[ Sif doesn't really use her locket too terribly often, but these past few days spent digging up old bones and transporting them back to the crypt of Caer Glaem has made her somewhat philosophical, especially since she has a promise to keep and she is very much a woman of her word.

Her chief helper in the task of transporting bones can be seen as well, since she decided to record this message on a whim just as she was dismounting her cleg. The big animal seems to have decided that she is a worthy enough mistress, since it is rubbing its great head against her arm with enough force that even the sturdy Asgardian has to brace herself a bit against it. ]

Stop that, my friend.

[ There is a somewhat uncommon softness in her tone as she gently shoves the cleg's head away from her before addressing the network. ]

I was tasked by Black Shuck with honoring the plains of Cathraon after the revels of Samhain were over and done with, to mark the sorrow of those lands and to pay it homage. I have been carrying bones from unmarked graves to a final resting place for days now, since it is his will that we do so, but I am uncertain if that is enough to see my oath fulfilled. It is up to me to decide how this should be done, but if you would be willing to share with me how you would do such a thing I would gladly listen. I know many among you belong to peoples strongly connected to the land you walk upon.

[ She's friends with elves after all. The cleg tries to get her attention again, and she smiles a little while she turns away briefly to again make it stop pestering her. ]

On a less somber note I would also ask if any of you ladies in this world know of a way to avoid getting with child should one desire to take a lover. I am unfamiliar with the methods of this realm.

[ Asgardian bluntness strikes again. ]

Thank you, and a good day to you all.

[ He swallows. ]

I want to.

[ It's hard to admit that. ]

Does that trouble you?

[ Because he's looking kind of troubled to her. ]

No. It's just been a while since I've done anything with someone more than once. The job didn't really make it an option.

[ Or it had been a convenient excuse. ]

Believe me, it definitely doesn't trouble me.

It has been longer for me.

[ Said with a slightly lopsided little smile. ]

Oh, and a word of warning, if you let any of your elven friends know about this be prepared to receive congratulations on your marriage.

I- what?

[ John rubs a hand over his face. ]

You've got to be shitting me.

It has already happened to me so I assure you that I am quite serious.

[ She was also offered sculpted dildos. ]

[ ... take her up on that, they can use them. ]

That's. Wow.

[ Elves. ]

[ Sif likes the way you think, John. ]

It did remind me that I ought to ask you what this means to you.

[ It was all very spur of the moment after all, some clarity might be good for the both of them. ]

[ Oh fuck hard questions why. ]

Well, I definitely wasn't thinking of marriage.

[ HAHA FUNNY JOKE... ]

It- was fun. Good. I'd like to do it again. Though if you don't want to or you want to do it with, uh- other people, then...

[ You know, he won't like it, honestly. There's something that twists in him, a low growl of jealousy, possessiveness -- but Sif is her own, not his, and he isn't sure anyone should be stuck with him like that anyway. ]

...you know, I'd get it.

[ Because Sif likes him a whole lot and doesn't want to hurt him?

His words make her ponder what she would think if he decides that he would rather share his bed (and the occasional tent) with someone else. She is a little surprised to find that she does not like that thought at all. Hardly fair of her, all things considered. He's not the one mooning over his best friend. ]

I want to. With you. Others do not interest me, but you are free to do as you please.

[ To be fair, his best friend in the Drabwurld is Legolas. Which. Well.

Even if there were others -- and he can think of a few that he's thought of, though most are attached -- John's not exactly lining up to casually touch people. He snorts slightly, shaking his head. ]

There's not going to really be any others on my end.

[ If she tried she could probably think of a few people she wouldn't kick out of bed, but none of those options (leaving the subject of Thor aside) are quite as appealing as what she already has here. ]

Good.

[ Hello embarrassing slip of the tongue, that was not actually supposed to be more than a thought. She winces a little. ]

If that has not become abundantly clear already I am... Not very good at this sort of thing.

[ "Good", huh? John doesn't raise an eyebrow, but- well, he'll be thinking about it. Later. ]

Neither am I. At all.

[ Sif will be thinking about it too, and possibly feel a little conflicted. ]

Well, this is sure to be a smooth ride then.

[ Said with dry humour. ]

I don't mind things being a little rough.

[ sex joke sex joke ]

[ Lady Sif of Asgard does not giggle so whatever John just heard it wasn't that. ]

As it so happens neither do I.

[ She shakes her head a little, smiling. ]

Thor will undoubtedly be pleased that a midgardian has caught my fancy. I might never hear the end of it if he finds out.

[ uh-huh sure ]

To be fair, I'm only part Midgardian now. Synthetic chromosome and all.

[ Shut up. ]

Still Midgardian enough to tease me about, I think, even if you could hold your own against any of Asgard's warriors in a fight.

[ He might not know it but she just paid him a massive compliment. ]

[ Aw c: ]

Well, you'll have to tell me if it happens.

Why, so you can tease me as Well?

Not much point in that. Mostly so I can be prepared for any threats that might come my way.

Threats? Why would he threaten you?

I'm sure he can think of a few reasons.

Rest easy, he knows I am perfectly capable of making my own threats.

That doesn't usually stop the people who care about you.
