Asgardian weddings are quite enjoyable, but it tends to become both an acquired taste and a feat of endurance by the second day.

In regards to the Norns? As of late, I'm convinced I'm some sort of puppet acting as their catalyst. In which case, I'm rather done being accommodating. I might go face them at some point, but the journey is perilous. It is said they are not prone to answering questions clearly one way or the other, and they'll likely take such a visit as an affront.

Now then, what is wrong with being just...you? Surely there is time to decide if things are right betwixt you.

	What makes you think that? And do you plan to go alone? I like to think we have time. But I don't trust this universe. Vision is dead in that other universe and I'm just wary of yet another heartbreak if he disappears, because I know for certain death is where he returns to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I think it is more a matter of the best laid plans going awry. And by that, I mean that things tended to snowball from bad to horribly worse. If that was the foul fate woven for me, I would welcome lodging a complaint about the future being less tumultous. Yet they are not easy to find, nor are they easy to speak to. Thus it would be a fool's journey. Even alone.

Worry not. I am not willing to take such a risk, nor risk my neck. Not while I have someone awaiting me. Even if it would provide some answers, there are too many ways to get lost whilst trying to find such illusive beings. And if they become incensed, things could grow even worse for yours truly.

As to those other matters, Ms. Maximoff? I believe that is a relevant concern shared by many. I worry over this happening with my intended as well, and she with me. If I were to be gone, there is nothing for me to return to on that other side. I am much in the same place as you and your Vision are. Quite dead.

Even so, for what we are allotted here, is it not worthwhile to indulge and enjoy? Even if it is a sliver of time, that makes it all the more precious.

	I think it's natural to want answers. If you try and it doesn't end well, at least you know you tried to find those answers. I am willing to help you? I'm not Asgardian but maybe if we both researched the magic involved, we could find a way. Yes. Stephen said something similar regarding those other matters. You are both right.

I recall the tales my mother told me of Urdr, Verdandi and Skuld. Of the three, the youngest Skuld is the worst and most unyeilding. There are many more Norns than that besides, shaping the destiny of gods and mortals from birth and working with one another. There is even a Queen of Nornheim, who has long reviled Odin for turning most of her army to stone.

While I appreciate the generous offer of aid? I know it would be a dangerous undertaking, and likely not end well. There is even the chance that there would be no return at all. And I fear that the paths taken on so long a journey would incur a steep toll upon a mortal form.

Such an undertaking would bode ill for us both, and our loves. I have no desire to take you away from him, nor cause my intended any more sorrows.

However, should things take a foul turn for us both?

Well then. Perhaps we might consider a visit at that juncture.

	You can trade stories with the Queen, then, about how awful Odin was. I suppose tracking down Norns and visiting them might be a thing to do when lovers disappear though, so yes. So it's a deal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If only. She's not overly fond of any of us, I'm afraid? Odin most of all. As for our pact, yes. I do think it would be appropriate then. As much as I appreciate your aid, you must also forgive me when I admit that I'd rather things never reach that point. A sentiment that you now share, no doubt. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do understand. I wish there was more I could do, to keep Vision here with me. Relying on such an unstable universe is frustrating. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frustrating, but the alternative leaves much to be desired. (Reply to this) (Parent)
