"morning guys" Maria yawned rubbing her eyes tiredly.
"good morning sleepy head" Tony replied, handing her a cup of earl grey and a plate of pancakes drowned in maple syrup.
"Thanks" she muttered tiredly collapsing regally on the sofa her blood red dressing gown sprawled around her.
"Any plans for your 'patient' today?" Clint asked from under a pile of blankets.
"Harry Potter." she shrugged.
"Really? People have died you know."
"Not intentionally on his part." she replied, squirreling away the last of her pancakes.
"What do you mean?" Natasha asked.
"It's a long story that I don't fully understand myself."

Sighing, Loki started to count the pages in the book that midgardian Maria gave him "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8..." he muttered. Suddenly he noticed footsteps coming from the hall. Looking up from his book he heard someone opening the door. It was the same midgardian as yesterday. Her hair was unkempt and she was in a red dressing gown and black pajamas. He noticed she was carrying a plate of midgardian food and a cup of something. "Good morning Loki. I hope you like pancakes 'cause that's all I could grab." she said with a tired smile, handing him the plate of 'pancakes' and the cup of tea. Pulling up a chair for herself she added "oh by the way you might want some maple syrup. Pour as much as you want, we have plenty." handing him the maple syrup.
(Timeskip courtesy of pancakes)
"I trust that was sufficient?" she asked.
"Yes, it was sufficient."
"Anyway, one Harry Potter and the philosophers stone." she said, handing him the book through the food slot.
"And here is your book." he replied handing her the small book.
"Thank you~" she smiled. "So mind if I ask a few questions?"
Loki though it over for a few seconds. She didn't seem malicious or dangerous, and he could always lie if he needed to.
"Be my guest." he smiled.
"Right, question one," she said pulling out a notepad and pen.
"Are your eyes naturally green?"
"Yes." he replied rolling his eyes.
"Do you despise your brother?"
"He's not my brother." he glared.
"But if he was?"
"If he was, then yes."
"Okay." she replied noting something down.
"Did you really want to rule earth?"
"Of course I did."
"Well thanks for lying, I now know more than I thought."
"What...?"
"I have a built-in lie detector." she explained grinning like the Cheshire cat. "Anyway how old are you?"
"...1048"
"Got it. Are you allergic to cats?"
"I don't think so?"
"Good enough. Sandwiches or croissants?"
"What does that have to do with this?"
"I want your preference for lunch, the basic need to eat is what makes it relevant"
"Croissants then?"
"Good choice. Remind me to bring over the next Harry Potter when you've finished, and I will leave you to read in peace. Good day~" she replied leaving the room and shutting the door behind her.
"Odd midgardian." Loki muttered sitting down on the edge of his bed and picking up the book he received.
(Time-Skip ship)
"How'd it go?" Clint asked climbing out of the air vent.
"Not half bad I think. We have croissants right?"
"Yep." Natasha replied from the sofa.
"Mario party?" she asked.
"Hell yeah." Maria grinned "I'll get snacks."
"I'll grab the first aid kit." Clint added climbing back into the vent.
"I'll set it up, so don't take too long" Natasha called after them.
A/N* Sorry I took so long, but you know, the rest of my life called. I finally watched Spiderman homecoming, so that was awesome. As always reviews are helpful, sorry if it's not great, and if someone could tell me if my other fanfic is any good or not that would be great. Thanks so much for reading, and suggestions would be appreciated to say the least.
