Shopping
It was a perfect autumn day in Los Angeles and perfect for shopping, at least according to her wife. Vernique didn't miss the fact that Brandr had all Asgardian clothes, what little of those he had, and no Migard clothes. There was a statement that bodyguarding couldn't be done if one stood out. So shopping it was.

Svalin was on Solver duty for shopping. She knew next to nothing about Migard fashion or clothes in general and someone had to keep Solver from flying around the stores. Vernique was the expert shopper in the family and Svalin was more than happy to let her take point and say where they went and what they bought.

With toddler in arms and distracted by animal crackers, Svalin followed her wife and Brandr.

	"No, he's not killed! He at first avoids the consequences of his actions, but ends up having to go to bed without any food! It's a story for human babies! Which Solver sometimes qualifies as, you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Svalin almost asked what was so terrible about going to bed without dinner and how that was a serious consequence, but wisely did not. She could tell her wife was getting vexed and it was best not to push Tiny Human or there would be Tiny Human Rage.

She just shrugged. "If thou think this ist appropriate for his age, then we wilt read him such stories." Left unsaid was 'full of such nonsense'.

	Brandr has to restrain himself from asking if going to bed without food was all. Because that was hardly a punishment. Thankfully he manages. "Aye," he nods. Mostly to the unsaid bit though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vernique smiles a little as she sighs, knowing they're biting their tongues and appreciating it. She'll let them focus on watching Solver for a bit while she went to grab a new nightgown. She wasn't going to try that on in front of company. Especially company with whom Svalin's attitude was such that they'd need to talk in private later.

But for some reason, there is a dude in the lady's nightwear section of the store. A dude who approaches Vernique. An exchange is had, and as the dude finally turns away.... Vernique will start laughing. And laughing. And laughing.

	Svalin held Solver and was singing him a song her mother had sang to her when she watched the exchange. Then bewilderment at her wife's laughing. It had to be a Migard thing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Brandr in the meantime has found an umbrella rack and is disappointed that they were not weapons. He spins one casually then stops when he hears that much laughter and stares. "Ist Lady Vernique alright...?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-19 09:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye. Though I doth not know what ist so amusing about nightclothes." She would have to ask her wife about it later. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-10-19 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	She won't haveto wait long. As Vernique adds the acquisition to the to-be-purchased pile, she's still giggling. "He was ... and I shot him down... so he called me a.... it was hilarious." Okay, not superclear. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-19 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	Brandr just looks a tad confused. "I hope he did not insult ye milady?" Because while that did not warrant a sword, at least he could test what this umbrella could be used for. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-19 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	"What didst he call you?" Svalin asked. She wasn't too concerned. Her wife was laughing, which was a good thing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-10-19 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't want to say it in front of Solver. He learns too quick. But it's a word for women who are into women." Vernique was still grinning like mad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-19 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	"...I see?" Well she was clearly amused, so he wouldn't get to test out the umbrella. Shame. But a happy lady was always a plus, so he'd take that instead. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-19 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	"Now where art we going?" Svalin asked changing the topic and wanting to get out of this department before her wife made her buy more nightclothes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There's just the shoe store left." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-19 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	Oh good, only one store. "Then we art almost done I suppose?" It was only shoes left, surely that would be quick. Little did he know. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-19 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	"I wouldst rather fight a dragon," Svalin grumbled under her breath. How could one spend so much time in one store and need so many pairs of shoes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-10-19 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Sorry, hon," Vernique said cheerfully, and off they went. And oh, the shoes they showcased! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-19 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	Fighting a dragon sounded far more entertaining. But it was not to be, so Brandr just picks up the new bags too and follows along. As much as he hoped it wouldn't be, shopping seemed like something they'd do quite a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-19 10:54 pm UTC (link)
	Svalin followed her wife into the store and eyed the shoes. Not out of wanting them, but out of fear her wife will make her try shoes on and buy some. Svalin hated the way most of them pinched her feet and the sales people always gave her attitude because her feet were so big. She did admit the tiny shoes for Solver were cute.

	butterflybullet 2012-10-20 06:30 pm UTC (link)
	"How're you doing on the boot front, hon?" Vernique asked as she tried to be good and focus on Solver and herself, shoe-wise. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-20 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	"I art good. I hath two pairs." Svalin was about to say something else, but her sharp Asgardian senses picked up people screaming elsewhere in the mall. "I doth hear trouble." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-20 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	He'd been telling the truth earlier when he said he was much faster drawing a blade if it was at his side. Despite one hand being full of bags, the other already holds his drawn sword. "Aye." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-10-20 07:11 pm UTC (link)
	Svalin drew her own sword. "Thou must stay here with Vernique and Solver," she said to Brandr and then took off running toward the sound of screaming. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"...are lives going to be imperilled every time I shop for shoes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dashingly 2012-10-20 07:15 pm UTC (link)
	Brandr simply nods. He had planned on staying here anyway, that was why the sword came out anyway. Should this trouble come their way it would find its match. "This happens oft milady?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
