There are reasons for this change. She'd try to explain it if he asked, how she's relieved to not be keeping that horrible secret from him anymore and that since he didn't freak out last time she thinks it's allowed now.
She'll set his container in front of him and pour him some tea before she sits. She isn't sure what to talk about, so she'll tell him a story. It's a Loki story; all her best stories are Loki stories. It's about the time Sigurd the Ever-Glorious, first hero of Asgard, came to steal Gram, the sword of truth. Sigurd was invisible, and also such a bad flirt they never figured out who he was actually flirting with; Loki was a chatterbox and also a swashbuckler. There was witty banter, epic fighting, a broken window, a fall into a dumpster, and eventually Sigurd walked away with the sword.
"And by the time Loki got out of the shower, dinner was ruined. Salmon just can't be reheated well so he had to start all over."
It's no surprise that she clearly loves Loki. But there's no sign they were ever romantic. Just friends.

In case he was worried about that.
