The Other Asgard
Svalin had promised Vernique a trip west when Svalin went, but Halbjorn was here in the city to get changed back into a male. Svalin still needed to go and get her other weapons and gear, but she could wait. Her brother was recovering from his injuries and Svalin knew what would help the process along. Mead. And lots of it.

There wasn't mead in the Avengers mansion, but Svalin knew where they could get some. With that in mind she went looking for Vernique. Perhaps she would accompany Svalin and Halbjorn to Asgard.

Vernique manages a smile again, but there's a slightly strange look to it. It's a funny thing, to reflect on the fact that people you know are going forth in their lives to the choreography of tragic poetry.

She's still just as impressed with Halbjorn's joie de vivre and eagerness to 'give it all away for free' as she was when they first met -- and with Svalin's much different but equally dutiful air, for that matter -- but when one really thought about it all... it was all really a lot to think about.

"Well, here's hoping there's plenty of time," she mutters with what can only be called a polite wistfulness

Halbjorn pauses, still having Vernique's arm. He turns, brushing her hair back and kissing her, for the moment, just on the forehead.
"Fair one, we hath today. I hath fine company, the best sister I couldst e'er dream to hath, and the pleasure of knowing what must be one of the loveliest women Midgard hast e'er beheld. And if tomorrow I die, then it shalt be with a smile on mine face and no regrets. For then, I wilt hath had today, and it wilt hath been time enow to be so blessed."

	She's listening to Svalin and nodding, understanding the perspective as best she can, with almost an aesthetic appreciation of it, at least, and then Halbjorn stops, does that, and says that. And looking at him for a moment, she smiles a lot more brightly and says "I really do like the way you think." They were..headed somewhere, weren't they? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He smiles at his sister, taking Vernique's arm again and falling back into step. "Of course, and it hast been far too long since I hath eaten proper food. And the Empress wast woefully without mead. Lead on then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin stayed quiet. The whole thing still left a bitter taste in her mouth. She hated what she had to do to her brother. It did not sit well and she was having a time coming to terms with it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Truly, twas not so bad. A life lived for the pure glory of combat, and seeking to vanquish some nigh undefeatable foe. Wert it not for the abduction, transformation, and bad food, I may hath volunteered to help her for a time. But the form ill suited me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
