"You're totally surrounded by Asgardians, with all the gods' tendency to see in big-picture terms. Perspective can be hard to find. But really, you've done well with it... and will continue to do just fine."

"...right. Good point." She smiled. "I'd love to come over there for a while to lean against all that reasonableness, but I don't want to leave while she's like this."

"I could take a few days and come down and help out, and stay at a motel nearby or something, if that wouldn't be too awkward?"

"I... actually, that would be great, if you could just try to be careful with Kael. He's on the rotation ... was. I'm not really up for it these days, weird though that is. But anyway, he's sensitive. But it'd be good to have you around."

"No problem, I won't even come down there and risk anything - I'll get a room a few blocks away. So you can come visit any time for a couple hours, but not have to get too far off."

"I don't know how long I can get away, but I'm pretty sure I have a lot of vacation time built up, and its pretty quiet. A few days, maybe a week anyway. We can have dinner when I get down there."

"Good. That'll be great. I... don't want to just dump everything on you like this. Is your family okay?"

"My family is fine, and Alpha will be ok without me for a bit. I meant it when I said I wanted to see if we could make being a little more serious work - which comes with some boyfriend duties, like trying to be there for you now and then. I'll catch a flight as soon as I clear the vacation time."

"Okay." And Vernique, somehow, blushes. "Thanks. Looking forward to seeing you."
