Though it may be a no to the shared shower, Tony isn’t heart broken. He doesn’t take too long, though he does make a point of washing his hair quickly before shaving and dressing again. Loki’s presence has reduced the anxiety of wetting his head a great deal but his habits are hard to break.

Breakfast is quick, a JARVIS provided continental affair shared because all of the Avengers and Loki as Cap goes over their marching orders for the day. The next week or so is much the same. Breakfast. Clean up New York. Meet with leaders. Dinner. Asgardian lessons or sometimes films, and then a separation of the majority of their members before Tony and Loki slipped off to bed. Tony can honestly say it’s the most time he’s spent with any number of people, but he doesn’t exactly hate it.

By the end of the week, New York more or less working again, the group splits. Steve heads to DC to work more closely with SHIELD, Tony or or less nopes out of that but his connection with Loki isn’t something that can be overlooked or allowed to just carry on without study.

And it’s for that reason, not long after the team’s dispersal, that Tony and a rather sharply Midgardian dressed Loki head down to HQ. Ostensibly, it’s because there has been Chitauri technology detected in Europe and they want a consultation, but as Tony flies them out of New York, he can’t help but state how he really feels.

“I had having a babysitter.”
