"So Fury called me," Tony announces as we eat breakfast.

"About what?" Clint manages to say through his mouth full of cereal.

"Said something us having to attend his close friend's funeral in about a week," Tony tells us. I start coughing and desperately try to cover it up by drinking water.....but then choke more.

"You know who it is?" Steve asks me.

"Fury's best agent, of course I know," I tell him, fanning my red face.

"That's debatable. I'm legit always on missions and listen to him yet you're the best somehow," Natasha scoffs.

"You jealous of her?" Tony asks smugly.

"I mean I've grown up with him and Coulson so I've had time to get up there," I explain.

"Wait.....do I know the person who's funeral we have to attend?" Thor asks me. I simply stare at him, trying not to give any hint of who it may be.

Thor's face drops as he covers his mouth and leans back in his chair.

"Is it him?" He asks in a loud whisper.

"Who Loki? Is it Loki? Tell me it's Loki?" Clint questions in a hopeful tone.

"You better shut the fuck up before you get smacked the fuck up," I growl at Clint. He quickly looks down at his bowl and continues eating. I quickly eye Loki who, obviously, wasn't paying any attention yet listening to everything.

"Yes Thor, it's him," I reply.

"Thor knows as well?" Tony asks.

"Uh yeah he's a...mutual Asgardian," I answer, pursing my lips as I do.

"Loki...." Clint whispers to Natasha. I make a vine grow and whip his face.

"OW WHAT THE FUCK?!" He shrieks.

"You didn't shut the fuck up so you got smacked the fuck up," I tell him.

"Change of topic since we're on the topic of Asgardians, how come you age normally but you have powers without any form of event? Like how Bruce got his from radiation," Steve asks.

"And how you got yours from a bottle?" Tony adds. Steve gives Tony a look, causing me to speak up before any fights broke out.

"One of my parents were asgardian, the other human. That's all I know about them," I explained. I asked Heimdal what he knew about them when I was in Asgard but that was the only information he chose to provide.

"So how long do you age till you turn immortal?" Tony question's.

"Probably 21," Thor answers for me.

"Forever 21...." Steve mumbles.

"I mean not exactly but I guess," I shrug.

"You can sleep around for eternity," Tony says, lost in his thoughts. I wouldn't sleep around like Loki, sadly, does but even if I did it'd be for like a week.

"I wouldn't do that," I tell him.

"Then what? Sleep for eternity?" Natasha scoffs playfully.

"No! I'd go somewhere no one would be able to reach me and just watch life pass by myself...alone," I explain.

"Damn not even us? Don't you love us?" Clint asked, leaning towards me as he looked at me with puppy eyes. I pushed his face away before I replied.

"I do and I would let you guys visit but if I'm alone then there's no chance of me getting hurt," I mumble.

"I know what that's like...being hurt by the people you expect not to," Tony adds. I nod in agreement and so does Thor. A silence emerges between all of us and no one barely even moves, well everyone except Loki who still ate like normal.
