"Loki," she says. "You can hate it, if you hate it. Tony would have."

Then again, if Tony Stark wanted to veto Loki getting closer to Cosima, he shouldn't have dissolved back into the Fade, in her very professional opinion.

"I don't know exactly what went down, back where you're from. But Loki volunteered that Tony told him to stay away from Research the first time he was here, without my asking. Probably why I only knew him a little; he was in Diplomacy before. Said the animosity was one-sided but that he'd respect it if I didn't want him because of Tony. I asked Loki why Research this time and he said," ticking off her fingers, "he knows some theoretical physics, he likes keeping busy, and he knows Mobius. I've had worse resumes."
