“Do you think we can stop being barbaric assholes and stabbing people for no reason?” Tony spits back, feeling Pepper at his side with that horrible look of concern on her face.
She doesn’t know. No one’s filled her in.
Tony isn’t sure why that makes him so angry. It hadn’t been anyone’s place to tell her, but maybe it would have made things easier. Or worse. Tony isn’t rightly sure. He drops his hand and bumps it against Pepper’s. “We need to talk,” he says. “And I’m not going to sugar coat it, Pep. It’s not great.”
Tony tries not to look up at Loki as he turns away from the group to get Pepper somewhere with less eyes. Of course, Fury always needs to get his answers. He’s maddeningly thorough that way. “Stark?” He repeats the last question and Tony holds his hand up before flipping the Cyclops off.
Loki will be all right without him. He’ll be all right. He’s got Thor. He can take care of himself. He tried to destroy their planet and kill them but he provided a lot of good information and he’s going to be fine.
It takes a lot of strength fo Tony to leave his side but he does.
