The Asgardian sighed to himself as he sat on the pier, bare arms crossed while his feet dangled the edge toward the water. He seemed content to sit there and think, staring across the shimmering ocean as the sun glittered and danced upon it. Thor felt as if he lived both a busy life and a boring one, these days. It felt strange to him to have gone back to sitting around. Even back home he had the opportunity to go out and fight, protect people, or at least meander the busy streets. Everything here was so quiet it was like that perfect painting people always wanted to be transported to. Now, Thor had known that living on Earth with Jane would be like an extended holiday, and perhaps that was not his cup of tea, or he hadn't found the right job yet...Here, though, he hadn't wanted to come here.

He needed something to do and bad.

Steve had been spending a great deal of time in the water since the island saw fit to give him a tail. He really was enjoying it. He'd been swimming for a while when he came to the surface, deciding to go back home. That was, however, when he saw Thor sitting on the pier and looking a bit down. He swam over and looked up at the other man, wondering if he'd even seen him.

"Hey."

	Thor hadn't noticed much of anything in his daze so it wasn't until Steve was much closer did he see him. He looked down and watched the mer-man come near before he made a face. It was hard to tell if he was confused, trying to be nice, or laughing on the inside. "Steve," he said in that deep voice of his. "Why are you half fish?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"The island is messing around with me. This time I don't mind it so much." He shrugged. It definitely made being with Micha a little easier. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I have had enough for the time being," Thor replied with a smile. "I am not sure how I feel about being a woman." He chuckled slightly and looked down at his friend again after having glanced up and around at the sky.

"Is it permanent, do you think?" the god asked before dropping off of the pier's edge into the water with a splash. Might as well do what he came for!

	Steve shrugged again. "I don't know. Part of me would like it to be and part of me hopes it isn't. I'm still me, though. Supersoldier and all. Just with a tail." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 07:10 pm UTC (link)
	"Seems like fun," Thor said as he tread the water in place. "I must say, I am having a difficult time finding ways to spend my days when I am not training with Katherine." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	"I could use some help, actually." Steve offered. "I want to build a kind of vacation spot for Micha and myself. Something with easy access to the water for her. Would you be interested in helping me out?" He didn't really need the assistance, but he did want to help his friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	Thor nodded. "That would be nice, yes," he agreed. Anything was better than nothing so he was glad for the offer and gave his old Cap a smile. "I do not think I have met Micha. If I have, I cannot remember. You are in love with her?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah." He nodded. "In the time that we're from we've been together for nearly 25 years. We..have a daughter." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 07:33 pm UTC (link)
	Another smile, fond and friendly. "That sounds nice," he said with a nod, swimming out a few strokes so he could wash back in slowly with the waves of the tide. "What is her name?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 07:45 pm UTC (link)
	"We named her Kytana, after Micha's very dear friend." He smiled at the memory. "She got married not long before I got sent back to this time. Probably made me a grandfather yet again by now." He sighed as he thought about what he was missing, then shook the thought away. "She looks, just like Micha. I have a picture in my things, I can show you sometime."

"Aahh, that is a very good name," Thor agreed. He didn't know much in the way of family or names, but it sounded good and he was always happy for his friends. With Katherine, he was trying to make up for the wrongs he did to his brother as well as make her feel as if she were a part of their family, extended or otherwise.

"I would like to see." He paused and gave a smirk. "You don't happen to have any fortune for me, have you?"

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	"I try not to share too much but I know you're still around." He nodded. That much he was happy to tell. "I need to ask first but maybe you could come over for dinner sometime? If the others in the house are amenable, of course." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	Thor wasn't sure if he was glad to be here or not, but he accepted it and knew that fortune was not something to play with. "I would like that," he said and ran a hand over his wet hair to slick it back. "Please, send my regards to Micha." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	"I will." He nodded. "How have things been since you came back? I know we haven't talked much." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Fine, I suppose," Thor said with a shrug as she resumed treading water. "I am training Katherine in combat with various weapons. I like to think she is enjoying it as much as I am," he chuckled. "I do not do much but train myself. It's very boring." He laughed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	Steve chuckled and nodded. "There was a time that I was at that point. It's part of the reason I started painting." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	"I will have to find a hobby. I cannot say I've needed one previously," Thor said with a joking tone as he swam out again and waft back in on the tide. Wee. "Women are also acceptable time consumers," he mused. "I think I am terrifying to the few I have met." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	"You can be pretty intimidating." He nodded. The tail was helping him stay in place regardless of the tide. "And there are some with male relatives that would try to fight you." He chuckled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	"I am the friendliest!" Thor shout with a laugh. "I do not wish to fight anyone. Well, that would be a lie, I do enjoy a good fight. Just not because brothers are pompous. I would never inappropriately court a woman!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	"You are very friendly, but you're also rather large and tend to be loud." He chuckled. "And you are a gentleman for sure. Though some brothers don't care about that. They're simply overprotective of their sisters." He smiled. All of my son's have acted crazy toward the men that dated my daughters. And I wasn't much better." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:26 pm UTC (link)
	"Loud, ah ha!" Thor said, loudly, as they made their jokes. He then shrugged a bit and swam around, enjoying the cool water on the warm of the morning. "I can understand. We will see. I have not met many, to be fair. I have only spent some private time with Lydia, Malia, and Juliet, outside of Katherine. Ah, and Maryanne, but she was very small." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:29 pm UTC (link)
	"And Maryanne is very married." He chuckled. "Though from what I've heard, you could probably spend some more private time with Juliet. I could be wrong, though. Isabel felt the need to gossip so I pretended to listen." He dove under the water for a moment before coming back up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Heard?" Thor raised a brow and swam after his friend. "Heart what?" he asked, curious as to what the girl had said. Honestly, Thor hadn't talked about their quality alone time with anyone. Kat probably knew but he hadn't said anything on the subject. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	Steve was fighting very hard to fight a smirk. "Like I said, I wasn't really paying attention. You'd have to ask Isabel." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Have you ever seen me throw a man?" Thor said in a playful but threatening tone as he watched Steve's face. "It would be even easier because you are half-man. What did you hear?" He laughed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	Steve laughed. "I just know, from what Isabel told me, that Juliet was very impressed with that picture of you that Kat shared with the female population of the island." He shrugged. "And for the record, I'm actually heavier with the tail than without. " (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 08:59 pm UTC (link)
	Thor huffed and nodded. "Well lets see how far I can throw you then!" he teased as he swam after Steve in jest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 09:05 pm UTC (link)
	Steve laughed and dove under the water, swimming away. With the tail he got a few yards away quickly, then came back up to the surface. "Think you can catch me?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	"No," Thor said with a laugh of his own, not even trying. "I can swim but I am no match for people of the sea." He stroked backward, then, and began to float toward the shore. "What do you think of Juliet, then?" he called to his friend. "She is very young." Not that that had stopped him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	Steve quickly swam back to catch up with his friend. "I think she's very smart. And I won't deny she's pretty. Young doesn't matter, honestly. She's an adult capable of making up her own mind." He nodded. "The question is, what do you think of her?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	The god considered this with a nod, continuing to float as his mind wandered. "I do not know much of her, but what I know I do enjoy. We had a good time. Perhaps I will ask her for drinks." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	"I think that's a good idea. Talk to her, get to know her, see how it goes." He smiled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded. "I cannot say I've done this in a long time," he confessed with a chuckle to himself. "Things are done very differently on Asgard." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	"I can imagine." Steve nodded. "Of course the women are a lot different there." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	"Indeed," Thor laughed. "I think I have only seen Laura come close, but only in power. There is something in the way the women on Asgard carry themselves I have never seen anywhere else amongst the Nine Realms." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	"It's a level of confidence that other women just can't master." He nodded. "I've met Lady Sif, even Peggy doesn't match up to her. But don't tell her I said that or she'll try to prove me wrong." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Thor grinned and nodded. "I will keep it as our secret," he replied, looking up to the sky. It was going to be a nice day, he thought. "What is your next great artistic masterpiece that you work on now?" he asked to change the subject. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	"My six year old counterpart has commissioned a painting for his girlfriend for her birthday." He smirked. The crush that little Steve had on Sophia was adorable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	"Six? He is a master already..." Thor teased with a bright grin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-24 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	"He has a pretty big crush on Sophia. I joke about her being his girlfriend. She babysits him often." He chuckled. "He is rather adept at charming the ladies with his cuteness, though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	god_ofthunder 2015-04-24 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, he is very cute," Thor conceded. "I have watched one of these movies and I find men think they need a dog or a baby to make themselves attractive. I think they need to work out more." He couldn't keep a straight face, despite his effort to do so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2015-04-25 02:27 am UTC (link)
	Steve laughed. "Not all women like muscular men, though." (Reply to this) (Parent)
