Kvasir messes me up so so so fucking much you guys. Like I understand the vikings had a different approach to death and yada yada so forth whatever arguments you wanna make they're reasonable but still it. I just.

You mean this beloved man, known for his wisdom and poem and song, and who went around helping people with his wisdom and poem and song and was dearly beloved by the gods just. You guys he was straight up murdered and his blood stolen for magic fucking mead. There's no revenge for his murder or anything it's just that Odin saved his mead.

"Folk declares that every skald (poet) has a drop of Kvasir's blood in him. ... because a world without it's poets would be too dreadful a place to image."

Messed up or not, he lives on in poets, storytellers, and songwriters alike- all those with the understanding of the power of word, the wisdom to yield it.

In The Bifrost Incident it's still the same. His blood pumping and fueling the machine, running through arcane glyphs. He's always just been used for his blood, and even more irony drawn from it likely being Odin gaining the most use from his blood.

And yet, no matter how miniscule it may seem, Kvasir still lives on in his universe there too, in poets and songwriters and storytellers- somehow, The Mechanisms carry a piece of him in their travels ever since his death and Yddrasil's fall, just as you and I may have his blood in our veins.

#RAAAAAAA KVASIR!!!!!!! HE WAS THE FIRST POET I'M PUNCHING AIR!!!!!! #as someone who feels drawn to the power of word (i like writing heehoo) he messes me UP #also to clarify my books say that Odin wanted a draught of the mead bc the mead gives the drinker the powers of kvair #and Odin didn't need kavsir's wisdom odin already got that from the well he wanted kavsir's tongue #his ability and fluidity of speech #honestly the Myths really jump around from “Odin is a mystical all knowing otherworldly wise being to be respected” #to “heehoo big smart eye patch man” #which is what happens when you choose to study a religion long since mixed up by cultural changes and views #aka ppl making shit up for personal biases or compromises #the mechanisms #the bifrost incident #the mechanisms tbi

Godly Parents of the Bishops

This is kinda just a quick first draft for later fic ideas. I'll probably come back and not like it. This is in HC order of collection:

Shamura, youngest child of Inanna, goddess of fate, and Odin the Fox, god of foresight.

Narinder, only child of Hecate/Diana (need to pick a name), goddess of magic, and Anubis, god of death.

Kallamar, second born child of Apollo, god of shiny things and music, and Sirona, god of healing and the sea.

Heket, only child of Set, god of plenty, and Demeter, god of starvation.

Leshy, unknown.

#i tried my best for the names and associated powers to make sense #Inanna comes from the same bg as Shamura's name and is a goddess of war while Odin is a god of wisdom #Narinder is a jackel-cat hybrid in this #one of Kallamar's parents being the god of music being ironic for a guy who got his ears chopped off #and I just thought it would be funny if Demeter (goddess of the harvest) and Set (god of the barren desert) were switched #also I don't know why I settled on magic for Narinder's mother maybe bc Nari doesn't have two dominions and trying to reverse the flow of #death sounds very magical #CotL #Cult of the Lamb

Everyone s irrelevant to your life, unless you make them relevant.

You chose who you let in your life or not, you chose to let a person fuck you over or yoke you up.

But it’s also your choice to not tolerate it, to let them go, and let it go.

You chose your path to Happiness or Misery.

Which road are you willing to take?

Legends and myths about trees

Celtic beliefs in trees (10)

Ph for Phagos (Beech) - all year around

Stars: Mercury, Saturn; Gender: female; Element: air, earth; Patrons: Ogma, Thoth, Hermes, Mercurius, Odin, Kronos; Symbols: learning + knowledge, wisdom + understanding, prosperity

The beech tree is a tree of learning, a symbol of prosperity and success. When walking through a beech forest, the large trees with the smooth, silver-grey bark and the curves created by the trunk and branches are like a living elephant or rhinoceros, giving you a sense of relief all year round.

In spring, the beech forests are bright and breezy, and the bluebells are in full bloom, the contrast between the dazzling young leaf colours and the blue announces that 'spring has come'. In spring, the beech spreads soft, translucent, golden-green leaves with a fan-like shape, and in summer these leaves eventually become hard and dark green in colour, changing to yellow, reddish brown or golden in autumn. It is an essential tree for the forest.

The beech tree symbolises the written word, human innate wisdom and ancient knowledge. In olden times, writing was written on beech wood, and the first books were made by binding thinly cut beech wood. Before that, they were scrolls.

The beech tree is associated with deities of wisdom, knowledge and intelligence, such as Odin in Norse mythology, who brought us the runes, or the inventor of the Ogham script; the great warrior of the Tuatha Dé Danann; the monstrous strength of the eighty oxen; and the Celtic god, the sun-faced Ogma. And because of its connection with the creation of the secret code alphabet, it is also a symbol of divination and prophecy.

木にまつわる伝説・神話

ケルト人の樹木の信仰 (10)

Ph は Phagos (ﾌﾞﾅ) - 1年中

星: 水星、土星; 性: 女性; 要素: 空気、土; 守護神: オグマ、トト、ヘルメス、メルクリウス、オーディン、クロノス; シンボル: 学習＋知識、知恵＋理解、繁栄

ブナの木は、学びの木、繁栄と成功の象徴でもある。ブナの森を歩くとき、その大木は銀灰色のした滑らかな樹皮、幹や枝がつくる曲線はまるで生きた象か犀のようで、一年中安堵感を与えてくれる木だ。

春、ブナの林の中は明るく風もよく通り、ブルーベルが一面に咲き誇り、眩い若葉色とブルーのコントラストに「春が来た」ことを知らせてくれる。春になると、ブナは半透明の柔らかい金緑色の葉を扇状に広げ、やがて夏にはこの葉が硬くなり濃い緑色になり、秋には黄色、赤褐色、金色へと変化していく。森になくてはならない木だ。

ブナの木は書かれた文字、人間が生まれつき備えている知恵、古代の知識を象徴している。ブナの木は、ルーン文字をもたらした、北欧神話のオーディンや、オガム文字を発明し、トゥアサ・デー・ダナンの偉大な戦士で八十頭の牛にも勝る怪力の持ち主、ケルトの神である太陽の顔を持つオグマなど、知恵、知識、知力をつかさどる神々と関連している。そして秘密の暗号アルファベットの創造と関係があることから、占いや予言の象徴ともなっている。

Take Odin’s advice. He isn’t the Norse god of wisdom for nothing.

Six Sentence Sunday

The fic where Thor gets "affianced" isn't really about the arranged marriage, it's more about whether or not Thor should be so quick to accept Loki's "I can totally get you out of this, bro, but you'll have to trust me" offer.

“He’s a troublemaker,” insists Fandral. “He causes problems for everyone, and he enjoys doing it.” “He’s the son of Odin,” says Thor, loudly, reminding everyone, “just as I am.” Perhaps more so, even, for doesn’t their father plan and scheme and engage in subterfuge as gleefully as Loki does? He might be more subtle about it, but while Thor admires and respects their father he has never quite been able to trust him (and he suspects that Odin would be disappointed if he did). “None of us would ever suggest that he isn’t,” says Hogun, stepping up to the role of placating peacemaker.

The tricky thing with this fic is I'll have to balance a good-natured tendency to think the best of people which may be edging into naivety with not making him just seem stupid and/or too gullible to live. But Thor is also stubborn, which I think can become a refusal to see the flaws of someone he cares for and who he has long-since categorised as "not that shifty" in his own head. Meanwhile he has some self-esteem issues going on (if only because in most of the fic I read he tends not to). And yeah I know fandom tends to view Thor as being "like Odin" (while Loki gets Frigga, because apparently it's one attentive parent per child around here) but writing that bit up there has made me question that more. Hrmmmm...

#consider: odin's thing is wisdom (supposedly) yet much of fandom thinks Thor is as thick as his own biceps (which he isn't) #six sentence sunday #fic snippets #mcu tag i guess

||. gang i'm powerful i just watched all 5 45m episodes of AG.ENTS OF SHI.ELD that dealt with asgardians and asgardian history and i have so many thoughts and HEADCANONS rattling around in this brain

#( ooc . ) — stories that leap from the page . #tbd #(maybe idk) #(i have thoughts so many good thoughts) #(also as ever lady sif is a BAMF i love her) #(i have specifically thoughts on lorelei - bc man i hate her i hate her so much) #(and i have thoughts on thor and his upbringing and how /different/ he is from odin and-) #(-tbh probably most every other viking warrior he comes across tbch w u) #(sif hogun AND loki are such logical fellows and fandral and volstagg both just go along with the team-) #(keeping them save and motivated you know) #(but then there's thor: the leader) #(and that man is ALL heart. he follows where his heart leads and is so unapologetic about it) #(or at least he is until people get hurt.... whether they actually do or he just perceives it as his fault they got hurt) #(and i have thoughts about that. and i have thoughts abt how odin god of wisdom is THE most pragmatic of all asgard) #(and how that would've come into such CONTEST with thor) #(and i have thoughts on thor vs. humans and their intolerance of aliens and dangerous things) #(idek where to BEGIN)

[sonntam]

My favorite part is how Kratos gets told Atreus has been searching for Tyr behind his back, that Odin won't interfere and will just calm things down with Freya, as long as Kratos does not fight Odin... and Kratos just promptly says "no".

No "I'll think about it" or "geez, what was that about, Atreus?".

#admittedly mimir has given his word of wisdom #which was #fuck odin #so that was a good argument against odins agreement #kratos is technically outvoted in his household anyway #if both mimir and atreus are against it then may as well throw the towel #god of war ragnarok spoilers #sonntam talks

Everyone's got me all wrong. You think war drives me? Power? Wealth? Naw. Never have. Know what drives me? What I really want? I want answers. Same as you. See, mortals have it easy. When they push up against life's big questions, they can look to us to give them meaning. Divine comfort. We both know that's a sham. But when we have questions? Why are we here? To give meaning to mortals while living without it ourselves? No. We're more than that.
