Thread: Building Bridges(Avengers) Moon/church

It had all happened so suddenly. No one had been expecting it, and how could they have? It was supposed to be over and done with, the bad guy was caught, in prison, and the good guys had won and most of Manhattan had survived and was recovering... and then Thor returned, looking deeply troubled and explained that Loki had been as much of a victim as Hawkeye and Dr. Selvig. He explained that Loki had come into contact with the Tesseract, and it had taken over his brain the way he'd taken over Hawkeye, and that it had left Loki very sick now that he was free of it's poison. He explained how the Asgardian's where refusing to help Loki, refusing to see sense, refusing to admit that Loki couldn't be held accountable for his actions. They refused to even treat him for the injuries he'd gotten from the Avengers, let alone the sickness that was sapping his strength, both physical and magical. To make things worse, apparently Loki's guards had tried to kill him through a severe beating. Which was where Thor returning to Earth came in. he went straight to Tony Stark, and begged the man to let him bring Loki there so he could get some sort of medical treatment. After all, it wasn't really Loki's fault, all that had happened. Loki had even done everything he could to make sure he failed! After all, Loki had been very dramatic about the whole thing, giving the Avenger's all the clues they needed to win. Thor never really gave Tony a chance to say no, he just thanked the Man or Iron and left to go and get Loki, which was how Loki ended up sitting at Tony Stark's breakfast table after having spent the night in a midgaurdian hospital to take care of his various damages. And he really did look like he'd been through the grinder. Bruises where blossomed over his body, he was entirely too thin after being in incarceration for only a month, and he was as pale as the moon... and not in a healthy way. Loki looked exactly how Thor said he would look. He looked like he was sick and had received a hell of a beating... even after The Hulk had gotten done with him, Loki hadn't looked that bad! Loki, you promise to behave? Thor demanded, Loki rolling his eyes. Thor... my magic is being sucked away by some foreign disease that no one is willing to treat. What the hell kind of trouble can I get into!? Loki demanded. besides, I'd much rather be in hell here on midgard, than in hell up in Asgard. Loki muttered. i'm not about to ruin this chance. Now stop hovering, I'm not dying yet. he complained, but the way he said it, indicated that he fully expected this strange affliction to take his life. i'm sure Master Stark can find a use for me, just because I can't use magic without agonizing pain, doesn't mean I'm helpless Thor. Loki complained as Thor looked unconvinced and worried about his little brother. i liked you more when you hated me. you don't mean that. Thor grumbled and Loki sighed and shook his head. i don't mean that. he agreed softly, sounding more like a hurt little boy, than an almighty god of mischief. behave for Tony Loki. Thor ordered. i will do what I can in Asgard. why bother? They have always hated me... at least now I understand why. If they want me gone then so be it. Loki stated with a sniff. i'll make a life for myself on Midgard... selling Tacos. I enjoy tacos. he muttered, looking rather stoned for a moment before he snapped to. or I could sell cars. Lots of people sell cars. Thor just rolled his eyes. This Loki was certainly not the same one that broke Manhattan.
