Is this the joke of a tradition that the modern era has so blindly bastardized? How many here exactly are ( Read more... )

... Mistletoe, huh?

[Fishes around in his pockets and pulls out a little mistletoe phone strap.]

Like this, right?

[Hey it's even punier than the real thing. :Oc] Correct. [/amused.] A charm? How quaint.

Balder... Beldr. Different name for the same god, I think.

[Smile smile.]

This is what let me kill him.

That would not be surprising. These names all suffer some degree of change as they are passed down from tongue to tongue, and generation to generation.

[That earns a small laugh out of him.] So you've killed a god, Abel? Your brother must be proud of you. [...Stares at the puny thing.] That is minuscule, though. Have you been incapable of fashioning something greater out of the parasitical shrub?

[video] have a slightly creeped out Namine, Gil. XD crayon_memories December 23 2009, 09:34:05 UTC
That...was an interesting story Mister Gilgamesh.

[video] ffff sorry if the truth is so traumatizing, |D; rupturedbabylon December 23 2009, 09:44:20 UTC
It is but as how the tale has been recorded in the original Poetic Edda. [...] Did that frighten you, hare?

Re: [video] XDDD no worries. I had an idea just never the whole story in that context crayon_memories December 23 2009, 09:52:52 UTC
Hare? What's a Hare? No, I'm not frightened. Just...a little weird-ed out. I've never heard it before. You are a very good story teller Mister Gilgamesh.

[smile, ever-so-slightly teasing tone now] If only you would tell me your story.

[video] the more you know? RP teaches you things; now IRL! \o/ rupturedbabylon December 23 2009, 11:30:37 UTC
You're unaware? [And he's been calling you that for some time now, too. :|a] It is a mammal akin to a rabbit.

[Snort. No dice, Namine. He's not that easy to coax anything out of. :<] I'm no bard, child. Think what you will of the tale itself; I've decided to tell it so that the misinformed mass would at least be now learned of the mistletoe's true legend. [...In other words, he did it to troll as a Public Service Announcement for the mass, which is totally different from being someone's personal storyteller. So... politely declining that, sorry. :<]

Mere delusions are not creative. Besides, were you to follow the senseless babbles of this 'resurrection', Ragnarok - the most 'creative' part of the Edda, as you would put it - would not have occurred.

Then you would do well to agree. Heh, for the little good that it shall do to the ignorant, I suppose.

Indeed - the shrub is a poisonous parasite. Truly a deplorable wonder, how remarkably far mongrel idiocies can fall.

It had to happen sometime or other /o/ lifeofablade December 23 2009, 15:16:44 UTC
[Wow... Just, wow. He doesn't remember you being this talkative. Then again he also remembers you being sucked into a black-hole type thing because of the Holy Grail. Weird how things like that happen.

Anyway, just going to be glaring at you through the screen.]

Since when were you a story teller?

hiiiiiiii did you miss us :3c rupturedbabylon December 23 2009, 21:26:17 UTC
[Well first of all here we remember telling you to gtfo and see Kotomine while we have a one on one w/ Saber. :3c Second of all, I actually enjoy the myths that you mongrels came up with later k. Third, boredom does stuff to you. You'll start noticing that in a bit. Servants during peacetime are nothing but trouble. And fourth, with all this YAAY CHRISTMAS going on, CLEARLY someone needs to publicly troll the festive mass. Guess who, so, yeah. :Db

Heeeeey I think I know this lowlife. ...Orite Seiba's Fuyuki Masta y.] Oh? You are here as well, mongrel?

Of course! <3 lifeofablade December 23 2009, 21:35:46 UTC
[Oh Gil, you're such a troll and we love to hate you for it. Boredom gets to everyone doesn't it? Don't really feel like getting into a fight though if he hasn't done anything... That he knows of at least. Whatever.]

Yeah, and I can see the same goes for you.

I was going to put something witty here and then I forgot. :|; rupturedbabylon December 23 2009, 21:46:11 UTC
[I swear he needs a nyoro~n icon :3c Yes. Yes it does. B| Especially when you're stranded here with pretty much nothing but worms. ...At least there are some exceptions. It's okay let's pretend this is Hollow Ataraxia on crack and outside the Nasuverse or something. |Db]

I have been here for some time now. Wretched plane, though somewhat bearable, I suppose.

[Have some confusion, not!dad. They didn't have this crap in Britain back in his day.]

I know very little about the tales of the Norse-men. Missile-tow...
[Pronouncing it carefully.]

...The greenery strewn over the lintels?

[Hello to you too, there. ...Well this isn't crap. The Edda is rather fascinating, tyvm. Looks like you and me will be having sum moar storytiems, not!son. :|a]

Then perhaps now would be a good time to start learning, Mordred. The Norse Edda is a commendable read. [Since we lack bards and all. Those are always better, of course.]

Mistletoe, Devil's fuge; it has several names, but yes, that is correct.

[Oh the Norse stuff is cool and he's heard a little of it...it's these faggot trees that he doesn't recognise. Blames those asshole Saxons for it.]

I know a few of the tales, but not that one.

But I have never seen these 'mistletoe' before.

[Wouldn't you blame everything on them Saxons if you could, though? :3c]

Truly? It is a notable one. The first of many events that shall ultimately lead up to Ragnarok, as I've already stated.

You must have now; they are littered everywhere within both the city and the village. Wasteful and meaningless, at that.
