[eusebeia]

[ the last time she graced the network with her presence, diana of themyscira explored the wonder of food emojis. now, however, she decides to take a more traditional approach — face-to-face, well, as much as she can over these devices. while she still prefers to meet in person, this will suffice for now. what can she say, she's old fashioned like that. ]

Thanksgiving.

[ she speaks the word softly, almost contemplative, though diana offers a bright smile into the camera. ]

Back home, we had many reasons to be thankful, and we did not limit the occasion to one day. Still, family and friends. [ her smile widens. ] That is something to celebrate.

What other — [ a careful pause, her nose wrinkling a bit. ] "holidays" are there?

[ There is no bright smile on Sif's face, and to be honest she isn't even sure why she is responding to this video. There is no part of her so bright and cheerful as this woman seems to be. Not right now. ]

If a "holiday" means a time for celebration, we had many in my home.

[ When her home still existed... ]

[eusebeia]

[ her own features dim, noting the solemn expression on the other woman's face. ]

I know it's difficult. To be here.

[fiercestwarrior]

I am needed elsewhere.

[ Asgard is a people, not a place, and she will serve them as she always has. ]

[eusebeia]

As am I.

[ she's tried to no avail to escape here. it was an arduous fact to accept. ]

We will find a way to return. [ she refuses to surrender, even now. ] I promise.

[fiercestwarrior]

The promise of a stranger carries little weight, but I appreciate the sentiment.

[ And the attitude. Giving up is very rarely an option for Sif either. ]

[eusebeia]

I can assure you that mine do.

[ she never breaks a promise, no matter how long it takes to fulfill it. ]

[fiercestwarrior]

Then you should be more cautious about making them.

[ Even if rushing boldly into things is certainly a way of doing things that is more than familiar to Sif. ]

[eusebeia]

[ diana lifts her brow in response. ]

Why do you say that?
