As promised, a multi-chaptered fic from me in this fandom :D However, this isn't exactly what I was talking about in my one-shot. Please read: This fic is going to be a series of unrelated drabbles featuring Loki and Jane's relationships through various prompts I received in our forum :D They may be canon, AU or maybe even crack. Just wanted to explain so you guys won't be confused :D I hope you enjoy! (Oh! And rating may vary depending on the drabble!)

Summary: Jane contemplates how she got interested with astronomy in the first place. (Post-Avengers)

Prompt: Anonymity

Disclaimer: If only. LOL

Chapter 1: Anonymity

It had been a fairly average day for Jane Foster: drinking three cups of coffee, going through her thesis, defending it against SHIELD scientists, conducting various experiments with highly radioactive gadgets, fighting with Coulson and trying to keep her temper with Fury.

Yup, a fairly average day indeed.

That was until Darcy asked a question that really made her think, making her deviate from her usual routine.

"Why did you take up Astrophysics anyway?"

For a moment, Jane had been so sure of what to answer—till she opened her mouth to speak. It was odd. After all, it was a question that she was sure to answer easily, it was a question that had made her who she was today, it was a question that made it the reason why she had met Thor and was currently performing tests in SHIELD.

But she came up blank, and she didn't know why.

She had left the lab only a few minutes ago to take a break (which was rare, Darcy and Eric had given her strange looks); because not being able to answer the question had really bothered her and thinking about it made her head ache.

And that was a first.

The view was fantastic from the terrace, and one can truly admire the sunset from up there—however, Jane couldn't get herself to concentrate on the beautiful sight. The cool November wind gently caressed her face and made her brown locks tangle against the wind, a faint smile forming on her lips. She had almost forgotten the last time she went up here, appreciating the stars and thinking about what if's and the many possibilities of how the world was made.

The memory made her feel nostalgic—it felt like it happened years ago when in fact it only happened a few months back. And this time, she wasn't going up here to admire the view nor to relax.

She went closer to the railings and placed her hands over the cool bar, looking past twilight to dig up her memories from far before, hating the feeling of not being able to answer something.

Absolutely this something.

How could she not remember something as important as this? Something that defined who she was now? Something that gave her a purpose in life?

It was unacceptable and humiliating.

She gripped the railings harder, her eyes glaring at the sun and her lips set in a straight line—before she chuckled and shook her head, sighing. Forcing herself to remember won't really do her any good, absolutely when the answer doesn't want to show itself. Like they say, a lost object only shows itself once you're done searching for it—it will eventually show up.

No matter how eager and determined you are to find that missing object.

"Green."

Jane's eyes widened and turned her head only to see Eric heading her way, two cups in his hand. He gave her a warm smile and she returned it with an amused one, brushing her messy hair back.

"You scared me for a moment there, and….green?" she replied with a raised brow, her arms crossed as she warmed herself up before grabbing a cup from Eric—which was surprisingly not coffee but hot chocolate.

Eric didn't say anything till he settled beside her, taking a long sip as he looked at the view, yet his eyes looked past it, thinking of something deep. Jane on the other hand, waited patiently for his answer, her fingers drumming against the cup.

"That was always what you answered when you were asked the question why you wanted to be an Astrophysicist—at least, back when you were younger…before the accident."

Jane's mouth dropped and her hand unconsciously made its way up her forehead, brushing an almost invisible scar before her hair line, making her lick her lips. "Green." She repeated and looked back at the sky, which was now the shades of purple, pink and orange, the colors mixing beautifully.

And then a sudden flashback of stunning emerald colored eyes flashed before her, making her stagger and take a step back, gasping. She heard Eric ask her if she was okay but she ignored him, hardly feeling his hands behind her back to support her as she held on to that memory, gripping on it hard.

Yes, it was a boy…a boy older than her by a few years. A boy with those striking eyes, she didn't know who he was but she was certain of one thing.

He was the one that introduced her to astronomy; he was the one that made her love the stars and constellations.

A faceless man, a blank name- such irony that an anonymous boy had given her the purpose she had in life.

OoOoO

For Anonymity, there's going to be a second chapter for this, though I won't post it yet (I plan to post it as the last chapter actually, to explain Loki's side :) ). Reviews would be lovely~
