A/N: Two updates in one day? What is this?! Hope you guys enjoy this chapter :D

"You have never heard of a pickup line?"

"No…is it a piece of technology? Like a…conveyor belt?"

Tony resisted the urge to face palm as a devilish smile overtook his face. He was going to have fun with this one.

"A pickup line is something you say to someone you are attracted to in order to get their attention or to make them like you. For instance…"

Tony leaned forward seductively on the stool and whispered huskily, "Do you take karate because your body is kickin!"

"What is karate?" Loki asked, tilting his head.

This time Tony really did face palm as he groaned. The sound perked Loki's interest and he wondered what it was that frustrated the inventor before him.

"Alright, how about this one: Do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I walk by again?" Tony grinned with a wink.

"Are Midgardian women actually wooed by this?" Loki asked skeptically as he held back a laugh. The sight of Tony hitting on him was priceless, and he didn't wish to give it up so soon.

"Oh yes, the art of picking up women was influenced greatly by pickup lines," Tony bullshitted wisely. Of course he had never dared to use a pickup line on Pepper for fear she might actually kill him, but Loki didn't need to know that. Deciding to continue before his audience could ask more questions, Tony continued with, "I'm not drunk right now, I'm just intoxicated by you."

Loki shook his head at the stupidity of Midgardian women for falling for such cheesy lines and turned away from Tony so the man wouldn't see the blush slowly rising to Loki's face.

"I was so enchanted by your beauty that I ran into that wall over there. So I am going to need your name and number for insurance purposes."

"Stark if you ran into this wall, you would probably be electrocuted by the bars first, and then dead before you could even hit the wall," Loki sighed tirelessly. He knew he was trying to make it appear that these 'pickup lines' were going over his head, but both Loki and Tony knew they were having some sort of affect on the god.

It was evident by the blush on his face.

"Do you have a map, because I'm getting lost in your eyes!" Loki laughed at that one, and the sound made Tony's face break into a grin.

The scientist decided to step it up a notch as he moved off of the stool and crouched less than a foot away from the bars as his eyes pierced Loki's. In the huskiest voice he could muster, his eyes never leaving the god's, Tony whispered, "For a moment I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Now I see that I am very much alive, and that heaven has been brought to me."

"Stark really, you should quit making a fool of yourself before you lose all respect I have for you," Loki shook his head as he smirked at the man.

But Tony was far from giving up. Jumping up suddenly, he proclaimed for all SHIELD dogs listening in, "Are you from Tennessee because you're the only ten I see!"

Loki sighed and dropped his head into his hands. Stark was making a fool of himself and for what?

"I think I understand the concept of these pickup lines, now."

"Really? Because I could keep going," Tony grinned as he leaned forward, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. Tony didn't give Loki a chance to respond as he spewed out, "You must be a hell of a thief because you stole my heart from across the room!"

"Stark, please!" Loki shouted, positively embarrassed. Why was the inventor humiliating himself so much? These lines were cheesy and corny and were definitely not making Loki blush! Nuhuh, nope, no blushing here!

To the god's surprise, Tony sat back against the stool with his legs crossed and a goofy smile on his face. Loki sighed as he regarded the man wearily.

"What?"

"Has your attraction to me been enhanced at all by my genius pickup lines?"

Loki shook his head as he replied, "I would rather be at Barton's mercy right now."

Tony laughed at that and stood up.

"I must be leaving now, but I leave you with one more thing."

"Please don't let it be another one of your stupid pickup lines," Loki muttered as he ran a hand through his hair.

Tony stepped ridiculously close to the bars as Loki found himself involuntarily stepping forward to listen. Tony hid the smirk at Loki's closeness and instead hid it with a serious expression as he asked, "Do you know what I did last night? I looked up at the stars and matched each one with a reason why I love you."

Loki didn't have a clever retort for that one. Even if Stark was merely joking, nobody had ever mentioned 'Loki' and 'love' in the same sentence unless it was, "How I would love to get rid of Loki forever right now." Loki found his thoughts running too fast for his mouth and instead kept his mouth in a tight line as he tried to remember how to breathe.

Grinning triumphantly at Loki's reaction, or deciding he had gone too far and the god was ready to kill him, Tony gave the god a wink before exiting the room without another room.

On the other end of the spy-camera, Agent Phil Coulson sighed as he face palmed.

How would he explain Tony's constant flirting to the director?
