"Now what's the fun in that?" All mischief, before Loki vanished out the door. It wasn't too long either before she returned with the pizza balanced in one hand. "Now, if I've understood the 'rules' correctly, I'm supposed to have this with either beer or soda, yes?"
"Hmm, do I care about the authentic experience, or am I being a rule-breaker?" Loki mused, making sure Christine's door was locked and secure before coming over to the table. "I leave it to you, Sweetling, as my host."
"I've read some interesting things about it on your internet..." But it was soda, which qualified it. Loki took one of the cans, and still moved to help Christine into her seat. "I feel like this needs a toast..what should we toast to?"
"To being together again, after a very long month." It was indeed, and Loki held up her can. "Skål!" My business here should take at least a week...I could extend it, if you think you can stand me long enough.
She'd learned an important phrase at least, and Loki clinked their cans together before taking a sip. Her expression was....interesting; it was clear she wasn't sure quite what to think. "Not too sweet, although that might be due to the carbonation. There's a slight aftertaste... Perhaps it's better with the pizza?"
"Sadly, it's probably still healthier than some of the things I've had to eat." Dry-toned, but honest. "Certainly the company can't be beat, however." Reaching out to twine their hands briefly, her thumb brushing the back of Christine's.
That fondness is returned, and amusement sparkles through their link with her comment. "I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm really not." Blue-green eyes twinkled. "How should I modify myself, Sweetling? A few warts, maybe saggy breasts? I don't think I want to look my age exactly..."
"At the risk of sounding arrogant, please feel free to enjoy the view." Loki is clearly teasing, and clearly aware of how arrogant and egotistical that sounds. Especially with the little mocking toast with her slice of pizza.
"Spoil my fun." Loki pouted, but it was in good humor. Sweetling, you are beautiful. Never doubt it. Sent with an accompanying image--the starlight playing along skin and hair, and Christine seemed to shine... Very carefully sent with no emotions either.
If she asked, Loki would confirm that yes--that's how Christine has come to look to them. For now though, Loki stayed quiet. "I honestly can't say whether I would want to kiss myself or not." Mused around a bite of pizza, clear that Loki was trying to imagine it.
Honestly, Loki wasn't sure if they'd be able to stand themselves or not. It would....depend. On a lot of things.
"Hmmm..." Loki paused mid-bite, considering for several breaths. "It...wouldn't be real, although I could certainly fool your mind into thinking it was."
