The Yule Log
who: The Norse and everyone else in the city!
what: The Norse celebrate Yule. Gods help everyone.
when: December 22nd, Winter Solstice
where: Somewhere outside
warnings: Alcohol, drugs, animal sacrifice, blood play, rough foreplay, sex. Will update if necessary.
The Yule celebration has gotten underway on the Winter Solstice and it promises to be a most interesting night. The Norse have gone all out with this affair to make sure it's going to be a success. First thing to be spotted is a bonfire, so big that you might want to be careful not to trip around it, because you'll fall right in. There's plenty of room for dancing too, if you feel like grooving to a beat that's a little more unusual than most.
The Yule celebration shares a lot of similarities with Christmas, so it's a good time for gift giving. There's little shoes on a table, mimicking the tradition where Odin would leave presents for good children by putting them in their shoes. Claim one as your own and maybe a friend will leave a gift inside one for you. Watch it though. Any grinches will be fed to the Yule Cat.
There's a table set up to the right of the bonfire with food, mostly of the hearty kind that the Norse seem to prefer, and of course, lots of alcohol. Please remember not to get into any drinking contests with the gods. They will observe no responsibility for what happens afterward.
There are also mushrooms for consumption, provided by everyone's favorite psychotic Viking, Ivar The Boneless. These ones are directly from his home world, which means they come with a variety of side effects. They have the ability to make a person hallucinate quite a bit. But they can also make people much more horny than usual. Lastly, there's the effect that hits some people in making them extremely violent. Sometimes one effect hits, sometimes more than one. In any case, anyone who consumes some is assured to have an...interesting time.
On a lighter note, there's mistletoe scattered around, hung from the trees and tent beams. Fun fact: the Vikings were the first one to use it for the tradition of kissing. Of course, they also believed it was a plant that was powerful enough to kill a god, so the kissing was ostensibly for protection.
At the height of the night, there will be an animal sacrifice done. A goat is slaughtered and the blood from it is gathered into a couple of bowls. If you'd really like to go all out like a Viking, paint your face in the still-warm blood, or drink a little bit of it. Otherwise, enjoy freshly seared chunks of goat as it bastes over the bonfire.
Have fun, drink, fight, and remember to make your ancestors proud!

Then Loki approaches and Ivar is fairly bewitched by the greenness of his eyes. They seem to glow as they reflect the torchlight, somehow absorbing the darkness around them as well. Such old eyes, the kind that have gone through much, even death, and been reborn anew. There's a reason that Floki, Ivar's mentor, claimed kinship to the god, for the Silvertongue was one of the most infamous for a good reason.
With the goat's blood still warm on his fingers, he paints three lines on each of Loki's cheeks and his forehead. Nine, the number held most sacred by the Norse. There's power in the belief of things and Ivar can feel it now, the same crackle of energy that had filled the air just before Odin had visited him to inform him of his father's death.]
no subject
Nine. A nine-rune casting is yours, if you break the stones to build runes for it.
[ Pagan gods don't do blessings but they do dole out favours and Loki decides on his easily, still on his knees. By the time he rises, he is a she and her long hair tumbles forward as she runs her fingers up through Ivar's hair, sitting astride his lap. He seems affected by the hallucinogenic plants so she sways side-to-side slowly, serpentine, just to make focusing harder. Playful. ]
A selfish gift, really, when it tells me more about you. That's what I want.
no subject
Ivar finds himself getting dizzy, nearly entranced by the dark beauty of the goddess before him. He blinks a few times, trying to focus, but he can't quite seem to. How many Vikings could say that they had Loki on their lap? There's a pleased sort of whine that comes from him as she runs her fingers through his hair.]
Hmmm. And you always seem to get what you want, one way or another. [They had that trait in common, this proud, fierce Viking and his goddess.]
no subject
[ The goddess kisses him between the eyes and when she leans back, she's a fox. The shapeshifting comes like blinking tonight with the aid of the mushrooms. Her grin is toothy and she still has blood on her fur, now striped down her snout. ]
My thanks for the goat, I'm sure all the gods present felt its resonance work through them.
no subject
[He rubs a hand behind Loki's ear and the thick ruff of fur around her neck. In his current state, his usual tactile nature has been ramped considerably. He leans in, rubbing against Loki's furry cheek with his own.]
Mmmm, you're soft.
no subject
[ She nuzzles his hair like a mother with a kit, squeezing Ivar in a fond hug. ]
I'm going to try some of the mushrooms from your land, so don't tell anyone who's responsible if mischief is abroad after this. You're on my team!
no subject
I won't tell anyone. [Frankly, watching Loki sow a little bit of chaos and mischief will be highly amusing to the young Viking. He reaches over, grabbing a mushroom from the bowl next to him.] Shall we get you started?
