I wonder what conversations they had in that cave.

I wonder if when Sigyn's arms shook and burned, when stinging sweat dripped into her eyes, if Loki sung her stories and spun her winding jokes to make her laugh.

I wonder if she sang back to him as she had to remove the bowl to empty it, if she reminded him of fields of flowers and the sun on their skin, of days without pain, and soothed him through the worst of his trembling.

I wonder if they cried together, if Loki couldn't help wrapping his fingers around his bindings, getting as close to his child as he could. I wonder if they spent hours, silent, sitting together in their grief.

I wonder if they laughed together, if they reminisced in the past and planned for the future, if they knew that this would not be forever.

I wonder if they processed anger together, if they softened together, so they knew that one day in the far future, they would be able to forgive if not forget.

idk i just wonder about them a lot

The other day, in a server I'm in, someone described Loki's methods as "I'm going to break your bone again so that it heals right this time", and I've just been thinking about that a lot.

Solstice is almost here :> Been meaning to do a Loki solstice piece between doing Warhead pages and the only time I managed to find was before and after I was sick with the flu for a week.

These will be available as a small print on my Etsy, as soon as I get proofs back from the printer.

hand drawn- no a i used :>

I wish to die in the comfort of knowing that I truly lived.

Hel, you’ve taught me that life thrives in the presence of death. Embrace my efforts to live without regrets.

Deity Blurb 02 - Máni

Máni is heathen god of the Moon. He is both the personification and charioteer of the Moon. He is the brother of Sól, goddess of the Sun.

Just like Sól, Máni's origins in the myths are disputed. I've already gone over them in the post about Sól, which can be found here.

Máni is said to be chased by the wolf Hati Hrođvitnisson, son of Fenrir. Máni will be consumed at Ragnarök by Hati.

Within my personal experience of working with Máni, he presents himself as a soothing and calm presence. Máni is gentle and kind, but he is not afraid of fighting for things he believes must be fought for. He loves children dearly. I also understand Máni as being a trans man.

Offerings to Máni may include:

marshmallows

beaded jewelry

jangles

jasmine

mugwort

blue sea glass

thyme

moonstone

labradorite

One may decorate an altar to Máni with dark blue, silver, black, or purple ribbons or buttons, Moon imagery, lavender, an open offering bowl, white, black, or blue candles, stone circles, time pieces or calendars.

Some devotional acts to Máni may include volunteer work or donations that benefit the mentally ill or abused children, having patience with small children, shadow work, and spellwork involving increase or decrease, or even healing magick.

Some kennings of Máni include Man of the Moon, Charioteer of the Moon, Son of Mundilfæri, Hati's chase.

Hail Máni!
