"I'm too sober for this."
Stephen narrowed his eyes across the table, glowering at an empty space on the wall. Steve kept his spine awkwardly straight, fingers curled in his lap. T'Challa, Tony, and Nat had been arguing for about ten minutes straight and even the Sorcerer Supreme was getting a headache.
"You can't get drunk anyhow, what with the super serum," Stephen muttered. With how loud the other Avengers were speaking, he didn't really need to whisper at all. "I read your medical file, I know."
"That's not... Totally accurate," Steve mumbled back. He gestured with his eyes at the end of the table. "Thor once brought Asgardian mead that really uh. Brought me back."
Stephen's eyes widened a fraction. Even with his adventures across the multiverse, he'd never had Asgardian spirits. He was too scared to, frankly. Pursing his lips, he let out a quiet sigh of resignation.
"Honestly? If we both can survive this meeting, I'll get enough mead for us both to transcend space and time."
"Really?" Steve relaxed his posture slightly. "I guess I'll start really paying attention."
Stephen snickered into his glove. The torture would be worth the reward now.
