"Oh I can wield it like a weapon if needed." But he'd also agreed not to manipulate her--hopefully she remembered that, because he certainly did. "You do make it quite enjoyable for me to play the role of gallant lover though."

[drpalmer]

"You play it surprisingly well. If being a trickster god doesn't work out for you, you could try acting."

She remembers, which is why she finds it so endearing when he is especially sweet with her.

[whose_son_am_i]

"But God of Mischief is one I've played far longer than gallant lover." In some ways, he was the ultimate actor. But he did enjoy a good bit of theater now and again. "Your city is supposed to be famous for its plays--perhaps the next time I'm in town we should go see one."

[drpalmer]

"You can play both if you want." She nods about the theatre.

"We could see a show. Might have to bring Eric though."

[whose_son_am_i]

"Would that be so bad?" Eric was one of a few identities Loki had that weren't 'him'. It's likely he'd who the phone would be registered to. "We could also do dinner again."

[drpalmer]

"It isn't bad. I like these eyes better though." The blue-green eyes that are looking at her now.

"Dinner and a show."

[whose_son_am_i]

"And my natural hair, from what you've said." There's amusement in those blue-green eyes. "It will be a date then." Pressing another kiss to her forehead. "We'll have to get up soon." Lips curving into a mischievous grin against her skin. "Although I am curious, what it is you most wanted to do to me."

Brushing his mind against hers, wrapping around her own softly. I know what I'd like to do to you... And then there is a targeted projection--not an illusion, but pure sensation and emotion. Heat and want and lust and desire and pleasure. Formed from the feel of her shattering around him, the sound of his name on her lips in worship. Formed entirely of emotion.

Loki was testing a theory... If her Empathy was truly what was strongest, then this should get a strong reaction.

[drpalmer]

She was considering the best way to answer when he floods her mind with that. It's heavy sensation and god, does it feel incredible.

She can hear herself gasping his name and she's not sure if she's said it out loud, mentally or both.

If he was looking for a reaction the way she shudders and trembles in his arms should be a strong one.

[whose_son_am_i]

That was a delightful reaction indeed, and he's quite pleased with himself. Stroking her hair, arm around her pulling her closer, Loki made a soft soothing noise. Echoed with the feel of him wrapping around her mind, but more gently this time. This was comfort, catching her, holding her after a moment of vulnerability.

"When you talk to your Sorcerer, you should tell him that your abilities seem tied to your Empathy."

[drpalmer]

She's breathless as she holds him tightly against her.

"That's cheating." She makes a note of what to mention to Stephen. "I very much need to work on my shielding if I can be given surprise orgasms."

[whose_son_am_i]

"Yes you do. But knowing just what you're vulnerable to will help you build those shields. You need to focus not simply on stray thoughts, but on emotions. Build your shields with emotions, so that they aren't a point of weakness."

He didn't bother to point out that he had a key through the very shield he'd put up.

"Jeg liker å få deg til å knuse." Murmured against her hair, softly. Affectionately. "Du er min for å beskytte"

[drpalmer]

She nods. She can easily add emotions to her shield.

"I'm going to learn Norwegian so you won't be able to whisper secrets at me." She teases. It's obvious enough that whatever he is whispering is sweet and affectionate just by the tone.

[whose_son_am_i]

"'I like making you shatter'." He grinned. "Aside from linguistical shifts, the difference between it and Asgardian seems to be in accent." Pressing another kiss to her forehead. "'You are mine to protect.'"

Letting her know just what it was he'd said for once.

[drpalmer]

"I still need to be stronger myself. You won't aways be around."

Since they both have quite a lot to do on a regular basis. This week is really going to be a luxury.

If it was anyone else saying they'd protect her she would huff and argue she doesn't need it.

[whose_son_am_i]

He nodded, and gave her one last kiss before gently pulling away.

"We should get going. It's not a long walk, but it is a walk." They had a dinner to attend, even if it would be an informal one.

[drpalmer]

"Sure." She just has to put her boots back on and straighten her hair a bit, adjusting the little headpiece that he made for her.

"To dinner."

[whose_son_am_i]

He offered his arm as usual, once they were in the hallways proper. Through the ship, and into what were clearly more common areas rather than private or business suites. Loki also simply veiled their presence once more, so no one gave them any looks. Whether she detected the spell over them this time or not...

"Tomorrow it IS likely you'll be introduced formally, which will mean giving a purpose or relationship beyond simply So-and-so's guest. Our other guests do have passable English and are all diplomats, but...." Most of the conversation would be in Norwegian, and there would be curiosity about who she was. "I would rather they not realize you are connected to my sudden departure." Best that no one knew or infer just how important she might be, per se. Not when his presence on Earth was still mostly a secret.

[drpalmer]

It sounds like it could be a nightmare depending. Christine isn't a fan of having people talk about her.

"How are you planning on introducing me then?" It will already cause speculation that she's with him at all.

She's smart enough to understand reasons for keeping her purpose there as something neutral. They are doing delicate negotiations and she doesn't want to pull anymore focus then she will naturally.

[whose_son_am_i]

"That's part of why we'll likely discuss over dinner. I will advocate for going with the less is more approach. People will wonder anyways who you are, and why and how you know us. Especially me." His unofficial role as 'troubleshooter', to put it politely, wasn't yet known either.

"If it would make you more comfortable, I could put you under an illusion as well. Make up details."

[drpalmer]

"I'm not worried about being known. We can probably use me being a doctor to our advantage for a reason I'm here."

It's so often a good idea to bring a doctor to consult on various things anyway. And it makes her sound more professional overall.

[whose_son_am_i]

"You are both brave and foolish." Loki said, but with no bite to it. "Officially I am...leashed." And it was clear he was not fond of that idea. "It is known to be so, among those who are aware of my presence--it's a necessary condition of such." Not that the Norwegians could stop him--he was the God of Mischief after all. "So I am under Thor's rule and guard. In that sense, it would only make sense for me to be escorting you since he can not."

Thinking while they walked. "Although some will wonder why mine, and not the Valkyrie's. Granted, she is supposed to guard the royal family..."

[drpalmer]

"In sometimes equal measure." She knows he's not as leashed as they make it look.

She has no doubt he will figure out the best way to phrase her being here. He's a wordsmith afterall.

[whose_son_am_i]

He is very much not as leashed as people would like. Officially, he has not been let out of the Statesman without eyes on him, much less New Asgard. Unofficially, he'd been acting on his own since their arrival, with Thor only slightly aware of what he'd been doing at best.

"Regardless, he has also stated himself you are under his protection, and he'll make that official. If you are here as liason as a Doctor, then there will be those among our people who want to talk to you in that capacity too."

[drpalmer]

"I am happy to help however I can." And she will have something to do while Loki is working. Granted she might need a quick run down on the differences in Asgardian physiology, but she would still be a capable doctor in most contexts.

[whose_son_am_i]

"I figured." With a smug grin.

They'd been walking steadily though through the hallways, and now came to what was clearly a small dining area. Part of a larger set of kitchens and supplies and a larger communal dining room. This would could be partitioned and closed off by expedience of closing a door. It was still not fancy or formal.

To their credit, neither Heimdall nor Brunhilde looked surprised by a sudden appearance of them. Brunhilde just rolled her eyes and snorted. Heimdall moved from his seat, and offered to help Christine in to her own.

"Damn." Brunhilde said, with a crooked smile when Christine was seated. "I kind of hoped he'd be more bothered with what I chose for you. He looks too smug though."

"Of course he's smug, Brunhilde. First of all, he always is and second of all, he has a charming guest." Heimdall replied. "One whom I think is a good influence on him."

"Oh he SORELY needs that." The valkyrie replied, reaching over to offer her hand to Christine. "PLEASE take him and make him not my problem anymore? I'm the one who usually has to keep an eye on him."

"I really don't like being referred to as if I'm some misbehaving child, thanks."
