the papers say we have skalds now to study things for us. tell one of them to come get this stupid glowing sap. sick of thinking about it. can get you more if you need.


should also study why people sleep for a week and wake up like it never happened. weird. concerning


haven't seen mustard since before the snow. guess the gods take things away when you ask. not just give







and if you knew tuuri, she's gone

i'd offer my services but y'know i kinda live with you so??
i have no idea what i could tell that you don't already know
not a bad suggestion honestly! also something i'm not sure i can help with but no harm in trying
your hate for mustard flows deeply half-pint


and i'm sorry [even though he's already said it however many times before.]

[skittering]

it's gross

❰ the mustard, obviously. the rest is either useless or sympathy he doesn't want. ❱

[channellings]

[the sympathy's kinda gross too, let's be real here—]

so stop eating it?? common sense would dictate

[skittering]

wasn't trying to

❰ he made the stupid mistake of trusting sandwiches made by other people and/or gods. ❱

[channellings]

time to start picking apart the sandwiches before eating them

[since that's obviously the appropriate thing to do.]

[skittering]

been doing that. still remember the taste

[enflame]

Im sure I could find mustard if I tried hard enough.

[skittering]

why

[enflame]

It's not as bad as you make it out to be

Theres something amusing about how obsessed you are with it.

[skittering]

not obsessed

[enflame]

You talk about how much you hate it all the time

didn't you only eat it the once ?

[skittering]

twice

didn't say anything about hating it this time. just said that it's gone

Mustard is easy to make so long as the plant is still alive.

It is in a container, is it not?

[skittering]

❰ he never thought about if it's easy or hard to make. the real question is, ❱ Why would you?

[ragnarsson]

I can never tell if you are the most pragmatic person here or merely are some weird creature in human form.

[skittering]

dunno. both maybe

[ragnarsson]

Hmmmm. Definitely a creature of some sort. Got to me. No human in any world has ever acted the way you do.

[Then again, the same could be said for Ivar.]

[skittering]

don't know anyone where i came from who does, either.

then again, don't know many people.

❰ he makes a point of it, honestly. ❱

[ragnarsson]

We're both fucked up when it comes to interacting with people. Something's wrong inside of us. Just in different ways.

[skittering]

guess so

❰ though he wishes it could've gone unsaid. if emil doesn't see this and tell him ivar's wrong, klaus definitely will - and he hates talks like that. talks where someone well-meaning tries to tell him who or what he is. ❱

i

[ give him a second here, he's working very hard not to have another meltdown like he did when onni disappeared, because he'd been mad with onni at the time and he doesn't want to wind up feeling mad at tuuri too when she doesn't deserve it. ]

would hitting me help?
or um, no not that [ they're not there anymore, and it's probably not a good idea to encourage any sort of regression in that manner. even if it's the most direct way to prompt the both of them to work through their emotions.

tuuri would be disappointed anyway. ]

sparring, i mean.

[skittering]

i'm fine

❰ he's not fine, but he's not fine in a way that he's fully impotent to change. ❱

text;

[draumstafir]

well i'm not
and i know you aren't either

[skittering]

don't tell me what i am

❰ huff huff ❱







what helps you

[draumstafir]

then stop lying about it.

[ to reynir, to himself, either way. ]

me? um. i don't think you'd
touch mostly.
