for asgard !

“Well, that is true. My sisters and I did have a little more freedom than you and your siblings. But now we are making up for lost time.” She responds in a cheerful tone, attempting to put the focus fully upon the happy aspects. With that she pulls out the flask of Asgardian liqueur and hands it to Thor. “I’ll toast to that.” 

“Yes, that is true. Though these days I regret not taking advantage of your need for sparing. I could have learned long before now.” She remarks with a laugh and a playful light punch to Thor’s upper arm. At his next comment she nods as a light pink tint shades her cheeks. “I feel rude agreeing with that but I’ll simply claim bias as I say that yes you and he were always my favorites.”

Sigyn gives a little laugh and shrug. “The woods was always my favorite place. The place I went when I simply needed a breath and a break.” Granted growing up, Sigyn’s life was far from tough though hectic was a perfect description. “You know what its like to have parents that although loving had certain expectations and the dynamics of having a sibling, though I had eight siblings all sisters.” Giving another light laugh at the thought that popped in her head next. “Despite how much you love your siblings could you imagine living with eight Lokis or Helas?” 

Sigyn wanted to whole heatedly agree with Thor in regards to his father, but she didn’t want to seem too agreeing on it so she simply nods with a smile. “Well I did always enjoy going into the woods alone. I would have probably done that, explore and have imaginary battles using a fallen branch as a pretend sword.” She admits freely with a laugh. 

“I suppose you are right.” Sigyn responds simply, though the tone inferred she wasn’t fully convinced at least in reference to herself. Quickly she changes the come back to a happier one, smiling softly while focusing upon the treat in front of them. Laughing lightly at Thor’s question she slightly tilts her head to one side. “Probably because our mothers patience levels wouldn’t have survived the storm of hyper state this sugar would have released within us. Could you imagine all the mischief we all would have gotten into?” 

“After the past few years, you especially deserve to not worry anymore.” Sigyn responds as she smiles softly at Thor before turning her attention to the funnel cake. “I agree. I can already tell this is going to be addicting.” She sits down on an empty chair as she enjoys the treat with Thor. Humming happily after the very first bite, her face lighting up with happiness. “This confirms it I am now addicted.”

“   well  ,   the  coffee  part  is  a  MUST   !   ”    nods  with  a  grin  and  glances  down  at  the  extensive  menu  in  front  of  her  .    she’s  glad  to  be  in   thor’s   presence  ;    whenever  she’s  around  him  ,    she  can  always  trust  that  her  worries  will  melt  away  .    “   i  think  i’ll  dooo  ,   ”    trails  off  for  a  moment  in  decision  ,    “   a  lavender  vanilla  latte   …   and  a  cherry  danish   !   ”

“Hmm? What’s this?”

A piece of paper caught his attention as he walked towards Central Park. There wasn’t much to look at, but the flyer had information about some type of black market drug that promised to cure mutatism and suppress metahuman abilites.

Billy laughed. “They can’t be serious, right?”

Thor looks at the power closely, not liking the way the midgardians were turning against each other. He doesn’t believe this is actually a cure at all, but perhaps something else disguised as such. He was no scientist, but even he knew better.

“   i  would  get  furious  calls  from  board  members  to  reschedule  all  the  time  ,   ”   laughter  falling  out  of  her  lips  at  the  memory   .    she  walks  through  the  door  ,   warm  brown  eyes  looking  over  the  quiet  ,   charming  restaurant   .     “   thanks  ,   ”   she  says  with  an  appreciative  smile  before  taking  a  seat  at  a  table  for  two   .    looks  down  at  the  menu  ,   then  back  up  at  thor  ,   “   so  ,   what  do  you  recommend   ?   ”

“   jeez  ,   thor  ,   you  have  no  idea  how  much  i  WISH  that  were  the  case   !   honestly  ,   i’m  so  overworked  ,   fun  is  the  last  thing  on  my  mind  ,   ”   it’s  said  with  a  sigh  as  she  continues  down  the  sidewalk  alongside  him   .   “   ahh  ,   always  but  ,   tony  used  to  do  that  all  the  time  ,   and  it  pissed  off  the  board  like  CRAZY   .   ”

it’s  a  wonderful  change  of  pace  ,   and  she’s  glad  to  be  able  to  see  the  rich  city  surrounding  her   .   sun  shining  down  ,   a  solid  seventy - five  degrees  with  a  cool  breeze  running  through  as  the  pair  walks  down  the  street    —    pepper  could  get  used  to  this   .   nods  along  with  his  story  ,   “   wish  i  had  time  like  that  ,   ”   she  muses  as  she  looks  around  the  area  ,   “   if  it  isn’t  one  meeting  ,   it’s  ANOTHER   .   ”

a  fond  smile  stretches  across  her  soft  features  and  she  can’t  help  but  LAUGH  OUT  LOUD  at  thor’s  enthusiasm   .   it’s  a  nice  change  of  attitude  that  she  can  appreciate   .   being  surrounded  by  business  moguls  everyday  is  something  that’s  she’s   (   unfortunately   )   grown  too  used  to   .  she  walks  alongside  the  avenger  ,   ANTICIPATION  growing  with  each  step  closer  to  the  destination   .   “   how’d  you  find  this  place   ?   ”

Sigyn smirks proudly with a hint of mischief as she looks from her bag back to Thor. “Midgard has changed my outlook on life. Worry a little less and live a lot more. It’s quite liberating.” She says with a pure sense of excitement that many would say was an indication of someone with no life. Upon receiving their order she thanks the till operator and happily turns to Thor. “It smells like this will become quite addicting.” 

the  warmth  of  the  summer  sun  gives  pepper  a  new  found  energy  that  she  had  been  missing  for  a  while   .   she'd  been  cooped  up  inside  for  far  too  long  ,   and  coming  outside  provided  a  much  needed  wake  up   .   “   oooh  ,   ”   she  droned  ,   “  if  they  have  the  best  coffee  we’ve  GOTTA  go   .   ”

graditude  radiates  from  her  smile  ,   looking  up  at  the  slightly  larger  avenger  as  she  steps  through  the  door  and  into  the  sun   .   “   thanks  ,   point  break  ,   ”   she  says  with  a  chuckle   (   tony’s  not  great  at  keeping  his  jokes  to  himself   )   .   she  takes  a  deep  breath    —   and  it  smells  like  …   new  york  city   .   still  ,  she’s  glad  he’s  convinced  her  to  leave   .   “   where  do  you  want  to  eat   ?   ”
