Summary:

Lyric experiences Asgard, Asgard experiences Lyric.

Lyric's POV

I glanced around in awe, while still clinging to Loki. This place was..... AMAZING. We were standing on the still broken Bifrost Bridge, with a mountain of a man standing a few feet away, staring intently at us.

"Heimdall" Thor greeted the man.

"Thor" he answered back in a deep voice, his gaze moving to Loki "Loki, it's good to see YOU again" he rumbled out, before glancing at me and then adding "and then some".

I pulled away from Loki's grip, my head cocked while I assessed the man before me. He KNEW about the connection Loki and I had. How?

"Heimdall knows everything" Loki's voiced whispered down the link.

"Yes, but he didn't know about your possession" I mused slowly, "That was blocked to him"

"How do you know?" Loki questioned down the link.

"I read his mind" I admitted sheepishly "And he knows that I did..."

"You were blocked to him before" I sent down the link "He could see you but not ALL of you, he thought that it was your magic blocking him, not something, someone, else and he feels regret that he wasn't able to see more".

I tore my gaze from the intense man and took a step forward in order to take in my surroundings, the boys giving me a minute to take it all in. Asgard was stunning. Looking out to the horizon I could see a sunset slowly creeping up, pink tinged clouds lazily flitted by as the azure sky melted into purple, then navy tones, speckled with millions of stars, distant planets slowly becoming visible in the darkening sky. I could only stare as I watched the most incredible sunset in all of history happen in front of my very eyes. It seemed to be almost a crime to tear my gaze away from the almost indescribable sight before me, to take in the rest of Asgard. The city stretched out before me, the sunset bathing everything in a golden light, making it all look vast and rich. The palace absolutely glittered in the sun, shimmering in an array of golden hues. The bridge beneath my feet, although still broken, seemed crystalline in nature and shimmered with all the colors of the rainbow.

I was completely awestruck and had no clue what to say or do. It suddenly occurred to me, that although I was a supernatural being, I was still a mortal among gods and I felt terribly under dressed, with my worn out sneakers and slightly ripped jeans. I also found myself wishing that I had left my hair down to hide my scars.

"You look fine" Loki's voice murmured down the link "And the scars make you look strong."

"Easy for you to say" I grumbled back, relaxing slightly when I realized that I didn't have to explain how I felt, Loki got it. He knew and that helped him understand how I felt.

"Don't get going all sentimental on me" he threatened "I can't handle that right now"

"Sorry if I am slightly overwhelmed" I hissed back, causing Zara to growl at Loki through the link. Which only made him look irritated. Good.

Thor had been quietly talking to Heimdall and was now looking at the two of us "Let's go talk to Father" he suggested.

I nodded as Loki sighed, the sudden surge dread and apprehension that welled up in him was enough to rock me back on my feet. I gasped in surprise when I felt a huge hand reach out and steady me, turning slightly, I could see that it was Heimdall, I smiled and nodded at him gratefully, as he pinned me with that intense gave of his.
