It was a slow morning, no one was doing anything, yet everyone found themselves in the game room, some by the bar/snack bar, others playing cards, most just staring in silence at the ceiling

"We're earth's mightiest heroes, how come we can't come up with a singular interesting thing to do?"

"I don't know Cora, please, if you have any mind blowing idea, please do share"

"Stop being a bitch, greaseball, and as a matter of fact, I do have an excellent idea" now that piqued everyone's interest "can the quinjet work if we take it higher? Say, like, to the exosphere?" the bored heroes looked at her perplexed. "What? I wanna go to the moon" she shrugged as if it was the most common thing to say

"The... moon?" questioned Sam, who looked very preoccupied for his friend's sanity (clearly, he wasn't the only one)

"C'mon! It makes sense! Bruce ended up on another planet, by the way much farther away. Why wouldn't we just go and have a little tea party on the moon?" she whined trying to convince her friends

The team still looked skeptical, which is why, in Cora's mind, she had to bring out the big guns

"Steve, Tony thinks the moon landing was fake" Cora said loudly, grinning at Thor who was giving her a disappointed mom look, knowing full well that she was just manipulating them.

Instantly, Tony jumped in to back himself up

"I don't think the moon landing was fake, I KNOW IT WAS"

"FUCKING TRAITOR-" poor Steve's outburst was interrupted by everyone

"LANGUAGE!", that made him turn his angry glare from the billionaire towards the rest of them, sighing before opening his mouth again

"PACK YOUR BAGS, WE'RE ALL GOING TO THE MOON AND SHOW STARK THE AMERICAN FLAG" and with that, everyone scurried away to follow the orders, too scared of the fuming captain

"I get why you love being the god of mischief, tricking people into doing exactly what you wanted them to do in the first place... it feels amazing" Cora sighed dreamily, snickering to the god as they walked side by side to get ready.

Both them, Thor and Wanda walked out of the elevator together, since Loki had taken the last empty room in the floor, and after they all had geared up, they stepped into the lift once again

"Why the moon, though?" questioned the god of thunder

"I wanna see the americans when they see there's no flag nor footprints" cackled the woman, as Wanda's jaw fell in surprise and the two asgardians laughed

"We're having tea though, right, lolite?" Wondered the blonde god, Cora hummed in response, leaning into Thor's shoulder, oblivious to the slight frown that took place in the face of the raven haired prince at seeing the closeness between his brother and Cora

Loki is jealous

Shut up, witchling

Cora just giggled at the two voices resounding in her head, turning towards the god of mischief and throwing him a wink and a teasing smirk as she hugged the blonde man closer before letting go

You're so easy to rile up, mischief

I'll show you riled up, darling

Bring it on

I'm still here, you guys are disgusting... adopt me?

Sure

No
