It was considerably more exciting when I arrived. That made it a bit easier, in a way. More difficult to fuss about the little things when there are bigger ones to deal with.
There was a small attack on the city, and then preparations began for the larger one that happened a bit later. It's been quiet on that front since, though.
It won't last, but people seem content enough to forget for the moment. In any case, until after those battles, I didn't take much time to think about settling in.
[ He's thinking it would be a blessing if it came as soon as it could. Sherlock might actually feel better, and he probably would too. Messed up as it is. ]
[it's true. sophie's not quite ready to talk about her own violent tendencies, though]
The first attack was right at the beginning of autumn, I think, and the battle began perhaps a fortnight after it passed and lasted...four days, perhaps five? And then midwinter was a few weeks after that. I try not to mark time too closely here.
Because it's easier for me not to think about how long it's been. Asgard is not a sentence that will end after a certain time has passed, it's a task that can only be accomplished in its own time. Measuring it won't help me.

Other than the obvious, have you been settling in?

No, you wouldn't.

It seems a long time since then, but it really hasn't been. The color is coming back, even.

When was it?

He's a bit odd for a kid, isn't he?

Not where I'm from. I haven't been a child for a long time. How old would it be in your world, to be considered an adult?

Modernity seems rather strange, on that account.
