A grin like that demanded one back. "Steph, you've got excellent taste in parents," the Archangel told her in just the same kind of tone Des had. "I definitely approve. Anyone who can spot a 'Rings reference has gotta be quality folk."
Then he laughed, for no other reason than this was fun, he was enjoying the meeting, and the look on Valkyrie's face was very amusing. The fact was, of course he'd watched (and read) The Lord of the Rings. It hadn't been the premieres, like they usually did with big films (that was how they'd seen Star Wars), because Gabe had been exiled at the time. But after the wager was over they had found a midnight back-to-back ten-hour screening and sat at the back with an everlasting jumbo box of popcorn.
It was one of Gabe's favourite memories, if he was completely honest. Then again, he had a lot of those.
"What?" he asked Valkyrie with a grin. "Y'think I don't know culture when I see it? Them books were amazing, and the films were great adaptations. My Daddy and I couldn't see 'em right away, 'cos of reasons, but we went to a midnight screening of 'em all back-to-back first chance we got."
