Loki fanfic idea (that I’m too lazy to write)
tbf I’m not lazy I just have an ever lasting and very annoying writer’s block
Avengers. 2012.
Loki arrives at the Stark Tower and starts to work on the portal. (Un)fortunately for him, the tower isn’t empty as Tony’s sister lives there. He doesn’t know that and she takes him by surprise, using a frying pan to hit him on the head.
(ok this was to be funny, she’d probs use another weapon)
Now, she doesn’t really knocks him out but the hit was enough for Thanos’ brainwashing to go away enough for him to tell her his plan and how to stop it.
She sees evidence (in his behavior and on his body) of torture and carefully does as he says.
She then calls Tony and explains the situation. Although the Avengers are all skeptical of Loki’s explanations, Thor and Tony’s sister are Loki’s biggest advocates. Besides, he is in no state to defend himself. He asks about what he’s done + how many he’s killed etc.
Bruce looks him over and agrees with Tony’s sister, who is a doctor as well, that there are clear marks of torture on his body. Tony’s sister (I need to find her a name) is a psychiatrist and claims he’s displaying signs of PTSD. After talking with Thor about the last time he saw his brother and his suicide attempt, she also believes he’s seriously depressed.
Thor and OC manage to convince the Avengers to protect Loki from SHIELD and other governmental institutions and he hides in Stark Tower for a while.
OC helps him recover but he seems disinterested in redemption.
They become close.
Eventually SHIELD finds out they’re sheltering him and OC takes Loki in a hidden location where they will be safe.
They get closer as she helps him with his nightmares.
I’m not even going to try and write it cause 1) I can’t find the words rn 2) I already have enough ongoing series and 3) I’ll probs never finish it - but I still would love to read such a fic so if this inspires anyone, please hmu so maybe you can use this as a prompt or something -
