The North Knows

I am darkness; I am light. From winter, a Goddess was born; fierce and unrelenting as the howling winds. Her heart knows no bounds, touching both good and evil with overlapping confidence, for winter can be both beautiful and terrifying. [Indie RP for Skadi, Norse Goddess of Winter/Hunting. Based of mythology and headcanon.]

                ❝Your  presence comes as a surprise,                 e s p e c  i a l l y    at   this  hour,❞  the                 Allfather finally lifted his eyes from  his                 work,  not  needing  them  to  know who                 loomed in the doorway, ❝Come. Sit.❞

     "Is it so surprising that I would seek council after all these years?" the Jotun goddess asked as she retracted the bite that normally edged her words. Odin was still, among other things, her superior. "It was your son who suggested I seek you out. I will apologize for the hour; I sometimes forget such restraints."

"— I’m leaving."

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "Have you truly grown that sensitive?"

[addictiveking]

"Now now, what sort of greeting is that?"

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "An honest one. Shall I try again? Darling Loki, how wonderful it is to see you on such a beautiful day. Now, does that sound like me? If you prefer some manner of affection or admiration, I believe you know who can provide you with both. So, that clearly is not what you are after."

[maerrlygi-deactivated20151201]

"Why not?"

"Come on, it’ll be fun.” 

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "Oh, yes, that is exactly what you said the last time. That troll caused an avalanche that I had to answer for."

[sigynasynjur]

"We have battles on Nornheim, Skadi. I am not new to the concept." Sigyn said with a small smile. "Can’t I have just come to help in any capacity I can?"

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "That is not what I meant as I imagine it impossible for any creature to find war foreign." She gestured to the glistening hillside, scattered with fallen shields and spears. "I welcome aid, but neither side shows intention to win within the near future. I see not why I have been assigned to watch over this primitive scuffle."

[priestofjotunheim]

"Indeed it did…" Koli spoke, looking at her. "Who are you? And how do you know who I am?"

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "Someone who knows more than she should, I can see that." Her eyes remained glued on the landscape, as if pondering the frosted mountains was far from simple. "My name is Skadi; I was born a daughter of Jotunheim. Whispers had been passed through time of your unfair punishment."

Dark Shadows

"I hear you stranger hovering in the darkness" Loki spoke out calmly with his back turned to the room as he peered out of the window, looking over the bleak midgardian landscape.

"Come out of the shadows and reveal yourself, only the guilty and the afraid hover with such stealth" He spoke out again turning to face the dark hallway, barely lit by the crescent moon. 

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "The guilty do not always hide from what they have done." she stated, stepping into the dim light of the room, eyes shifting to the expanse of bland color hover just out of reach. "What is it about this land that has drawn you in?" The answer was clear, but even the prospect of royal dominion could never have persuaded her to remain in such a dull environment. "Are you not more alone here than even before?"

Confession: "I loved your brother." [and she's talking about Baldr - myths and all]

Slight surprise brings a brow upward, a soft hum escaping after the confession has fully registered. A small pause between hum and contemplative sound in which Thor tries to asses Skadi’s usually unreadable features. Past tense.  ’ Am I to assume you do no longer? ‘

[asgardianhammer]

         What caused hearts to favor one person over the other was one of the biggest mysteries of nature, although it was not difficult to find some reason behind something that was usually found to be very unreasonable.’ Fair of features and most gracious of us all, I cannot fault you for finding appeal in that.’ Contemplation on her remarks brings more curiosity - and admittedly more surprise - to the thunderer’s features. ’ I will argue with you about perfect matches later, in the mean time I cannot help but wonder if you have even made an attempt to transform a dream into reality. You are not so easily discouraged your grace.’

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

     "No, I am not easily discouraged, but I am also not a creature of love; you should know that by now, my friend. If you were to examine it, the truth behind this affection, I have no doubt it would appear odd. I have never been close with your brother." Any logical person knew just how difficult it could be to try and mold logic to fit love - sometimes it just would not fit. "To answer your question, I have not. Your father has suggested a union with one of the Vanir - Njord. I will accept it."

[thenorsegoddessofwinter]

    Ever since she was a child, she'd been able to mask her emotions; entire events could have passed in her life without the slightest hint of emotion from the Goddess. "Perhaps I chose my words poorly. I do not believe you simply stop loving someone, but realize the nature of the dream. I have put that behind me." Her face showed no manner of sadness, simply contempt ease, but wouldn't have too have been a ruse? "It does not matter anymore; I am hardly a match for any worthy Asgardian."

Chaotic Destruction //Open

Loki cackled, fire crawling around his hand. He was standing in the middle of the street, building on fire or already piles of rubble around him. The screams of mortals were like music to his ears as they ran from him. He wanted to close his eyes and just listen to them.

Instead, he continued to slowly walk down the street, throwing fire balls and building in cars—it made him giggle when the metal carriages decided to explode so spectacularly. Occasionally, he iced things over or caused the roots of plants to grow out of control and grab people.

He inhaled, enjoying the scent of chaos. He wanted nothing more than destruction and the realms people on their knees before him. If they decided to give him Midgard’s throne, then it would simply be a bonus, even if he had to create the throne himself.

     The dull winter wind that caught her attention was misplaced, mingled within the heat of Midguardian summer which plagued her with its very existence. Of course, it was through her own actions that she'd arrived on the sandy shores, but her visit was sure to be as short as missions would allow.      The tickle of ice, puckered with the soft screams of distant mortals pulled her back from her memories and shuttled her in the direction of the commotion. Like a scene from a narrated tale of their history, she was neither surprised nor moved by the display of utter cruelty.      With each step she took further onto the concrete river, splintered mirrors of ice rose around, spreading further in their horizontal direction. "If you chill their homes, you can force them into the streets. Even the slightest change can force their hand. Consider that my payment to watch; we both know you always enjoyed an audience."
