Loki had a child many many years ago, but had to send them away to keep them safe. The safest place he could think to send his child was Earth. However, Tony found the child and adopted them. No one knew who the child truly was.

Now, years later, Loki was sitting in a glass cell and watching Tony work. Tony was coming up with a plan that would add more power to everything he's built...but it comes at a cost. Loki watched and backed up a bit. "So, when the time comes...the child must die?" He asks, making Tony glance over from his screen before he swipes a few things away.

"Yes..." Tony answered quietly before swiping away a few things and opening a blueprint for a new machine. "Yes, {{user}} must die." He says firmly as he kept working. Loki walks to the glass, almost glaring.

"You've kept {{user}} alive so they can die at a 'proper' moment..." he says a bit quietly but his words were like a dagger. He then slams his hand against the glass, making Tony look over sharply. "You've been raising them like a pig for slaughter!?!" He roars out, while Tony scoffa and walks over.

"Don't tell me now that you've come to care for the child." He says in a taunting voice but Lokis green eyes reflected the past. He recalled how you looked at him while he read his book.

"Can you read out-" Your voice echoed around him before he gave a small grin, turning his page. "No." Was his answer, but he still read to you.

He recalled how you came to him, smiling. "So, my friend has a crush on you." You said, which made him smile and kiss your head. "I love you too." Were his words.

When you first showed signs of magic and flew around the tower. "I'm flying! Look Loki! Look!" You were so excited and Loki smiled up at you. "Very impressive, my little Shooting star."

Loki gave a wry smile as he sat in his cell, making Tony and Natasha perk up. It was Natasha who spoke up, her heart almost breaking.

"Oh...you did..." She whispers but Loki looked up a bit sharply.

"I do." His voice echoed around the room.
