Summary
He was a very beautiful child.
When he was seven, Apollo saw him and was so smitten by his beauty and his boldness, the keenness already of his wit and intellect, that he claimed him wholly for his own.
Apollo was the last Loki saw of the physical; the sight was stilled etched into his memory, and for all its beauty, he hated it.
The day after Apollo took his sight and gave him another, he was taken to Delphi.

Summary
Once, when Effie was young, she’d asked her mother why the children in the districts were so different – why they didn’t grow up and become fun things like fashion designers and makeup artists and movie makers, but rather boring things like farmers and lumberjacks and coal miners.
“Because it makes them happy,” Cornelia had told her. “They get to provide, Euphemia. We give them so much, and this is how they can give back.”

Summary
I love you as your namesake never loved Dante, as your other namesake loved the Seine. I love you although I have forbidden myself to speak either of your names aloud, and thus I love you as a secret only I am permitted to keep, the most cherished of my midnight whispers. I love you although you have been dead a year, and because of it, for nothing you could ever do could make me love you less. I love you as the fish loves the fish-hook and the worm loves to be bait, as the bells love to toll for a funeral and lilies love to make the mourners sneeze.

Summary
Someone--he's not sure who, only knows their scent and not their name--brings him books.
They aren't supposed to, he knows. No one is supposed to. And sometimes no one does--bring him things, he means. Sometimes, he goes so long without things that his stomach aches and gnaws at his insides and all he can do is dream of the taste of anything.
He knows their scent, and he thinks they are kindest of his keepers--when they watch, he is given books, and food, and sometimes new clothes.

Summary
The six of them just saved the planet from an alien invasion and a megalomaniacal dictator with mind-controlling magical powers. Thor’s a god, Steve is an enhanced super soldier, Bruce has serious anger management problems, Agents Romanoff and Barton kill people for a living, and Tony is… well, he’s Tony Stark. He’s the Iron Man, he’s an eccentric billionaire genius, he’s famous (sometimes for bad reasons, like that cock-up with the cleaning robot). And he flew an active nuclear warhead through a portal into outer space, which definitely counts for something. In short, they are pretty much the most amazing thing in the world right about now.
And yet he thinks that maybe this is the moment that defines them as a team – the one where Barton has a goddamn seizure in the shawarma joint and the rest of them panic and run around like headless chickens.

Summary
Pepper leaves, and there’s no more pizza, and Thor’s already talked about Jane, and Tony suspects all of them realize, abruptly and simultaneously, that they actually have no idea what to do now. He is, in fact, pretty certain that they’re just a few minutes away from someone deciding to say something about the weather. It’s probably going to be him.
//SPOILERS for the film.
