"YOU WAKE UP THIS INSTANT YOU SACK OF POTATOES! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME YOU ASSHOLE! YOU WAKE UP RIGHT NOW AND CHANGE MY BUNNY BACK! NEON PINK? WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING? OH MY GOD WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN! OH MY GOD YOU ARE A DEAD MAN, LOKI LAUFEYSON!"
Loki groaned as he rolled over in his bed, having taken up a room in the hotel to get away from the sounds of the scientists working. Callie's angry voice filled his head and her anger had pressed in to his mind so much his hands had curled in to fists, green sparks rolling over his skin as his magic reacted to the pure emotion.
He thought waking up to her presence in his mind would be a nice way to wake up, but he had clearly underestimated how annoyed she would be at him. He grinned as he rolled back over on to his back and placed his hands behind his head, smirking up at the light blue roof. It had felt good to revert back in to his pranking ways, taking him back to the days were the only worry he had was trying to get Lady Sif to notice him instead of his older brother.
"I CAN TELL YOU ARE AWAKE, YOUR SMUG FEELINGS ARE DROWNING ME! NOW GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE AND CHANGE MY BUNNY BACK TO BROWN!"
Knowing that there was no way he could ignore her voice for much longer, Loki swung his legs out of the bed and stretched his arms above his head, feeling his back crack he relaxed once more. "I'm coming!" He snarled to her through their connection, before standing up and vanishing from the room, reappearing next to her with his arms crossed.
"Turn my bunny back to brown or else!" She snarled, not looking up from where she was feeding Hella what looked like a disgusting amount of mush. He sniffed towards the food and scrunched his nose up, before waving his hand to turn the rabbit back to brown.
"What in all the nine realms are you trying to feed the poor child!" Loki asked, watching as Hella moved her head away from the spoon and glared at Callie as if she was trying to murder her. "I wouldn't even feed that to the pigs!"
"It is mashed up banana and it is very healthy for a young child!" Callie snapped, spinning around and going bright red. Loki stood in only a low strung pair of green sleeping pants and no shirt, her eyes lingered on his bare torso for slightly longer then she should have, before she ripped them away and stared down at the bowl of food that Hella was refusing to eat. "She's just being temperamental today!"
"Or she has more taste-buds then what you give her credit for!" Loki stated, waving his hand and making the mash in the bowl vanish, making Callie growl in frustration. "Oh shut up, Callie Fury!" He snapped, taking the bowl and spoon from her hands and moving in to the kitchen area. "You humans can do nothing right! Of course she's going to be saying no to banana!" He muttered, moving around the kitchen to collect pots, oats and a wooden spoon. Filling the pot with water and then with oats he put it on to the stove and started to heat it, idly stirring it with the wooden spoon every now and then to make sure it didn't burn to the bottom. "Banana is a snack food, not breakfast! She knows it is breakfast time, thus meaning that she wants breakfast, not snack food. Giving her snack food at this time is going to throw her off for the whole day! Don't they teach you humans anything?"
Callie was able to ignore the insult as she watched him bang around the kitchen, cooking the oats and then cooling them down with a wave of his hand, before placing them in the bowl and moving to stand next to Hella. She did not know what to say, but she knew that she didn't want this moment to end. She didn't want to watch the humanity slip from Loki and watch him twist and turn in to the monster that he projected to the world. Watching him with Hella made it hard to believe the terrible things the man had done, but then again, it was heart wrenching to know what the world had put the man through.
"Are what the books say true?" She asked, moving to sit on the bar stool by the counter and watching as Hella happily ate the oats up as Loki put the spoon near her mouth. "About you, I mean." She watched as his back stiffened before he forced himself back in to an arrogant stance, standing up and holding the bowl and spoon out to her.
"Next time get the food right." He snapped, watching as she took the offered utensil and bowl before she started to feed Hella. "I won't stand by and let you screw up again." He added, before vanishing in to thin air.
"JARVIS, wipe the last half an hour of recorded footage from your data banks." Callie said, glancing at her bunny before groaning loudly.
"Ma'am, I think it wise to tell Master what has ha-" Jarvis said, but Callie silenced him with a few words.
"I said delete the recorded footage, JARVIS. Do it yourself or I will do it manually."
"Recorded footage deleted, ma'am."
"Thank you JARVIS."
Callie spent the rest of the morning bathing and dressing Hella before feeding her now bright yellow bunny, she was starting to worry that all the colour changes the poor thing was going through would get some side effects. But he seemed fine, apart from the fact that he was now bright yellow.
"Mashed peas and carrots will be fine for lunch, Callie Laufeyson."
Sighing Callie grabbed the sunstone from the couch and shoved it around her neck, not wanting to hear Loki give her instructions all day. It seemed he had gone back to saying Callie Laufeyson once again, it seemed his jealousy for Bruce had wavered since he had left the picture. Sighing as she played with the small stone her thoughts drifted to what may have happened to Bruce, he had vanished from the radar once more and even her father couldn't find him. Of course that was one of Bruce's best attributes, when he wanted to hide, it would take years to try and hunt him done once more.
She just wished he would take her with him.
This is just a really short chapter, but I really wanted to show Loki in a different light. He really is an amazing father and I think showing that gives him more then one dimension. To many stories rely on his insanity and lust for power over rule him and he becomes one dimensional, where as Loki has so many layers to him that need to be discussed and shown so that you get a clear picture of what has happened to him.
Thanks for all the reviews and love I am getting from you guys!
