Jim's first concern is the child who isn't here, by Loki's own admission. His murmured thanks to Felix helping him back upright is automatic rather than intentional.
"Well, y'should make sure to bring them back some sweets. Or...whatever it is they like from the party. No one likes to be laid up in bed none." It wouldn't do not to be cheerful and pleasant around the children who are here though. Jim's quick to salvage his smile and unlike Felix he doesn't bow to anyone unless the mage prompts him to. "Thank you all for coming, even. And to bring a gift too? We really appreciate it."
Jim takes a moment to quietly ask for the childrens' names from them (the older two, at least) and to his credit doesn't get either of them wrong even if his accent and inebriation makes them sound a bit strange to the ear.
"Are you hungry at all?" He glances up to make sure Loki is included in that offer. And little Eindrid too, of course, though his diet is more up to Loki than Una or Sigrid's. "We have a pretty big variety and I think some of the food from Felix's world might not be too far off things you might be used to." He's turning to Felix for confirmation of this which is kind of pointless considering he's already made the claim. Bruma is heavily influenced by Nord culture, after all. Maybe there's some similarity in the cooking? Only time will tell!
And well. As much as Jim wants to catch up with the god it's just not in his heart to make those kids stand there and listen to the boring adults talk when there's so much food so close to being theirs. If Loki approves, at least. Jim had to at least offer.
