"Yes." With a wink, was all Loki gave in answer to her counter. Glad that she was playing back. Few people did really--which he supposed was understandable with his reputation on Midgard. "Your company is pleasant enough, and I would hope your cooking would match." He said smoothly as she mimicked him. "Besides, I could've been lying to you this whole time and would you be able to tell?"
His wink earned him a bright leap of laughter. She didn't know he could be so funny. He has a quick, playful wit about him that she likes a lot. She finished off her drink, feeling warm all over. "I don't think you've been lying to me," she declared. There was a soft flush to her cheeks. "I think you really enjoy hanging out with me. In fact, I bet you're even developing a soft spot for me." Maybe she was pushing it a little but the alcohol was making her brazen and bold.
"Confident aren't we? Again, how would you be able to tell if I'm lying to you? I am very good at it after all." Nor were there any tells to be read in his voice or expression. Just a sly smile.
Whether he had a soft spot or not, he did at least enjoy her company enough to not find being her escort a bothersome chore. She was clearly not holding his past against him. She also seemed to enjoy being around him. Both of those were marks Dr. Lewis' favor in Loki's estimation.
