Thor looked at the strange piece of Midgardian technology in his hands then looked at the captain, who looked equally as confused, for help.

"Maybe this button turns it on." Steve pressed the only button he could see. The screen lit up, as did Thor's face. Steve grinned. Thor spoke up.

"How do I use it?" he asked. Steve shook his head.

"I have absolutely no clue." Tony popped his head in.

"It's a touchscreen. You touch the icons on the screen to get what you want. Like this." He walked over and opened the contacts file. Thor smiled and looked at the faces of his friends.

"So I touch the screen to get what I want? Well, I want Jane." he said and he touched the picture of her face. He frowned when she didn't appear in front of him.

"Where is she Man of Iron?" He frowned. Tony laughed then held up the phone as Loki slipped into the room. Jane's voice rang out from the box.

"Hello? Who's this?" she sing-songed distractedly. Thor beamed enthusiastically at the sound of her voice then frowned at the box with worry.

"Darling Jane, how are you trapped in this little box? This is some kind of witchcraft." He turned to an unwitting Loki full of rage and tackles him.

"Thor what in the name of the Allfather are you doing?!" Loki choked as Thor started strangling him, seemingly enraged at something that Loki had supposedly done. Tony and Steve rushed to pull them apart and Loki was panting for air as Thor raged on to him holding up the phone.

"Why did you trap my beloved Jane Foster in this small box? Undo this blasted curse at once brother!" he boomed. Loki scowled at the last word.

"You are more of an idiot than even I thought. My magic was taken away in case you had forgotten. You are holding a cell phone, it is a device that allows you to speak to someone else no matter how far away as long as they have such a device with them and you dial a special number. I have one of my own."

"Thor, he's right, I'm not trapped in a box, I'm still in New Mexico with Darcy and Erik. But I'm glad you called, I have great news. We are all going to be joining you at the tower next week. Our flight gets in on Wednesday." Jane's voice crackled out of the phone.

"Well I have to get back to work, it was great to hear from you Thor. See you next week!" and with that she hung up. Thor beamed.

"My Jane is coming to join me soon with Erik Selvig and Lady Darcy! Oh I do hope she leaves her taser at home. I do not wish to be rendered unconscious by her again." Loki's ear pricked up at the sound of that. He was about to ask more about it when Tony Stark interrupted him.

"Hey, Thor, how's about I teach you how to text now that you can call people so well?" He smiled and rubbed his hands together.

"What is a text?" Thor asked, Loki raised an eyebrow and Tony chuckled.

"You'll see."

Loki lay on his bed reading a book on Norse Mythology. It was laughable how wrong these mortals got the stories. Especially when it came to Loki and his children. He had no wife, or children, let alone children that were deformed animals. Even if he did have animal children someday, he'd never let Odin ride any into battle. He had finally closed the book in frustration when his cell phone rang out. He looked at the new message. It was from Thor. It would seem that Stark had finally managed to teach him after 8 hours of frustration and agony. He read it.

BROTHER! Man of Iron has taut me how to text. I know can converse on the phone by speaking and reading. I wonder if I can get one of these phones to mother and father on Ass guard. I shall ask He install.

Loki chuckled and his phone went off again.

Curses. I did not mean to writ those words. I meant to say He install.

He install.

He install.

Why do these accursed floating words desire to correct me?

Loki laughed harder. Stark had forgotten to teach Thor about autocorrect, and he was loving it.

Why won't they stop? D,;

Loki groaned. But Stark did teach him about emoticons.
