suomi_thunderAarne hadn't celebrated holidays properly in over a year which left him feeling disconnected. Giant bonfires in the streets and rampant reindeer were frowned upon in most civilized cities, unless of course the punks were involved, then that was arson not celebrations.. ok, well for the punks it was a celebration but not for a Saami.
In the Nexus though, oh here he could do whatever he wanted, or that was what he had learned in his few visits. He had been planning and cooking and collecting. The gods probably don't even know where he stirred up reindeer from in the Nexus but he has and Mouka was happy to have a job keeping them corralled. His usual rock gear is augmented with his family necklace and oddly doesn't look too out of place with rest of his wildness.
He didn't have a lot but parties always started this way. The host had some things and then people came and brought more booze and food, ordering all kinds of things. Aarne did bring Mead, alcoholic and non-alcoholic, and a a bunch of lemon tippaleipä batter. He had cooked some but this was something he could show visitors how to make on their own. The honey mead based sugar in a large bowl. Strips of dried reindeer meat and juustoleipä, a Finnish reindeer milk cheese, are out on the table too. There are fruits; strawberries, apples, and nuts which were common as well as a cream from reindeer milk traditional to the culture and nearly like unfermented yogurt.
That all done he looked to the huge pile of logs that he had gotten from various people around the Nexus. The Sami added leaves to it to create smoke at first to attract others. Before lighting it he put up a banner of hide dedicated to the Akka, the female fertility spirits, decorated with the same imagery as his traditional drum. It was sentimental, the first drum he ever learned to play.
Drum in hand he poured kerosene on the log pile and lit it. The reindeer spooked at the sudden fire but soon calmed, especially when the tall Fin went among them.

on 2021-05-05 03:40 am (UTC)Shockwave was a terrible person. He made me out of bits of my mother she left behind. There's another one too, called Catgut.
The people I lived with after him were nice, but Mother becomes livid with rage about it when she looks at my brands. She says I'm too young to have those. But the MTOs were all younger than me. She says they didn't get a real choice, either, and that was wrong too.
Then she points to Lotor and says that he wears a badge on his clothes, but he doesn't have a permanent one. Are you going to get a permanent mark on your skin?
Then Esmeral says that everyone on her planet is a Decepticon from birth and asks Mother if that's so wrong, and if the real problem isn't that the people I stayed with for a while were Autobots.
She curls up next to Ben.
I'm taking a break from the dancing. Look at Howlback and Glit and my mother and Soundwave.
Soundwave thinks he might actually be my father, but he won't say so because he's not sure.
Soundwave's mask and visor are off. He is playing music along with the others who are playing various instruments, but at the same time he is dancing in a small area, careful to keep himself out of the foot traffic, while Glit and Howlback dance and leap the bonfire. He is dancing with Ravage, though none of Ravage's paws ever touch the ground; he whirls her around in his arms, then lets her swing around his arms and shoulders like he's scaffolding, or hold his hands and dance in arcs around and above his head and chest.
