Love In All The Wrong Places

Chapter 1; Hello Again

It had been some time since Loki Laufeyson had gone to visit his captives. It seemed that running a planet and keeping it's inhabitants in line took a good amount of time and effort. Well, in truth Loki hadn't seen any of the Avengers since he had fought them. They had been sealed away in various rooms in the partially desroyed Stark Tower. It was on a dreary morning like this that the deity needed entertainment, so he decided he would visit that amusingly infuriating man that was so sure of his team's triumph; Stark himself.

Really he just wanted to rub his victory in. He entered the room via magic, eyes searching for the figure that he had come to see. There was the figure, sitting in a corner on a chair. "Stark, so good to see you again." The God of Mischief greeted, grinning. It wasn't often that he had someone to play with these days.

Tony Stark was ragged, losing his mind in one of the guest rooms that he had built. He had been provided with the bare necesities of life there. There wasn't any alcohol brought to him, nor any technology to play with. The inventor had been sober for about six months now, painfully so. The chitauri were only so fun to play with and then it got boring when he was met with the same nonchallant violence time and time again so when Loki appeared out of nowhere he was certainly interested.

"Hey, Reindeer Games. Where'd your horns go?" Tony asked and Loki grinned.

"My helmet is not necesarry here." The deity replied, thoroughly pleased by the man's unchanging sarcasm.

The deity's interest in Stark had started at the beginning of his domination of Earth. A human to have an intellect to match his own was unfathomable before their meeting. As it was there wasn't even an Asgardian that could. This was something that he would have liked to explore earlier but really? Now was just as good a time as then.

"If you say so. I think I liked your world domination get up better." The genius joked and Loki raised a brow.

"Are surely commenting on my clothing?" He asked slowly, staring at the man in front of him.

"I surely am, sweet cheeks." Tony answered, mocking Loki's odd speech patterns.

"Do not mock the one that has the power to crush you, Anthony." The god answered with a grin. And oh how fun that would be. "And anyway, I came to see how you stood abou your team now. Still think that you'll avenge your precious planet?"

"Maybe... Though I have to say, I haven't taken a walk in some time." Tony said with a shrug. "Cool thing you did there with my name though. You really think I care at this point if you crush me or not?"
