A/N: I waste no time! Bwuahaha!

The Avengers, Loki, Iron Man, or anything of the like. Just the thoughts inside my head. And taking some personal freedoms with mythology and lore.

Tony raised an eyebrow at the pamphlet in his lap, then up at the utterly pitiful face in front of him. One of his now twelve year old sons had learned how to perfect the wide eyes and down-turned lips. Tony knew that if he glanced over he'd see that Sander was giving Loki the same look. "You both want to go to a summer camp?" They both nodded. "But to different ones?" Another nod. "You know, you two do everything together, and now you want to separate?"

"It's only for 8 weeks," Sander said and Tony looked over at him. Tony was looking at the pamphlet of the camp that Tomas wanted to go to, oddly enough it looked like a version of space camp. It didn't surprise him, considering on several occasions Tomas like to go up with Kasir to Asgard and would stay with Iria and Heimdall, looking out at the realms from the bi-frost.

"And they're even in the same state, and they start on the same day." Loki held up the pamphlet for Tony to see. It looked like camp for aspiring Veterinarians. They knew the boys would eventually show their differences, but he hadn't expected the vast differences between them.

"It's open to High school Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, of which we are," Sander continued. "It doesn't say anything about age, so we qualify."

"Too smart for your own good," Tony mumbled. "Did you two finish your homework?" They both nodded. "Have JARVIS double check your references?" Another two nods. "Alright, go finish your chores, we'll talk this over." They both ran out to the kitchen. "They are the two most obedient children we've ever had," Tony said as he looked back down at the little packet.

"Even more so, now that they want something." Tony snorted a little. "It doesn't sound like a terrible idea," Loki admitted.

"The appealing part is having them out of the house for 8 weeks, right?" Tony smirked as Loki didn't say anything. "Eindride and I will be plenty busy during those first two weeks anyway, so it would be nice for them not to deal with all the press that will no doubt be around." Eindride had taken more of an interest in Stark Industries after things had calmed down six years ago, and was now going to take over as CEO. Tony was thrilled that one of his kids had voluntarily wanted the position, and was happy that he could go back to his position as head of R&D. They were going to announce the change in the summer, and were just going through the motions of making everything legal.

"We'll secure their positions in the programs?" Loki looked at Tony as he laid his head in Loki's lap. The younger man nodded. "And how long do we make them think that we haven't' decided yet?"

"I'd say about two weeks." Tony grinned.

Loki snorted a little and let his finger card through Tony's hair. "Where is our older son anyway?"

"He went to bed early," Tony told him as he grabbed both pamphlets. "He's been living in a different time zone downstairs lately, having a lot of meeting with our Asian headquarter's. He's been eating lunch when we eat breakfast."

"Is he still putting off finding an assistant?" Loki hummed a little when Tony's fingers fond his knee.

"He's the perfect mix of both of us, and that includes an increased stubbornness." Loki rolled his eyes a little. "He's going to need one before he becomes CEO though, so I've set up some meetings for two days for now. They'll come here." Tony smiled.

"And have you told him yet?" Loki asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Have I mentioned, how much I love your accent?" Tony smiled and Loki rolled his eyes.

"I shall endeavor to find something to do in two days," Loki informed him. "I think I'll go visit with Emma on Jotumheim. That way I won't have to fix whatever injuries Eindride gives you."

"You have no faith in me do you?"

"Not at this particular moment. Eeyah!" Loki jumped a little when Tony pinched his side.

Eindride took a deep breath as he turned in the bed. He needed more sleep, specially after getting off of a four hour meeting with their Tokyo Board. He shivered a little when he felt something at his back and frowned. Sitting up a little in the bed he turned and reached out with his powers. Nothing.

He stumbled a little when his feet were suddenly on the ground. Eindride swallowed and tried to reach out with his magic again. Still nothing, only this time there was literally nothing around him. The energies hadn't pinged off of anything. A hand suddenly started to slide up his shoulder from behind and he tensed. The fingers gripped his shoulders, nails digging into his skin. A sudden burning started in his stomach and he gasped. It raced through his veins and he arched his back in pain, the hand on his shoulder burning. He screamed when it felt like his skin was sliding off of his body.

Eindride shot up in his bed, panting heavily, feeling too warm. He was vaguely aware of noises around him, but he couldn't make them out, too focused on trying to stop his arms stop shaking. There was a sudden rush of cool air on his skin and he was flinching back and away, almost falling off the bed, when someone reached for his arm.

"-ers? Anders, hey, can you hear me?" Eindride turned his head when he heard Tony's voice calling him. His tone was, worried? He nodded once and licked his lips. "Okay good. Alright, I'm over this way, and your dad is next to me. Lya is on the other side of the bed, she wants to check on you."

Eindride extended his hand a little and felt Lya's cold nose push into his palm. He took a breath as his own started to return to normal. "I'm okay." His voice lacked the confidence he thought it would have. "It was just a dream."

"A dream that had you screaming?" Loki frowned as he watched their son.

"What happened? JARVIS couldn't wake you up, even Lya was barking to try and get you up." Tony had grabbed the edge of the sheets to wipe off Eindride's forehead.

"I'm not exactly sure," he shrugged. "Maybe it's just from changing my sleep schedule too much." He knew that neither of his parents would accept that as an excuse, but he didn't want to talk about his dream yet. "Starting to feel some of the stress. It'll probably go away now that I'm done with the meetings for now." He could practically feel Loki's eyes on him, but focused on petting Lya.

What Eindride didn't want to tell him was that he knew what the pain in the dream felt like, he knew what it was from. He didn't want to tell yet, not until he figured out why he was dreaming about it suddenly.
