The Sands of the Divine

The sands of time ebb and flow and topple over mortals erasing them from existence. Yet it is not just man who fears the sea of sand for even gods are lost in the sands of time until the sands run out and the hourglass is flipped marking a new era. |Dependent Egypt Rp blog|

The True Legion Headache -Alfred

@in-brightest-day

A loud sigh escaped his lips as he looked out the window, shivering at the very sight before idly reaching out for the open bottle of pain killers. His hand bumps it and it goes tumbling to the floor, pills going everywhere as he flinched. Good job Rams good job, he closed his eyes breathing out through his nose trying to silence the now laughing god in his head. 

“Please be quiet….”

[in-brightest-day-blog1]

Of course, once begged, you will receive the exact opposite. And that’s exactly what Ram got as an all too familiar red, white, and blue hero smacked into the window frame. He froze there, a bit like a bug, before slowly sliding off.

[vesselofthegods-blog]

He shrieked, jumping back from the window hands to his chest. He was silent, heart pounding as he watched the man slide off the window flinching as he heard the thud of the man hitting the ground. He stood there, before just snapping out of it and grabbing a blanket, wrapping it around him before hurrying outside to poke and prod the man.

“H-Hey, you ok?”

He’s never seen so many odd flowers and plants. To be fair he didn’t mean to start touching flower petals gently, normally he was more cautious. But curiosity got the best of him . All the colours and scents….. he nearly screamed when he heard a voice hiss in his head, that of Bast alerting him of someone’s presence.

“A-ahhhh I’m so sorry I- Are these yours?”

[lademoiselledesfleurs-blog]

Being the person that she was, and the in the profession she was in, it was no surprise for flowers and plants to surround her. She loved her profession and her powers, and she certainly didn’t mind the company. Flowers could only provide so much company and conversation. She looked at the young man and smiled.

“Please don’t apologize. You’ve done nothing wrong.” She said, gently touching a nearby flower. “Yes. They came with me when I left for home. They’re beautiful.”

Ramesses never thought to go to the flowers for company or conversation, not like he was ever in search of ‘company’ with all the gods talking and arguing in his head. Even now Bast was arguing with Set who was laughing proud of provoking her. 

He nervously fiddled with his hands looking at the flowers before gently touching the hourglass around his neck. “That must have been a lot of paper work taking flowers from home. I mean it took a lot just to bring my pets here.”

Uhh I mean, I came from Egypt, there’s kind of sand everywhere. It gets everywhere. In your hair your shoes between your toes….In your eyes your mouths and I am just…..rambling aren’t I. So sorry…..

Oh that… [silence] explains a lot. [Beat] Yeah, you’re kinda rambling. I’m from Ukraine, so I have almost no experience with sand other than a few trips to the beach. It was pretty messy though. [Shifts weight]

So if you’re living here, does that mean you have powers? Unless being able to stand sand getting everywhere is a power.

[vesselofthegods-blog]

[siiiiiiiiilllllllllllleeeeeeennnnncccceeee]

....

Well I mean, sand can be messy. It got everywhere I guess we stopped bothering to clean things off all the time.

Putting up with sand is a pretty good power, I suppose, a nice character trait? If we were characters... I mean it is a lot better than just getting possessed by old ancient gods, I like it a lot more. A lot more than being a walking meat suit for them-

How is Ukraine. [TOPIC CHANGE] [this is so awkward his ears are turning red] [he’s going to have to move after this]

He stood there looking up at the tree searching for the small eyes of his cat before giving her a worried look. “I-I am sorry I just. I don’t know how to climb a tree. I don’t know how to climb much more than a dune to be honest and it’s getting too cold for her without her sweater….” he holds up a small little hand knitted sweater worried as can be as a tiny little mewl echoes at the top of the tree, small kitten shivering and clinging to the branch.

“It’s fine!” Laima smiles, trying to be reassuring for the other. “It won’t be hard, let me just.” She scrapes her hands against the tree bark, her nails lengthening into claws. A small groan, and she hefts herself into the tree, beginning to climb. “I’ll be back in a jiffy!” Really, it’s soon enough before she’s up and slowly retrieving the cat, cooing to try and soothe the little beast as she scoops her up.

[vesselofthegods-blog]

Reassurance was nice, but reassurance did not come from the sight of her scrapping her hands against the bark. For a second he was worried, going out to ask her to be careful of scrapes, and then he saw her nails lengthen and he was shocked into silence. 

Americans are weird....and somewhat terrifying. 

Eventually she came down with the tiny kitten whom  at first  was clawing and clinging to the woman for dear life. And the moment Mau realized she was out of the tree, she began clinging to the woman purring like a motorboat, and letting happy mewls of thanks trying to curl up to her chest.

“Ummm, hey I am really sorry for bothering you but unmmm do you think you could help me out? Mau climbed a tree and I have no clue how to climb one after her….”

She wonders briefly if she’s become a firefighter and nobody actually told her about the change. Nevertheless, Laima glances up, looking for the cat. “I mean, I’m not an arborist.” A laugh follows. “But I’ll see what I can do. You said her name is Mau?”

One good thing about moving here is there’s not sand everywhere….. [what a great ice breaker Ramesses] [hes taking off a boot watching a pile of sand pour out of it before laughing sheepishly]

[conjuringkatya-blog]

[Looks at sand pile. Looks out the window. Looks back at the pile] Have you- how long- where is all of that sand coming from? [Bends over to inspect the sand more closely] Why didn’t you pour it out earlier? Surely it was uncomfortable?

Oh. That’s why he was staring. Stijn often forgot he was any different from the humans around him. That, and the strange living situation brought him to the assumption that maybe he wouldn’t stand out. Of course he was wrong. 

“No, as a matter of fact, there are very very few ‘bird people’. Actually- none that I am aware of. But thank you so much for the friendly reminder.”

[vesselofthegods-blog]

Ramesses paused with his mouth open, “I mean….. Ra and Horus…. and Thoth….” good job Ramesses good job. “They’re like you…. I guess that doesn’t help much huh…” He awkwardly played with his necklace looking at the door wondering if he should just flee this whole situation.

[geengeldgegeven-blog]

“Who?” It took a moment for the names to click in his brain, but when they finally did, Constantijn scoffed. “Gods? Kid, those are not real. At least not physically. They are cultural idols used to represent abstract subjects and scientific occurrences ancient people couldn’t understand.”

He scoffed, returning to his seat with a hard thud. “Avian folk are real. An ancient race that’s all but died out, not some… fairy tale.”

[vesselofthegods-blog]

Alright, he tried. The moment the other started talking about the gods Ramesses started shaking his head, hands up trying to tell the other to stop. But it was too late. He could hear Set’s laugh while Bast starting having a fit.

“You shouldn’t say.....stuff like that.” He cringed hand going to his head as the hourglass flipped. Suddenly the wind wiped up and sand started to cloak Ramesses as bright green eyes stared out through the cloud.

“How DARE you say that about us you over sized chicken” the female voice roared as the sand parted revealing the 9 foot tall goddess cat ears flat against her head. “You best apologize”

He really doesn’t mean any harm. In fact he hardly knows he’s doing it until he winces hearing Bast hiss in his head. ‘You’re staring isn’t that rude’

Of course he was staring. It’s not like there were many people like the stranger in front of him back home. “What is he….” was all the stunned Egyptian was able to murmur.

[geengeldgegeven-blog]

The poor man is trying his hardest to ignore the eyes burning into his skin and enjoy his coffee and stroopwafel, but it’s getting irritating. With a heavy huff, he shoved his saucer aside and swung around to face the stranger.

“Can I help you? I’m sorry, but you will have to make your own food here and not ogle mine.”

[vesselofthegods-blog]

The sudden movement cause Ramesses to jump a bit before shaking his head English stuttering.

“No no no no no no I don’t want any of your food. I’m sorry... there’s no one like you at home. My home of course not yours I’m sure there are lots of..... bird people....” fuck English.
