Quirky Bits

Summary:

This is a series of bits and story pieces that stick in my head. Nothing that would make a full story, but just scenes. Yes, they're short. Unless stated in the notes at the beginning of each bit, these are not connected.

This started out as just bits for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but then, I discovered bits on my harddrive that will never become stories, so turned this into a general story idea dump...

Chapter 1: Smarter than the Average Bear

Chapter Text

"Beautiful one! I am here for our lunch engagement!" Thor exclaimed as he entered the labs of Avengers tower, interrupting an ongoing argument between Tony Stark, Jane Foster, and Bruce Banner.

"I'm almost done, Thor," Jane replied distractedly, staring at a wall sized whiteboard covered with equations.

Peering at the board for a few moments, Thor ignored the raised voices and wild gestures. "You do know where it's wrong, correct?" he asked after a few moments of contemplation.

"I'm sorry?" Bruce asked.

Waving at the board, Thor replied. "The equation. You do see the mistake, correct? Is this one of your science games? Figure out where the writer went wrong? It is, after all, a simple mistake."

"Thor, honey," Jane said as Tony and Bruce stared at Thor for a few moments, then back at the white board. "We came up with this over the last week. We've gone over every line and section multiple times for mistakes."

"Then, it is brand new? Not a game?" Thor asked, eyebrows furrowed. "Then, in the name of learning, I will leave it to you. Good luck! I believe the quest for knowledge is a noble goal. I will take a raining check on our date, lovely one." Placing a quick kiss on the back of Jane's hand, he strode from the labs, leaving three scientists behind with dropped jaws.
