But Loki kind of liked it better this way. "I will say that both of our hands need to be able to wrap around the hilt, so a scalpel might make that more difficult."
"That's what you get for being born American." Sif said playfully. "Not that if you'd been born Norwegian you'd have one, but you'd have had a better chance." Freyja nodded sagely. "I've also found out that the dress and cake are most important traditions. I'll be researching what's required in the wedding cake, but Lady Christine has graciously agreed to let me come dress shopping with her and her mother. I will find her a dress fitting for marrying into the nobility." Freyja said with some pride.
"Her mother is a delightful woman who, like Christine, is far too kind." Loki said with a small smile. And we should probably tell her, and anyone else in your family, that this is happening before things get too far ahead. She likes "Erik" but will she like him when she finds out he's me?
"You use what you'd like, Christine. While there are parts of this I will not mess with, I will happily help create variations on the traditions with you." Loki murmured, deliberately turning to look at her. And letting everyone see the small smile he had, just for her. It was affectionate, and mischievous, all at once.
There may or may not be much news presence--once again, we are able to control things. But there will definitely be some, considering it will be a big deal to New Asgard, and likely to Norway.
That little smile was generally reserved for her and the way she smiles back has the same sort of affection. Anyone who sees them together notices how they look at one another.
"We will change some things up a bit. That should be expected."
It's sure to get out to some degree though. But we should visit my mom again.
Oh I agree. Besides which, I would bring her a late Yule Gift. And a copy of the paperwork for the Trust.
"If all you do is change things up somewhat, while being benign, I think people will be pleased enough." Sif said with a small laugh. "Considering you are marrying the God of Mischief."
"It would." Freyja confirmed, although she was smiling. "Actually, you aren't allergic to cats are you? And the Sanctum will allow you to have one, yes?"
"I'm not allergic. And given how old the Sanctum is, it would probably be helpful to have one around." The old expansive building likely gets some mouse visitors.
"I'll think about it." Loki said, was Freyja was still turning pleading eyes on him. "And no, you may not pet me, if I do, Freyja." She pouted, while Sif chuckled.
You can pet me in private, Sweetling. I'll change just for you.
"I still haven't even agreed to it. I'm not someone who does tricks on command." With a look to Freyja, but there was only a minimum of bite to it. "Fair enough, Loki and you're right." So the subject got changed to more on wedding prep.

I assumed even on Asgard wedding planning was more of a woman's interest. It tends to be that way here.

"They are pretty thin. I'm kind of disappointed that I don't have an ancestral sword, my family let me down on antique weapons."

Before it's on the news? My mom will still love you, she knows I'm a very good judge of character. My sister will be a bit more trouble.

You did manage to both surprise and overwhelm me with your Yule gifts.

I'm afraid my gifts will be more tame in the future, most likely.

They have a way with one another, of teasing and laughing.
I'm sure they'll be just as thoughtful, if not as dramatic.

Do we get a wedding cat?!

Freyja's smile grew wider. "Excellent. Because I will be gifting you both a kitten to help with home defense."

"Kittens!" So it does seem she is taking well to the kitten gift.
"Bet we could make an enchanted self-cleaning litter box."

Christine will do tricks on command, but magic is new to her and she still wants to show off a bit.
