Then a sigh, and a brief grin at Gerd. "I will let you know when." Then a measuring look at Vali. "Your insides are entirely better?"

"They are' He says. Truth.

Another sigh, and she pushes to stand. She is, indeed, looking far more solid in her seeming. "Then let us go."

The horse is lead to rest, and he seems to allow this. But he does muzzle bump them each to go on themselves. Yearlings need rest.

Siv mouths 'thank you' to Vali hoping her mom doesn't see. Vali simply says "Yes, Chieftain." And they head out.

Sylvi makes sure there's water and grain available (somebody must have gotten some from the farm on a quick run).

She pets his nose one last time. "Goodnight, Stormwake."

A nicker of farewell

"Nice to meet you," Sylvi waves to the horse as they go, then says to Dagmar, "He really likes you."

"He's pretty cool. I think he liked having an adventure."

The two girls return, though Sylvi has to contact Colton so he won't hear about htis and worry. Kerri has gone to the kitchen to clean up.

Dag drifts to claim a spot by Tove.

Tove cuddles her, not much caring if she's being even worse than not parking up back

Siv waves "Mom and Vali are oft to talk to Baron Kealan the spy master. Very Double O 7 eh?"

Right now, she's not complaining.

"I don't think I like spy stuff. I'd much rather just, well... okay, just fight, with less guts."

"Hey, he had a gun and a fast car and we still got out alive" Siv says "So I sure won't complain about you. How's Stormwake?"

"Good, I think. In his emergency stable."

"Wonder if I can help work on the real one? I do pretty good in shop."

Tove says "I don't think that will be a problem... but you can probably help the DeBukes when they come over to make us one."

Siv raises a brow "They volunteered? They're just gona..whip up one?"

"They raise barns almost over night. I think they can handle a stable... with the Chief's okay" Tove clarifies. "And they owe my father one. "

"Cool" Gerd admits

"Cool, agreed."

Dag leans against Tove, eyes drooping. "Dad is gonna have a cat."

"Probably a maine coon sized one..aye." Tove wont lie, "But you know mostly he'll be relieved that youre okay and unhurt and safe. And he'll be proud you helped save lives.. though he might not make a big to do about it because he got a scare. It's okay. Sides, you know who you'll Really need to apologize to right?"

"...no?"

"Odin.. he is going to have SO many opinions about this. Want to go home, feed him and go to bed?"

Tove clearly means both of them

Dagmar nods. "Uh-huh."

"Siv, Gerd, good night girls. Tell the others thank you. I'm taking my daughter home" And Tove rises with Dagmar gently, letting the big girl prop against her if need be, and takes her home.

"Night guys."

They wish her good night//Odin, by the way, WILL have opinions- Which he will express when sh'es awake..and when she sleeps? well... the cantakerous one eyed tom will insist on making her share the bed. So there.

And the rest of the world's problems can wait until waking.
