He would offer X what comfort he could, if she needed it -- his fist against her bicep or his arm around her shoulders, words or silence.
But she doesn't. She has Elle and Bruce both, right now. They don't need him joining in, and they don't need him standing over them.
He turns a little away instead, to pay attention to Norman. The dragon is left out of this moment too, although he doesn't seem to mind it any more than Thor does. At any rate, it's only polite that they occupy each other, both for courtesy to each other and so that X and the others don't need to feel self-conscious about taking all the time they need.
Besides, he's genuinely curious. They didn't get a lot of time to talk before, and Norman is different than the other creatures termed dragons that Thor knows. And he's X's friend too.
