True to Aileen's words, Tony came in and woke Harry up about two hours before dinner. To pass the time, Harry was led down to Tony's lab to scan his magic. The lab was as interesting as the rest of the tower. It was filled with various types of machinery and metal. The Iron Man suits lined one of the walls and random metal pieces were strewn across every surface. Harry was led over to a stool and told to sit still while his Dad and Bruce sat in front of screens, talking to each other and Jarvis about what they saw. Loki came down during their discussion and looked at the screen.
"Well, his magic is similar to yours, but not the same." Tony said. He brought the scan over for Harry to see. He pointed to the area under Harry's stomach, "That's your magical core. We won't know exactly how your magic works until you actually use it."
"Do you think your law about underage magic works if you aren't in Britain?" Bruce asked.
"I don't know." Harry responded.
"What if I were to shield you for a little while? You could do a few simple spells and Tony records it, it should be enough." Loki suggested.
"That might work." Tony replied. "Jarvis get ready to scan, focus on the new signature."
"As you wish Sir." Jarvis replied.
Loki made a few hand motions and then nodded to Harry. Harry took out his wand and waved it, "Lumos" a bright light appeared at the tip. When Tony nodded he waved his wand again, "Nox"
"That's pretty handy, what's next?" Tony asked.
"Wingardium Leviosa" He did the motion and pointed his wand to a cup sitting on the table in front of him.
"Impressive." Bruce nodded.
"Do you have enough?" Loki asked.
"I should." Tony replied. "It seems like the magic is channeled through the wand. Makes sense. It's like it's drawn out of the core and through the wand."
"Hmm, that is different." Loki said, looking at the screen.
"How?" Harry asked.
Loki turned back to Harry and held up his hand, green sparks danced around his fingers. "You're magic comes only from your core. It would seem that most of your spells require the use of a wand, I assume very few can be done without it."
Harry shrugged.
"My magic is in my blood, it is my very essence and being. A person's magic is personal to them; that is why mine is green, my mother's is gold. I have no use for a wand. Our spells differ as well, I can't imagine either one of us could perform each other's spells."
Harry nodded.
"I think we should have enough info to get at least a cellphone working." Tony said.
"Are you really going to try to get technology working in the wizarding world?" Harry asked.
"Of course, I'm sure you don't want to tire Snow White out with the long journey."
"Snow White?" Harry asked.
"I believe he means your owl." Loki chuckled.
"Oh, what's wrong with Hedwig, it's her name." Harry said.
Bruce chuckled, "He has a nickname for just about everyone, don't worry about it."
(Line Break)
Dinner was delicious and Harry got to know everyone better. Aileen had changed into regular clothes and happily chatted with Loki about things on her planet.
"So this is what it's like to have a family." Harry smiled to himself as he looked around at the people around the table, laughing and making jokes.
After dinner the family was sitting in the living room talking when a large owl flew into the room, dropped a letter on Harry's lap, and perched itself on a bookshelf.
"What's that?" Clint asked.
"It's my Hogwarts letter. I guess I'm still going to school there." Harry replied.
"That's good, we'll have that fireplace set up by the end of the week." Tony said.
"I better reply back." Harry rushed off to his room to get parchment and ink. He quickly wrote back and gave it to the owl along with a treat, sending the bird off.
"That was so weird." Clint said.
"I don't know, I think it's pretty cool. They're like carrier pigeons, except they're owls." Bruce said.
"Still weird." Clint muttered. The few people that heard him rolled their eyes.
Really short chapter, I know…That's why I'm posting two chapters instead of just one. Hope you liked it :D
