POV: Tony

Loki and Thor come back from the library after only a couple hours. Loki is busy with something on his phone. Maybe he discovered games or is trying to code that dagger app.

"Have any Midgardian writers finally satisfied you?" Thor asked, looking like he could tell the answer.

"I wasn't reading," Loki shrugged.

"Where's the tesseract what the  Loki? Thor what the-" I ranted, really not wanting to have to save the universe again.

"Language," Steve muttered, reading a newspaper like a true old man.

"I don't give a crap about language," I said.

"I wasn't stealing the tesseract? Why do you think I want that thing?" Loki said defensively. He was obviously a good liar. But obviously we all knew he was lying.

"Because you stole it, brother. Out of curiosity, what were you doing?" Thor inquired.

"If you must know, I was helping this kid Peter Parker with his science project," he said. His phone beeped and he kind of panicked.

"Crap what do I tell him to call me?"

"What- is he like- you have is number?" Steve asked, putting down the newspaper.

"Well, the internet exists. Can I tell him to call me Loki?"

"Heck no! You're not here! You're on Asgard!" I said. "Also, you don't use the internet to get phone numbers!"

"I don't have the tesseract. I said that already."

"Brother, allow me-" Thor took the phone and pressed a few buttons. "Now you never have to worry about that conversation ever again."

I grabbed the phone, knowing Thor wasn't nearly as tech savvy as me.

"Did you just archive the text chain?" I unarchived it and texted the kid Call me Mr. L. "There you go. Problem solved. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll-"

"Explode the universe?" Steve asked. "Remake Ultron?"

Screw you, Steve. "Find an intern who's not braindead."

I walked down to my lab I'd worked on the iron man suits in, but pulled up the holograms for my newly posted internship availability. It was flooded with candidates, of course, but hardly any had even passed their science classes. Even the ones who got A's were still relatively average, and all their applications said stuff about the Avengers and whatnot. Not helpful.

I delete them all and tell Jarvis to send them all rejection emails subtly hinting that applying twice was not going to be taken seriously and immediately be rejected. Now if I just found myself a good intern, someone who doesn't just want to hang out with the Avengers...

My phone made a sound like an air horn, one of Loki's pranks, and I looked at what happened. That stupid Asgardian...
