    Summary

    “So what if I ate the cheeseburger?” Tony shouts, throwing a wrench at Loki’s head. The bastard dodges it easily as he stalks closer. “That doesn’t mean I belong to you!”

    “Oh, not to me,” Loki says lowly, a smile like honey slowly spreading its way across his face. “But with me? Surely you’ve heard of Persephone.”

    “A cheeseburger isn’t some fucking mystical pomegranate, you smirking lunatic.” It isn’t, it just isn’t. Not even close. "You aren't even Greek!" he adds, throwing another wrench which is dodged just as easily.

    Loki spreads his hands wide, posing like the showman he is. “I think you’ll find that a pomegranate symbolizes the fruit of the dead. Your cheeseburger, made of dead flesh, was topped with fruit. It’s close enough for the symbolism to bind.”

    “Ah-hah! There’s no fucking fruit on a cheeseburger,” Tony says triumphantly, finger pointing accusingly at Loki. “I fucking win, no going back to crazy town with you. I stay here in my workshop, and you fucking leave before I call the Avengers.”

    “Oh Stark,” Loki murmurs, almost affectionately. “A tomato is a berry, you ignorant fool.”

    Summary

    Senior padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi’s best friend, Ahsoka, pisses him off. After a few too many drinks, he decides that the perfect way to get revenge is to sleep with her master.

    A sober, hungover Obi-Wan is horrified to remember the plan, and even more horrified to find that Quinlan, perhaps-a-bit-too-eager partner in crime, has no intentions of letting him back out of Operation: Seduce Anakin Skywalker, a foolhardy yet foolproof plan.

    Emphasis, of course, on fool.
