Peter had worked long enough with Drax, but he was not expecting this from Thor. It felt very familiar to Quill. It was almost like when he had met his father. "Right because we need to stop that." Peter said with a nod.
He was not usually on the backfoot; he was the one going through the door first usually, but Thor was quite excited. He could get it though on one hand. If he was about to meet someone he admired.
Peter was impressed himself, but not nearly as much as Thor. A sucked in breath from him as Thor pushed his hood back. One hand reaching out for him. "Wait." He said. "Shouldn't we wait until he's not busy."
Peter followed after him down the stairs all the same. He was used to being the one rushing forward so for him to be following trying to keep him safe or at least from then being attacked.
Zeus meanwhile hadn't realized that anything was a miss yet. Since he was quite distracted by what he was doing. If there were to be murmurs then it would draw attention certainly. He hadn't heard anything yet.

Thor barely felt Peter’s hand graze his arm, swatting it away with a distracted wave. "Wait?" he scoffed, not even glancing back at the mortal. "One does not wait in the shadows for a legend, Quill! This is a moment of grand convergence!"
Down below, a brutal clash of axes echoed, but Thor ignored the gladiators entirely. He puffed out his chest and threw his arms wide.
"ZEUS!" Thor's voice cracked through the amphitheater like actual thunder, completely shattering the ambient roar of the crowd.
In the center of the arena, the combatants froze. A hush rolled through the lower tiers of the stands, a thousand divine heads snapping toward the stairs.
Zeus blinked. The King of the Gods shifted his considerable bulk on his floating dais, his thick brows knitting together in sudden annoyance. He picked up his glowing thunderbolt, twirling it idly as he scowled up through the glaring magical lights.
"Who dares interrupt the sacred bloodletting?" Zeus demanded, his amplified voice echoing with casual, dangerous authority. "Reveal yourself, interloper!"
Thor's grin only stretched wider. He slapped a heavy hand against his own chest, vibrating with pure joy as he prepared his grand introduction.
