Date: 2025-01-06 03:26 pm (UTC)20 min tops( then, more hesitantly: )
I had coffee( which is to say, no, he hasn't eaten. but he's definitely trying to pretend coffee counts for something.
the fussing isn't entirely unwarranted, here. )

Date: 2025-01-06 03:45 pm (UTC)is that a challenge?( he knows it's not. he's just trying to change the subject.
no one wants to pee that much. geeze. )
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 03:50 pm (UTC)Yes.
If you can manage in the next twenty minutes, I won't make you eat anything I bring.
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 03:53 pm (UTC)I can't even make that much coffee in 20 minutes( what a way to cry foul over a hole you dug yourself, barnes. )
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 04:08 pm (UTC)[but, you know, in the end, this is a more cheerful place for loki to be sitting for the next 20 minutes, so. result(?).]
I'll bring lihapiirakka if you can't manage xx
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 11:32 pm (UTC)be ready to bring a lot( because now he's hungry. )I'm bringing out the second coffee maker( look, a challenge is still a challenge. and it's not like he won't drink it all later. )

Date: 2025-01-07 02:07 am (UTC)And are we counting the coffee you've already had toward your total?
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 02:08 am (UTC)why not? four cups ain't much, compared to my body massbut are we including or excluding the arm?no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 02:41 am (UTC)How many cups to go, then?
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 02:46 am (UTC)the arm can't even process the coffee, but sure why not4 cups is about 2 lbsand I'm 260 give or take with the arm

1031 cups to go( ...he just downed one more. that was the pause. )

Date: 2025-01-07 03:17 am (UTC)fellas is it weird and slightly queer to have a heart flutter that someone's left a door open for you or]
Won't the food compromise your valiant efforts?

Date: 2025-01-07 03:23 am (UTC)fellas is it weird to like when he makes easily refuted excuses just so you can double down and change his mind cause it makes your heart feel funny? )

Date: 2025-01-07 04:20 am (UTC)in this particular corner, loki is absolutely giving a polite knock before letting himself into bucky's apartment, one arm full of a bag of pies.]
Are you properly done working, then?
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 04:36 am (UTC)seems like an "almost"?
when he turns and catches sight of the bag of pies, bucky grins, only then breathing, having finished the cup, licking his lips and setting the emptied mug aside on the counter to be filled again. )
Feels a little unfair that you brought me a feast, now, though. Should I order something for you?
( not that he'd ever complain of making a meal of snack pies, but he does want to know loki's preference, here. not like it's a date or anything, that's just a regular thing to ask, right? )
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 02:19 pm (UTC)it's all definitely not a date. it's just spending an evening together with food and drink because they enjoy each other's company, so. absolutely the farthest thing.]
I wouldn't call a pile of meat and pastry a "feast." [although it is, apparently, a hefty amount of those things from the slight 'whomp' as loki sets the bag down on the counter.] Besides, I imagine my tastes are a bit expensive. How many cups now?
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 03:01 pm (UTC)( a toothy grin emphasizes the tease as bucky pauses his work to pour another cup. )
Nine cups, now, so five more from the original four.
...how expensive? ( he asks with his left hand raising the mug to his lips so he can blow in it gently to cool it a bit more. his right hand raises to make the "expensive" hand gesture, but it seems he clearly knows how it's been co-opted to be a miniature heart also, given the angle and way he holds his forefinger to his thumb. 🫰🫰🫰 )
no subject
Date: 2025-01-07 03:46 pm (UTC)I'd have to imagine anything imported from Asgard would be fairly costly. Even compared to 1,000 cups of coffee.
[or maybe not. money isn't actually something loki spends a huge amount of time thinking about. it's more an aura of expensiveness than a practical point.
besides, all this is hardly the point. the point is that it's easier not to wallow when he's here (and maybe, just a little, to keep basking in the sensation of being some flavor of a favorite).
so have a light reassuring pat on the shoulder, bucky, before loki begins unpacking the top layer of treats.]
