[Verity's smart, but she doesn't need to be to catch on to the way Loki had sidestepped every close encounter after that first night. Practically jumping out the window as soon as things got intimate, plus drifting away from the topic so casually after she vividly described a potential blowjob, by talking about rainbows. And now he's asking, why was it a one-time thing.
Typical too, the way he changes the conversation now after he'd been the one to ask, hinting at more of the idea that something was still off, despite his multiple apologies over the matter. But she doesn't push it. She's made her offers in the past and it isn't on her to keep dragging it back around if he wants to avoid it.
So instead she brings her focus back to what she was bringing him here for in the first place, leading the way as she steps out of the elevator and heads down the hall, taking out her keys to unlock her apartment door.]
It's a surprise. You know, the whole close-your-eyes, don't-peek ordeal. And you can't laugh about it either.
