--

On New Years Eve, Jarvis has the living room set up for guests with chairs and pillows about with a table off to one side with various chips, soft drinks, and sweets. Music playing from a stereo in the corner.

Come dinner time the dinning room table is full of food and drink to enjoy.

Depending on when people show up, Tony can be found either in the garage messing with his kit car, or in the living room, eyeing off the snacks.

[Tony looks up from the couch as Thor comes in and looks amused as he heads straight for the snacks.]

Don't they feed you at your house, tons of fun?

[Getting up he comes over to the table, picking up a cup and drinking it.]

Of course they do! They fed me as I left, too! [That doesn't stop him from perusing the snack table, of course.]
Are you really so concerned for my health, Stark? Have I lost weight?

Concerned yes, but I don't really get the impression you could actually lose the weight you find.

But hey, how was I to know that you dive all snacks like a desperate seagull? Just don't choke, okay Thunder Cake?

I think you'll find all of my weight turns to muscle with time. I know you are envious, but control yourself.

I eat because there is food!

[He replies with a bored tone.]

Yeah. Envious. You have me there, I know that every time I look at you I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach. Not really certain it's envy though.

[Then he smirks.]

I'll remember that when we have dinner, if I have left overs. I'll leave them in your capable knife and fork.

[He pauses then glances around a little.]

So, hey. What with it being Christmas and all for most of December, and Christmas being the season of giving. And well when you have money like I do, being generous and giving kind of comes with the prestige. So with that in mind.

[Tony walks off on Thor, heading to a large grandly decorated tree that's almost three times the size of Thor, he stops by two boxes stacked on each other. One two foot tall, the other one foot, both decorated in a very christmasy paper, both of them have Thor's name on the tags.]

These are yours. Happy holidays.

It will turn to muscle soon enough!

[Thor nods along as he rambles, not sure where Tony is going with this and unsure if he likes it. He and Tony had a rocky friendship at the best of times, so...

Seeing a huge stack of presents is a little bit incredibly fucking suprising.]

Is this some sort of joke? [He asks, but he's over there pulling at the paper anyway.]

[He leans against the table as he watches Thor head to the presents.]

Never really been one to joke about presents.

[In side the smaller box, Thor will find several containers of M&M's in all the flavours. In the second box is a large and sturdy hands free candy dispenser.]

[Thor shoots Tony a confused stare before working his way through the presents. With each one he opens, he lets out a yell of surprise. He's clearly very pleased with them, if not a little confused.

He grins at Tony before finally choosing not to be polite.]

It is fantastic! What is it?

[Tony snerks.]

It's a muggle candy dispenser.

[He comes over and taps the box where it says 'Automatic Candy Dispenser'.]

You put the candy in the top, and batteries. Well I already did the battery part for you. And then you wave you're hand under the spout, and candy comes out and into your hand.

It's the muggles own little version of 'accio candy'

ASTOUNDING! [He can't not yell that and he's shuffling to get it out of the box so he can fiddle with it. Here's hoping he doesn't break it.]

A most excellent present, Stark. But you should know, my affections are not won so easily. [He waggles an eyebrow. In jest, of course.]

[He chuckles a little.]

What can I say, I now how to impress when I want to.

So I can see. Perhaps I should be less skeptical of you!

[He smiles for a moment.] Ah! I brought something for you too! [He would have forgotten if this hadn't happened.]

Well yeah, that could help.

[Tony raises an eyebrow, his turn to be sceptical now.]

Wait. You sure it's not meant for like, Steve, or Natasha?

I gave them their gifts long ago, you fool!

[He grins in a way that says TRUST ME.] Shut your eyes!

Fool? Gee tha-

[Tony immediately looks suspiciously at him.]

You're not going to punch me again, are you?

It flatters you!

[He laughs, snorting a little.] What sort of friend would I be if I punched you after being given such a lovely gift? If I hit you, you may take it back! Now shut your eyes!

[Tony narrows his eyes giving him a scrutinising look before slowly closing his eyes.]

I don't want you kissing me, either.

[He crinkles his nose.]

I absolutely will not kiss your filthy mouth. [He buries his hand into his pocket, pulling out a metallic, beaded acorn on a long chain and draping it over Tony's head.]

Open!

It's not filthy, it's soft and charming.

[Tony tilts his head curiously as he feels Thor put something on him. Once he opens his eyes he looks down, picking up the metallic acorn and looking at it.]

An acorn?

[He looks at Thor.]

Okay, could be missing something, but this is an acorn, right?

[He looks back at the acorn. He doesn't hate it, and he has to admit it's a good looking acorn, he just isn't sure if this is an in-joke that he's forgotten about or a Norweegian thing, or just a Thor is weird thing.]

Indeed! [He nods enthusiastically.]

In Norse culture it is customary to keep an acorn within your dwelling so as to protect you from the WRATH of THOR. As you might have realised, my namesake is a god of thunder! I belived it would be clever to gift you an acorn so that when you are wearing it I am unable to hurt you.

So, I will not punch you so long as you are wearing it!

[Tony looks almost amused]

This is starting to sound like some strange way to enforce our friendship. Weirdly enough, I like it.

Thanks, Van de Graaff. It's not a bad gift at all.

It is a symbol of our truce! Not friendship! You read far too much into things, Stark. It only means you are not to be trifled with.

[He smiles and claps a hand on Tony's shoulder.] I am glad you think so!

[He winces slightly at the hand on his shoulder. Damn it Thor, not everyone's a brick house like you.]

Not to be trifled with? How is an acorn mean that? Other than being a Tiger stone for you?

[Thor raises an eyebrow as Tony winces. Silently he can't believe Tony is that weak, on the outside he just shrugs and smiles.]

I told you! The acorn is a sign to Thor. It tells him not to strike! ...What is a tiger stone?

[Tony is a think tank, not a war tank]

You say that. But I'm still feeling... Shocked, right about now. A tiger stone it's a placebo for the gullible. For example.

[Tony picks up a salt shaker.]

This salt shaker keeps away dragons.
