Curiosity killed the…God of Mischief??
‘So, I don’t know what you like dude, but try one of these, let me know and I can get it for ya in the mornin’ okay?’
Loki looked up. In front of him stood Darcy Lewis, the assistant of that insufferable Jane Foster. Granted, he had no real issues with the assistant herself, other than the fact she was always pestering him about something since he was send to Midgard to atone for his crimes. No matter how hard he tried to scare her away, nothing helped. She just wasn’t afraid of him.
She was a petite thing, barely reaching his shoulders. Long brown hair with curls, ruby red lips, dull green eyes and glasses. She had a voluptuous bosom and a sultry voice.
Loki pinched the bridge of his nose, rose from his chair, bend his head closer to her and snapped: ‘Leave. Me. Alone!’ Most people pissed their pants at this point. He had to give it to her, she didn’t even flinch. She just smiled sweetly at him and nodded. ‘Noted, coffee it is. Maybe you will become less grumpy.’ She turned around and walked away, leaving a very irritated God of Mischief behind.
Over the course of the next months however, there was simply no way to avoid Darcy. She was always working in the lab with Jane, or helping Tony. She kept her word as always brought him a warm beverage. She was kind and inviting, even though he often snapped at her. He saw her in de hallways, the kitchen, outside…everywhere and after a while Loki became intrigued. There was more than met the eye with this little mortal girl. He decided to investigate. Not because he cared, no way. It was simply good to know ones enemy. Or at least, their enemies assistant. Yes that was it. It had absolutely nothing to do with her being smoking hot or the fact that she was kind to him.
Determined to find out more about Darcy Lewis, Loki used one of his tricks to enter her room. That is its own way was strange. The girl wasn’t an Avenger, just an assistant. She got coffee, typed on the computer, pestered him and wasn’t actively involved with missions. She was very well liked, had a lot of friends and seemed to have a special band with the Tin Man. And despite all that, she lived in the tower at the same level as that fool of an American Hero, the Widow, the Hawk and the Soldier man with the metal arm. And even that guy liked her and he only liked the American Hero.
Loki opened the door and closed it behind him. Specious room, warmly decorated. There was a comfy coach, two chairs in matching colors, a lot of pillows. The walls were painted in off white. There was a painting with a lot of colors, which was quite beautiful. On the far side wall was a bookcase filled to the brim. A small kitchenette and a giant tv. Another door led to her bedroom, where he saw a four poster bed, and another bookcase. The girl liked to read. Clothes lay on the ground and Loki saw a sort of trunk, which held more clothes. He turned around and stepped back in the living room. Loki walked over to the bookcase and looked at the books. Sherlock Holmes, William Shakespeare, Tolkien, Dan Brown. On the bottom shelf he also saw books, with a short of shimmer around them. He squatted and tried to read the covers.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Standard book of Spells Volume 1, 2, 3 and 4. How to become an Animagus.
Spells? Loki’s mind was working overtime. The girl was a witch? She had magic? No way. He would have sensed that, wouldn’t he? Magic leaves traces, not only on objects, but also on people.
He heard a sound behind him. A sort of pop. He quickly rose, turned around, daggers in his hands and saw…absolutely nothing. Then he looked down and saw a small creature with huge batlike ears. It was dressed in what could only be described as a tuxedo, bowtie included. The creature wore children sneakers with little lights on them. Loki was not ashamed to say later on that his mouth flew open at the bizarre site. However, before he could speak or act, the creature lifted his hand and spoke in a high pitched voice. ‘You is snooping. Dobby most act. You is not to be snooping.’ With those words Loki was plunged into darkness before he even realized it.
