After Loki's attack on Manhattan, he is sent back to Asgard and is sentenced to imprisonment. Except the second Thor leaves and returns to earth by choice, Odin transfers Loki to the dungeons and brutally tortures him until there is nothing left of the Loki that everyone knew, and becomes terrified and overly submissive, hiding his scars and never opening his mouth to speak. When Thor returns seven months later, he sees this but is not told why his brother has become like such. In a panic, Thor decides to dump him with S.H.E.I.L.D and is kept under watch by the Avengers in order to get him away from Asgard. To everyone's shock, he is too busy being terrified of punishment to try anything. Tony's suspicions get the best of him and when he ends up trying to 'rehabilitate' Loki, he get's far more than he bargained for. --this is a reprint from my a03, so I will not be making any gramatical fixes on earlier chapters-- 2019 update: AH SHIT ITS AT NUMBER 1 IN FROSTIRON TAG HI EVERYONE! I swear I'm still working on this, please don't crucify me!!

Pepper left Tony, telling him the superhero gig was too much for her nerves. Loki hid on Earth after escaping Asgard, attempting to be normal. What happens when Fury asks Tony to find him, and how does it go from there?

Loki has been banished from Asgard. What happens when Tony finds him, injured and dying in an alley? Edit: 200+ views? Ahh thank you! /)-(\ I am sorry for all the errors I've been making! I type so fast I don't catch them ^^' Edit #2: over 450 reads!? Awesome sauce!

Loki is without his powers, or at least that is what everyone thinks. He has only small amounts of magic left within his body he conceals. He struggles with love for Tony who not only loves Bruce, but slowly begins to love Loki back. Bruce starts to crave more of Tony though some nights he spends them with Loki.

Heroes can't love villains.... Can they?

Loki's been imprisoned. However, the Avengers are trying something new: keeping him under house arrest at the Stark/Avengers Tower, initially, a less-than-pleasant arrangement for Tony.

It's been almost a year and a half since New York. Mr. Stark has been settling in his Mansion in Malibu, then Thor decides to pay him a visit and give Mr. Stark bad news. It's about Loki, never telling anyone Tony has feelings for Loki. Knowing the bad news he has to act fast and help. Then when he gets to Loki, will he tell him his feelings for him?

Certainly, the Avengers never thought a year after the devastation in New York they'd be providing safe harbor for the very man they'd fought so hard to defeat. But with an unknown enemy after Loki for knowledge of a deadly weapon, perhaps the old adage, 'Keep friends close and enemies closer' is simply the wisest course of action. And Loki isn't the only unhappy one. FrostIron.

After the events of Thor Ragnarok, Thor, Loki and the people of Asgard are forced to take refugee on Earth where Loki is once again introduced to the Avengers and the persistence attention from a particularly interesting mortal by the name of Tony Stark... **** p.s. I am ignoring the events and existence of Infinity War (also I obviously and unfortunately do not own marvel, any of the characters or quotes/lines used in this story nor am I talented enough to have created the cover image or any of the other art) I'd really appreciate any feedback so please leave a comment and/or vote :) **** #1 in #frostiron for a while in June 2019 but then I didn't update it and the rating slipped... and again in September '19! #1 in #lokixtony in October '19 woo! hell yeah, kicking off 2020 at number 1 in #frostiron and then again in February! **** "I love this book!
