As we were all talking, I heard the elevator to my penthouse arrive on my floor. It opened up and inside was Natasha. “I'm back, girls.” She said as she walked in. “Sorry i had to take a call outside, the cell reception in this place isn't that great–” Natasha froze when she saw me and Sif. She slipped her communicator into her pocket and marched up to me with a scowl. “What the hell, Layla!? You just completely took me out of the fight back there!”
“I’m sorry, Nata–”
“And who are you to talk to Layla that way!?” Sif jumped in front of me and cut me off...
“I'm Natasha Romanoff! Layla and I are together, so you can butt out. Whoever you are…” Natasha replied to Sif.
“Well, I am also Layla’s lover! I am the Goddess Sif of Asgard!” Sif replied herself.
I watched from the side as the two women registered what each other had just said. Both of my lovers glared at each other before they turned to me.
Uh oh…
[I wish I could eat food. I’d love some popcorn right about now… Good luck Host!]
“Layla! How could you be with such a brazen woman as this that disrespects you so!?” Sif asked while pointing at Natasha.
“Excuse me!? I'm wondering why she would bother with a woman like you who speaks for her and doesnt even give her the time to respond to me!” Natasha spat back.
“I have done no such thing! Tell her, Layla!” Sif claimed indignantly.
“Well actually–” I started to speak but got cut off.
“You've already cut her off twice so far! It was rude!” Natasha said while interrupting me.
“Oh yeah? Well, I'll have you know that…”
…
I walked over towards Akeno and Asia who had taken a seat on the couch and were watching this spectacle play out. I took a seat on the couch next to the two of them as Sif and Natasha continued to throw passive aggressive jabs at each other.
“Um...Miss Layla. Shouldn't you stop them?” Asia asked while looking towards the bickering women with concern.
“Ara. I underestimated you, Aunt Layla. To think you were capable of two timing such beautiful ladies.” Akeno smirked at me.
[Technically it's four timing at this point, but who's counting?]
“Welcome to the wonderful world of having a harem. Sometimes your lovers get along great, and sometimes they don't…” I trailed off and was thankful that at least the two of them weren't physically fighting.
“LOVERS!?” Asia asked in shock with a bright red face.
“Ufufu!”
I reached into my inventory and pulled out my phone. I handed it to Akeno. “Go ahead and order a bunch of food. Let’s have a celebratory feast! Get whatever you want.” I told her. I stood back up and with a sigh, I walked back over towards Sif and Natasha. “This might take a while…” I muttered.
–An hour and a half later–
“Food’s here!” Akeno called out from the kitchen and I actually thanked my dead father for the timely intervention! These two had been bickering longer than I had thought possible! Thankfully, they both seemed to be wearing down as time went on and I could hear both of their stomachs growling at this point. I made my way towards the kitchen.
Akeno certainly didn't order frugally. I saw a whole spread of pizzas, wings, ribs, and… “Did you also order Filet Mignon, Akeno?” I asked in surprise.
“Ufufu! You bet I did!” Akeno grinned as she cut into her $200 steak. “The food at the Grigori HQ was alright, but nothing quite beats a Wagyu steak!” Akeno took another bite and moaned.
“Thank you, God, for this incredible feast before us.” Asia prayed quickly before she started digging in as well with no hesitation. “I’ve never been part of a feast before!” Her plate was piled half a foot high with all kinds of food. I’d have to remind Akeno later that Asia was still a human and could still get fat if she ate too much. I wouldn't say anything during Asia’s first feast though.
Now that both Natasha and Sif had some food in them, they had calmed down. I was very thankful for that.
“So you’re Natasha...” Sif asked as she not so subtly inspected my redheaded lover across the table.
“And you're Sif…” Natasha did the same.
“...You've got some fire in you.” Sif complemented her.
“...I could say the same about you.” Natasha replied. “I can see why Layla likes you.”
“I could say the same as well.” Sif grinned back. The two of them locked eyes with each other and came to some kind of non verbal agreement that i wasn't a part of. I let out a sigh of relief now that they were at least being cordial with each other.
“So what are we celebrating with all this food, Miss Layla?” Asia asked me in between bites. “Is today some holiday that I don’t know about?” Akeno looked inquisitive as well.
“Nothing too special,” I said with a sly grin. “I just killed the King of Gehenna today. He was a Super Level Demon.”
““EEEEEEEeeeeehhhhhh!!!!!”” Asia and Akeno exclaimed at the same time!
Natasha stopped her conversation with Sif to speak to me. “Oh right. Fury really wants to know everything about that fight. He’s especially interested in whatever that green magic was that completely repaired all the damage afterwards.”
“You can tell him to give me a call tomorrow. Tonight we're just going to celebrate!”
“Wonderful! Now where do you keep your mead, Layla?” Sif said excitedly while standing up. “I shall fetch us all a mug to make a toast!”
“Um, Sif… Mead isn’t really popular on midgard anymore. Hardly anyone actually drinks it anymore.” I replied.
Sif slumped back down and looked devastated to hear that. “TELL ME IT ISN’T SO!”
