AN: Tumblr prompt: Danny hanging out with the Avengers
Drabble 27-Who's Worthy?
"Just because you catch it midair and 'lead' it towards the bad guy with you ghost shield does not mean you're worthy to use Thor's hammer!"
Danny glared at Tony shooting his idea down.
He knew he wasn't worthy, what with the whole Dan thing. But here they were, laughing and making fun of each other around the table as each new member tried to lift the hammer. All of them were trying to live up to what Cap had done. Even making it nudge a little bit was impressive.
Sam went first, and Danny didn't doubt that the was worthy. He was good, pure, really. All the wanted to do was help people with their problems. He was a trouble magnet that had a need to fix the problem. He was a great friend if Danny's, and a very respected one as well.
He didn't lift the hammer.
Danny was shocked, to say the least. Of all the new people here he expected Sam to be able to do it.
Next was Wanda, who, despite being a good friend, he didn't think she was worthy. She had done the wrong thing for the right reasons one to many times. But she had a good heart. Maybe she would prove Danny wrong.
No, she didn't lift it either.
Clint made some comment about having to have an Odin-related fingerprint to be able to lift it, and Sam just called him a sore loser
Next up was the newest member, Bucky. It was still super rocky between him and Tony, but the relationship between the two was getting better. Danny couldn't tell whether or not the would be able to lift it though. He didn't know enough about the guy, except for the stuff Tucker had sent him. Once he had read it it had become obvious why Bucky and Tony's relationship was so… Not good.
"I think we all know the answer to that question," He held up a hand, declining the offer to try. It was still weird hearing him talk. He didnt do it very often.
That left none other than Danny (because Vision already could) to try. Everyone turned to him, and, while he wanted to decline, he had no reason to.
He stood up, feeling all eye on him as the made his way to the table, Clint jokingly trying to trip him on his way.
"Come on, Casper," Tony grinned, "Are you gonna try using your shield idea?"
Danny shrugged and stuck his hand through the loop and gripped the handle with both hands. He closed his eyes and took a deep breathe, and the could almost feel the hammer humming under his fingertips.
"Hey guy! How's it going?"
Danny's concentration broke as he spun around to greet his sister.
"Hey, Jazz!" He said cheerfully, waving with the hand that held the hammer.
"Dude what the hell?" Tony sounded confused. Everybody else was wide eyed, and Thor looked almost nervous.
"Wait…" he said, still trying to process. Only the worthy people could lift Thor's hammer. But the wasn't worthy. Not with Dan and the fact that he's half dead, and-
"Oh my god dude," Clint said, astounded. Danny took his hand out of the loop and tossed it from hand to hand. So the hammer had been humming. It was almost like it was… Alive.
Asgardian magic was dope.
"So, Tony," Danny said with a shit-eating grin, "Looks like I won't be needing that ghost shield after all."
