Tony poured the Strawberry Rum and the Almond Whiskey into shot glasses and past them around. "So, how old are you?" Clint asked Loki as he nibbled on a cookie. Loki glanced at Thor and Sigyn and then laughed. He grabbed hold of Clint, put him in a choke hold, and rubbed his head with his knuckles.
"Didn't your parents ever tell you, Clint Barton? It's rude to ask people their age!" Loki said before he let go of the archer. Clint tried to fix his hair, but he failed and huffed. Bruce laughed as he offered everybody some Snickers. Sigyn gladly accepted one and bit into it. For a moment, she was confused, and then her face lit up.
"You're not yourself when you're hungry," Tony said, quoting the traditional Snickers commercial. Sigyn laughed and took another. Loki took a sip of the Strawberry Rum, and made a face right before he swallowed it.
"Strong enough for you?" Natasha asked.
"Maybe a little too strong," Loki said, his voice sounding hoarse. Everyone laughed and that was when Steve brought out the birthday cake. It was half chocolate, half vanilla, covered in green icing, with Loki's golden horned helmet in the four corners. The lettering on it said, 'Happy Birthday You Old Codger!' Loki laughed and then frowned at the candle. "What's that for?" he queried. His finger went towards it, but Tony swatted it away.
"You guys don't blow out candles and make wishes on Asgard?" Bruce asked. Loki and Thor shook their heads.
"What have you guys been missing!" Steve said as he set it down. Loki stared at the candle for a moment, closed his eyes, and blew it out. The clapping was loud while Pepper cut the cake. As they ate it, everyone asked him what he wished for. Loki just looked at Sigyn and kissed her. She blushed before she focused on her cake. Loki smirked and glanced at his friends.
"Wouldn't you like to know?"
