1) Tony mentors kids building robots and 2) NY portal sends Tony to back-in-time Asgard

[ladyhatshepsut.livejournal.com]

Another case of losing stories in the shuffle. I've got two stories where Tony Stark is the focus that I can't seem to find again. The first has Steve finding Tony in a class room or lab where he's mentoring a bunch of younger kids who're building a bridge or roller coaster time structure of Legos. When it collapses he makes correction on the blueprints. When the session is over an assistant (the same one who escorted Steve to the right room) brings in cake and ice cream. In the second story, Iron Man doesn't make it back through the portal in the Battle of New York. Instead he lands in Asgard, practically at Loki's feet, hundreds of years in the past, when Loki is just a young boy. He's able to hide Tony at first but later finds Tony a forge and he becomes an armorer whose work is in high demand. Thor knows of his find work, but Loki and his mother teach him enough magic to change his appearance. Thor recognizes his work in the sword Tony carries when he comes back to the team at the tower some time after New York.

Darn it, the one with Tony mentoring kids who are constructing with Legos is SO FAMILIAR.

But I haven't found it.

It's Things Unseen (That Are Captured on Film) (http://archiveofourown.org/works/536146/chapters/951957).

That's #1. Thanks, guys.

Yes! I have it saved as part of the Toasterverse. I was looking for a one-shot, my mistake.

Thank you!

Now I have to re-read it. :^)

Oh. I reread it, and it's not the one with the Lego Mentoring. 'Thing Unseen' is the one where the team and Steve in particular, see the videos of Tony's first experiments with flight in the Malibu mansion, and Steve does not think it funny at all.

I remember the Lego Mentoring enough to be sure that's not it-- Tony was at a school? teaching an...engineering? class and letting the students make mistakes and learn from them. Steve was looking for Tony and found him there.

The scene with kids is in chapter 2.

“Jarvis? Will you tell me where he goes on Tuesday nights? Rhodey said that he had an appointment, but I can't find anything about it in any of his- Will you tell me where he is?” Steve asked.

“Of course. He's where he's always threatening to take Dummy. A city college.”

ok, thanks. I don't know how I missed that! I appreciate your patience.

The video of Tony is chapter 1 of "Things Unseen...) while the Tony and kid engineers with a supply of Lego scene is chapter 2. This story is part 5 of "In Which Tony Stark Builds Himself Some Friends...) by scifigrl47. I got no results in my search because I was looking for "Legos" not "Lego." Again, thanks to all for the help.

And I'm still searching for two Tony & Loki focussed stories...

Thank you so much. My living complex of 60 households wifi will drop with no notice so I have a tendency to download a lot of stories under one story idea on one page, meaning they get lost in the shuffle and I end up here again going "where the hell is it?"
