Mira's POV

I snuck back upstairs and found Tony and Steve sitting on opposite ends of the sitting room talking to Director Fury on the TV.

"So Loki destroyed the cameras?"

"Yes. One single blast set them on fire and we couldn't put it out."

"I'll send you a new box."

"No. Loki will just destroy that too."

"We have to keep an eye on them somehow."

"He's changed." It was Cint who spoke up, "He's not the same person he was before. We don't need more cameras. We just need to keep a close eye on him."

"Then where is he? Where is Mira now?"

"They vanished after these two," Bruce jerked his thumbs to either side of the room, "Started yelling."

"Well where did they go?"

"To their room, I think." I decided to go back downstairs. I had no desire to talk to Fury right now, I would wait for him to simmer down. I went down to the theater, no one was there at the moment. Nat was probably either training or in her room and Loki was probably still sulking for some unknown reason. I didn't want to risk sneaking past the Avengers upstairs again, even though the house was more than large enough for me to creep past unnoticed, but I didn't want to risk hearing any more of that conversation. Something told me I wouldn't want to hear it and I would become more torn between my life with Loki in Asgard and my old life here. I wasn't hungry, even though I had had nothing to eat for breakfast, and there wasn't really anything to do in the sitting room down here aside from stare at the wall. The TV was in the kitchen, which was pretty much a third sitting room, and the living room at the bottom of the white spiral was too close to the Avengers. That left the theater. I could pull out a few of my favorite movies or TV series and binge watch them. That is, if Frigga stocked up on them. Before I actually went there, I went back to Loki and I's formal room to fetch the DVDs I had recovered from my apartment.

The heater was cooler than I remembered, it was refreshing as the warmth of the shower I had taken was beginning to catch up with me. I spent at least five minutes going through the movies that Frigga had put in the stand in the back of the room when I discovered something I had failed to see before. She had also collected video games. And bought a console for us to play on. I was about to put MarioKart into the wii when I spotted a movie that wasn't supposed to be out on DVD yet...Crimson Peak. I squealed, I had seen the trailer and I had had a huge thing for Tom Hiddleston before I met Loki. The fact that he looked like Loki was only another bonus. Squealing loudly, I sprinted over to the DVD player and practically shoved the disk in.

"What are you doing?" Nat was standing leaning against the open doorway with her free hand on her hip.

"I'm going to watch a movie. Wanna join?"

"What is it?"

"Crimson Peak!!"

"What's it about?"

"I can't say but I want to see it so badly and it's not supposed be out on DVD for another three months!"

"Then how is it here?"

"Frigga must've replicated it."

"What were the others doing?"

"Talking to Fury on the TV upstairs."

"I should go up there and report..."

"I can wait until you get back if you want...."

"But I don't feel like facing him right now."
