[Merlin's sitting at the foot of a bed, a large laundry basket beside him. The actual laundry is folded beside it so that the basket can instead hold a duck - one of Freya's, looked after by him until she's able to do it herself ( Read more... )

Everything!

Demons, vampires, werewolves, skinwalkers, zombies, chupacabra, yeti, ghosts, witches, revenants, hellhounds, hellbeasts, wendigos, , rugaru, changelings, djinn...

reapers count - the nasty ones..... and various spirits

and lets not forget gods.

[voice] pratservant July 8 2011, 03:37:37 UTC

The gods are monsters?

[voice] trickster_treat July 8 2011, 03:43:07 UTC

The ones that eat people are. Some are just ego-maniacs who crush humans beneath them. Or just ignore them. If you're lucky.

Not too many of them with the warm and fuzzy for the scurrying mortals.

I don't understand. How can they expect people to worship them if they do such horrible things?

[voice] trickster_treat July 8 2011, 04:03:04 UTC

Sacrifices. And fear.

Re: [voice] pratservant July 8 2011, 04:09:09 UTC

Fear's a pretty effective way of keeping people in line. [It works for Kings too, though Merlin doesn't say that.]

But what about balance?

[voice] trickster_treat July 8 2011, 04:15:32 UTC

For gods? They're usually too busy fighting each others' pantheons or buffing their nails on a human toy to cause massive damage.

When they get going... whew... whole towns wiped off the map.

[voice] pratservant July 8 2011, 20:07:45 UTC

I would've expected better from gods. Not sure why, I've never actually met one.

[voice] trickster_treat July 8 2011, 21:39:27 UTC

Well, now you have~

[voice] pratservant July 9 2011, 00:06:20 UTC

...You're a god?

[voice] trickster_treat July 9 2011, 00:15:52 UTC

Yup, sure am~

[voice] pratservant July 9 2011, 00:36:44 UTC

And do you do those things?

[voice] trickster_treat July 9 2011, 00:48:34 UTC

Naw, I don't eat people. I happen to like most humans.

[voice] pratservant July 9 2011, 00:59:35 UTC

[Merlin sighs.]

That's a relief.

So...what. Is it that you do, exactly. If you're not a monster and you're not human.

[He references gods all the time, but never realized how little the concept meant to him, how abstract it was.]

[voice] trickster_treat July 9 2011, 01:08:56 UTC

I'm a trickster. I do trickster things.

I never said that I wasn't a monster.

[voice] pratservant July 9 2011, 03:08:28 UTC

But you said that you liked people.

A trickster...is that anything like a jester?
