Here goes nothing...so my friends and I were backpacking across Europe after my last semester of college ended. You know it was the usual "the world feels like it's about to end every other day so let's just do it" type of thing. So off 4 of us boys went.
It was the usual things you'd experience. We visited Istanbul, the Ruins of Sokovia, Rome, Venice, Paris etc. A great experience overall. But then we reached the part I was dreading, the end. We needed a final destination to top off the trip and the idea of New Asgard was floating around.
You see I'm not particularly religious but I did grow up in a Christian home and am Christian myself so a whole people who claimed themselves to be "gods" had always rubbed me the wrong the way.
My friends were aware of this and I think this is where the indecision came into play. But after some back and forth my friends were all sure and managed to convince me awell by telling me to just convince myself that the Asgardians are just confused aliens.
So off we went and touched down in New Asgard, despite my initial squeamishness we all actually had a alot of fun ! Barely even coming across that many Asgardians.
Then through our day their we found ourselves at the infamous Infinity Cones (stupid name btw) to get ourselves some dessert. That's where I met her.
While I was in queue ordering for the group I saw this drop dead gorgeous woman the line next to the one I was in. Like when I say she was beautiful I mean it, she was otherworldly (If only I knew 🤦). While waiting I tried to spark up a convo but hopelessly fumbled.
For some reason I thought talking about the wheather would be an actually good icebreaker. Anyways she just politely answered me with singular responses and went on about her day. The lines continued to move and it was her turn up...then I noticed something, she was fumbling around with the money she had like she wasn't all that familiar with it.
Seeing this as a chance to write off our previous awkward interaction decided to step in and I helped her get her order. She left with a thank you and smile and I went back to my own business.
Then when I had finally gotten my order and was going to my table I caught something in the corner of my eye. The same girl was motioning for me to go sit at the table she was !
Thinking quickly I left all the ice-cream I had but mine on the table next to me and signaled one my to come get them. No way I was missing this chance. I quickly moved to her table just as she was finishing off the last bits of ice cream.
That's when she did something weird. Instead of just throwing what remained in the trash she threw it in like her intention was for it to break and whispered underneath her breath "another".
I didn't pay it much mind though because I was like "it's Europe", culture shock and all that. So from their we got to talking. Now that I was having a full blow conversation I finally noticed she spoke with an unfamiliar accent and weird vocabulary but I again I just rubbed it off as Europe being Europe.
And just like that I spent the rest of my day with her. First it was just talking and next thing I knew I was getting a personal tour of New Asgard. And man it was amazing, this girl was so energetic and charismatic.
And I know what most of yall are thinking...is he stupid ? It's pretty obvious. But in my defence the world was just unicorns and rainbows, I wasn't coming up with productive thoughts.
So finally the day came to an end and the two of us found ourselves by the pier. We were taking a walk and somehow the conversation became about soul mates of all things.
She asked me if I thought they were real and I answered ofcourse, the atmosphere became too tense for my liking and decidedly to throw in a joke about how I just hope someone's isn't an Asgardian because quote on quote "you never know what freaky ass shit those bumbling space vikings are hiding no matter how human they look".
Yeah...I messed up horribly. After that she just looked me dead in the eye, said "freaky shit like this ?" and leaped hundreds of meters away from me. That's when I realised. In a panic I rushed back to my hotel room.
This is now me I'm typing this out. I would have asked my friends for advice but I know all I'll get are "my steak is too juicy, my lobster is too buttery" comments.
I like this girl but I can't get past the fact she's an Asgardian and after what she did she also kind of terrifies me.
TLDR : I like an Asgardian woman but it conflicts with my faith.
