Hygiene issues aside, is anyone actually enjoying anything about Paris?

Comments

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE Only what I learned through my short school career in France
@BRUNNHILDE They're very proud of this revolution so it was covered quite extensively
@BRUNNHILDE I was a bit distracted during my time there though so can't say it all sunk in as much as I would've liked
@BRUNNHILDE Certainly would be coming in handy right about now

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB You may have it a little more detailed than myself, though I would like to think my own knowledge is fair.
@BROKEBACKSTAB How long were you in France for?

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE About a year or so.
@BRUNNHILDE My father had wanted me to come home, it was only meant to be a month long stay but
@BRUNNHILDE I decided to enroll into school against his wishes
@BRUNNHILDE As the saying goes: Good times

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB What was it like studying in another country?

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE It was
@BRUNNHILDE Nice

@BRUNNHILDE Must be honest though, I didn't do a whole lot of studying

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB You probably wouldn't be the first to admit that.

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE :)
@BRUNNHILDE Guess being young and reckless does that to you
@BRUNNHILDE Don't regret a single bit of it though
@BRUNNHILDE Forgive my prying but are you from Germany?

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB Switzerland actually, but I've spent time in Germany.
@BROKEBACKSTAB Why do you ask?

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE Your username had me curious
@BRUNNHILDE I realize these UNs aren't of our choosing but they seem to reflect something about ourselves
@BRUNNHILDE If in sometimes wildly vague and humorous ways.

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB I would offer to trade stories on them though I'll let you decide whether you wish to answer about yours.
@BROKEBACKSTAB But you are correct, mine does reflect something about me.
@BROKEBACKSTAB How much do you know about Germanic myth?

[handsomefoil]

[ he'll try very hard not to confuse her ]

@BRUNNHILDE Not my area of expertise but
@BRUNNHILDE I do know Brunhilde was a shieldmaiden
@BRUNNHILDE And there are slight variations of her story

[heilt]

( its okay she got this )

@BROKEBACKSTAB A shieldmaiden and Valkyrie, something which I was known as.

( varying her own story. she's taking jack's advise and using valkyrie as her name, instead of mercy, coming from her valkyrie swift response suit )

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE You were known as a Valkyrie?
@BRUNNHILDE Sounds like a story in itself
@BRUNNHILDE Aren't Valkyries known for choosing who live and die in battle?
@BRUNNHILDE If I'm taking the meaning of the word literally anyway

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB Perhaps a story better told elsewhere.
@BROKEBACKSTAB Telling our stories so publicly doesn't sound wise.

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE Rather in person?
@BRUNNHILDE Don't blame you for not wanting to have your story out in the public eye
@BRUNNHILDE But now I'm very curious about what it is you do.

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB I wonder if you'll be disappointed when you hear it.
@BROKEBACKSTAB [ have a location for where to meet her ]
@BROKEBACKSTAB If you're curious enough.

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE I doubt it
@BRUNNHILDE Every story is interesting in its own right
@BRUNNHILDE How will I recognize you?

[heilt]

@BROKEBACKSTAB That is a good question.

( have a little description )

@BROKEBACKSTAB Hopefully that helps.

[handsomefoil]

@BRUNNHILDE Perfect.
@BRUNNHILDE See you soon

[heilt]

( she's already there by the time that he arrives, making it (at first) look like she's looking for something rather than just waiting )

It occurs to me that I didn't get a name for you.

[handsomefoil]

[ You're a smooth operator Angie, he doesn't suspect a thing. Tipping his head a little in apology, he smiles in greeting. ]

Henry. I would've brought something to drink or something, but housewarming gifts are a bit hard to come by around here.

[heilt]

It seems a strange sort of sentiment. We're not at home.

( nor could they settle or do any similar things )

[handsomefoil]

[ yougotmethere.gif

He shrugs a little, grinning. ]

True. At least let me say it's a pleasure to meet you, Brunhilde. Though... I take it that's not your actual name.

[heilt]

It's not. ( and neither is the name that she'll give him. hope he can forgive xoxo ) But it is nice to put a name with some of the faces I've been seeing around.

( and not yet getting involved with, unless they'd ended up needing medical aid )

Shall we walk? We could see more of Paris as we talk.

[handsomefoil]

[ He would be disappointed, but not terribly surprised. He can forgive her. It's also noted how she doesn't offer any name whatsoever, but he figures she'll let him know. Involved or not. ]

We shall. [ And he bows his head a little as if letting her take the first step. As they fall into step alongside each other and take in the strangely familiar (to him)
yet not scenery, he speaks again: ] How do you feel about this mission?
