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.

	"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)

	team_mascot 2010-01-28 04:17 am UTC (link)
	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)

	Grace gave her a warm smile. "She's very pretty, Zoey," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grace let out a laugh. "I was telling Zoey how I always wanted a horse when I was her age. My mom wouldn't let me have any pets." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can't ride him yet, but one day I will. Svalin is teaching me to ride now. One day I'll be as good as her." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sure you will," Grace said, beaming at her. (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)

	shessomarvelous 2010-01-29 04:24 am UTC (link)
	"Wings?" Grace blinked. "Like...Pegasus?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2010-01-29 04:34 am UTC (link)
	Svalin whistled and Tryggvi came out of his stall. The door was never shut because of how he had been trained. The all white winged horse came out and stopped next to his mistress. "This ist Tryggvi," Svalin said as she patted his nose. There may have been a cube of sugar slipped to the horse as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shessomarvelous 2010-01-29 04:51 am UTC (link)
	"He's beautiful...." Grace said, just in awe of the winged horse. "May I pet him?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2010-01-29 05:00 am UTC (link)
	"Thank thee," Svalin said. "Thou may." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grace walked to the side of Tryggvi, stroking the side of his neck. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He's fun to ride," Zoey said after she came back from putting her horse in his stall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
