Open Stripper!Loki post (human AU)

[you_have_heart]

[The club is dark and the pulsing strobe lights are sure to overwhelm any who come in from the dark of the outside. There is a main stage where a lithe man twists and turns around a metallic pole, moving with the beat of the music. Surrounding the stage are patrons, some watching silently in rapt attention, other being more vocal in their appreciation of the dancer.

Should you approach the stage you will come up just as Loki sinks down to accept tips tucked into his strangely still-present thong.

Should you wait, Loki comes out into the club about 20 minutes after a platform takes him below the stage. He starts smoozing the crowd.

[Tony gave an uninterested hum]
Let's do something fun, god knows I won't be having any of that this weekend.You can pick, I need to knock a few of these out....[get out his red pen] DO THEY NOT KNOW HOW TO DO BASIC ALGEBRA?!?!?!?!? [He tilts his head so that he's looking at Loki, although the angle is a bit odd] Why am I teaching Intro to calc? Why???

[you_have_heart]

Blurred Lines should suit our needs nicely.

[He begins massaging Tony's rather tense shoulders]

Because you thought teaching in intro class would be easy and would give you lots of time to build your robots and have hot sex with me. Dear lord you are tense, are you sure you can't take some time off?

[maninatincan]

Not without losing the money. [Tony sighs] Howard cut me off after I refused to build weapons for him, remember? Froze my trust fund, too, that son of a bitch... [Tony tensed before relaxing into Loki's touch, looking back down at the papers he's grading.] I just really hate the grading; I swear when I get tenure I'll make my grad students do all of the grading. Honestly, I love the teaching, I do, you know the smart ones that actually come to office hours...

[you_have_heart]

Do yourself a favor and teach a higher level next time.

[Loki continues to massage him. They can't be tense for their routine, and he can't have him too tense later.]

Forget about Howard. You're making enough to get by now. Soon you'll get a professorship and everything will be fine.

[maninatincan]

You just keep telling me that....[Tony continues to make red marks on the papers on the vanity.] How much time do we have?

[you_have_heart]

Forty five minutes. Would you like some help with that while we wait? I would rather forgo my walk around tonight with the private dance.

[Loki had completed a degree from MIT as well in Astronomy He was planning on going to grad school, but just hadn't bothered yet. He was having fun and making good money, so why not enjoy life a little?]

[maninatincan]

Please? I'll treat you when we get home....[Tony gives Loki his best puppy eyes]

[you_have_heart]

Promises, promises, Anthony.

[He takes a spare red pen and half the stack and goes to work. Loki made a habit of learning to forge Tony's handwriting a while ago so only a trained handwriting expert could decipher the difference between the pages Loki graded and the ones Tony did.]

Oh my, these are bad.

[maninatincan]

Told you...this is what I get two weeks before winter break...I've been having nightmares about the final. Thank god it's going to all be on scantron....

[you_have_heart]

At least you will have plenty of free time over the break. I believe Natasha is planning a bar crawl New Years Eve. Also it's our turn to host Christmas.

[Most of their friends either didn't go home for the holidays or didn't have a home to go back too. They made it tradition to congrigate at someone's apartment, eat chinese food, exchange presents, then watch the worst scifi movies of the year.]

[maninatincan]

Just as long as your brother doesn't break our couch like he did last time...I mean really how did he even manage to do that? [Tony sighs and goes back to grade, albeit not quietly.After about three more papers Tony puts his pen away and starts to dress for the bridal party.]
What do you think? Iron Man or Captain America thong?

[you_have_heart]

I will inform him. [Things with Thor and Loki had gotten better, but they were still not to where they were when they were younger. Thor was still in contact with their family, but insisted on spending the holidays with Loki. Luckily being connected to Odin meant all Thor had to do was ask for the money for a new couch.]

The bride's wedding colors are red and gold, so I thought we could go with a color scheme similar.

[Loki flashed his own gold booty shorts.]

[maninatincan]

[Tony nods and dresses, slipping a wine coloured button-down over his shoulders.]
Hmm, which pants? Dress slacks or leather? Too bad I don't have your flowing locks, I could pass myself off as an Ann Rice character....

[you_have_heart]

We could do the businessman-bad boy routine.

[Loki pulls out his own custom made tear-away leather pants]

Dress clothes for you, leather for me?

[maninatincan]

Sounds good to me. [Tony smirks and puts his slacks on, contemplating this reflection in the mirror. He looks over at Loki, getting an eyeful in the process.] Ready to go, hot stuff?

[you_have_heart]

[Loki pulls on a leather vest that is little more than some glorified studded straps and buckles. Still standing he dawns stiletto boots that give him even more of a height advantage over Tony.

He saunters over to Tony and grabs his tie. Hauling him up to that their noses are almost touching he says:]

Are you?

[maninatincan]

[Tony smirks] For you, always.[Shifting to stand on his tip-toes, he moves to nip at Loki's nose.] Shall we?

[maninatincan]

Oh my god. Of all of the people that could have been there tonight it had to be her. [Tony flops dramatically on the couch.] You remember that girl I told you about, the one that keeps hitting on my during office hours? [Tony shivers in a "that's so creepy' way.] That was her....

[you_have_heart]

Yes, I could see how uneasy you were. [Loki flops on the other end, their legs tangling together in the middle of the couch.] Thus why I took her and gave the bridesmaid to you. You know you might have to switch classes now though.

Wouldn't want things to get awkward.

[maninatincan]

It's only two more weeks, and of that only a two more lectures, and I can avoid her during office hours. [Tony shifts so that he is snuggling into Loki's side, using him as a life-size teddy.] Hmmm....I need to shower. [His eyes start to droop and he unwillingly lets out a jaw-cracking yawn.]

[you_have_heart]

[Loki gently places an arm around Tony. They were not in a relationship, but both enjoy physical contact, so he doesn't mind snuggling up to Tony]

Yes, you do. You wreak.

Perhaps in the morning though? Tomorrow is laundry day so sleeping dirty will not hurt anything.

[maninatincan]

[After the word wreak, closet-cuddler Tony became dead to the world, shifting slightly and giving an occasional mumble.]
Can we send the pony home, jgahaphguie....cats...jlkghiosh....

[you_have_heart]

[Loki sighs but smiles, picking Tony up in a display of strength that one might not expect of him. He puts his roommate on his bed as gently as possible and goes to work stripping off Tony's shoes, pants and shirt, knowing the man likes sleeping in his boxers.

Poor guy still isn't use to the late nights.]

[maninatincan]

[Tony shifts, curling around the first thing he can find, which is was a all of the pillows on the bed.]
Loki?

[you_have_heart]

[Loki's just removed his pants when Tony speaks]

Yes, dear?

[The term of endearment was something Loki did not invoke often. They had made it very clear between the two of them that they were not in any sort of romantic relationship, despite all the physical intimacies they may indulge in from time to time. Still, Loki couldn't help but let the term slip in the more quiet moments such as this.]
