"And perhaps pointing the way" THoughtful "yes"

"Unicorn dolphin. Suits you."

"Thanks. Mom and Dad ... and the others, before I was born, when the quest began.. they saved some Narwhals...mortal ones, from Whalers. I've always had a fondness for them since then. Swashbuckler whales complete with blades on their heads." A wink "Well, spears but you get the idea"

"Ooo, yeah."

"BOOM, stab the whaler!"

"Yeah,I Hear the whalers said words in Norweigian that are not fit for polite company when the Wave Maiden interposed"

Dagmar giggles.

"Makes me want to learn the language, is that wrong?"

"Bet it's fun to swear in, Like a viking!"

"Baldur's big beutiful b..nope can't say it"

"...ohhh. Well, balls ain't a curse word either."

"Nope, but mom would give me SUCH a look"

"Oh, she would." She tries an eyebrow.

"close, but lacks the true majesty of me mother's brow... The Brow of Brekke is as legend, and rightly so..for under its shadow, lies wither, and bad behavior flees. Under the shadow of the Brow of Brekke, the trouble makers know fear, for it is inescapable"

"Hmm." She considers. "Brekke's Brow!"

"oh great, NOW I'm going to curse with that right when she's in the room. Thanks, thanks a lot" A smirk

"It's great, right?"

A nudge "it is.."

"Let's make it a thing!"

"you're trying to get me in trouble." Friendly accusation

"But fun trouble."

"Fun for you maybe... come on, let's scare AUnt Kerri and start cooking a meal for everyone. Save her the work"

"Oh! Totally! I can make mashed potatoes, Tove showed me a good method..."

"RIght, and I'll get to started on the pork chops. I don't know many recipes but that one I can do."
