9th March 2012, Asgard

(Jasmine Sayre POV)

Odin looked very interested in this, "I can see a few flaws, but the convergence isn't due for almost a year now. We'll have time to iron out the details. For now, let's celebrate this occasion with a feast."

I stifled a groan; I usually didn't mind celebrations, but Asgardians can get pretty rowdy at times, especially during feasts. I just enter Odin's mind with his permission and lock the conversation we had away, so that the Shadows won't we be able to access it.

I then sigh and prepare myself for the long evening ahead of me.

I was right, of course. The moment Odin summoned the rest of his family after finishing our talk, I was immediately accosted by Thor who had apparently brought his friends out to meet me.

However, the first person Odin introduced me to, was his wife, "Ah, Lady Morrigan. I believe that you never met my beloved wife, Frigga."

I snorted, "Ah, you two weren't married the last time I came here. I think it was just after Odin was declared the King of the Nine Realms. Oh, yes, I remember, your betrothal was announced, but it wasn't confirmed yet," I bowed towards her, "The tales do not do your beauty justice, your majesty."

"And you as well, Lady Morrigan."

I smirked and then I was immediately accosted by the God of Thunder who was pushing his very uncomfortable friend towards me.

Honestly, I would be annoyed, but he seemed very excited, if a little weary, to introduce us, probably wanting to boast a little about our fight together, "Lady Morrigan, may I introduce the lady Sif, Volstagg, Fandral and Hogun."

I nodded and decided to take my leave. Telling my story, in front of all these people, was liberating in a way that I didn't feel before. I walked the halls of Asgard and towards the balcony. I watched as the water moved and fell of the edge of this flat world. It was a beautiful view.

I stood there for minutes, maybe even an hour, admiring the view, in peace. I heard a cough behind me, and I turned. It was Sif. Oh god, I wasn't ready for Asgardian drama.

She looked at me, with a little more respect than she showed me previously, "It was a beautiful story. Did that really happen?"

I chuckled, "Every story ever told really happened. Stories are where memories go when they are forgotten. But in this case, yes, that happened. It was a lot more complicated than that, and not quite as heroic, but, on that day, I defeated Death itself."

The woman nodded and stayed silent. It barely took a couple of minutes before she broke and asked impatiently, "What are your intentions towards Thor?"

I stifled a groan, because this wasn't fucking High School. Sometimes, I wonder if people immediately revert back to being a teenager when they deal with the matters of the heart. It would explain a lot, the impulsiveness, the questionable decisions. And here she was, a thousand year old goddess, asking about my intentions towards her crush. I was too tired for this. I wanted to go home, to Selene, to Wanda.

I took a deep breath; the poor girl didn't deserve that I snap at her. Instead, I just decided to mess with her a little, "Ah Thor, quite the nice young man. A bit brash, but that will go away with experience. Good fighter though, although he relies too much on his hammer."

I could visibly see her eye twitch, "Yes, that Thor. What are your intentions with him?"

I chuckled, "That depends, what intentions are you talking about, here?"

She looked so annoyed and petulant, that I felt like I was dealing with one of the kids I was teaching, "I mean romantically. Do you intend to court him?"

Well, the girl snapped. Now, I feel bad. Fine, I'm not messing with her anymore, "Thor is a very nice young man. Unfortunately, my wife would probably disapprove of me courting him. So, I'm going to pass on this one."

The girl looked shocked for a minute, and looked at me with wide eyes, "Wife?"

I nodded, "Oh, yes. We've been together for thousands of years. Is it that irregular here? Because I'm pretty sure that it was a normal practice between Valkyries back when they were still alive."

The girl looked lost, and I patted her on the arm, "Why are you so insistent in pursuing Thor? I have barely spoken to him since I came here, and yet the first thing you did when you saw me, was declare me as a threat in your mind."

The girl looked away, and I groaned inwardly; damn, looks like I'm getting involved in Asgardian drama, after all.
