Everyone show their resolution together on the table.
Bruce looks at Steve's neatly written paper which is completely packed with so many words that it looks like a piece of black paper with polka dots.
Tony looks at Thor's 'new' paper which is showing nothing at all.
"Are you really that clueless about what to write?" Tony said monotonously.
"No, I'm not." Thor said proudly. "Loki! Show them what I thought up for my resolution."
A soft snore answers back.
"Loki?" Thor looks at Loki who is gently snoring at the sofa.
"…" Thor looks at Loki for a while. "Well, never mind. This information crystal needs magic to activate the crystal to show its information or manually needs a bit of strength to activate it." Thor said while raising his fist to hit the crystal.
"I think you can always later tell us about your resolution." Tony said hastily, not wanting his table to be broken in the process of showing the resolution.
Everyone looks at each other paper curiously.
"Steve, I think you are writing too much for your resolution." Tony said, looking at the paper which is completely filled with Steve's fine-written handwriting.
"It is not much but there is not enough space for everything I want to write for resolution." Steve frowned at his paper. Tony gave him a shock face for writing that much.
"Tony, you better not let Pepper to ever see your resolution." Natasha said, looking at what Tony written on his resolution.
"Nay, I will bring it to a very safe place where she can never find it." Tony said softly and smirking, as Pepper enters the room quietly to find something she left earlier. Clint suddenly has a nasty plan for Tony.
"Hey Nat, if you ever found that someone is doing something they shouldn't be doing, what will you do?" Clint asks with a devil-looking smirk.
Natasha got the hint and grins back.
"Well, I will make sure that the person will suffer so much that he will wish he is in hell!" Natasha emphasize on the word 'person' loudly, attracting Pepper attention from her search.
"Hey, guys. What are you all doing?" Pepper asks with a smile, walking to the table which they are at.
"Hey, Pep…" Tony said nervously, hoping that she will not look at his resolution.
Pepper looks at the papers curiously and briefly.
"Well, we are doing our resolution for these year. Tony's resolution is the most interesting one of all." Clint said with a smirk.
"…" Tony started to sweat profusely at Pepper's interested look at his paper.
"Really?" Pepper said with a raise of an eyebrow, reaching for Tony's resolution. "Then I must see if it is got something to do with improving the company or his manners at the very least."
Tony quickly snatched the resolution out of Pepper reach.
"It is supposed to be a surprise, Pepper." Tony said, hoping that she will accept the excuse.
"Are you sure? Then why are you all showing each other resolution?" Pepper said with a frown.
"It is Tony's idea. Anyway, it is pretty useless if we just write it down and do nothing about the resolution, so we show our resolution to help each other's goal." Steve said.
Pepper nodded her head in agreement and snatched the piece of paper instantly from Tony's hand.
Tony instantly gave an excuse before he ran out of the room.
"What's wrong with him?" Pepper frowned before she looks at Tony's resolution.
"…" All the Avengers look on as Pepper face got redder and redder in anger.
"TONY !"
\ _ /
"Looks like Tony is going to have a bad time of screeching from Pepper over the resolution." Clint sniggered at the thought of Tony's shocked face.
"Well, at least we all now have a goal for this year. Let's help each other to achieve our goals except for Tony (said in monotone)." Steve said with a smile.
"Actually I am wondering about Loki's education. Should we teach him in Asgardian way or our way? Anyway he is still growing up right? Even though Hel did teach just a little, but we can't wait for her to teach Loki and she always is busy I guess as a goddess of death." Bruce said thoughtfully.
Thor looks at Loki thoughtfully, who is still sleeping in the sofa.
"I think we teach him both. Anyway I don't think it is a good idea to have Loki back at Asgard. They still didn't like the pranks he did to them." Thor said.
"So we get to see Loki in school uniform?" Natasha asked, wondering how many girls are going to faint by looking at him being too handsome.
"I guess so. Then who is going to teach him the Asgardian way?" Steve asked with a frown.
"Me!" Thor said proudly.
"No! I mean … it is better to have a more experienced person to teach Loki, as well help with his magic…" Clint said panicky, worried that Thor's patience will not last and the weather will become ruined which means no more dates with his girlfr… ahem… no more outing with his friend.
"Okay, I guess I have to look for Loki's former teachers then." Thor said sadly, unhappy for being unable to teach Loki.
"Well, you try to teach him how to fight or at least defend himself." Steve said, wondering whether Loki will fight the same way as the past or fights like Thor.
Thor immediately brightens up and jumps around excitedly, planning on teaching Loki how to fight.
'If Thor is going to teach in his way, Tony's tower is going to get ruined and maybe we can get a vacation while it is renovating!' Clint thought happily and sniggers a little at the thought.
Tony is practically crawling to the room after a severe lecture from Pepper, drained of his energy.
"I thought I almost died while she is scolding me. I think I almost manage to see my previous life while she continues with that rambling." Tony said tiredly, forcing himself to walk to the sofa, sinking into the comfortable sofa in relief.
"Well, you shouldn't write that sort of thing as a resolution. Anyway we are talking about Loki's education. Since he is growing up as well, we decided to let him learn both Asgardian and our way of education." Steve said, frowning at Tony as he continues to be depressing over the scolding.
"Really? I want to teach him things too!" Tony said, brightening up at the thought of all the bad…ehm… good things he can teach Loki.
'If Tony is going to teach Loki, it's the world end!' Clint almost cried over the hard days ahead.
