Enjoying the outdoors (open)
Svalin was outside brushing Tryggvi who happily grazed on the grass around the mansion. Master Jarvis had been most helpful in providing Svalin with hay and oats for Tryggvi and brushes to take care of his coat. The day was warm, the sun was bright and it was nice to be outside the building. The air was thick with pollutants and Svalin did notice.

Svalin had never been one to sit indoors much.

Tryggvi side-stepped and nudged Svalin. She pushed back and he pawed the ground. "Stop that," she said. He too was not used to being inactive.

	He smiled back. Who wouldn't smile back at a pretty girl. "Are you sure you're not Canadian?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He was about to explain and decided to let it go. A Mountie would have kissed his horse's head too, if the horse had wings. Pictures were snapped by the tourists wandering the grounds, but he ignored them. "What do you think of Lady Liberty?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She ist most impressive," Svalin said as she looked up at the statue. "We haft nothing of the like in Asgard." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She is," he agreed. "It'll be a few weeks still until visitors are allowed at the crown level to see the view." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You know, I have no idea. This is a national park, run by the Federal government and not the state of New York. I think it has to do with the age of the statue and the number of people it can reasonably accommodate." He looked up at it, lowering his voice and leaning a little closer to Svalin. "Personally, I've flown over after dark and sat on the crown to see the view. At night it's especially nice with the city lights."

	"It sounds like it ist quite the sight," she said. "Wouldst thou showest to me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'd like that. If you're free, would you like to fly with me tonight?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 05:17 am UTC (link)
	"Aye. I wouldst like it, verily." She smiled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	What a great smile. She was very easy to get along with. "Midnight on the back lawn? I'm afraid Tryggvi won't be able to land up there. I could bring him something special instead?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 05:35 am UTC (link)
	"Midnight," she agreed. "Aye thou mayest. He ist fond of carrots and sugar cubes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-13 05:49 am UTC (link)
	"Carrots and sugar cubes," Misha repeated, looking back at the horse. A kid was growing bold and walking slowly toward them. "We've got company." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 05:57 am UTC (link)
	"Aye." She smiled and waved at the kid. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-13 06:16 am UTC (link)
	Misha smiled as well as the kid stopped. In awe, Misha thought. Svalin was very tall and blond, and the kid at the right age to be hormonal about Svalin and fascinated by a winged horse. "You'll be getting a lot of attention around New York until you start blending in," he offered. "Has Anya tried to take you and your sisters shopping yet?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 06:20 am UTC (link)
	"Nay, she hast not. She hath been most preoccupied with a project and hast not been around." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-13 06:32 am UTC (link)
	"I'd say that's weird because Anya loves to shop, but it's not really because she's a workaholic when it comes to her projects." His voice was both amused and proud. "I'd suggest Sammy, but she's more likely to show you were to buy the best guns and other weapons." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 06:35 am UTC (link)
	"Finding new weapons ist not a bad thing," she said. She motioned to the child to approach. "Thou mayest touch Tryggvi. He doest like to be petted." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-13 06:44 am UTC (link)
	Misha watched the kid step up and touch the horse. He guessed the kid had been pretty bored up to now. "It's not. If you want something new, Sammy's your girl. Has your dad ever told you stories about Col. Nick Fury?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 06:46 am UTC (link)
	"Aye," Svalin nodded. She watched her horse sniff at the boy's hair. "He hath told us of Colonel Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-13 06:53 am UTC (link)
	"That's Sammy's dad, so she's a little gung ho about security. One day she'll be in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D. and we'll be giving her a hard time like our parents give Nick now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-13 06:56 am UTC (link)
	"Mine father hath oft said that Nick Fury ist one of Migard's finest warriors." She removed a cube of sugar from her pouch and offered it to the boy to give to the horse. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Dad says Nick has the worst job on the planet." Dad said it in a different way, but Misha didn't think she needed to hear it. "I guess you could say it's our turn." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-06-14 07:40 pm UTC (link)
	"I canst imagine how hard it ist watching a whole planet." She looked around. Tryggvi was attracting attention and people were starting to gather around him. "Perhaps it ist time to go somewhere else?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
