Ooc: you said that, if Heimdall was human, Athena would stop 'stroking' him.
Athena looked over at him. "Oh, Heimdall. i just got an idea." She said. "If you're still stuck with indecision, I could try a spell to make you talk in that form for several hours at a time."
Athena took out the Sword in dagger form and muttered over it. It glowed, and so did Heimdall. suddenly, the change was made, and Heimdall could speak. Athena put the Sword away. "Better?" She asked.
Athena shrugged. "I doubt they'd throw a rock at the window. They'd more barge through the door." She said. "I can't believe i didn't think of this earlier for you."
"I'm glad you did. I can stay quiet if they come back, which they will once I send people round to force them to leave the farmhouse. I'm not looking forward to that bit."
She pet him absent-mindedly. "It has to." She said, thinking more of her spell and securing the shadow situation than what Heimdall was most likely thinking.
