Greeting a Kitten
"Come, let me introduce you!" Thor boomed, a large smile on his lips as he grabbed Tony and literally dragged him into the kitchen. He tried to stifle a smile at the look of concentration Loki had while inspecting his latest work. Though the look quickly faded into one of embarrassment when the teen realized he'd been caught. He quickly but with care placed the small cube down and stepped away from it, his face beet red.
As he watched a shy smile work it's way onto the young teen's lips, Tony mused that maybe this could work after all. Especially if the kid shared his love of technology.
"Man of Iron! Meet my brother Loki!"
"Nice to meet you kid, names Tony." Tony smiled at him, hoping he came off as welcoming instead of looking like he was going to run screaming to his lab any second. The kid seemed good so far, and with Thor vouching for him maybe Tony could survive this.
Pepper did say that he needed to be more social after all.
Thankfully it seemed he succeeded at least a small amount as the boy smiled softly at him and oh god why was he so adorable, it was like staring at a kitten.
'No wonder Thor's trying to hide him away.'
"Nice to meet you too Mr. Tony." Tony winced at that, of course jail bait also had to have a soft and lovely voice, because why it be any different? He groaned, why him? He hadn't been that bad since joining the Avengers, couldn't someone up there cut him some slack? He just knew it was going to be Hell keeping Loki safe, and dammit but he was way too sober for this. "Just call me Tony kid." He laughed nervously. "Anything else and it feels like I'm some old grump."
The teen blinked before nodding hesitantly. "Then please, call me Loki."
