Loki's Return(The Avengers)-Moon/Lady

Elizabeth nodded smiling at him.”Yes, lots. And I’m sure you’ll like it, we’ll get pepper to plan it. She’s girl, she’ll know how to explain it.”She said “ohhhh well, you are having his child. You should try and marry him.”She giggled before nodding a little. “Sometimes.”She said thoughtfully before looking up at him, a slight worried look on her face before calming, realizing that no matter what, no matter how common or rare it was, her mate loved her. Elizabeth turned staring up at thor with wide eyes, “You pulled off a doll’s head?How dare you!”She said with mock outrage teasing them both before looking up at thor, kissing his cheek.”You can hold mine. I’ll let you hold them.”She said looking amused.
 
Loki smiled a little. "i don't want Pepper to plan it!" he growled, his eyes narrowed. he found her almost as annoying as he did Tony. "i want to plan it, i'm better at it than she would be anyway. she's only good for meetings and sucking tony under his desk." he growled before he flashed her an all too evil smirk. "well, we'll have Thor explain the multiple marriage thing." he decided, Thor grinning a little. "i will most assuredly explain to Loki that he is basically you and your wife's maid." he promised, Loki snickering as he glanced at her. "see, both wives are for breeding with." he explained. "but the first wife is meant for social gatherings and showing off and the like. while the second, and sometimes third wives are meant to clean the house, care for the children, and wait on the husbands every need... it's horribly archaic." he grumbled. "i hate it. we will not be having a second wife..." he paused. "unless you want one." he decided. "i won't stop you if you want a second wife, but i don't want a second wife." he promised. "i have no need for one anyway." Thor snickered and leaned down to whisper in her ear. "Loki will only ever remain loyal to you." he promised her with an impish grin. "but he doesn't understand human culture, so if he buys you a stripper for your anniversary, don't hold it against him, alright?" Thor clearly had the upper hand when it came to earth culture. unlike Loki, Thor knew exactly what gettign married meant. "but i don't WANT Thor to hold my babies! he will... he will INFLUENCE them!"
 
“Yes, I like that. Tony would do well cleaning house.”Elizabeth said sounding amused before flushing a little as she looked up at loki, looking unsure for a moment before shaking her head. “I already had one person want someone else besides me in the middle of our marriage, I would like to be the only one for you.”She said blushing a little at the demand before giggling at thor’s words a little. “I will, though I’m sure we’d both enjoy that, for the night.”she said amused before laughing at loki’s words, “And influence them to do what?”She said looking amused at the idea he was so worried about thor.
 
Loki smirked a little and nodded. "and cooking, changing diapers. it's basically a slap in the face to ask him to be a second wife. it means that all he's good for is making babies and cleaning house." Loki admitted with a smirk. "most second wives are very low on the social hierarchy." he admitted with a shake of his head. "there are exceptions of course, all of Odin's wives are exceptionally respected, because he married them for their power and political influence as well as their beauty and intelligence..." he scoffed. "at least, that's what he claims." Loki admitted with a shake of his head. "you will always be the only one for me." Loki promised her, kissing her happily before he glared at Thor. "he will make them stupid hammer hurling neanderthals!" Loki hissed, Thor bursting into laughter at that. "i want my children to be INTELLIGENT!" Loki complained, Thor still snickering. it was funny, really funny that Loki thought stupidity was contagious. "anyway, i have the food that you asked for Loki. Helblindi is quite delighted that you're pregnant, and would like to arrange a meeting with you. they do need a king after all. and i have Tony on standby waiting to be you're carry boy. Clint will be going with for added protection against whatever might come up. not that it will, but he'll keep the crowds at bay at least. oh, and i told Tony that you've been eying up his suits, so if one where to go missing don't be surprised if he accuses you of eating it." Loki had to laugh at that. "shopping first, then i'll consider dealing with Helblindi."
 
Elizabeth smiled as she leaned into loki’s arms giggling a little at his words. “No, he wont. He gets to hold his nieces and nephews.”She said smiling softly as she looked at him, snuggling close. Before nodding. “Lets go shopping then.”She sighed looking tired at the idea.

When they got to the store Elizabeth swallowed hard, stepping closer to loki, even with tony and clint running corral and keeping the crowd at bay, being in new York, where loki was well known, was enough to make her feel overwhelmed as everyone stopped to gawk at the woman who was willingly with him. “Cant we just order all this stuff?I’m sure tony could deliver it…”She muttered looking up at her mate, holding his hand tightly.
 
Loki huffed, crossed his arms, and sulked but nodded his agreement. he would let her make the rules if she so wanted. he wasn't much for making the rules anyway, he was much better at breaking them. "fine." he grumbled before brightening at the thought of shopping. he hummed happily as they headed to the store, where they would meet Tony and Clint. he seamed completely impervious to the stares. "what? order? what do you mean?" he asked, looking baffled. "oh look at this crib! it would be gorgeous!" Loki cooed, garnering even more shocked looks. "do we need two cribs, or just the one?" Loki asked her, looking a bit confused. "i mean... we're having two, but some people put them in the same crib..." he admitted, frowning a little as he noticed all the gaping people. "Buzz off! i'm baby shopping!" he ordered, and the crowds scattered. how they could be so terrified of a man who had just been gushing over a crib was beyond anyone's knowledge, but Loki went right back to gushing. "it's so soft. babies have delicate skin you know." he informed them all imperiously. "i won't have second rate crap for my children!" he said this more to Tony, since it was Tony's money they where spending. "Tony! buy this crib!" Loki demanded before pausing. "buy two cribs." he decided. "even if they sleep in one crib, if they start getting nasty to each other they can be separated. if they start yanking on each others hair or something."
 
“I mean…never mind.”Elizabeth said looking amused at loki’s reaction, relaxing as she focused on the man in front of her instead of the crowd. “two.”She said looking amused before giggling. “It is soft.”She muttered softly as she bit her lip to keep from laughing at the thought of him informing them of something they’d all known. “I’ll make sure it’s the best things loki.”Tony reassured though he looked a little pale, a little disturbed at baby shopping for his own kid. “Yes, that would be good.”Clint said smirking, looking at loki.”Why do I have a feeling you and thor were those two kids who had to be separated?”He teased his brother shaking his head in amusement.
 
Loki grinned happily as he nodded. "you better!" Loki stated, narrowed eyes at Tony. "this is half your fault you know!" he grumbled before leading them on to look at cradles and baby clothes. "we should use cloth diapers." Loki commented suddenly. "it's more gross than the disposable ones, but it's better for the baby's skin. plus we can wash and reuse them." Loki admitted happily. "with my magic back online... see what i did there? i made a Tony joke... it won't be hard to keep the diapers mostly ick free." Loki promised happily before he grinned at Clint. "oh i was always yanking on Thors hair. used to drive my mother mad, but Thor loved it. at least that's what...." there was a pause and then. "that's what Odin used to say anyway." loki admitted, a tone to his voice as he looked around the store. "oh LOOK!" he stated in delight, looking at a hanging carosol with hanging elephants and teddy bears. "it's so pretty! Tony we need two of these too! OH! it spins all on it's own!" he stated, clearly delighted with his discovery. "and it lights up a bit so they won't be scared of the dark!" he grinned happily, turning as the sound of running reached his ears. a man had just run into the store, wild eyed and angry. "You destroyed everything i live for!" the man raged, raising a gun and firing twice before anyone could stop him. the first bullet missed completely, lodging into the crib Loki had wanted to buy... the other struck him in the chest and he choked at the sudden shock of pain as he looked down and saw red blood spreading across his favorite shirt. he did the only thing he could think of, he collapsed to the floor and wrapped his arms around his belly, protecting the unborn in case the attacker shot him again.
 
Elizabeth wrinkled her nose a little at the mention of diapers before nodding a little. “Well, I’ll let you take care of the diapers then.”She said snickering a little before nodding. “its good to see you making jokes.”She said smiling at the tony joke, amused as she walked with him, nudging him a little at the tone in his voice, looking at him worriedly.”You okay?”She muttered before laughing hard at his reaction to the carasol. “Don’t worry loki, whatever you want, you get. Though I don’t see how a kid is going to be scared of the dark. Aren’t they to young?”Tony said looking amused as he watched before turning, moving towards loki even as he was shot,barely realizing that he was both shoving Elizabeth behind a crib and crouching next to loki, pressing a hand to the wound to slow the bleeding, “Loki, use your magic and slow the bleeding. Now.”he ordered trying to talk to the man even as he shifted to shield the unborn child, needing loki to move his hands away, glancing up to make sure Elizabeth was still hidden and that clint was taking care of things.

Clint fired the arrow hitting the man’s hand to make him drop the gun before crossing the room, holding the wickedly long knife against his throat, “Don’t move. Just stay right there.”he growled, having after the battle of new York that if he ever ran out of arrows he was screwed, so he’d started to carry a shorter range weapon to use.
 
Loki grinned. "sure, i don't mind." he promised with a chuckle as he pressed his nose to hers with a chuckle. "i'm always making jokes." he teased with a grin. "it's just that i haven't hit upon your level of amusement until now." he teased with a grin. "dry wit and sarcastic humor doesn't seam to amuse you much." he admitted with a chuckle. "of course babies can be afraid of the dark!" Loki stated with a glare at Tony. "Fenrir wouldn't sleep without a nightlight even hours after being born. he's scream for hours if there wasn't a light." Loki admitted with a sniff before everything went to hell as he was shot. he went into shock almost immidiatly, and for a moment he couldn't understand who was pushing at his hands or what they wanted. "no!.. no don't..." Loki pleaded, a choked sob falling from his lips as he found hands pressing against his chest, making it hurt all the more. he could only be glad that no one knew about the baby in his womb yet. they couldn't hurt the baby too badly if they didn't know it was there. of course, if he died... Magic curled around him and settled onto the wound, but the bullet was still inside of him, and his magic couldn't heal that kind of damage. he needed a hospital, and he needed it now. "Liz..."
 
tony cursed quietly as he realized loki wasnt healing and cursed even more when elizabeth eased around the crib to crouch at her mate's side."I'm here loki, I'm here."elizabeth whispered holding his hand as she looked up at tony with wide frightened eyes."liz,you're going to have to stay here." "what?wh-?" tony stood even as his suit unfolded from his backpack and he picked up the wounded asgardian,"because he needs a hospital now and I cant carry you both."tony said sharing a word with clint before leaving.

Clint already calling natasha and bruce to come and take the panicked woman to the hospital, looking worried as she sat in the middle of the floor and cried. He hoped the others would hurry, and that this moment of happy shopping wouldnt be the last time he saw his brother,
 
Loki was cold, and frightened. there where noises al around him and he wasn't sure what was happening anymore. all he could focus on was keeping his belly protected, the baby inside protected with as much magic as he could keep there. doing everything he could to keep his baby safe. he cried out in agony as Tony picked him up, trying to strike at whoever was picking him up, but as his fingers struck metal he realized who it was. Iron man... he relaxed, sagging into the metal arms, leaving nothing but a puddle of blood, and a distraught mate. Natasha and Bruce arrived quickly and Bruce gathered the sobbing woman into his arms while Natasha helped Clint deal with the idiot with the gun, whispering in the man's ear. whatever she said had the would be murderer going as pale as a ghost.

it took Bruce only ten minutes to get Elizabeth into the hospital, where they waited in the waiting room, Thor pacing back and forth. not sure what a Gun was exactly... but he knew the devastation they could cause. Loki was lucky though, the Doctor informed them as he came out, looking tired, but pleased. the bullet had missed all the vital organs, and something had stopped the bleeding. they had stitched him up, and while he would be week and sore for a while, he would make a full and complete recovery. that was when Helblindi appeared, striding into the waiting room with great gasping pants that showed he had run there. Thor greeted the man and they spoke in hushed whispers in the corner so the doctor wouldn't hear them. Helblindi seamed completely unaware of the stares he was receiving, and not just because he was blue, had horns, and was half naked.
 
Elizabeth looked relieved to hear that her mate was going to be fine though looking annoyed at the sight of helblindi. While she knew the man was loki"s brother but she also knew that loki wasn't totally okay with the man either. Not sure what to think,she slipped away while helblindi was talking to thor and walked down to lokis rolm and slipped inside,moving to the edge of the bed."loki?"
 
Helblindi looked as if he was explaining something to Thor, who was nodding, frowning in concentration as he listened to what the 'blue demon' was saying. neither man noticed Elizabeth leaving, but Bruce, who was listening in on Thor and Helblindi did, and followed her. Loki was laying pale and still on the bed, his stomach was glowing a soft green, the green of his magic. "Helblindi was explaining this." Bruce commented softly. "Loki has settled himself into a semi conscious Coma. so long as he perceives a threat to his baby, he will remain like this." Bruce admitted. "all his magic is going to repairing the injury, and keeping the fetus safe and content. Male Jotun pregnancies are exceptionally fickle, too much stress on the baby and it could miscarry. this process of 'magical coma' protects that from happening. Helblindi doesn't think Loki will wake up until he's mostly healed. which should be in a few days... sooner if we can get him to a very cold place. Helblindi suggests filling a bath with ice-water and keeping him ice cold and submerged will help his magic heal him faster."
 
Elizbeth had been on the verge of panic,before calming.at the bruce's words.slipping her hand into loki's she relaxed smiling a little."thanks."she muttered glad he'd told her instead of lettinf her think something was wrong."we'll get tony to take care of moving him. Privacy of healing at home would be better then this,and tony can afford to foot the bill."she decided.

Which was what he did. Not that he got to see the man who was supposedly carrying his child. And despute her humanity elizabeth had become so rabidly overprotective of her mate you'd think she was jotun. Suffering only thor,and reluctantly helblindi to get near him. Because one she couldn't carry loki to his bath on her own, and because helblindi was the one person who knew best how to help loki.

And while clint and the others wanted to see loki, they also weren't trying to upset the pregnant woman anymore then they had to,equally afraid what the stress would do to her or the child she carried.
 
Loki slept for two days, in which Helblindi insisted Loki be kept as cold as possible. he even used his own magic to create an arctic icebox in an unused storeroom where they could keep Loki when they had to take him out of the ice-bath. water wasn't very good for open wounds after all, and too much would make the injury worse. while Helblindi was there, he explained a great many things about Loki's 'habits' that where actually instinct. like Loki's desire to dominate was a Jotun thing, Loki knew he was 'all powerful' and wanted to prove it and when he couldn't, it caused great agitation. Loki's desire to have shiny things too, was a Jotun thing, who would collect shiny trinkets througout their life until they found a mate, they would then use that glittery 'den' to impress said mate. there weren't a whole lot of glittery things on Asgard, and it explained why Helblindi was wearing so much gold. it was a show of his status, power, and availability. Bruce was suspicious of Helblindi, until he saw for himself how fast the wound was shrinking. only when there was only a half inch hole did Loki's green magic dissipate from his belly and focus on the remaining injury. Helblindi promised that Loki would be awake in a matter of hours, and true to his word... Loki did, opening his eyes with a sluggish blink. "he's going to be incredibly confused for a while." Helblindi explained to Thor and Elizabeth, keeping his distance. he didn't want Elizabeth to attack him again. "his brain is basically resetting itself from the coma. it's kind of like having a concussion, or being drugged. it won't last long. the night at most. he should be completely fine by morning. get him to eat as much as you can, he needs to regain his energy stores. feed him the blue fruit first, the one that The Man of Iron says looks like a spiky ball." it did, it was perfectly round, and covered in short, thick cone like spears. you cut the spears off, squeezed them, and ate the white seeds that popped out. it was about the size of a person's head, and the rest of the fruit was pierced and drained of a white syrup that was turned into a wine. the seeds where often dried, and turned into something very similar to coffee, only much stronger. eating the seeds raw was very good for replacing depleted energy, or for keeping a person awake and sober during parties or meetings.
 
Elizabeth nodded as she eyed the two men warily,as if trying to decide if they were a threat. When loki was up and moving she'd be ashamed of herself for treating them like this,but until he was she was just to scared for him to care. H
picking up the fruit she sat on the edge of the bed and smiled down at loki."loki,sweetheart,ih have something you need to eat. Do you think you can do that for me?"she said her tone calm and gentle
 
Loki blinked rather stupidly at her, confused. aware of who she was, but unable to understand what she was saying. he ate everything she set to his lips though, quite eagerly. Helblindi suggested letting Loki drink the syrup from the fruit as well and to feed him both until Loki wouldn't eat anymore. with each seed the size of a grape, it was rather impressive how many he ate. he mumbled a bit of nonsense and kissed Elizabeth, patted her belly, rubbed his own, curled up on his frozen bed and went back to sleep. "he'll probobly wake up in two hours or so looking for more food..." Helblindi explained. "you might sleep with him, it will comfort him, he might have nightmares." Helblindi warned. "having you close will sooth his mind and ease any lingering fear he might be feeling." he admitted, looking relieved that Loki was alright. "i'll be going back now that Loki is well." he stated. "if the King needs me, he only needs to call my name." Helblindi promised, bowing before heading out to step into the Bi-Frost, where he would head back to his home and reassure everyone there that King Loki was fine.

as told, Loki woke up two hours later, slipped out of bed and started making a mess as he looked for more food. Thor brought another Gous, the blue spiky fruit, and gave it to Elizabeth so she could prepare it for Loki, who was still acting slightly drunk. the injury was almost completely gone though, the only thing that remained was the metal stitches, which would have to be pulled out, and a scab. his magic had settled, finally, and he looked to be making a full and complete recover. "Elizabeth." Loki breathed once he'd eaten his fill. "i love you." he mumbled, nuzzling her neck and head and hair, sniffing and rubbing on her like he was some sort of giant cat. overly affectionate, he seamed to only want attention and cuddles, and once he got that, he slept till morning, and woke with a groan and a scowl at the window. "someone kill the sun." he demanded, as he did, almost every morning.
 
"cant do that...talk to thor..."elizabeth muttered her custom return as she shifted snuggling into him.and while she was just human,and therefore shiivering from sleeping on his frozen bed she'd become hysterical when thor and clint had tried to put her in a day bed to sleep, so theyu just let her stay where she wannted to, pressed close to loki.

Bolting upright after a moment she stared with wide eyes down at her mate before pouncing on him and hugging him tightly."you're never allowed doing that to me again!never!"she ddemanded the stress finally breaking and she started to cry as she clung to him
 
Loki groaned at her 'witty comeback' as he always did and laid there for another long moment. normally he'd get up after five minutes, take a wizz, and then go downstairs to start demanding breakfast for both him and Elizabeth. instead, he was attacked. "ooomph! alright i promise!... what did i do?" he asked, looking confused. "what happened? the last thing i remember is baby shopping and then this great pain and my blood and then...." he frowned, struggling to remember. "that's it. that's all i remember." he admitted looking utterly baffled. "was i stabbed? how long was i out!? why are you crying!?" Loki was quickly approaching panic, thinking something REALLY bad had happened, like someone had died, or he had lost the baby, or HE had died...
 
elizabeth sniffled sitting up to look at him,even crying she looked beautiful. Sniffling her wincing realizing she was making him panic."you were shot...hurt badly.but both you and the baby are fine, i promise."she reassured laying back down and snuggling him."and just a few days. You had to heal and helblindi said it was normal to sleep this long."
 
Loki blinked a little. "shot? what's shot?" he asked, looking baffled. "you're talking about those Goon things that Agent Romanoff uses right?" he asked, scowling. "i don't think i like her anymore. Goons hurt." he admitted, rubbing his chest where there had been a life threatening wound only days before. now it was nothing more than a flaking scab. there wouldn't even be a scar left. "well, it wasn't that bad then. i've been out for weeks before." he admitted with a small smile. "Helblindi was right. i was in a healing Coma. i didn't realize it was a Jotun thing though, i just assumed it was because of my magic." he admitted with a shrug. "how are the others? Clint must have been terribly upset..."
 
"dont lie.you like natasha.its not her fault someone hurt you."she said still looking worried about him as she gently stroked his hair out his face her eyes widening slightly. "what...yes..well i guess days isnt that bad then."she sounded a little choked by shock, because she knew just how insnae she would have been if itd taken that long. Flushing scarlet she looked down ashamed now that he was awake of how she'd acted towards the others who cared about him."...yes he has..."she muttered fiddling with a piece of his shirt as she laid back down next to him not wanting to tell him that she had allowed no one but helblindi,and evenn him reluctantly to actually see loki since he'd moved home
 
he snorted a little. "i do like Natasha." he agreed with a sigh. "but only because Clint likes Natasha and wants to fuck her against the wall." he pointed out, smirking as he wondered what Natasha and Clint would do if they heard him say that. "well, i was a lot more hurt when i slept for the week. i fell into a well." Loki explained before he paused. "well... i was pushed anyway. broken back, two broken legs and i was impaled by a tree branch." he admitted. "if that didn't kill me, i doubt a goon could." he admitted happily before he grinned at her. "you haven't let anyone but Thor see me, have you?" Loki asked, sounding highly amused, and touched. as if her over-protectiveness made him feel all warm and happy inside. "come on love. let's get you out of here, it's freezing!" but he wasn't cold in the least, he knew she was, but he wasn't. actually, he felt better than he had in a long time. "and i'm starving! i hope they have some good food... i'm craving drywall again."

elizabeth snorted a little amused because she knew it was partly true. Loki liked the russian because clint wanted to screw her so badly that it was almost painful to watch him trying tp figure out how to not ruin everything in his need to have her. He wanted a relationship,but he knew natasha didnt.so he didnt want to have sex until he knew he convinced her otherwise. "true."she muttered amused before looking amazed and relieved,knowing he really hadnt been that hurt,despite being so scared for him."oh...yes that was worse then this."she muttered before going quiet for a moment looking away from him,sounding slightly ashamed when she spoke."...not thor...hellindi...needed his help making sure you were okay..."she muttered before nodding happily so cold that she was numb to it and stumbled as she got to her feet."lets go see the others."she said not realizing just how close she was to hypothermia,her lips even tinged lightly blue as her body struggled with having been sleeping on his frozen bed next to him despte helblindi's warning not to,she'd needed to be as close to him as she could
