How the Good and the Villain Saved Each Other

.Also, my name is Arta, nice to meet you. "

"Tony Stark," Tony introduced himself after heaving a sigh of relief, and raised his arm for a friendly handshake, but shyly took it back under the eyes of the elf full of doubt and disgust.

"Of course, I also think I should clean myself up," he looked at his dirty hands, and quickly added that Loki once said that elves are a race that loves clean and beautiful things. To win their favor, you first have to pass the appearance, "But just to discuss—can you give me some food first, I haven't eaten anything for at least two days."

The elf nodded and turned away for a moment, returning with a silver plate containing some berries and a small pie-like morsel, which he put on the table and handed to Tony A brand new white robe.

"This is the guest room, and there is a small pool outside, which is specially for guests to bathe," he said, "You can enjoy it slowly, and I will come back later."

=====================

When the blond elf saw Tony again, he was standing by the pool, his brown hair and beard were clean, and his face looked better, at least not as half-dead as they had just found him. He looked several years younger, and with those big eyes, he was as innocent as a cub.

"You look pretty good," the elf rubbed his chin, and commented pertinently, "you must be one of the good-looking people among humans, and I'm beginning to believe that Loki will like you—by the way, beard clipper It's very characteristic."

It sounds like Loki is a big fool who judges people by appearances, Tony thought, but another question came out of his mouth: "Can I go and see him now? He was not doing well when we were together."

"Of course," Alta said readily, "Elder Assange just ordered me to take you there, but Loki is still in a coma, and I don't think he can talk to you."

"Is he badly hurt?" Tony asked worriedly, while Arteta shook his head.

"I'm not sure," he replied in a lukewarm tone, obviously unable to understand Tony's restless mood at the moment, "but he is our old friend, the Great Elder will definitely do his best, and I have never I don't know of any other injuries that were so severe that he was helpless."

Tony's high-pitched heart eased a little because of these words, which made him finally have the mood to observe the surrounding environment when he followed Alta out of the guest room and walked across the garden to the ward.

This is a palace built on a hill. The houses are patchwork, tall and short, but all have pointed roofs, which look like the ears of elves.The air is warm and pleasant, filled with the fragrance of flowers and trees. There are blooming flowers and lush green trees everywhere. A meandering stream runs through it. The wind is so soft that Tony thinks of the kiss from Rocky.

They came to a tall arched door, which seemed to be made of stone from a distance, but when they entered, they found that it was a natural growth of a solid gray tree vine, with small red berries on it.Outside the arch, there were four elf guards standing solemnly. They were wearing light rattan armor, and their long blond hair was braided into beautiful and delicate braids hanging behind them. The spears in their hands shone shockingly in the sun. cold light.

Alta signaled Tony to stop, and then walked up and said something to the guards alone, turning his head and pointing to Tony several times in the process.Just when Lord Stark thought he would be turned away for some inexplicable reason, the two were let go, and the guards even nodded to him in a friendly way.But just as Tony brushed past those guys, one of them smiled at him, and the smile was so weird that Tony couldn't help touching his arm to calm the sudden goosebumps on it.

What the hell is that pointy-eared beauty thinking, laughing so disgustingly... Tony thought blankly, never expecting to use the word "disgusting" for an elf.They passed through the arch, walked through a not-too-long porch, and entered a rotunda, where there were corridors leading to four directions. Arta chose one of them, and continued walking with Tony.

It's like a maze here, Tony thought, trying to remember the path they had taken, and finally they arrived at their destination - there was also a blond elf standing there, who looked a bit like Alta, only it seemed A little more mature.Alta stepped forward and exchanged two elven secret words with him that Tony couldn't understand. The blond elf turned sideways and raised his hand to let them in, but his eyes on Tony became more meaningful.

"Sorry, is it my illusion? Why do I think he looks at me strangely? And the guard before?" Tony raised his eyebrows and asked his doubts, while Alta smiled.

"Since you claim to be Loki's lover, I think you have to get used to this as soon as possible." He replied in a rambling manner, and Tony vaguely thought that this might have something to do with the elf princess who once liked Loki, but Before he could figure things out thoroughly, he heard a burst of quick and intense arguments. In front of him, four elves stood there. They looked serious and slightly agitated. The one who was talking kept gesticulating with his hands. , seems to want to enhance the credibility of his theory in this way.

"The one in the middle is our Great Elder." Alta whispered to Tony, and then led him up, put one hand on his chest and bowed in salute. Tony also bent down like him, but his eyes were restrained. Can't help but look at the elf elder curiously.

It was a tall elf with a tall and straight figure, with jet-black hair different from most of the elves Tony had seen, with a delicate silver headband on it, his age could not be judged from his face, only his eyes It has been through many vicissitudes, as if it contains ancient wisdom.

"Alta, you have brought our guests." The elder Assange raised his hand to stop the arguments of the people around him, smiled and greeted Tony in fluent and standard English, "Mr. Stark, hello, welcome Come to Alfheim, the land of the light elves."

"Hello, Your Excellency Elder," Tony straightened up and greeted respectfully. He is a person who can easily control the big scene. The president of the United States does not know how many times he has seen, and of course he will not be stage fright. "For the life-saving of the elves Well, I am really grateful."

"You don't have to be so polite." Assange pointed to a wide round table next to him, motioning for everyone to sit down and talk.

"Listen to Alta, you are Loki's lover." Tony's butt touched the chair, and the elf sitting next to him suddenly said, he was the one who argued the most vigorously just now, with a pair of bright golden eyes, this kind of His upward mood undoubtedly added a lot of points to his handsomeness.

"Yes, that's right, I am," Tony replied a little numbly, "It seems that every elf I meet is very concerned about this issue, can I know why?"

The lively golden-eyed elf seemed to choke.

"Loki is a very good friend of the light elves," he replied, rolling his eyes, with a somewhat solemn expression on his face, "he has helped us a lot, and everyone here likes him very much and cares about him." He, of course, would be interested in his other half."

Tony nodded, noncommittal for this sounding reason, but at this moment, the elder coughed lightly, and said: "Mr. Stark, although it is a bit presumptuous, Loki is still in a coma and is seriously injured. So there are some things we have to ask you to determine the next treatment plan."

His serious tone made Tony panic a little.

"Alta said Loki wasn't seriously hurt," Tony took a deep breath, "Can I see him first?" In fact, he had to see Loki first, otherwise he wasn't going to answer any questions.

Assange sighed, turned sideways and pointed to the room behind: "He's right there, you can see it when you walk in."

Tony nodded, stood up and walked towards the room, full of fear of the unknown.He wanted to see Loki, but he was afraid to see him—he still remembered those hideous wounds, broken skin, and gray blind eyes, and he really didn't want to see those again, because it would make his heart ache so much that he wanted to die immediately .

Loki was lying on a soft bed, motionless, as if he had stopped breathing, but even so, he was still amazingly good-looking. This sleeping prince had a clear and clear skin like moonlight, and his lips were like a flower that had just left a flower. The petals, with the light shining through the white curtains, have a fragility that is shockingly beautiful.

Oh, Tony said in his mind, he was a god, but more fragile than I thought, like a flame dancing in an oil lamp that needs to be protected, because a gust of wind can blow it out.

He wanted to sit by the bed and talk to him while kissing Loki's forehead, but he was afraid of disturbing him, so he had to carefully stand in front of the bed, silently stroking his sleeping lover with his eyes.Loki is wearing a white robe similar to him, the only difference is that the neckline and cuffs are embroidered with complicated patterns with gold thread. This is the first time Tony has seen Loki wearing white clothes, which makes him look unbelievably clean, just Like the legendary unicorn that represents nobility and purity.

"He looks good, at least the wounds have healed, it must be your credit." Tony turned his head and thanked the Elf Elder standing by the bed, "But why hasn't he woke up yet?"

"Human beings, you always only know how to look at the surface," Assange shook his head, "the external injuries of the body are not worth mentioning, because sooner or later they will heal, what is truly terrifying lies in the inner injuries—— That blue cube is the Cosmic Cube, right?"

Tony nodded, trying to explain: "Something happened before. Loki had to use that thing twice. The first time he lost his eyesight. I don't know if the second time will be worse."

"I can restore Loki's eyesight, although it will take a lot of work, but it is not too difficult," Assange sighed, "The crux of the problem now is that the energy of the Cosmic Cube left in his body is too abundant. There is no channel to relieve it, nor can it be absorbed quickly, so it can only protect itself by dormancy. This is very dangerous, I don’t know how long he can maintain this state, maybe his body will be burst by energy in the next moment, and he will die unexpectedly.”

Although this is not a scientific category, Tony basically understood what he said. Just like the machine will explode after the battery is overloaded, the same is true for Loki as a container for carrying energy-"Is there no way?"

"We need someone who can channel energy for Loki." The elder stretched out his hand to straighten Loki's robe, with loving eyes, "Now the original magic power in his body is entangled with the energy of the Cosmic Cube. Only by understanding Someone who knows where Rocky's magic goes and how it works is the one who can really help him through."

☆、Ch.42. Love rivals

"You mean God Queen Frigg?" Tony immediately thought of someone.

Assange nodded with a smile: "It seems that you do know a lot about Loki."

"But this is far from enough," Tony smiled wryly, "The Nine Realms are not connected, how do we contact Frigg?"

"It's not a problem to get in touch with Frigga," Assange said with a frown. "Alfheim and Asgard have special contact methods. The difficulty is that the Rainbow Bridge has not been repaired, and it is difficult for even the Queen of God to cross it." Space came here, since you are sure that the blue cube is the Cosmic Cube, I think I have a way to use it to send Loki back to Asgard."

"But Rocky doesn't want to go back," Tony retorted almost immediately, "if he did, he wouldn't choose to come here and ask you for help."

"I understand, that's why I hesitated," Assange sighed, "Although Odin didn't make Loki's actions public, he just announced that the second prince fell off the Rainbow Bridge, but I still know some inside information Yes. Loki's desire to destroy Jotunheim is indeed too bold, but out of the original intention of protecting his own country and people, this is not so unacceptable, I can't figure out why the father of the gods is so strict with him."

Because Loki is a picked child, Tony added silently in his heart, "So, the only thing we can do now is just wait?"

"It's less risky to maintain the status quo than to act rashly," the elder said solemnly, staring at Tony, his wise eyes seemed to have been looking into his restless soul through his eyes, "I will immediately let people -"

Before he finished speaking, a burst of fragrance of flowers and fruits suddenly wafted into the room, and then, a stunning elf girl walked into the room. Her skin was as white as snow, her hair was as bright as gold, and her face was like the morning sun. She is as delicate and beautiful as a rose, and even though Master Stark has traveled all over the flowers for many years, he has never seen such a lovely person.

"Elder Assange—" The girl bowed slightly to greet the elder.

"Princess Emiya—" the elder nodded back, "Why did you come here?"

"I heard that Loki fell in love with a human, so I wanted to come and have a look." The girl wrinkled her nose mischievously, and then turned to Tony: "Are you the human that is rumored to be with Loki?"

And you are the little princess who was rumored to have loved Loki since she was a child?Tony pondered this in his heart, stepped forward generously, took the girl's tender little hand, and gently pressed a kiss on it.

"Yes, that's me," he replied in his usual bearded tone, "and you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."

The elf named Emiya giggled, whether it was amused by Tony's compliment, or because the beard made her delicate skin itchy.

"You are the most beautiful of all human beings I have ever seen, especially the beard." She smiled and said, staring at Tony with bright eyes, innocent and charming.

"It's an honor, you are already the second person who praised me so much today." Tony shrugged and stroked his mustache. "Maybe they can lead the fashion trend in the elf world."

Emiya was amused again. Maybe the elves don't know how to tell jokes, which made her smile very low.

"You're so cute," she winked at Tony, then took Tony's hand and shook it back and forth like he was an oversized teddy bear, "come with me to the garden and I'll show you my private collect."

Tony was a little confused about the situation. It stands to reason that they should be rivals in love, but now it seems that Her Royal Highness seems to be more interested in him, and even tempts him intentionally or unintentionally.

Yes, temptation, of course Tony Stark knows what it looks like when a person intends to seduce you. He has met too many such people, and he also has a lot of experience in how to refuse temptation.

"I'm sorry," Tony gently broke free from the girl's hand, and leaned closer to Loki's hospital bed without any trace, "Look, my boyfriend is lying here, he's not in a good condition, I have to Stay and watch him to be at ease."

But Princess Amy was not moved by this reason.

"Please," she begged, her tone soft and lovely, "with Elder Assange here, Loki will definitely recover well, and you don't need to worry at all."

Most of the good-looking people will be willful, because people are always willing to love them, pamper them, and try their best to satisfy all their wishes, so Tony has long been prepared for Amy's persistence.

"But I think he can see me at the first sight when he wakes up," he imitated the heroines in some film and television works, put his hands on his chest, and chanted in an aria-like tone pretentiously, "I will never I'll leave him, even for a second; he's like my air, I can't breathe without him."

The corners of Emiya's mouth twitched, showing a disgusted expression, she turned her head and stopped looking at Tony, but waved to the door, "Come on, sister, come and see this guy, you must imagine It's not like Loki will fall in love with this kind of fleshy person."

Just when Tony was curious about who she was talking to, another girl walked into the room slowly. She looked very similar to Emiya, almost like two shells of a clam, but it gave people the feeling So different--compared with her, the stunning Emiya was like a dusty pearl, or a frivolous wildflower.

"Hi, I'm Eliza, the daughter of Valenor the Elven King," she said with a smile, and Tony even felt a white light coming out of her body, like a bright tulle, even hanging on the The jewel between her brows is not as radiant as she herself, "Tony Stark, isn't it?"

"Yes, Tony Stark, I think I'm—" Tony repeated unconsciously, God, please tell me it's not her, no one can compete with an enhanced version of Marilyn Monroe, Not to mention that she is also of noble birth and gentle temperament.

Eliza didn't say anything more to Tony, just nodded to him, and then handed a wooden box in her hand to Assange: "This is the 'Heart of the Forest' collected by my father. Useful."

The Great Elder took the box and sighed softly.

"Thank you, my child," he said, reaching up to run his hand through her shining temples. "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Eliza forced a smile, and turned her head to look sadly at Loki who was lying on the bed. With just one movement, Tony understood her intentions—the white and slender neck was drooping, as if a swan was mourning his impending death. departed lovers.

Love cannot be faked, let alone hidden.

Tony bit his lip unnaturally, this was probably the first time in his life that he felt ashamed.

Don't be discouraged, he secretly cheered for himself, after all, you are the one who has Loki's love.

"Want to stay?" he said suddenly.

"Excuse me?" Eliza turned her head and looked at Tony suspiciously, obviously not understanding what he meant.

"I mean, I'm going to stay and take care of Loki, do you want to come with me?" Tony explained with a smile, suddenly admiring himself from the bottom of his heart.

Eliza's eyes widened, and Assange and Emiya were also a little surprised.

"I—I do want to stay," the elf princess readily agreed after regaining her composure. "Thank you, that's very sweet."

"You're welcome." Tony showed a smirk—Tony Stark never evaded problems, on the contrary, he liked to face difficulties and solve them cleanly.

Emiya pouted unhappily, muttered "Loki is not yours, you don't have the right", and was dragged out by the elder: "Let's go, dear little princess, I have to give Asgard sent a message, it would be great if you were with me."

Now, there were only three people left in the room. One of them was lying on the bed, and the other two were sitting at the head of the bed and one at the end of the bed, as silent as two sculptures.

"You and Loki—have you known each other for a long time?" Tony scratched his head, and finally decided to break the awkward deadlock. Sometimes he is still very gentlemanly—of course, only sometimes.

"Yes, we have known each other since we were young," Eliza replied immediately, as if she was greatly relieved, "There was a great war between the Aesir and the Vanir Protoss. During the most intense period of the war, Frigga took the two The young prince was sent to Alfheim for shelter, and that's when we became playmates."

"What was Loki like when he was a child?" Tony asked curiously. He knew Loki because their souls were too similar; at the same time, he didn't know Loki. He really knew too little about the life experience of this god.

Eliza smiled, a gentle and bright smile, but with a hint of sadness in retrospect.

"It's almost exactly the same as now," she said softly, looking at Loki's pale face, as if she was talking to herself, "It's just that every move always reveals that it's cautious and cute."

Tony's heart throbbed suddenly. The young Loki didn't know the hidden life experience, didn't know that he was not the biological son of Odin and Frigg, but he was still sensitive to the difference between himself and Sol, so Then you have to pretend to be cute and sensible, and try your best to please others.

"What about you? How did you and Loki meet?" Eliza asked back with a smile after recovering.

"We—" Tony hesitated, not sure when to start, "Actually, I also knew Loki when he was very young, when he pretended to be a waiter in a coffee shop—a coffee shop, Do you understand?"

Eliza nodded, motioning for him to continue.

"I met him again when I was 14 and we had sex that time and then the bastard disappeared like before and we didn't get together until we met again at a reception three years ago " Tony unnaturally straightened his hair, he wanted to speak carefully to show his affection in front of his rival, but at the end he actually started to blush—although he was thick-skinned, it was the first time in his life that he truly Love is still a little shy.

"It sounds very romantic, with an ancient sense of destiny," Eliza commented sincerely, obviously a little depressed, which made Tony blame himself slightly, "Rocky once took me to the atrium, several times He actually likes it there, although he's never going to admit it. He's always thought you're funny, kind and evil, a fascinating contradiction. And you look human and have brown hair, which Loki likes You are not surprised."

Tony is confused by the adjective the elf princess just used. What is "very human"?However, what confuses him even more is—"Has Loki always liked brown hair?"

Eliza nodded: "He likes brown-haired human boys, and he is often very gentle with them. Once he took me to play in the courtyard, and just landed in a farm field, and met a crying farmer. It turned out that he had a bet with a giant. , and lost his only son as a bet. He didn't want to mind his own business, but changed his mind when he saw the farmer's son, a little brown-haired boy with freckles, indeed very cute."

"Why?" Tony couldn't help being curious.

"I asked Loki, but he refused to tell." Eliza was a little discouraged. "Although it is not a good behavior to inquire about other people's privacy, I really want to know the reason."

"We'll always have a chance to find out." Tony winked mischievously at Eliza, "I think he'll have to rest in bed for a while after he regains consciousness, and he won't be able to go anywhere. Next to him, asking him over and over again, asking him to be terribly annoying, wishing to tell us everything honestly."

Eliza was amused.

"You're funny, like Loki," she said, but quickly stopped smiling, "but there's one thing I'm not sure you know . . . if you knew, you probably wouldn't want me in the Here it is."

"I think I know," Tony said after a moment of affective thought, "You like Loki, don't you?"

Eliza covered her mouth: "The mother tree is on top, why do you..."

"I heard from Saul before," Tony shrugged, "don't worry, it's not a big deal."

"You are a generous person," the elf princess unconsciously used honorifics, "but don't worry, Loki treats me like the most beloved little sister, he never loves me as a lover Pass."

"What about you? How did you love Loki?" Tony pressed, knowing he shouldn't, but he had to be sure before he could make up his mind.

Elizabeth's fair face immediately flushed beautifully.

"This is too much, Mr. Stark," she tugged at the hem of her skirt in embarrassment, looking at Tony with restless and angry eyes, "you can't just--such--ask a lady such a question .”

But Tony ignored it.

"Do you love him as much as I do?" He looked into the sea blue eyes staring at him without flinching.

"I don't know, stop asking." Eliza turned her back, but was dragged by Tony's shoulders to her eyes.

"Tell me, this is important," he repeated. "Do you love him as much as I do? Love him deeply, trust him in the unknown, and stick with him no matter what monster he becomes?"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Stark, I love Loki like this, are you satisfied?" Eliza yelled out unbearably.

"Very satisfied," Tony smiled and let go of his hand, "You know I won't live long, and I always have to plan for Rocky's future."

Eliza's big eyes were full of doubts and hopes, "You mean—"

"I'm a human being, and a human being in my 30s, dear lady," Tony said slowly, sitting back on Loki's bed, "I have at most 100 years to live, and in fact, as a A fighter who is often involved in maintaining world peace, I may die at any time."

"Rocky loves me, I love him, and we're going to have a great time, but I can't be with him all the time, and that's something I have to face. He'll be sad when I leave, and maybe he'll be sad because It's too hard to do some bad things that shouldn't be done, and then you need another person to come into his life-after all, the best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one."

"I don't understand—" Eliza whispered, biting her lip.

"You understand," Tony smiled and broke her lie, "you are beautiful and smart, how could you not understand? The question is, are you willing to wait? I promise it won't be too long, for elves, 100 years It's just a snap of the fingers, isn't it?"

"But love is not something that can be done at will," the poor elf princess lowered her head in frustration. "Even if I am willing to wait, Loki will not fall in love with me."

"So, are you going to give up?"

"No," Eliza quickly raised her head, her bright eyes sparkled with excitement, "I won't give up, never."

"It seems that our goals are the same," Tony feigned a high five excitedly, "I will create a chance for Loki to come to Alfheim for a while before I die, and you, my beautiful princess, will also Remember to fulfill your promise."

☆、Ch.43. Home and relatives

Frigga's reply was quick, or the action was quick, because the next day she rode a radiant eight-legged horse from the sky to Alfheim, which reminded Tony that Sol—does the appearance of the Aesir have to be so cool?

Well, he was thinking so wildly mainly for distraction. He didn't want to admit that Tony Stark was so nervous that he had to walk on the same hands and feet, but that was Frigga. Odin, who was lying half dead on the bed, was different, she was the person Loki cared about the most.

It is also the person Tony must please.

Love, love, look at what you have made a good person look like, Tony sighed secretly to the sky in his heart, you let Romeo run into people's gardens in the middle of the night and smash windows with pebbles, and let Anna Karenina commit suicide by lying on the rails , and now the president of Steck Industries is willing to grovel, ready to try his best to please a woman he has never met.What's worse, he thought he would have enough time to ask Eliza about Frigg's preferences, but he didn't expect her to come so soon.

He was not prepared at all...

Luckily, Frigga obviously doesn't know Tony's thoughts and feelings now. She jumped off the horse in a heroic manner, and simply exchanged a few brief diplomatic words with the Elf King who came to greet her, and Assange The elder led the way to the ward in a hurry.Tony touched his nose, followed sneakily, but was locked out because it was useless to the treatment, but might get in the way.

"Do you think Loki will get better?" Eliza, who was also locked outside the door, said worriedly, her beautiful blue eyes almost shed tears.

"Of course." Tony sat on the window sill in the corridor, looking at the garden outside the window, and replied casually.

"Aren't you worried?" Eliza stared at Tony angrily. Isn't he Loki's lover?What's it like to act nonchalant at such a critical moment of life and death?

"Don't worry," Tony said briskly, tapping his fingers on the window frame. "He's going to be fine, I have a hunch." In fact, he had always held a strange and extremely blind feeling for Loki. Confidence, or in other words, always has the ability to predict things related to Loki.Therefore, in the Battle of New York, even when Loki activated the Cosmic Cube to open the space door and let those screaming aliens in, Tony firmly believed that he would stop.

But this time, he still has a premonition that Loki will wake up soon, and they will enjoy a rare leisurely time in this peaceful and peaceful country, which makes his heart immersed in bright emotions, completely ignoring Pay attention to the dissatisfaction of others.

Eliza stared at Tony meticulously, as if she was about to punch a hole in his face, and finally she sighed in frustration, turned her head away and continued to wait in front of the closed door of the hospital room, paying no attention to Tony.

They waited for a long time, and finally there was some movement from inside the door, and then the door opened a small gap, and a male elf nimbly got out of the gap—he was the lively one who took the initiative to talk to Tony before. Golden Eye Elf.

"Brother, is he alright?" Eliza yelled softly and rushed to the golden-eyed elf, "You look very pale, is something wrong with Loki?" It turned out that he was also a child of the Elf King, His Royal Highness the Prince of Alfheim.

The elf prince curled his lips unhappily and sighed troubledly.

"Loki is fine," he replied patiently. "The Queen of God is adjusting the magic power for him. The progress is not fast but relatively stable." Why does my younger sister, who is more beautiful than the sun, moon and all stars, fall in love with an outsider!Will she marry into Asgard in the future?Does she want to separate from her family, especially her brother?

他看着心爱的妹妹因为自己的话而长长舒了一口气，脱力般地慢慢将柔弱的身子靠在一旁的墙壁上，一种想要将那个始作俑者从病床上拖起来揍上一顿的Impulse immediately took possession of the whole body.

Be patient, Lagris, he forced himself to loosen his clenched fist, you don't want to start a war between Asgard and Alfheim, so you must not act recklessly.There is always a way, if you want, you can always save your beloved sister from that little bastard Loki.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and just caught sight of Tony standing aside, his eyes lit up instantly.

"Oh, Stark, the human who took away Loki's love." He grabbed Tony's wrist like a life-saving straw, "Why are you still here? You are his lover, you should go in and wait."

"I—" Tony couldn't adapt to this sudden enthusiasm, "I wanted to go in before, but an elf drove me out, saying that it was useless for me to stay in." This is indeed true, Tony also felt that he couldn't help at all. It's not a human operating room. Once the equipment is broken, he can repair it or something.

"Of course it is useful," the elf prince said in a pompous tone, "you can bring him spiritual encouragement and comfort, which is very important to Loki.
