The same as it never was
If Tony expected Bruce to be excited about the fact that the formula worked without even testing it, Tony had been as wrong as he could be. After Bruce arrived he demanded an explanation and Tony told him everything he knew and the Doctor began to yell at him.
The genius was quite dumbfounded by that and unable to fight back and that was something, keeping in mind that he fought for his company verbally for years.
“You just kept it standing around! Hell Tony what did you think? That stuff was dangerous to humans and untested to merpeople you could have changed your own DNA if you touched it!”
Tony licked his lips trying to come up with something but Bruce wouldn’t let him.
“God Tony, apart from the fact that you probably scarred the boy for life, again! The formula was not yet tested and could be unstable; I don’t know what could happen to Peter if that is the case. This stuff could kill him!”
Tony looked to the floor suddenly really ashamed of his own stupidity. He was a genius wasn’t he? He was supposed to act smart.
“I am sorry.”
“Oh don’t apologize to me Tony you didn’t ruin my life.”
Tony closed his eyes and flinched as if he had been slapped. Damn Bruce was mean when he was angry, but well he supposed he deserved that. Sighing he looked up but whatever he was going to say was forgotten as he heard the call.
“Mr. Stark, Tony?”
Both men rushed to the bedroom and Peter flinched as they hasted inside. He still looked pale and tired but at least he wasn’t crying.
Tony sighed again, “hey kid, how are you?” Peter shrugged and sat up making sure his lower half was covered. Tony’s heart hurt as he noticed.
“I am fine I guess, but my hand hurts.”
Bruce smiled at him and sat down on the edge of the bed, “I will take a look at that, Tony please get me my bag from the living room.”
Tony wanted to say something but in the end he just nodded and walked outside to do as he was told. The genius sighed and picked up the rather heavy bag wondering what the two were talking about. Well not that he couldn’t imagine it.
Peter watched Tony go and for some reason he felt bad seeing his human so beat down. Not that he had any reason to; again it was Peter who had to deal with the consequences of Tony’s actions.
“Peter this might be a strange question but how do you really feel?”
Peter focused on Bruce, the older man looked at him with concern and the former merman felt thankful for having him as a friend and ally. The boy lifted his injured hand, “I wasn’t lying Bruce, besides this I am good, although slightly confused and a little weirded out.”
The man laughed and took his hand, carefully taking off the bandages. Peter saw him wince at how bloody everything underneath was.
“Weirded out, by what?”
“Well,” Peter began a slight smirk playing around his lips, “I guess the fact that I suddenly have legs with toes, which are pretty weird, and that I now have a human penis with testicles is a start.”
Bruce laughed again pulling the bin close to throw the bloodied utensils away, “ah yes I have to say that I was also confused about some of that when I was your age, but I guess for different reasons.”
The boy chuckled but knitted his eyebrows together as he looked at his hand. It looked like he was butchered and he hoped that his fast healing didn’t do more damage than good.
Tony walked in putting down the bag and his eyebrows became one straight line as he looked at the wound on Peter’s hand. For some reason Peter blushed and looked away, maybe he was embarrassed about his own clumsiness.
“Ah Tony great timing I need water and a cloth or something, I need to clean that so I can see what is under all that blood.”
Tony nodded and glanced at Peter before disappearing again. The boy sighed, “he feels so bad because of me.” Bruce raised an eyebrow as he put his bag on the bed and opened it, “Peter honestly he should feel bad, I mean he did this to you.”
Peter looked down where his legs were hidden under the white sheet, “ah well I kinda did this to myself, I mean I got myself hurt and had to go into the lab.” The Doctor sighed and pulled out a pair of tweezers.
“Peter we made that Formula and I went along with it because I thought he would talk to you about it, well he said he wanted to surprise you with it.”
Peter frowned, “surprise me?” Bruce nodded, “yes for some reason he believes that you two can only really be together if you are the same species so he wanted to give you the option to become a human.”
The boy looked down again. He could understand why Tony would be thinking that but it didn’t make this situation any better. Gods they would have so much to talk about.
Tony walked back in with a bowl of water and a cloth. He put both down on the nightstand, looking a little awkward and lost. Peter felt bad once again.
“Ah should I go and leave you two alone?”
Bruce picked up the cloth and wet it but didn’t answer, he simply glanced at Peter. The boy grabbed the sheets with is uninjured hand unsure of what to do. He didn’t want Tony to leave but he was also not sure if he wanted him to stay.
Tony sighed and ran a hand through his hair turning to the door.
“Wait!”
Both men froze in what they were doing and Peter blushed heavily, why did he stop him? The boy chewed on his lip, taking his time to continue.
“I uh you can stay if you like, I uh I might cry.”
Bruce hid his smile as he turned around and began to gently wipe off the blood from the boy’s hand. Peter winced and Tony was instantly at his side holding his good hand.
“I am sorry Peter,” he whispered and Peter sighed resting his head on his shoulder as he saw Bruce picking up the tweezers. That was not something he wanted to watch.
“I know Tony, I am just…scared.”
He could see the sad and hurt expression in Tony’s eyes but the human didn’t reply, he just kissed his forehead. Bruce picked out a tiny piece of glass and glanced at the two.
Well, he thought, fools in love. The classic.

Loki swam into the throne cave and Laufey greeted him with the biggest smile he ever saw on him. It was rather unsettling.
“Sire! We need to talk!”
Laufey tilted his head, “oh we do indeed I talked to Byleist.” Loki nodded, “very well I hope he is in serious trouble, anyway I am here to tell you that Angie and I will take our leave.”
The King’s smile fell and he sat up straighter in his throne, “will you? And why if I may inquire?” Loki smiled and this time it was him who looked like a shark.
“Because Laufey, you failed to hold up your end of the bargain, you promised me protection.”
Realization dawned at his face and he shot up into the water a sneer on his face, “you will not leave.” Loki chuckled glancing at the guards surrounding them, “so you, Laufey, King of Jotunheim will break his vow?”
His Sire shot towards him and Loki shrieked as his large hand wrapped itself around his throat. The prince’s eyes widened with fear and surprise.
“You think I will just let you go after all the trouble I went through? I made you Loki, you belong to me, you are mine to use as I please.”
Loki clawed at the hand that was squeezing his throat so hard that no water would get in or out. The King smiled and pulled him closer so his lips were almost brushing the boy’s ear, “ah and two things, if you try to escape I will hurt your mermaid and a promise given to a halfblood like you isn’t something I have to keep anyway.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bruce pulled five tiny shards out of Peter’s hand but didn’t have to do any stitches to close the wounds, he was sure that his fast healing would do the work. Tony stayed by his side the entire time until he was finished and comforted the boy.
Thanks to his time with Hydra he was terribly afraid of being treated medically, even by Bruce. Tony at some point began to mumble reassuring words into his ear to calm the trembling boy down, especially when Bruce insisted to take a blood sample. Peter hadn’t liked that but he had seen why they needed it so he allowed it.
Bruce then disappeared with the sample into the lab and the two lovers were alone once more. Peter sighed and rubbed over the band aid Bruce had put over the nick of the needle. Tony watched with a sigh.
“How about we eat something? How does Pizza sound?”
Peter smiled at him, “good, but I don’t want to eat in bed, can we watch a movie in the living room?” Tony smiled and nodded, “sure we can, I will order our usual and get your wheelchair.”
The boy smiled and pulled the covers back taking a look at his legs and wriggling his toes, “I can walk now, Tony.” The human looked at his legs, too.
“Jarvis, please order our usual pizza.”
“Right away, Sir.”
Tony walked up to Peter who swung his new legs over the edge of the bed. The boy was determent he could see that, but still he put a hand on his shoulder to stop him from getting up, “Peter you have no idea how to walk, you need to learn first.”
The boy shot him a surprisingly angry look, “I am a fast learner.” Tony licked his lips, “I think we should ask Bruce if that is a good idea.” Peter let out a frustrated noise and shoved Tony backwards.
The older man stumbled, surprised by how strong the boy still was, he kind of thought he was completely human now, but that was apparently not the case.
“You give me legs but refuse to let me walk! At least let me try!”
Tony swallowed as he heard how hurt and lost Peter sounded.
In the end, Tony had kind of given in to Peter. He had put one of his arms over his shoulders and helped him stand. Peter had been too amazed or scared, Tony honestly couldn’t tell, to protest.
At first the movement of his legs reminded him of someone whose legs had fallen asleep but at least he was able to move them separately. The two men slowly made their way into the living room where Tony sat the younger down on the couch.
He could see how pissed Peter was when he placed the wheelchair next to the couch but the boy didn’t say a word about it. Tony was glad about that because he was in no mood to argue. When the pizza arrived he called Bruce and the three of them silently munched on it while watching Ghost Busters.
Tony loved showing Peter these classic movies and the boy seemed absolutely absorbed into it. Bruce picked the olives off his piece of pizza before taking a bite, “Tony I think you should get Peter some clothes.”
Tony swallowed a huge piece of cheese before answering, “he doesn’t want clothes, it was hard enough to convince him to wear underwear but if you want him clothed talk to him.” Bruce raised an eyebrow at the man. Peter didn’t listen he giggled at some joke in the movie.
“You want to make me the stern parent?”
Tony shuddered, “Bruce, Peter and I have kind of a romantic relationship I don’t want to imagine me as something even close to a parent to him.” The scientist laughed, “alright, it was a joke.”
Tony picked one of his olives of his pizza and flicked at the other man who chuckled but caught the little black vegetable and placed it on Peter’s slice. The boy liked everything salty and even though both men thought the combination of olives and anchovies disgusting he couldn’t get enough of it.
After their meal, Bruce left but promised to be back early in the morning so he could do more research. Tony and Peter stayed behind on the couch in comfortable silence. At least until the movie finished.
Tony glanced at the boy next to him who stared blankly at the credits and suddenly he wondered, “can you read?” Peter blinked and looked at his human, “pardon?” Tony pointed at the words that flew over the screen, “can you read our words?”
Peter looked down, “ah not really, the letters don’t make sense to me.” Tony smiled at him, “well you are living with me now so I will teach you, just in case you want to stay human.”
The boy blinked and looked down on his feet, he was curling his toes, it seemed like a nervous habit to him. Peter licked his lips and took a deep breath, “you would turn me back?” Tony’s heart clenched.
He quickly wrapped his arms around the boy and pulled him against his chest. The older man buried his face in the crook of his neck inhaling his scent.
“Peter I-I have to be honest with you, I want to be with you and I would of course prefer it if you were human, but,” he drew a deep breath and tightened his embrace, “but if that makes you unhappy or hate me, I would even make a deal with the devil himself to turn you back into a merman.”
Tony was unable to see Peter’s face, but he felt how he wrapped his arms around him.
“Tony,” his voice sounded thick with tears, “thank you, thank you so much.” They pulled apart and both fools smiled at each other before they leaned in to kiss one another.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Loki fumed and Angrboda watched him with a raised eyebrow. The prince picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the wall feeling a little smug as it broke in two from the impact. The mermaid remained unimpressed.
“Didn’t you say you had a plan?”
Loki glared at her, “yes but apparently I didn’t see the major flaw in it.” The girl raised an eyebrow in question.
“Laufey was never willing to keep his promise.”
Angie sighed, “could’ve told you that, the King is not known to be rather honourable.” Loki glared at her but he took a deep breath, “yes, yes but the good thing is I am also not bound to my word anymore so we can try to escape.”
Angie crossed her arms in front of her chest, “we?” Loki nodded slowly, “yes, we or do you want to stay with the males and get married to, I don’t know, Byleist?” The mermaid wrinkled her nose, “good point, let’s get out of here.”
Loki grinned, “very well getting out of here is already one of the hard part I mean this boulder is too heavy for us to move.” Angie frowned and got up from her seat to swim over to the blocked entrance.
She knocked on the solid rock and Loki watched a little confused. The mermaid turned around and shrugged, “I can move it, I moved heavier things.” Loki gaped at her, “are Jotuns stronger than normal merpeople or is it just you females?”
Angie smirked and again took her place her fins flapping lazily in the water, “most of us are stronger than our males even us smaller ones so I guess you Aesir are just really weak.” Loki nodded and swallowed as he made a note to himself never to piss Angie off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter didn’t know it felt so good having the other man like this. He was straddling Tony and though the sensation was a little weird at first he liked the position. It made it easy for him to kiss and explore his body.
Peter smiled as Tony let out a gasp as he kissed his neck and down his chest. His hands roamed the body of his lover and he was delighted to fell a certain hard thing pressing against his backside.
“Do you like that?”
Tony grinned and pulled Peter into a kiss, “you bet I do.” Peter laughed and pulled free lightly scratching the human’s chest. Tony purred and the former merman laughed.
“Stop doing that.”
Tony sat up and kissed Peter’s nose, “what? I am not doing anything.” Peter giggled before he yelped as Tony lifted him off the couch carrying him bridal style.
“I want you in my bed Peter.”
The boy shivered at the husky voice of the human and nodded, putting an arm around his neck. Tony quickly carried him to the bedroom where he placed him on the bed before stripping down.
Peter watched with a smile, he would never tire to stare at Tony’s body. The human slowly crawled on the bed still wearing his boxers and Peter licked his lips in anticipation. He was already excited about what was to come.
Tony kissed him again and this time it were his hands that roamed the boy’s chest. Peter watched as they went lower and lower until Tony hooked two fingers into the waistband of his boxers.
Peter nodded as Tony gave him a questioning look and the human pulled them off and threw them aside.
It was a little weird to look at his lower body but Peter would get used to it, at least that was what he hoped. Tony would still do his best to turn him back, Peter knew but he was no magician that could do things with a snap of his fingers.
Suddenly he was pulled back into reality as Tony caressed his tights and his breath ghosted over the tip of his now human cock. It wasn’t much different from his old one just a little shorter but therefor not as thin anymore.
He had to admit he liked the look of it.
A moan escaped the boy as Tony briefly licked the tip and his hips jerked up involuntary. He didn’t have any control yet and he blushed even harder because of it.
Tony chuckled, “eager aren’t we? Well I wanted to ask you Peter, how would you like it if I took you this time?” The boy swallowed, “i-it seems like my lower body is still really sensitive so ah…will it hurt?” Tony sighed and stood dropping his boxers to the floor before reaching for the lube.
“Do you want it to?”
Peter quickly shook his head; of course he didn’t want that, he was terrified of the thought of getting hurt in a way like this.
“Then it won’t,” was all Tony said before he knelt back down between Peter’s legs to rub his tights. The boy liked how that felt and he began to think that those two pale, stilts were not as bad as he originally thought.
Tony watched his expression and waited for him to relax before he wrapped his fingers around Peter’s cock pumping it a few times. The boy moaned and Tony smirked, “put your legs up a little bit and spread them, yeah just like this.”
Tony coated his fingers in lube and carefully rubbed Peter’s entrance without applying any pressure. Peter shivered from the cold lube but didn’t protest, he just went stiff as a board. Tony sighed, “Peter if you don’t want to I can stop.”
The boy quickly shook his head, “no! I mean don’t stop, it looked…you looked like you were having a great time when you rode me, I-I want to try it.” Tony nodded and kissed his knee, his goatee brushing over the sensitive skin.
Peter chuckled and pulled his knee away, “that tickles.” Tony grinned and continued rubbing Peter’s hole but also began to litter the inside of his tights with kisses.
The boy was torn between laughing and tensing, in the end he settled for laughing. Tony grinned against his tight and slowly pushed a finger inside. Peter stopped and tensed up but he didn’t make a sound.
Tony sighed again not sure how he should approach this situation. He wanted to pull out but Peter quickly grabbed his wrist, “no, please just give me a moment.” Tony nodded and gently caressed his tight.
An idea sparked in his mind and he began to lick Peter’s now flaccid cock. Peter blinked before he let out a moan and relaxed a little. Tony smiled and sucked in the tip and it hardened under his care.
Peter bucked up and Tony took this as a cue to slowly move his finger. The boy didn’t even realize he was moving as he threw his head back and moaned loudly as Tony took him almost all the way into his mouth.
Tony moved his finger deep inside the boy and slowly out again while grabbing the base of his cock and slowly letting go of it to lick the tip with the broad of his tongue. A shiver went through the boy and Tony noticed how he curled his toes.
Feeling a little more confident he added a finger and slowly pushed in, giving Peter all the time he needed to either adjust or stop him. Peter groaned and looked down at Tony, “p-please, do that again.”
Tony chuckled, “that?” He again licked Peter’s sensitive cock and the boy bucked up again, clenching around Tony’s fingers. The human smiled rather pleased and began to move his fingers searching for his lover’s special spot.
Peter breathed heavily and Tony was happy with the reaction he got from the boy. He was relaxed and aroused. The human slowly pumped the younger’s cock and moved his fingers in as deep as possible.
His fingers brushed Peter’s prostate and the boy jumped letting out a loud breathy moan. Tony chuckled, “ah there it is, how do you feel?” Peter swallowed trying to find words, “hot.” Was all he got out and Tony smiled, leaning down to kiss him. It was like he always imagined and he loved every second of it.
Tony smiled at Peter, “another finger and I think we are ready for the next step, what do you think.” Peter chuckled weakly, “I ah I don’t think I am able to think at all.”
Both laughed and Tony scissored his fingers open before pushing his thumb in, too. Peter let out a needy sound that very much delighted Tony as he worked him open his other hand still slowly pumping the boy’s cock.
Tony slowly took his hand away to pour a generous amount of lube on his cock. Peter looked up at that and Tony hated how his brows knitted together as he watched him.
“Do you trust me?”
Peter swallowed and nodded, “yes, I do.” Tony smiled grabbing his cock again and leaning forward to kiss him, “then please, don’t look like that I will do my best to make you feel good, even better than I already are.”
Peter nodded and laid back, taking a deep breath before giving a thumbs up. Tony pulled his fingers out before pressing the tip of his own cock against the slick hole, easily pushing in the tip.
Peter tensed up immediately, but after a few soothing strokes on his tights he relaxed and Tony slowly pushed in, one hand still on his cock to overshadow the discomfort with pleasure.
“You are doing good Peter, how do you feel?”
“Ah weird, kind of…full b-but it doesn’t hurt.”
Tony smiled and bowed down to kiss his chest before moving in deeper and kissing his lips, “good to hear, now look at me please.” Peter did lift his head a little and even managed to smile at his human.
They shared a look full of love and adoration before Peter wrapped his arms around Tony’s neck to pull him into a real deep kiss. Tony began to pump Peter’s cock in sync with his still shallow thrusts and the boy moaned loudly against his mouth.
“Gods Peter you feel so good, do you-do you want to get on top?”
The boy shook his head, “n-no keep doing that I-I want to be spoiled.” Tony chuckled and nodded biting his lower lip before pulling out a little more and pushing in all the way. Peter threw his head back moaning loud enough that, had Bruce still been in the Lab, he probably would have heard it.
Tony groaned and put all his will into not spilling too soon and not slamming into the boy. He tried to keep his slow pace concentrating on making this as comfortable for the boy as possible.
Peter gasped and dug his nails into Tony as he felt the tension rise inside of him. Tony moaned, “oh that is kinky.” Peter raised an eyebrow and Tony laughed, “don’t ask just enjoy.” He rubbed one of Peter’s nipples until it was hard and the boy groaned and arched his back.
“Can ah can I go faster?”
Peter nodded, “y-yes please.” Tony chuckled at how breathless he sounded and he began to pick up the pace. He was still going slow and careful but the little speed he picked up already had an effect on the boy.
Peter squirmed and gasped, grabbed the sheets and bit his lips as he began to instinctively meet Tony’s thrusts with the movement of his hips. It felt great for both of them but Tony knew that if he delayed his release any longer he would explode.
“Shit Peter, I-I don’t think I can hold it any longer, gods do you mind if I come inside?”
Peter moaned and shook his head, “no, I want to feel it all.” Both moaned and Tony swiped his thumb over Peter’s tip a few times and together with a few well aimed thrusts the boy let out a hoarse sound as he came all over his chest.
Tony watched and the sight of the boy being in such utter bliss pushed him over the edge and he spilled his seed deep into him with a loud moan. With the last bit of strength Tony managed to pull out and lay next to Peter and both panted and fell asleep with their hands entwined.

So I took so long to uptdate because I am trying to finish my other fiction and I wasn't able to do both this time so this sorry chapter is all I got for your right now and I don't know when the next one will come
Please accept my apology by presenting you this welll...teaser? For a fic I plan to post when I have more time to write.
My treasure
All Peter wanted to do was to save his friend and secret crush Lizzie, what he ended up doing was losing his virginity. How the one thing led to the other is quite an interesting tale but Peter would blush forever if someone asked him for it.
The village Peter lived in was located far off any big city, hidden between mountains and forests. Still people travelled far to come to them for it was said that their elder could see the future and cure sicknesses.
But like every place their village had a dark secret, one that was well hidden from outsiders and children alike. Once every five years a young girl, a virgin would be sacrificed to the one who protected their village.
It would be random, a lottery in which every girl at the age of sixteen had to participate in. Peter had always wondered what happened with the girls that disappeared but he had always been too young to understand. This year however he and his friend turned seventeen and Lizzie was forced to participate.
The young children were told that the “winner” of the lottery would go to a far off land and marry a handsome prince, it was easier that way. Now however Peter found out the truth as Lizzie was crying in his arms.
“Today they will give me my last meal at the feast and then tie me to a post on top of the pine mountain and then I will be stolen.”
Peter always wanted to hold her in his arms like this; he just always hoped that the circumstances would be better. He sighed and held her closer, ignoring the guard that was send by the eldest to watch over Lizzie. Had he not been there he would have suggested to her that they would just take each other’s virginity.
Oh god that sounded so weird even in his own thoughts.
They parted because the older women were gathering and urging Lizzie to come with them so she could be dressed and made up for the feast. Peter only let her go after squeezing her hand one last time and sighed.
He walked home and it felt like he was moving through water, everything seemed to go slower and he felt like he couldn’t breathe. His aunt was busy weaving a basket she would sell at the market. It was their main income and earned them just enough so they could survive.
May looked at him with a sad expression, “are you alright sweetie?” Peter sat down on the floor next to her and rested her head on her shoulder, “Lizzie is going to die, how could I?” His aunt sighed, “we actually don’t know what happens to them you know, a few of the women actually came back.”
Peter lifted his head, his gaze hopeful but May’s expression was clouded, “though they are never quite the same again.” The boy slumped down again and let out a long sigh, “this is not fair.”
May cradled his head and nodded, “yeah it isn’t but believe me this is better than the alternative. We actually tried to get rid of this custom but only one week after we failed to present a sacrifice there was a big fire that destroyed half of our harvest and forest, I was very young back then but I remember the terrible fire. So we need to do this.”
Peter shook his head, “what is this beast? Maybe we should just try and kill it.” May looked at him and chuckled, “oh Peter, stop it you are no hero material, you are my sweet boy who cannot even kill a fish.”
The boy blushed and looked away, she was right; he was and would never be a hero. That would just be silly.
