A meeting regarding her parent... her damned<em>'father'</em>no doubt.  Oh what a meeting that had been for Skuld; 'Hey, I'm your dad, left before you were born leaving your mother to move here from the Ivory Coast pregnant with you, forcing her to work her ass off to get you a good life in this town without a lick of help from me.  Oh, I'm a god by the way, and you're my kid, so here's a small magical trinket now go do my bidding until you<em>die</em>, which is a<em>very</em>distinct possibility now that you know why you're a six-foot-six woman who can throw a<em>motorcycle</em>at a man and has been the 'star' of any athletic team you've tried out for... ta ta!'.  She almost tore the letter up before lighting it on fire, wishing she'd been able to do the same thing to the man who made damn sure she was a bastard...<br/><br/>...almost.  She decided 'what the hell?' and was now walking down the sidewalk, garnering attention to her form for more reasons than one.  How many women her size and her build with her beauty were there anyway?  Not much is the answer.  Dressed casually in jeans, tennis shoes, and an athletic-wear top with a light jacket (lovely day, but people frowned on you walking around with a gun readily available, even if you were a detective in the NPD), the dark skinned woman walked down the surprisingly empty street with a small trail of smoke leading off of the cigar in her mouth, trailing behind her for a short time.  She was moving pretty quickly too, definitely going to arrive early, letter in pocket, despite having decided to walk instead of drive.<br/><br/>Arriving in front of the skyscraper, she didn't go in, not yet; smoking was 'frowned upon' inside most buildings, and she wasn't about to toss away half of a fine cigar to show up<em>early</em>to something she wasn't too enthusiastic about.  Resting against the side of the building more than twenty feet from the entrance, she slipped her badge onto her belt, knowing nobody would bother her about the smoking with that thing apparent, and then calmly took her time finishing off her delightful treat, glancing around, always watching her surroundings...<br/><br/>She'd be inside before the meeting took place, not to worry...
