WHAT || Shenanigans.
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres Isle, etc!
WHEN || November & December [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam
[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of November and December.
You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[He holds up one hand, drawing it lengthwise across his face.]
When he was in battle, another person caught him across the mouth and he survived.

[but a lot of it was few and far between and rather uncontrollable.]
Most of it was held by the gods.

I wasn't in Faerun, though. My gods were of the traditional Greek-Norse-Aztec variety. And they ... pretty much sucked. I spent a lot of my time there cleaning up their messes.
no subject
[ Said to the tune of "I don't know what you expected." Girl's well-read, ok, she knows what fuck-ups Zeus and Odin are. ]
Although, I thought in the case of the Norse, they generally had Loki clean up their messes for them? The Aztecs mostly just tried human sacrifice and hoped for the best.

Loki was the worst of them. He kidnapped a handful of sixteen year-old kids from their old universe to facilitate his own escape plan into our world, all the while promising it to the new threat to the gods. Meanwhile, on other hand, the rest of the pantheons spent their time arguing about who's fault it was that it was happening in the first place instead of working together and mobilizing to stop it.
Between the sniveling cowards and egos too big to actually see the big picture, it's no wonder they were going extinct.
[Never mind the inbreeding, the lack of technology, the way they were just letting people waste away and drown in their barbaric lifestyles for no other reason than they felt that advancement would lose them their new paradise just as it did the Old World.]

no subject
[He pauses because this was the part that was hard to explain.]
One of us was something called a gateway witch. She had the power to open portals between worlds. Loki needed her to open a portal for him to escape through, so he sent his son, Fenrir to get her. He borrowed magic from someone more powerful than him to do it, but since the process wasn't a clean one, she was able to draw people there with her and give herself ... a distraction.
She slipped away while Loki was figuring out what to do with us.
no subject
[ No wonder Loki wanted her. Any suggestion of the possibility for inter-planar travel, at least away from a magic-less world to one with magic, is nigh unheard of. Here, it's the kind of thing people kill for, go to war for. ]
Is she safe? Is she here?
no subject
[It's stated bluntly and too the point, because he doesn't like lingering on memories of her any longer than he has to.]
She was just as much of a threat and a megalomaniac as they are. In the Old World, where there's no magic, she barely had any power or influence. Once she got to Everworld again, she was nearly a god in her own right and she thought that she had what it took to challenge them. She used her abilities to bring in people with machine guns and just ... mowed through peaceful settlements of people without a second thought.
[She manipulated their minds, their hearts - he remembers those parts of Senna clearly, even if he doesn't remember her name.]
One of us couldn't stand by and let her hurt innocent people, whether it was our world or not. So she killed her.
no subject
But you said "a gateway witch." Not "the." Are there others like her? David, if there are people who could move between planes, they might have a way to get us back to our own worlds. Back through the Veil. If you know something about how she did it—
no subject
[After all, she sold out her own child to keep herself safe.]
And I'm pretty sure their magic only works between Everworld and the Old World - they're part of the magic that created it.
[It's not entirely a lie, because it's a reasonable guess - if their magic only really worked super effectively in Everworld, it means it's tied to that realm more than anything else.]
Add to the fact they wouldn't do it out of the goodness of their hearts. You'd have to pay a pretty hefty price.
[David's price was his agency and he didn't even really ask for that particular adventure.]
no subject
[ Which isn't to say Lydia is joining Stiles' "we can learn magic!!!" train but. It would be worth studying. ]
Is there anything written here on Everworld, or are you the only one from there that you know of?
no subject
[Not that he would know the people important to him - or actually be able to identify Senna. He remembers the witch and everything that she did, but any actual identifying information has been scrubbed away.
Thanks a lot, Veil.]
no subject
[ She seems genuinely discouraged, and she takes it out with a punch at the bag (atk 20 total, dmg 3). ]
no subject
Not bad.

no subject
How about we do one more set and break for the day?
no subject
[ Which is the sassy agreement he gets as she starts going at it again. ]
