Tony and Bruce had begun some idle chatter as they waited for the Asgardian family to finish what they needed to. The moment Loki touched his mind though, Tony paused, pushing back curiously to see if it really was alright for him to come in before he pulled away and moved through the door, Bruce a few steps behind. Looking over the family huddled together on the bed, he gave an unsure smile. 'Everything alright?' He whispered into Loki's mind, not wanting to ask out loud in case it wasn't. As he examined the others, Bruce hurried to finally check on Loki's vitals and readings, almost seeming to worry that if he didn't do it fast enough, then something else would happen.
Frigga gave Loki a curious look at his admission. "I suspected as much. There is too much silent between the two of you." She said with a small smile. Looking to Tony and Bruce as they entered, as if on cue, she continued to hold Loki's hand, seeming to be unwilling to move away as of yet. Watching Tony look each of them over in turn, she let out a breath of a laugh. "Do not worry Anthony, there is nothing to concern yourself with right now other than getting Loki to bed." She smiled.
In response to Frigga's words, Tony stiffened slightly, though he nodded. "Call me Tony....I don't go by Anthony." He said a moment later, almost looking ready to pout. Of course this made Frigga give another small laugh. This one that Loki had picked was certainly unique.

Tony’s eyes showed his curiosity about what they could need to talk about, but he didn’t question it there. When Loki said his name, the genius finally gave a little sigh and moved over to the empty side of the bed, leaning down to kiss Loki sweetly, a hand cupping his cheek. ‘I love you.’ He whispered through the bond. It really had put Tony on edge, seeing Loki so worked up. He knew the god was better now, knew that this could be the first step towards healing, but he hadn’t liked being unable to help him one bit. When he pulled away however, Bruce pushed Tony aside with an exasperated huff as he tried to finish Loki’s check-up. This only brought a chuckle from Tony and a pleased smile from Frigga. A few moments later, Bruce gave a satisfied nod. “You’re doing much better, even if it may not feel like it. Once you get back to the tower and we don’t have to use that jammer, then it should be a quick recovery from this point out. I’m going to keep you on an IV at the tower for a few days though, so we don’t have to worry about your vitamins or hydration. Bed rest for a few more days, and nothing straining for two weeks at least.” He said, giving Tony a pointed look with the last sentence as well. This only made the genius grin and shrug. “I certainly have no idea what you mean.”

“No you healed, but you weren’t healing correctly, that’s part of why you had the evidence still in the scans despite how long it has been.” Bruce explained. Tony smiled at Loki’s confusion, faceplate sliding back. “We aren’t, but I can’t leave this here with Fury either. Iron Man is mine…..and I haven’t really managed to perfect the autopilot for long range flights, only emergency ones.” He admitted. “Don’t worry, we can cuddle at the tower.” He smirked, kissing Loki’s cheek as he began to head out of the infirmary and towards the jet, Frigga following behind, mindful of Loki, as if worried Tony might drop him. Bruce had enough forethought to grab the jammer as he passed however, figuring they would keep it on until they reached the tower so any side effects on Loki would be handled under better conditions.

Tony smiled to himself at the soft noise he drew from Loki. He really shouldn't find an ancient god as adorable as he did, but when Loki was asleep, or when his guard was completely down, it was one of the words that always popped into Tony's head. He was sure Loki would see that eventually and plot something as pay back, but he couldn't help it. Listening to Thor, Tony shook his head slightly. "All you had to do was listen....it's really all he wants in the end, for people to at least hear him out." He mumbled. "And I'm not sure I saved him.....I think it's more like we stopped each other from going any further down the roads we were on. Both of us would have ended up dead relatively soon." He admitted. He knew they had both been about to implode, both had been nearing the point of no return, but they'd managed to stop each other and understand that there was no fixing each other, not really. Just patching up what you could and moving on.
