Who: Shannon & Loki
When: Morning
Where: Park in Wheel 1, just outside Little Asgard
What: Snowball fight?
Warnings: Snowball violence? Accusations towards innocent wolves?

A contentment had settled into the Jotunn’s feature. He had recovered all of the infinity stones over the last few weeks but hardly used them. Instead, he had sought out the quiet more often than not. The family inside was safe and recovering. He wasn’t needed. It had given the rage and fear time to muffle itself. It was still there, lingering beneath the surface, waiting for the next moment to pounce. But right now he had time to be himself. The lack of responsibility was something he missed at times. To be able to do what he wanted as if tomorrow did not count… but that was only rarely his life nowadays.

It did not mean he could not have a little fun every now and then. A small smile appeared on his lips as he saw the little dragoness exiting the conservatory of their house. Snow stretched out to his left and right where he said just beneath a tree in the park. Myrkvan, the black wolfdog, lay stretched out next to him. He couldn’t resist it. He formed a snowball and hurled it into Shannon’s direction. A moment later, he gestured to the wolf. “They have been raised without manners,” he said deadpan, mirth sparkling in his eyes. His hand wandered back to form the next snowball.

Shannon had not been expecting a face full of snow when she'd stepped out of the door. Though, maybe she should have they had quite a collection of teenage boys in their home now. But the voice she heard surprised her. It was not one of the boys, just the man she shared her life with. She cleared her vision just in time to see him gesturing to Myrkvan. The poor wolf looked clueless. And she couldn't help but chuckle at the picture it made.

"I think our daughter would take offense to that, she's tried very hard to raise her wolves with manners." There was no way to be mad at the events. It had been a while since he'd felt comfortable enough to be playful. She did, however, notice that he was reloading. And never being one to stand down from a challenge... She dipped down to form her own snowball, which was a little more melty than his was.

The corner of his lips still quivered as he watched her reach for her own ammunition. He timed his next throw to a point where she was just glancing down at her hand. "I - " he gestured towards the wolf. "The evidence suggests differently." Myrkvan hadn't moved yet. She simply glanced lazily between the two of them, not quite sure what was going on.

He did not care about winning or losing the battle. He doubted she did. All he cared about was the little game, the token of normality and joyful mischief.

She actually squeaked with the second snowball, as it was timed, and aimed, just right, so that some went down the back of her jumper. She bolted upright and held her sweater away from her back with attempt to get the snow out of her shirt. She danced and jumped around as if that helped, while fanning it out away from her body.

And in the process she had managed to drop her lone snowball. She could handle some cold, but a pile of snow was just too much. The dancing and jumping around had been a little useless, as the snow had melted from the unnatural heat of her body. But when she felt just the simple chill of a wet top against her back, she turned to him and playfully narrowed her eyes, her lips twitching just slightly as if she were holding in laughter. "I would say she does indeed look guilty, but she's missing one key to making snowballs." Shannon held up her thumbs and wiggled them.

She couldn't beat him in the snowball game, she knew it, so she begun playfully stalking toward him. Slowly, and obvious in her actions.

Glee filled the trickster god at his lover's reaction. A second later an innocent, with just the right amount of arrogance, look filled Loki's face. "Ah, I'm glad you begin to understand. Well, maybe our daughter is better at teaching the wolves the trades of sorcery than the trades of manners. There must be an explanation for this."

He did not lower his gaze as he scooped up the next snowball, instead smiling casually as Shannon approached.

"You're absolutely right. She must be teaching them mischief. It only makes sense." She did adore his mischief. Especially when coupled by that easy smile. She loved that smile. It made her heart flip flop, and she almost started stalking toward him.

But instead, Shannon's steps only faltered just a little. She continued to creep toward him. Something like the wolf beside him might do, if she were getting ready to pounce.

Myrkvan seemed to have recognised the behaviour. Happy for the new friend, she got up and wagged her tail friendly. Someone clearly wanted to play with her.

Loki, on the other hand, wished she hadn't. He wanted to see what she was aiming for. Instead he smiled at her comment. "What a wise one you are..." he said in a friendly, chatty tone. "And look, now she's playing all innocent. Who would have the audacity to do such a thing?" he asked, his smile slowly changing into a smirk. With that, he threw the next snow ball.

"Oh, it looks like she's on my team now." Shannon made kissy noises at the wolf, giving her a good scritch when she came closer. The stalking continued, at least until she was hit with another snowball.

Shannon squealed dipped low and scooped up a hand full of snow and just flung it at him. Any thoughts of making a ball were gone.

The wolfdog's tail started thumbing as her ears were scratched. And then Shannon had a friend who kept following her, happy to have found someone who gave scratches that good.

Loki laughed as the snow hit him. It was full or warmth and joy. A sentiment he had only recently regained. He held up his hands in surrender, the twinkle of mischief never leaving his eyes.

"I surrender. I am clearly outnumbered," he said with fake humility in his voice.

Shannon paused when he laughed, it was music to her ears. And the cheeky smile turned into one that was more genuine. One that definitely gave her away, but she didn't try to hide how she felt about him from him.

"Ah. Well females have to stick together, you know. Right Myrkvan?" She knew she was probably leaving herself wide open for another snow attack, but she invited it. Anything to hear that laughter again. She gave the wolfdog another scritch behind the ears.

Myrkvan huffed in agreement. And then the scratches followed and the tail wagging got quicker and quicker. The wolf was in ecstasy.

"Ah," he said. "Then I would like to join your club..." With that his features changed. They grew soft, his eyebrows raised and a little later he looked like a woman.

(OOC: I'm going to wait for the show to see if they decide on a female version of him so ignore his icon! :-))

She watched as his features changed. No matter how often it happened, or what he chose to be, who he chose to be, it wasn't something that would ever grow old. And by the gods, he made a beautiful woman. But then he was a beautiful man, it only stood to reason that he would.

Still Shannon could not hide the husky turn her voice took. Nor the lusty warmth that entered her eyes. "It looks like she has a hard choice to make now." She took a few meandering steps toward him. "I can't say I would be too jealous if she chose you."

Myrkvan was looking between the two of them, her tale still wagging. The decision was made after a few hard moments of choice. She flopped down right between them, turning her belly towards the sky. Her whole body shook as her tail kept wagging.

Loki's mouth quirked up at her tone. The change in her made him wonder if she preferred him like this but his ego kept the idea from taking hold. "Ah, now, I'm not quite sure what kind of choice that is. But I would suggest we cross her when she gets too comfortable." There wasn't much distance between them left and so Loki finally rose to his feet. The green dress he now wore fell elegantly around him.

Shannon did chuckle a little at the wolf-dog's antics. It was a clear offer for both of them to rub her belly. But her eyes didn't turn away from Loki. In fact she took all of him in when he stood, and the dress fell so nicely around his form.

"Well, clearly she's of the mind 'why pick sides when both sides can rub her tummy'." She closed the gap and gave his dress a little tug. "How is it fair that you are prettier than I am. Especially in a dress." It was a light tease as she gazed up into his eyes.

"Now, that is up for debate," he said. Myrkvan and her ambitions for a tummy rub were forgotten. He wasn't used to the lack of difference in height. He ran a finger along her lips and then he made a split second decision. One moment they stood on the station, the next they were in an apartment on Tz'teña. It was a spacious rich space. A wide window front overlooking the main city and its buzzling life below. It was one of the highest buildings around. One of the best views. The rest of the apartment was clean and stylish. White was the dominant colour but black, green and gold joined it here and there.

"Oh, I bought an apartment," he said cheekily. He was back to his normal form. He preferred standing tall. It also allowed him more ease as he now drew her in, pressing her back against his stomach and chest. She could enjoy the view outside, he could nibble at her ear.

Shannon was well used to his teleportation. But that was not why her jaw dropped. It was the view. The closest she had come to seeing anything like it was that from Asgard. That was a beautiful sight, but this.. Her arms settled over his, her fingers lightly caressing his as he pressed her into his front.

Though his nibbling of her ear drew her out of her awed state. A little grin quirked up her lips. "Am I the first to see it, besides you? Or...?" Not that she would be jealous. Just curious if he'd brought anyone to this place.

Loki drew her in more closely. "You are the first to know about it," he said. He liked the secrecy. Many things he was doing, he was doing without anyone knowing. The trickster god had always been a private person, he still was. The moment a stranger was around, his walls were raised. He needed some things, some objects, some moments for himself. It meant something that he had decided to share this with his mate. Maybe it could be theirs. For now, at least until the child and the grandchildren would conquer that too.

Shannon wasn't sure why but that hit a chord with her. And made her feel warm and fuzzy inside. He was good at that. Saying the words without actually saying the words. She turned her face to look back at him. And she was sure the glow she felt showed. Even from a peripheral he was breathtakingly beautiful. And to her eclipsed the view. "Is it a hide out? Or do you use it to observe the people?"

"A bit of both," he said, his lips brushing against her hair from behind. There was enjoyment in his voice when he spoke. "The condominium over there-" He pointed towards one of the buildings close to them. "that's where K'thuna, the head of the biggest crime syndicate lives. And ten floors up. That's where the head of the justice department moved in." He turned his voice into a whisper. "I don't think he knows who his neighbour is. K'thuna uses someone else as a front. Almost fooled me for a while." Of course, he had found out about it eventually. K'thuna might be able to fool the inhabitants of this planet but, naturally, he was no match for a Norse god.

That surprised her, that he knew so much already. But then... there was the stones, perhaps it was more time than she realized? "Do you think the Kingpin will get found out? Or do you think he will slink around under the Justice Head's nose? Or perhaps he will sway justice and bribe him..." It was a real crime novel just in arms reach. "But then again, if K'thuna finds out that the head of the Justice department lives this close, he could just have him assassinated, if he were to become a problem." All the possibilities. But perhaps it was only human nature that made her think this way? It was hard to say. "Are you thinking of getting involved?"

"I'm always thinking of getting involved," Loki purred into her ear. He couldn't help it. After centuries it was a habit he did not think about any longer. Nonetheless, he couldn't help but chuckle at her enthusiasm. Which brought him to an idea... "What is it that you would do?" They only rarely had interacted with people outside of the station together or in Shannon's case probably at all. "Would you want him to be found out?" Another curious purr. Morally, there were codes everyone seemed to follow. He usually decided that they were a bore. It was only natural that he wanted to see if his mate felt the same.

Shannon tilted her head toward his purred voice. She loved the effect it had on her. Goosebumps slid along her skin, and warmth spread from her middle. She hummed softly in response to his question. "I think I would have to know more about them. Do you have anymore information you can share? Like, for instance, which is better for the people?"

He quirked an eyebrow at the response. "You think like a ruler," he said with a hum himself. There were over things he has been taught. How one had to show strength, how one had to command respect... but it was hardly of relevance. "I cannot claim to possess comprehensive information. But from what I know the answer is - as so often - a very clear 'it depends'. He is a drug dealer and plenty die each year. Prostitution is another trade he dabbles in. But he brings order to parts of the city who would be orderless without him and which might very well succumb into chaos and violence." The way the city was ruled was in disarray.

"Well, I would like to think I thought like you, at least a little. I wouldn't say I could rule anyone." She was too closed off, but she had been around him long enough for at least some to rub off. "What about the Head of Justice, what can you tell me about him?" Drugs and prostitution were two things that were as old as nearly any world, she wasn't surprised to hear that they existed on this one. They had existed on the island, just quietly. Those that knew about it had a habit of looking the other way.

"Ah," he started to talk, ready to jump into another round of explanations. Then he noticed he didn't actually know too much about the Head of Justice or how the justice department was run in general. His mouth shut again in comic fashion, frowning for a second. "Not quite sure," he admitted. "Hmm..." It was something worth finding out maybe... "I've heard rumours of corruption. Hmm..."

She turned her attention back to the window, but in a way that his reflection was what she saw, rather than what was beyond it. "I can't say I can make a choice, without knowing for sure." Because if it was him, and this was someone else having this very same discussion, she'd want them to check real hard into the rumors and accusations. Not that he couldn't take out a man like K'thuna. But she saw him rule this place some day...

"Then how about we find out?" he said, cheeky smile in place. His mind was already starting to formulate a plan. "If my information rings true, he has a meeting later on. We could take a look around his apartment." He had missed that, growing up. Having someone to share his quests and mischievous deeds with. Someone to share his findings and adventures with. Loki had always pushed the boundaries of what was lawful and often blatantly stepped over them. There had not been many willing to join his quest without judgement and a guilty conscience.

Shannon's interest grew. He had never invited her to go on an adventure before. Not like this. "Let's go!" She couldn't, and wouldn't, hide her enthusiasm from him. But she didn't pull away from him. She did like it when he draped over her like this. "We need disguises. So no one will recognize us, should things..." Unfold for him.

"Ah, yes," he remarked. Loki had a reckless streak. Having a child, now grandchildren had dimmed it a little. His life had become more important and his death had shown him how quickly it was wasted. A flick of his hand and illusion settled over them, turning them into servants of the apartment complex they were headed into. They did, however, still look the same to each other. For a second he led the illusions flicker over them, just so she could get a glance at the pair that was standing in their stead now. Pale yellow skinned versions of themselves, features only changed ever so slightly. Their hair made out of thick brown strands. "How do you like yourself, my love?"

"I like it. We look like a pair of secret agents ready to do some spy work." Though it wasn't a disguise she'd want to wear all the time. She liked their natural bodies. Liked being a dragon most of all. But this once? She was just enjoying that they were about to do something they had yet to do together. Shannon only hoped that she would be able to keep her cool once they reached the Head of Justice's apartment.

For a moment, Loki shut his eyes. His conscience slipped into the room they were bound to head into. He could see the door shutting behind a leaving figure. A smirk settled on his face when he noticed the room was finally empty.

"Excellent," he purred. "Because we are ready to go..." A second later a cloud of dark grey and blue transported them over to the other room. Unlike Loki's apartment, this one was rather dark. Dark grey walls, black furniture. Liquor bottles were splattered on the coffee table, some were even sitting on the floor. It wasn't the only sign of a mess. The build in kitchen had unclean plates on its counter and used clothes hung over the back of the sofa. Two open doors gave glimpses into other rooms. One a study, the other a bed room. "This is very unbecoming of a man of such stature." The disapproval could be heard in his voice. "We should have some time to ourselves now and if someone comes up, we are servants here to..." His eyes darted around. "...clean." It was definitely needed.
