WHO: Tony Stark and Loki Laufeyson
WHAT: Touching base
WHERE: Loki's
WHEN: Today

More and more Tony was feeling like he should have an answer for all of this, he'd never found himself in a place like this, where he he was faced with something that he couldn't solve. But that was exactly where he was now, in this place with no real answers to be found. It was endlessly frustrating, between that and the ever complicated person that was Steve and well everything else really. All in all being in this place was a lesson in frustration for Tony and he was never entirely sure how to deal with it.

But he was doing his best, soldiering on through it all and trying to focus on the things he did know how to fix. Like coming up with something for the houses and adding to his own and well then there was Loki. Who wasn't actually someone who needed to fix as much as he was someone that Tony liked spending time with, if only because he felt like it was an interaction that didn't leave him feeling like he'd somehow missed something at the end.

Though he had no breakfast meats to bring today Tony thought maybe he could probably get away with a visit regardless.

He did have a couple of books though, because he'd seen that Loki was collecting the last time he'd been over so why not let him have first dibs before he dropped the rest at the library. "Brought you something." He grinned, because well he was determined to have a good day and this was all just a part of that.

"Or time for things you enjoy doing," Loki pointed out because he was pretty big on hedonism and he was pretty sure the man who owned a hot tub also was.

"Good for you. And surely there'll be another pretty person who shows up to distract you at some point." He adjusted his crown slightly and rose an eyebrow at Tony in amusement. Obviously life -- particularly life here -- was not all about hooking up.

But it didn't hurt, either.

"How do you feel about Mario Kart?"

"I like solving problems," Tony reminded Loki - sure sitting around building the same thing over and over again might not necessarily be fun for long, but it kept him busy and sometimes that was enough. But there were other fun things to do around here. The hot tub was good and Dum-E was here so that was kind of it's own sort of pleasure that Tony hadn't quite had the chance to bask in as much as he might have liked to.

He huffed and nodded, "Some day maybe," For now though? He thought maybe he was better off not letting himself get caught up in all of that. Or at least taking a break from the pining he'd been doing since Steve showed up. He was better than that.

There was always older Steve. Sure nothing was ever gonna happen there. But he could look.

"Mario Kart? Like the game? Oh man I love it." Tony grinned, "Got all the high scores back home." He admitted with a laugh, because of course he did. But it was a great game why wouldn't he play it and absolutely smoke everyone else who tried to show him up?

"Constantly?" Loki asked, mostly teasing. Because yes, he was aware. Both of the Tony's seemed keen on keeping themselves busy with whatever little thing came up next and it was -- it wasn't a bad thing. Because someone had to do it and it wasn't going to be Loki -- had had problems of his own. But building air conditioners wasn't the same as problem solving, really.

Not that he felt the need to say so. Yet.

Instead he shrugged and then stood up in one smooth movement, going to his tv (large and flat screened, it had been a very good steal) and opened up the entertainment center, tossing a controller over at Tony. "A pokemon might not have been the only thing that followed me home in that world," he said. "Let's see how good your high scores really are."
