Loki: Smart Ass of the Year

by God of Mishief

Loki gets let out of prison, and Thor insists he make friends with the Avengers. Not Thor's best idea, but much fun and drama is made apparent. With visits from angry exes, back-story finally explained, Loki getting a cat, some fire-demon rebels, angsty-angst in later chapters, and Tony having enough sass to fuel the world, it's an adventure.

This is just something I'm working on in my spare time. Forgive me for my obsession with these people. Disclaimer: Nothing is mine, though I would love for Loki to be.

Over all, the week had been a good one. Loki had been released from Asgardian prison, given back full use of his magic, and rekindled Thor and his confussing, wholly satisfying, ancient relationship.

It was just too bad Thor insisted on taking the "new" Loki down to see those hostile Avengers. Honestly, he had known his (not) brother was stubborn and sometimes dull, but this was beyond even Loki's lowest expectations. Still, he agreed, and that was how he and Thor ended up crash landing into the middle of a very expensive resteraunt, interrupting a proposal.

"I've seen bigger," Loki rolled his eyes at the meager stone set in precious metal. Thor merely begged forgiveness before dragging the God of Mischief out of the injured building and flew off to Stark Tower.

"You have got to be kidding me," Tony rolled his eyes. "This guy is free? Isn't it bad enough we had to clean up the mess with Thanos last year?"

"I helped," Loki shrugged. He had in fact helped, even from his prison. He was granted controlled power back temporarily so his adopted brother wouldn't be destroyed molecule by molecule. The All-Father, always so generous.

"My brother is a new man, I assure you," Thor announced, leaving no room in his tone for question. Except he was dealing with runner up of the Smart Ass of the year contest, Tony Stark. The only one to ever beat him was a god, so it's fair to say, he ignored Thor's tone.

"I didn't realize 'paying for your crimes' in a holding cell constituted ashelping." Tony smirked.

"If you think your suit just booted back up because of your will power just in time for you to save the world again, you are truly another mortal idiot."

Tony looked Loki over closely. "If you weren't such an arrogant pest who caused me more paper work, I would like you."

"If you didn't use a Hulk to smash me into pavement then blame me when you have to deal with the repercussions, you would still be beneath me."

That's Loki, ever the charmer.

"Well come in then. Fury will be SO excited to see you."
