Must Love Dogs (and Snakes, and Half-Dead Grad Students)
Normally even the SHIELD meeting room would be silent and dead at three in the morning, but on this particular evening it was occupied by the director, one of its top agents and a college grad student, all of whom were preoccupied with the emergency news update playing on the projector screen.
“-even now, it’s impossible to estimate the damage done to the greater city area, but thanks a group of super-powered individuals calling themselves the Avengers, the threat-now identified to be a possible mutant by the name of Loki-has been successfully defeated, although sources say that he has not yet been taken into custody. The Avengers team appears to include billionaire Tony Stark and historical legend Steve Rogers, better known as Captain America, but the other members have yet to be identified. Witnesses claim-”
Jormungand scowled slightly more than usual and muted the sound. Hel let out a low whistle.
“Wow. Woooow,” she said, gaping at the devastation the news camera was sweeping over with raised eyebrows. “Does our dad know how to throw a major bitchfit or what?”
Fenrir hummed in agreement, adjusting the cuffs of his jacket. “When I agreed to help you with this ‘Avengers Initiative,’ Jormungand, I’d assumed the team’s test run would involve someone a little less…close to home.”
Jormungand pinched the bridge of his nose and turned off the screen with an angry flick of his wrist. “If it could have gone down any other way, I would’ve welcomed it,” he growled. “I don’t know about you two, but I care about this planet too damn much to let anyone else screw it up.” He glared at his siblings. “Including family.”
Fenrir conceded with a slight nod. Hel snorted.
“Man, you guys get way too attached to things,” she said, fiddling around with her reclaimed iPod. Fenrir reached over and snatched it out of her hands. “Hey! Geez, Fen, the first time was petty. This is just lame.”
Fenrir slipped the iPod into his suit pocket and smirked at his sister. “Do I have to remind you who successfully reestablished Helheim as a self-sufficient bureaucracy so you could enjoy these first few years of your century-long vacation, Hel?”
Hel huffed out a sigh and rolled her eyes theatrically. “Okay, fine. Let’s save your stupid Midgard. Rah rah, human pride and Pop Tarts are awesome and people other than Jane are worth saving and stuff. Where do we start?”
Jormungand frowned. “Father’s not exactly known for letting go of his grudges,” he admitted. “Not to mention asking him to change his mind would mean revealing ourselves to Asgard, so our best hope is probably a damn good distraction.”
The three sat in thoughtful silence. After about five minutes, Hel gasped so loudly that both her brothers whipped out their guns and scanned the room for a potential threat.
