***********

The lodge is undergoing severe decorations for the event later soon ("Later Soon" Trademarked by Mr. D & Co) where one Mountain retires, and a new one takes up the mantle. Siv mutters about being 'short' as she puts up decorations on high rafters.

"Got a mother barely fits in the door way, a father about the same... Sis looks eye to eye with the tallest NBA guys.. how did I get the runt gene?" Grumble grouse

"I'm looking up to Dagmar, and I don't mean metaphorically... I'm older than she is..." There, got that part pinned, now to the other side

"I could assist if you..." Jonas starts to...

She gives him A LOOK, "You have your own part to do. I'll take care of mine"

"But you were just complaining..." He spreads his hands "And as I am taller I thought maybe.."

"Grrrr" Goes his troll girlfriend

Jonas goes back to sorting things at ground level.

Jonas also does not wisely point out they each tower over Piper. Siv would just say that's different
