Thor had been watching the man sway for the better part of the last half hour; when he finally careens to one side and begins to tumble, Thor catches him with the same massive arm he'd been flexing a moment before and sets him back down on his feet, like an unsteady toy soldier.

When he pulls his hands away, it's not very far, as if he's expecting that Quill might topple over again. When he doesn't immediately plow over, Thor withdraws his hands entirely.

"I'm cutting you off," he says, directing a finger at Quill.
