[The girl onscreen might look vaguely familiar; anyone who's befriended Valkyrie during her time in Riverview might recognize her, but with a slightly softer face, shorter hair, and looking a good decade younger...in human years, anyway. The last time she looked like this, she went by the name Brunnhilde...but she's not telling a soul that. She's currently pouting as she faces her phone camera, propped up on her bed in her new room in Thor's house.]

Look. Far be it from me to complain about shaving a few years off, but this is fucking—

[She cuts off out of sheer frustration, and clenches a fist near her jaw.]

No liquor store will sell to me! I tried explaining that I'm actually, like, multiple millennia old, but of course I can't fucking prove it.

[Val sticks out her tongue, going momentarily cross-eyed.]

Anyway, point is. Who's going to buy me booze?

[ So Ben has no idea why his name's misspelled as 'ren' on this device, but he knows it belongs to him, so he's going to use it to send a response, anyway.

And since he's 15 right now, and she's so pretty, he feels an inexplicable urge to do something stupid to impress her.

Ah, adolescence. ]

I could do it. I could get them to sell you anything.

[trashvalkyrie]

[You've got her attention; beyond that floppy dark hair there's a face she nearly recognizes, even, but she's more interested in what he's saying. She raises her brows inquisitively.]

Yeah? How's that?

[killthepast]

[ He doesn't want to just say 'THE FORCE,' in case she doesn't even know what it is, so... ]

Just. By talking them into it? I'm good at it. At... persuasion.

[ HE HAS HIS FATHER'S WAY WITH WORDS. ]

[trashvalkyrie]

[She looks at him with the complete lack of caution that only accompanies one's rebellious teenage years.]

Yeah? Prove it.

[killthepast]

[ He bites his lip. Okay so there's no way to say this without it sounding weird, but HERE GOES: ]

It's gotta be in person.

[ He can't Jedi mind trick from a distance! ]

[trashvalkyrie]

[She doesn't miss a beat.]

Right, then. Where do we meet?

text; stark

[inebriety]

How much do you want?

[trashvalkyrie]

enough to get me through however long i'm stuck as a teenage wonder
god what if i'm like this forever
i can't handle the hormones

[inebriety]

So at least your weight every day for the foreseeable future. Done.

You can appreciate the pimples and hormones the second time round even better.

[trashvalkyrie]

god thank you i fucking owe you

i don't see how that's possible but i appreciate your optimism
actually not something i'd have expected out of you

text, @hiccup

[thisisamazing]

Odin's beard, you're a baby.

[Text because he's not going to let Val see him laughing at her. Plausible deniability.]

[trashvalkyrie]

a baby that can still kick your ass

[thisisamazing]

Is that appropriate language for someone your age?

[trashvalkyrie]

[thisisamazing]

That's a very fancy curse. What's the occasion?

video: the general

[oldladyleia]

[Have a younger looking Leia looking a bit amused.]

Do you have a preference?

@scrapper142

[trashvalkyrie]

Oh, uh. Something strong, but like, I think I'm good? I have some kid who's gonna talk people into it for me, and also a super genius has my back, I think.

Switching to private.

[oldladyleia]

This is probably easier than having a kid talk to people about it.

[The kid in question being her son, but she doesn't want to poke at that bear.]

[trashvalkyrie]

[Val cocks her head, looking confused.]

What d'you mean?

[oldladyleia]

I mean that it's easier than involving a child who looks the same way as you do, don't you think?

video; un: youradhere

[buildingcastles]

You're asking random people to buy you drinks? Isn't that, you know, one of those bad life choices parents warn their children about?

<video> @scrapper142

[trashvalkyrie]

Wouldn't know. I haven't been a child for, like, several thousand years.

[paaaause]

Until now, anyway.

[buildingcastles]

You're thousands of years old?

[Lies. Well, no, he could potentially buy that.]

This isn't your roleplaying character, right?

[trashvalkyrie]

Yeah. I normally look older than this, so.

[Like...ten or fifteen years older but it's fine.

Her brow wrinkles.]

What're you on about?

[buildingcastles]

[The way she describes herself, he's definitely visualizing someone along the senior lines when she says older. It might be a fairy thing, going from youth to crone is a familiar enough theme.

And then he's just grinning at her question.]

You've never done roleplaying? Now might be just the time to start. Then you wouldn't need other people to buy you anything.
