(Tony entering the lounge looking down at his tab, aware of Loki's presence)
Tony - Hey reindeer games! How are the killing urges today?
Loki - (in a deep threatening tone) Strong. Very strong.
Tony - (startled) But I didn't even do- (looks up to see Loki glaring at Rogers and Co.) Loki no.
Loki - (Still glaring) I do what I wish.
Tony - (to Stephen) Steph, I thought you had a conversation with Loki regarding this.
Stephen - (Also glaring at Rogers and Co.) Yes, I did, and we are clearly in agreement.
Tony - (Exasperated) That's not what I meant when I told you to have a conversation with Loki and you know it! You can't go initiating everyone into my protection squad.
Stephen - (haughtily) I can, and I will.
Loki - (humming in agreement, still glaring with a killing intent) He can, and he will.
Tony - (facepalming) when did you two become besties? And why am I the reason for this catastrophic event! Loki no- don't bring out the daggers. JUst kEep glARing!
Rogers and Co. - (turning paler by the second) Maybe... we should... leave
Loki - (Glaring intensifies)
