       "So let me get this straight....you want Loki. You're Loki. Tried to kill us all Loki. Threw me out a window Loki...'God of Mischief'. Alien criminal Loki to what? Date Riley? Our Riley? Kindest soul ONLY 15 Riley. Wouldn't swat a fly Riley?" Tony confirmed. Thor simply nodded, lips pursed bitterly as he tried to ignore the words used to describe his brother.

"Why in God's-" 

"Amen." Steve mumbled softly.

"name do you think that's a good idea?" Tony finished ignoring Steve and his Christianity.

"My brother is.....lonesome..." Thor began, cringing internally, "He isolates himself. Avoids people. Refuses to socialise with his friends and even his own brother.-"

"He has friends?" Tony snapped, arms folded and tone mocking.

"Wasn't he adopted?" Clint asked, confused.

"You really are a bird brain..." Wanda teased.

"Guys...that's bullying-" Steve began.

"Do not worry Mr. Rogers-Stark I am sure everyone here is well aware it is physically impossible for a human to have a bird's brain." Friday reassured, being the ever so helpful A.I.

"He doesn't like associating himself with people." Thor continued, ignoring the conversation that broke out, "Yet, there he was...having a very normal conversation with uhm...what was her na-RILEY! Right?"

"We have no idea if the conversation was 'very normal'. For all we know they could've been talking about world domination or how animals will out live humans and rule over the earth like they used to!" Tony argued.

"Why would that be a conversation they would have?" Thor asked softly.

"Riley's interested in those kinds of things." Wanda replied, noticing how Tony seemed to only get more pissed of by the sound of Thor's voice.

"Perfect! They even share the same interests! A match made in-"

"Thor I swear to God." Tony grumbled, ignoring his husband's sigh of disapproval, that would be another conversation for another time,  "So what if he doesn't talk much? He talked to me. You don't here people randomly shipping us."(Cue Deadpool Lenny Face)

"Then he threw you out a window." Clint reminded, "Don't see Riley falling out of the sky."

"That was a misunderstanding." Tony explained.

"Past aside, my brother needs a mate."

Tony practically choked on his saliva, face going red with anger and veins popping out comically.

"A Mate?!" He asked(yelled really)flabbergasted.

"Why of course. No one should die alone."

"What about the other parents?" Wanda asked softly, taking a step back from Tony and his rage.

"I'm still unsure of that. It seems to be a touchy subject for him."

"And my dau-Riley is a touchy subject for me!" Tony began, walking up to Thor threateningly. "He's a criminal Thor. Not to mention an alien. And thousands of years old. He tried to rule us. Tried to kill us. Tried to kill you!"

"The past is the past." Thor shrugged.

"Listen, I understand, he's your brother, but he's done wrong. And we agreed to keep him as a prisoner. Nothing more nothing less." Steve soothed, trying to calm the tense air. Tony scoffed at that and glared at his husband.

"Hyp-o-crite." He mouthed to Steve. Steve blushed in both shame and anger.

"Bucky's different. He wasn't in his right mind." Steve defended, missing the way his husband shook in rage. Thor sighed and brushed his hair out of his face.

"My brother is simply misunderstood. He thought he was doing the right thing by....protecting you from yourselves. By ruling you. He simply did not understand how wrong his actions were."

"Misunderstood or not he was and is a criminal."

"I know it doesn't make it right but-"

"And Riley's like our baby girl." Tony continued.

"Yes, but Loki is my baby brother."

"Adopted." Tony reminded.

"Is it not the same for you?" Thor and Tony both sighed turning and walking away from each other.

"Listen, I understand. You want to protect her. She is your world, is she not? It is only the same for me. I do not want all of my brother's life to be miserable. Our childhood was favourable, yes, but Loki has not spent the most of his life the same way as I have. And I fear that he is not truly happy with the life he has lived 'till now. My brother-my brother needs love...and he seems to only be willing to accept the-the 'love' Riley has to offer him."

"No, Thor. It's not happening. You keep Loki away from Riley. In fact keep him away from everybody. End of story." Tony declared before leaving to most likely deal with Riley. Thor sighed and rubbed his forehead. That was not the reaction he had anticipated. He groaned loudly in annoyance. Humans truly were complicated creatures. 

Wanda sensed Thor's obvious frustration and wanted to help.

"Perhaps," She suggested, moving towards Thor as the others left, splitting up to finish whatever things they had to do, "I could check his mind for any ill-intentions?" Thor stared at her with hope-filled eyes already thinking of the best time to suggest the idea to his brother.

"And when none are found?"

"If I find none, I guess he can stay like any normal resident and perhaps...Tony will give him and Riley space to...mingle..." 

"YES!" Thor boomed, earning a small, fond smile to form on Wanda's lips(face???). He gave Wanda one big, toothy grin before running up the stairs to probably talk to his brother and get scolded. Wanda sighed and relaxed against the kitchen counter sitting and resting her head on the counter top. She had really needed to take better care of herself. Although, everyone that lived in the compound did, she supposed. She thought back to the previous argument. 

"Hyp-o-crite."

"Bucky's different. He wasn't in his right mind." 

God, Tony was still mad about that? They had dealt with Bucky and the Accords a few months ago. Almost a year. Her mind started to drift and one question popped up. 

  'What if it went differently?'
