Meg glanced at her, eyes widening again.
"Oh- I didn't even see the sword-" she blurted.

Now was Sif truly baffled, but she quickly hid it. The sooner they moved from this grim topic, the better anyway.
"May you never see it again, except from well behind me, if I am defending you," she said with a laugh.
This might also have been grim, in suggesting it would be necessary, but Sif did not think so far ahead as that.

"If you meant... Loki... when you said 'the snake'," Meg said slowly, "I've already... handled him... myself."
She smiled a little, tipping her chin up just the tiniest bit. It sounded like a good something to say to a woman who apparently viewed him as a threat, and Meg couldn't help but suddenly feel a few ripples of pride fluttering in her chest.

Sif's eyebrows went up, obviously impressed. Sif did show emotion on her face with startling regularity, despite her reputation as somewhat martial.
"How have you done this?"

Meg hesitated. Back in the dormitories she would have smiled and said "Blackmail" in her sweetest voice, but she wasn't sure how that would come off to the woman in front of her.
"...I had leverage," she said carefully.

Sif took a step back, looking the girl over appraisingly.
"Blackmail?" she surmised, grinning up at her. "I would not have guessed. You are sharp, for one so defenceless."

"I'm not defenseless-" Meg protested.

"You are a heavily pregnant mortal child," Sif observed.

"...well, yes," Meg admitted, cheeks flushing as her pride faltered. "But you needn't worry for me, truly."
She was silent for a moment before blurting "I'm Meg, Meg Giry-"

"Lady Sif," she said, and added, "still."

"Oh- oh, yes, right," Meg said, flustered and curtsying again on instinct. "Are there- er- more of you here now?"

"We have come to see Thor. We didn't expect to find... Loki."
The way she said it made it clear that there was more than personal dislike at stake now.
"I've come with three others. The Warriors Three, they're called."

"I really don't think he'll cause any trouble," said Meg, feeling as though she had to trot to keep up with her. She was beginning to feel a little pride-bruised, but didn't dare admit it- she'd preemptively handled the whole situation, couldn't Lady Sif just trust her?

"He'd better not," said Sif in a low voice, bordering on a growl. She sat herself down gingerly on the staircase, its every creak concerning her. "What has he told you of his past with us?"

"Mmm, nothing really," Meg said with a shrug. "I learned most of it from M. Veidt- he's Mlle. Elness- the lady whose house this is, I mean- Mlle. Elness works for him. He's..."
She gestured at her belly.
"I mean to say, he is the grandfather."
She averted her eyes.
"He told me very much about Loki. But I am not afraid, truly."
