It has taken you weeks to finally see this through to the end, and I congratulate you. I would not be so lenient, if he were not there as well. Seemingly alone as well, at present. Just as well, then - loneliness never suited him.

But it does not mean that we will burn down a bar with our first night of celebratory drinks. I am not so disrespectful, and you should do well to remember that and stop suggesting it.

Seems there is one thing to outlast the life of the Aesir, and that is the stupidity of a Midgardian.

But the marriage of both is a formidable terror indeed.

[asofwar]

We do have examples of it.

[chilled]

A great number of them, beyond counting.

[asofwar]

Perhaps it would not be so, if they could watch themselves in a mirror...

[chilled]

Ah.

Perhaps the Lady Sif has never had the misfortune of glancing upon my brother gazing into a mirror. [ HE FLEXES ]

[asofwar]

If mirrors had a life of their own, some might have begged him to stop.

[asofwar]

[STILL MAD. YOU GET NO JOKING TIME.]

But perhaps the Lady Sif was not talking about your brother.

[chilled]

[ LOKI DON'T CARE DOT JPG ]

We are speaking of Fandral, then? I agree, his preening does make him look a posturing peahen.

[then again, loki's still on the throne right now. and she did just skip on to midgard against orders. and if he doesn't know yet, then it won't be her to get heimdall into trouble, for all his help.

and they've been friends for longer than she's resented him for his choices

so.]

[asofwar]

[a little joking time.]

He has it down to an art.

[chilled]

[ Ah, Sif. Ever transparent. She masters herself well, he must give that credit its due. ]

"Art" implies there is a cultural value to be found therein.

[asofwar]

There are a handful of women in all the realms we've been to who would attest to it being true.

Yggdrasil knows, they swoon over him worse than one would over a precious jewel.

[chilled]

All experts in the subject, no doubt.

And yet a jewel would serve them better.

[asofwar]

You forgot to make a remark about the fickleness of women.

[chilled]

My lady, I would never insult you so.

[ except he just kind of did ]

[asofwar]

Then don't. You can start by implying I had not caught onto that.

[chilled]

[ all conciliatory ] It was not my intention to insinuate thus. Truly, if women are fickle, it must only be those we see being such.

[ his mom is a saint ]

[asofwar]

[frigga's boy]

Fickle as some may be, there are men who would be their competition with their vanity.

[chilled]

And lo we return to the previous topic of our conversation. [ Fandral ]

[asofwar]

Fandral.

[chilled]

[ he also suspects Sif is probably talking about him as well but nope giving none of the fucks ]

It does make one wonder why those be considered women's arts when we know men who excel at them so well.

[asofwar]

[she is.]

Because it is men who assign the arts to each sex, and they do not like to be judged.

[chilled]

Perhaps our friend should become a handmaiden.

To help diminish the cause of judgment.

[asofwar]

If it were that simple.

[chilled]

'twould be a step.
