𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐈𝐎𝐔𝐒 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐍 𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐎𝐅 𝐖𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐃. From the moment she had been born , she wanted nothing more than 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓. She wasn't like her brother Eric , content and happy to remain safely in Asgard for all of his days. She wanted to travel. See everything the Nine Realms had to offer , and then 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒃𝒆𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕.
Her parents had always wanted nothing more than for her mind to grow and wonder. Something Astrid was eager to do always.
Which was what had caused her 𝒕𝒐 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉 for the small orb whilst going through the large collection of old items and tools , from a time long since past for the Aesir. If they were on Midgard , the closest thin to equate it to , would be a bit of 𝒔𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈. Boring chores for the Princess , even with the company of her uncle with her. Thor , from the moment she had been able to toddle her way around , had gotten himself a little bit of 𝒂 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒅𝒐𝒘 when she wasn't with her parents. Though when it came to Sigyn and Loki's children , they all seemed to hold nothing but love for the thunderer.
She stalled when he took the orb in his hands , 𝒇𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒏 𝒉𝒊𝒎 as he explained what it's intended purpose was. A brilliant creation in it's own time for sure , but the look of confusion as to why one would go through the process , showed how much she had come to rely on some of the technology Asgard used today. Still , the little orb held a 𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒃𝒆𝒂𝒖𝒕𝒚 to it , much like just about everything else that made up the beautiful golden city.
Smiling , there's care in her actions. Taking the little orb to 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒔𝒉 𝒂𝒘𝒂𝒚 in her sachel for later. A mischievous smile inherited from father spreading across her pale face , before nodding along to vow to keep their little secret. After a motion of 𝒍𝒐𝒄𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒍𝒐𝒄𝒌 around ones lips , she looked back to the array of items that they were going through. ❝ 𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬? ❞ She asked whiile turning over some sacks to see what lied underneath. ❝ 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬? ❞
