As punishment for crimes against Midgard, Loki is bound to bracelets that force him to become obedient: much to his disgust. Whoever holds the Stone of Command, holds the free will of the Asgardian. However, when the Avengers are involved things are never easy. Not to mention when an enemy makes use of such information. No Slash, Rated T to be safe.

Steve is horrified by what he finds in a dark alley, walking home from the diner one night. What exactly was Loki's punishment in Asgard, anyway?

A "what if" played after the events of the Avengers. When Thor comes back from Asgard silent and sulking, the team questions him. Tony finds his answer upsets him more than it should. And then, he finds out it might not be as true as he thought.FROSTIRON
