mythopoeics

[ Thor had never woken with anything sitting on his nose, let alone a fairy. But this one perched on his nose as if nothing was amiss, and only when he woke did he realize something tickled him. Tickled him a lot. Something was giggling, and then he opened his eyes to-- Oh, jesus fuck.

Seriously?]

What the FUCK is going on?

I woke up to the smell of coffee. Now, I live alone and I've given only my parents the spare keys so I admit to feeling very startled. But when I discovered who had done it, my worries fled! There is a little creature in my home, now buzzing about and being very sweet. This is the first time I've felt properly like myself in ages! Am I alone in this?

Well, I probably am seeing those posts before mine. Ah. Anyway. We're going out for coffee and cake now. ♥ I can't waste a moment of this strange luck! If you want to join me, I'll be at [coffee shop here].

Ta for now!

[There was a brain in the fridge, to decorate it more than to eat it, Tezcatlipoca never liked to spoil his appetite with non-important things, it was why he reserved the first spot for hearts and then skin now and again. But the brain looked lovely floating in the tupperware, so he left it there. The bathtub was occupied by a resident, and acid now ate away at him.

Tezcatlipoca checked his watch. A few more hours and all traces would be gone, the stench of hydrochloric acid was so unpleasant. He'd have to air out the apartment tomorrow.]

You guys, you know what Tumblr reminded me of this morning? IT'S THORSDAY! We should celebrate, Asgardian-style, right Thor?

In other news, I got tickets to the One Direction show on December 3rd! Denver, we're totes going! Well, if we can find an adult to take us. I can't wait, it'll be faboosh! I'm gonna tell Louie I lurve him, and then he'll give me a hug and tell me I'm pretty! Yay!

That is relevant to some individuals in my pantheon. Perhaps in yours as well.

I feel very alone, however, in this world of fucking Christians. But stay the hell away from me if you insist on preaching and pushing your monotheistic religion and beliefs. Those people barged into other countries and threw out the religion of others, replaced it with their own beliefs.

I miss the old days. I miss when things felt right and when Christianity wasn't even known from where I'm from. How many of us can say this? I'm curious.

I thought you all should know that I'm enjoying my time in Babylon quite a bit. The prince is a good host and has been taking excellent care of me. I hope things are going well back home, I miss you all.

[ filter; public ]
Babylon is a really pretty place to visit, although I'm not sure I'd want to live here all the time. Though, the people I've met so far are wonderful.

[No, he didn't particularly care, however he was not stupid and so he did call a doctor to come and take a look at his nose and bruises. Fractured, not broken, but it had to be set and Tez just hissed as the doctor set it.

Oh well.]

Pan is back, mother. He wasn't happy :)

I've made a new outfit. I've been working on it for a long time, though. I just got very distracted before I could finish it. The days were distracting. And the Czar

Is the war still happening? I guess so, since Hera is not here Brother...I may have broken a vase. It jumped out and startled me. I swear. It did. It was the ugly one anyway. The one with the weird pattern.

Niflheim is more than able to crush all of you. Have fun with that. :)

I showed mother my new hat :) and then she found out the ambassador of Babylon is looking for your toy. Mother says we should make your little thing disappear sooner. I already started.

If anyone knows any information regarding the whereabouts a woman named Syrinx, please let me know immediately.  Even if they're just rumors.  Anything that leads to finding her will be monetarily rewarded.

I heard of the fire and- please let me know you're all fine.  I don't even care about the crops, just be fine.

Because the Sultan has been silent on the matter, I decided it is my duty to inform you of our region's current situation.  I understand our decision will not be a popular one, but the necessity of it was not taken lightly.  We have secured a path through Babylon along the border of Camelot for soldiers of Nilfheim and Iriy to pass through in exchange for a toll.  We have military forces guarding that path in case of incident, but we have assurance from both countries that there should not be any problems that would lead to Babylonian land or people being harmed.  Please do not be alarmed by their presence and let us all hope that this war is swift.  In the meantime, please keep to the main cities of Babylon and limit your travel through those designated areas. 

WHERE THE FUDGE IS MY COUSIN?

You guys, if you want to go to Camelot, go without me, okay? I'm not going anywhere for a while.

I'm lucky that Sayaka enjoys spending time with her grandmother.

It's very helpful, having family so close to watch her when I need to run errands. Especially when it is something this important.

Not a bad catch, self.

Hi :)

Once upon a time, there was a man who had a farm. He had many animals, but he mostly had sheep. He sold the sheep's fleece for money to keep his farm and his family going. He had two sons. Both of them loved the lambs, and played with them during the day. His wife didn't go out very much. She was very ill.

( cut for the rest of the story, but be assured, she wrote it all )

I've come to the decision that I need to learn to defend myself. I do know how to shoot but if I was in trouble and there was no gun or someone to aide me, I would be in great danger. So, that goes on the ever growing list of things I wish to accomplish.

[Private to Charon]

My cousins may very likely wipe each other out someday, and I don't want to be rotting away in this house when it happens. Dear Maker, send me a girl willing to stay longer than a week at the inn, will you? Not that those two have anything in common.

Pan, stop talking to yourself.

The girl I had in bed with me last night called me a different name in the throes of ecstasy. Should I be offended? I don't think I give two shits. I don't remember her name, anyway. Lucy? Trucy?

Fuck, why did I just spill the salt? As if I need more bad luck. I should probably look for work again soon. One not involving bosses who are incapable of doing what should be their own work.

...and one of my kids just licked a frozen pipe. What the I'll get back to this later. Mothering time.

Alive and well enough, but I hate moving and I hate this cast. How can anyone keep something this irritating on for six weeks? If it gets any more inconvenient I'm sawing it off. I was told they wanted me to stay out on leave for awhile longer at work, too. I guess that's just more time to unpack boxes.

Also more time to find the remote. Which is still missing. Why.

At least Delilah seems happy.

Assuming from what has been posted, welcome back from the dead, friend.

I think this is an appropriate time to inform you that you were delicious.

It's been a long time since I've witnessed that much bloodshed.

But it wasn't the right way.

Not like that.

I've studied them. I understand the Romans well enough from a textbook perspective. But that doesn't mean I like them, nor would I want to go back there any time soon.

And this whole thing... I don't like this.

Is this really about a goddess?

[Splurging on things that were considered important was never a problem for Tezcatlipoca. Personally, he thought the whole thing was priceless, so a few more gold coins here- there, were inconsequential.

It was not as fresh as he'd hope, he always liked it best when they were still warm and alive. Just after that moment where they had ceased to live. This was Set's however, and so he could overlook a few things. It was heavy and thick, the blood had not quite finish drying. It was good. His toes curled in pleasure as he sunk his teeth, tearing apart the flesh.

Tezcatlipoca sincerely hoped to have an opportunity in future to tell Set how perfect he'd tasted.]

This thought came to me; putting three gladiators in at the same time, it is almost like a first hand example of early Darwinism.

Do you think anyone thought about that?

Anyway, mankind should thank your contribution to the social experiment. Not that anyone is likely to learn anything.

I can't...I've never..I mean there was that one time but...

This is unexpected and bad. Very bad.

This? Again?

Dammit, I just want my iPhone. And I'm being told that I'm a gladiator. That's just peachy. Fuck it. Someone is going to bleed for this and they're not going to get an apology.

[Phonecall to Set]

[Never let it be said that Tezcatlipoca didn't know how to play his part well. Perfectly normal, mirroring amusement that he was incapable of feeling (or if felt, he didn't feel like it like others did- like one should). His iphone had the most ridiculous picture he'd manage to take of Set. Well. Why not.

He let it ring and waited patiently.]

[There was a very good reason why she had been quiet until now. Perfect!Set had received her laptop to the skull for being so frighteningly good to her before she ran out of the apartment for work. When she had gotten home, the mess had been tidied up for her to deal with later.

It was only that afternoon she purchased another laptop and then hid in her closet from her flawless family to type up something for the community.]

I suddenly appreciate almost all of you for who you are.
