“I’m not here to make friends,” Tony replies casually, though he knows the look that Loki’s just given him. Justin Hammer is constantly giving him that particular look too and he knows exactly what it means.

Mischief, surely. Potentially at his expense. Still pretty fun. Damn his lack of sense of self preservation! And damn Loki for being so nightmarishly attractive!

“I’m here to help a friend out who happens to have a crush on your werewolf grandkid. I don’t have time for parties.” He rarely attends state functions anyway. “But I guess while I’m here I should probably represent my people.” One might almost think they can hear all of Earth screaming ‘no!’

He doesn’t wink at Loki. He doesn’t have to. Loki has got to be used to people wrapped around his finger.
