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!

It wasn't until one of the horses came wandering close to the fire, a very odd thing for a horse to be doing anyway, that he once again noticed they were around. Or were they? He blinked and it was certainly no horse in the chair beside him, but a woman.
He was really starting to second-guess his decision to partake in the mushrooms. Rubbing his eyes, he looked at her again. Still a woman. Alright then.]
Of course. [He passed the cup he'd been using over to her without any hesitation. He had, after all, just refilled it. After a moment, he also offered her one of the animal fur blankets that were placed around the fire.]
no subject
[ Her gaze lingers on him as she drains the cup in one draught, tossing it back over in exchange for the blanket. That, she wraps around her shoulders for the sheer softness when she lies back down, not out of concern for the cold. ]
I'm taking over this cot for a while, will you make sure no one falls on me?
[ Awful lot of rowdy partiers around. ]
no subject
Hmm. I can make no promises. [He made it sound like it was very regrettable.] You're too far. [Was that an invitation to get close? Yes. Yes, it most definitely was.]
no subject
Should I summon my serpent to guard me, then? She has a taste for any who would cause me harm but I don't like to disturb her on her night off.
no subject
You give your servant a night off? And expect others to do her job? [He scoffed at the idea, half teasing, half serious.]
no subject
[ Parodying him, Loki cushions her head in her arms, ankles folding. ]
But she isn't a servant, I don't have those. These days.
no subject
[He did, however, look genuinely puzzled why the woman wouldn't have servants. From her appearance, Ragnar would have guessed that she could afford them.]
no subject
[ Raising an arm, green magic shines in a long twisting twirl as Loki teleports Freyja around the limb. The viper blinks in surprise to be out of the tank in Loki's bedroom and glances around, hissing questions.
Chuckling, Loki murmurs up to her in response, ] I didn't know you were napping, I'm sorry.
no subject
Ragnar sat up and, contrary to any reaction that would make sense for someone who didn't want to die by viper bite, he leaned closer to get a better look.]
How did you-?
no subject
[ The snake's beady eyes lock onto the stranger and she bares her fangs, tiny though they are. ]
Freyja is one of the most poisonous snakes in this realm.
[ NICE TO MEET YOU. ]
no subject
So, here he was, drunkenly staring down a snake.]
Are you threatening me with your snake at my friend's Yuletide celebration? [Seriously?]
no subject
no subject
no subject
[ Kicking her heels on the cot. She's just that nice, adopting angry young man. ]
no subject
no subject
[ The straightest face ever. ]
no subject
I'm sure you are. And I am Auðumbla. [He had a guess who she really was, but he wasn't sure why she would lie, especially so atrociously.]
no subject
You're a mighty fine looking cow, in that case!
no subject
I know. That's what all the bulls say.
no subject
[ What a subtle, not at all intoxicated wink. ]
no subject
[Ragnar smirked in return, amused and happy to be entertained.]
no subject
The only person worth trusting, of course. Myself!
no subject
Can you stay one person now? [He wasn't sure how else to ask that, but as drunk as he was with the mushrooms on top of that the constant changes were making his head spin a bit.] Hm. So... you are not Freya. [Another random comment, but that had been his guess... when she'd been a she still.]
no subject
[ He rolls onto his side, patting Ragnar on the head. ]
Try harder, you're so rude.
