There was no denying that her pantheon was very much oriented towards fighting. Like that was a shock. Most pantheons were, to some extent. All that honor and valor was tied with a sloppy, tattered bow of violence, and even though Idun had no part in any of that fighting, it never ceased to amaze her when she found individuals who seemed to actively go against the war-seeking stereotype. Bragi was an obvious example. The god of poetry and picnics was also a terribly peaceful individual, and it had drawn her so effectively to him as their courtship slowly developed. What nearly ruined them was violence, the killing of her brother, but that had been a terrible misunderstanding.
And now there was this goddess, who was Greek, but wasn't opposed to grinning and hugging and generally being sweet even though Idun was a stranger. Even the war-seeking types had it in them to hug with the best of them, but usually not this easily. Not this enthusiastically. It took a bit of fancy conning before she got that first hug out of Thor. He gave wonderful hugs, but he was terrible to have a snowball fight with. Idun was smiling wide when she pulled back, and that only grew wider, brightened her face just a bit more, when she saw Philotes was beaming as well. "A firework?" she said, eyebrows lifting in delighted surprise. If Philotes didn't know, that just made this ten times more exciting! "It's...it's this thing. And when you light the fuse, it starts this...spark, I guess, inside the, uh, the firework...apparatus. And then it shoots up into the sky and boomboomboom!" Rapid bursting hand gestures accompanied the exclamation, "Sky explosions! Bright and colorful and wonderful!"
Idun had nearly dropped her lantern again, when she was gesturing wildly, but she once again kept it together. Somewhat. "You can help! Oh, it will be so wonderful, and yes, the field is an open one, there isn't anything around that I saw, and I don't think there should be fire. Not if we do it right. My favorite merchant didn't warn me about fires. I almost dropped my lantern. That's probably the most serious fire threat."
She paused, then laughed cheerfully. "Theoretically, anyway. So do you want to help? Or do you just want directions? I can help you not be lost, if you need to be somewhere. But I'd love if you stayed. I think you'll love this! And then, when I give the other fireworks to my husband, I can say nothing could have possibly gone wrong, because I had a wonderful Greek goddess there with me! It will be like you kept me from trouble!"
