A/N: Clint looks like a Norfolk Terrier.
Thanks so much to my beta krystal Lazuli
"Loki, turn him back," Thor commanded immediately as he looked down at the small brown dog. The dog's fluffy fur was the same color as the archer's hair. The little dog looked very... adorable...not that he would ever tell the archer that when the Loki turned Clint back.
"I like him better this way," Loki said with a shake of his head. Thor sighed.
"Loki, I know you don't like what he's accusing you of, but you have to remember your other self brainwashed him. He made him hurt and kill his friends and work with people that were his enemies. Imagine if that happened to you and someone looking exactly like the person who brainwashed you came around again," Thor pleaded trying to get Loki to understand. Loki sighed and looked down at the small dog much less happy than he was a few moments ago.
"I really don't like him," he said with a shake of his head then turned back to Thor "You promise you'll keep him out of my way and out of my hearing range?" he demanded his eyes flashing.
"Yes," Thor said and looked at the rest of Avengers trying to get them to agree to help him with this.
"If he says anything.." Loki threatened.
"He won't," Thor promised. Loki sighed but waved his hand and the archer shifted back to his own form. He looked furious and opened his mouth.
"If you don't want to be Fido again I would suggest keeping your mouth shut," Tony suggested.
Loki smiled; he wasn't sure what a Fido was but he certainly liked the man's humor.
The ones called Natasha and Clint took that moment to leave the room. Clint clearly angry, but obviously he didn't want to become a dog again. Loki wasn't sure why Natasha was leaving. He couldn't think what he had done to cause this reaction, but he realized that he did not really want to know. Instead, he sat down on the red couch in the room simply because it was the closest. Now there was only him, Thor, Tony, and the one with the large shield. He wasn't sure what the one with the large shield was called. Large shield hadn't said much and mostly seemed to just be watching him carefully. The one called Tony clapped his hands drawing everyone's attention.
"Okay, since apparently even though it's my house, S.H.I.E.L.D can decide who can stay here. That doesn't mean that isn't still my house and as such you will obey my rules or I will throw you out the window."
Loki looked up angrily."I did not throw you-"
"My house my rules," Tony said sternly. Still he found him a lot less scary than he found Fury; which again, he thought might because of similarities between him and his father. They both had one eye and they both spoke from the diaphragm when they yelled.
"Rule number one, no killing anyone," Tony said holding up a single finger.
"I'm not a murderer," Loki said icily. "This is the last time I will warn you; the next time I will turn you into some sort of animal as well," he promised.
"Yeah, jury's still out on that one," Tony said.
Loki supposed it was a step up that Tony had conceded at least a slight possibility of him being truthful. That he was still able to vocally disagree with him even after watching him change Clint made him much more interesting.
"Anyways onto rule #2, no more turning people into animals."
Loki rolled his eyes."I only turned him into a creature after he didn't heed my warning numerous times. It's not like turning him into an animal has any long-term side effects. It's the least lethal but most fitting punishment I can come up with, unless you would rather something harsher?" he said with a suggestive tone falling back into bad habits. When he was annoyed, angry, or someone tried to tell him what to do he tended to say something to make them feel uncomfortable because it made him feel better and more in control of the situation.
Stark blinked at him for a moment before shrugged nonchalantly."Sorry, you're not my type," he said with a nonchalant shrug.
Loki grinned because normally in Asgard they would be angry or uncomfortable at his insinuation, but the man in front of him had hardly reacted at all. "Pity," he said with a shark grin trying again, but Stark didn't avert his eyes just kept staring back at him, he really did like the man. "Okay then, what is your next rule?" he said and Stark looked at him knowing full well that he hadn't agreed to his last rule.
"Rule number three," Stark said holding up three fingers after a long moment and Loki's grin grew "Don't mess-"
Loki heard a loud noise and saw that Thor was sitting on another couch in front of a large screen and was watching people in it running. Loki frowned, what was this? Was this some sort of memory screen? A look at the screen showed none of the rooms current occupants. He rose from his position and slowly made his way over to Thor, unconsciously blocking out everything that Stark was saying. What was this? He sat next to Thor on the long red couch and looked at the screen.
"Gods and their reality TV shows," he heard Stark say.
Loki frowned. He heard footsteps heading away from them and he looked up to see Stark leaving.
"What is a reality TV show?" Loki asked.
Stark smirked.
"Only man's greatest accomplishment," he said.
A/N: This isn't Frostiron romance, Loki was just flirting to make Tony uncomfortable which obviously doesn't work.
