There was a part of Rhiannon that understood the logic behind Freyr's decision to leave her in the care of her mother's family. She could even sympathize with him on some level but that didn't change the fact that the reason was complete and utter bullshit. She honestly could've benefitted from having her father in her life, especially when she was younger. "How long did you 'check in' on me?" she asked, curiosity getting the better of her; it couldn't have been that long since he seemed to think he'd left her in capable (loving) hands of her maternal relatives. Why stop though? This wasn't the action of a father who had planned to become part of his child's life eventually. He'd checked out. He'd abandoned her.Fuck.Rafe stood by her friend, shocked. So, this was Rhia's daddy? Admittedly she'd been curious to know if the guy still existed out there and lo and behold! There he was, a god and a king, and totally oblivious as to why Rhiannon wasn't falling all over herself to embrace him. "Well, shit," the dark-haired woman said finally. "One mystery solved, I guess?" Heh.Rhiannon actually snorted in derision and lowered her gaze to the floor - or her shoes more specifically - for a moment. Yes, mystery-fucking-solved. This knowledge should've brought her some sort of satisfaction but it didn't. It really didn't. If anything, it made her feel worse. Her headcanons about her father had been so much better, in her opinion. She shook her head and glanced back up, and by then she caught sight of her fellow redhead and librarian, and Thor. If her anxiety had been at a '10' before, it was at '11' now and rapidly increasing."Maybe some other time," Rhia responded to Freyr's request to keep the conversation going. Despite the fact that she'd rather pretend this never happened, she knew that this conversation needed to happen sooner or later but she wanted to happen on her terms. She managed to give both the Allfather and Pétr a small smile though when they approached the trio. She was still brassed off but not at them, and they seemed to be there to break the tension or at the very least to keep it from escalating into something bigger than it needed to be.
