The ghosts are taking a more violent turn. If any of you do not feel safe in your own homes, or on this station all are welcome to bed down in the Bad Things. There are cots and sleeping bags and plenty of food and drink.

The walls and doors are warded, and lined with iron, the threshold bathed in salt. Only the strongest can get through, and even if they do it will knock down their power and energy. But lets hope there are none that strong on board.

If there are any non humans that would like to seek refuge feel free to private message me and I will make sure none of the warding will keep you out.

[Loki]

If you wish to bring your family, and would like to come and slum it for a bit, I will be able to get you across the threshold without any power loss. I will even throw in my bedroom so that it will seem a little less like you are slumming it.

I should say, that I have never flown anywhere, I've always gone by ship, over the ocean. And space flight on Midgard is rudimentary at best, and I'm somewhat fond of the groundish area?

Yes my lord Loki. You would do what all men do even the most sly.

Oh, then I don't suppose I should mention possession of a weaker willed or willing vessel could help, and a god of your statue could practically have his pick... Is it because I'm a woman?

I... I am not a snitch, so you know, but your woman has been coming in more frequently, not staying, but I send her home with a bottle of my top shelf. I only say this because it's concerning.

Ah, I must have mistaken you for a greater adventurer than you are.

I am well-aware of that ability. Tell me would you count yourself among the willing?

And yet here you act like one.

I am a great adventurer, I just don't like the idea at the thought of being stuck in a tin can at the mercy of whoever can fly said tin can.

If you wanted to use me, yes I would. And I'd be honored to do so. I've never heard of a vampire being possessed before though. I suppose you know that it takes a lot of energy to do it even with someone willing, so someone who did some spectorial 'weight lifting' before might not be able to?

Only because mortals have organs that can be damaged, and that booze is strong enough to get both me and Thor well and truly drunk.

Not even if Thor or myself were the pilot?

It is a lot easier when you know how to work with minds.

She is more than just a mere mortal.

If that were the case I might agree to be passed out drunk to make the trip.

Then I would only ask you not to lurk in my memories. Twelve hundred years is a long time on Midgard.

I know.

Passed out drunk is the best way to enjoy the views of the galaxy.

You have my word.

What is it that you know?

While I am sure you're being sarcastic, I wholeheartedly agree anyway. There are no windows in my apartment for two reasons. Though I do wonder what it would be like on Nandi's more interesting pipe fillers.

Thank you. There are some I wouldn't wish on my most hated avisary, and I like you, so I definitely don't want you to experience them.

She's Kat's Mother. And Kat is no ordinary mortal even if you don't count the Frost Giant half of her. Also I know you and she are lovers, because the scent of bodily fluid stays for a while, and being a creature that thrives off of it I would know that smell anywhere, I just didn't know you were until we met and you took on flesh. I think that's all I know. It's all I can think of anyhow.

How thoughtful of you. My weak mind would crumble beneath them.

I was unaware that you were that kind of vampire.

It's the loss of my children. Biological, and adopted. Especially the ones that were Christian, because I will never see them again. Everything else is background noise. It would not crumble your mind but I do not think you would be the same if you witnessed what I did, felt the way I did.

All bodily fluids have some nutritional value.

My poor soul could not take it. My life has been too sheltered. Loss is a stranger to me.

Mock me if you like, it is still not something I would share. Or wish upon anyone.

And you need not share it. But do not tell me what I can and cannot handle. It is not the first time I experienced the loss of a child.

I did not say you could not handle it. It is, and was, simply a pain I would not wish upon you. And I am sorry that you had to.

I've been stabbed in various places, run through, shot, had to stitch on a limb, and nothing I've experienced compares. It doesn't get easier with time, it doesn't soften with each life lost, or their age, of my flesh or not.

These are no memories I would seek out if you believe that is what I would do. I know my way through the paths of a mind.

I don't know how that sort of stuff works, the only mind play I do is glamoring and I don't do much of that anymore. I just... I guess I didn't want you to happen upon them?

What does it say about me that I'd willingly put myself through that again, for your brother? Before we had even been out on a date.

I see. You had little faith of my abilities.

That you consider having a child for a wrong reason. You should not have a child for your spouse's sake.

No, I just didn't know the depths of those sort of abilities. And I didn't want you to be in there and the scent of pine to bring an onslaught of memories of my son Floki to assault you.

No it's not only that, the thought of some other woman doing it made me jealous. And I don't do jealousy.

I can surpress that memory for you.

Another questionable reason.

I wouldn't want that. He was the last biological child I was able to have.

It is not and cannot be something done on the whim... In spite of my jealousy it is something I will wait for.

I wouldn't want to forget any of them, and I loved them all. But I lost my mortal life when Floki was young. Only six. And he is the only one of my children that got revenge for me and his father.

Would you say knowing what you know that I am still a good fit?

Of course.

Still? My time now is over. My own child demands my attention. Take care, Shieldmaiden.
