darling, you should see me in a crown

It could be said that when aspiring superheroes-to-be are dropping like flies right and left, Loki picked a really horrible time to be captured. OrHow the God of Mischief, regardless of his actions, may never quite escape the expectations that come with his name.

This is a role reversal AU that really takes the shit out of me. The general idea of the universe is that all the villains are now heroes, and all heroes are villains. I apologise beforehand for any sort of out of character moments because I really know nothing, and I mean /nothing/ about Marvel canon. The team resembling the Avengers here are the Cabal, best known for its formation before the Siege events. The Cabal consisted of Doom, Osborn, Loki, Frost, Namor and the Hood; I know absolutely nothing about the Hood so he is replaced by Amora and Skurge. I also would like to warn for a slightly 'choppy' feel to this fic. I'm trying out a new style, you see, and am hoping for its success. To clarify any doubts: eventual Tony/Loki.
