what’s @zelmastanton up to?

[zelmastanton]

Oh, you know. The usual. Saving the world. Let me tell you: I'm starting to get why Stephen had to hire a librarian.

[askbalderthings]

texts @zelmastanton and asks if she’s busy 

[zelmastanton]

*texts back* I’m free! What’s up?

[askbalderthings]

Not much, it’s quiet and boring. Wanna do something?

[zelmastanton]

Sure. Like what?

[askbalderthings]

pop over to see if @zelmastanton is busy with Smol

[zelmastanton]

–

Oh no! Nothing too serious, I hope!

[askbalderthings]

Scrambled my All speak so I couldn’t understand anyone and they couldn’t understand me

We got it fixed but it was a nasty hex

[zelmastanton]

Sounds it!

[zelmastanton]

Oh perfect! Can you move a couch for me real quick? What’s up?

[askbalderthings]

Hello Zelma

Oh sure *casually scoops up the couch* where do you want it? 

[zelmastanton]

Just in this other room here. Hi, Smol~!

[askbalderthings]

*carefully sets it in the other room*

we came to talk to you about Smol being your apprentice 

[zelmastanton]

Oh. Okay, we can talk about that.

[askbalderthings]

I also wanted to ask,

if you don’t mind, I have another friend by the name of Helix, she also does magic but hers is bit different, to bring her by to meet you? 

[zelmastanton]

Oh yeah, sure. It’s always nice to meet new people!

[askbalderthings]

*smiles* great

[zelmastanton]

Busy! How about you?

[zelmastanton]

Asgardians are a type of fungus prove me wrong.

[askbalderthings]

Being Asgardian is I don’t need sleep, I can go days without sleep~ And it’s fine, it’s great, no issues and then suddenly you hit a wall and it’s no longer fine, I need sleep now 

[zelmastanton]

Humans are really just like required to do things every day that's otherwise just nice for you guys huh. Sleep every day? Asgardian: decadent. Human: required. Eat every day? Asgardian-- okay well, it's required but just because you guys have a very low threshold for "hangry." Breathing??? A human is in space without some kind of fancy suit for 0.5 seconds and we're completely toast and you guys just??? hang out up there? swim around? yell with no air? what the hell? I actually have no idea how you guys do that other than like "magic." I'm low-key convinced you all photosynthesize.

[askbalderthings]

*knock on @zelmastanton‘s door and open it* Zelma? Are you home?

[askbalderthings]

_

Yeah… that’s the other thing.

I also told him about a tantrum Tiny had and he decided right away Tiny is going to lose his magic. 

which, I do think Tiny needs to be disciplined more but I was not expecting him to say that 

[zelmastanton]

...is he okay???

[askbalderthings]

*knock on @zelmastanton‘s door and open it* Zelma? Are you home?

[zelmastanton]

Hi Balder! Nice timing, I just got back from a grocery run. What’s up?

[askbalderthings]

Hello Zelma

Kinda having a slight issue around one of the kids. Smol goes to school so she can practice her magic and be around other kids but she’s being tormented and it’s really upsetting her, so we’re going to pull her out of that

But I also don’t want her just… at home doing nothing all day. That’s how she gets into trouble. 

since you used to work in a library, could you recommend books for her? both magical and non-magical? 

[zelmastanton]

I still work in a library, just a different one~

Sure! I can recommend some stuff. It’s too bad Loki’s plan to make her his apprentice didn’t work out, huh?

[askbalderthings]

It mostly just didn’t go anywhere. Maybe he would be willing to try again?

If not, I want to have backup plan. 

I’m also going to look into having her do something else for social interaction. She needs it. 

[zelmastanton]

Maybe? I don’t know what he’d do with an apprentice now that he’s not Sorcerer Supreme anymore.

[askbalderthings]

yeah but it’s also good for him to be doing stuff 

Unless… you need an apprentice? 

[zelmastanton]

Erm… well, I could use some help but… if she causes trouble, I’m not sure I can handle that. Yeah, what’s Loki up to these days? Does he still not remember anything?

[askbalderthings]

Hmm… I see your point. We could have a talk with her about what you expect and if she causes trouble, just come get me or Loki. 

No, he got his memories back. We’re dealing with KL issues. 

You have anything you need moved? I’ll tell you about it. 

[zelmastanton]

Haha, no, but I’ve got to do some maintenance on the Sanctum wards if you want to talk at me while I work. :)

[askbalderthings]

alright

*tells her about what KL did and what Loki said yesterday while she works*

Seems a bit extreme to me but KL has had a lot of chances. 

[zelmastanton]

Well that’s... scary. That doesn’t sound like him at all.

[askbalderthings]

*knock on @zelmastanton‘s door and open it* Zelma? Are you home?
