“We live for millions of years, you’re a baby.” She made an amused noise, already crouching to dig up a new handful of metal from the scrap around her. “And I know because I just scanned you and compared you to the baseline data I have on other humans.”
She tilted her head as she watched him in her hand. “I’m Sparkplug. Well, I am in English. Is it normal for human babies to run around fighting villains in pajamas on this Earth?”

Peter huffed, lightly smacking the metal of the hand beside him. “Just ‘cause I’m not eighteen doesn’t mean that I’m a baby. That’s not how any of this works.” As she moved, Peter gripped her fingers, wary of falling.

“...no. It’s not. Most of us are out partying or doing homework or babysitting or maybe at work. But that’s not the point!” She seemed almost as flexible as the Iron Man suit, but there was no Stark branding on her. “And why are you scanning humans?”

“My need’s greater.” She finished off the metal in her hand, squinting down at him sharply. “Who. Who, not what and it’s rude to ask a lady’s name and not give your own.”
Sparky activated a scan abruptly, sweeping it over him slowly as she analyzed the results. “Supervillains, huh? And in your pajamas. Bold, for a baby human. Your vitals are all weird. You don’t match human baseline data–are you an alien in disguise?”

This was a lady robot, then. Okay. “I’m Spiderman. Now will you tell me your name?” He should probably have been running, or something. After all, the last time a sentient robot was around, the world had nearly ended. Again. 

“They’re not-” Peter huffed, eyes narrowing. “And I’m not a baby! I’m fifteen!” Oh, that probably wasn’t helping his case. “And I’m- I guess you could call me a mutant? Kinda? ‘Cause I was bitten by this weird spider, and now all my senses are turned up to ten and I’m a lot stronger and- why? How do you even know that?”

“It’s trash, kid. The stuff, not the pajamas. Which are totally pajamas.” Almost pointedly, Sparkplug took a bite of the scrap metal in her other hand. “Not that it’s your business what I’m doing with it.” She studied him a moment longer, one wing giving off a slow grinding noise as she tried to lift them.
“And what kind of crime do you fight in pajamas, tiny human?”

“Sometimes people buy things from scrap yards. Usually working car parts that are hard to find.” He pouted under the mask, and jumped a bit at the grinding noise from the...wing? Was that a wing? What was this-

No, he had to focus.

“Y’know... all of it. Sometimes small stuff, once took down a supervillain. That kinda stuff. But what’re you?”

Loki looked really nothing short of confused as the kid just… fed him information. No skepticism, doubt, or hesitation. He was just ready to help– to help him. Either Stark was really letting the city down or…
Oh, he wasn’t even an Avenger? How sad.
Loki sighed, dropping his face into one hand to pinch the bridge of his nose. “So do you even know them? Have you even ever met Thor-?”
Probably not. Another sigh, this one a little defeated.

He truthfully hadn’t meant to feed information to Loki- Peter just didn’t know when to shut his mouth sometimes. Whoops.

Still, when Loki held his head in his hands, Peter paused, biting his tongue. 

“Well... I’ve...met a few of them. Mister Stark, for one! And- and I didn’t really get to know them but I’ve met Black Widow, and- and I fought Captain America and this dude who turned big and then small in an airport, and Rhodey and the Falcon dude and someone Cap called Bucky but also we were fighting and it was a little busy.” Whoops, he’s rambling again. 

“I... haven’t met Thor, though. But I know what he looks like! ‘Cause I still lived in New York during the whole alien invasion thing and I saw him on the news. And since I’m in the city a lot, if I see him- I could just let him know, even if tracking him doesn’t work?”

It’s sometime past midnight when she finds herself scooping up an organic in the most ridiculous set of red and blue pajamas with a spider on the front. She hadn’t planned to run into humans, had been avoiding them for the most part while lurking around a junkyard repairing parts with inferior metal actually, but he’d shown up and confronted her.

And now here she was, holding an organic in pajamas.

“Why are you wearing those ridiculous pajamas?”

Well. This was... not what he expected when he passed by the junkyard.

Peter’s torn between fear and curiosity- this...thing appeared to be a...giant robot? And it was purple. The eyes on his mask widened and narrowed as he looked over it (her? He had no idea.) searching for some kind of logo, an inscription revealing who she belonged to- anything.

Pajamas- “They’re not- this is a high tech suit made by mister Tony Stark to help me fight crime!” A pause, and Peter mumbled under his breath- “’nd it’s not ridiculous. Why’re you digging through the scrapyard? Stealing’s illegal, you know.”

“It’s personal.”
The answer was reflective, if a bit impatient. But Loki hesitated, his long pale fingers drumming on his arm. “I do not intend to harm him. We’ve been on passable terms as of late.”
Passable, perhaps. He risked his life to save Asgard, and his brother, and apparently that had earned him some points.
And then the rest of the questions, which earned a roll of his eyes. “Check if he is in your system first, Spider… Man. Then I will answer as many of your pervasive questions as I have the patience for.”

“Passable? Is that good? I mean, I don’t really know what having siblings is like, so I dunno if that’s good.” 

Peter paused in his pacing. “I’m... not really seeing anything for him here? I don’t know if it’s ‘cause Mister Stark doesn’t want me to be bugging- hah, bugging- the other Avengers ‘cause last time I may or may not have been fighting some of them but I can’t see your brother.” 

Or any of the other Avengers, really. 

“Makes sense that he wouldn’t let me track the Avengers, though. ‘Cause I’m not really an Avenger. Just a superhero using a suit made by Mister Stark.”

Somehow Loki went through the next tirade of word vomit with yet more questions and not many more answers.
But he did have a direction, surprisingly, from the spider kid– Spider Man, somehow– who was just threatening him a few minutes ago. It had an eyebrow raising in curiosity and what could’ve been genuine surprise. Perhaps it was the ‘please,’ which somehow went a long way on Earth.
His arms folded over his chest, his eyes turning down. “I’d rather not unleash the mental energy of infiltrating the Metal Man’s facility,” Loki answered. “The suit tracker. …I am looking for my brother. I hear he was… out and about lately.”

“Your brother?” Wow, Peter really needed to brush up on his history. “That’s... Thor, right? I mean. he’s the only other god I know of that’s on the Avengers and I’m, like, ninety-nine percent sure that you aren’t related to any humans or anything- no offense!” 

“So. Karen it is then. Real quick, though- why do you need to look for him? Is everything okay? ‘Cause I’m sure Mister Stark would be willing to help him- not you, probably, but maybe him.” He’s searching through what he can on his HUD as he speaks, and he pauses to take a breath. 

“So what’s he like? Can he really control lightning? I was like, eleven the last time you were here and I’ve never really seen him in action. My.....aunt doesn’t like it when the superheroes are active. Usually means that something’s going wrong.”
