"It's physics. Simple." Tony informed the group cockily, standing up to take his turn at picking up Mjölnir.

You rolled his eyes at his comment, sitting back to see if he would be the first one to accomplish it. Nobody had managed to even make it budge and you were doubtful that anyone would.

After many unsuccessful attempts at lifting it, some including the hand of his suit, Rhodey, and Rhodey's suit, he gave up, accepting defeat.

Everyone laughed, Tony grumpily brushing the comments of, muttering something about needing to run some tests.

"Anyone else?" Thor asked, picking Mjölnir up effortlessly, flipping it around in his hands as if it were as light as a feather.

"Hey, (Y/N) hasn't attempted it yet." Clint announced drunkenly, pushing you off the couch.

"No, I'm okay thanks." You raised your hands jokingly in surrender.

"Oh, come on!" Nat egged you on, earning a few other words of encouragement from the group of drunks.

"Fine." You sighed defeatedly, lifting yourself up from the floor, making your way over to Thor who was towering over you.

He sat Mjölnir down on the coffee table before stepping back. He gestured for you to go for it.

You laughed nervously, leaning down to pick it up. "See, nothi-"

You squealed as you felt the hammer lift up effortlessly in your grip. You pulled your hand back, accidentally letting the hammer slip and fall to the ground.

You stared down to it in horror, holding your hand against your chest. Your eyes lifted to the group who all stared at you in shock, not believing what had just happened.

"D-did that just happen?" Clint drunkenly slurred, sitting his glass of whiskey on the coffee table.

You couldn't reply, you were speechless. You glanced up at Thor, who looked between you and the hammer, confused, before realisation hit his face.

"Wha-How did that happen?" You asked nervously. Surely they were tricking you. You were just waiting for them to tell you that it was a fake Mjölnir and that it was all a prank.

"You are pure." Thor admitted.

"And that means?" You asked, hoping for him to explain.

"You are pure, a virgin." Thor spoke loudly. You instantly turned red at his words.

"You're a virgin?" Tony laughed, looking up at you. You gave him no answer but you're reddening face gave the group all of the answers they needed.

"You were able to lift Mjölnir because of your purity." Thor continued, making you wish he would just shut up.

"I can't believe you're a virgin." Clint spoke loudly, glancing around the room, looking as if he had just heard something mind blowing about the universe and was now having an existential crisis.
