Starter Call

Like this post if you want a bored Norn to come and bother you. If you're a multimuse, please specify who.

"Oh, I do. But you assume that I would put the effort into trying to fix such a thing. It is much easier to just kick the machine."

She was just busy looking at her boot as she spoke to him, to check if the magical leather somehow got a scuff on it from decimating the side of the vending machine.

Skuld's face was a blank mask, but it was her eyes that gave away the turmoil of confusion in her. Disappointment, a little bit of pity and a metric ton of bafflement.

Silently she turned to face the vending machine, looking at it. A simple glass panel showed the rows upon rows of drinks, including the lodged drink that Sigmund desired trapped in the plastic jaws of the container's slot.

In one fluid motion, she delivered a swift and powerful SLAM with one of her legs into the side of the vending machine. It rattled, cans and bottles falling out of the slots as the side of the machine dented.

But alas, the drink Sigmund wanted was still lodged within its slot, unmoving like a stone monolith.

"Shame. Looks like the drink you desired is still held by this 'ferocious' metal case."

[valkyroffate]

It occurs to me that both the Norns and the Fates (Moirai) of Greek Myth are practically the same entity in their roles, even with different myths behind them.

Does this mean that Skuld probably gets bothered by Greek servants from time to time? Maybe.

Does this mean that Skuld and Atropos are the same? Dunno, probably.

If Chaldea somehow bullshited their way into summing the Moirai, would Skuld and Atropos cause problems for Chaldea? Abso-fucking-lutely.

[valkyroffate]

"True. These scripts choose to show a fiction, or perhaps an aspect of reality. Look here upon Chaldea for such a thing. Look upon Siegfried and Sigurd. Both are aspects of the same story, the warrior who slew a dragon to claim its cursed gold. This gold is what cause pain and tragedy in their lives until the very end."

She SNAPPED shut the manuscript, letting the sound bounce through Chaldea's halls.

"Though to answer your question, curiosity it why I simply borrow from you writers. I wish to see why you write, to see how mortals write such tragedies."

Without a word, she simply proffered the manuscript back towards him.

"A tragedy is what makes a man. It builds upon the foundation of the soul, presenting them challenges. One can not go through life without experiencing such things. Without it, one can not grow" She mused, fingers flipping through the latest 'borrowed' manuscript.

Sigmund, a hero in his own right and father to Sigurd. The man who claimed the demonic blade Garm after Odin had left it impaled in the offspring-trunk tree. A man who has many stories and legends to his name before his sword had even been passed to the hands of his son.

...Was being defeated by a vending machine. And he had called her, one of the Norns to help him.

"You call upon me...to get you a drink from this machine" She deadpanned "I should inflict some minor tragedy upon you...but this seems to be adequate so far."

@valkyroffate

"as one who enjoys tragedies -- i've seen your mane on requisitions from the library system -- i do have important questions for you. firstly, what is it you most seek from those tragedies?" he's cornered her, a little bit. a playwright in need will not be deterred.

[valkyroffate]

Ever since the youngest Norn had been summoned to Chaldea, it was apparent she was not used to others asking her to do tasks. Some of these tasks were from the staff, others from servants. Some of the tasks were to help with magical supports while others ended up inquiring about fate. It wasn't uncommon for the goddess to deny the requests on her fickle whims. Though there was always one person whom she never denied a request for help from.

The door to her chamber opened up, the lithe purpled haired goddess standing there. She was clad in both the purple dress and hints of armor that echoed the styling of Bryhild and the other Valkyrie's summoned to Chaldea. Her eyes flickered up as down the king's armored form, taking in each subtle shift of weight upon the armor.

"Of course. Our Master requests my aid, who am I to deny them?" She asked, stepping out and letting the door seal itself shut behind her. She fell into step with Artoria. "Tell me, what is it that our Master is in need of my service for today?"

@valkyroffate

"Lady Skuld, are you ready to go?" Her knock on the other servant's door is polite but loud enough to make sure its head the first time. Three knocks echo in the deserted hallway, her armor making a low noise as she shifts her weight from one leg to the other.

Normally, most servants were on time when assigned to go on a expedition but the more laidback ones required some supervision. She had volunteered to go retrieve the other despite not knowing much about her.

Gods and Goddesses were a thing to be wary about as their temperament would be different from the usual servants that were normally summoned. Many often were friendly at least under their Master--still, she's aware that they would desire a certain amount of respect when spoken too.

"If you don't wish to attend, I can pass on the message for you."

A familiar face after all of this, though he wonders if she recognizes the same. After all staying in valhalla and preparing for the end times means constant training with valkyries, to a point until they are forced to quest for stronger foes.

"I seek assistance. This contraption refuses to give me my beverage, despite having paid it."

the vending machine broke.

I could look at giving Skuld proper stats and whatnot.

But since she's summoned as a Valkyrie, it be funny if she has the exact same stat line as the other Valkys of Chaldea (sans Brynhildr).

A rank strength, LETS GO-

[valkyroffate]

me: Skuld comforting a dying servant in a singularity, promising to see them off to the halls of Valhalla to go and rest.

Also me: Summer Skuld summoned with one of those inflatable tube rings that had a mascot animal head on it, but the tube ring is Nidhogg. No, she has no clue why Nidhogg was chained summoned with her in a summer saint graphs and she's equally as confused as as you are.

Norn Musings

Seeing as Skuld is summoned as a Valkyrie, or atleast in the vessel of one, probably means she has a comparable strength stat to them.

So you'd probably see her casting runes and doing graceful magic and the like...only to DROPKICK someone.
