Synopsis: Thor and Diana meet over shawarma.
Cast of Characters: Thor, Wonder Woman




Thor has posed:
    It's roughly an hour after the normal lunch rush at the Shawarma restaurant, so the tables are still freshly clean and there's about two people in the joint. One being a blond haired god of Thunder from the Norse realms, and the other is an older white haired woman with her shaky hands slowly pulling some meet from her plate to chomp on slowly.

    The god is at a booth with an axe seated and sheathed next to him, the Nord sits with a plate still full as he sits with one hand on the table and slowly chews at his order, eyes slowly dancing around the droll restaurant.

Wonder Woman has posed:
    Things were busy at the Embassy so Diana hadn't gotten out to lunch at her usual time. She tried to change it up a bit but this was really rather late for her. She tended to prefer earlier to later. When she enters the restaurant, she hesitates just inside the door to let her eyes adjust to the interior. She is wearing a pair of dress slacks with a pair of boots with a short heel, a button up white blouse and a light leather coat over the top of it all. Nothing flashy or screaming her identity but her face was rather well known.
    Thankfully the young woman behind the counter doesn't seem to be one of those who recognies the Amazon. Diana is able to place her order then heads toward a table to await its preparation. Which is when she spots Thor and his axe. That earns a polite smile and perhaps a flash of amusement in her blue eyes as she glances to the axe then back to the god.

Thor has posed:
    The man's seated at a booth, and seems like he could certainly use some company, as he has a bit of meat fall away from his mouth and splats on the paper on top of his plate. The god frowns and lowers one hand to grab the droppings of meat and with a pinch he lifts them up to his mouth and savors the delicious food Tony introduced to him some time ago.

    Thor looks up and over to Diana, unsure of who the woman is, but she does have an oddly striking similarity, so he takes a kindly move and gives the woman a polite wave with a grin on his sauce covered lips and some even in his beard.

Wonder Woman has posed:
    He may not recognize her but Diana is familiar with the Asgardian. By reputation. She moves to his booth and motions to the empty bench on the side opposite from him. "Mind if I join you, Thor?" She won't sit unless he gives the affirmative answer to the question.
    A glance is given toward the counter then she is focused on Thor once more. "I have heard this place is excellent but I admit this is my first time visiting. I'm hoping that the lamb will be as delicious as it smells." She tilts her head slightly to the side. "How is it?" She picks up a napkin and offers it to him absently.

Thor has posed:
    Thor gives a nod towards Diana with a mouthful of his lamb, but he does rise his head repeatedly with a finger pointed towards his full maw. Once he chews enough to swallow again he does so rapidly and speaks while taking the napkin offered to him. Using it to dab at his lips and fuzzy chin, "By Odin's beard the lamb is worthy of fighting for." The god says with an absolute smile and a bellow from his mouth that shakes the glass windows at the front of the store, his's so pleased to give this report.

    "I feel liketh I recognize thee Raven haired woman. What is your name, I feel I am at the disadvantage in this event."

Wonder Woman has posed:
    There is no way to not smile at that glowing review. While many people would find that concept strange, an Amazon can truly respect the sentiment. "Then I am glad I ordered it," she says as she slips into the booth across from him. It is that moment when the woman from the counter delivers her plate along with napkins and a lovely sauce if she would like to add it to her dish.
    "I am sorry. That was rude of me. I am Diana Prince." She offers her hand across the table. "Although many in the patriarch's world call me Wonder Woman."

Thor has posed:
    Patriarch's. Something Odinson has never really given thought to, as the Asgardian culture is turely one of that of equality. "Diana Prince. I still feel like that is a name I should recog- Oh! I see. It's a pleasure to finally meet thee. Princess Prince." The god says, bowing slightly while still seated.

    Thor looks down to his food and takes another massive bite and then a long slurp of the drink he has and shrugs, wishing deeply to have a hard liquor or some proper Asgardian mead, but not this day.

Wonder Woman has posed:
    "It's just Diana. Technically Princess Diana but I prefer not to use titles. It's just...silly," Diana admits with a bit of a smile. She carefully picks up her gyro, uses a spoon to dab some of the sauce on to test it before she commits fully. Taking a good sized bite, she chews a moment before closing her eyes with a sound of contentment. She manages to chew and swallow fully before she speaks. Her mother would be so proud. "By Hera, that is delicious! Better than they made back home. Never tell anyone I said that," she adds quickly.
    She picks up her own drink, which happens to be just water, taking along draw on it. She wipes her mouth with a napkin before speaking again. "I'm surprised with all the various crises that arise, we have not met before today. You are still assisting the Avengers?"

Thor has posed:
    "I have no way to tell anyone." Thor says with a shrug of his enormous shoulders followed by another giant bite of his lunch, though it seems like he wont be able to take many more bites like that, he's nearly down to his fingers.

    "It's one of the few ways to find a really good fight on this realm." Thor says with a kind of sparkle in his blue eyes as he looks back do Diana. "I know it's a stupid way of life, but it is my own and I would not changeth a thing."

Wonder Woman has posed:
    That earns a furrowed brow and a slightly confused look from Diana. "I don't understand why it would be stupid. Your culture, like my own, pride themselves on being warriors. If you didn't enjoy combat, I would find it rather strange indeed." She takes another sip of her drink before continuing. "While my own people try to teach peace and combat as a last resort, I cannot deny that when I am in a battle my blood flows like no other time in my life. So, it isn't stupid at all to help the Avengers while getting that sort of satisfaction at the same time. My work with the Justice League could be considered the same, in truth."

Thor has posed:
    "Then I say the two of us find a battle soon to admire each other during the heat of battle as, I tend to be very curious about how a person fights and what they do under pressure of battle."

    Thor finishes his bite of Shawarma and even goes so boldly as to lick his fingers clean of the sause coating his hand. The god smiles and moans softly his appreciation of the flavor of the lamb gyro. "It is pleasant to meet another person who has the need for conflict and the clashing of metal and bone as the same as I do. Hanging around these humans for too long will maketh thy question thyself."

Wonder Woman has posed:
    "I am certain such a thing will come about when we wish for it not to though," Diana admits as she picks up her gyro again. "It seems anytime there is peace, someone is out to destroy it as quickly as possible. My last was an alien spacecraft that then crashed to the Earth. With me aboard along with the human who had been abducted in the first place. Though," she muses. "He proved to have some magical abilities that assisted in our srurvival so I must say I am thankful for his assistance."
    She takes a moment to add more sauce to her gyro then takes another bite, chewing slowly then wiping her lips with her napkin.

Thor has posed:
    "Magic..." Thor says, letting the word to linger for a few moments as the distaste washes across his muscular features. "Magic was something I verily dislike. Likely due to a hard annoying past with my brother." The god considers himself as he finishes his plate and slowly starts to rise from the seat.

    Reaching out for the handle from his axe, Thor slings over his back and secures it to his body with a couple of straps that were dangling a moment ago. "You have been well meet Diana. You are free to intreact with me at any time you see fit. If you can find me that is." The god says with a playful wink before he starts towards the door abruptly, allowing the Amazon to finish her meal in peace.
