Thor watched with some amusement as this human squirmed under his attention. "Not a god," was right, he was practically a worm. Thor felt almost sad, looking at him as he prattled away about things he clearly didn't understand. The poor man's sense of scope was so small that he thought Odin ruled over a measly few kingdoms on Midgard. It was clear to Thor that the Midgardians had completely forgotten their place if this was how they remembered their ruler and Allfather. The pieces were beginning to fall into place in his mind, he was seeing why Odin had been in such a hurry to send him. Thor's contemptuous gaze returned to the man in front of him, prompting the tiny mortal to take a step back out of fear. Thor could smell the fear in his sweat, and was sorely tempted to unsheathe Jarnbjorn and relieve the man of his head for daring to profane the Allfather.

However, then he mentioned his boss. While Thor wasn't keen on being bossed and led around by Midgardians, he was intrigued to see where Banner would lead him. If there was a hierarchy to whatever was ruling Midgard in Odin's absence, Thor wanted to see who was at the top. It seemed more likely then that he would meet a God, or whoever was currently claiming to be king of Earth, or at least someone that had a better clue of what was going on than the poor fool in front of him. Then, once he met that person and got a better grasp of the situation, he would kill them and take his place as regent. Simple.

"[color=ed1c24]Oh, of course.[/color]" Thor said, his look of disdain vanishing in an instant, and replaced with a genial grin. "[color=ed1c24]You should have told me you were an envoy first. No sense in getting all riled up at you if you're just a lackey.[/color]" Thor slapped Banner on the back convivially as he was led out of the bar. "[color=ed1c24]Lucky you said something, I was just about to cut your head off.[/color]"
