Thor groaned. He swore his artificial eye was acting funny.
He wouldn't complain, the thing was an absolute marvel. To think he could actually see through it! His only big issue was that would scratch when it rained, and he rather not take it for a swim or anything. Other than that it was hardly noticeable.
Unlike his arm which even after all these years would still release a shock wave of pain through his body when he accidentally moved it in a wrong way or if it got hit.
These things were nothing though, it was an easy trade to make and Thor had no regrets what so ever. He would gladly do it again.
And so Thor just rubbed it a bit as he stood at the plaza of New Asgard, trying to calm himself down.
Offer up his other eye and arm if that is what he needed to do to keep this outcome.
"There you are Thor."
Thors eyes widened by the voice… Was that? But what was she doing here? "Natasha?" he asked as he swirled around and then halted
It was indeed Natasha Romanoff, but she was not alone… Clint was standing next to her. Tony holding a little Morgan in his arm and Pepper next to the two smiling.
Bruce was not really a surprise, he lived here. But he was there, as well as a grinning Valkyrie and a slightly amused Phill Coulson.
Thor gaped. "You… What are you all doing here?!" he asked. "And when did you get here?"
"I picked them all up." Tony smirked. "A certain someone asked us to come and you know what, I had to agree."
"Huh?" Thor blinked. "Who?"
"I did." Loki stepped out next to Thor and Thor gaped.
"Brother?" Thor asked. "You… You called upon?" he couldn't believe it.
"He sure did." Tony smirked. "Should have heard him telling everyone single one of us off! Thor saved your world and the people you care about. You need to show him respect."
"That was just what I needed to tell you Tony." Loki rolled his eyes then he halted. "Thor, people here do owe you the world. I know it's important to you that we all get along. So, I thought it was better to get everyone here so we could smooth out any." he cleared his throat. "Questions."
Coulson looked at Loki smirking lightly, Loki averted his eyes from his look.
"And I also already took the liberty to talk a few things out with a few individuals." Loki muttered.
Clint shook his head. "I don't care." he admitted. "My family is back! That's all that matters to me!" he stated. "So I owe Loki for that? Fine, we're good! You told the truth, you stabbed me to save the world. As for New York." he shrugged. "That's just one out of two versions, beside Loki was kind of compromised on that one."
"So I was right." Coulson smirked. "You really had no conviction back then."
"Shut up." Loki muttered. "Hope it was a pleasant vacation to Tahiti." he snorted.
"We don't speak of that." Coulson evenly dismissing the conversation.
Natasha shook her head as she stepped forward until she was in front of Thor, she smiled as she looked up, her eyes wet. "You did it." she whispered, then leaned over and hugged Thor tight. "You really did it!"
Thor blinked, then he smiled softly wrapping his arms around Pepper.
"ME TO!" Morgan suddenly shouted, one thing Morgan had quickly figured out in her young days. Thor was super strong and could easily lift her up. And that was a lot of fun! Eagerly did Morgan jump down on the ground only to zoom towards Thor right into his hands and allowed the god to lift her up as if she only weighed the same as a feather. "YAAAAY!" Morgan laughed happily as she was lifted up in the air.
Thor chuckled. "Have you remembered to be good?" he asked.
"I'm always good!" Morgan replied.
Tony snorted as he walked up beside them. "Lies." he stated. "You're just lucky I love you so much."
"I love you more dad!" Morgan replied. "I love you a hundred!"
"Oh yeah, well I love you a thousand." Tony replied.
"I love you three thousand!" Morgan grinned.
And Tony made a motion as if he was about to faint, then turned around. "You all heard that right? Three thousand!" he stated. "I'm the best one!" he proudly pointed at himself.
Fondly Thor looked at the girl sitting so safely on his arm, then he turned to the others. "You didn't all have to come." he said.
"We wanted to." Pepper assured him as all the others nodded.
"Personally I find this to be high priority." Loki informed bluntly. "Thor, you're off duty for the rest of the day. I really must insist."
Thor smirked. "Are you trying to command your king?" he asked.
"The well being of the king has a direct effect on the well being on Asgard which is of highest priority." Loki replied smoothly. "More than that, my brother carries a lot of burdens. And I do believe this should ease a lot of his concerns."
Tony sighed as he looked at Loki. "I still can't believe you were at my wedding." he admitted. "Well one of them. I even considered making you best man, but yeah. Rhodey totally had that one in the bag in either time line."
"I am just glad we can. Ahem, look past our unfortunate relationship in one timeline." Loki replied making Tony smirk and Thor swallowed.
Loki had told him he was doing okay with the others, but to actually see it for himself was an entirely other story.
Maybe these people were just giving Loki the benefit of the doubt for Thors sake, but even if that was the case, Thor was thankful. He already knew Loki was going to spend his chance well.
"Don't fight." Morgan pouted, still sitting on Thors arm.
"Never sweetheart! Never!" Tony proclaimed.
Natasha sighed. "That kid is going to be spoiled rotten."
"No, she wont." Pepper assured as she stepped forward and finally relieved Thor of the girl. "Remember what we say Morgan, when Thor has been so nice to lift you up like you wanted."
"Thank you Thor!" Morgan grinned.
Thor chuckled. "Any time Morgan." he assured.
"So, are we having a party tonight or what?!" Valkyrie asked. "I am voting ten barrels of mead and twenty bottles of whiskey!"
"Do you know the meaning of restraint?" Loki asked Valkyrie.
"Hey come on, the world has been saved! If there ever was a time to just open all the kegs it would be now!" Valkyrie proclaimed.
"Can I have mead?" Morgan asked.
"NO!" Both Tony and Pepper shouted making Thor chuckle.
"I wouldn't mind a glass myself." Natasha smirked.
"Well, if there ever was a time." Clint shrugged.
"A party it is." Tony grinned.
And Thor grinned. Then he looked at Loki whom smiled as well… Loki had called them. And now they were all here! All knew all about both time lines. The world was saved, and things… All around they were all right.
End.
AN: Okay! Now it's the final end... third ending, but more endings. This is the real end!
Honestly, with all that is going on in the world right now where I myself am also in a insecure situation. Writing these bonus chapters has really helped. It helped me unwind and remove myself a bit from the uncertainty. And people giving a word helped a lot to, it put a smile on my face in a uncertain time so thank you.
If anyone is interested I have written other Thor/Loki centred MCU fics that can be checked out. But again, no one has to! People just following this one is making me smile. I am glad people would just read this one.
So thank you again, everyone take really good care of yourself and each other! But mindful, and take it one day at the time. Enjoy the good things in life and take the hits as they come. We'll get through this. Like both Thor and Loki made it through the hard times in this fic.
Lots of love. Moonbird.
