MARVEL one-shots

Frostiron #1 part 2

The first thing Tony saw when he opened his eyes the next morning was his ceiling. His completely normal, platinum, gold embroided ceiling. He took a deep breath, and listened to the birds chirping outside the windows.He blinked, rolled over to the side, and panicked. 

Beside him in the bed laid a someone. A very blue someone, with raven black hair. Tony gasped and threw himself out of the bed, quickly shuffling to is feet while frantically trying to remember if he slept with some weird cosplayer or something last night. But when he saw the face of the person who laid in his bed, everything came back to him. Loki. Thor. Their arrengement.  He let out a breath and calmed down. He made sure that Loki was still fast asleep, before quietly tip-toeing out of his bedroom and into the kitchen. 

"JARVIS,  will you fry up some pancakes for us, would you?" he said, while locking up his phone screen, checking his e-mail's to see if anything worth his time had happen while he slept.

"Us, sir?" JARVIS answered, while mechanic arms began to crack some eggs into a bowl, then adding some milk and flour. 

"Yeah , you probably don't know that, but you see, Thor needed some help with his brother, Loki, who..."

"I am well aware of mr. Odinson's brother and his occupation at the tower, sir. I was merely wondering how you were so sure he would want pancakes." JARVIS sounded almost a little bit offended, like he was questioning how Tony could ever believe he wouldn't know they had a guest. 

"Because everyone love's pancakes. Have you ever met anyone who didn't like pancakes?" Tony said with confidence, and got no answer. "See? I'm right. And if he, against all odds, wouldn't like pancakes, then tough shit, because that's what is served."

"How very charming of you." came a voice from the door. Tony turned around, and saw Loki standing there, dressed in a long green tunic and tight, black leather pants. His hair was braided in a sloppy braid, and he was barefoot. "Fortunately for me," he continued, "I happen to be quite fond of pancakes. We do have them on Asgard too, you know. Even though, there, they are served with a rich apple jam, made of the fallen fruits from Idun's trees." Loki strolled over to the kitchen table, sitting down on a chair opposite to Tony's, and rested his head in his hands. 

Tony smirked at him. His skin really was unbelievably blue, and those eyes. How was it possible that eyes could be so red? Well, actually, when he thought about it, his own eyes could look pretty red after a heavy night out drinking, but not like Loki's. Tony's eyes shifted from the eyes to the horns. They truly were massive, and already decorated with jewels.

Suddenly, a big plate of pancakes were placed on the table inbetween them, and just a second later a bottle of maple syrup was placed beside it. 

While they ate, Tony thought about his mission. After all, the whole reason he was eating breakfast with the God of mischief and lies, as Thor had said Loki's title was, was because he was supposed to find a cure for Loki's whole blue-ish-ness. That would not be an easy task to solve, since not even the famous healers of Asgard could fix it. He assumed that they had been using magic, so maybe he should try some scientifical methods? Like pouring a bucket of ice cold water over the God and see if that would work.

"How about we, after breakfast, start working on your little problem, Loks?" Tony looked at his watch, "Meet me in my lab at eleven o'clock?" 

Loki huffed when Tony called his state a 'problem', but agreed to meet him after he had finished his breakfast.

************

When Tony later after breakfast entered his lab, he was quite surprised to find Loki already there. The God/Frost Giant sat on a dark purple velvet sofa, woth his legs crossed.

"How did you get here?" Tony asked.

"I used an incredibly advanced tracking spell which helped me  locate this secret sciense cave of yours." Tony stared at him, and Loki smirked. 

"You asked JARVIS?"

"I asked JARVIS."

"Well then, since you're already here, let's get started. If you please," Tony gestered to one of his working benches, one of few which were not owerflowed with gadgets and different kinds of technical stuff. Loki took three long, graceful steps towards the bench, and with a little jump positioned himself on top of the bench. His legs didn't quite reach the floor, so they were left dangling in the air. Tony picked up a thermometer, and pointed it towards Loki.

"Say 'ah'" he said with a smile plying on his lips. Loki just rolled his eyes at the mortal's foolisness, but opened his mouth and placed the small stick under his tongue. After a small amount of time, he took it out again and gave it back to the millionair. 

"Now what good would that do, if I may ask?" asked Loki while raising an eyebrow. 

"I had to know if your body temperature was too cold for me to touch. And accordning to this," he glanced down at the thermometer, "yep. Way to cold for me to touch. So I guess I will have to use these." Tony opened a drawer, and picked up a pair of brown, leather gloves, made to protect his hands from frost burns. 

But just as he was about to place his hand on Loki's arm to roll up the sleeve, he stopped.

"Shit, I almost forgot!" he exclaimed and quickly reached into his pocket, picking up his phone. Just a second later, the music to "Ice, ice, baby" started pouring out from the speakers. Loki looked at Tony. 

"You got to be kidding me." 

"Not even a little bit. So are you ready for this, my Ice, Ice baby?" Tony said, and wiggled his eyebrows.

"I am, but if you ever call me that again, I will turn you into a tick and let you be eaten by a bird."

"Sure, whatever you say."

But after two hours they had gotten nowhere. No explanation as to why Loki's body had shifted from the normal aesir to, well, this, no explanation on how to turn him back, and the only thing they had achieved was a soaking wet Loki. Yes, Tony did actually pour a bucket of ice cold water over the God, just to see if that would work. Obviously, it did not, but at least now they knew that, right?

"I'm telling you Loki, this was a hard nut to crack." The genius finally proclaimed, after having taken dozen of blood tests on Loki, to see if the answer laid in his blood.

"My, my Stark, you are disappointing me. Aren't you supposed to be some kind of genius on your planet? Thor seemed to be really sure you would fix his abnormal little 'brother'" Loki teased, and hopped down from the working bench which he had been sitting on the whole time. 

"You're damned right I'm a genius, but not even a genius could figure this out in just one day. You need to give me some time to work on this."

"So what do we do now?" The God asked with a puzzled look on his face. Tony shrugged. 

"Ice cream?"

"Sounds good to me."

AN/ Yey, I'm back with another part! Hope you guys liked it! I think I am going to make this fic a bit longer, like at least a few chaptes, but I will still continue to update with regular oneshots and maybe some other longer fics too. Until next time!

Kisses!
