A Night's Rest
Apparently fighting off vampires and cultists earned a person a stay at the city's palace. The local king was most appreciative of having his city emptied of the vampires and cultists and had invited the Avengers along with Red Sonja and Conan to stay for the night in his palace.

Svalin cared not where she stayed, only that she had a place for Tryggvi and someplace to sleep. Hard or soft, it didn't matter. She was used to sleeping on the ground as much as she was used to sleeping in a bed. The girls were shown to one suite and the guys to another. In the middle of the room that connected to the two bedrooms was a large bathtub put into the floor. Servants filled it with steaming water. The same was in the guys' room. They were all expected at dinner in two hours.

Svalin carefully checked her weapons and equipment and laid the out one by one on a table in the room. Getting clean was not the highest priority for her.

	And with that help, Vernique eventually gets her drying her to stay turned under a bit. "Yeah, it's really nice to keep it from being a total boys club, no matter how nice the boys." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin nodded. "Aye. I art used to mine sisters and my shield-sisters. They art nice enow. Good warriors and can hold conversations." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vernique nods and smiles. "Yes, that too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin knew she was missing something and she had a good idea what it was. She just didn't have an interest in males outside of warriors in arms. "Wert thou...what do mortals say...dating...someone before we left?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I was not. Hadn't really been in a steady relationship in quite some time. Don't tend to be often." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ist there a reason or thou just not prefer steady relationships? If mine questions art too personal, I wouldst not take offense if thou doth not want to answer." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"It's not a problem. I guess I've just tended to be inclined for dating around. A whirlwind week or two of fun with one guy. A couple months later, a whirlwind week with another. Repeating with the same people sometimes, but still...flitting about a bit, you know? I have a tendency to flit and flirt but never do the whole one-on-one long-term connection with a guy, you know?"

	"I doth not know, but I wilt take thine word." Svalin smiled. "I hath never been in a relationship fleeting or serious. I doth not expect to be." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She smiles. "Careful what you say. Make too definite a statement, and some law of nature may bring Mr. Right along, and you two'll have to find a nice girl and settle down." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2010-05-19 08:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Who ist this Mr. Right?" she asked. She shook her head. "Nay. I am a shield-maiden and I wilt not give up the sword." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2010-05-19 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	"Mr. Right is a figurative abstraction for exactly what any particular person wants in a man. And Svalin, don't worry. I wouldn't think for a second that you'd quit the shieldmaiden thing for anybody. So obviously, Mr. Right in your case would be interested in fighting alongside you as much as all the...other fun stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I understand," she said. Mortal were most confusing a lot of the time. "Mayhap. Time wilt tell." "Art thou done?" She wondered how much time this hair thing required. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, I think I finally got it." And Vernique puts the finishing touches, and adjusts her dress. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thou doth look most lovely. All eyes wilt be on thee." Svalin smiled. "Seeing how we doth have some time before dinner, wouldst thou like to see the gardens with me? I hear they art most lovely." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2010-05-20 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Vernique smile appreciatively. "A fair share, anyway, even in this company. And I'd love to see the gardens, yeah" (Reply to this)(Parent)
