[All things considered, this is really, really not the right time to be asking this question. A lot of things have happened in the last few days that have left him completely rattled, but if there's one thing Draco Malfoy is good at, it's compartmentalizing.

As such, despite the fact that he has Voldemort on his case, Severus is freaking out and there's the whole other set of issues with himself and Jade and the fact that people from home keep turning up, he's focused on something else entirely.

Loki. The god, not the traveler. On the one hand, he quite likes the trickster god if only because he can appreciate someone being cagey and taunting others. On the other hand, he really hates when it's being used against him. The god has given him a mission, and though he should be worried about other things that is his main focus.

…of course there were some things that were said during their conversation that have left him unsettled. Did he really not know how to have fun in this place anymore?

Honestly. That was just pathetic. It's even more pathetic that he can count his actual friends on both hands. That's…really, really not going to help him in this case. And because it's pathetic to him he's turning on the anonymous text feature for once.]

As I'm sure most of you have realized, this place is quite limiting, not to mention occasionally dangerous. [Here's looking at you, mirror-verse.] However, I've an important question to ask you all.

What do you do for fun in this place?

Inquiring minds wish to know, etcetera, etcetera.

[Now just let him sit back quietly and judge all of you as he thinks this through.]

Oh. And leave your name and which house you're in. You know. To make sure the answer isn't completely biased.

[Some time later, this list begins to pop up as well:

Odin: 3. Sigyn: 5. Freyr: 4. Loki: 2. Heimdall: 3. Hel: 3. Thor: 1. Baldr: 1]

[And no one was surprised.]

What precisely is so great about reading anyhow?

anon text.

[gayagenda]

Sex, obviously.

Not that it's easy to come by here. So I guess that's more of a general response.

[It's only anonymous because she's ashamed that she even has to say that.]

[gayagenda]

And I'm not saying my house.

[5thchild]

I enjoy music, playing it or listening to it. I also enjoy reading.

[ have a smile, anonymous one ] I'm Kaworu Nagisa, Sigyn house.

[Ah, of course. Hello Kaworu, you're still getting text]

Very singular answers. Do you prefer to be alone then?

If you find always working fun, perhaps you're working too much.

Half of those are only revolving around the cold, so what do you do during the warmer months? Serious question.

Also can't you read? Name AND house, Frost. House.

[ofthursday]

I spend much of my time reading. Work is also enjoyable in a way.

Castiel, Heimdall.

[wasthemaster]

I'm almost afraid to ask, but what is it that you like to read? And what sort of work?

text

[servesthehuman]

Work.
Exploring the city.
Practicing with my power.

Owen Burnett, Loki.

anon text;

[wasthemaster]

You haven't been here long, have you?
Out of curiosity, what power is it that you possess? Loki's...telepathy or telekinesis, correct?

[trust_us]

Well, there wasn't much time for it at home, but...dancing? Anything with music. It was rare to hear music, so hearing it now is something I don't think I could ever take for granted. Or playing with kids.

Otherwise, any time off was wonderful. I didn't care what I was doing then, really.

[Most of it was spent sleeping....]

Petra Ral, Sigyn.

[wasthemaster]

What sort of world did you live in that music wasn't readily available to you? Or time off for that matter.

I like to be with the animals, over the park. I run around a lot, at full speed when I can, and I track animals and streams, and I learn about the terrain. I like to learn about the territories the animals here have formed and how they interact with each other.

I'm trying to hunt, but it's hard in this form. Still, it's fun.


Ame, Heimdall.

anon text.

[wasthemaster]

[...now that's an answer.]

Obviously the first question is what sort of form are you used to having...but more importantly, does that mean you prefer animals over people?

[kidder]

I jump off clocktowers into haystacks.

J. Kidd, Heimdall.

[nukeoleptic]

I like to draw to pass time.

Alice Liddell, Hel.

[wasthemaster]

Believe you're the first one from Hel to respond thus far.

What sort of things do you draw, Alice?

[bossily]

Speak to people I otherwise wouldn't get the chance to, I suppose.

Clara Oswald, Sigyn.

[wasthemaster]

And have you found any sort of value speaking to these people?

[unsparing]

Didn't you hear?
Fighting with gods or giants was the new fun
Or else it had something to do with unicorns and rainbows

- Survivor; Boston.

[wasthemaster]

What is it with people and unicorns in this place? [Ellie mentioned them to him a short time ago. It was a bizarre question.]

Also that doesn't answer the second requirement. Try again.

[hollowchild]

Spar, read, climb things, talk to people, draw sometimes. It seems to me that fun is a rather personal concept though. I know several people whose fun seems to be their work.

Sophie, of Hel

anon text

[wasthemaster]

Well, Sophie of Hel, I believe you might have actually tapped into something quite profound. Though I have to question what sort of life you lead to believe that sparring is on the same line of fun as talking to people.

[fourteenthlight]

I haven't been here long, but where I come from entertainment is banned. I still listened to 00.

A-ah, this is Atsuko Maeda the 14th of Freyr.

[wasthemaster]

The 14th? Can't your family come up with anything more creative?

What's 00? Why was entertainment banned?

[therightchoice]

i just got here a few days ago. i like to explore the city but i really like to draw even tho i'm not good at it.

Jesse, Freyr

anon text

[wasthemaster]

Surprisingly there is still a bit of ground to cover even if the city seems sort of small after a while. Were the gods decent enough to provide you with the power that drawing's actually useful for?

[text]

[bonnypiperlad]

play the pipes. spend time with my friends. explore. try and figure out this network-thing.

well maybe not that last one so much. whats so important about knowing this anyway?

jamie mccrimmon - thor

[wasthemaster]

Can't a person simply ask for the sake of asking without a real sense of importance to it?

Thor. Really? [Because, to him, those things don't add up to being one of Thor's.]

Text

[seethelanterns]

Painting! And sewing, cooking, baking, chess, reading, guitar, pottery. A lot of things really.

Oh! And my name is Rapunzel, I'm in Freyr.

anon text

[wasthemaster]

So really what you're saying is that practically everything is fun for you, isn't it? [Sorry, Rapunzel, he will never not think you're kind of adorable.]

[timaeus_testified]

[He's leaving off the color right now.]

It depends on the day. Most of the time I work on projects, also varied. It could be anything from technical work to mixing music for the hell of it.

Dirk, House of Odin.

anon text.

[wasthemaster]

And what projects are you working on now? Right now. [And furthermore, is it anything that could help him with his task...]

[Text]

[comeonthensexy]

Read. Build things. Paint. Spend time with friends and family. Travel, if I can. Cook occasionally. Etcetera, etcetera.

The Doctor (eleventh), Sigyn.

[wasthemaster]

[Rrrrgh Eleven. Eleven, he might have to de-anon later to ask about space and spatial awareness but for now. Alas.]

Can one really do a lot of traveling while we're here?

[Each line is a new message. So sorry.]

playing the violin, making costumes, cooking, fishing, using my power. Hamel, baldr

I hit people with water balloons the other day that was fun too!!!

why won’t you say your name

anon text

[wasthemaster]

[Huh. The first from his own house.]

I don't think it's very relevant, to be honest.

You were hitting people with water balloons? Where the hell does one get water balloons?

[itgirl]

Well I'm new but the way my thinking goes - we're saving the world, we get a party.

Lydia Martin, Odin.

[ hey, Draco. ]

anon text

[wasthemaster]

[...well aren't you cute.]

You. I think I like your thinking, to be honest. I've been here far too long to keep doing this without some form of reward.

Though to be fair I wasn't aware those of Odin's actually knew what a party was.

Find a giant and behead it.

Hoping it would be their queen one day.

[...Morgana. He has a bit of a moment actually laughing on his end of the line. He knew he liked her for some reason.]

You really don't hold back, do you? I'm not sure if I'm impressed or a bit worried.
