I wasn't sure where to find you.

[Fenrir peeks out of the shadows- he totally hasn't been waiting for her to come see her shrine, not at all, what are you talking about?]

And I assume you've been busy, with everything that's been happening.

Offline

[asgardsheart]

I will never be too busy for my children - step forward, let me see you.

[ please tell her you bathed. ]

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[He totally bathed. When he moves toward her, he actually looks almost neat for once, hair brushed back, clothing without its usual tatters and bloodstains.]

I've already seen Hel and Jormungand. They seem cheerful as ever.

[You're really one to talk, Fenrir.]

Offline

[asgardsheart]

[ if her children are not, then sigyn certainly is cheerful. something bright is sitting on her lips and she moves over to press her lips to his forehead. ]

Then you've met. What have they told you?

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[Fenrir's nose wrinkles when she kisses his forehead, but he doesn't pull away.]

Mother, please-

[SOMEBODY COULD SEE THIS AND LAUGH AT HIM.]

-they- they said different things. Hel talked about Freyr, Jormungand spoke of the one who insulted you.

[And there's a weighted silence at that. He wants to know how Sigyn took it, or if she approves of Jormungand's approach.]

Offline

[asgardsheart]

Will you forbid a mother to show affection to her own son?

[ her smile is indulgent and sweet and it fades into soft disapproval as he mentions the one who insulted her. ]

He calls himself Pyro yet I prefer John. He spoke very unkindly to us all, the curse Freya had brought on the city inspired great anger and not only in him.

He acted like an ignorant fool but I would have Jormungand control his temper.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

I would try, [he grumbles a little, though he goes silent when she mentions Pyro.

So... not telling her about the threats to eat him alive, then.]

Travelers shouldn't speak to you, of all gods, like that. They have no idea... [Fenrir sighs, before looking a little hopeful.]

Only Jormungand?

Offline

[asgardsheart]

I would not have you hurting a Traveler for speaking out in a time of hurt. The curse had hurt them tremendously. He deserves another chance before any punishment is given to him. I will punish him, if the need arises.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

Alright.

[He heaves out a little sigh. Oops.]

I won't hurt him... anymore.

[Cough cough just move along, momma.]

Offline

[asgardsheart]

Fenrir.

[ she moves closer, all patience and zero accusation. ]

What has been done to him?

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

Nothing.

[He rolls his shoulder and looks away, a little guiltily.]

The little bastard has Baldr's regeneration power. So I- explained to him that he could potentially be tortured far further than the average human because of it.

Offline

[asgardsheart]

Potentially.

[ she nods her head, brushes her fingers through his hair. her hot headed children, really. ]

but he will not be.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[And he lets her, but only her. Sigh. Mother.]

Would you have me stand down while my blood is insulted?

Offline

[asgardsheart]

No. And you have not; you have given him a warning let us see if he heeds it. And I am certain he will, he is not a fool.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[He raises an eyebrow at that.]

You think far too highly of him. Even his own people think he's a fool.

Offline

[asgardsheart]

A fool. But not an utter fool.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

Keep believing in the best in people and you're going to see the worst of them, sooner or later.

[That's... a little harsh, so his face softens.]

I'm only concerned for your well being. You know I'd rip through a thousand of them if they ever hurt you.

Offline

[asgardsheart]

I know. And I would do the same to you, I'd sooner have them throwing their insults at me, I mind it very little.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[He sighs.]

...you should mind more.

Offline

[asgardsheart]

That would simply be one headache too many, my son. Tell me you are staying.

Offline

[asgardsclaws]

[He nods.]

They need me back here in the wake of the twins'... unfortunate losses. And with the way things seem to be heating up- I don't plan on leaving any time soon.
