This shit is weird.

[st_ormbreaker]

It is. I've spent a lot of time thinking about it.

[st_rikingblueeyes]

How does your head not hurt constantly?

[st_ormbreaker]

I've been told my head is rather thick.

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Fair enough!

[st_ormbreaker]

Anyway, it's not like we have anything better to do. Speaking of, what kind of cookies do you like?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

I'm not very picky. Anything that doesn't have raisins in it I'll usually eat?

I guess I like chocolate chip a lot.

[st_ormbreaker]

I never understood the appeal of raisins, either.

I'll drop off some cookies this afternoon as a show of thanks.

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Oh, that's so sweet!

[st_ormbreaker]

I didn't promise they'd be good cookies.

[st_ormbreaker]

But yes, they'll be good cookies!

[st_ormbreaker]

Because I'm making them.

[st_rikingblueeyes]

This is true. But that's still very sweet of you.

[st_ormbreaker]

:) :) :)


I'm going to try and learn how to make gingerbread before Christmas. I used to decorate them with Jane's nieces and nephews when I was on Earth during the holidays.

Do they have Christmas where you come from?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Nope! We don't even have Christ.

[st_ormbreaker]

To be fair, we didn't have Christ on Asgard, either.

What did you have?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Holidays or deities?

[st_ormbreaker]

Both.

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Depends on where you are in the world. Mildmay's got completely different answers from me.

My part of the world, we worship a goddess we just call the Lady. She's most closely associated with the sea and mazes and the afterlife. Vax put an alcove to her in the Temple so I could pray.

Holidays... midsummer, midwinter, the arrival of Agramant the Navigator (our country's founder, according to legend), the end of the line of kings, the anniversary of the unification between Corambis and Caloxa (Caloxa's still pissed), new year (spring equinox, I don't get this whatever day in winter business)... I'm sure I'm forgetting something but that's what I got off the top of my head.

[st_ormbreaker]

What's your Lady like?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

That's... always hard to put into words. I'm still used to people just knowing.

[st_ormbreaker]

Do people usually not know?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Nobody I meet here knows her, no.

[st_ormbreaker]

Sorry, my brain doesn't appear to be working quite right this morning.

You said people worship different gods in different places, right? Do they still know the Lady and not worship her, or do they not know her at all?

[st_rikingblueeyes]

Ah. People from Ygres usually know her, but there's a lot of communication between countries there. Mildmay and Felix hadn't heard of her before. Not unless she's related to a goddess they encountered while they were traveling across Kekropia. She doesn't have a name either.
