The Avengers (2012)
The One Howard Couldnt
by Jack_Ten_Master
Written for this prompt on Avengerkink. During one of his weapons-destruction runs in the desert, Tony stumbles upon a strange stone and decides to take it home. Only it wasn't a stone. It was a dragon egg. It doesn't have to have some major story-line or anything. Maybe just have him caring for it and doing his best to hide it from everyone, going so far as to buy a huge chunk of forest for the dragon to live in. Would love to see team reactions if the dragon rescues Tony during a mission (post-Avengers)and Tony being all "yeah he's a dragon. Wanna fight about it?" +10 If Tony and the Dragon can communicate with telepathy and the dragon get's annoyed because Tony never stops thinking +100 If Tony goes to the dragon for comfort after bad team arguments +10,000 If Coulson is annoyed by the amount of paperwork having a dragon would mean + My summer home if Tony is absolutely smitten with the dragon from the second it hatches and being uber-protective of him/her no matter how big and powerful they got.
