[In a way, the confining nature of the room benefits him again here. He's expecting Tony to be angry, an if Tony is angry without enough space to pace away from him or work off the energy, he might hit Loki.

Yes, it would be very convenient indeed for Tony to hit him.]
Actually, I was better off with you not knowing. I haven't lied to you, about how I knew you. We met in your tower, and I stole from Nick Fury, and you bade me drink with you.
I am not your Comrade though, and I was not your friend then. It was to be a last drink before battle, for I came to your world meaning to rule it.
[His words speed up slightly towards the end, as if he's afraid he'll lose his nerve and stop.]
That's why I was shocked to find you here an inmate. Because I came to do harm to your world, and you stood with them, and stopped me.
