[Thor laughs, a low rumble in his chest. He hasn't had much interaction with Mr. Gold but from what he has, he can say-- Loki is worse. Loki is like the love child of Gold and the Evil Queen, which is a strange thing to think about so he tries not to think about it very hard.]

He's adopted anyway.

[He tightens his arms around her for a brief moment, and places a kiss against the side of her hair.]

When she's older. So she'll be able to remember it.

[Because he really isn't supposed to be bringing humans there a lot.]

So that she'll remember it, or so that your father doesn't have to deal with an infant screaming her way through his kingdom?

[ their daughter has a perfect pair of lungs on her. she can't imagine gods who've existed for thousands of years would be especially impressed with her ability to scream when she's unhappy, although she she has to give it to Thor - he knows how to make the baby laugh. sometimes even when he doesn't mean to.]

Is he going to upset that you had a child with a - me?

[ doesn't entirely matter whether it's the human thing that's the issue or the fact that she's her. she just has to wonder whether or not that's going to be an issue. dating a human might be one thing, but they've started a family. it's a little more serious than anyone might have expected.]

Father loves children.

[Which is a diplomatic way of saying that Odin the Allfather doesn't always love what his son gets up to. He's more likely to blame Thor himself for it all by now. After becoming an Avenger and bringing another Earth girl home. It's not an accident or a ploy, it's a pattern. He likes humans. He finds them fascinating and funny and worthy of his protection.

And his love apparently, given what he feels for Emma and their daughter.]

He's accepted I will spend my time on Midgard for the foreseeable future. Asgardians measure time differently. Someday I'll return and take my birthright. There's no rush.

[Or did she forget that he's actually like thirteen hundred years old by Earth standards.]

I know, but you might not return alone.

[ she gets that she is basically seen as some kind of phase every god goes through when they want to get out of their family's realm for a while and sow their wild oats, but this sowing created a daughter that might be as much her father's side as she is Emma's. it's possible that Samantha isn't entirely human, and considering what her father is, Emma wouldn't be all that surprised. a god and a savior created a child together, the real shocker would be if this kid turned out normal.

because after she slept with him, she'd decided that nine-month consequences weren't possible between gods and humans from different realms, so now all bets are off. as it turns out, the two of them are almost too compatible. she's done the math and he knocked her up within the first two weeks that the two of them started having sex. if she didn't care so much about him, she would've killed him for that.]

Sometimes I think she's more you than me.

[ in good ways, to be honest. she's an easy baby and Emma doubts anyone could have said that about her.]

[Well Samantha didn't spend several hours in the cold, Maine forest so any baby would be more easy going than Emma.

He ponders that for a moment, frowning a little and running his hand along the outside of her thigh. It's probably that Samantha isn't entirely human. But he has very little idea of what demi gods actually turn out like. Maybe someone told him once, when he was a child but he was more interested in his training as a warrior than to care about babies.

Asgardians and humans are very compatible. Got it. Filed away for the future.]

If that's true, she'll have the choice to live where she wants. You have my word on that.

[ in classic Emma Swan fashion, there's only one way to deal with falling in love with someone who's basically immortal: by spending no less than ninety-nine percent of the time not dealing with it or considering the future. she doesn't want to think about him looking the same way he does now forty years in the future when she's old and gray. it comes up every once in a while, but they're handling this whole thing one day at a time.

besides, if he knew she was thinking about them being together decades from now, she's not sure she'd ever hear the end of it. some things are better kept to herself.] Well, if I have your word... [ she tends to take him at it, that's how much faith she has in her ridiculous warrior.

she reaches up to guide him closer, lets him feel the curl of a smile against his mouth when she steals a kiss. their daughter can make her home in either world, but the same is true for him. and if he leaves her a little breathless, and if she hesitates for a moment or two, it's to make sure she's ready to say exactly what she's been feeling all this time.]

I know that you'll always protect her. I know how much you love her; us. We love you too, I love you, Thor.
