Brand spanking new, yet so very very ancient

[allmothering]

I have seen many versions of my sons in this place, and even once have I seen my husband.

Yet I have never seen myself, in any iteration. What sort of strange realm is this?

Hello, Mother.

One of strange magics foreign to Asgard.

[allmothering]

Is it safe, this place of strange magics?

[chilled]

Safe enough. Regardless, no harm shall come to you in my presence.

[ex_flyting687]

I doubt any answer to that question would ever suffice.

My Queen - it's been some time.

[allmothering]

Has it been so long that you must be formal? You are still my son, and I your mother.

[ex_flyting687]

It's been long enough, since the fall. [And I miss you more than I thought I should allow, but that is neither here nor there, now.]

You are well?

[dusk_and_dawn]

Quality, not quantity, Allmother.

'Tis a place betwixt realms with shades of each.

[allmothering]

So it seems, for I know you not and yet you are familiar to me somehow, like a shape formed in a passing cloud.

[dusk_and_dawn]

I am your son. Balder.

I have met brothers who knew me not, but I was not expecting this. Perhaps I am not yet born? [He is kind of important, Ragnarok-wise.]

[odinsons]

Is that something you wish for, Mother? I cannot believe it to be all that settling to see another of yourself.

[allmothering]

I am merely curious as to why some denizens of Asgard seem to be so numerous while others are near totally forgotten.

[sorcerous]

A world in which hatred and manipulation thrive enough to chill the bone, and love and motherhood is scarce as it is sweet.

[allmothering]

All the more reason for me to be here, if it is as horrid as you say.

[anomaliiiiies]

[oh my goodness, she is Thor's mother? Oh dear. Meeting the parent(s).]

I've seen many of them, ma'am, but this is the first time I've seen you here.

[allmothering]

[ A Midgardian? How curious. Frigga had heard this place was a mixing of the realms, but so far this is the first non-family member she's seen. ]

And you are, my child?

[liugan]

There will only ever be one Allmother.

[allmothering]

More flattery. Do you coat your silver tongue in honey, my child?

[mektige]

This strange realm welcomes you, Queen Mother.

[allmothering]

Thank you, my boy. Have you been here long?

a-all the Lokis, all the time ;;;

[allfatherissues]

Your rarity only means that your presence is met with an exuberant welcome.

Of a sort, at least.

hooray for matching usernames

[allmothering]

Of a sort? What do you mean by that?

[inquisitive_nature]

Honor to you, Lady Frigga. I see the gods of Valhalla have come in number to this realm.

[allmothering]

And I see that we are not yet forgotten by the other realms. I thank you for your honor, kind sir...?

<3 <3 <3 !!!

Hello Mother... [ He smiles brightly. ] It appears to be a realm of games that mortals play... My Lady, failed when she saw you and had to decide which version of me to 'tag' you with. Between myself the Teenager and the 7 year old... I much like her and very pleased to see you.

Ah I also see you have met my Jane. [ A fond smile takes over his face. ]

[allmothering]

Oh my, the games these mortals play. A teen and a child, you say? How nostalgic that would have been be to see.

Yes, I have met Jane. She is a very bright girl.
