Who: EVERYONE still in Asgard
What: The Friendly Fire mingle log!
When: Days 402-403 (Feb. 11-14)
Where: Asgard city proper.
Rating: PG-13. Anything higher than that should be taken to a private log, please!

A more in-depth explanation of the event can be found at the link above, with some examples of how powers might backfire! As Yggdrasil's core starts to rot and fester, the immortal beings that reflect her essence are feeling the effects ripple throughout them. This anomaly cripples the gods with the feeling of being wrenched out of their bodies, as though a schism is being driven through their physical being and their souls. The Travelerss tied to these souls will feel the schism manifest in their God Powers going haywire.

Day 402 (Feb 11-12)

A cacophony of screams tears through the city sometime before noon, seeming to originate from somewhere in Asgard's center. The force of the screams manifests physically, rattling through the streets like a gust of wind. The Travelers feel a brief flickering when their connections to their patron deities pauses.

When the connections are re-established just a few seconds later, there may be the unshakable feeling of something being off, even if that feeling is impossible to pinpoint. Immediately following this, all God Powers will be in a state of utter chaos; they will promptly begin to backfire - and badly - in countless and unpredictable ways.

Note: Virtually anything you can think of where their abilities work against them is free game. Powers can activate unintentionally, they can misfire and hit another person or the user themselves. It's free-game. If you aren't certain of whether or not your mishap is plausible, feel free to run it by us in the comments section below!

Also, if you would prefer your character not use their powers at all, this is also okay! But their powers will be corrupted if they are to use them, and they will still have that feeling of being wrong even if they don't.

Day 403 (Feb 13-14)

These power corruptions will continue all throughout the day until around nightfall, when Baldr will have had enough of the torment and will seek to do something about it. He can be seen seemingly floating above the castle as he stands on the invisible barrier and focuses his energy on the broken ties of magic between the gods and their Travellers.

For a solid minute, golden lines of dust that float on the air will be visible criss-crossing, tangling, and otherwise fraying all throughout the city. At the end of the minute, Baldr will give one shout of exertion and every line will abruptly pull taut; the Travellers will feel a tug at their cores, and that feeling of off will vanish. Their powers will return to regular function and Baldr will collapse for some serious R&R inside the castle. What exactly happened and how is uncertain, but as it's the second time to take place, it's about time to start worrying.

What: It's time for answers
When: Day 397
Where: Thor House 103
Rating: PG-13

( Tell the world I'm coming home )

Who: Tosh & Ianto
What: Looking for jobs!
When: Day 393
Where: Starting out in Thor, eventually moving to Odin?
Rating: PG-ish?

[Tosh has been here nearly a month now, and she figures it's time to find something with which to occupy herself; she can't spend all her time cooped up in her room, tapping away on the laptop she'd got for Christmas, or working with the equations in the book the TARDIS gave her. After talking with Ianto, she'd discovered that he felt the same way, and so they've decided to go looking for jobs together.

She isn't quite sure what she's qualified to do here; there isn't as much in the way of technology here in Asgard, and she doesn't think she wants to work in a restaurant or a shop. Of course, she's not sure how to find jobs, either. Ianto's been here longer, she figures, and he probably has a better idea of what's going on in the city, so as they set out, she glances up at him.]

Have you got any idea of where we can check for jobs? It's not like we can just google things, after all.

[Although she sorely wishes they could.]

Who: Owen, Ianto, and Tosh
What: Getting hammered
When: Soon Day of Tosh and Owen's arrival
Where: Undisclosed pub place in one of the districts
Rating:...I think we can keep it PG-13

Owen could breathe, he could feel, and he wasn't dead like he'd thought he would be. These all seemed like perfectly good reasons to get completely smashed; especially since it would be the first time he'd been able to enjoy...well anything but, specifically, anything alcoholic in a long time.

He still wasn't entirely sure what he was supposed to do here besides some bullshit involving something people were dumb enough to decide was magic, but that could all wait till he got sober again. And 'sober' wasn't a state he'd intended to see for a few hours.

So, he found the nearest bar, told Tosh and Ianto where he'd be, just in case, and decided to get to work on his BAC.
