"Did he really?" Thor asked, looking pleased. "i knew he'd like you." he admitted with a smile. "Loki doesn't normally give people things. he doesn't seam to even notice that other people exist to be honest. whose idea was it to give him the giant Teddy bear? it seams to work wonderfully, i wonder if he would take tot he smaller ones so well?" he mused, chuckling when James leaned into the touch like a cat. when Loki was having a very good day, he did the same thing. "Ah, alas. i believe Friend Tony is correct. Earth has many things much better than anywhere else in the nine realm." Thor admitted. "true you do not have magic, yet, but i believe you have solved any problems that not having it would cause us." Thor admitted. "Earth is still 'behind the times' socially, i think that's the word i'm looking for, but they are far more advanced than any of the nine realms where at this stage in their own development. the other realms greatly underestimate the people of Earth. it is like looking at a toddler and thinking it cute that it is looking at a book, when the toddler is actually reading advanced physics." Thor admitted, looking amused. "the other Realms will be greatly shocked when Earth starts vastly outstripping them." he admitted, smiling when Loki started shredding his meal instead of eating it and removed it from his hands and wiped them off, ignoring Loki's whining protests and set the watch in front of him instead and Loki happily returned to figuring out how it worked and what it was. "oh, Tony. here, i saved this one for you." he admitted, holding out a thick book. "i have no idea how far earth science would delve into magic, so i got you the base beginners. even if it's simple for you, it will be good to understand it from a magical standpoint." he admitted. the beginners book was bout the same as higher level physics for earth students. no wonder magic was rare, even in the other nine realms. you had to, not only understand how the world worked, but how atoms worked, how gravity worked, how everything worked and then learn how to manipulate said atoms, energy and physics forces to do things without trying to push them beyond what they could actually do. for example you could re-order the atoms into something new, but you still could not destroy the atoms or make new ones. it was extremely fascinating, deeply terrifying and as Bruce read from over Tony's shoulder, he felt himself getting both panicked and excited.
