About a Boy
The recent trip to New York had been fun, but it meant time away from chores and practice. She missed her nightly sparring session with Brandr. Not only because he helped her improve her skills, but because she missed him too. The man had caused her a lot of confusion lately and had spent a lot of time in her head.

She was lost in thought as she groomed Tryggvi.

	Svalin actually startled a little, which was rare for her and an Asgardian. "Pardon?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin tilted her head and paused grooming Tryggvi. "What didst Brandr do?" she asked. "I wast not aware that he didst something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, he was a bit of an idiot about Rory, but otherwise, he didn't 'do' anything but get a ten from you this weekend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thou wanted to talk because I gave him a ten?" Svalin asked. A pause. "How wast he an idiot about Rory?" Svalin was getting a little more confused about this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Why wouldst he think such a thought?" Svalin asked. Yup, getting more confused by the moment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know, maybe so he could frame convenient narratives to get in the way of his asking you out. I'm sure you've got some, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-11-25 11:32 pm UTC (link)
	"He ist...hath he told thee that he ist interested in me?" He had never shown interest in her outside of their sparring matches. Or had he? Svalin would be the first to admit that she wasn't good at dealing with people outside of battle and the practice yard. Aridis was the one who could talk to people and knew what they wanted.

	"Not explicitly. He's worried about duty conflicts. And that's fine. If you two decide you can't date because of duty conflicts, don't. If you decide you want to, and obviously there's no rules against it, do. I just want to sort of establish that this sort of thing is allowed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-11-25 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	"He hath not expressed any interest," Svalin said. "Said or otherwise shown." A pause. "I doth think. I art not good with this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-11-25 11:53 pm UTC (link)
	"You could use some work on it, yeah. I'm not going to destroy my left Manolo for it, told Brandr as much, but you two should maybe talk, decide what you want." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How doth one go about talking about it?" Svalin asked. "I hath only experience with Jon and that wast different." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-11-26 12:27 am UTC (link)
	"...Okay, it's not really my strongest suit either when it comes to someting that could become a serious relationship. But you two need to hash out whehter you're for something. Maybe jsut bring up at your next sparring practice that dating confusing, but has its benefits, and see where the conversation goes from there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Right now Svalin would rather fight a dragon than talk to Brandr about this. She wasn't good at /talking/ to people. "Mayhap," she said. "I doth not know how to broach the subject." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin sighed. "I wilt talk to him." Svalin knew better than to argue with her wife. Her wife would always win. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-11-26 01:55 am UTC (link)
	"Good. No pressure about what you decide. I just think addressing the subject would be good for you both." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How fares thy personal life?" Svalin asked. "Hath thou seen Jordan or Kael lately?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-11-26 02:05 am UTC (link)
	"I talk to Jordan when I can. Kael... I think Kael needs to expand his horizons." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-11-26 02:07 am UTC (link)
	"I doth think he already hath," Svalin said. "But hath thou seen Jordan? Mayhap a trip to see him? I canst take care of Solver for a few days." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2012-11-26 11:00 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah. Good idea. Soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2012-11-26 11:05 am UTC (link)
	Svalin smiled. "Good. Thou must take time off from being a mother." (Reply to this)(Parent)
