Re: Odinson Family Values
Whereas before Ragnar had stiffened up at being touched or simply not responded something in his brain made him react...differently this time. He'd seen Thor give Logan an embrace in the weeks before his illness had taken him and Ragnar had seen other similar embraces between troops of the Imperial guard.
With out a word, only the soft scrape of fabric on fabric being audiable, Ragnar closed both arms round Thor, pulling the Asgardian close, his chin resting on the other man's shoulder. Before a hug had felt...incorrect, wrong..but now..
Ragnar smiled, he didn't know if Thor could see it but didn't care as he patted the other man on his back once.
"And I look forwards to speaking with you again friend Thor." Ragnar said as he hugged Thor. "You've..given me things to think about..there are a great many parallels between us...except..I am you..viewed through a dark mirror...Perhaps..that can change."
