Is there anything I can just hold? Not sure I can use utensils at the moment.
[He watches as she moves to lay down and reaches a hand out to touch her arm. It seems that the touch helps to anchor him to the real world just a little bit better.
He does appreciate that she is careful to not let the flames burn him. He worries momentarily for the bed, but reasons that if it actually catches fire she would say something about it.]
The man I got it from said it would last about 2 hours. What time is it now?
[Hot and sour, something with a kick because that's what she was craving it...and wanton strips.
His touch is welcomed, and she doesn't want to get up. Instead...she cheats, concentrating on her magic to have a cup of soup come to them. The steam wafting in the air.]
It's nearing midnight....and the soup is in front of you. You'll want to sit up slowly.
[This is one of the reasons he likes Wanda. She's very good at flattering him. That and she's a very bright young woman who plays along with his drugged out hallucinations.]
But this is not a cat. It's cat-head Thor. Thor likes wontons.
[He flips his hand over and gives hers a gentle squeeze. Once more the physical contact seems to ground him, helping the hallucinations seem less real.]
You know you don't have to wait for me to take dubious drugs to come over. If you want company you need only ask.

[Loki sits up probably too slowly, but he does eventually get into a sitting potition. He looks down at the bed and at his legs]
Huh. Legs.
[He takes the cup of soups gently in his hands and begins sipping. The spice feels very good.]
no subject
[..More chuckling. Oh this is quite entertaining, but, she does sit up with him.]
There's wonton strips too, if you want something with a different texture.
no subject
[He gestures to the bedside table where a gold amulet rests]
One does not want to try to calibrate a teleportation when drunk. Or high, in this case.
[He takes a long sip of soup]
Perhaps later. My brain is currently recognizing the soup as actually soup, I don't want to potentially ruin that.
no subject
[Something she should look into, really. A plan for if or when something bad happens...losing people, or just..feeling the need to get away.]
Take your time. I didn't know how much to get, so I asked for a large. More than enough for two people.
[Her eyes drift back to the ceiling.]
...Okay, I think I see the cat-head Thor now.
no subject
You are a blessing, Ms. Maximoff.
[Loki looks up at the ceiling again while taking a looooong sip of soup.]
Yes, he's been trying to have a staring contest with me.
no subject
I think you're one of the few people who think that of me.
[Which is both sad, and amusing in her state.]
Has he? Have you tried giving him treats? He might gain your trust and then you could pet his fur.
[...maybe she should adopt a kitten soon. Something small and sweet to take care of...and soft fur to pet.]
no subject
[Loki thinks for a minute]
Do you think he'd like the wontons?
no subject
Indeed, you do! Taste, style, all of the above.
[...well that is a damn good question.]
...I don't know if cats should have wontons.
no subject
But this is not a cat. It's cat-head Thor. Thor likes wontons.
no subject
But that makes him part of a cat. Do you want him throwing up on your bed? I'd want to avoid that.
Feeling better?
no subject
[He looks around the room carefully, seemigly taking inventory of things Wanda can not see.]
Well, my legs are back and the plant has stopped making rude gestures. I think it's coming to an end.
Your hair is still made of fire though. Are you sure that isn't actually happening?
no subject
Her eyes move to the plant, wondering what sort of rude gesture it was making...and Loki's legs are back. Good.]
You might need another ten minutes then. My hair is not on fire, only red....well, more auburn, I suppose. Whatever they call it.
[She checks it for a moment but shrugs.]
Nothing else is on fire.
no subject
[Though it's funny, her hair is on fire, but not giving off any heat.]
I am very grateful you came over.
[He would have gotten through it okay, this wasn't the first bad trip he'd ever been on, but it was easier with another person there.]
no subject
[Maybe a flooding one because...no wait, her thought got away from her there. Oh well.
She looks pensive for a moment, thinking things over...and reaches out to place her hand on his.]
Thank you for inviting me...I needed tonight.
[Something different from her every day life. Something that was a great distraction to things...and it's better than sitting in her room alone.]

no subject
I think, that's why we're friends. I'd expect you to do the same if the roles were reversed.
[A gentle squeeze of his hand to confirm that. An odd sort of friendship, but it works for them.]
I'll keep that in mind, but, if you want me over anytime, you can say so.
no subject
[He finishes off the soup and lays back down.]
Ah, cat-head Thor is gone. That's definitely good.
no subject
If I ever find someone who has that substance, I’ll be sure to share it with you.
[ Her doing anything of the like? It sounds hilarious to her. Good news, at least Loki was back to his “normal” state. ]
And no cat vomit to deal with.
no subject
Thank goodness. That would have been a lot of vomit.
[He looks over to Wanda, his pupils returning to a reasonable size.]
Thank you.
