Snakes on a Plane (of Existence) [Fianna & Luke]

Fi was tired. She'd been training for hours with her fellow Valkyries in combat, speed racing, and obstacle courses that not only tested their endurance, but their minds as well. For a Valkyrie never knew what she'd come up against in the 9 Realms. Silvy and Ian were busy with their own training, and so Fi was dressed in casual wear, with her Valkyrie armband evident on her arm. A stylized Snake design was on her skirt, along with other Norse Symbols. Currently, she was staring at NNN (Norse News Network) on the tv, wondering why they actually needed a weather Forecast for a Realm of Fire...

Luke was walking from training to his room, currently bored out of his mind. He had met some new friends and was starting to get better at combat against he others. He went 2-0 today, a feat he was really proud of. However, without his Valkyrie and true love, Kehlani, he had no one to talk to and have fun with. It kind of made him feel lonely, like he needed other friends if this is where he spent eternity. Luke, after bored in his room watching nothing but a the news, went down to the lobby. He noticed the same channel was on in the lobby. Looking around, he noticed a girl, a Valkyrie, and bored, decided to go talk to her. "Fun day, huh?" he said as he approached her. "I'm Luke."

"Tell me about it. Running all over creation doing errands for Odin, then school, arguing with the Einherjar, and dealing with my own twin brother being an Undead dork." She'd laugh, then wave a hand, indicating a free seat. "I'm Fianna Harper, but you can call me Fi." Doesn't ask about his parentage yet. "So, how was Training to the Death? Boring as usual?"

"I see. Are you your brother's Valkyrie?" Luke asked, looking at her. "Eh, I haven't been here long, but I'm starting to get better at it, finding my groove again. I defeated two people today, and took zero losses, a big accomplishment for me." He paused to look at the news broadcast. "So, Fi, do you know my Valkyrie, Kehlani?"

She'd laugh. "No, Hanna is my Brother's Valkyrie. We were helping evacuate a burning building and I was the one that survived entirely, Ian shortly afterwards. They decided it would be easier to recruit me, since it would be a bit hard to explain why I survived and Ian died. So, the rest of the world thinks I'm dead, and nobody knows us in Boston, anyways. I did get to see the rest of the family at my own funeral, which was pretty surreal. Even saw Mom, though she disappeared before she said anything. I have to admit, being disguised and at your own Funeral is just weird. Ian won't stop complaining about how he was buried instead of cremated. Wants me to arrange for him to be cremated. I was like 'With what money do you expect me to do this with?' and he just shrugged." She'd pause for a bit."Kehlani? I kinda know her. Mostly see her whenever they gather all of us together, and when you guys are eating. Haven't had a lot of time to talk to her, though. Why?"

"Oh, that's always fun. I died while trying to slay a giant, just a little bit ago, actually, maybe a few weeks. I actually was helping out who turned out to be my Valkyrie, Kehlani. And, I was just wondering if she ever mentioned me, you know? If she ever talked about me to her friends besides the generic 'yeah he's my einherjar'." Luke paused, watching the news. "Do you ever hear her say anything about me?"

She'd blink, running a hand through her hair. "Sometimes. Mostly in annoyance. Sometimes as bragging. If I got her drunk, I could probably get a lot of interesting gossip from her. Want me to do that some time?" She'd start idly braiding her hair outta nowhere!, when a thought struck her. "Oh, so who is your Parent?" He seemed like a "Thor", or maybe a "Frey" or a "Freya". But she wasn't that good at guessing, which is why she's asking.

"How does she brag about me?" Luke asked with a big smile on his face. "You'd really her get drunk for me? I mean, like, drunk enough to gossip about me? I'd love to see you do that sometime, but it doesn't have to be necessarily when I'm around, just tell me the results. Here," he gave her his phone. "Put in your number. Oh, I'm a Loki kid."

She'd shrug, typing her number into his phone. "I often amuse myself getting people drunk. There's not a lot to do when I'm not in school or on call." When she hear's "Loki Kid", she'd give him a big hug. "Loki's my Mom, so I guess that makes us siblings." Makes a face. "Yeah, everyone is weirded out by the fact that Loki's my Mom and not my Dad. I dunno what the problem is, though. Sure, Mom's apparently Genderfluid, but you could argue she's also Species-fluid, since we're related to Jorgmundr and Slepinir." Which, to her, was.... You know what, I can't finish that thought, it's not appropriate. Move along. She'd release the hug. "So that's two dead siblings I've got here. Man, I really hope I've got a half-sister who's a Valkyrie and alive somewhere." She'd pale after she said that, as she realized it was kinda mean... "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made that 'dead' comment..."

"Right. Getting kids drunk is always a solid hobby to have," he joked, before being taken aback by her hugging him. He blushed a little, because a girl never hugged him like that. He awkwardly looked around at some people looking. "Yeah, yeah, cool, we're siblings, yay, now let's talk about it," he said in an awkward fashion. He looked a couple walking by. "She's just my half-sister! I like a hot Puerto Rican Valkyrie!" he yelled, before she released the hug. "It's fine, I've accepted being dead at this point. I'm stuck eternally in an awesome, neverending hotel with awesome food and an awesome room and a hot Puerto Rican Valkyrie, I think I'll be okay."

She'd look at the Couple and shouted at them. "Baise-toi nous sommes frères et soeurs!" Returning her attention to her new sibling, she'd nod. "I can understand that. Do you use Mom's gift at all?" Referring to the Shapeshifting. "No, I'm not going to translate what I said, it's inappropriate.((seriously, don't)) And no, I'm not going to tell you exactly what I said. As for why I said it in a different language, well, it's one of the languages used in the country Ian and I were born in."

"Mom's gift? Shapeshifting, you mean? Yeah, I use it a lot, and really like it. And, oh, other languages are always fun." Luke laughed a bit, then turned his attention to the news again. "Ian. I think I know of Ian's Valkyrie, Hanna. I think she's one of Kehlani's friends. I heard that Finn kid was flirting with her. Hanna, not Kehlani."

"Shapeshifting is fun. Sometimes I shift into Ian, insult some of the guys, hide and change back. I really shouldn't be doing that, but I need some entertainment now and then." She'd laugh lightly. "Finn? I don't think I know who that is. And I'm not sure if Valkyries are allowed to date the Warriors, but I don't really see why I should care: I'm not in charge." Gods forbid she be in charge, things wouldn't get done!
