It started with a trip on Bifrost to Asgard. However, with Heimdall missing, travel had become more..unpredictable. One moment Kael was moving normally, the next he felt himself pulled into some manner of gateway. He felt himself black-out, and when he awoke he felt..lighter? He glanced at his body in panic, realizing he was also smaller.

"What..what's happened to me!? he cried out in a distinct unadult voice.

	She shrugs. "Not the best. It happens." She finishes her cheeseburger and starts on her apple slices. "So, I'm gonna take you home with me." She nods to herself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And Kael suddenly looks agog at Petra. "You're what?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well," She mused. "It's not like you have anywhere else to go, if this is one of those crazy cross-universe thingies." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I..I guess that makes sense." He raised an eyebrow at her. "This has happened before?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not sure about your universe in particular, but oh yeah. All the time. Less common than aliens, but it happens enough." Petra explains. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Petra just shrugs again, and finishes her meal. "Do you like Choco Puffs? Do they have those in your world?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That would be Midgard. It is a lot like this world." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2013-03-31 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay, well... do you like them?" She pauses. "And do you like, um, Midgard?" It'd be really embarassing if this guy turned out to be a secret invader or something. Daddy might ground her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I prefer the peanut butter kind." Kael thinks on that question. "It is very different from home,but it is not bad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She cleans up the rest of their garbage, then offers Kael her hand. "Do you want to take the subway, or fly again?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, okay." Petra leads him outside, then pulls him to a relatively out of the way spot before tucking his arms around her and jumping into the air again. It doesn't take long to get across town, and she sets them down carefully with another ice-slide on her balcony, unlocking the door to let them in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And he'll just quietly go along with this until they reach her place. "You..have a nice home." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thanks. I'll get out some extra pillows. Bed's big enough for two. I promise no funny business. Just don't get freaked out if it looks like I'm not breathing. I go kind of, uh, cold when I fall asleep." Petra shuts the door behind them and starts looking for her step-stool. She's going to need it, for a change. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's fine. I've slept in the snow already," Kael assured. "The floor will do fine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2013-04-01 12:09 am UTC (link)
	Petra furrows her brow and puts her tiny fists on her hips. "Oh no you don't. I don't want to sleep on the floor, but I can't do anything else if you insist on it. Mommy always taught me how important it was to respect guests. And Granny Gardner would rise from the grave and hit me with her frying pan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
