EVENT LOG: FROM THE GROUND UP
Who: ANYONE that wants to interact with Laufey, Queen of the Earth Giants, in person
What: Laufey is visiting Asgard for one day, as part of the From the Ground Up plot
When: July 17
Where: throughout Asgard
Rating: PG, probs
early morning: unshaken but stirred [ Those awake in the early hours between midnight and sunrise will hear the rhythmic stomping of stone, one sickening crunch after another. Anyone paying attention to the timing of them might begin to wonder if they aren't footsteps - and to make such a sound, those feet must be large. But looking outside reveals no behemoth charging towards the kingdom. Only darkness and silence between each one as it comes closer. And closer. And closer.
And then it stops. Silence takes over the night once more. And nothing in the city indicates that anything was disturbed at all. Perhaps it's your imagination. Perhaps this is all just a dream.
Or, for those that couldn't sleep on such a thing - perhaps if you take to the streets and move quickly enough, you might catch a glimpse of a dark figure walking through with seemingly no urgency. Her feet are bare but rather ordinary in size and shape otherwise. The ground does not rumble beneath her, and there seems to be nothing else of note other than perhaps the curious glance she gives every inch of the city as it passes. She doesn't stop or slow her pace for anything, remaining steady on a straight course towards the castle - but she drags her fingertips along a wall or dips a toe into a bed of soil along the way. Perhaps this is entirely unrelated to what you heard. Perhaps it really was nothing after all.
Approach her if you must, but do so quickly. Despite her interest in the city, nothing seems to keep her from her goal. Once she's reached the castle, she's gone. ]
CLOSED to the gods + peter quill and finn: a busy morning [ Tyr came to her asking for help sealing a colossal hole in the earth that broke through to something quite dangerous for their new Wanderers - and now she's here at the castle helping with some absurd communication thing they requested as well. It leaves a subtle shade of humor glinting in her eyes as she regards the gods now, her kin that seem to have found a species to spoil. ]
Well now, darlings. You have me, for the time being. Tell me how I can help.
[ There's a tone of amusement to it, like this is some adorable pet project that she's agreed to contribute to. But it cannot exist as they want it to without her, and there's a certain amount of authority that comes with such a thing. Doing this is her choice. Since we immortals seem to be in a benevolent mood, this era. ]
throughout the day: what's this, what's this? [ Where she hadn't much time to explore the city properly on her way in, now that the network has been successfully established and Asgard's residents are bustling around under the bright sun, Laufey wanders through the streets of every district with a stoic curiosity guiding her path. She is not particularly moved by any one feat of architecture or greenery, but she brushes her fingers along everything she can reach all the same.
Perhaps she reaches out to tap a single finger against something you're working on. Or maybe she's staring directly at you, unblinking and unmoving, measuring you up to some unknown scale. Or perhaps she simply passes you by completely as she walks, still barefoot and unhurried, feeling the sun on her skin and the earth beneath her feet - basking in this time like a cat with no particular attachments to anything but its own being. ]
late, late at night: goodnight, moon [ Yet again, those awake in the early hours of the morning might catch her wandering through the streets - this time, on her way out towards a seemingly random edge of the city. This time, if someone is observing or following her, she continues her walking but snaps her attention directly to them, unblinking eyes trained solidly on them no matter where they might be lurking from. There's no heat to them, and a quietly amused smile curls at the edge of her lips as she regards you silently. ]
Better to rest your weary hearts, dear. There are things in this realm that are not so kind to those that encroach upon their territory.
[ She says the last word with some weight behind it, a warning that might apply to far more than just space. After that, she continues walking, but not without throwing a sidelong glance that suggests she might not be adverse to you joining her, at least for the time being. When she reaches the edge of the city, however, she gives anyone still trailing her a sly wink before vanishing completely into the woods. No matter how hard one looks, they will not find her there in the wilderness surrounding Asgard.
But if they stay awake for another hour or so, they will hear the same tremendous and powerful footsteps walking away from the kingdom. ]
[ OOC: This is the optional log for interacting with Laufey, Queen of the Earth Giants, during the From the Ground Up event! She is only in Asgard for the one day, but she is not adverse to having a conversation with any of you Wanderers. You can find the accompanying network post here. Let us know if you have any questions! ]
