Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Loki/Natasha,
Disclaimer: Not mine! Some comic backstory is incorporated into characterizations, but this is still primarily movieverse.
Spoilers/Warnings: Post-Avengers movie, AU to Thor 2. Some misogyny (internalized and society-driven) and vague references to past torture, nothing on-screen.
Author's Note: In the middle of characterization and plot meta discussions, my beta Jessy and I have discussed many a "What if?" scenario. I'm on maternity leave, with middle of the night wakings. This of course means anything sounds fantastic, but this particular idea really grabbed me, and it was written really quickly, even with the obvious distractions of having a newborn added to the chaos of a full household. Not a part of the Siege universe even remotely... you'll see why soon. :)
Summary: Frigga locked away Loki's memories so that he could start over again on Midgard, but nothing ever goes according to plan.
