Walking After Midnight (open)
Svalin walked the upper battlements. It was still a few hours before dawn and she couldn't sleep. A dream had woke her and she could not find sleep again so she walked the battlements. There were guards stationed at regular intervals and they nodded to the princess as she passed. Svalin returned their nods as she passed, but that was the extent of her acknowledgment.

Most of the other inhabitants of Asgard were asleep, most were passed out. Asgardians celebrated as hard as they fought. The celebration had been going for days and Svalin had tired of it after the first night. She didn't see the point of drinking excessively for days.

The wind was cold as it whipped over the battlements. A stray thought popped in her head that if she were on Migard, the wind would be warm and it would carry the smell of salt. She was loathe to admit it, but she did miss being on Migard a little. She had been studying Hellenic and Roman warfare tactics and she missed having the books nearby. She also missed chocolate, but that went without saying.

Svalin took a deep breath and stopped walking. She looked out over the city and into the night.

"Thou knowst I love thee well, mine sister." he replies, hugging her back. "And thou wilt do well on thine own, show these new Avengers what Asgardians art made of."

Svalin smiled and released him. "Aye. They needst to see what true warriors art made of. I will miss thee most of all." Svalin loved her sisters, but her brother was more her kindred spirit.

"Aye. Thou art. Hail, cousins." Moira said as she approached. "Danielle wished me to remind you to take some care with that arm, Halbjorn."

Moira smiled. "She hath been hovering over several of our wounded like they were pups. I fare quite well, thank thee, and it is good to see thee as well." A pause. "Any word on the bridge?"

Svalin shook her head. "Nay. They art focusing on repairs to the city's defenses first." Which was more important than sending people back to Migard.

She nods. "Of course."

"Mayhap. It wilt happen at some time or another, but I must confess I look forward to putting the minds of those in Midgard at ease." One in particular.

Svalin smiled a little. "Doth thou have someone to get back to?" Just because Svalin had no interest in men or relationships, didn't mean she wasn't aware of others interest.

Moira beams at them both. "My thanks. And methinks he would enjoy meeting you."

"Aye, mayhap. Methinks Tony Stark wouldst appreciate I took few trips east, but to meet such a young man as might gain thy heart, it mayst be well worthwhile."

Moira smiles again. "I hope it shall be soon enough. My immediate family like him very, very well." She tries not to think how well they'll still like him once the Issues are Raised. What the Allfather told her was told openly and no secret, but that didn't mean it had gotten lengthy discussion yet. But it didn't take a scholar to know which line of the family was making a divisive choice.

Halbjorn heard their prophecy, of course. He has chosen not to think about it too much.
"Tis good to hear, thy father ist ver' selective. Thou'rt fortunate to hath such a father. He led the packs bravely."

Svalin had heard the prophecy as well. "Aye. Asgard ist fortunate to have thy father and the wolves as an ally."

Moira smiles and nods appreciatively. "The Forest hast always been glad to come to Asgard's aid. And I hath been very fortunate in many ways, aye."
