ODIN'S TEMPLE - OPEN LOG

[asgardswisdom]

welcome to raven's garðr.

Who: ANYONE; Odin may or may not appear if asked to (and even if not!)
What: Any interactions that take place in Odin's temple.
When: ANYTIME; the temple does not lock or close in any way, and this log is permanently open.
Where: Raven's Garðr, in Odin's district.
Rating: Please take anything adult rated to a private log; everything else is welcome.

This is a permanent open log for anything that takes place in Odin's temple. Using this log is completely optional and you are welcome to use the log community instead. This is just one easy way to get an NPC handler's eyes on something you may want Odin to be aware of, whether the god actually makes an appearance in your thread or not. You are welcome to play out threads with other characters as well, or even just leave your own comment of something your character is doing alone in the temple. This is a completely open action log for literally anything.

If your character wishes to make contact with Odin, you can simply leave a comment here with an OOC note or plot it out ahead of time! How your character attempts to gain his attention is their choice, just as it is his choice whether or not to respond. Comments on this post are valid for AC.

[ He doesn't sigh. In fact, it's hard to say his expression has really changed at all throughout the course of this (albeit brief) conversation. It's more like there's this slight moment, a single second longer than what might've otherwise been a normal pause, where Odin just looks at them after they finish speaking before turning his attention to the other.

What does it mean? Who knows.

So when Klaus finishes speaking, there's a slight pause afterwards that might in some universe have had space for a sigh as Odin glances off towards his garden and back to the mortals again. ]

If you want permanent, you'll want these.

[ He offers Klaus a netted bag of what looks like large, assorted grapes. They're coffee cherries, if either of them would be able to recognize such a thing; Odin doesn't seem keen on specifying what they are or what they're meant to do with them.

Instead, he turns back to Rhys and offers him what looks like a large bag of coffee beans, which it is. ]

But this should "tide you over" for now. Use it wisely.

[ Is it advice? A warning? A lowkey dunk on both of you for think beans count as any kind of long term solution? You guessed it. If he doesn't want to have to field the same request again, then here's what they need. Done and done. ]

You'll want Sigyn's help getting those started, I'm sure. Was that all?

[ A not entirely subtle 'are we done here'?

( And if he's giving the impression that this singular bag of coffee beans is all he's giving them, it's intentional but also false. There'll be about a three-month supply of these bags sitting in their room back at Tyr House; with Sigyn's magic, it shouldn't take that long to get a harvest-able supply of coffee cherry trees.

He's just fucking with them. This one's not that big of a mystery. :') ) ]

[ Even though Rhys has never seen a coffee cherry before (he's a code monkey/middle manager from the late 2860s who grew up in some fancy city okay do you think he's ever seen a farm or whatever it is they use to grow coffee trees okay give him a break), Odin's explanation - if vague - is enough for him to understand that they're supposed to produce coffee. So he takes the bag of coffee beans without protest, and nods a couple of times, perhaps a bit too fast. ]

Sigyn. Right. Got it. Uh, that's all for me at least.

[thanks, odin, he has no idea what the hell he's just been handed. klaus stares at the coffee cherries, contemplatively tips his head one way then the other, mouth opening, closing, opening again and—] Thanks...? [just ignore the faint lilt of confusion at the end there, he's got this.

his free hand reaches out and he clasps rhys's metal arm, fingers cinching tight around his wrist.] Yeah, me too. I'll take these to Sigyn and we'll get the [pause] coffee started.

Thank you. [there is a pause on klaus's end, the slightest moment of hesitation while he contemplates offering his hand for odin to shake, but that'd mean either dropping the cherries or letting go of rhys then regrabbing him afterward. too much movement, he doesn't wanna seem more awkward than he already is because of this stupid silence.]

Uhm. [oh good, another beat before he does a neat heel-turn and begins leading rhys away, voice somewhat high-pitched, way too strained for his liking.] Goodbye, Odin! [to rhys under his breath a second later:] Please, walk as fast as you can.
