[ out in the Unseelie courtyard, surrounded by inky black thorn bushes (how appropriate,) Loki sits on the ground, rustling through the plants as delicately as possible. he seems amused enough, a small bundle of the plants already gathered in a cloth in his lap. ]

Atropa belladonna. Once known to be an effective anesthetic and even as a beauty aid, but now more commonly used as a deadly poison, able to render even the most mighty of warriors powerless. A useless, hallucinating, drooling pile on the ground.

Oft considered one of the primary tools of the witch. [ he laughs a little to himself. ] How fitting.



Tell me about yourselves, my new friends. Your worlds, your myths, your folklore. Your legends and your mysteries. I will share my own, in return.

Where I come from, there are nine known, documented realms. Nine worlds. The realms of the gods, the giants, the dying, and the dead among them. I have seen most all of them myself, and I must say, they hardly compare to the remarkable land I find myself in now. Very quaint.

I am sure there are others among you who agree, no? I can't be the only one who feels so very at home here.

permatext for now

[she still isn't comfortable showing her face to this thing, speaking to it was pretty much her limit for now.]

How would you define yourself?

and permavideo on this side

[liugan]

Simply as myself. Why bother trying to fit into a specific label or class?

[erythristic]

Everyone fits in one class or another.

[liugan]

My own class, then. If I simply must.

[erythristic]

A man that cultivates mystery. I rather like that.

[liugan]

I find it more enjoyable that way. Rather than having every detail out in the open for others to pick and pry at.

[erythristic]

So you've got something to hide.

[liugan]

Whyever would you think that?

[erythristic]

Artificial mystery is most easily cultivated in a degree of truth. I simply assumed you would fall in the same pattern.

[liugan]

You certainly assumed wrong then, didn't you?

[erythristic]

Mea culpa, my dear stranger.

[liugan]

At least you learned quickly enough.

[erythristic]

One must always be willing to adapt, lest they become trapped in a tragedy born from ignorance.

[liugan]

Lesson learned from personal experience?

[erythristic]

From years of observation.

[liugan]

A fan of the sidelines, are we?

[erythristic]

I prefer to take centre stage, but more often than not circumstances force inaction.

[liugan]

What a pity.
