— WAR / GODDESS

me:

❛ I KNOW IT isn’t exactly Yule, but I found some lights I thought would look nice strung along the counter. ❜      Diana’s got them in her hands, white stars and silver flakes of snow. She carries the two strands into the kitchen where Sif has busied herself with something. Coming up behind the woman with a smile on her face, Diana drapes them over Sif’s shoulders and winds them around her waist. Her arms reach around, and for a moment she’s close enough to press a kiss to Sif’s strong jaw.            ❛ Or perhaps just on you. ❜

          ❛ Tell me what you’re doing. I’d like to help. ❜              @wardivinity

fingers    DELICATELY    brush across the bristles of the wreath that lay bare across their kitchen counter  .    it emitted a soft fragrance    , one that reminded her of the forests upon asgard and for a moment she slipped into a daze  ;  mind WANDERING  to times past  .

that is until she is    SNAPPED    back to reality    .   a smile tugging at the corner of her lips as the    soft press    of skin brushes against the underside of jaw  .  ❝     i am still trying to learn of the    MANY    traditions here upon earth  .     ❞ 

cold silver

this variant of enhanced gray eyes seems to shimmer with a light as cold as steel. this eye color seems to give the individual a very chilling, serious, yet wise air to them, and their stare seems to pierce into the thoughts of another. it is difficult not to break beneath a furious, silver-eyed glare. for the same reason, these eyes represent a serious, anticipating mindset and an intelligent, cunning nature.

silver eyes are represented by:

-the element of metal -the season of winter -north -both light and darkness

some attributes of those with silver eyes:

-persistent and persevering -tend to hide or bottle up emotions to seem 'strong' -very wise from experience and trials -seems calm and calculating at first impression

Pepper gazed at the goddess, her head shaking softly. “Tony took off on some spaceship – I haven’t seen him since. I don’t know where Rhodey or the others are. According to the news coverage, they were fighting in Wakanda, but who knows if they survived.”

She means you, Sif. You have given her something more valuable than practice alone. Nostalgia stings her chest as fiercely as the ache in her sword arm. You have given her this: a fragment of familiar ground.

The way she fights — her blade striking like a hot spark, her reflexes sharpened on centuries of practice… How rare for an opponent to match her blow for blow! 

❛ They are what their world makes them. Sometimes they are… unexplainable. But time is a persistent teacher. ❜  Her lips quirk, gentling the truth of it. Time teaches with the whip and the flail; it bludgeons and beats you. But you learn. Sif’s eyes are back upon her sword. Diana cannot read the gaze she’s dropped to the ground. So she’s gentle:  ❛ How long have you been here, in their world? ❜

THAT QUESTION    seems to pull the goddess short  .  her work upon her sword stalls once more but it is this time that sif cannot seem to meet the others gaze  .  as her mind    REPLAYS    the days of old  .  counting each and every one of them until a quiet  ,    HUSHED    answer is given  ,  ❝     two hundered and thirty two days  .     ❞ 

YES    ,  she knows of each and every day that has passed as if it was some sort of    lifeline she was clinging to    .  as if the more days that passed the    SOONER    she would return to her homestead  ---------  that was    WISHFUL    thinking. and she knew the days would soon start to blend together as she hopefully installed herself into this world...  HOPEFULLY  .
