Ezra POV
I arrived at the workshop soon after I had left Rachel, Loki and the other Avengers. Tony and Bruce were both engrossed in whatever project they were currently doing, it changes so often that I have given up trying to keep up.
"Tony, Bruce." I said sweetly, "You know how much you love me?"
"Yes, why?" Tony turned to me guardedly, eyes narrowed in suspicion. Bruce just watched me intently.
"Well you know how I like to play a good prank or two?"
"Yes," Tony's eyes darted around the room in heighted awareness, Bruce kept his gaze fixed on me, eyebrows furrowed in worry.
"Oh, don't worry I haven't done anything to you guys. I was just wondering if you wanted to join in on one?" I replied slyly, smirk on my face and an evil look in my eyes.
At this Tony's eyes lit up, his mind already creating various and most likely elaborate pranks. Bruce looked reluctant after seeing the glint in my eyes, and Tony's oblivious scheming.
"I don't think that's a good idea." Bruce said, voicing his reluctance.
"Oh come on Brucie it will be fun, a chance to get Loki and his wife right?" Tony directed his question at me.
"Yes along with the other Avengers. As for Loki, in a way I guess, don't know if he would care. Anyway Bruce don't worry I already have a prank in mind." My words didn't seem to reassure him in anyway.
"Can't you just leave me out of it?"
"No, you're an important part of it. Oh and JARVIS you are too. I promise no one will get hurt, but it will be funny. Please Bruce please!" I begged with my best puppy dog eyes, which happened to be awesome.
"Ok, as long as no one gets hurt," He relented with a sigh.
"YES!" Tony and I shouted with glee.
"You're in too, right JARVIS?"
"Perhaps you should explain what the plan entails before I agree."
"Well..." I continued to fill them in on what I had planned, in utter glee.
As I stepped back onto the communal floor, I heard Rachel and Clint scream my name.
"You called?" I replied as I came into the living area with Tony and Bruce trailing behind me.
"What in Odin's name are you thinking?"
"Whatever do you mean Rach? I leave you alone for a minute and I get accused of something, all I did was retrieve these two geniuses." I reply gesturing at Tony and Bruce behind me.
"Playing me against the avengers? Bad idea."
"Seriously, I don't know what you are talking about," I made sure to sound convincingly confused.
"Hawkeye, little help here please? Before I hit all of you with a truth spell?"
"Oh no, this is too much fun, you're on your own," Clint said smirking and watching on in amusement.
"Will someone just tell me what's going on? Or will I just have to ask JARVIS?" I interrupted Rachel as she was about to say something probably snarky to Clint.
"The little prank about the tracking device and the home arrest," She said while directing a murderous look my way.
"First of all I didn't lie about the tracking device, and I never said anything about house arrest," I replied grumpily.
Tony jumped in saying "Talking about that device I just made a better one that will work worldwide and be able to pin point you to within a centimetre, Brucie when do think you'll be able to put it in?"
He was grinning rather proud of himself and his advanced technologies. Bruce let out a sigh. Clean his glasses as he replied, "Well I guess after this meeting I could change them. But you remember last time, it's properly better to wait until we all have a free afternoon."
"Hm, I see your point. JARVIS when is the next afternoon we all have free?"
"I can reschedule your 12 o'clock appointment tomorrow sir, then you will all be free."
"Good, do that then JARVIS. Now I hear you and Loki want a house," Tony said looking at Rachel.
There was dead silence, all of the Avengers were staring at us in shock. Rachel looked like she was either gonna faint, cry or start shouting.
"Well come on, I don't have all day and my time is precious. Where is reindeer games anyway? I thought he'd be here."
"He's right," snapping out of her shock, she turned around and Loki wasn't there, "He was right behind me. Give me a sec, he's probably gone outside."
She turned around and strode out onto the balcony yelling "Loki get your arse here right now!"
"Hello Dear, what is it that you wanted?" he replied politely appearing out of nowhere.
"Get inside right now," She growled menacingly, as they walked in she mutter under her breath, "You'd think that a husband would support his wife not abandon her. Men."
Hearing this Loki stuttered in his step, looked at his wife guiltily and regretfully, silently apologising but Rachel just ignored him and strode up to Tony.
"Now I will speak to you later, at length, about this tracking device. But first let's get this house planning out of the way?" Her smile was like that of a shark, eyes promising pain. She looked as scary as Nat in that moment. Tony gulped, I was starting to think maybe the prank wasn't such a good idea and had gone on for too long. Oh well.
"Sure thing, just need to know the basics like what you want in for house, how many floors and where you want it." Tony replied flashing his paparazzi smile and false bravado. He then pulled out a tablet to make notes and plans.
"Well we need the basics such as a kitchen, bathroom, laundry, dining area, living room. And a master bedroom with walk in wardrobe, and an en suite." She listed off on her fingers, she then looked Tony dead in the eyes, "I want something tasteful with a nice view and located here in New York. Other than that I don't care about the set up."
"Right, so, well that's all I need. I can get started soon and it should be done in about what 3 weeks JAR?"
"It would be closer to 4 weeks sir."
"Well you heard him, now I have stuff to do, so I'm gonna get back to that."
"Just wait a second Stark. We all have to have a talk about this tracking devise." Rachel said tapping her foot on the ground. It was followed with a chorus of agreements from the rest of the Avengers sans Bruce.
