[Because texting is for losers with time, that's why.] I take it there is a pattern to theses curses? I would have believed the City was trying to increase the number of animals in its preposterous cages, were they not the kind to disappear so soon after midnight.

Can someone offer some insight? [If there's anything else she wants to say, it gets interrupted by a raven perching itself on her shoulder. Its beak open, and out comes Sif's voice:]

My hunting skills could keep us fed for a lifetime.

[Her expression thunderous, she swats the bird away.] Off with you.

[ooc; She still stands by it. :| You're missing out on a catch, City.]

[asofwar]

I suppose the context itself was more offensive.

[fe_male]

Which would be?

[asofwar]

I was cursed, and courting half the City.

[fe_male]

....

And that was your line?

[asofwar]

I detect criticism.

[Yes. Teach her better.]

[fe_male]

Brilliant deduction. I'm shocked, shocked, that you aren't still covered up in would-be suitors.

hopefully not eternally late.

[asofwar]

Were it my intention to make it so, I would make it so.

by no means late at all

[fe_male]

As totally hot as that is, just so you're fully aware of my own personal standing here, most guys - not that you can't be also trying to woo the women - don't take kindly to being told they're now suitors, even for one as... illustrious as yourself.

yes good continue. train her in flirting as she trains you in getting punched

[asofwar]

What do they take kindly to?

wait he doesn't feel like he needs to be trained to get punched

[fe_male]

Okay, slight reverse - some guys will take kindly. There's a fine line between like, being told to like and enjoy something and then actually being in a situation you don't like, but that's getting into, you know, a whole realm of dominance and subs and shit and I don't feel like being the one responsible for putting the screen door on that one, so. We're using my own personal - well, okay, nevermind. [ Because he would be okay with being told to, actually, but anyway. ]

Okay, whatever. Which ones do you want to attract?

isn't that what boxing is

[asofwar]

Supposing I am looking to attract someone. Romance has never featured among my priorities.

well yeah but the point is to punch the other person more than they do you

[fe_male]

At all?

which is what sif does

[asofwar]

Perhaps briefly, as a child.

which is why tony doesn't want to train with her

[fe_male]

As a chi-- you mean like, younger than a hundred by that, don't you? [ because ew. ] Why the shift? Too rosy for you?

:(

[asofwar]

Shield maidens do not get approached with marriage offers. And just as well.

i mean, he still WILL because he offered. i think.

[fe_male]

Well, yeah, that's because you're all so intimidating.
