Thor and Drax: Drinking buddies

Location: Knowhere

A group of people stared in amazement as Thor flew past them. He landed in front of the Boot of Jemiah and placed Mjolnir on the ground. A very exhausted Thor entered the pub and looked for a unoccupied seat. There was a free one directly at the bar, next to a man with gray skin and red tattoos all over his body, so he took that seat.

"Give me the strongest drink you have." Thor ordered.

"I would think about that again, the strongest drink they have could kill even me...if I would drink too much of it of course." The man next to Thor said.

"Do not worry about me, I am from Asgard." Thor said "I bet that I can drink whatever the keeper of bars (sorry, I couldn't resist XD) will bring me in one sip."

The man took the bet: "If you manage to do so without falling from your seat, I will pay the next drink you order."

The barkeeper brought Thor's drink. Thor took the cup and, as he claimed earlier, drank it in one sip. He smashed the cup to the ground and shouted "Another!"

"That was very impressive! I guess that I have to pay the next one then."

"Thank you, but I have to admit that it is a little bit stronger than I expected. What is your name?" Thor asked.

"My name is Drax." He answered "But I am also known as The Destroyer. And what is your name?"

Thor laughed "Haha! My name is Thor, son of Odin."

"It is nice to meet you Thor, son of Odin. But were you laughing about my name?" Drax asked.

"I was not laughing about your name. But I once battled a being who was called The Destroyer, and ironically I was not the one who was destroyed in the end."

Even Drax got the irony about that and started to laugh "Hahaha! That truly is ironic!"

Drax noticed that Thor looked exhausted and asked "Did you have a long day? You look very tired."

"Aye. I battled Marauders for the entire day, there are much more of them than I imagined." Thor answered. "You do also not look like you had a nice day."

Drax saddened immediately "That is because my wife and my daughter were killed 3 years ago."

"I am truly sorry to hear that my friend." Thor said "I know how it feels to lose your loved ones. Just one year ago my mother and my brother gave their life to save me and my Lady Jane."

"But you do not seem to be as saddened about your loss as I am." Drax said.

"My mother and my brother died a honorable death, and I always remind myself that they have gone to a better place. I do not know if you believe in afterlife, but if you do, you must always think that your wife and daughter are in a better place now."

"Yes, I do believe in afterlife. I have to thank you friend Thor, that really makes me feel a little bit better."

"You are welcome my friend."

They drank silently for the next couple of minutes, until Drax turned around and noticed a few aliens outside.

He asked "Is that your hammer outside, friend Thor?"

Thor also turned around and answered "The one that fools are trying to steal? Aye, it is mine."

"It does seem to bother you." Drax said "Well, it seems to be very heavy."

"It is much better than that my friend, Mjolnir is enchanted."

Drax started to laugh again "Enchanted? I wish my knifes where enchanted so no one but me could pick them up."

"It is indeed very useful, there have been a lot of my enemies have tried to lift Mjolnir"

"So you do not want me to stop them from stealing your hammer?" Drax asked.

"It is impossible for them to steal it, but if it would make you feel better, I would be pleased to let you do so." Thor answered.

"Thank you friend Thor. Nothing makes a man feel better than a good old bar fight." Drax said while going outside.

"I could not agree more my friend. I could not agree more"
