Summary
No, Tony isn’t pleased about the fact that Loki is now a part of the Avengers. He can’t really forgive, he definitely can’t trust, but team is team so he does his best to deal with it. When a magical mishap turns Loki into a dragon – of all things! – it's for some reason still Tony he seeks out for help and protection. So now Tony is stuck with a clingy and demanding dragon for company, until things can hopefully be set right.
The rest of the Avengers are not amused, but getting to know Loki in this new skin is letting Tony see the team trickster in a different light. Maybe he’s really not all bad?

Bookmarker's Notes
I have a lot of problems with this.
Mostly cause the charaterizations are taken from Ragnarok, that is a film written just to humiliate Loki and exalted a narcisist heartless Thor who only uses people for his gain. No matter how much the author tries to make Thor mature here, it just fells false. Heimdall's characterization is even worse, all his actions and treasons forgotten.
But it's lighhearted and leaves the taste that these gods live in a world of absurd things, detached from mortals. That isn't a bad thing at all.Obviously, Thor thinks of Loki as 'his homicidal little brother' but since noone has a shred of honesty, there isn't the much more true 'the mass murderer who smashes heads of people and laughts Thor' or 'the one who cuts heads of children Heimdal'. Thor is just a first-class hypocrite. Maturity?, yes, when he'll begin to take responsability for his crimes.

Summary
The day after the invasion Tony wakes up and his tower is intact again; everything is exactly the way it was before this whole mess went down. It doesn’t take him long to catch up but he can’t figure out why he’s in a time loop – so he does what anyone would: fuck things up while trying to find a way to fix this. Somewhere along the way, his priorities change and suddenly he finds himself involved neck-deep in Norse family drama, along with some other stuff.

Bookmarker's Notes
The punishment of Loki, both the fic's arc and the one done by the characters seems just injust. But at least this is well written and takes into account many problems. It seems more that the situations are dragged on for the need of some tension than for a completly lack of understanding of the concept of justice.
Odin and his 'I do what I want to whoever I want' is called out but at the end is whitewashed as if he is a 'good guy'. Seeing him and Frigga being hurt for Loki just makes me sick. These are two mosters that have executed him multiple time without a trail, without knowing basic facts or any investigation (and ignoring a lot of things that they know - like the scepter) just cause they hate their "son" and like to kill people in horrible ways.
How many other innocents have they massmurderered/executed without trail?
As always in Loki fics Loki is called genocidal, traitor multiple times by everyone including himself and the external point of view of Stark. And every thing he had done is seen as evil, even when he has saved uncountable lives, Asgard and probably the nine realms - including earth - from war. While everyone else crimes mass mureder and genocide are completly forgotten or considered heroic or their fault is given to Loki, cause he is obviously at fault for the actions of everyone else!
If Loki has tried to genocide the jotun (during a war and a mental breakdown and being put in charge of resolving the situation) than Thor has massmurdered hundreds of them! And asked his father to genocide them together!
With no justification. No war. No extenuating circustancies. Nothing but his ego.
But for some reason that is not Thor's fault, it's Loki's!
Loki has manipulated him into going to jotunheim by saying that going to jotunheim is madness and a crime after that Thor has already decided to go there! Peacy!
If Loki is a traitor than Thor going against the direct order of Odin, barging into another realm and smashing to a pulp the heads of people there is a treason too, no? But Thor is never called a traitor, nor a mass murderer of innocent jotun that were just living in their homeplanet and that their mothers and sons will mourn forever.
Not even in the private thoughts of some character. Nada.
Not even a mention that Thor tried to murder at least 4 humans, without any justification. Or that he tried to make his friends and Loki killed on jotunheim.
If the sentence for treason is execution than Thor, the warrior three and Sif and Heimdall should be executed too. Maybe multiple time, for balance a little the poetic justice.
Instead somehow massmurdering is compared to Loki being accomplice in the three jotun quest to take back their casket. (Even if being an accomplice is a far cry from going and committing a crime with your own hands. The jotun committed their crimes, is not everything fault of Loki. The real crime of Loki is what? Making a deal with some jotun? Without knowing even what the deal was or in what condition it was made? Oh, right, all the jotun are evil so to bring some of them to asgard is a crime all on itself and endanger the population, even if... Odin brought Loki, a jotun, to asgard, so...)
And obviously "Loki's redemption" can be accomplished only after multiple horrific deaths, three battles, months of pain and self hatred and in the last cycle still months on trail with the certainty to be unjustly killed by his own family (cause it has already happened). Noone going to him and saying we wont kill you, or even we'll take into consideration all the circustancies this time, even when they know of his executions. Noone apologising for sending him to jotunheim where in a cycle he was murder (again without a trail - all good people in this fic!), even after knowing it. Noone doing nothing or caring for his mental state. Multiple battles. Loki repairing everything even if not even half of it is his fault (like the diplomatic relationship with jotunheim and the bifrost) and acting as pratically a saint.
And this is compared with the three days on earth of Thor.
Yeah, fair.I like that Loki has a trial and is declared innocent as he should be. And that Loki has a better life at the end - traumas apart, but this fic pretends that traumas exist only for the plot. I don't like how he arrives there. Not that after everything is still implied that he still has to pay something. I like that he is considered a prince and he is not diminuished. I like that 'Odin's form of governament' is considered as messed up as it can be for most of the fic. I like that Thor starts to change and admits some very little part of his faults. I like that the frostiron relationship is not the outcome of manipulation coercion and general depravacy from Tony, like in many other fics (even if, given the mental state of Loki is still messed up as it can be. But again here traumas are just plot devices)

Summary
Thor knew something was weird, he was just not quite able to put his finger on it. His Father had hastened him to return to Earth, weakening himself in the process, no doubt, as the Rainbow Bridge was still...out of commission to say the least. What he had not expected was to have his father wish him to return with his brother, Loki. He had thought Loki dead, but it would seem that was not quite correct. That alone is suspect, he had fallen into the Void, after all, and none survive the void. Needless to say, his twist of memories, though Thor knew a good portion of what he had told him on the rock was true, there was something that ringed...off with what he was saying. It made more sense when he got more information though, but he had no idea how to fix his little brother.
