I Put a Spell On You [open]
Who: Leo and whoever!
What: Two options: Leo working with his tome Brynhildr or Leo being exhausted in his temple.
Where: Odin's temple
When: May 11th
Warnings: None at the moment
Option One
[Leo couldn't believe it. He'd woken up this morning, expecting nothing in particular to be different, and instead found Brynhildr in his kitchen cupboard. How it got there was beyond him, but frankly? He didn't care. He missed having his tome handy, able to do something when his shinki were otherwise occupied.
And maybe it was a bit of a security blanket. So what?
Either way, he's out in the front of his temple today, making everything levitate or randomly growing (and dismissing) trees out of the ground while he practices to make sure he hasn't lost his touch. If you've seen his god power, it almost looks like he's using that except there's a distinct dark purple smoke around everything that's levitating.
Leo is also smiling. He so rarely smiles here.]
Option Two
[Later that day, Leo is considerably less happy. He'd taken a moment to check his phone to see if he'd forgotten anything important...and was hit by how crazy things are right now. Sora's annoyed at him, Saix and Niles are...Saix and Niles, he's still trying to learn more Japanese, the books he wants never seem to be available, and on top of that he's getting a headache that doesn't seem to want to leave. It was gone earlier today, but now it's back.
He can be found in his temple, either scribbling notes in his notebook on what he's reading or massaging his temples in an attempt to stave off the headache]

My eldest brother is now king, and growing up I knew I could never take the throne--not because I'm a bastard, but because I'm just not meant to be a ruler. Even after the "games" ended, I still had to study to prepare myself to support him and ensure his decisions are carried out in ways he as king can't afford to.
[Or: Leo is going to be the hate sink for his brother's rule and he is entirely prepared and okay with this]
no subject
[He knows how tough it is, not because of being a bastard but to run a country is very tough and usually thankless. The scar on his stomach area is proof of that little notion.]
It seems those who are bastards and orphans are the ones who shape nations. Or from what I have witnessed.
[All people count of course but given he and Haurchefant are bastards and Estinien is an orphan...well, yeah.]
no subject
[Much easier than trying to change a country]
Bastards and orphans can go places legitimate children can't and do what they won't because what is reputation to us?
no subject
Is that it? I will not lie and not say I never had the same sentiment when I earned my position as Lord Commander.
[Zephirin was pissed but ehhhhhhhhh who gives a damn]
no subject
Well, it may be because we as a general rule seem to be prettier. Still, if everyone already expects me to be harsh or unforgiving because I wasn't hugged enough as a child, it makes it easier for me to be just that when the time calls for it.
no subject
However...if you are ever seeking any council or just an ear to listen, I will not hesitate to come.
[That and wine cellar.]
no subject
I may just do that at some point. Thank you, Aymeric.
no subject
Of course. I would do anything for a friend.
[You're a good person Leo, he can not see you as a stranger or 'just some guy in the same pantheon'.]
