"Okay I can't do this anymore. We need to be able to leave without someone watching Loki." Tony was angry. Angrier than usual anyways.

"Why should he need watching Stark? My brother is not a child, he merely made a mistake. Why not just forget about it?" Enter Thor, god of thunder and somewhat bonehead.

"Well that mistake ended up costing a lot of people their lives Thor. Innocent people, or have you forgotten that?" Usually mild-mannered, Bruce was all fluffed up like and angry cat.

"As if he needs babysitting, why not just stick him in that container or whatever? That should hold him, right?" Clint probably thought it was common sense, but Fury disagreed.

"I am not leaving him alone in this tower Stark. Odin entrusted us with the mischief god's care so we need to be responsible to that. I don't like it any more than you do Stark."

"Well I'm not gonna be the one that sits around and watches Loki every time the team goes out Fury." Watching this fight was grating on my nerves.

"Well, what about the girls. One of them could do it." Steve eyed Jane and I up, looking for a response.

"No way in hell spangles. I have a life. University, a minor social life, plus I get enough of you guys and this tower." Fire is the weakest word you could use to describe my anger. "It's not my fault he's here so why do I have to look after him?"

"Well, it's really no one's fault Darcy, it's just that the rest of us are kind of busy saving the world, and you two don't really how do we say, earn your keep."

"Anthony Stark I have had it up to here with your snark and attitude. Why invite us to live here if you expected us to pay? Isn't billionaire in the description somewhere?"

Fury interrupted, ruling with an iron fist as usual. "I like that. I'll upgrade your security clearance and you two can watch Loki while the rest of us are busy saving the world."

"Fine." It was the first time Jane had said anything, but the ice in her voice could freeze Steve all over again. We were not hearing the end of this.

"Thank you ladies, now if you don't mind I have to delay more council stupidity so excuse me." With a flourish Nick Fury strode out of the room high up Avengers Tower.

"Really Steve? Thank you so much for that." Apparently punching Hitler did not prepare this guy for a woman's anger. Jane continued, "Now I have to watch over the younger brother of my boyfriend while making sure he doesn't destroy the world? How the fuck am I gonna do that?"

Rising from his armchair, Tony gestured towards the elevator, "Allow me to demonstrate."

After a lengthy tour of his defense lab and a lecture including "Push button, things happen." Jane and I were well versed in the tech that would save us if Loki were to suddenly flip his shit and try taking over the world. There were amped up stun guns for his demi godly might, and horse tranquilizers loaded into a wrist portable launching device, and of course the standard shoot to kill if anything got too out of hand.

"The most interesting though, is this baby here. It works on Thor, so I can only assume the same for Loki, but it should cancel out any Asgardian magic voodoo crap he'll try to pull. In fact, it should render all mischief powers completely useless. Any questions?" We shook our heads. "You start now, Fury wants us in a meeting."
