First impressions
It had taken her awhile, but Grace had managed to locate Defenders HQ. Granted, she got lost a couple of times on the way there....but she was there now.

Her heart was beating loudly and felt like it would fall out of her stomach. Her palms were sweaty and her feet felt like blocks of cement.

She could do this. She wanted to do this for seventeen years. Well...granted, she didn't know who her father was until recently, but she'd still wanted to meet him just the same.

Inhaling and gathering her courage, Grace walked up to the door and pressed down on the buzzer.

	Still carrying Zoey, Halbjorn heads for the stables. He's pretty sure his sister will be there. If anyone is more regular about their schedule than he is, she'd be it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Zoey happily rode along in Halbjorn's arms. Giggling at the tiger as he followed and tried to pounce on things. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grace followed after the pair, laughing at the tiger's antics. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn reaches the stables, opening the main doors. "Svalin, we hath a guest, sister. Zoey hast brought her new friend to see Trygvi and Snowflake." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Svalin was in the middle of checking Tryggvi's hooves when she heard her brother call. "I wilt be right there," she said and released Tryggvi's hoof. The horse affectionately headbutted her. "Stop that," she chided. She placed a kiss on the animal's head and left the stall.

"Hail brother and well met. Who ist our guest?" Svalin asked. She was typically dressed her in battle gear, but her face was sweaty and dirty.

	"'Tis nice to meet thee," she said and took the offered hand. She shook it once and then released it. "A friend of Simon's ist always welcome." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You could be a Defender too!" Zoey squealed. She tapped Halbjorn's shoulder for him to put her down. "I'll show you Snowflake!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye, thine mother ist a worthy warrior. Father hath told us tales of Carol Danvers." Svalin watched Zoey. "Remember thine lessons with handling thine horse." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She's mostly retired now, but yeah...she's one of the best. Of course, I'm a little biased." Grave Zoey a smile. "I don't what Mom would say if I told her that," she said, "But I would love to see your horse." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn sets Zoey down, and steps out of the way. They've gotten used to him, but he still makes the horses a little skittish sometimes, best to give them space. Especially around the child. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Zoey ran to Snowflake's stall, grabbed the halter and then stepped inside. A moment later she lead the horse out of the stall. "This is Snowflake," she said proudly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn can ride, fairly well at times, but horses don't like him much, so its not a common thing. Mostly, he stays out of the way, stays quiet, and watches Grace's ass while Zoey's attention is elsewhere. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You need to meet Tryggvi!" Zoey said as she lead Snowflake back to his stall. "He's awesome! He has wings and can fly!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
