					<div class="bbWrapper">Loki's lips pressed together, his fingers grasping the railing of his balcony until his knuckles turned white. The  winter air was cold, but he barely felt it. He barely felt his own body. It was as if he were floating in nothingness, his mind trying to comprehend what everything meant.<br>
<br>
<br>
He had fallen in love with a mortal.<br>
<br>
<br>
A mortal with an even shorter life expectancy than most. And his time was running out.<br>
<br>
<br>
Try as he might he couldn't find a way to save him. There was nothing that he, Loki, a god amongst men, could do to save the one person who had made everything right. Who had shattered his walls, broke him down, and built him up again.<br>
<br>
<br>
He had never expected that there would be anyone like Tony Stark, and yet here they were. And time was running out.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:06:41 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony flew over the city, the sound of JARVIS just a hum of chatter against his thoughts. Loki had disappeared immediately after Tony had told him the news. Well, more like accidentally let it slip. Tony was a great liar, but terrible at keeping track of who knows what and who doesn't. One off hand remark about not having to be around for the dreaded avenger xmas party and Loki was on him like a hawk for information. The god of lies and mischief knows, just knows when your trying to hide something. Tony hadn't Told anyone else but Pepper until then. He would have to make preparations for her to take over the company when he was gone. Loki had given him a blank stare when he had said he was going to die, then vanished. God only knew what was going on in his head, it's not news anyone wants to hear, especially for someone they loved. Now Tony was using JARVIS to track him down and have a heart to heart with him. Surprisingly enough, JARVIS picked up his readings at his penthouse. Seemed just to easy that he would be there, but there he was. Tony saw him on the balcony and landed a few feet from him, removing his helmet. "The view here is great, don't you think? Sure it probably can't top Asgard, but earth has it's moments." Tony smiled.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:09:48 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki didn't move a muscle as Tony landed on his balcony. He couldn't. If he so much as twitched he would lose himself, and he couldn't let that happen. Not now. Not ever. Instead he let his eyes slid out of focus, the rush of blood roared in his ears, drowning out everything else.<br>
<br>
<br>
He wasn't ready for this. He wasn't ready to lose everything all over again.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:17:57 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony sighed. Walking up to Loki and standing next to him, metal shoulder just barley touching his. He followed Loki's gaze out over the water. It was quiet, almost perfectly silent, except for the low hum of his robotic suit. His arc reactor shed light on the otherwise dark scene. Tony was bad at this. This was not his area. He could fight super villains, save cities, and drink until he blacked out. But comfort someone with lame platitudes that even he knew were bullshit? No, not his area.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Im 45, and fly around in a mechanical suit and almost die on a daily basis. In all honesty, arnt you more surprised I'm still alive right now?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony looked over at Loki.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I wasn't going to tell you...I.. I just didn't want to see your face, the face your making right now, ever, and know I put that expression on there."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:24:20 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Slowly Loki closed his eyes, savoring the feeling of Tony's prescence. Time was running out after all. And he was a fool.<br>
<br>
<br>
"To be struck down in battle is not something you can anticipate." his words were slow, carefully measured to hide just how much control he was putting into each syllable. "To know... and then not... tell me."<br>
<br>
<br>
Opening his eyes again he pulled away from the railing. Away from Tony. He wanted so badly for this to be just another nightmare. But it wasn't. This was real, and he didn't have time.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I could have helped you..." his teeth clicked shut as his voice cracked. For a moment he contemplated disapearing. To just leave Midgard behind.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12<img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon3-closedeyecatsmile.23712/full?d=1488656846" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":33:" title="cat face smile closed eyes    :33:" data-shortname=":33:">08 AM] Tanya Stark: "There is nothing you could have done. The shrapnel is just to far in, the arc reactor is barley holding on. I can't even switch it out for a new one, that's how close it is."<br>
<br>
<br>
The last thing he wanted was for Loki to blame himself. "I'm not happy about it either you know. I finally turn my life around -stop making weapons, stop drinking and sleeping around, and finally do some good- then boom! It's all over." Tony takes one hand off the railing, letting his arm fall to his side. This was just too much to deal with. Too much at once. "When we first met, even though you through me out a window... I was all ready falling in Love with you. You were so cunning, smart, devilishly good looking, how could I not? Being with you....that's what I'll miss the most." Tony just stared at Loki's back. He could see the tension, even when he wasn't facing him.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:42:23 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki couldn't turn around. He couldn't look Tony in the eye.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You don't know anything, Stark." he turned now, the wind stung his eyes were tears had begun to form, but he did not notice. "I could have saved you! Just as you saved me..."<br>
<br>
<br>
He staggered back, catching himself on the railing again.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stupid, naieve, fool!" he shouted, feeling his anger bubble up, he couldn't stop, "You couldn't tell me because you were afraid! Because you are a coward. You. The great man of iron, afraid of how I would take the news. Were you afraid that I would leave you to die alone?<br>
<br>
<br>
"Did you honestly think that there was no chance that I would have been able to do something?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:52:51 AM] Tanya Stark: "You know that's not true. Listen, here's the thing with death. Everyone talks about the 'what ifs' and 'what could I have done' but none of that matters. You can scream at the past all you want but it won't change the future. Go ahead, call me a coward. Tell me i'm a shitty person. Say what you need to say while i'm still here. I won't hold any of it against you, I would be pissed too if I was you."  Tony walked slowly towards Loki, like he was a wild animal and the slightest wrong movement would scare him away. Tony stepped in front of him, the cold winter air seemed not to affect Loki in the slightest, while Tony was feeling the chill in his face without his helmet. Tony spoke in almost a whisper. "If I remember correctly, you didn't tell me you were a frost giant till a week ago. Where you afraid of how I would take the news? That I would leave you?" Tony said, mimicking Loki's words.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:00:48 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Do not twist my words, Anthony." Loki hissed, "My inheritance does not warrent my death. It is not something that can be changed. Something that can be prevented."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki leaned forward, his teeth clenched. He wanted to strike out, to destroy the very building that held them over the water's edge. He wanted to destroy everything on this miserable world. Tear it all apart, piece by piece, watch it bleed out into a dry husk.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You know nothing of this universe. You don't know what answers lie out there! I do! I know I could have saved you." his hands reached up to cup either side of Tony's face, his eyes softening, "I can't picture myself without you... we could have been immortal, together..." he rested his forehead against Tony's, "Why couldn't you have believed in me, Tony?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:09:36 AM] Tanya Stark: "I do believe in you, It's all I believe in." Loki's forehead felt like ice against Tony's. Slowly, he leaned in and kissed Loki, softly. Pulling away from the kiss Tony laughed "you could always throw me off the balcony, if it would make you smile i'd let you." He reached up, putting his metal hands over Loki's. "Must you always wear that glamour? " Tony said, looking up at Loki. Tony moved one of his hands away and placed it on Loki's cheek, wiping away a tear that rolled down.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:13:25 AM] Loki Laufeyson: And just like that Loki felt all his anger melt away like icey water.<br>
<br>
<br>
"It is my armor." he murmured softly even as he slowly let the facade go. Pale skin darkened and rose into flowing patterns. "Just as you hide in your suit, I hide myself."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:18:41 AM] Tanya Stark: "Such a shame, with a beautiful face like that." Tony put his arms around Loki's waist. With his suit on he was tall enough to look at Loki without craning his neck. "I'm going to miss that face, especially when it smiles, that's my favorite expression of yours. You have so many different smiles."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:21:45 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki smiled softly and pulled Tony into a hug.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I will not give up on you." he declared resolutely, "I will find a way to pull the shrapnel away."<br>
<br>
<br>
He pulled away, his hands cupping Tony's cheeks as he met his gaze. His red eyes burned with determination.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Come with me, Tony. Come with me and together we will find a way to reverse what has been done. Please..."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:22:17 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I can't lose everything again..." he breathed so softly that Tony almost didn't catch the last bit.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:39:30 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony was about to say something when JARVIS's voice echoed from the helmet.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Sir, a direct call from Captain Rogers, shall I patch him through?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony groaned. Of course Avengers business would happen. It seemed every time he was alone with Loki some ass hat monster or mad scientist would attack the city.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Patch him through, Jarv, voice only." Tony didn't need them to see Loki. Tony was starting to wonder when he started collecting so many huge secrets.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony," Rogers voice boomed from the helmet on the ground, "where are you? We got one heck of a situation down here. Head over asap. Im giving JARVIS the coordinates and briefing." Steve stated, and out if all of that Tony was more impressed that Steve actually knew how to send JARVIS anything. Tony turned to Loki who had been listening, brows knitted together.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Business calls, Love." Tony kissed him one more time, Loki's blue lips leaving a fresh icy taste on his mouth.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:42:15 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "They will be able to manage without you." Loki said, grabbing at Tony's hand, "If you exert yourself like this-" but Tony wasn't listening. He had his helmet back on and he was gone. Just like that.<br>
<br>
<br>
The clock was speeding up.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki cursed under his breath, unconciously placing a hand on his belly. Why did it have to be him. Why did he fall in love with such a foolish man?<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:52:09 AM | Edited 2:02:16 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony wasn't surprised anymore. He had seen it all, from robots to mutant aliens. But he was amused, mainly because Bruce -still in human form, but judging by his temper not much longer- was furious. Apparently a scientist, who was in desperate need of a new hobby, tried to recreate the gamma radiation effect that Banner had worked with and turn himself into a hulk.  Problem was, it looked like he was unable to turn back. So they had a huge, red, angry hulk destroying everything in sight. Clint was up high shooting arrows like it would do anything, Natasha was with Cap, and Thor was on a skyscraper.Tony flew down next to Steve who was yelling something at Banner.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why are you still small Banner?" Tony said as way of greeting.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm working on it! I just nee-" but he never finished the sentence because Tony strolled between him and Steve and kicked Banner right in the nuts.<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve winced.<br>
<br>
<br>
Banner turned full Hulk.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony laughed. Now they could start getting to the action.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 1:58:45 AM] Loki Laufeyson: And action packed it was. Bruce took the beast head on, causing more destruction than Tony wanted to consider. Instead he and the others got in shots when they could. Thor had called down lightening when the red brute threw Bruce into a nearby skyscrapper, disorientating him for a second. The lightening made him pause but only for a moment as he swatted the god to the side. That had been when he noticed Tony, buzzing around like an annoying gnat. And like that he didn't care about any of the others, not even Bruce surprisingly enough.<br>
<br>
<br>
And the chase began. Despite having taken everything they'd thrown at him the red hulk barely seemed winded as he smacked Tony out of the air and came crashing down barely a block from where he landed. This was it then. This would be how he died...<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:05:24 AM] Loki Laufeyson: A pair of strong arms lifted him bridal style and then they were away, inside a small shop. Loki looked down at him with blazing red eyes, his teeth were bared in anger, but before Tony could say a word he was gone again.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki roared as he charged foward, his hands to either side, his claws ready. Adrenaline pushed him forward, everystep moving him faster and faster. It didn't matter that he wasn't the strongest. Nor did his size matter. Tony would not die here. And neither would he.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki stood breathing heavily, his sharp teeth were still barred. What was left of the fool scientist was sprawled across the street and on what remained of the buildings around them. Steaming blood covered him, sliding off slowly as his magic burned it away.<br>
<br>
<br>
Vision slowly clearing he staggered and fell to one knee before he was back up, moving as fast as he could to where he had left Tony.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:15:55 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony opened his eyes, surprised to see he wasn't dead, however his joy was short lived. Standing, he wobbled and fell to his knees, clutching his chest. He knew he would start to feel the pain of the shrapnel eventually, but god, it hurt so much worse than he thought. Tony pawed at his armour, he needed to get out of it, fast.<br>
<br>
<br>
"JARVIS, power down the suit." Tony breathed, feeling slight relief when the chest plate was off. He fell forward, one hand on the ground and the other clutching his arc reactor. He saw Loki rushing over out of his peripheral.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:21:02 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki fell to his knees beside the man, grabbing him as he looked him over. He placed a cold hand over Tony's heart, his eyes closing. Tony felt an icey chill in his veins and the pain in his chest eased. His breathing became less labored and his panic eased.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I told you not to go," Loki opened his eyes again, "But you just cannot listen to me."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony!" Steve shouted, legs pumping as he dashed towards them, his shield poised to be thrown. Next to him Loki barred his teeth, moving to position himself infront of the man.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:24:35 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Come no closer!" he shouted, crouching as though preparing to leap forward and attack. Steve slowed, his eyes flickering behind them. Loki barely had time to react as he felt the barrel of a gun press against the back of his head. Despite this he did not relax.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:34:48 AM] Tanya Stark: "Ok...everyone...everyone chill the fuck out." Tony said, trying to compose himself after the horrific pain he was just in. Loki's magic was like a bandaid on a open wound, Tony knew eventually he would have to deal with the pain, but not today.<br>
<br>
<br>
Natasha's gun held steady on Loki as clint and Thor ran in. Bruce was probably naked somewhere in the city, poor guy.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Brother!" Thor yelled, looking at Natasha with a frown.<br>
<br>
<br>
"How...was he the one I saw go ape shit and blow that monster to bits?" Clint exclaimed, eying Loki suspiciously.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony stood up, suit left in the ground, and walked over to Natasha, anger visible on his face.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Put the gun down." Tony said with a clipped voice, putting his hand on the gun and lowering it. Natasha silently let him, then put it back on her belt.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You ok, Loki?" Tony asked concerned. Loki had a crazy look to his eyes, and Tony knew that meant he had to calm him down or someone was getting murdered.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony gently touched his hand on Loki's. "Hey, hey it's ok. I'm fine, everything is fine." He said soothingly.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:40:40 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Frost had begun to creep out from where Loki stood and was slowly overtaking the building, chilling the already cold night air. He knew that Tony would be safe amongst his comrades. He repeated it in his mind as he looked Tony over once more. Slowly the frost ebbed away even as Loki donned his glamor once more.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Is this where you put me in chains?" Loki asked, he smiled challengingly at the Avengers, relaxing his stance.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you tell us just what is going we might not have to." came Steve's response. Loki looked at him sharply, but said nothing as he looked back at Tony. His expression was unreadable, but his eyes were questioning.<br>
<br>
<br>
'How much do you want them to know?'<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:40:53 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (how was that for a rise?)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:49:34 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony faltered. He didn't expect that this was how he was going to break the news to the team. Which news, he wasn't sure. Hell, he might as well spill all the beans now. Bruce walked in, confusion on his face. He had a pair of pants on with a price tag still on them.<br>
<br>
<br>
Natasha walked over to the rest of the team and crossed her arms. "Tell us whats going on Tony." She said sternly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"What, exactly, am I dealing with here?" Rogers added.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thor just continued to look at his brother like he wanted to say something, but was afraid it would just make him run anyway.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok," Tony started, rubbing soothing circles in Loki's hand. "Um, I'm sleeping with the enemy..ah...for a while now. He's actually not that evil, well, he can be an ass from time to time, but overall he hasn't killed anyone in a while- well Hmm, I guess that's not helpful- and also I'm dying from the shrapnel because my arc reactor can no longer hold it back."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony hoped the silence that followed from everyone was a good sign.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 2:57:53 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Very eloquent." Loki murmured as he took in each reaction. For the most part it was exactly what he expected. The initial reaction was that of a slap to the face. Confliction ran over each face. Had he told Loki everything? Obviously not as they would be dead if he had. Why were they sleeping together? Well they wouldn't get an answer to that. And then why didn't he tell them he was dying?<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve stepped forward,<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony, why didn't you tell us the shrapnel was getting closer?" his brows were knitted forward in a way that Loki didn't care for. He also didn't quite care for the fact that they knew about the shrapnel in the first place.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Come back with me to Asgard. Our healers can help you." Thor offered, Loki found it harder to pinpoint just what his brother was thinking which was odd.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The healers can do nothing more than slow the shards." Loki interjected. "And that is only if Odin allows it."<br>
<br>
<br>
"He will understand."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki smiled, "Will he? Tony's life does not affect Asgard. His death will do nothing and therefore means nothing."<br>
<br>
<br>
Thor frowned, "Let me talk to Father."<br>
<br>
<br>
"You would be wasting your time."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 3:00:07 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I cannot simply stand here and watch my comrade die." Thor stepped closer and Loki tensed, jaw clenching.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I will find a way." he declared slowly, "He will not die."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok guys, calm down. Let's talk about this later, I'm exhausted. Any one else exhausted? Bruce you look worn out." Tony said, stepping between Thor and Loki. Nothing set Loki's nerves on edge like his brother.<br>
<br>
<br>
Rogers looked at Tony, and damn he looked sad. Tony was hating all the faces he was causing everyone to make over this news, this was exactly why he put off telling everyone.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok, Tony's right." Steve started, "Let's head back to the tower."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony didn't get much time to relax. Fury was, well, furious over the destruction done to the city, not that they could help it, giant red hulk and all that. He was even more upset over Tony harbouring a known criminal. Thor has stepped in at that point and Fury backed down. The last thing he wanted was a war with Asgard over imprisoning Asgardian royalty.<br>
<br>
<br>
The worst of it was all the looks the team was giving him. Those stupid pitying looks because he was dying. Rogers stopped fighting with him, Clint no longer bantered against him. Bruce was a master at looking like someone kicked his puppy. Tony could only take so much before he caved and let himself have a drink. Why the hell not.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 12:40:45 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki did his best to draw Tony's attention from his teammates. All he wanted to do was to pull him close and teleport them far away from their pitiying looks self-wallowing. Thor was the only one who stood resolutely, assuring Tony that he would do all he could to convince his Father. For once in a very long time Loki was grateful to the Asgardian.<br>
<br>
<br>
The oaf could be stupid, but he had his uses.<br>
<br>
<br>
And now Thor was gone and so was Tony. For a brief moment Loki felt himself panic before scolding himself. The mortal wouldn't simply dissapear. If he was not in the tower than he would return. He still had time.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 8:39:28 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony decided to go to a dive bar deep in the city. He wore his leather coat to hide his arc reactor, he was in no mood for autographs. He was on his third beer when the very attractive female bar tender stopped in front of him, eyeing him fondly.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 8:53:06 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Rough night?" she asked though it was painfully obvious. When Tony didn't give a response she nodded and turned to mix a drink. Within a minute she had place a tumbler full of alcohol in front of him. It was dark and smelled faintly of bourbon.<br>
<br>
<br>
"My special cocktail. Help to forget, or at least make life easier to handle. My treat." she smiled softly, a smile not unlike Loki's.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 8:58:45 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony looked at the drink and nodded, taking a sip. "Good stuff." He needed to drown out the noise in his head. He kept replaying the conversation with Loki on the balcony in his head. It was funny, Tony was the one dying, but he was more worried about leaving Loki behind, lost and alone, than he was of his own demise.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 9:01:40 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "To what do we owe the honor of having you down here?" she leaned onto the bar, a can of soda in her hand. "Got tired of all the oggling?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 9:06:44 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony laughed. He was getting thoroughly drunk, which was nice. It had been so long since he had a drink his body was basically humming with excitement. "I'm dying, that's why I'm here. Quit drinking actually, but It doesn't matter now, so cheers." Tony held up his glass and took a sip. "Worst part is I finally had something to live for, now I'm losing it all." Tony rubbed his temples. His vision was getting fuzzy and he was feeling warm. It was a nice contrast to how he usually felt.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 10:44:04 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Life plays a cruel game." the bartender hummed, her expression was one of understanding rather than pity. As Tony finished off his first drink she placed another in front of him. "Lost my brother to lung cancer. Never touched a cigarette in his life, but he didn't let that stop him. No. He kept going until the very end and even then they had to force him into a hospital bed."<br>
<br>
<br>
She smiled fondly at the memory, her finger tapping the side of her can.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Whatever it is that you're living for, fight for it. Hold on and fight. Life is worth too much to let it slip away so easily."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 10:57:54 PM] Loki Laufeyson: (why do women have flowers on their panties)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:07:33 PM | Edited 11:09:07 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony hummed in agreement and downed the drink. He left a 50 on the counter as a tip and got up to leave, wobbling slightly. Before the girl could voice her concerns about him driving Tony spoke up."I have a driver, pay him for shit like this." Tony made a wave with his hand. "Have a good night."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony could have swore he was only in the car a few minutes when Frank, his driver woke him up.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Sir, were here."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony was to comfy and didn't want to get up.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ugggh fiiiine." He mumbled, stumbling into his house.<br>
<br>
<br>
JARVIS was rattling of updates and info about meetings as he wondered inside, all of which Tony was to drunk to understand.<br>
<br>
<br>
When he got to the living room he found Loki sitting on the couch, fixing him with a pointed stare. Tony loved Loki's annoyed face, it made him want to go over and bury his face in Loki's neck and just breath in his scent. Damn. Now he was horny and drunk.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why are you awake? Not that I mind." Tony mumbled, collapsing on the couch next to Loki, nuzzling up to him.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:11:50 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "You've been drinking." Loki noted, refraining from returning the man's affection. "I was beginning to worry."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:12:27 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki put the tablet to the side and turned to fully face Tony. He frowned and sighed.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:16:53 PM] Tanya Stark: "What? It's not like it really matters. Figured I could go out drinking one more time before I-" and Tony shut his mouth realizing that was the wrong thing to say."Forget about it." Tony drummed his fingers on Loki's leg. He was feeling all warm and fuzzy and wanted to be all over Loki. The alcohol was making his brain nice and blank, a good relief from all the thinking he had been doing lately.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:23:18 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "You have truely given up then." it was a question disguised as a statement. Loki looked down at Tony's hand on his leg. Did they really have so little time left? How he could he simply give up? After everything they had been through and everything they had yet to experience. What would happen... Loki closed his eyes, not wanting to bring it up, but knowing he would have to eventually.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:26:01 PM] Tanya Stark: "I'm not giving up, I'm being realistic." Tony mumbled into Loki's neck, where he started kissing him. Tony let his hand trail up Loki's leg. "How about a new topic? Like how hot your going to look without all those clothes."Tony always was a flirtatious drunk.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:30:57 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki stood, quickly putting distance between them.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Realisticly speaking you would have never been able to defeat me would I have truely wanted to end you." he turned, eyes narrowing, "Realisticly speaking you and I should have never become so close. Realisticly speaking I should have been dead a long time ago. Yet here we are. And here you are, so ready to say there is no other way and drown your self-pity in cheap liquor."<br>
<br>
<br>
His eyes blazed and he felt a small pang of regret. Why hadn't he gone looking for him? He should know by now that he could never let the mortal out of his sight with him causing trouble.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:37:33 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony sighed. He was in no mood for one of Loki's hissy fits. "Really? Were going to have this conversation now? It's three a.m. and I am just not up to it. What is with you and your bad vibe lately. I'm the one whose dying, if anyone gets to freakout about it, it should be me. You live, what, 5000 years or something? You probably won't even remember me." And the moment the words left his mouth he wanted to shove them back in. Tony rubbed his face, continuing, "I didn't mean it like that."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:42:03 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki's jaw clenched and he moved forward so quickly that Tony couldn't even begin to follow his movements. When he stopped in front of Tony he thought that they god might strike him, but instead he simply grabbed the man's hand.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I do not wish to only have stories and memories," Loki pressed Tony's hand against his bare stomach. He closed his eyes and for a moment Tony looked at him confused, but then he felt it. Loki's heartbeat was strong and steady, but inbetween the beating of his heart there was another, softer rythm. Loki opened his eyes to guage the man's reaction. "I am no longer the only one you have to live for."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:48:05 PM] Tanya Stark: For once Tony didn't know what to say. This was all to surreal. "You...for real?" Was all he could say, before putting his free hand behind Loki's neck and pulling him into a kiss. When they parted tony looked into Loki's eyes, all concern. "I don't think there is anything else I would rather live for. I'm sorry, I'm an idiot. I didn't know."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/20/2015 11:51:19 PM | Edited 7/21/2015 12:00:50 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Because I didn't want you to know. Not until I knew for sure." Loki lowered himself back onto the couch next to Tony, "It is not fate that has lead you down this path. You still have the chance to live, but you must fight. Not just for you, but for us. For our child."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony rested his head on Loki's shoulder. "I won't stop fighting, for you, and for the baby." He said softly, absent mindedly touching Loki's stomach.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I didn't know this could happen. But you are an alien, so I shouldn't be surprised." Tony trailed kisses up Loki's neck, stopping by his ear. "How far along are you? Is it...a standard 9 months like here on Earth, erm, midgard?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 12:28:27 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "It is a side affect of my shapeshifting. As for terms it depends on the race of my partner." he spoke so casually about it that for a moment Tony almost believed that it wasn't a big deal. "I believe it has been three months. It is hard to tell as I didn't have most warning signs."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 12:35:07 AM] Tanya Stark: "I have to rewrite my whole will now-Don't give me that look, wills are a standard thing in business- to include the kid. Ugh, paperwork." Tony was starting to sober up, or maybe it was just the shock of finding out he was going to be a dad. He wasn't ready for all this. He had a month, tops, before he kicked the bucket. But he was a genius, and Loki was insane, so between the two of them maybe, just maybe, they would figure something out.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Let's go to bed. I need sleep, baby needs sleep-and yes i'm going to use that argument to get you to behave." Tony hummed.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki hummed in amusement as he allowed himself to be lead to their shared bedroom. For better or for worse they were moving forward. Together they slipped beneath the covers, warm bodies pressing close, and soft murmurs being exchanged before they dropped off into sleep.<br>
<br>
<br>
For six hours they were able to pretend that all was well. And for six hours all was well.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:07:18 AM] Loki Laufeyson: And then Steve had returned with Natasha to hear the entire story.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:13:08 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony was actually up at a descent hour, but not by choice. Loki had spent the morning throwing up in the bathroom, which was very hard to sleep through. Tony briefly wondered how Loki managed to keep the pregnancy a secret for three months. Tony had even went into the bathroom to see if there was anything he could do to help only to be met by a deadly glare from Loki. So Tony went down stairs to the common area and made coffee. Coffee would ease his troubles and his hangover. His morning had been ruined however by Steve's frowning face.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The more you hang out with Fury the more you look like him."<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve was going to say something until Natasha put an arm on him and shook her head. "He's baiting you into an argument so he won't have to talk." She said. Damn. This is why Tony didn't like spys, they knew bullshit as much as he did.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:19:19 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Do we have any pineapples?" Loki asked as he strolled into the kitchen. He looked tired but surprisingly awake considering how little sleep he had gotten. He barely acknowledged Steve or Natasha as he opened the fridge.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So this is a normal thing now?" Steve asked, turning to glance at Loki.<br>
<br>
<br>
"No, I do not normally crave pineapples." Loki settled instead for the hamburger pickles that had been shoved to the back of the fridge.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:19:42 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Steve closed his eyes for a moment, collecting himself.<br>
<br>
<br>
"JARVIS, place an order for organic pineapples. Oh! Also Jarv, anything food wise Loki wants, order it for him." Tony said to the ceiling.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Noted, Sir." JARVIS drawled.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony had long ago gave Loki access to JARVIS, not full access, but enough to get by. Tony was selfish when it came to his A.I.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Sit down steve, I'll make waffles, then we can talk." Tony put an arm on the small of Loki's back. "Want some waffles?" He asked, grinning. "I'll put whatever you want on them."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:32:42 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki tipped the pickle jar towards him questioningly.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1<img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon3-closedeyecatsmile.23712/full?d=1488656846" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":33:" title="cat face smile closed eyes    :33:" data-shortname=":33:">05 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (I just want to see Tony's reaction)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:38:03 AM] Tanya Stark: "Ok, ew." Tony pushed the jar away from his face. "Loki it is amazing how You ate like this without me noticing. I need to spend less time in my shop. Now that I think about it, you did order ketchup on your ice cream at that restaurant last week."<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve and Natasha were ignoring them and instead speaking in hushed tones to each other. Tony was always annoyed at being whispered about.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I wanna join your secret club too! Leaving me out, shesh, the nerve." Tony joked as he got the waffle ingredients out, moving around Loki who was still holding the pickle jar.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:39:23 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (What are they whispering about????)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:39:32 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (I wanna know too)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:40:14 AM] Tanya Stark: (Ok ok  xD )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:41:40 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki huffed quietly, "it's a simple matter of you're ignorance of people. It really wasn't very difficult."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:46:54 AM] Tanya Stark: "Steve's convinced you're being controlled, whereas I think your just an adrenaline addict who's attracted to danger." Natasha said bluntly, giving Tony a steele gaze.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony ignored her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why do you always wear green?" Tony asked quizzicaly at Loki, his short attention span worse in the mornings. "Never mind, doesn't matter. What was I doing? Oh yeah, waffles."<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve rubbed the bridge of his nose. "Fine, waffles then we talk." He said, like he was talking to a child.<br>
<br>
<br>
Bruce walked into the common room at that moment, saw Loki, and immediately turned around and left.<br>
<br>
<br>
Probably for the best, Tony mused. Plus, less waffles to make, though the smell would probably attract Clint out of whatever hole he was hiding in.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:47:33 AM] Loki Laufeyson:  xD<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:49:55 AM] Tanya Stark: (I know right  xD )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 1:54:56 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki smiled in amusement.<br>
<br>
<br>
"On the contrary he is immune to my magic." he fished out a pickle and popped into his mouth, "Though I've been told I can be quite charming."<br>
<br>
<br>
True to theory Clint was drawn out of hiding by the waffles. When he saw Loki he stopped and did a double take.<br>
<br>
<br>
"This is fucked up." he shook his head and slowly took a seat next to Natasha. A few minutes later Tony was setting plates of waffles in front of everyone. Loki promptly scattered pickles over his and added only a little syrup.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Are you pregnant or something?" Clunt asked mortified by the combination.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki frowned at the archer.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I would have thought my prescense would have been more bothersome than my eating habits." he twirled his fork between his fingers and Clint's waffles devolved into a writhing pile of beatles.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:02:13 AM] Tanya Stark: Clint fell backwards off his stool shouting a litany of swear words, before getting back up and seeing his waffles back to normal. "Your lucky i'm hungry." He said, taking a bite.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony playfully swatted Loki's shoulder. "Be nice to the poor guy, he has to put up with Natasha." Tony said,  Natasha just shrugged and handed her plate to Tony to put waffles on.<br>
<br>
<br>
All in all it was a very pleasant breakfast, small chatter and laughter filled the room and no one would know there was an underlying tension beneath it all. Of course, nothing lasts, and Thor came in just in time to ruin everything.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony had nothing against Thor, but Loki did, and if Loki was on edge, then Tony was on edge.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thor stopped in his tracks when he saw Loki, and the whole room seemed to look between the two brothers unsure of what was going to happen.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Brother! How wonderful of you to join us this morning!" Thor proclaimed.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:03:47 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (Has Thor returned from Asgard?)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:04:21 AM] Tanya Stark: (He wasnt on asgard, u changed it remember?)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:04:50 AM] Tanya Stark: (He was there for the battle against red hulk)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:05:30 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (But he was going to convince Odin to help Tony, we'll just say he hasn't left yet)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:05:39 AM] Tanya Stark: (That works)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:08:55 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I thought you had returned to Asgard." Loki's response was clipped but he forced himself to relax for Tony's sake. For once he simply wanted things to be peaceful.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Aye, I shall return today and on the morrow we will get Stark the help he needs."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki frowned but said nothing more as Thor joined them at the table and looked curiously at Loki's unfinished plate.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why did you put pickles on your waffles?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:15:44 AM] Tanya Stark: "It's a Midgard thing, you should try it." Tony said, earning a reprimanding look from Steve. "What?" Tony replied, shrugging. "It could be, who knows what they eat in England."<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve wasted no time when they were done eating to get to the point. Steve always had a way of killing the mood. It must be a 1940's thing.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony," Steve started to say. "Can I speak with you...in private." Steve glanced over at Loki.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony ruffled his hair then stood up, taking Loki's and his plates to the dishwasher. "That's up to Loki. What do you think, you wanna be there for this....convo or not?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:18:44 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I believe there is nothing to hide anymore." Loki shrugged almost casually. His eyes regarding Steve with a mild interest.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:28:41 AM] Tanya Stark: Bruce, drawn out by hunger, sneeked in to the kitchen, grabbed some waffles and left. Tony laughed at that, then looked back at Steve.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok Cap, I'm an open book, what do you want to know?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve and Natasha shared a look before responding.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So...your dying." And it wasn't even a question.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony leaned on the counter and crossed his arms. "Yes. My arc reactor isn't holding up to all the damage it's been taking. Removing will just instantly kill me, so instead I get a slow death from the shrapnel. I have a month, tops." Tony looked over at Loki, then hastily added "but, we are working on finding a way out of this mess."<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve put his palms flat on the counter. "Ok. Nice of you to inform the team."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey, Better late then never." Tony quipped.<br>
<br>
<br>
Clint spoke through a mouthful of waffles. "I think the big question is-" he pointed to Loki "what the fuck? Really?" Clint was either unfazed by the announcement of Tony's soon to be death, or just more worried about the presence of Loki.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:31:11 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki looked at Clint with a raised eyebrow.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I do not believe you have much room to say anything. You have some very interesting things stored away in the air vents."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:32:04 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (I don't know why but I'm really tired, but I just wanted to get that snippet out because I'm on mobile)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:32:18 AM] Tanya Stark: (Ok no worries)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:32:32 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (I'm afraid I must bid you a goodnight)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 2:32:44 AM] Tanya Stark: (Goodnight!)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/21/2015 12:01:45 PM] Tanya Stark: Clint made a pained face before going back to eating his waffles.<br>
<br>
<br>
"How long has this, " Steve made a gesture at Loki "been going on?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony grabbed another cup of coffee. "About a year and a half."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony, seriously? And you didn't think to, I dunno, tell us at all?" And Steve's face was a mix of disappointment and bafflement.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thor chimed in, cutting off Steve. "I for one believe this to be a joyous occasion! Loki has not caused trouble since seeing the man of Iron. He truly has tamed Loki's madness."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony tensed. Thor always said the right things to get under Loki's skin.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I didn't tame anyone. Loki does what he wants." Tony stated, doing damage control.<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 1:57:56 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (sorry bout that, computer decided to restart after a scan)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:07:09 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I have no caused trouble because I've grown bored with you." Loki snapped, his eyes cold flints of ice. "Do not presume to know me, Odinson."<br>
<br>
<br>
"But I have known you since birth." Thor had the audacity to look slightly hurt. Loki scoffed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Are you blind as well as stupid? The form I took last night was not an illusion. I am not your brother, but a pawn in Odin's political game with the Jotun."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Our father raised you as his son. Our mother and father loved you no less than they loved me."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki's expression twisted and stood. Without saying another word he strode out of the commonroom and disapeared.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:07:35 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (he's not feeling well and doesn't want to puke infront of everyone)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:19:23 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony put a hand on Thor's shoulder. "Don't let it get to you big guy, Loki loves to say things he doesn't mean."<br>
<br>
<br>
Thor relaxed a little, finished his waffles and ended up having an interesting conversation with Natasha about midgard weaponry.<br>
<br>
<br>
Out of everyone Tony was the most surprised at how well Clint dealt with Loki being a permanent member of the Stark household. Considering Clint had been under mind control by Loki before, Tony had figured there would be more resentment. Instead, Clint seemed more bothered at Loki's audacity to eat pickles on his waffles. I guess when you're  a spy you just have to learn to move on and let go.<br>
<br>
<br>
Steve left the kitchen after eating, but made sure to fix Tony with a look that said 'we are not done with this'. Tony filed that look away in his mind with the other annoying looks Steve saved just for him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony headed to the bedroom, hopefully Loki was there. If not, Tony needed to change anyway, he still had papers to sign with Pepper.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony." Natasha was catching up quickly behind the man. Her expression unreadable as always. "I have something I need to talk to you about."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:25:13 AM] Tanya Stark: (That doll  O.o )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:25:31 AM] Loki Laufeyson: ( xD  isn't it great? in a horrible way)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:30:36 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony looked up at Natasha. Fuck, why was this whole team taller than him? "I can spare a moment, as long as it's not about feelings or lying to me and saying everything will be ok. You know I hate that crap." Tony's phone beeped in his pocket. A text from Banner, because he was to much of a coward to leave his room a second time. Tony seriously wondered how such a shy and meek person survived as an Avenger.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2<img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon3-closedeyecatsmile.23712/full?d=1488656846" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":33:" title="cat face smile closed eyes    :33:" data-shortname=":33:">06 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "What you do is your business." she said curtly, "I'm not going to pretend to understand alien physiology, but is Loki pregnant?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Her eyes narrowed curiously, but she didn't seem angry, or even disgusted. But then with Natasha it was difficult to even begin to guess how she truely felt about anything.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:48:46 AM] Tanya Stark: "Wha...what? How did you..?" And Tony was at a loss for words. How on Earth did she figure that out so fast? Tony hadn't even known until recently. "Natasha, your skills are underappreciated. However much they pay you it's not enough." Well, that was Tony's last big secret, and the petite assassin had got it out of him.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:49:42 AM] Tanya Stark: (Skype is being stupid and not informing me when i get a message. Lame)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 2:52:42 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I'm a woman. It's almost instinctive, though the others haven't figured it out. Probably won't unless you want them to know." she quirked an eyebrow, "Tell Loki that he can come to me if he needs anything. I know a thing or two about maternity."<br>
<br>
<br>
And with that she spun on her heel and began walking away.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm surprised she didn't catch on to our arrangement sooner." Loki sounded almost mildly impressed as he appeared at Tony's shoulder. He had cleaned himself up, slicking his hair back and donning his usual outfit.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 3:01:15 AM] Tanya Stark: Tony jumped slightly. Loki was way to good at sneaking up on him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"She's clever, but your on a whole different level. You probably could have pulled it off if it wasn't for me." Tony sucked at secrets, hell, he kept being Iron Man a secret for all of two seconds from the media. It was hard to keep secrets when you loved the attention and shock your actions caused. Tony still couldn't believe they went over a year of dating without himself spilling the secret.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony turned around to face Loki, studying him. "How are you feeling? Need anything? I'm a billionaire you know, I can get you anything you need." Tony needed to start preparations for a baby. God, that was still hard to believe. He was going to be a dad.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 3:04:19 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki smiled gently leaning in to give the man a peck on the cheek.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I have to admit I do not know the first thing about children and what they require." he looked thoughtful for a moment, "I may take the assasin up on her offer. But for now I would like to speak to Banner. He is well versed in human medicine, yes?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 3:13:03 AM | Edited 3:13:42 AM] Tanya Stark: Ugh. Not Banner. Anyone but Banner. While Tony did get along with him, and it was nice to talk with someone who was an intellectual equal, Bruce's social anxiety and elusive nature was to much of a contrast to Tony's boisterous personality for them to truly click. Not to mention, it was very obvious Bruce was avoiding Loki at all costs.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yes, he is, but he can also turn into a giant monster when stressed and hurt people. You know, I kind of like you and our future child, and not torn to pieces. "Tony knew it was an effort in futility to try and change Loki's mind when he set it to a task. Plus Loki was kissing him and being all adorable and that wasn't fair. It was setting a bad precedent for Loki to always get his way.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok ok! Fine. But let me talk to Bruce first."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/22/2015 3:17:09 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki's smile turned into a grin and he rewarded Tony with another kiss, this one a little longer than the last.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If it is so easy for me to manipulate you, how do you plan to defend yourself against our child?" if Loki was given his way, and he would whether Tony agreed or not, their son or daughter would quickly develop a silver tongue. After all, there would be little fun to be had if they bumbled through conversation.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I will fetch my notes and meet you there."<br>
<br>
<br>
Bruce was exactly where Tony expected him to be, huddled in his lab looking over some notes. Who still wrote on paper in this day and age? Steve did, but he didn't count.<br>
<br>
<br>
Bruce looked up at Tony, gave him a curt nod, then went back to his notes. Tony wasn't sure what to say, so he just fiddled with Bruces computer, looking at some specs, until Loki came in.<br>
<br>
<br>
It take long for Banner to noticed and when he did he looked about ready to have a heart attack.<br>
<br>
<br>
"W-what are you doing here?" he looked at Tony, "What is he doing here? You know I c-can't do this!"<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki looked at Tony, one brow raised, "I thought you were going to warn him." then back to Banner, "I wish to discuss human medicine. As you know Tony is dying and I am trying to find a way to prevent this."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:25:05 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I promise to be on my best behavior."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:38:27 AM] Tanya Stark: "Calm down Bruce, he just wants to talk. I'll be here the whole time-going through your computer of course because I'm sure this will be a lively conversation between you two." Tony says sarcastically. The heart rate monitor on Bruce's wrist beeps a few times before he collects himself, nervously getting up and approaching Tony and Loki. Bruce manages to make himself look like the smallest person in the room, which is impressive, because Tony was gifted the height of a middle school girl. Tony places a hand on Loki's lower back and gently nudges him forward. "Play nice." Is all Tony says before going back to the computer and rummaging through Banners work.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:39:05 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (Tony you're horrible!  xD )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:39:20 AM] Tanya Stark: (Im a terrible person)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:45:58 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Ignoring Tony Loki settled himself into a chair and pulled out a tablet he had stolen from Tony's lab. Touching a few buttons he quickly pulled up his notes and diagrams into the air. Shifting through them with Tony's casual ease he wasted no time in delving into what he learned thus far and some theories he had.<br>
<br>
<br>
At first Bruce gave minimal answers, shrinking back into his chair each time Loki met his eye. True to his word Loki kept his antagonizing commentary to himself and very patiently pried the information he needed from Bruce's mind. Slowly the radiologist seemingly became more comfortable and the discussion began to flow much more smoothly. Occasional Loki typed something down or edited his notes or diagrams.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hours passed and dinner time rolled around, but their discussion surprisingly did not end and they continued on as they made their way to the commonroom, with Tony between them of course.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:46:59 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Considering just how thorough Loki was it was beginning to seem more likely that he would actually be able to find an answer.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:57:05 AM] Tanya Stark: And that was all it took for Tony to suddenly become really Jealous. True, he wanted the team to like Loki, but he also liked Loki being only his. Banner was starting to smile at Loki, Loki made a joke and they both laughed. Fuck, who said they could be buddies? Tony hid his unwarranted jealousy deep down inside and tried not to glare at Banner. Loki looked over at him, raising an eyebrow.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was amazing how well Loki was at socializing when it benefited him, he managed to get Banner completely comfortable around him in no time. Tony couldn't believe how childish he felt. It was like having to share your favorite toy. Tony never liked sharing.<br>
<br>

[7/23/2015 3:04:20 AM] Tanya Stark: ( xD )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 3:10:41 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki knew that Tony was getting jealous. It was refreshing to have him on the recieving end for once. And he wasn't even flirting with Banner. All the same they continued through dinner.<br>
<br>
<br>
Occasionaly Loki would give Tony an opening to join them, but he declined each time. Finally around eleven Loki thanked Banner for his insight, even though he was much closer to finding an answer, it was a start. And he was pleased with how well his own notes had held up against the doctor.<br>
<br>
<br>
As the common room emptied once more Loki sparwled himself out on one of the couches.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Am I to be grounded now?" he asked, a hint of amusement coloring his tone, "Perhaps I am no longer allowed to visit Banner?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 3:21:23 AM] Tanya Stark: "I don't know what your talking about." Tony lied. Playing dumb never worked, but he never stopped trying it anyway. "You know, Bruce maybe a scientist, but he has the social grace of a Chihuahua. All tremble-y and small. And weird. Yeah, we keep him on the team out of pity." Tony would have felt bad about trash talking Bruce if he didn't feel like his territory was being trampled on.  Tony went over to the couch and moved Loki's legs so he could sit, letting Loki's legs fall on his lap. "Did you at least get all the information you needed?" He said, deflecting. Tony started to give Loki a foot rub. Banner probably sucked at foot rubs.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 3:23:13 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (Oh my god, Tony you stupid baby  xD , I'm going to get some sleep so I'll actually be able to wake up tomorrow, nighty night  <img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon1-smile.23674/full?d=1488654843" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="smile    :)" data-shortname=":)"><br>

<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 2:53:52 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Well if this is to be my punishment then I do believe I'll talk to Banner more often." Loki smiled fondly and flexed his toes. So long as he kept his jealousy at this level he didn't think he would mind doing this more often. Perhaps he would make a game out of it.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 3:01:34 PM] ***  ***<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 9:32:12 PM] Loki Laufeyson: bonjour<br>

<br>
<br>
<br>
[/media]<br>
[7/23/2015 9:52:58 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony hummed in response. He was going to miss this, being with Loki, seeing him smile. He hadn't give up hope, but he wasn't going to waste his last few weeks alive thinking there was always going to be a tomorrow. What hurt the most, was the very real possibility he would never meet his child, never see them grow up, be there with Loki for all the special moments. It made Tony's heart ache. Shaking the thoughts from his mind, Tony allowed himself to relax, turning on the tv and watching one of Loki's favorite shows while he finished giving him a foot rub. "We're going shopping tomorrow." Tony stated, growing sleepy. "Baby stuff. Got to get everything we need, so make a list or something." Tony figured the best way to tell the team about the news was the direct way, with a shopping haul of baby items.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 9:58:48 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "So is that how we're going to tell the others?" Loki asked as he shifted to snuggle into Tony's side. He wasn't so affectionate often, but he figured once wouldn't hurt.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I think the news of our courting was shocking enough."<br>
<br>
<br>
It was actually funny how shocked they had been. Tony was the only one who had really tried to keep the secret, which went to show just how stupid the team could be.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony put an arm around Loki and let him settle his head in the crook of Tony's neck. Cuddling was rare, but not for lack of trying on Tony's part. Loki was just prickly sometimes. The rest of the night went on with Loki making his usual commentary on strange midgardian customes as they watched tv. Tony was starting to think reality tv was a terrible thing to introduce Loki to. He took far to much glee in watching 'pathetic mortals' fight. Right now bridezillas was on and a fist fight was breaking out, much to Loki's  Amusement. When they went to bed Tony fell asleep instantly, with Loki at his side and the low hum of his arc reactor for white noise.<br>

[7/23/2015 10:13:46 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Why do humans feel the need to gender everything?" Loki eyed a guady looking onsie that proudly declared that it belonged to a lady's man.<br>
<br>
<br>
They had been browsing the aisles of a babies r us and if Tony thought Loki was finicky before... the god had only a few onsies that he seemed satisfied with.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You wonder why your world is steeped in chaos yet you worry yourselves with such trivial things."<br>

<br>
[7/23/2015 10:31:26 PM] Tanya Stark: "What about this one!" Tony declared, grabbing a cute onesie off the rack. It had a picture of the Avengers on it with the caption 'future crime fighter' emblazoned on the front. "It's perfect we are getting it. Oh! What's this?" And Tony was back to being distracted. Tony briefly wondered if there was any tech he could build for a baby. Like a crib with built in video feed. And twitter. Tony stopped in the middle of the next isle, not even sure what he was looking at. "Does a baby really need all this crap? Shoes? Really, for a newborn?"<br>
<br>

<br>
[7/23/2015 10:42:16 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "I'm glad we agree." Loki hummed, leaning on the cart. He looked up as a young worker all but bounced up to them and nudged Tony gently.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey! Is there anything I can help you guys with?" she was cheerful and bubbly even though they had obviously been there for a while. The fact that they were both men didn't seem to faze her in the least.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/23/2015 10:52:30 PM] Tanya Stark: "Yes! We need baby merch. All the necessities. My partner and I are adopting." Tony got on his tip toes and gave Loki a kiss on the cheek, making a big show of it. Loki was always annoyed by Tony's ' public persona'. He always acted all showy and fake. Tony however, loved it. It was fun and felt like acting. He was an entertainer by heart.<br>

<br>
[7/23/2015 11:16:43 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Wonderful!" she beamed and then motioned for them to follow her. Loki cast Tony a dark look, promising that he would not enjoy the aftermath of what was to come. All the same he went through the motions and picked through the neccesities with the tastes of a prince.<br>
<br>
<br>
Eventually he warmed up to the girl enough to debate what was truely needed and what was simply too adorable to pass up. At one point the conversation turned to their relationship.<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki glanced at Tony, a dangerous quirk of his lips was the only warning he had.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And what about you? Surely such a lovely woman has someone on their arm."<br>
<br>
<br>
The saleswoman, Nicki according to her name tag, giggled and shrugged,<br>
<br>
<br>
"Not for a while now." she blushed lightly, "There is someone though. I don't know if she feels the same about me though..."<br>
<br>
<br>
"She would be a fool if she didn't." Loki smiled warmly, brushing a lock of Nicki's hair out of her face.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony bristled, stepping between them. "Hey, what does this do?" Tony said, grabbing a random machine.<br>
<br>
<br>
Nicki looked over at him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"That is a breast pump."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Terrifying." Tony said putting it immediately back where he found it.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ok Loki, let's buy what we got in the cart and go to the next store." Tony was all ready on his phone doing some online shopping.<br>

<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 12:37:46 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "Is something that matter, darling?" Loki's tone was honey sweet but his eyes sparkled. "Unless you want to go to a general store we'd have quite a drive."<br>
<br>
<br>
Nicki looked between the two, confused at first and the knowingly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If there's anything else you need just let one of my coworkers know." she smiled apologetically before taking her leave.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You're adorable, Anthony."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 12:43:42 AM] Tanya Stark: "I am not adorable, I am ironman." Tony put his phone away and started heading over to the strollers, his hand on the small of Loki's back. "I bet I could make a stroller that goes way faster." Tony said more to himself than Loki. "Hook up JARVIS to it also." Everything of his was basically hooked up to JARVIS, Tony didn't over analyze it too much, he worried when he did so he just ignored those thoughts all together.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 12:45:37 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (Do you have 8tracks?)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 4:36:50 PM] Tanya Stark: They shopped for another hour before Tony couldn't take it anymore and might actually die of boredom. Loki spent most of the shopping time insulting midgardian child rearing anyway, which had made the trip amusing at least. They got home late and Tony had his driver unload all the shopping bags, refusing to let Loki help. They were chilling on the couch, Loki in a tight tunic style shirt, when he noticed it.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You're starting to show." Tony mused, splaying a hand over Loki's stomach.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 4:41:55 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "You mean I'm getting fat?" Loki smirked, covering Tony's hand with His own. He wasn't necessarily sure how to feel or even react should anyone ask him. But not for the first time he was glad Tony was the one and not anyone else. Anyone else would have left long ago.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 4:47:14 PM] Tanya Stark: "I prefer the term 'pleasantly plump'." Tony kept his hand there. He was feeling an immense amount of joy, the thought of having a child that was a perfect blend of him and Loki sent a feeling of joy through Tony. "I bet the baby will have your brilliant green eyes." Tony wanted nothing more than to be there for that moment, hold his child for the first time<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 4:55:04 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki slapped Tony across the face, just hard enough to move his head but not enough to actually hurt. He laughed,<br>
<br>
<br>
"And he will no doubt posses your charm."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:05:41 PM] Tanya Stark: "Note to self: never call you plump"<br>
<br>
<br>
"Sir," JARVIS. Broke through the silence. "There appears to be a hostel force outside the mansion. Scanning indicates they are agents of shield."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Fuck" Tony was not ready to deal with this.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stay here Loki, I'm getting my suit." And with that Tony ran to the lower level.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:18:04 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "Stay here with the fragile Prince." Loki rolled his eyes and stood, "Jarvis, show me the video feeds of Shield."<br>
<br>
<br>
He looked over the meager attempt at intimidation and scoffed. Then he was Tony's side.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I hardly need to be watched." he retoreted indignantly. "In fact you're the one to be worried about."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:24:11 PM | Edited 5:24:36 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony huffed. "Stop endangering our child, i'm just going to talk with them." But even Tony knew that wasnt entirely true, as he finished suiting up.<br>
<br>
<br>
"JARVIS, call fury." He said into his helmet. Walking out the front door, Tony put his metal arms up as a peace offering. "You don't want to do this guys, I'm sure you've heard a million times about my recklessness in battle and defiance of authority, you don't want to deal with that."<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony heard Fury's voice over the comms in his helmet.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stark, your harboring a known enemy of shield. Stand down and hand Loki over to us."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Can't do and you know that. Don't make me hurt your agents."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stark-"<br>
<br>
<br>
"Fury cut the bullshit NOW." and hm, Tony was getting real pissed now.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:26:56 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki strode forward, standing next to Tony with his head held high.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I am no one's to hand over. If you want me, convince me."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:37:59 PM] Tanya Stark: "Loki seriously, you could get hurt." Tony instinctively put himself in front of Loki and the line of agents.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stark-" Fury started, but Tony was in no mood for his shit. His child was in danger now, fun time was over.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Fury, Loki is a prince of Asgard, wielder of magic and PREGNANT WITH MY CHILD. So unless you want an international incident with Asgard, STAND DOWN."<br>
<br>
<br>
For the first time since Tony had known him Fury seemed out of words. After what felt like an eternity of static, fury responded.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Stand down men. Tony, we will discuss this later." And with that the agents dispensed, putting Tony at ease as well.<br>
<br>
<br>
"What did I miss?" Banner said, appearing out of nowhere. He looked on edge and about to hulk out.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Calm down Bruce, we were just having a friendly chat."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:40:25 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki looked at Tony incredulously. Of all the things he expected that was not one of them.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I suppose that is one way to deter them." He looked at Banner, "Though I could have done better."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:47:17 PM] Tanya Stark: Hawkeye came out of the front door, bow at his side. "Everything ok Tony?" And god, Tony was relieved to have him on his side and not SHIELDs. Tony took his helmet off, watching the agents leave. "How much did you hear?"<br>
<br>
<br>
"All of it. Congratulations." Was Clints reply.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Um, I am missing something here." Banner said, strolling up to the group.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony did not want to deal with this, and headed back inside to remove his suit.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Coming Lokes?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 5:55:59 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "If you tell Fury you tell them all." Loki looked at Barton, "Gather your team. We have some news to give."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Tony." Loki had followed the man to his lab. Everything was falling to pieces. Their carefully kept secrets were unravelling and he could see the toll it was taking on the man. "Everything will work out." he murmured, kissing the nape of his neck.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 6:06:35 PM] Tanya Stark: "I just.... i miss...us" And Tony made a waving motion at Loki's body. "I don't want shield in this, I dont want the others. I just...I'm dying Loki, every minute counts. I want to spend them all with you. I know Thor went to asgard to look for help, but we are not sure there will be a cure. I'm pissed. Pissed I might miss all these moments with you." And Tony hated this, hated seeing Loki get sad, hated seeing the team give him pitying looks. "I can't protect you when i'm gone."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 6:08:29 PM] Tanya Stark: <a href="http://www.cracked.com/article_18957_the-8-most-awkward-sexual-moments-in-comic-book-history_p2.html" target="_blank" class="link link--external" data-proxy-href="/proxy.php?link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cracked.com%2Farticle_18957_the-8-most-awkward-sexual-moments-in-comic-book-history_p2.html&amp;hash=7d14c9c8574fd5c6ce9c741219ad3f85" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">http://www.cracked.com/article_18957_the-8-most-awkward-sexual-moments-in-comic-book-history_p2.html</a><br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 8:06:34 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "You are not going anywhere." Loki turned him around firmly and pulled him into a hug. "You will not die.you will see our child and you will be there when they grow up. Don't give up on me. Please."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 8:13:17 PM] Tanya Stark: "I know. Christ, I know." Tony said, returning the hug. It was nice, these moments, just him and Loki.<br>
<br>
<br>
He hoped to god that Thor came back with good news, or Loki's searches bared fruit. He wanted to stay like this, forever. With a heavy sigh, Tony let go of the embrace. "Let's go to bed, we probably won't get much sleep anyway with you getting up to puke. Don't get me wrong, your sexy no matter what you do." Tony laughed under his breadth.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 10:50:36 PM] Tanya Stark: Herp de derp<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 10:50:53 PM] Tanya Stark: Fuck a goldfish<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 10:57:07 PM] Tanya Stark: Elmo was here<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/24/2015 11:01:05 PM] Loki Laufeyson: "No one gives a fuck bout Elmo." Loki glared with half lidded eyes.<br>
<br>
<br>
The next day was hell just like Tony predicted. Loki had kept him up all night with his puking, so Tony tried to be productive and work in his shop, however, he ended up falling asleep at his desk, face planted on the keyboard. An angry meeting with Fury was his wake up call, where Tony had to explain how he managed to knock up a wanted criminal. Tony of course was a sarcastic sleep deprived ass, driving Fury up a fucking wall. Fury's hands were tied on the matter anyway, and Tony knew it. No one wanted to create an incident with Asgard, so Tony got off with a warning and a stern scolding. Maybe it was because he was dying. Tony would have to use that to his advantage more often. The only one not pissed or disappointed was Thor, who gave him a big hug and congratulated him, demanding they all hold a celebration. Tony refused, much to Thor's displeasure. Loki would probably throw a fit over a party. Especially one Thor organized.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony went straight home and collapsed on the couch. He was feeling exhausted, more than usual. It was like every little effort was a big expenditure of energy.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Your heart is working harder than usual do to your condition, causing fatigue." JARVIS informed him when asked.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Great. Just what I need right now, the energy of a 90 year old man. How sexy."  Tony frowned at the ceiling.<br>
<br>
<br>
As though summoned, and he probably had been by Jarvis, Loki appeared in front of Tony. A worried expression tightening his face.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You have officially retired, Anthony." he said, placing a hand over Tony's heart. He felt it slow to an almost sluggish pace, his muscles relaxing until he became sleepy.<br>
<br>
<br>
With a fluid ease Loki lifted him into his arms bridal style, nudging his head so he was nestled into the crook of his head.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And this is only for today."<br>
<br>
<br>
They were in the bathroom. The one Tony usually reserved for special guests. The oversized bathtub was already filled, mountains of bubbles scented the air. Loki said nothing more as he set Tony down and began undressing him.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:20:05 PM] Tanya Stark: (Cute a bubble bath!)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:20:25 PM] Loki Laufeyson: (I figured Tony would need one)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:32:25 PM] Tanya Stark: "Ironman does not retire. The Avengers would be at least 70% less cool without me. I know so, I had JARVIS do the math." Tony hummed, he couldn't remember the last time he had a bubble bath, hell, had he ever had one? Maybe with some random supermodels in a drunken haze. He must have had a reason to even own bubble bath soap. Tony would have protested being treated like a frail maiden more if he wasn't so exhausted. The bath was wonderful, Loki stayed in the room reading a book he got out of thin air, and Tony couldn't help but work on some specs with his phone while he relaxed, bouncing ideas off of Loki every few minutes.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Do you think the baby will have your green eyes or my brown ones? I hope they get your eyes."<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:39:51 PM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki hummed softly, "I'm sure they'll have my eyes. The human blood will be most prominite."<br>
<br>
<br>
He looked up, the book disapearing again. Standing he dropped his trousers and sliped of his tunic. With his shirt gone the baby bump was more prominite. Loki seemed to notice as well as he put a hand over it as he stepped into the tub.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you do not mind, I would like to try something." Loki glanced at Tony's arc reactor and then back up. It stung knowing that the very thing that was meant to keep him alive was failing. For the briefest of moments Loki wondered if he would fail as well...<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:52:00 PM] Loki Laufeyson: boop<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:57:32 PM] Tanya Stark: (Sorry was in shower, but im back!)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:57:48 PM] Loki Laufeyson: (no worries, I have an idea for a new fiction)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:57:52 PM] Loki Laufeyson: (omega verse)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/26/2015 11:58:03 PM] Tanya Stark: (Ooooh!)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:05:51 AM] Tanya Stark: "Im all yours." Tony smirked, moving next to Loki in the large tub. Tony's arc reactor was reflecting blue light across the water, creating a beautiful light show in the dim lighting of the bathroom. Tony placed his right hand on Loki's stomach. "We should get an ultrasound soon, maybe we can even find out the gender." Tony paused. "Do you know what that is? Does Asgard have some fancy magic version of an ultrasound ?"<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:13:48 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki smiled and nodded, "I've done enough research on Midgardian medicine to know."<br>
<br>
<br>
Shifting to straddle Tony's hips Loki settled back on his heels, "I am sure Natasha would enjoy seeing the print offs." long fingers slid over Tony's chest, circling around the arc reactor. A tingling sensation moved through his chest. Loki's eyes became more focused as he leaned closer.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony felt something tug deep inside him, then it squirmed. Like a worm wriggling through his flesh. Fingers massaged the spot, easing the unpleasant feeling. Loki frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:24:20 AM] Tanya Stark: "I like foreplay as much as the next guy, but this feels...bizarre." Tony said under his breath. Loki, however, looked fucking gorgeous on top of him. His hair was falling in his face, jet black against his porcelain skin. And those green eyes. Just fucking beautiful. Tony could look at them for hours. "What...are you trying to do?" Tony said, snapping back to reality<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:24:58 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (not foreplay &gt;w&gt;)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:25:04 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (but it can be if you want)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:30:29 AM | Edited 12:35:16 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I had hoped to pull the shrapnel back. It seems that they have become tangled in some blood vessels." Loki huffed almost indignantly. "Honestly you are an arrogant fool for not preparing yourself better."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki pursed his lips indignantly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You are lucky to have me here, you know." his fingers moved up to knead into Tony's shoulders, working out the knots.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:47:57 AM] Tanya Stark: "Yeah, I get told i'm arrogant a lot. And reckless. And an ass." Tony added, "but also dashingly good looking and rich. That usually makes up for it." Tony lowered his hands and placed them on the small of Loki's back, holding him in place. "You look amazing, pregnant or not. It's not fair to us mere mortals. You don't even try and you are the best looking one in a crowd." Tony purred into Loki's ear, enjoying Loki's hands on his shoulders.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:59:21 AM] Loki Laufeyson: "I am a god." Loki leaned forward, nibbling Tony's jaw, "Of course I stand out."<br>
<br>
<br>
Loki rolled his hips forward, pressing himself even closer. Their lips met, parting to allow their tongues to push against the other, fighting for dominance. Loki moaned and ground his hips into Tony's.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 1:04:07 AM] Loki Laufeyson: (I got markiplier in the background to set the mood  xD )<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 11:18:13 AM] Tanya Stark: (So sorry i literally fell asleep with the phone in my hand)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 12:22:02 PM] Loki Laufeyson: (Aww, I figured you would be pretty tired after partying all day)<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 1:08:46 PM] Tanya Stark: Tony's fingers dug into Loki's hips as he kissed him, water splashing between them. Tony briefly wondered why they hadn't fucked in the tub before, it was one of the few places in the house they hadn't. Tony would never tell the team about the time him and Loki did it on the kitchen table, they would probably never eat at the house again.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony snapped his attention back to Loki, kissing a trail down his neck while his hands pushed Loki flush against him. Tony put his right hand between them, grabbing both there erections in his hand and moving up and down with the sway of there hips. The water was deliciously slick against them and Tony was panting into Loki's ear. Fuck, he would never get used to how beautiful Loki looked when he was completely undone, and he was all Tony's, no one else's. No one else would ever see how fucking perfect Loki looked like this.<br>
<br>
<br>
[7/27/2015 1:27:10 PM] Tanya Stark: (Reading the saddest stony ever)<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
[7/28/2015 1:51:32 AM] Loki Laufeyson: Loki threw his head back and groaned with no thought for any who might hear. He was alone with Tony in a world of bliss. His body was on fire. Electricty singed his skin.<br>
<br>
<br>
His hips jerked, it was almost too much. He leaned forward again, his teeth sinking into Tony's shoulder. It would leave a bruise and he didn't care. They all knew anyway. Lapping his tongue over the bite marks he lifted himself up and slid back down on Tony's cock.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tony loved it when Loki bit him, hard and unforgiving. It was the right kind of feeling, right on the precipice of pleasure and pain. He didn't have much time to think of it though when Loki slid down on his cock and rode him. Fuck, it felt so good and Tony gripped Loki's hips as he moved. Once they had a rhythm going Tony traced circles across Loki's back with his fingers. Loki's skin was so sensitive and Tony loved the gasping sounds Loki made when he touched him. Tony kept tracing on Loki's back while he thrust his hips, knowing at this rate he wasn't going to last much longer. Tony tilted his head and kissed Loki, a filthy, deep kiss on his icy lips. Drops of water were falling down Loki's face from his hair, and Tony licked one of the water drops playfully.</div>
