COMPLETED Oct 1
Who: Asgardians, invited guests who are close friends of Asgard or Mr. Mischief
What: a week of wedding feast and Asgard's new regents (last day)
When: after the wedding
Rating: Green
Note: Read ooc note under cut. Tagged characters on invite list. Ends Oct 1st

    The feast following a wedding was a feat of endurance. These were celebrations that would normally be spread out over twelve days. But, due to circumstance and having to seek special provisions from other realms, it was downsized to seven days total. The remaining five days would be left to the wedded couple to travel. Perhaps on one of those food tours...

    Having no hall large enough to accommodate, sprawling tents had been constructed on the hillside overlooking New Asgard. Each of the large tents sturdy enough to stand against sudden winds and had pipe holes for warming stoves lit within. This would help with Norway's early autumn temps (daytime high of 50 to 60 degrees, low in the 40's) and the close proximity to the Oslofjord, for feasts went from mid-day to very late at night. Inside the tents, rugs had been laid over the grass and there were several long tables lit by lanterns. The seating was courtesy of benches...for that all so important communal flare.

    Carefully chosen guests who are friends of Asgard or groom (Darcy, Bruce, Wanda and her +1, and Peter Parker) have rooms set aside for them at the town's only inn. Courtesy of Stormbreaker, these special guests could arrive and depart with great haste, to accommodate various work schedules. For Peter, he likely hit he tail end of the festivities, toward the week's end.

    During the daylight hours, lots of games were taking place. Wrestling and footraces were popular pastimes. For those very lucky few who had horses, it was also a good time to show off. There was tug of war, which was always a rowdy affair.

    During the evening, there were bards and storytellers galore. Older children went off to play the Asgardian version of a board game known as Hnefatafl. For the adults still capable of forming complete sentences, things often evolved into the drunken telling of tall (boastful) tales or singing drinking songs in semi-unison.

    Much like their ancient Midgardian counterparts, Asgardian feasts employed mountains of food and an excessive amount of drinking, so most of the adults were expected to be slightly tipsy at the very least. There were rich stews, roasted meat and vegetables, and the obligatory seafood caught by the resident fishermen. The desserts were courtesy of a family of bakers, drizzled with honey or filled with nuts and fruits from places as far away as Vanaheim and Alfheim. Someone (Loki) snuck in Poptarts and pizza, but don't tell the bakers or they might be offended! All the while, ale, mead, and wines would flow freely, powerful brews that were meant for Asgardian constitutions.

    The Golden Rule: Watch how much thou art drinking!


(OOC: Certain days will have a 'special guest star' mentioned in the subject line. Anyone is welcome to start or hop in. These characters can socialize or choose to take part in events only on those days (either during an event or during the meal after)! Asgardians (including Jane) are around all week, and can take part in any contests or socialize at any time.

You can do old fashioned threading, or an overview of what your character did so everyone knows what happened (example: Day 4). An overview of each day is provided so everyone has a prompt / knows what happened around their characters. Participation is optional but it can count for A.C. Threads will be frozen Oct 1st. )

"I am sure I can manage that for you" Pietro grinned, his faster metabolism was definitely going to be put to the test here, but one he was willing to take.

It really was a beautiful place and Pietro felt calmer than he usually did. His need to run not as great as it normally was. There was always a current running under his skin it seemed, pushing him to move. But it felt muted here which was strange but not unpleasant.

"I can fetch you more food" he told her before doing just that in a flash. He couldn't deny his protective instincts were right up now Wanda was pregnant and no doubt it would encompass the children once they were in the world. It had been a lot to take in, his return to the world had not been as simple as expected and there had been much to learn. But he had Wanda and that was really all he needed.

Wanda really wanted to enjoy the seafood, but she wasn't sure which types were safe and which weren't, the mercury levels, and that sort of thing. So she stuck with the delicious stew, holding a bowl in her hands now (thanks to Pietro) - no doubt she'd also splurge on another dessert; she loved the ones sticky with honey, that made her fingers sticky too.

Oh well. She did not really have anyone to impress - her brother was her 'plus one,' as opposed to Vision (who had disappeared months ago - and no sign of him returning, despite how much she focused her telepathy to attempt to pick up the first murmur from the mind stone that she could sense).

"Thank you," she grinned at Pietro, digging into the stew. "Do you think you will ever have a wedding like this? If you find someone who can keep up with you?"

No doubt any potential wife would be vetted by Wanda first. She was just as protective of her brother as he was of her.

Stew definitely seemed like the safer option and it was tasty too so it was what Pietro went with. He ate some of everything but tried not to do so in front of Wanda. He was not so mean. But he would make sure they both got more dessert later.

"I am not sure it would be fair to limit myself so much, you know how much girls like me. It would be mean of me to have to turn them down" he replied with a grin, honestly Pietro didn't envision himself ever being with someone but he was never going to say never. After all he had not imagined his sister being pregnant with twins so he should probably not rule anything out.
