ajremixDon't know how I feel about this but, well, it's out there.
Title: No Secrets
Fandom: Marvel Movie-verse
Rating: PG
Word Count: 380
Characters: Loki, Clint
Summary: Loki finds that one of his toys knows some very interesting things.
When Loki says to Barton, "Who is the most dangerous person in SHIELD?" he expects to be told it's the man with one-eye or perhaps one of those 'secret projects' he's heard about while piggybacking on Selvig's consciousness. Instead he's surprised to hear the answer is, "Natasha."
It takes Loki a moment to realize he'd neglected to specify who would be most dangerous to their operation rather than to Barton himself but he hears it in the agent's tone, in the way his eyes soften as much as the Tesseract's blue allows them to. So he settles in closer with a smile more teeth than warmth and commands, "Tell me about her."
Barton does. He tells Loki everything she's capable of, everything she's ever done and everything that had been done to her. He spreads out her history and all her secrets until they're naked and dissected before the Asgardian and while Loki tucks each word into his memory for future use, he's far more interested in the way Barton talks about her. He wonders if, without the Tesseract to force it all out of him, the human would even realize what he feels for this woman, if he realized he was enchanted long before Loki ever came to Earth. He wonders if this 'Natasha' knows the depth of this man's feelings or if she's capable of feeling a fraction of that depth in return. It almost makes Loki giddy in anticipation, wanting to see how she'll react to this sentient puppet of Loki's, if the Tesseract's control is complete enough to make Barton fight and kill the woman he loves, wanting to know if a human- whose emotions were even more tumultuous and mercurial than that of Asgardians -brought to the brink of emotional despair would taste as sweet as nectar.
When Barton finishes he falls quiet and simply stares at Loki, awaiting his next orders. The god smiles, hundreds of possibilities opening just for this one person alone. He leans forward, elbows on his knees and tells Barton, "Tell me who else may endanger my operation." As Barton speaks again, Loki keeps an image in the back of his mind of blood and betrayal and a broken woman failing to save the man she'd once trusted with everything.

As Vivienne Granger (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1983862/Vivienne_Grainger) wrote for another fandom, "This torture has only one aim: the reinforcement of your ego. Because of that, there will never be a satisfactory end to it, for you; you cannot achieve externally what you do not have internally. You could kill us both, and it will not make you less weak."
