Usually the increasingly-regular lunches with Stark started with at least a pretense of Stark coming into the clinic for a reason. It was actually funny that now, when both of them had injuries that might benefit from being looked at and checked, it was almost like they'd silently agreed to meet in the café area instead. Or at least, Stark hadn't turned up in his usual timeframe. It seemed entirely possible that Thor had communicated their break, and Stark had entirely reasonably decided that there was no further need to play nice.

Whatever the reason, Loki had gotten used to taking a break in the middle of the day, whether or not he actually spent that time eating. The café was as good a place as any.

Since he was still down an arm, Tony had chosen salad for lunch. Waldorf Salad, another New York classic. A fork was easier to negotiate and far more dignified than struggling with a burger.

"So. You seem well." His tone was muted but more admiring than resentful. Gods and their expedited cell repair.
