5th Spark || [Video]
[The Travelers get a good view of Merlin's room when the video starts and--hang on, what's...that? No, your eyes do not deceive you. Where there was only one grumpy owl before, there are now about ten of varying sizes, perched all around the room. A few ruffle their feathers, as if in greeting. Despite the feathery chaos behind him, Merlin seems to be perfectly fine, and isn't paying them any attention at all.]
I think, between the dragon, the ice faeries, and the stabbings, the city's gotten pretty dangerous recently. I don't know how getting hurt by a good friend or family member fits into all this, but the ice faeries weren't that much of a surprise, if you think about what Odin told us. [Here, he picks up a sheet of paper and glances at it before continuing.] There's Muspellheim with the fire king Surt--he's the one who sent the dragon--and there's Thrymheim with the frost queen Thiazi. We didn't get a declaration of war from the queen like with the dragon, but the ice faeries are probably close enough.
Between all that's happened, it looks like everyone's going to be affected. I mean, they weren't exactly choosy about the people they were targeting. You think it'd be a good idea if we built some sort of fort for the people who don't want to fight? People usually go to the hospital for shelter, but we've gotten overwhelmed there nearly every single time something happens. There's just too many of us here now.
[Merlin frowns down at the paper again.] Oh yeah, there's a few of us who would teach newcomers how to use their abilities, in case any of you need it. More people willing to help us with that would be great--just the god's abilities, though. If you want lessons for weapon-use, you'll be wanting to see Arthur Pendragon for that. Or Albion--er...England, I mean. I think they're looking for some help with The Citadel, too.
Private to Sam Winchester:
Hey, Odin mentioned another city--Utgard. It looks like the natives are allowed to go there, but none of us are. Know anything about it?
Private to Lucifer:
When did you want to meet again?

Was just...wondering. You know. If you and Arthur were going to use your abilities at all.
no subject
I don't think I've quite got used to the idea yet. I haven't spoken to Arthur about it.
no subject
He might get used to magic eventually, but I dunno if he'd ever use his power.

I'm not sure if I've quite made myself believe in the possibility of having magic myself.

You're both in Heimdall, so those'll be easy enough to ignore.

We could always figure it out later, if either of you...you know. Want to know.
no subject
appreciated.
no subject
Right then. [He abruptly sits up.] It looks like we'll all be busy soon. You and Arthur teaching lessons over at the Citadel, me working with the others.
no subject
[Wry look.]
I imagine it's the same for you.
