EVENT LOG: GOOD GOD, Y'ALL

Who: EVERYONE
What: the Good God, Y'all mingle log.
When: Days 461-462 ( June 9-12 )
Where: the castle courtyard
Rating: PG-13. Anything higher than that should be taken to a private log, please!

Day 461 ( June 9/10 )
When the Travellers wake up, they will find a message sent to every bracelet in the city:
As per the agreement between the gods and their Travellers, all persons within Asgard are humbly requested at the castle courtyard for enlistment in the Holy City's war efforts. Every individual is invited to find their resolve and seek out their purpose; this is the final stand in Ragnarok, and your help is needed now more than ever.

Enlistment is mandatory! Please see your local officials for more information.
A friendly if not a touch formal invitation to what will essentially be Asgard's job fair! A mandatory job fair. This is why we can't have nice things.

The castle courtyard and the streets leading into it will be crowded with bustling natives and several booths, not uncommon in appearance to the many festivals they've had over the last two years. This time, however, there is no music or celebration to be had. Everyone is hard at work organising their efforts for the war and doing their level best to assist in the transition.

Day 462 ( June 11/12 )
The fair will continue for two days, to give everyone time to get down there and make their decisions. Anyone that hasn't signed up by the end of this day will be visited at home by a city rep and a few guards that will politely ask them to register for a group and weaponry if they plan to carry it. Refusal will land them in jail for the day, where they will still be politely asked to please, seriously, just pick something. Anything. Uncle Odin wants you.

At the end of the fair, there will be food and drinks to thank the Travellers for their support and cooperation. Throughout the entirety of the event and for the rest of their stay, the natives will be more reverent and grateful than ever than the Travellers have chosen to stay and fight at their side. They will do anything they can to help them win this war; this evening will be one of camaraderie and appreciation for the past, present, and future sacrifices to save the World Tree.

[ a slow sad smile ]

That has always been the best reason to fight, and yet I might wish otherwise. [ but that is all he says on the subject, for she is of age, and she is good enough to go, if she wishes it ]
digophelia: (Echoes of the steps of giants)

[ She's surprised that he does not protest her involvement further and her explicit desire to follow him there, alongside others. Alice's hands are still balled up into fists on the table, tight enough to where the white of her knuckles show. He's not worried? Alice isn't sure whether to be flattered or begin to wonder about Maglor's mind. ]

Believe me, it displeases me as much as it does you.

[ She glances around and then lays her eyes on him. ]

You'll have to meet Hatter. I must say, it is a little strange to see a variation of him swear he'll fight with me rather than wishing for my death.
bythewaves: (despair)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-17 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ A sad smile and he curls that lock of hair around his finger again before letting her go ]

If there was any alternative, Alice, I would take it. But you are of age, and I have taught you as much as I can - I must trust now that it is enough.

[ he tips his head at her curiously ] Oh? And why has he changed his mind, gwilwileth?
digophelia: (She had special powers)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-17 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Because it is much like me and the little one.

[ Asgard should consider itself lucky that none of the natives of her Wonderland are present. ]

He is still the Hatter I know, but at the same time, not quite. I knew him since I was young.
bythewaves: (hm?)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-17 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. An older, darker version hm? And this is the one from when you were young?
digophelia: (I fear for a while - my head)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-17 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Alice finds herself staring out hollowly over his shoulder, across the room. The question unintentionally hits a sore spot. He wouldn't know, she had done what she could to keep Bumby's manipulation out. ]

He is how I remember him, which makes it all the more important to make sure Hatter is safe, along with you. A little eccentric, but still very kind.
bythewaves: (look down)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-17 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Then I will see to his guarding as well, if I can.

[ The promise is easy to make - if Alice wishes it, then he will do what he can ] You cannot talk him out of it either, hm?
digophelia: (these are the interfering themes)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-18 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
No. As eccentric as Hatter is, once he sets his mind on something, he is very much dedicated to it.

[ Alice is still omitting many details from this. Hatter's dedication is pure insanity, but thankfully nowhere near to the level of torturing all of his inhabitants and former friends. No more drowning in tea, thank god. Sheepishly, Alice adds while rubbing the back of her head. ]

This Hatter... his loyalty surprises me. He's even gentler than I remember him.
bythewaves: (childhood peace)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-18 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
I am not entirely surprised, gwilwileth - I think me you are still very gentle - tis only that you have hardened to deal with the pain that life brings. Is it so surprising that the hearts you draw to yourself are equally kind?
digophelia: (Teach you how to swim)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-18 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ The fact he calls her that has Alice reflecting compared to how she was so long ago. She's grown in Asgard, she's opened up to others. And yet, there's something sad about how Hatter is, because he is what Alice was once was.

But more importantly, Alice seems to be a little flustered at the moment more than inwardly grieving for what it's lost. She lets out a soft huff. She doesn't like being called "gentle" for how deep her self-deprecation goes. ]
bythewaves: (hm?)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-18 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ a soft, fond smile for her and he looks up as his name is called ]

It seems I am called for again - will you be well, yenya?
digophelia: (that when there is nothing left in this)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-18 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be fine.

[ After all, she has no choice to be, no matter how much she dreads doing what she is about to do. ]
bythewaves: (unexpected fondness)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-18 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ he reaches across to tug fondly on a strand of hair, the only intimacy he allows himself knowing her dislike for touch ]

If you need me, Alice, you know where to find me.
digophelia: (i wander over where you can't see)

[personal profile] digophelia 2014-06-18 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
I know.

[ She won't leave quite yet, she's not sure what to do now other than she knows she'd rather not be alone with her thoughts. Alice is trying her best to avoid hallucinations right now. ]
bythewaves: (shall I play something)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2014-06-18 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ He smiles at her and goes up to sing, and if he chooses the tale of Earendil (Hope From Despair) tonight, well, it was probably not just for Alice's sake - but the use of Influence to cast the illusions for all to see almost certainly was ]
