on teal deering in memes

[yearly]

You have an extremely bad habit of setting up painfully elaborate 'AU' scenes in those.. memes of yours. Aren't you a little worried you scare people off that way?

Even so, I suppose you do have a point. Were Odin so inclined to ask, I suppose I wouldn't mind containing Loki without elaborate systems involving chains and snake-venom.

And I thought my descendants could be nasty.

Comments

ahaha, had to -- even if I play two greek muses

[signedlefthanded]

I'm not even going to ask.

I will take them all B)

[yearly]

I wonder what it might be that would need such careful not-asking.

:3

[signedlefthanded]

Your resemblance. While my brother would know of the names you speak, you act like you know them... personally.

Not that I can really talk, in the game I'm in I'm close friends with the son of Poseidon.

[yearly]

Well, that's because I do. Though admittedly, the Odin I know best isn't the one who tends to show up here.

[ a pause, rocking back slightly on his heels, hands tucked in his back pockets. ]

Poseidon is one of my.. great.. great-grandchildren, I think? I lose track of them all.

[She tilts her head.] Then you're definitely not Klaus Baudelaire.

Well, it's his son.

[yearly]

No, I'm Chronos. And I'm aware, as you mentioned, but I don't know his son. To be perfectly honest, I tend to avoid the Olympians. Too much nonsense and drama.

[signedlefthanded]

So I've learned. It might be better for you that way. But I think drama is just a part of life.

I'm Violet, by the way. [A curtsy.] Violet Baudelaire.

[yearly]

I prefer mortal drama. I like living as a human.

.. It's nice to meet you. You said you're a friend of my grandson? How did you meet, precisely?

[signedlefthanded]

I wouldn't know anything else, to be honest.

I was kidnapped to a magic castle. He's helped me adjust there.

aaaand have Eirene

You think it safe to meddle in the affairs of other pantheons?

[yearly]

You seem to be under the impression that I'd be in some sort of danger.

[horae]

Who says I'm talking about physical violence or am referring to you being sole bearer of your consequences?

[yearly]

I should think I'd know better than anyone else, since I've watched existence spin itself out. If it eases your mind, though, I believe I was rather pointed to mention that I'd only interfere if asked by Odin. After all, it's the least one might do for an old friend.

[skytraveler]

And hypothetically, just how would you do that? Because, speaking from experience, snakes hurt like a bitch. You're going to need to step up your game if you want to do something along the lines of poison and entrails.

[yearly]

Ah, right, the entrails of your son. I'd forgotten about that bit.

I'm not really into torment and torture. Too old for that nonsense, and in my experience, it tends to backfire on people. If Odin wants me to assist in the case of other-you, he'll simply have to accept that I'll only be freezing time around him.

[skytraveler]

How would that work? I've never frozen time before or been frozen in time.

[yearly]

Other-Loki would be unseeing, unknowing, unaware. I prefer to freeze all time when I choose to freeze it at all. Besides, it's an even worse torment, in some ways, to allow the mind to continue on with no distraction, no relief, no respite. .. And as we've established, it takes considerably more than naughtiness for me to turn to that sort of thing.

[ he scratches absently at an iron man band-aid on the back of his hand. ] .. Anyway, I'm a teenager right now, and I'm fairly certain that Liam would say it's bad for my development or something.

[skytraveler]

...

Liam's right, it's quite bad for your development. Don't do it. I hated the snakes enough as is, freezing in time just sounds like overkill.

[yearly]

You needn't be worried. Like I said, he'd be unaware.

.. I'm sort of hoping I'm not asked, though. I hate having to shake off my imitation mortality. It tends to terrify people when they're forced to remember that I'm Time.
