[She smiles sheepishly, scratching the back of her head]
I mean, at least you have a better idea of how to handle these guys than anyone else here. I wouldn't mind having a power like that right now, to be honest.
Oh, all I can do is tell you what some of their past pantheons were like, and the legends and sources of their worship.
It's...not nearly as exciting as I make it out to be. Borderline useless. However, if someone like you is ever in need... I would always be willing to lend a hand.
[She breathes out, letting out some of the tension that she's built up over this conversation]
Hey, I'll take what help I can get. Seriously, Doctor, thank you - I appreciate it. Really, I do. And if there's anything I can do to make it up to you, just let me know, okay?
[ He paused, and held out a hand. ] Would you like my number? Just in case? I think -- you likely have more experience with Woden than I do, but if you ever need the help, I would love to offer it.
[He's taking a while to put his number in, but... well, he's kinda old, isn't he? Doctor Blake wouldn't be the first old guy she's seen take his time with phones or computers, and she takes her phone back and shoves it back in her pocket without a second thought]
Hey, will do. I should probably get going now, though. Have a good day, okay, Doctor?

Even here, my position is far...diminished compared to the rest of you. Perfect mythological recall is hardly... a good power.

Date: 2018-08-02 06:10 am (UTC)[Don't mind her, she just needs a second to fish for her phone. As soon as she digs it out of her pocket she hands it over]
Here you go - and again, thanks. If nothing else, it's always nice knowing that you have somebody you can depend on.

But he left her a gift behind, for later, as well. Not that she would see it, until it's too late. ]
Here you go, and please, call me anytime. I'm happy to assist.
