New Years
The beginning of a New Year, a time for new hopes, new experiences to come. A time to reflect on times past, remembering fond memories happily and trying to put less pleasant thoughts and experiences in the past.

It is a time of renewal, a time of rebirth. And for much of the world, it is a time of celebration. This is no less true for the super hero set as anyone else. If anything, they just have that much bigger of things to look forward to.

	"Aye, tis. All those of my training wear them." And not a lot else apparently. "I enjoy the water, but tis unseemly warm. It hast its benefits though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Griffen had been convinced to leave the latest scientific journal behind. Parties weren't his thing but he was going to try and have fun. Things had been very busy and so he thought that a nice party with people who were supposed to be pretty cool would be nice. Nothing would go wrong. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It definitely suits you. What kind of training?" Vernique asked before smiling at the guy trailing behind. "And you are?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2009-12-30 06:21 am UTC (link)
	"One of the Bearsarks of Asgard." he replies, quite pleased, only now noticing Griffen is even there. "Ahhh, this ist Griffen. A fine fellow. He needst get laid more oft yet, but his lessons art coming along well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Griffen turns many funny colors when Halbjorn is involved. He is just a little embarrassed by some of the things the large man often says. The state of his sex life is one thing he doesn't want discussed even though that nice girl Cindy keeps letting him take her out. "It's nice to meet you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy appeared in the doorway from the kitchen with the usual mega-mug of coffee. "Are we under attack again?" It's said with a smile. Her mood has improved quite a bit in the last couple of days. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-30 07:01 am UTC (link)
	"A Bearsark? Well that's interesting. Etymologically, for starters." "Nice to meet you too, Griffen. Whatever lessons you're taking, sounds like you're in good hands." Vernique nods to Sammy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nay, Avenger. We art here by invite. Friend Griffen ist being taught to use sword and bow along with the other mortals," Svalin said. "Wouldst come in handy if we art e'er attacked by undead and demon hordes again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2009-12-30 03:59 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, I believe thy tongue knowst it better as berserkers. Tis mine honor to stand the front lines one day. Mine sister Svalin ist training to become one of the shieldmaidens. And aye, Griffen hast been quite dedicated to his training, and ist showing some improvement." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-12-30 08:21 pm UTC (link)
	"I know," Sammy assured Svalin. "It was a joke. Call me Sam, please." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	madscienceman 2009-12-30 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	Griffen gives Sam a shy smile. He isn't feeling overly sociable just yet. "I am. Halbjorn and Aridis are good teachers. Svalin has also started teaching me things too," Griffen says after a moment. "They're all good teachers as well as good friends to have." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-12-30 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	"Thou'rt most kind, Griffen," Svalin said and fondly placed a hand on his shoulder. "Thou'rt a good friend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-30 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Ah,that's nice." Vernique says after listening to the various statements and smiles. "Please forgive the random idea, Svalin, but have you ever considered pinning the braids up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-12-30 09:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Nay, I hath not considered it." She pondered this. "It wouldst help in battle I doth suppose." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-30 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	"Never hurts to try a safety precaution that looks good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-12-31 02:48 am UTC (link)
	"I say let her have her way with your hair. You won't regret it," Sammy advised. "It will look good and be fight-ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-31 03:19 am UTC (link)
	"Why thank you, Sammy." Vernique preens just a little. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-12-31 03:56 am UTC (link)
	"I wouldst not object," Svalin said. She was trying to get along. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-12-31 04:03 am UTC (link)
	"There's no reason we can't kick ass and still look good," Sammy said. "Our mothers do it, and they're all beautiful, dangerous women." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-31 04:24 am UTC (link)
	"Darn right." Vernique smiled. "If you've got a moment, Svalin, could you sit down and let me give it a try?" Vernique knew she wouldn't have too many opportunities to seize. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-12-31 04:31 am UTC (link)
	Svalin was a little confused. "Why doth one need to look good in battle? It doth not take long to be covered in blood, sweat and dirt." Svalin nodded and looked for a place to sit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-12-31 04:38 am UTC (link)
	"Looking good is a battle tactic. It distracts weak-minded opponents." Sammy was warming to the subject. "Any advantage in a fight is one worth taking." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2009-12-31 04:57 am UTC (link)
	Vernique makes affirming noises to Sammy's statements as she finds and indicates a chair for Svalin. She gets out some hairpins -- she wouldn't leave her bedroom without them -- and once Svalin's hair is more properly within her reach, she gets to Arranging. "See, if we just wind it up a bit, it's going to look downright regal." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-12-31 04:59 am UTC (link)
	Svalin frowned. "Trolls, orcs, giants and others art not swayed or distracted by looks in battle. They art not as weak as mortals." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-12-31 05:02 am UTC (link)
	"You don't find a lot of literal trolls, orcs or giants on the West Coast," Sammy pointed out, "though in high school it seemed like only the troll-like guys were asking me out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
