Chapter 9: How About It?

The second you entered the door, you ran to Thor's side yelling.

"Thor! Loki! Amazing news!" Both of the gods turned their attention to you with a curious look.

"What's up Lady (Y/N)?" Thor asks, smiling as he sees the smile on your face.

"Fury said that Loki can join the team if he wants to! He said that, with my approval, Loki would stay in my spare room in my apartment with me and he wouldn't have to stay in this cell!" You report energetically while jumping up and down, waving your wings a bit and creating a small breeze.

"That's amazing!" Thor exclaimed almost deafeningly loud. He quickly stood to capture you in a bone-breaking hug which you happily returned.

"So Loki, how about it? Wanna be an Avenger?" You ask once Thor put you down.

Loki was staring at nothing in particular, consumed by thought. He wanted so badly to be out of the cell, but he was almost afraid of how his joining the team would be taken. He was honestly shocked that they even considered having him as a part of the team. After all he had done, had you actually convinced them to let him out?

He made up his mind quicker than he thought he would, reminding himself to thank you profusely.

"Yes. I would like to join the team." Loki said stronger than the thought he would. He guessed he wanted to be out of that cell more than he thought.

"Yes!" You exclaim happily, jumping up and down, suspended temporarily by the flapping of your huge wings.

"This is wonderful brother!" Thor exclaims with a huge smile on his face.

"That's great Loki!" Steve congratulated as he approached the cell.

"Ah. The captain has come to visit. Have you brought anyone else?" Loki said greeting Steve, and turning towards you.

"The only others here are Natasha and Clint. They were curious about your answer." You state calmly and simply.

The two aforementioned Avengers waved from the back of the room. Nat's was kind and Clint's was probably forced.

Loki only nodded in their direction, unsure of what to say to them. Then he turned to you.

"Do you know when I will be moved from here?" Loki asked.

"I'm not sure on the specifics, but it won't be more than a few days if not today. Probably tomorrow afternoon at the latest actually." You say, "I can ask Fury about it when I give him your answer." 

"Alright then. I assume you're going to give him my answer today?"

"Actually, if Thor doesn't mind watching you for a couple more minutes, I was going to go tell him now."

"I do not mind Lady (Y/N)." Thor said as he hugged you once again out of pure happiness.

"Thanks Thor! You're a life saver!" You yell back as you reach the door.

"It's what I do Lady (Y/N)!" Thor calls back. You laugh to yourself as Steve, Clint and Nat follow you out.

"That was nice." Nat stated as she walked with you and the others.

"Yeah. It was." Steve chimed in.

"I know there's not much to do about it now, so ill try to learn to live with him." Clint said with a sigh.

"That's better than nothing Clint. Thanks." You say, giving him a pat on the shoulder.

"Yeah yeah. Good Samaritan, blah blah." Clint said sarcastically.
