FILL: Wandering Child, part 1/?? anonymous May 25 2012, 11:19:47 UTC
I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes. /o\ the idea just really caught me. this first part is mostly ensemble, and I haven't written much ensemble at all, so it's a leetle clunky. it'll even out, promise ( ... )

Here's the thing: without the cape and all the leather and buckles, Loki is tiny. Frail, even, and the points of his collarbones look about to cut through the shirt ( ... )

There was a distinctly undoctorly wince, and Tony took his heel off Bruce's instep. "All right, look, let's not get all worked up. This is SHIELD, and clerical errors? Not beyond them. Let's get another set done. He's cooperating, right?"

"Yes," Steve said. "But if he is a kid --"

"XRAYS FIRST FREAK OUT LATER," Tony bellowed. "Am the only smart person here? No, don't answer that, it's obvious. We'll get an independent batch, hell, grab a portable one, we'll do it ourselves, see what's going on. Hour tops."

Steve looked like he'd rather be in another meeting with Fury. "Someone has to go with him in case. I'll do it, but I need a partner."

"I will," Natasha said, and efficiently crowded everyone back so she could stand up, ignoring Tony's wounded hiss. "Ready when you are, Captain."

"I hope you're wrong," Clint said.

Tony grimaced, watching them go. They were hilariously mismatched, but they had teamwork going for them and it wasn't like SHIELD was going to do any better. "Me too."

Tony's right, X-rays first freak out later.

oh, this is good, but the part about 18 kilos bugs me a little, especially on that height. magic or not, he would be dead.

this is the fault of my bad writing, sorry I was unclear! the armour itself weighs that, he doesn't. I'm figuring Loki at about 65 kilos-ish.

I took the armour weight from hiddleston's account of how much his costume weighed. (he said 'forty pounds' in interviews; I converted and rounded.) don't worry, the only way I'd write him as eighteen kilos is as tiny-babee-Loki. XD

For ... reasons, mostly to do with the fact that Tony's issues around child endangerment were close enough to his that they wouldn't be shouting at cross-purposes, Bruce showed them to him first, tucked in a conference room with enough lights and glass for Tony to cannibalise into a decent lightbox ( ... )

Other!Author!Anon here!
I am loving this other fill, please do continue!

I may have to stop reading your fill though, lest I start unconciously cadging from it! :P
Loved the way you described the scans, I had to start skimming at that point because I am in the middle of writing the same bits. XD (Conflicted writer/reader problems, eh?)

Bruce goes to find Clint while Tony does his best Obnoxious to ward off Fury from getting too interested in anything to do with anybody else ever. (Sometimes Bruce isn't sure Tony's faking, and he knows that Tony doesn't know either ( ... )

OP here!

This second fill is great! I think you've got most of the characters spot on, their reactions exactly what I would imagine them to be. And your dialogue...damn! I agree with the others, it's very easy to imagine Tony's voice saying all this witty lines.

I'll be sitting up waiting for more!:D
