Sometimes you get so lonely; sometimes you get nowhere.
Vernique was headed back to the Defenders compound with all the right papers for a Durable General Power of Attorney in the State of California. She'd triple checked everything, and Svalin would just need to fill them out. Then their Asgardian marriage would be given its Earthly equivalent as she legally acquired a fiduciary role for Svalin.

She didn't pay too much attention to the figure near the gates.

Dexter Spengler, Captain Spengler to those who knew him, stood outside the gates to the Defenders' compound. He had just gotten off of work for the day and came by to see if he could catch a glimpse of Lady Svalin. It was love at first sight when he saw her at the Star Trek convention in Las Vegas and his only desire since then had been to meet her.

Somedays she would be out on the lawn tending to the horses, one even had wings, and he would see her. He tried waving and shouting in Klingon but each attempt had been unsuccessful. There had to be a way to get to talk to her.

He was about to give up and go home for the day when one of the residents came outside. It was one he had only seen a few times. She was pretty, but she was not his blond goddess.

"Miss! Miss!" he yelled and waved his arms.

Aw, look at the excitable little guy over there. Vernique closed the folder, tucked it under her arm, and went to talk to him.

"Hi! You okay?"

She actually stopped and spoke to him! This was /encouraging/ to say the least.

"I am, thank you," he said rather hesitantly. None of them had actually stopped to talk before. "I wanted to ask a huge favor of you if at all possible."

"I can see what I can do. No promises," Vernique says pleasantly. "I'm Vernique, by the way."

"I'm Spengler. Captain Dexter Spengler. It's nice to meet you Vernique. That's such a pretty and unusual name."

He pulled a disc out of a hidden pocket. "Could you please give this to the Lady Svalin? We...um...share a common interest and I wanted to show her how I felt about her. I couldn't get her to listen to me when she was outside and I really like her and...." Yes, he was babbling now.

"Nice to meet you, Captain Spengler. And thank you." Vernique preens slightly.

"Okay, the thing is," she says gently, "we have to be very careful about safety, especially Svalin right now. We can't just put anything in our building's systems without its being looked over."

Pause.
"Does this have something to do with bat'leths?"

Dexter lit up and beamed. "It does! I saw her fight in Vegas and she /inspired/ me. I made these videos for her." He held out the disc. "Please give this to her?"

Vernique smiled happily. "The girl does like her weapons. The swords were almost a bigger part of our wedding than the rings."

She reaches to take the disc. "I'll give it to her after the tech guy checks it out for safety protocol."

Dexter blinked and then practically deflated like a balloon. He just /stared/ at Vernique for awhile. No. This couldn't be happening.

"M-m-married? She's married?" he asked when he found his voice again.

Oh.
Oh the poor thing!
"Well, you see, Asgardians are very complicated --" Vernique starts to explain. She's even ready to cheer him up by explaining how they're perfectly free to date. But... this boy wasn't Svalin's type. And he was obviously crazy about her. She shouldn't get his hopes up that far again just to dash them more.
"-- but yes. By Asgardian law, I'm her wife."

"Could you please give her this anyways?" he asked and put the disc in her hand.

He made a mental note to do some research on Asgardian marriage laws.

Vernique smiled kindly. "I will." And then, with a sheepish little smile and a hazy memory of an old crush on Patrick Stewart, she added "Q'apla," before heading inside with her folder and the disc.

Dexter brightened at the Klingon. Two beautiful ladies who watched Star Trek and both in the same place. Dexter smiled and went home to do some research.
