The Intermission for Loki and Tony Stark's ongoing animosity train is officially over, cut short after Barnes' unexpected visit to the Tower was noticed: managing to lure Rogers down their way, along with Eir.. and Thor.
Much to the surprise of everyone except Barnes --who only a week and a half ago Tony had attempted to kill-- Tony's aggression and bite isn't aimed at Loki's back after his quick retreat: but instead at Thor, and Asgard especially, in turns.
It probably doesn't help that Tony is not a fan of the committee the argument turned into, holding him up from looking for his bailed caretaker; and from asking Barnes about where he might maybe find his apparent girlfriend down in the village. Or that, the more they ask; the more Thor tries to give them exactly what Loki had said he would, in the attempt to confirm any of what the Trickster had bitten out at Stark before he'd simply stepped out of the same window space Loki had thrown him out of four years ago..
