I Tied a Knot in Tasha's Hair

Author's note: The more I see of these Midgardian motion pictures, the more I think that Asgard should really up it's movie game.


"Bucky?" said Steve. "What... what..."

"Uh, yeah, I just wanted to tell you alive and I'm about to join you in Civil War."

"Uh..."

"Okay, then," said Bucky, rubbing his hands together uncomfortably. "I'll just be going then..."

"WAIT!" said Steve, and ran and gave Bucky a hug. I rolled my eyes. "I haven't seen you in forever," said Steve, sniffling.

"I'm bored," said Tony.

"We should watch a movie," said Tasha.

"It's a Wonderful Life," said Tony eagerly.

"Tony, you know very well that we don't have that," said Pepper.

"But we could get it on netflix!"

"No, that takes wifi," said Pepper. "And you aren't allowed to use the wifi."

"The wifi that I'm paying for," Tony grumbled.

"No, we should watch Scrooge," said Clint. "It's a classic."

"I've never seen it," said Steve, finally realizing that a conversation was going on around him. "Bucky, have you seen it?"

"It's the story of A Christmas Carol but it's a musical," Clint explained.

"A musical?" said Tony. "Nooo!"

"You have no taste," said Clint. "Musicals are great."

"We should do an Avengers musical!" said Thor loudly. Everyone groaned.

"Let's just start the movie," said Tasha. "Do we have it?"

"I have a VCR of it!" said Clint brightly. Everyone groaned again.

"Well, since no one else will pick anything," said Clint, "I'm turning it on."

"I didn't know I even had a VCR player," said Tony, as Clint stuck the movie in.

I sighed. Not another movie made by puny mortals. They always make me jealous of Midgard and its film abilities.


"Cookie break," said Nat, switching off the tv. "Loki, are you crying?"

What can I say? I found that I identified with the protagonist a lot.

"No," I sniffled. "Gods don't cry."

"I cried when you died," said Thor, who likes to give me guilt trips.

"Puny god," was all I could say.

Tasha started the movie again.

Now, I hadn't been pranking anyone all day, and my fingers itched for mischief. I happened to be sitting next to Bucky. And he had a metal arm...

"WHAT IN STALIN'S NAME IS THIS?" roared Bucky, tearing at his arm.

"My Little Pony!" squealed Thor. "That's my FAVOURITE TV show!"

"Loki, did you do this?" frowned Steve. "Why would you think it's funny to stick ponies all over Bucky's arm?"

"Uh... it's magnetic?" I said.

"You're so immature," sighed Natasha. I glared at her.

"I'll let this pass," said Steve, "but only because I'm in a really good mood since Bucky is here."

"Um, actually, I should probably go now," said Bucky, standing up. "I have Russian things to do."

"Nooo!" said Steve, but I had stopped paying attention. I was glaring at Natasha still. She's called me immature. How could she? She'd pay...

Half an hour later...

"Thank ya very much!" sang Clint loudly, doing a little jig. "I told you this movie was great!"

"It wasn't bad," Tony admitted. "For a musical."

"I fear I shall need a night light tonight," said Thor. "I don't like ghosts."

"Don't worry," said Pietro. "It's not Christmas Eve yet."

"Well," said Tasha, stretching. "I wouldn't call it a complete waste of an evening." She stood up.

Or tried to. Only to find that her hair had been tied to her chair.

"Oww!" she shrieked. "Who did this? Clint?"

"Of course not," said Clint, offended. "I only pulled your hair once. And I was mind controlled at the time, by..."

Everyone turned towards me.

"It was just a prank!" I protested, as Nat rushed at me angrily, dragging the chair behind her.

"Prank or not, I know someone who's not getting any presents from me this Christmas!"


Author's Note: Hey all! Christmas will be a bleak time for me, apparently. No presents. But YOU will all get me some, right? RIGHT?

DeVilDahling- Actually there's a video on YouTube with "Reindeers are better than people" but with ME instead of Kristoff and Sven. :) It's pretty funny.
RussianAssassin- Whenever I go "ehehehe" Lily's sister's cat runs away like a streak of black lightning. See, watch- EHEHEHE! There she goes. -_-
lotrfangirl16- ehehehe Well I could always find some way of twisting it so that I can blackmail you with it instead! EHEHEH!
LadyOfAnfalas- Thanks! That WAS a pretty fun one... }:D
Elessar's Daughter- Yes. I can use my powers for evil even on Midgard without killing millions! ^-^ I'm so accomplished. That contest sounds really fun to watch! Next time we do one, I'll be in the audience creating snowballs for people to dodge. }:)

Thanks guys! You're so much nicer than the Avengers!
