As always, she prefers the truth no matter the form it takes. There's a chance some may not accept her, no matter what she's given or will continue to give to Asvera, but at the same time, Thor will stand ready to defend his choice. A bulwark against the many hurts that could be thrown against her, against them both, by someone trying to dissuade them from taking that step together. In her heart she knew this to be true, but hearing it helps. If they do this, they do this together, and he won't back down from that.
If they choose that. If she's sure enough of herself to take that step. If she's willing to take that risk.
With him... she is.
Slowly, she pulls herself away just enough to look him in the eye, a small but determined smile on her face. "You are where my heart belongs. I've loved you for years, and I will love you for the rest of my life. When the time is right," for him, not for her, "I would be honored to marry you and be with you as more than I am now. Your wife, your queen, and..." She inhales a small, nervous breath. "And someday, mother to our children."
Her cheeks flush, turning a dark pink, but she doesn't look away. She's serious about this, and nothing will change her mind. If she's to spend her days with someone, as the someone to another, it could only be Thor.
"There's... a lot to consider for it, and for us to speak of before we make any arrangement or declarations, but that is my truth. I love you, and with you is where I belong. If that means I spend the rest of my life working for a people who have taken me in and standing tall at your side, then that is exactly what I'll do."
