Swap

"Hey, Thor, I've got the perfect thing to get the man of iron and wizard together." Loki says. The Avengers were sick of the tension and wanted the same.
"What's your plan, brother?" Thor asks. "Switch their bodies until they kiss." Loki says, smirking.

"A body swap? Like Tony in Stephen's body, visa versa?" Natasha asks. "Not gonna lie, that'd probably be pretty fuckin hilarious to see." Clint says. "Language." Steve scolds quietly.

Loki chuckles. "So shall it be." he says, moving his hands in a cross motion. "If and when they kiss, they'll return to normal."

The next morning, when Stephen woke up, he seemed confused. ‘This isn't the sanctum...’ he thought, looking around. He then looked down at his clothes. ‘Wait, these aren't my clothes-.. These are Tony's.’ Stephen stood up, looking in the mirror.

‘Oh. My god.’

"What the hell happened?" he asks as he walks out, finding a clueless Peter eating cereal at the table. "...? D-did something happen, Mr. Stark?.."
"No- Peter, it's me. Doctor Strange. Somehow, stark and I switched bodies." Stephen says. Peter gave a confused, slightly skeptical look. "Nu-uh. Prove it."

Stephen sighs. "Ask me something you think Tony would know." he says. "What did my first suit look like?" Peter asks. "... Wasn't... Wasn't it metal?" Stephen asks.
"... Oh my god you really did switch bodies didn't you-" Peter said. When Stephen met him, he was wearing the iron spider suit; ergo, that's the only suit Stephen would know.

Tony was freaking out a little. He woke up, he was taller, he was surrounded by magic (which he's not used to, being a science guy).

"Okay, alright, he can make portals right? I just gotta.." Tony mumbles, attempting at opening a portal.

After multiple tries, he finally opened a lopsided portal and went through, finding himself in front of Peter and Stephen (in his body) as the portal closed.

"... What the hell did you do, wizard?"
"Me? This isn't my fault."
"It has to be, you're the fucking witch here!"
"I'm not a witch-"

They started talking over each other, bickering. Peter looked between them, not knowing exactly what to do. He finally decided to throw a web over both of their mouths. "Enough!"

Tony and Stephen look at him, Tony looking more annoyed (which seemed weird with Stephen's usually stoic expression. Stephen, on the other hand, was perfectly calm, again, strange on Tony's usually expressive face.

Peter stood up, walking between them. "You're both obviously confused at this situation, but arguing isn't going to solve anything, okay?!.." he says, taking the webs off of their mouths.

"... Shoot a web at my face again and I swear-" Tony mumbles, crossing his arms. Peter sighs. "I don't know what happened. I don't know how to fix it. But obviously arguing isn't going to get you anywhere. Please figure something else out.." he says before walking away.

They both stayed quiet, until Tony sighs. "Let's go to my lab and talk, maybe we'll figure something out, or at least figure out how this happened.." he mumbles.

The two went to the lab, sitting down against a wall.

"... How do you do it?" Tony asks. Stephen looks at him, which felt odd, like looking at himself. "Do what?"
"Anything with your hands. I can't.. I can't feel them." Tony says. Stephen looked away. ".. I use magic, most of the time, to help me move them. I can't ever get them to stop shaking, though.. After I got into a car accident, I had severe nerve damage in both hands, lost my job as a surgeon.."

Tony frowns, lifting his hands up and seeing how badly they shook. "What about you? What's up with this?" Stephen asks, pointing to the arc reactor in Tony's chest.
"Explosion.. I had to make that to keep the shit from reaching my heart. It's not that bad, really.." Tony says.

"... If my hands didn't shake, I could probably get it out of your body so you wouldn't need this.." Stephen says. "I could probably make something for your hands, Stephen, but the issue is, I'm in your body, and you're in mine." Tony responds.

"Yeah, well, unfortunately, I don't know anything about body swaps.. From what I know, only a magical item or a god can switch someone's bodies." Stephen says. Tony realized.

Or a god.

"Loki." he mumbles. Stephen looks at him, confused. "Think about it. If anyone could switch our bodies, why not the god of chaos and mischief? I bet everything that this is Loki's doing." Tony explained.

"There has to be a way to switch back. All spells have a counterspell, a fail-safe. It's a balance." Stephen says.
".. You know, I never gave you credit enough. You're really smart. Powerful, too; I could barely open a portal, and you use magic like it's second nature to you.." Tony says.

Stephen looks at him. "... It is.. I had to learn, though. You, Tony, you were born gifted with knowledge." he says. "So we're you. Just, a different kind. Medical, and all." Tony says.
"I wasn't born with that-" Stephen says. "No, but I wasn't born knowing how to make shit either." Tony responds. "Well no but you were born with a high IQ."

"Who says you weren't?" Tony says, looking at him. Stephen looks back at him, the two staying quiet.

Neither of them know exactly what possessed them (or at least, wouldn't admit they like each other yet); Tony put a hand on Stephen's cheek (well, other way around, being in different bodies) and kissed him.

The both of them felt when they switched back, Stephen immediately flowing magic to his hands and moving them to wrap around Tony's waist. Tony moved his hands to Stephen's shoulders, the two staying like that for a moment.

When the kiss broke, neither off them pulled back too much, still very close to one another. ".. Of course a kiss was the answer, fuckin god of mischief.." Tony half joked, Stephen giving a faint smile in response.

"I mean can you belie- mph-" Tony got cut off as Stephen kissed him again. He kissed back, smiling a little.
