clint's hip, stroking the flesh just above his lovers skin. simply touching him. he chuckled when Tony whined and sulked but settled down. Tony never really pestered, not JJ anyway. JJ had a handle on Tony like no one else ever had. even Howard couldn't get compliance out of Tony. "Fiore is a brute really. a bully though he himself doesn't see it." he admitted. "he never forgave Krystal for denying him as children. Fey don't really get the concept of Incest because our genetics allow for it." he admitted. "you won't see brothers and sisters marrying, but you do see cousins and the like." he admitted. "Fiore wanted to Marry Krystal and she turned him down because she was waiting for her True Mate. Fiore doesn't understand the concept of 'love over Power' so he took it personally."
Natasha blinked at him, looking a little surprised. she'd never heard him talk like this before. her feelings twisted up even more. was he asking for another step in their relationship or was he going to break up with her? she couldn't tell, she never could. Bruce's emotions never showed on his face right, not like most people. too much emotion suppression for him to show them properly. she blinked a little as she realized what he was doing and for the first time in her life she felt faint. "Oh my god..." she whispered, staring at him, a hand on her lips, catching hold of the couch before she collapsed. "Bruce" the voice filled with such emotion even she wasn't sure which it was. "Yes. oh my god Yes!" she whispered, tears blocking her vision as she slammed into him, lips on his. completely forgetting about the ring, because the ring didn't matter. she had him! he was hers! forever and always! "i love you! i love you so much!"
he chuckled a little. "your right of course." he agreed with a smile as he kissed her, jumping as she changed him. he had gotten a lot better, about magic and technology but sometimes it still made him jump. a lot of the time actually. "My Heart." he whispered back with a smile as he bent his head and kissed her on the neck, leaving the trace there. "i love you." he told her so at least once a day. he couldn't bring himself not to.
Loki nodded. "okay." he agreed, not paying attention in the least. "...Thor. right?" Loki asked, sounding uncertain, as if he thought he might have gotten Thor's name wrong. "nothing's wrong... not really. i just get like this..." he admitted, sniffling. "i just get really sad and scared... and being in the tight places where no one can reach me helps." while his memories had been wiped away, sometimes the emotions of those memories came back. sometimes he was sad and scared. sometimes he was so panicked he hyperventilated. sometimes he was in such a rage he hurt anyone who came close. Domingo didn't mind, he just helped Loki through the 'episodes'. if Domingo wasn't there then he went to Lucille. but they weren't there and he was alone, so he had hid under the bed. he slid out of the bed, deciding it would be okay to trust. something inside of him said it was okay to. he slid into Thor's Lap and curled up. like he had done once when the other children at the Academy had been mocking him for being so weird. they had only been twenty years or so at the time, and the words had been cruel and vicious. everything about the Academy had been cruel and viscous to Loki, even if only Loki knew it.

JJ smiled a little. "I think she just hasn't found the right one yet." He said, before he looked contemplative and he chuckled. "Mom's over 2,000 and only has me to show for it." He admitted, full on laughing as he saw Tony's expression. When Phil started to talk about fiore, JJ simply nodded. "Well, his name isn't all that fitting then. Fiore means flower in Italian. It may mean something different to fae though, right?" He mused, looking to the man in front of him as he cuddled into tony. He never really could understand why he had such power over tony, when he's dominant personality wise. Clint cuddled into his lover making tiny sounds as he was touched. The old fae knew just how to drive him wild without really turning him on. JJ looked a bit freaked. "So, I guess grandfather didn't approve? If he had, mother would probably be stuck in a loveless marriage with dad and Steve on the side. I wonder what he would think of me? Do ou think fiore would dislike me? Steve's good for mom, don't you think, uncle Phil? I wish I could have met dad..." he said, asking question in almost a rapid fire before looking quite deflated. His father hadn't even known Krystal was pregnant when he fell from the train. He cuddled into tony, resting his head on the genius's shoulder. JJ looked curious. "Is it possible that Fiore actually does love mother and that's why he was so taken aback by her refusal? I mean, even brutes do fall in love." He said, wondering. Maybe he'd find him and see, but he wasn't sure.
Bruce breathed out a happy and relieved sigh as she said yes. He mad a small "oof" noise as he was pretty much glomped, bad he slipped the engagement ring onto her left ring finger. "I Love you too, Natasha. For as long as I'll live." He said into her ear softly before kissing her again. Now he could confidently hold her close. She was his now, only his.
Krystal chuckled. "You're such a faker Stevie." She teased before she smiled, feeling him jump a little. "I love you too Stevie. Forever." She said, a tiny moan escaping her as she was kissed on the neck. He knew how sensitive her neck was. She loved being romantic for him, but what she wanted was for him to propose. She had dreamed about it since the moment he stepped back into her life.
"yes, my name is thor. " he said patiently, smiling a little as loki crawled out. "well, it could be any number of things, really. but don't worry. i'm here to help, and if you ever need someone more qualified, JJ is a trained therapist." he said, letting the smaller man climb into his lap, smiply cuddling him as he softly sang norse lullabys, trying to make him feel better. the thunder god would not let the worrry for his brother show, as the man in his lap, although he was loki, also wasnt. he hoped someday though, that loki would be his. he had always loved the small frost giant.

he chuckled. "no. she found them." Phil admitted with a smile. "one is Steve. the other... well, he's... gone." Phil admitted with a shake of his head. "you where born from him." he admitted. "that is why there is only you, she hasn't slept with anyone but her Soul Mates." he admitted. "no. it still means Italian Flower. it suits him well enough, he's prettier than any woman i've ever met." Phil admitted. "i think he's overcompensating really." he admitted. "your Grandfather believed in marrying for Love, and refused when Fiore tried to demand an arranged marriage." Phil admitted with a chuckle. "from what i understand, Fiore had to muck stables for three weeks when your grandmother found out." he admitted. "she was highly displeased." he admitted. "Fiore would rather like you i think. he's not a hateful person, he simply tries to exert his own will on everything and everyone. he would try to dominate and control you and get frustrated when he couldn't, but also be impressed with your will." Phil admitted. "Steve is very good for Krystal." he admitted with a smile. "just as she is good for him." he promised. "and no, Fiore does not love your mother, though he wishes to." he admitted. "Fiore is destined for another, he's just too blasted stubborn to admit it, or see it."
she beamed at him as she let him slide the thing on her finger. she wasn't paying attention to it really. she was marrying him, not his ring. besides, she had a feeling Stark had payed for it anyway, even if he didn't know it. "your mine forever now." she purred, pleased. "i hope you know that."
Steve smiled a little. "i'm not a fake, i'm a sassy bastard, just ask Tony." he teased, because Tony did call Steve that, often. because Steve loved picking on Tony almost as much as Tony loved picking on Steve. "i love you." he admitted softly. wishing he could drop to his knee in front of her. but the rings weren't done yet. he had to wait. dammit.
Loki nodded. "Thor." he agreed. "Domingo said it was because i have no memories." he admitted. "he braught in a shrink to talk to me. she thought it was because i couldn't remember anything, but the emotions and traumas where still there." he admitted as he snuggled into Thor. "don't leave me alone?" Loki asked softly as he let the lullabies sooth him to sleep. one hand clutched in Thor's shirt, as if making sure the other wouldn't leave.

JJ shook his head, but he smiled. "I wasn't talking about mom. I was talking about Vienna." He said smiling at his uncle as he ran his hands through his hair. He smiled. "He sounds like someone I would probably like. I hope to meet him sometime." he said, smiling a bit more. He nodded as his uncle talked about his father. "what was dad like, uncle phil? Mom doesn't talk about him much and neither does steve. i think its to painful for them." He said with a sigh, looking deflated as he cuddled into his boyfriend. All his life he had asked his mother to tell him about his father, and each time she would sigh and say. "Some other time sweetness" the co cry in her room for the rest of the night. It made JJ's heart hurt, but he was curious. A son should know about his father. "Uncle Phil, I don't think my father is dead, and if he did die, he was reborn to find mom and Steve again. I can't really explain it, but sometimes when I was alone, or mom was asleep, I could hear a faint voice of a man crying, but when I would go to the window to look, he'd be gone. That must sound crazy.." JJ said with a sigh, his grey blue eyes pained. He had always dreamed about meeting his father, and sometimes he could swear he heard his voice carrying through the wind. He wanted so badly, that if he had control of his mother's crystal, his father would be back with them. "What do you mean he wants to love her? Like he can't love her because she doesn't love him back? That makes no sense." JJ asked, looking curious.
Bruce beamed. "Of course nat. Always and forever." He said, giving her a kiss and picking her up, laying her down on the bed. He kissed her neck. "Why don't we celebrate our engagement?" He asked, smirking at her.
Krystal smirked. "Well, I'm sassy too, so I guess we match." She said with a smile, playing with the engagement ring from bucky around her neck. Pretty soon it would be his birthday again. She into a deep breath, biting her lip before she smiled. "I love you too Stevie. To the moon and back. Someday I'll take you there." She promised getting on her tip toes to kiss him before taking his hand and showing him the the dining room, where all his favorites were lined up there. "Ready for dinner love?" She asked, smiling meekly.
Thor nodded. "Those are very plausible theories. This Domingo seems like he was very good to you. That's good." He told the other, smiling lightly as Loki fell asleep to the lullabies."I could never leave you, my dearest Loki."Thor whispered when he was sure the other was asllep, stroking his cheek gently. He picked the smaller man up and brought him to the Gian green bad gold bed, taking off his shoes and tucking the both in, content to just be with the other and soon falling asleep himself.

Phil smiled. "i doubt it. he gets on everyone's nerves." he admitted. "James Barnes. i never really met him." Phil admitted. "i know he was loyal and strong. brave of heart and pure in soul... pretty bad womanizer too until he met Krystal." he admitted. "he spent his entire life protecting Steve. they grew up together and for a long time they where as close as Brothers until they realized it wasn't brothers they wanted to be. they where just starting a relationship when they met your mother. i'm not sure how it happened, honestly i don't think those three do either." he admitted with a chuckle. "Steve and her lost him quite traumatically." he admitted softly. "he fell during a mission off of a moving train. Steve never forgave himself for asking James to be there, and your mother never forgave herself for not being there to catch him." Phil admitted softly before he smiled at JJ, the expression tight and pained. "JJ, i don't think your father can come back. if he could have, he would have, and if he couldn't, your mother would have a long time ago. "He wants to love her because it is expected of him. he wants to love her because he adores her and respects her. he wants to love her because he doesn't want to accept that it isn't women he wants in his life. he is in denial and Krystal is how he is hiding the deepest parts of himself that he is too afraid to express. Fiore's parents where hellish bigots." he admitted. "he is too afraid to become what they hated most."
he chuckled a little as he nodded. "we do match." he agreed softly as he kissed her deeply. "i'd love to go see your homeland... won't i have to worry about oxygen though?" he asked, looking a bit concerned. it was amusing how he kept forgetting that Magic could hide a great many things, including a homeland on the moon. especially since the moonians where actually living on an alternate plain of existence that allowed them to live in all nine realms at the same time. humans had never really been aware of the Moon people, though the Fey had been. "...you made all my favorites." Steve muttered, blushing as he examined the huge pot of Spaghetti and the strips of sirloin steak cooked to perfection with the clam chowder that he had swiftly grown to adore. "thank you love." he whispered as he kissed her again.
"Domingo was the best!" Loki stated eagerly. "he loved me, you know. i know you people think he was terrible and evil, but he was so good to me. he loved me." Loki admitted. "he used to buy me things every week or so so i could take it apart and see how it worked. and he would get me any book i asked for." Loki admitted. "science books and books about the world and all kinds of stuff." he admitted, yawning as he fell asleep. "he was the best. he loved me... i wish i could go home." he admitted as he went to sleep, unaware of being moved, cuddling into Thor happily.

JJ looked thoughtful and sad. "Mom doesn't cry as much now that she has Steve, but I know it still pains her immensely to be without him. My dad I mean. I don't think their hearts are truly right without him, whether they want to admit or not." He explained, before he nodded. He could identify with the old fae prince, because while his mother had always supported him loving men, the world hadn't. Even now there were still bigots out there. Howard Stark had been a good example of a hipocrite. He had never told tony this, but when JJ was 19, Howard raped him. While tony knew about the rape, he didn't know who had committed it, and he intended to keep it that way. "Mom is always talking about how when you're a true soulmate, you can be reborn as many times as possible to find your soulmate again. I have a theory, uncle Phil. I think that maybe dad didn't die when he fell and was captured by someone. That would explain why he didn't come back. The people who have him may not want him to know who he is." JJ deduced, eyes both sad and hopeful. He hoped for his mother and for Steve's sake his theory was right. He knew he sensed someone watching them, but every time he went to look, the person disappeared in the darkness. He was sure it was his father, as crazy as that must sound. He cuddled into his boyfriend, needing the contact. "I may sound crazy, but my intuition is rarely wrong. I can't explain it, I just sense something coming, and as crazy and as unlikely as it is, I know somehow its him." JJ said, sighing. He hated sounding so crazy, but he had such a feel he just couldn't shake it.
"Yes, we do. Till the end of the line." She said as she kissed Steve back passionately and deeply. She loved this man so much, her soulmate, but other was hole in he heart without bucky. She had loved him so much, and when he fell from the train she just couldn't forgive herself. "Love, do you think life would be different If I had followed you and bucky into the army?" She asked, but Steve would know what she was really asking. He would know that she was asking about what would life had been like if she had been there to catch him when he fell. Krystal had not seen him fall from the train like Steve had, but the two were so connected, that she often had nightmares of the two of them dying on her. She beamed at Steve as she brought him over to the table, kissing him passionately. "You're welcome love. You know how much I love spoiling my best guy." She said softly, still smiling as she sat across from him, serving him a bowl of chowder, and some steak. Surf and turf, then Italian. Her favorites as well as his.
Thor smiled. "I am sure he is a great man, and I can tell he was very good to you. What the police don't agree on is his methods. I do believe that he is a good man, just a product of bad decicians." He told the other before smiling again and continuing. "Here in this world, drugs are considered illegal. He chose to sell them. That does not make him a bad person, simply someone who was trying to survive." He finished, smiling lightly as Loki cuddled into him. He stroked his hair and pulled the smaller man close, having missed being this close. oon both aeser were asleep, hopefully dreaming peacefully.

he nodded. "one does not simply 'get over' a Soul mate. there will always be an emptiness there." he admitted, his arm tightening around Clint. he knew if Clint where to die, he would not be likely to survive the experience. "...the Fey do not become reborn." he whispered. "as far as i know, neither do humans." he admitted. "moonians and Asgardians are unique in that aspect." he admitted. he was hopeful that the other was right. it was true that JJ was so very rarely wrong, but how could it be possible? unless maybe Krystal's moonian magic had allowed James to be reborn? was that possible? Phil wouldn't get his hope up, but he wouldn't discount his nephews feelings either. he would wait and see. "we will watch carefully... until then, i do believe your mate has fallen asleep on you." Phil teased, amused. indeed Tony was asleep, leaning against JJ and looking quite content.
he smiled at her and nodded. "till the end of time." he agreed softly before he shook his head. "no. i don't think it would have been different. i still would have... done what i did." he admitted. "Bucky might even still have died. i don't think we could have changed what happened love. i really don't." he admitted with a sigh. "besides, women weren't allowed to fight back then." he reminded her. "you wouldn't have been out there anyway." he admitted, picking up her hands and kissing the knuckles before tugging out the engagement ring and kissed that too. he always kissed in in remembrance to Bucky when they spoke of him before he smiled as he enjoyed his dinner, studying her. "...i didn't forget our anniversary did i?" he asked suddenly, wondering why she was being so romantic. usually Jarvis told him a few days in advance though, if it looked like Steve had gotten the dates mixed up. which he did sometimes.
he nodded. "they think he is a rapist. they think he is abusive, but he's not." Loki grumbled, sulking. he did sleep well at least. deep and peaceful and without dreams. not that he dreamed much anyway but sometimes he had violent nightmares that he could never remember upon waking. he had none of that, just calm sleep that left him feeling better than he had in a long time.
gpt
JJ nodded. "Yes, I understand that. If tony we're to die I don't think I'd be able to live without him." he said, cuddling into tony and stroking the mans hair. Clint nodded and gave Phil a kiss. "I almost did kill myself a few times during the 2 months you were gone. Luckily, Krystal was always there to stop me before it happened." The younger man admitted, cuddling into his lover as he was pulled closer. JJ smiled a little at the site. It was so cute to see them together, and he was so happy his uncle found Clint. Not only is Clint one of his closest friends, Phil and Clint just go together like instant pudding and whipped cream. JJ looked to his uncle. "Yes, watching is all we can do." He agreed, chuckling when he realized tony was asleep. "He's been working to hard on one of his projects. Says its a surprise for me." He said, and what JJ wouldn't know is that tony was building him his own iron man suit. JJ adjusted himself so he could pick up his sleeping boyfriend without waking him. "Good night uncle phil, Clint. See you in the morning.' JJ said softly before he popped away, laing right in tony and he's bed. Everything was set, but his lover was asleep! How could he propose now?
Krystal smiled and nodded, giving her boyfriend a light kiss before she smirked. "That my dear, is why I have shape shifting abilities." She said her smirk becoming more mischevious before she frowned, her blue eyes full of sadness. Bucky had taken a piece of her when he'd died. "I'd like to think it would have." She said sadly, smiling as he kissed her knuckles and the sapphire engagement ring bucky had bought her long ago. She loved Steve so very much her hear hurt, but there would always be a place in her heart that ached for Bucky. Krystal chuckled a little. "No, you didn't miss our anniversary. I guess I'm just celebrating a little early. You know how cooking keeps my mind off my sadness. Tomorrow would be Bucky's 95th birthday." She said as she took a few bites of her steak. She had always loved steak, and the taste of the simple NY strip steak helped ease her pain.
Thor smiled a little. "They only see one side of him and assume that's all there is." He admitted, stroking Loki's hair softly out of habit, smiling when the godling dropped into a peaceful sleep. He himself didn't dream much either, but this particular night as he held Loki so close to him, dreams of a life with Loki on earth ran through his mind. He could never take Loki back to Asgard. No, that would be cruel. The blonde aeser was not as clueless as he was portrayedm he simply didn't know how to help his brother.

Phil went so tense so fast it looked like it hurt and he whipped around and started checking Clint for any lingering aches, pains or damages, settling only once he was certain the other was still there, still alive, and unhurt. "don't DO that." he complained, huffing at Clint. "declarations of attempted suicide should not be admitted out of the blue! you almost gave me a heart attack." he complained, kissing Clint's fingertips, as he always did when he was trying to calm himself down. usually after a particularly disastrous mission in which Clint had gotten hurt in some manner of varying degrees. "yes he has been." Phil admitted, looking amused. "just remember. when he gives it to you, he loves you and he is not insulting your manliness." he warned. knowing that some might take Tony's gifting of an iron man suit to be a direct insult to their ability to defend the,selves. for Tony, it was sharing a part of himself that literally no one else could have. no one else, save Rhodey, had an Iron man suit. for Tony, it was the epitome of trust.
he blinked at her. "i always forget about that." he admitted with a smile before he shook his head. "i forgot." he whispered. "your right... we should... we should do something special. just the two of us to remember him." he admitted. "we could go to the pier. he used to love the pier. we'll throw flowers into the water." he decided as he chewed on his own steak. "what do you think?"
gpt
Clint winced when Phil went tense. He had just admitted hid deepest secret about the time Phil had been gone. "I'm sorry love." He said remorsefully, simply letting the other go through the motions to make himself feel better. Clint hadn't realized Phil would act so strongly. JJ looked puzzled at what Phil had to say about about it, but he nodded. "Alright, I will. I'm sure whatever he's giving me I'll like. Tony knows me to well." He said with a chuckle, thinking about the sextoys tony had had built just for his pleasure. His favorite was the one that tied tony up for him. JJ was kinky, and he loved to drive his partner wild, drive him to submission. It made him so hot.
Krystal chuckled. "I know. But that's alright. Its not a talent I use much." She said, taking a bite of steak before she squeesed his hand. "That's a great idea Stevie. I'm sure he'll appreciate it." She said with a sad smile, still wishing to be engaged to him. she loved him so much, she just wanted to know he'd be hers forever for real. "JJ's gonna be very depressed tomorrow. I hope Tony's present is ready for him. He's building him an iron man suit. Its quite romantic really." She said dreamily, so happy her son had found tony. While they had started out as friends, JJ had always loved tony, from the moment he met him, and she suspected the same of tony, though he couldn't admit it until pepper's death.
human
Clint sighed and shook his head. "it's alright. it's in my nature to be overly possessive and protective." he admitted with a strained smile. "i knew you had been depressed after my... fall, but i hadn't expected you to react so strongly to it." he admitted as he stroked Clint's hair. "come on. to bed we go. i need snuggles." he admitted with a smile, taking Clint away for some good old fashioned sex and cuddles.
he chuckled and shook his head. "thank goodness. no offense but i like you as yourself." he admitted with a smile. "we'll do that then." he agreed. "we'll use lilies. he always loved lilies the most." he admitted before he jerked, startled. "Tony's giving JJ an iron man suit!? he's practically proposing!" he stated, stunned. "...anyway... shall we go to bed?" he asked, wondering if he could have sex with her before they went to sleep. he always felt better after some physical intimacy.
in the morning, Thor woke up to an empty bed. Loki was sitting at the worktable again, looking excited as he used a pinky length screwdriver to screw in a bolt so small you almost couldn't see it. "Thor! Look!" Loki demanded, once he realized the god was awake. he took the object in his hand and threw it to Thor and it came unfolded, revealing a beautifulmechanical birdthat began flapping, arcing into the air like a real bird. flying just like a real bird. Loki looked so proud of himself, just like when he had been six and Thor had been ten and Loki had brought Thor his very first Glyph. "Jarvis showed me how to program it!" Loki admitted, bouncing on his toes. "isn't it amazing?! i want to go show Tony!" he admitted. so happy.
Tony himself was down in the lab, putting on the final touches of the suit he was building for JJ. he had been sneaky again and measured the man in his sleep for the last set of calibrations. in just ten more minutes, the machine would be finished and he could have Jarvis paint it. in JJ's colors of course. he had crawled out of bed somewhere around three in the morning. he knew JJ would be annoyed with him for it, but he wanted to finish it for today, so JJ wouldn't be so sad.
gpt
Clint gave Phil a small kiss on the lips, hugging him close. "Okay love. But yeah, it was tough. It hurt to think I'd have to live alone." He said, looking sad as he kissed him again, making sure the man was truly real. On some days, he really did have to hug and kiss him to make sure he was alive. It still daunted him. "Yes, bed sounds nice." He said with a smile, cuddling into him as he was carried off.
Krystal smiled. "None taken love. I like just you too." She said, nodding at his idea of Lillie's. "Yes! Blue and purple Lillie's. His two favorite colors." She said, squeezing his hand again. She wanted to be with him in all ways, and they hadn't actually had sex since the 30's, because she was under the impression he wanted to be married first. Steve had always been more of a prude than she or Bucky. Krystal chuckled at Steve's surprise. "Yes, he is. Its a good thing JJ plans on proposing too." She admitted, having helped her son plan it all out, even designing the ring which was awhite and yellow gold knotwork ringwith a ruby carved to look like the arc reactor. That had been JJ's idea.
Thor woke up with a stretch, amused when Loki can in looking so excited. He was mesmerized by the mechanical bird. "This I'd quite amazing, alexandyr." He admitted, knowing better than to call the man Loki. He smiled at him. "Jarvis? Make us some pop tarts please?" He asked the AI, wanting to celebrate Loki's small joy and victory. He smiled at his little brother. "Tony's busy at the moment. We'll show him in a little while okay?" He told the other, happy that Loki was so happy.
When JJ woke to an empty bed, he sighed a little. "Always working." He said with a sigh as he got up and put on his apron. Preparing to make some blueberry white chocolate waffles. He also made some breakfast sausage and eggs, knowing that his lover and hopefully soon to be fiance would be hungry. "Jarvis, please inform tony that breakfast is ready nd I'm waiting." He told the AI, smiling to himself, as he played with the ring box in his pocket.
human
Loki grinned at Thor before wrinkling his nose. "pop-tarts? gross." he stated dismissively. Loki had always been an overly picky eater. he was not overly fond of sugar. chocolate was fine, particularly whi4 chocolate. but frosting, glaze, or cookies, things jam packed with sugar simply for the taste of sugar was displeasing to Loki's taste-buds. chocolate and plain cake was as close as he got to enjoying sweets despite his obsession with white chocolate. "well. fine." he agreed catching the bird in gentle hands and smiling as he stroked it's head and gently settled it back on his worktable. "i've never been able to actually make anything before." he admitted, animated all over again. "Tony said he has a R&D? could i see it? will you show me? and do we have food other than pop-tarts?" Loki typically preferred to have a small breakfast of fruit and yogurt, or maybe some granola or oatmeal in the mornings. he had never been a very big eater really.
"I am sorry Prince James" Jarvis informed JJ, no matter how they begged and pleaded, Tony was Always Sir, JJ was always Prince, Phil was always Lord and Steve was always Captain. "But Sir has indicated that he wishes to finish this before asking you down to the lab for a surprise he has created for you. he is extremely nervous about how you may take the gift and i fear if he where to eat now, he would simply become ill." Tony always fretted needlessly. "perhaps you could fix him breakfast and then take it to him in the lab in approximately twenty three minutes?" Jarvis offered hopefully. he knew JJ would love Tony's gift but any attempts to reassure his brilliant creator left Tony muttering about how he had to fix just that one last thing before JJ came to drag him out of the lab. so Jarvis was simply inviting JJ down to end Tony's suffering hours earlier.
gpt
Thor smiled. "Of course. After breakfast I will show you around the 20 or so R&D levels." He promised, smiling at his brother as he took a sip of coffee. Jarvis had made Loki some herbal tea and there was some vanilla yogurt and strawberries in the refidgerator. Thor smiled again. "Jarvis has made you some Herbal tea, and I will get some strawberries and yogurt." He promised the other, chewing on a pop tart happily. He did love his pop tarts. When Thor returned to the breakfast nook, he had a small tray with a green rose, some orange juice, strawberries and vanilla yogurt. "I hope that this is satisfactory, Alexandyr." He said with a small smile before returning once again with a cup of herbal tea and cream if Loki wanted it.
JJ sighed. He always called him prince. While the man enjoyed being a prince of a mostly unknown race, he didn't like to be reminded of it every time he talked to his boyfriend's AI. "That is fine Jarvis. Tell him that I will shower and bring his breakfast down after then." He said with a smile, wondering what on earth tony could be doing down in his lab. It could be any number of things. The thought never even occurred to him that tony would be building him aniron man suit of his own in his colors, blue and silver. JJ was sure in for a surprise, as was tony. The man had no idea that JJ planned to propose. So JJ ate his breakfast quickly, the jumped into the massive shower, washing himself down completely with he line of clonoge products tony like best, then dried his hair. He styled the usual messy blue hair in a simple style, then put on his favorite suit, not forgetting to put the ring box inside his jacket. When he was finished, he once again put on an apron and made Tony's breakfast, singinga songsoftly to himself. It was about half an hour later when JJ finally came down to the lab, large plate of food and a a giant cup of coffee for his lover in his his hands. "Tony? Breakfast time, love!" He said with a happy smile, excited to know about the present, and eager to propose to his lover.

"Twenty Floors?!" Loki demanded, stunned, his eyes wide. "Twenty floors of technology." he whispered, sounding as excited and awestruck as he had when he had met his Magical Master. the one person besides Odin and Thor to treat him as a person. Oblisk had been Odin's personal sorcerer, and had taken a very great interest in Loki after the child, barely six, had created a Glyph on his own using books that where entirely too advanced for the child. Oblisk's death had been the very last time Loki had ever cried until his memories had been struck and he had ended up as a human on earth. Loki paused in his tinkering with the bird when he saw his breakfast and blinked at the rose, his head cocked to the side as if he wasn't sure what it was. finally he reached out and gently picked it up, wary of thorns and brought it to his face. Loki had always been a sucker for roses and it seamed it was no different for Alexandyr. "it's perfect. thank you." he agreed softy as he enjoyed his breakfast. while he never ate much, he always savored it. as if every bite was precious. "Thank you." Loki stated calmly as he accepted the Tea, adding a scant half a spoonful of cream to it. he didn't stir, he never did.
"I will do that Prince James." he promised before falling silent. Tony was covered in grease, oil, and blue paint and looked like he was indeed fretting himself sick if the way he was twitching, pacing, and muttering in short bursts was any indication. "JJ! i mean, come in! i mean. i have something for you! i mean... Don't look!" he ordered when JJ moved to look. "it's! i mean... It's!".... he fell silent, fidgeted and then made a beckoning motion and the blue suit was slid into view. freshly painted and smelling of fresh titanium alloy. "it's... it's for you..." he muttered. "i... i made this for you... i mean.. i... it's... yours..."
gpt
Thor nodded. "Yes, 20 floors. Tony has to many projects going on so he organizes them over his floors. His pet project though is his suits. Krystal had hinted to me that he was building one for his boyfriend. He's pretty well in love with JJ." He said with a smile, sipping his coffee. He was glad his brother liked the breakfast. "Do you like your rooms here, alexandyr? We wanted to make you as comfortable as possible." He explained, watching as Loki smelt the flower, happy that the other was so excited. He loved seeing his little brother whom he loved so much so full of happy wonder. "Tony says you can play with any of his inventions, offer feed back and ideas if you like. Just he says to give him a few hours. He has something planned for JJ. The prince gets rather depressed on his father's birthday." Thor explained, taking another sip of his coffee.
"Thank you Jarvis" the man told him as he walked over to the elevator, Tony's breakfast in hand, excitement and nerves were all that was going through him. JJ looked as if he was gonna faint, so he set the the tray of food down on the nearby workbench. "Oh tony.... you made this for me?" He asked, eyes wide as he studied the suit, touching it tenderly. He couldn't believe that tony would love him so much that he would do this for him. He wiped off his lover's face. "I love it. This is the best present you've ever given me. When the paint dries, we'll go for a fly, okay? But first, I have something I want to ask you." He said, smirking mischeviously and he got down on one knee looking up at tony as he pulled the red velvet ring box from his pocket. "Anthony Edward Stark, I've loved you since the moment we met, and I feel as though you're my soulmate. I guess what I'm trying to ask is.. will you marry me?" JJ asked, opening the box to reveal the ring that he and his mother made so painstakingly.
human
Loki looked quiet excited by that idea. "i might just look and write down any ideas i have." he admitted. "that way i can explore and he can still get feedback." he admitted, even if he looked a little skeptical that he could help Tony. really, Loki was acting to Tony the way he had once acted for Thor. like Tony was a big brother who he wanted to impress and please and assist. Loki had never been able to help Thor all that much, and Thor had never understood magic to do anything more than the simplest of things, so impressing Thor had been difficult as well. maybe through Tony Loki could have the big brother he'd always wanted. considering Thor had harbored a lust for Loki and had tried to hide it and keep Loki away so he COULD hide it. gave Thor the chance to seduce Loki at least. "...Prince?" he asked, looking startled. "he didn't look like much of one.." he admitted. "...i guess i can see it though." he admitted, his head tilted. "you knew me, before my memory loss?" he asked curiously. "do i have a father? does he know i am alright?" he asked curiously. Odin had asked for Heimdall to only tell Odin if Loki was in any true danger, so Odin knew Loki was safe. worried, but not too badly so.
Tony nodded, looking quite worried that JJ wouldn't like it and he nearly sagged when he was promised that JJ loved it. the paint is already drying, it's a fast seal polymer that won't scuff, crack or peel. high blunt force trauma can scrape it up but it won't come off easily even then." Tony babbled, too strung up to be calm. he had been working for WEEKS to make the suit absolutely perfect. he paused when JJ got on his knees, looking confused before his eyes widened. stunned. "...." he collapsed, unable to stay standing anymore, bursting into tears as he held his arms out for JJ, needing the comfort of his lover even while nodded vigorously and trying to spit out the words that JJ was the best and that he loved him and that he wanted to get married in the courtroom because he didn't want the stupid people to ruin his wedding and he changed his mind, he wanted to get married on the moon and Phil had to officiate because Krystal was going to be his bridesmaid.

Thor smiled. "That sounds like a brilliant idea, alexandyr. I'm sure tony will appreciate your imput. He is always thinking up new things, so I'm sure you will have plenty to work with." He admitted, eating his pop tart as he sipped his coffee. Thor had learned the joy of coffee from Jane foster, the scientist who had found him when he was exiled. He was fascinating to watch be all excited, and it reminded him of when they were children. He couldn't tell Alexandyr that though. Thor was a bit startled by the question, but he nodded anyway. "Yes. I knew you before the memory loss, and yes you have a father. He is watching over you from afar, unable to leave his post, and he caress deeply for you." He explained the best he could, trying to to think of an adequate was describe the all father. He was excited though the thunder god did not show it. With Loki not remembering who he is, perhaps he could finally make his little brother see how much he loves him. It was an opportunity Thor could not pass up, and he hoped his father would understand. It wasn't like they were genetically related, they only grew up together. 'Brothers till the end" Loki used to say, and then he'd climb on Thor's back and they'd ride away for a usually needed nap.
JJ grinned. "'That's fairly cool. So its like the paint you use for your suits?" He asked, lookihg curious about the suit and about the paint. He couldn't wait to try it out. This suit was a major expression of loveon tony's part, and it moved the man to tears. JJ looked a bit concerned when tony burst out into tears, but he slipped the ring on his left ring finger and kissed his lover, pulling him in close to him, his suit magically changing to his normal casual jeans and a T-shirt. "We can get married wherever and whenever you want love.' He whispered softly, kissing his now fiancee. The young moon prince never thought he could be this happy, that tony would ever say yes to him. He was so excited now, he could barely stand. "I love you tony. Nothing could ever change that." He told the other, stroking his cheek softly. This man was his world, his being, his soulmate. He couldn't imagine life without him. "Okay, now we have to give you aging potion. I may only be half fae, but moonians can live millenniums too. It would destroy me to loose you." He told the other, hugging him close, content to just be with his lover. So far, this had turned out to be the best father's birthday for JJ ever, him actually being happy instead of moping in his pajamas all day .
When Steve would awaken, Krystal would be cooking their breakfast of omelets and orange juice with toast and fresh banana nut muffins. She quickly plated it and put it under warmers, basket of muffins in the center of the kitchen table. She sang happily, trying to keep her head clear of sadness before she called the flower shop and ordered two dozen blue and purple Lillie's. Today was gonna be perfect, and she hoped that maybe tonight would be the night that Steve proposes. "I want to be yours baby, cause I've got you under my skin." She sang mincing songs together mostly because she could. She couldn't wait for Steve to wake up so they could have their special day in remembrance of their soulmate, James Buchanan Barnes. She was comfident it would be a good day, despite the meaning of their excursion from the tower.

Loki smiled shyly at Thor, wondering if Tony would really appreciate anything he might think up? he was an intelligent soul, he knew. he devoured books on astrophysics and quantum mechanics and human psychosis. he could help, he supposed even if he wasn't as brilliant as Tony. "Tony is a genius." Loki breathed, reverence in every word. "i read his work. from when he was in collage. even as a child he was more brilliant than most people could ever hope to be." he admitted with a smile before he blinked at Thor, looking puzzled. "i don't understand. if i have a father, why would he not come for me? did i run away from home?" he asked, looking worried. "...was i kidnapped? i was hurt badly when i first woke up." he admitted. "i had broken ribs, burns and lacerations and infections and some sort of madness i think..." he admitted. "was i kidnapped and then abandoned? or was there an accident?" somehow, instinctively, Loki knew that it had not been his father who had hurt him.
Tony smiled weakly and shook his head. "JJ this IS a suit." he pointed out. "it's the exact same as all the other Iron Man suits. it's just that it's specifically designed for you and your body. Krystal even helped me so that you can use magic along with the mechanical and electrical aspects of it." he admitted. "I love you too!" he gasped through his heaving sobs. he had never imagined this day might happen. never ever. not once in his entire lifetime had he ever dreamed it. he had never thought himself worthy of a loving husband. "...will it hurt?" Tony asked curiously, rubbing his chest where the Arc reactor had been removed. sometimes it still ached, like arthritis, it was easy to ignore most of the time, but some days he was left in such pain he was bedridden for a few hours. "will it taste vile? will..." he swallowed hard. "will you still like me younger? will i still have all my memories? will it affect my intelligence?" despite loving JJ he would never risk his own genius. not unless he had no other choice.
Steve smiled a little as he listened to her sing, stretching as he got up, blinking. he knew the package had come today. Jarvis had told him so through a text on his cell. he got up and got dressed, groaning as he stretched and cracked his back. "Morning Love." he muttered as he kissed her. "i'll be right back. i got my new leathers in, i have to go pick them up from the front desk." and they had arrived. a convenient excuse in case Krystal asked him why he had a package in. he headed down and smiled as he tore open the box downstairs in case she peeked and examined the rings before snapping the ring box closed and tucked it into a pocket before pulling out his leather chaps and jacket for when he went riding on his bike. they where for safety's sake. he could heal most things, but even road rash from falling off his bike at seventy miles a hour would leave some pretty bad marks on him. the leather wouldn't stop the damage but it would keep his leg from getting torn off at least.

Thor smiled. "Yes, he is, but he does value the opinion of others. Especially since meeting JJ. No one really knows why, but JJ holds some strange power over tony no one else does." Thor admitted, watching his brother's lips. He wanted to kiss them so badly, but he wasn't sure if he should. To Loki, they had just met, ever though he had known him his whole life. Thor sighed. "It is complicated, alexandyr. Your father wishes to give you happiness, and he knows you will not be happy where he is." He explained the best he could, unsure how much he should reveal. He looked to Loki. "Would you hate me very much if I admitted I want to kiss you?" He asked the otyer, taking in a breath and looking nervous as he exhaled, sipping his coffee. This was a big step for the thunder god, having not been able to ever do it before.
JJ beamed. "That is awesome. I'll be sure to test that out. Its amazing tony, absolutely so. I'm so excited to play with it. Thank you, tony." !he said happily, kissing his fiancee. He beamed even more when tony admitted he loved him. It was so rare that his handsome genius admitted it. Sure, he said it in gifts and in sex, but never in words. He smiled at his lover. "No, it won't, and in my experience it usually tastes like honey. Tony, I will always love you. No matter how old you are." He reassured, giving his fiancee a kiss and holding the sobbing man close, playing with his hair and trying to keep the man calm. He smirked a little. "Would you like some subspace time?"' JJ asked, smirk widening. There was nothing JJ like better than taking tony to subspace. He got off on it so hard something told him this time though, tony would make him pregnant. He was okay with that though. Nothing would make him happier.
Krystal kissed him back. "Morning my sexy captain." She said with a small smirk before she nodded. She was curious about why he had to go to the lobby until it was explained. "Alright mi'love. Breakfast should be ready by the time you return." She said with a smile, continuing to cook, making steak yet again, because she knew how much he loved it. Krystal was sitting at the table waiting for him when he would return, soft jazz music playing. Some of Bucky's favorite sounds, and his as well. "Hello love." She greeted, standing only to serve their breakfast.

he smiled a little. "well. i'll do my best to make Tony proud." he agreed. "Tony loves JJ." he stated with a shrug. "there's no mysterious power about it, Tony listens to JJ because he trusts JJ to do whats best for both of them." he admitted before he frowned and then sighed. "my father is a mob boss." he grumbled. "i thought so." he muttered before he stared at Thor, wide eyed and startled before he narrowed his eyes. "while i appreciate the sentiment, i'm afraid that my lover would be displeased with me for allowing such an action." he warned, voice slightly clipped. well, Thor was going to have a tough go of it, but he'd always been a stubborn bastard. "this is good tea." Loki admitted. "no one knows how to make a good cup of tea." he admitted with a content little sigh as he sipped at his own cup. he always drank his tea at the very end. Loki liked his very strong, two bags per steep if he could manage it. he liked to let the bag sit long enough that it would turn water black. he was weird like that. then again, people liked Coffee that way, so perhaps not.
Tony smiled shyly. glad that JJ loved it so much. he'd been working on it for so long it almost felt wrong not to be working on it anymore. "honey?" he asked, wrinkling his nose. he hated honey. "...okay." he agreed as he snuggled into the other, still hiccuping and sniffling. "...yes." he muttered, leaning more intently into JJ. "i wanna please you." he muttered, kissing and nibbling on the others neck. Tony loved being able to watch JJ come all undone at the sight of Tony on his knees, begging to suck cock or begging to be fucked. he loved to beg. though maybe that was just because he loved to talk, who knew.
Steve chuckled as she called him sexy and gave her a gentle nip to her lip playful as he usually was in the mornings. "thanks Beautiful." he muttered as he gave her a last kiss before he headed down, coming back up with his unopened leathers, opening them at the table to further distract her as he pulled out the leathers and made sure they where the right sizes before he smiled as he munched on his food. "i was thinking we could take the Car." he admitted. "we could drive down there and have a picnic on the beach and send the flowers out for Bucky. it could be like a Date with Bucky's spirit with us that way." he admitted. "what do you think?"

Thor smiled. "You will alexandyr, and yes he does. I've never seen him love another so much. Not even lady pepper." He explained, smiling at the other as he watched him eat. So far, it looked like Loki was enjoying himself, and that was ta good sign. Thor blushed. He had expected Loki to say something like that, but the fact that he was flattered did give the thunder god hopeful. Perhaps he could make Loki love him like he loves Loki. "Yes, Jarvis makes very good drinks. He takes into account the personality of the person before makes the drink." He explained, sipping his coffee. He was glad that Loki was not so sad and moping as he was when he came here.
JJ chuckled a little before he smiled. "I can alter the taste so it will taste like blueberries. Dad was never fond of the taste of honey either." He admitted, cuddling his fiance who was still sniffling and hiccuping from crying. He rubbed Tony's back before he smiles, kissing his lover tenderly before he nodded. "I love it when you please me, my handsome genius." He purred, moaning as tony kissed and nipped at his neck. His neck, like his mother's, was very sensitive. Breakfast was now forgotten, and JJ picked his fiancee up by his ass, moving him to the bedroom that was situated next to the garage, on the off chance that tony fell asleep in the lab, or JJ and he wanted to have some fun, but didn't feel like going to the penthouse. It was quite convenient.
Krystal kissed him back, giggling as he playfully nibbled his lip. "You're welcome mi'love. Always everything for you." She said as she smiled and finished her cooking, sitting at the table on the kitchen, food all set out waiting for her lover to return. She looked at him curiously as he examined the chaps, sensing something up. She didn't voice it though, knowing it would all be explained to her soon. "That sounds like a wonderful idea Stevie. I know bucky will appreciate it. Should we take the Packard?" She asked, alluding to the classic 1939 blue Packard she had had completely restored for Steve for his last birthday. She had known how much he had always wanted one, but hadn't had the money for it then. For his next birthday, which was soon, she intended on giving him a fully restored 30's Harley like the one he'd had in the war. She loved spoiling him. It was like another job for her. Krystal sighed dreamily. "This is gonna be so romantic." She said, taking a sip of her tea. She hoped that wherever bucky was, he was looking down and smiling.
Little did she know that the master assassin was on their tail, having been contracted by his handler, Alexander peirce, to kill her and Steve. He had tried several times, but to his frustration, could not. Something in his reprogrammed brain and heart would not let him. "Why can't I just kill you, Kobayashi!? Why?!" He screamed inside his head, the sniper rifle trained on her back, though he was unable to pull the trigger. Emotions were surfacing in his head that he didn't know he could still feel, and he was going insane. He couldn't pull the trigger, no matter what he did. Perhaps it would be simpler to kill her if if he had her with him. That was when he decided. I'm a few weeks time, he would kidnap her. What he didn't realize though, was that once he did, she would unlock his heart, and his memories. He couldn't kill her because you are phisically incapable of killing your soulmate, and he was contracted to kill both of them..

he smiled a little. "Love can tame even the wildest of beasts." Loki stated simply. "Tony Loves JJ, so, JJ has tamed him. Tony does what JJ says because Tony respects and loves JJ enough to know that he should do as instructed. some because he doesn't want to upset JJ and some because he likes to do what JJ says to." he took a last sip of tea and set his cup down before standing up and gathered the dishes up and moved to the sink, looking quite content as he washed the dishes by hand. he had always hated that. doing 'menial chores'. apparently he had grown to appreciate the tasks while living as a human.
"i don't like Blueberries." he grumbled, even if he was lying. he didn't mind them, they where okay really but he wouldn't go out of his way to get them. "i love pleasing you." Tony breathed as he nibbled and sucked on that warm, gorgeous neck. he moaned as he was picked up, arching into the touch as he wriggled and smiled as he was dumped into the bed. "i got new toys." he breathed, indicating a small box laying just inside a half closed closet. inside where all sorts of new toys. nipple clamps and cock rings, anal toys and gags and everything JJ and Tony loved most.
he offered her a smile and gently kissed her again. "i like the Packard." he admitted with a grin as he helped her pack up the food and the flowers. "it is. i love romance." he admitted with a smile as he carried the heavy basket like it was a tissue down to the car, promising her that he would wash the dishes later. they headed down to the Pier and beach and he spread out the large blanket so they wouldn't have to put their food on sand and handed her half of the lilies, unaware of the danger they where in the Assassin's Target. Steve gently laid out the flowers and watched the waves sweep them away, glancing at her as he reached into his pocket, feeling the box. "Krys?" he asked softly. "i..." he swallowed thickly before settling onto his knees. "i had this whole speech planned out, and now i can't remember a word of it." he admitted as he offered her the box. inside was three Rings. one awoman'swith three gems, clearly symbolizing three parts of a whole. himself, Bucky and Krystal. the other two rings where completely identicalMen'sbands, one for Steve, and one to go on the necklace to symbolize Bucky.

Thor nodded. "That is very true, Alexandyr. Love does tame even the biggest beast." He said, agreeing with the other man. Thor took the last sip of his coffee and set it on the table with the other dishes, amazed when Loki took them and washed them. That was certainly a change. Back on Asgard, Loki had hated doing chores like that. "When you are finished, we will go down to the R&D floors, okay?" He asked, simply watching Loki do the dishes happily. It was almost surreal.
JJ chuckled at his lover. "I can make it taste like anything you want. Its just a simple altering the formula to make the taste change." He admitted with a smile, before he moaned a bit more. His neck was so sensitive. "Fuck tony.. I know. You turn me on." He breathed out, the sounds of the other's moans as he was carried to the bedroom intoxicating. When he had tony on the bed, he handcuffed him to it, smirking. "New toys huh? Brilliant." He said with an almost obscene grin, kissing his fiancee before going to fetch a few fun things from the box. JJ settled on a nipple clip with attached vibrating clock ring, a silk blind fold, a whip, and Tony's favorite, his own stiff cock. This was gonna be the best sex ever.
Krystal smiled as he helped her get everything in the car. He was such a gentleman. She gave him a light kiss as he got into the car with her, and she smiled and sang softly as he drove off to the beach. She watched as he set everything out, giving him another light kiss. "This is nice, just the two of us. Seems like you're always on missions." She said softly, taking a bite of a cucumber sandwich on Italian bread. She hated wheat bread, unless it was fresh baked. When Steve got down on one knee, Krystal's eyes widened like saucers. She took the box, and opened it to see the rings, gasping. 3 rings, one for their bucky too. "Oh Stevie.. of course I'll marry you!" She exclaimed, hugging him tightly, slipping one of the men's rings on his finger. Krystal took off her necklace only a moment to put the second ring on it. "Bucky, wherever you are, please know we love you." She said as she smiled, cuddling into her supersoldier, both happy and sad tears pricking her eyes. When they had finished, she quickly cleaned everything up, putting it back in the basket and kissing Steve. "Ready to go, mi'love?" She asked, smiling at him, her new engagement ring, and the one on her necklace shining brightly in the sunlight.

Loki smiled a little. he knew the effects of Love. when Domingo had first found him, he had been as good as a raging beast himself,. snarling and fearful of everything and everyone. attacking anything that got too close to him. it had taken over a month for Domingo to sooth Loki's fury at the world and even longer to seduce him. Loki was quite glad with how things had finally turned out, though he wished Domingo was free and here with him, enjoying all the amazing things here. "i would like that!" Loki agreed, happily setting the dishes in a little dish drainer before drying his hands and headed for the bedroom to dress in something other than his sleep pants and silky sleep shirt. "i'm ready." he stated happily as he came out wearing a cute sweater and jeans. "do you need to stop at your room to get dressed?" Loki asked curiously, realizing that Thor was still in his own Pajamas.
he grinned. "whiskey?" he asked. "Scotch?" he asked. "Coffee!?" he asked, grinning as he moaned at his lover. "good. i should turn you on." he panted eagerly as he wriggled. "nnng." he loved the handcuffs. he felt so deliciously helpless. "oh god yes." he moaned as he wriggled, watching JJ choose the items. "please. god. JJ!" he gasped, wanting nothing more than to be fucked into the mattress.
he smiled. "i know. it's been hectic lately." he admitted. "but it's not like i can't go. people would get hurt." heart of gold. his favorite day was Sunday, when he went to the long term ward at the various children's hospitals. he did volunteer work for Make a Wish too. he went to Florida the other day to visit a little girl who had cancer. how could he not help children? "oh good." he breathed, nearly sagging with relief. he knew it was silly to have been worried, but still... he had been. after the mess with Bucky... well, that didn't matter really. "i'm sure he's smiling." he agreed as he smiled at her. "yeah. lets go." he agreed, kissing her gently. "i hope everything's going alright at the Tower." he admitted.

Thor smiled "yes, that would probably be a good idea." the thunder god admitted before he chuckled, walking toward the elevator. He wasn't gone more tghan a few minutes, dressing in a soft blue tshirt that showed off his muscles, jeans and brown boots. "Okay, now i'm ready to show you around." he said with a smile, leading loki to the elevators where they would go down nearly 20 levels to reach the top R&D level in the tower.
JJ chuckled and nodded. 'yes, even scotch whiskey and coffee.' he stated, smiling at his lover and he walked him to the bed and handcuffed him. he knew how much tony liked the handcuffs. JJ was quick to strip his lover, and himself, putting on the blind fold first before the nipple clips and attached cock ring. He smirked. "Always tony mi'love. always." he admitted to tony's turning on comment as he stuck the butt plug on without warning, his smirk widening. he had just gotten an aweful idea. 'maybe i should leave you tied up like this all helpless? its sexy watching you squirm." the man admitted, giving his lover a kiss as he stroked tony's now vibrating cock.
Krystal smiled and gave him a light kiss. "I know love. I don't fault you for it." She told him softly, smiling again. She loved what he did for little children, and wanted to come, but she didn't dare. Krystal was a bleeding heart, and should she go to a terminal children's ward? Her magic would overflow from her emotions, and heal them all. While that wasn't necesarrily a bad thing, she wasn't sure if it was necesarrily the right thing. She looked at him, her glacial blue eyes curious. Had he thought she would say no? While it was true bucky had taken a toll on her, and she feared him dying on her now too, but she said yes anyway because she loved him, more than anything, and just as much as she still felt for bucky. They were her anchors. If Steve were to die again, she wouldn't know what to do. Krystal kissed him back. "I love you. Let's go home and get in bed , huh? I'd like a piece of my sexy captain." She said with a wide smirk, carrying the basket back to the car, it much less heavy now that all the food was eaten, mostly by her fiancee. Krystal maybe in most cases like a super soldier, but she really never ate much. It was a moonian trait. They only ever ate enough to survive, even when famished. She got into the car, waiting for him, simply because he hated having her drive.
