ALL FOUND: looking for a few specific fics

[txnnyc.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for some fics that are Loki-centric. I only have a vague recollection of a specific scene from each. Hoping someone will have a better memory...

1. Steve/Loki—They're secretly married and during an interview, Steve's wearing a wedding ring, so they go into damage control. I think they end up bringing Loki out and he's been helping the Avengers, so they try to gain some support. **This is actually the same as below, or at least a part of the same series, making it Tony/Loki: Nothing Will Cage Me Any More by FujiDawn http://archiveofourown.org/works/992044**

2. Either a Steve/Loki or a Tony/Loki where Loki slowly works his way into their lives. I remember a Christmas scene where each of the Avengers receives a very thoughtful gift from Loki. I think Steve or Tony gets a healing stone that will heal anything and eventually saves their life—maybe Tony, something to do with his heart/arc reactor. **Just found it: Nothing Will Cage Me Any More by FujiDawn http://archiveofourown.org/works/992044. The summary was "It had taken one second of distraction for Loki to escape." But it's basically Loki escapes to Earth, sets him/her self up with a few identities and keeps running into the Avengers, particularly Tony Stark.**

3. Tony/Loki where they met when Tony was young and stayed friends throughout. I think Tony gets invited to visit Asgard. I don't think that any of the movie plots came into play. I'm pretty sure it was a series on AO3. **I'd gotten this mixed up a bit. It was actually young Natasha and Tony. The story is THE LITTLEST VALKYRIE by Bluetoast http://archiveofourown.org/works/1513667. Loki adopts a young Natasha after discovering the Red Room. Natasha and Tony meet when he is 5 and Loki is working with Howard Stark. She asks every year on her birthday that Tony be allowed to visit, but Odin refuses. It's incomplete, last updated in July 2016. Fingers crossed that it continues. It's very well-written and even though it's a hugely different timeline, the events of the Avengers movie happen in some way or another.**

4. Loki is de-aged and Thor brings him to Avengers' Tower. I remember Frigga comes with chests of clothing for young Loki, who prefers Asgardian clothing, and gold for Tony for housing them. I think it was a WIP. **Just remembered! Redemption (Start It Over Again) by hotchoco195 http://archiveofourown.org/works/1085425 **

Thanks in advance!

re number 4, is there any chance that that is a story where the mind healers revert Loki to an age before he is damaged by abuse and everyone is shocked when that reverts him to a really young age so it's decided to raise him in Stark tower?

That sounds familiar, but I actually found #4 this morning. It's Redemption (Start It Over Again) by hotchoco195. Odin takes partial responsibility for Loki's behavior and turns Loki back into a child with the option of staying on either Asgard or Jotunheim, but Thor suggests Midgard and takes him back to live with the Avengers. There are frequent visits from Frigga. http://archiveofourown.org/works/1085425

This is not quite nr 1, but there is similar scene in Supervillain Honeymoon by Potboy (if you don´t know about it, read their fic "A kindnes repaid" first and "What Happens in Alfheim...Stays with You the Rest of Your Natural Born Life by startrekfanwriter" last.)

Thanks! I know those titles well—they're some of my absolute favorites. What Happens in Alfheim... is hilarious. I think I remember more about #1—it might be a part of a series. I'm going to go through a couple and see it it's one of them. It's #2 that's driving me mad. I feel like I should know it. I wish you would sort your AO3 history, not just your bookmarks.
