What: There's a giant bird!
Warnings: None yet


[Lightning has had quite a morning. Waking up to a giant white bird standing over her bed, cooing happily, was both welcoming and confusing. The last time she had seen her companion was when the world was ending. She had said her goodbye's to him then.

And now here he was. The Angel of Valhalla himself. Odin. The chocobo was as happy to see Light as she was to see him. Since Hope had suddenly left, it does her heart good to see something familiar other than the crystal flowers.]

[Open]

[After posting on the network, Lightning has to make sure that her temple grounds weren't littered with things that might attack her visitors. Being a god of death might invite some unsavory visitors. Mostly ghosts, though thankfully anything nasty is confined to the catacombs. Odin follows her around just like back home, checking on the same things she was checking on, anything a normal bird wouldn't do.

When things check out, Light opens the doors and waits for Sora and others. Visitors will see the god, Odin, and the ostrich from hell milling about the garden. Be careful not to fall into the river and stick to the paths.]


[Closed to Pidge]

[When Pidge wakes up, one of the first thing she should notice is a large white bird watching over her. With a soft 'kweeh' he'll just keep watching her until she responds. Preferably with pats to the head and praises on how handsome he is.

Please notice him, little human.]

Comments

[She'd tell her fellow Egyptian god Leo's name, but she's not that petty of a person. No need to cause conflict among gods unless it was for a damn good reason.]

As long as they don't start forcing their ideals on us, all we can do is tolerate them or interact with them as little as we can. I know there's a few I'm not going out of my way to meet.

[revolutionfalcon]

It's not always easy to avoid them, but I do the best I can. [With an annoyed sigh, he shakes his head.] At least there's people willing to learn and adjust, even if none of us really want to be here. It doesn't make up for the idiots, but it helps.

[Even if he's had some trouble settling back in to a society mostly at peace, or at least not in constant war, there have been people trying to make the transition easier, or wanting to learn things that come with living on the battlefield.]

[savioring]

[To Lightning it's nice not being know as the savior here. There's no comments about her other then the occasional Near Shore resident remarking on her hair. It's... a welcome break.]

I've met a few people who are quite content with this place.

[revolutionfalcon]

[Shun doesn't seem dismissive of the notion, but he can't agree fully with it either.] Being content with it and wanting to be here are different. It is peaceful, I'll give it that, but nobody asked to be here and a lot of us were in the middle of things back in our own worlds that we'd rather finish.

[The shinki are a different issue since they've got nothing to go back to (in theory. There's at least one he's not giving up on) but plenty of them seem to be at least dissatisfied with how things are run in this place.]

[savioring]

[Light's mostly mad because she was pulled here right before she was allowed to finally have a nice, peaceful life with all of her friends and sister.]

I have a feeling that there are people rather happy here. A god I spoke to sounded like she preferred this place to her home.

[revolutionfalcon]

They must have come from some hellish situations, then. And I thought coming from what I did was bad.

[Not that he's particuarly interested in elaborating on that unless the conversation goes a direction that means he doesn't have much of a choice. It might be telling that his next words aren't exactly an attempt to follow up on that, either, and he glances over to the chocobo again.]

Seeing something like that appear the same day as someone mentioned getting a cat back only really makes it clearer the kind of differences we have in our own worlds, even just in wildlife.

[savioring]

[If he wanted to go on with it, she's sure he would have done so.

Odin realizes he's being talked about and fluffs himself up.]

We have cats where I'm from. They just don't look the same as the ones here.

[revolutionfalcon]

I spoke to someone the other day who had what were basically seagulls and pelicans that could spit water. Small differences are hardly uncommon either.

[Still, with a remark like that, it's hard not to want to ask. Shun spares a moment of attention for the fluffing-up chocobo before he returns it to Lightning.]

How different do they look?
