Try Norse ale sometime. You'll never try anything else. [That's something else they have in common: Ivar's been drinking since he was a pre-teen. His constitution for alcohol is pretty high by now. He nods at Klaus' mention of family.]
You don't need to tell me. Just wait till you read the chronicle of my family I'm writing for the library. It is a very dramatic tale.
[He's been working on it for quite some time, but he's still a ways off from finishing it. He hasn't told anyone else about it just in case he gets frustrated and abandons it halfway through.]
Sure, he might seem that way. Wise and compassionate. It is one side to him, a god of exploration. But there's another name we called him back home: The Furious One, for he is also a god of war.
Pretty sure they had some ale and mead whenever everyone first arrived. Does it count if it's not the same stuff you know? [oh look, yet another thing they've got in common. good thing he doesn't have to actually think about it because he'd get a little depressed at the realization.]
You're writing a book about your family for the library. [a moment's hesitation then,] Cool. Good drama's hard to come by.
[which is meant to be encouraging. he's sincere, too. like, kudos to ivar honestly, because there's no way klaus would do it. one of the hargreeves already wrote a book and that's plenty.]
Well, uh... can't give you much advice there? [or he could, but he'd imagine it wouldn't be anything helpful.] Guess you'll never really know unless you talk to him.
