"Happy birthday, love." He'd had some extra time on his hands, not to mention he'd started carving these months back. Some help with extra tools had been a blessing. Wrapped in a small bundle of velvet lay a couple hair pins, embellished with some wood burned accents at the ends, and beside that a pendant hanging on a durable chain, carved out of light walnut wood. On the pendant itself lay a pattern of runes to display vegvisir, the intention of it whispered in the craftsmanship. Not only would it be a talisman to guide Thor through his new home, but to guide him back to Logan each night. "I hope this next year brings you all you've ever dreamed and more."
[ ϟ ]—– At the cusp of night and dawn it was eventually easy to find a moment and place of solitude, the edge of the encampment at last becoming peaceful enough to allow head to clear itself from many impressions.
They were still far removed from building and establishing, yet the promise of a potential new home was already visible, the outlines of tents against the emerging morning light giving an impression of what could become permanent, one day.
Here the wind softens to a caress, barely displacing the golden-auburn locks, and there was a sliver of surprise in the god's eyes to find Logan awake, warm fondness flooding the broad chest at their now reduced proximity.
Gifts are held and regarded for a few prolonged moments, fingers tracing the outline of the vegvisir's runes whilst atoms and light sparks within thunderer's veins. Familiar and warm, the Seidr of the wood is distinctly different than anything he had ever sensed elsewhere, yet it carried the same comfort somehow, soothed something restless deep in the god's core.
' It is admirable, how much you know already... Thank you....' and thumb moves over the carved outline, a caress administered to the wood as if it were an extension of Logan's being. In a sense it was, most craftmanship was in regard to their maker.
' I hope you know I can find you blindly, wherever you are, and will always attempt to do so.'
