"So, that, Tony, is why we've assigned Loki into your custody." Fury announced as he sat in his chair. The screen flickered slightly.

There was a snicker in the back, obviously from Clint. Tony turned and shot him a dirty look.
"You cannot be serious?" Tony said in disbelief, staring at Fury on the big screen in the living room. He shook his head slowly. "Ship him off to Asgard, Fury, I don't want him!"
"You don't have a choice in the matter, Tony." Fury replied. "Odin saw how Thor changed after several months here, so he thinks Loki might do a big 360 into the light and out of darkness." He gave him the complain-and-ill-ship-you look, and the sentence Tony was going to say died on his lips.
"Goddammit." Tony said instead. There was nothing else to say, really, except some kind of term that could express how Tony was feeling right now.
Fury gave the team what Tony thought to be reminiscent of a pitying smile. He didn't think that Fury was capable of such a feat, but the man was full of surprises. "He's coming in tomorrow, so you have all day to prepare."
Thor grinned widely. "I'm sure that my brother will enjoy his stay." He took another bite of pancakes.
"Question." Tony turned back to Fury. "Is magic included in the package?"
Fury shook his head. "Nope, he's stripped of his powers. He's a regular mortal now and he isn't pretty happy about that." He nodded. "Good luck." The screen shut off.
"This is not a good way to start the day, at all." Tony fumed. "I'm a CEO, not a babysitter!"
Steve cleared his throat. "I'm sure it won't be that bad, Tony." He took a sip from his glass of water.
"Have you seen the man? He's like a twig!" Clint laughed between bites of breakfast.
Thor shook his head. "He may look thin, but Asgardiams are stronger than humans, Barton. Don't think lightly of my brother."
Tony smiled dryly. "I volunteer Barton to go tell Pepper." He sat down at the table.
"I second that." Natasha voiced from the kitchen. She came out of the kitchen. "Thor, when everyone's finished, can you bring the dishes and put then in the dishwasher?"
"Sure!" Thor nodded.
"Wait, what?" Barton stopped mod chew. "Aren't you her boyfriend?"
Tony shrugged. "We're not exactly on speaking terms after I nearly blew up her office last week." He picked up a plate of fresh pancakes. "Come on, buddy, we'll go apologize together! And break the news to her at the same time!"
Barton stood up. "But I don't have anything to apologize for!"
Tony gave him an incredulous look. "Shall I remind you of when you shot one your 'Cupid arrows' into her arm? I don't think you want that."
Barton flinched slightly. "I really need to get leverage on you, Stark." He sighed and followed after Tony.
"So says one of SHIELD's best spies," Natasha shook her head.
