Friends.

I have been lax and remiss in my communications with you all, for which I sincerely apologize.

Rather than message you all individually, and then forget to answer, I thought this easier:

I am returning to Tonsburg. And as I type this, I wonder -- did I remember to even inform anyone other than my brother and his wife that I was no longer living there...

As mentioned before -- I am lacking in my missives.

I have also been lacking in my training and need to get back into this. I thoroughly encourage all potential sparring opportunities. Stormbreaker and I would be appreciative of it.

And as always, guests are welcome and encouraged. Come to my home. I have food. And coffee. And poptarts. And other things. I don't remember all that is in my cupboards. But there is plenty.

How could you not? I envied you. I was jealous. I was incredibly angry whenever you barged ahead doing things without heeding my advice. So yes, Thor. I hated you a little bit. Which is why wanted to fight you while trying to obliterate the Jotunheim. Things are different between us. That was then and this is now.

Now includes the Bifrost, which you know well we can not share construction details with mortals.

However, I did offer to let Jane take readings once it is operational? In that way, it might help her unravel the puzzle. I hardly think she can gather the same mystical components we've used to make a Midgardian version. That is a problem she will need work around, herself. She's clever, Thor. She will succeed, one day.

I shall. If I do not, I will never hear the end of it. And you will look like a rained on pup all of the time instead of your obnoxiously jovial self.

Hate is such a strong word. For there to be hate, there has to be love. I will take what you said for what it is -- a powerful emotion felt towards me that has ultimately been resolved.

I wasn't asking for information to be shared, as I recognize that is not an option at all, but I'm sure she will appreciate the readings. I need to start building her a work space, or at least altering the one we have here for her needs.

Excellent. We will drink and be merry.

It is rather strong wording, but it's often uttered with ease between siblings. I didn't think anything of it, really.

Do not doubt that I love you, brother. Even if there was an attempt, and not by my own choice, to twist it further toward hatred at one point. Things seem much better here between us than in the other universe. If only things could remain the same between me and the Valkyrie.

I could use some spells to help you with that task. If I might suggest it, there is the small shelter on the cliff by your house, that would make a suitable space for her to work from. It seems set off enough that the lights from the harbor shouldn't interfere with her star gazing.

	I also love you, brother. What is a few murder attempts between siblings? Our sister also tried to kill us. It appears to be a 'thing' our family enjoys doing. I will take your suggestion under advisement -- nay, as a truth. I shall tour it shortly and see what Jane thinks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Let me know if you require my aid.

Oh yes, it is that which we seem to enjoy. You do realize our sister is still technically alive, even if she's bound to Helheim, yes? The Goddess of Death that I haven't technically met, but have read about in the journals.

I am rather curious about her. Yet from the description, and I quote, of a "hel-bound murderous harpy that not only stole my look but did not wear it well at all" and "I hope she rots in the bowls of Helheim, forever lost in obscurity"...I'm gathering my older self wasn't too terribly welcoming either?

Surely you realize, this isn't our faults. It's Odin's.

Naturally.

You are still not very welcoming. Have you changed? Did I miss your cheerful disposition? I am saddened if I have.

This is something I have learned since living in Midgard. All our problems are directly related to that of our parents. Almost directly. Midgardians never take responsibility for what they can slough off on their ancestors. I agree with this line of thinking.

You're an ass and I'm stabbing you in the side at the first opportunity Trust me, I shall do it with the utmost good cheer.

Is the blaming of one's parents a Midgardian institution as well? Or is this a universal concept?

Mother never really did anything all that wrong. It was father who bid her to keep secrets from us. ~~It's why they never told me what I truly was until after I found out for myself.~~

	What's a little stabbing between siblings? Must be universal. When in Norway though... I have learned that inaction can be as impactful as action though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nothing, really. A mere footnote.

As for the universal blaming of at fault parental figures, I'm perfectly fine with that.

Although you do raise a point. At least mother was more apologetic when she spoke to me, and did not look at me as though I was naught more than a bitter disappointment. It is not as though one can go against a king's wishes, either.

There's no telling what lies Hela was fed that festered all those long years. Unless we go forth and ask her.

	Another reason why I bristle over the limitations of the crown. I do not wish to have Jane acquiesce to me. I enjoy the debates and how she has her own opinions. I do not wish to order her to follow me. It is always preferable to have someone want to be with you rather than be directed. Perhaps we should reach out to Hela. Eventually. Not now though.

Then you know the truth of ruling, brother, and the throne would suit you ill.

You had no qualms telling that to me once and now I am pointing it out to you. There is time before you make any final decision on that matter, so I advise you to take time and think over it all further before choosing any course of action.

I think it might not be too bad an idea eventually, or at least it would serve as an adventure for the both of us if amends can not be made. However, our Valkyrie will hate that. I know not if it is wise to tell her of such a plan, lest she follow us to Hel to stab her in the heart a few thousand times.

	To thine oneself be true. I could do with an adventure. And the Valkyrie doesn't need to know ...as long as Jane doesn't need to know .... although I fear both those situations will not be worthwhile in the end... We will need to tell our respective partners. Sad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

So sage of you.

I could as well. To tide me over, I shall seek out the young Spiderling and see what he is doing this eve. He's rather amusing. And if you start goading me about having a friend, yes, I have one. I'm not as popular as you, so shut up.

I suppose, although it would be much easier to hide where we are going or what we are doing. Is she still my respective partner if she never remembered wedding me in the first place?

	I do read. I quite enjoy the boy of spiders. He is little and fragile and yet not. A true conundrum. Have you bedded her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private to Thor the_trickster 2020-02-22 12:04 am UTC (link)
	Truly? How many pictures are in the novels you read? He's a creature of chaos. It's difficult not to enjoy his company. Even for me. WHAT SORT OF QUESTION IS THAT TO ASK? No, I've not bedded her yet. I'm hedonistic but not uncouth. She kissed me. Rather abruptly. I'm not even certain she liked it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private to Thor tordenguden 2020-02-28 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	Kissing is enjoyable. I'm sure she had some feelings. I think we are long over due for a good talk, brother. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
