#janefosterweek day 4: favourite appearanceJane rubbed her arms. “I feel so exposed.”Frigga smiled gently. “It suits you. Your usual attire is different?”‘Something like that,” Jane muttered. “You saw the clothes I arrived in?”“Indeed, though they had suffered much damage. Apparently the healers were scandalised.”“What? Why? Because it’s not a dress?”“No, because your attire was akin to that of a warrior, designed to give ease of movement.”“Sif’s a warrior,” Jane protested hotly, only to be cut off by Frigga’s laugh.“She is, and her armour is specially constructed. The healers were distressed that your attire had no such protection.”“Oh. Yeah, I don’t normally need actual armour.” Instead, she had her layers, protection against those who saw an attractive woman and ignored her brain. She found other scientists took her more seriously when she was dressed like them. Besides, it was more comfortable.“You will note that they have tried to add some armour to your current outfit, though it is lighter than an Asgardian would wear.”Jane supposed the presumption of weakness should rankle, but she was struck by a thought. “Are you wearing armour too?”“No. I am the Queen in my own palace. If I require armour, then something will have gone terribly wrong.”Jane felt the Aether pulse beneath her skin, a second heartbeat. “Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, I’m ready to go.”Side by side, scientist and queen left the courtyard. -- source link
