hh_mirror((The Shoggies have decided it is 'Cthulhoo Day' because in the HPL story "The Call of Cthulhu, April 25th is the date on which Cthulhu woke up to munch on a few fishermen. None of the food at the party is necessarily hexed, unless you feel like your characters finding something a house-elf got creative with, or any magical products the Shoggies might have brought back from Hogsmeade. Your characters don't have to interact with the Shoggies if they don't want to, of course. =D They're just all over the tower, since there's lots of them.))
((Gets NSFW by the end of the Dethklok sub-thread.))
The Shoggies weren't usually aware of dates, but, they were sensitive to the stars and their varying degrees of rightness. And, today, Shoggy 10 awoke from whatever dreams it was that Shoggies had during whatever it was that passed for Shoggy sleep. "Oh my Great Cthulhoo!" it announced loudly, waking Shoggies 3, 4.6, and 18, who all simultaneously popped out of their drawers and annouced, "It's Cthulhoo Day!" For, the Shoggies had all realized that on this date 85 years ago, sunken R'lyeh had briefly arisen, and Great Cthulhu had eaten a few fishermen. This was a day to celebrate! "We gots to have a party!" insisted Shoggy 3, and the others agreed enthusiastically. They squelched down from their drawers and set out to find the rest of the Hogwarts Shoggies.
It was only a couple hours later that the first of the weird signs started appearing in the halls. Shoggies 3, 4.6, 10, and 18 had suggested to the others that they use construction paper and paint to make their party announcements, since it would be faster than carving them out of stone, and so, they had. The signs were all quite colourful, and had been decorated with paintings of a corpulent, squid-headed creature with small wings, often shown with a handful of tiny little men splattered in red paint, and the words 'yum yum'. The signs all said basically the same thing, and it was evident from the grammar that Toki and Skwisgaar's Shoggies had done most of the lettering. The lettering was quite crude, as, Shoggies were used to complicated hieroglyphs, and not the simplistic shapes of the alphabet.
IT IS CTHULHOO DAY! Comes to our party and celebrates!
The party is ats Andy's McGraw Tower ons the grounds.
Comes when it gets dark! Brings a sacrifice if you wants!
Don't worry, we cans say Fhtagn right!
There wills be chickens and beer and candy and sandwiches ands other foods.
It'll be SOOO COOL!
By early evening, the Shoggies had everything ready for the party, and gathered it all together at the unholy version of McGraw tower which had graced the campus since they'd transported it from the past for Andy's Christmas present. The chimes of the mostly-manifest tower were playing an eerie, unnatural music. House-elves had helped the Shoggies with the food, and so there was beer (ridiculous quantities of it, as, the Shoggies had learned about beer from Nathan Explosion), and there was chicken, and there were sandwiches as promised- eyeball sandwiches were the Shoggies' current favorite, so most were these. A close examination would reveal that the eyesalls were some sort of wizarding candy. There was also a huge heap of other wizarding candies, as Shoggy 10 had had talked its "Master Toki-Dad" into giving them the galleons to send a delegation of Shoggies to Hogsmeade. Some of the less civilized Hogwarts Shoggies had brought their contributions to the party as well, which included a dead acromantula brought by those who usually stayed with Smaug. It was arranged as a sort of centerpiece for everything else, lying on its back with its legs in the air. They'd painted a large mural one one wall, of the same squid-headed creature eating little men from a boat.
Once the Shoggies had everything arranged, some of them waited expectantly for partygoers. Some of them had already been distracted by the piles of food, and yet others had wandered off into the rather Escher-esque staircases of the tower.

Date: 2010-04-12 01:54 am (UTC)Though, little human/mer-creature babies with fu manchu-like catfish whiskers would be pretty cute. Cute enough to eat.
Just like the changed texture of his skin, being touched felt different too. He was more aware of Toki's body heat, even in the tips of his fingers, as Toki petted him. Being touched in his present form was no less pleasurable than it had been as a human, and he soon stretched out his arms in front of him, leaning his head against one, and had an unfocused look as he simply enjoyed the physical contact. Toki's curiosity wasn't the only thing that was growing, judging by what he could feel happening down below. He had the distinct impression of something sliding out of his body from somewhere within the vicinity of where his genitals would be as a human, and the chilly mud he was lying in didn't seem to affect it any. Actually it kind of felt... good, against -- oh. Well. Perhaps that was one mystery solved. He was suddenly glad that he was lying on his stomach.
He wasn't paying much mind to anything going on around him, and as a result got smacked by one of the Shoggies' flying fish before he could even react. The nictitating membranes that had been covering his eyes and dimming their luminescence retracted when he blinked, and he was able to easily catch the next Accio'd fish that flew his way, then ate it in a few bites, bones and all. "Ja, theys pretty smarts littles goofballs," he agreed with Toki, just as Pickles was sent sprawling and landed in his arms. There was a definite urge to bite the rather delectable looking fleshy parts of the drummer's face, but Pickles luckily moved before he could contemplate that line of thought further. Being handed a kebab was also a good distraction.
Skwisgaar involuntarily shuddered when he pulled himself closer to the fire, as the mud offered a strangely pleasant mixture of friction and suction against his... underside. He gave Toki a curious look but said nothing as he held his kebab above the fire. Raw fish still sounded better to him, but he didn't want to be left out. "Maybe Níðhöggr would goes into de castle and starts eating everyone likes sardines ins de cans," he said with interest. "Dats would be really funny. I tells it to hims later. He does eats dead peoples too, and de worlds tree, downs in de roots."

Date: 2010-04-12 10:48 am (UTC)Toki was laughing so hard when Pickles was smacked with a fish and fell on Skwisgaar that he almost didn't register his comment. It took him a moment before he could stop laughing long enough to tell him, "He's not my pets, he's still Skwisgaar! He's nots a dolphins or anything, he's stills a person! A person whats a fish!" Toki had noted that Skwisgaar seemed displeased with Nathan's 'Flipper' comments, and that he'd seemed to have slight reservations about an 'aquarium', at least when put in such terms. So, Toki had to come to his defense, in the overly-earnest way he tended towards.
His eyes followed Pickle's fiery kebab toward the lake, where Nidhögg was still surfaced, and started in on a fresh beer. Just a couple more, and, he figured he'd forget about the temperature. Despite the fact that Nidhögg had apparently eaten a bunch of half-humanoids, Toki rather wanted to try and say hello, presuming that since Skwisgaar seemed to know him, the dragon wouldn't think of him as lunch. Toki contemplated his kebab, and suggested, "Maybe the dragon'll just haves the house-elves brings him stuff. Or just eats the house-elves. But, he wouldn'ts be much of a pal if he ate everyones in the castle. Just the ones what suck." Toki had made a few friends apart from Dethklok, but other than them, he didn't care much who Nidhögg ate.
As Skwisgaar was lying on his stomach in the mud, Toki didn't realize that finding out the answer to this question might have been a relatively simple matter of flipping Skwisgaar over. He'd shifted from exploring Skwisgaar new skin and back fin to the fins along his head, and then pulled his wet hair back to very lightly stroke his gills, watching for any signs of discomfort. As, it did seem as if it might be uncomfortable to have fluttering slashes in one's neck. He was distracted from this by being smacked with a flying trout, which landed in the mud beside him, still flopping around. He picked it up and offered it to Skwisgaar, supposing that at the moment, it was like giving him candy or something. Candy for shark-guys. The fish shower was slowing down, however, as Shoggies had a rather short attention span, and, there were junk food kebabs to be devoured. They would, however, remember their new fish summoning skill, and it would indeed take a couple hours for them to tire of it for the night.

Date: 2010-04-12 11:24 pm (UTC)Pickles also apparently often suffers from whiskeydick—something which his mun wishes more RPers embraced for the lulz and, y'know, realism—and is probably too high most the time to care who he's getting laid by, if he can even manage to get it up in the first place.
Perhaps there could be a bad-sex band threesome one day.
Pickles just grinned dopily and laughed at Toki's suggestion that he wanted kids—hell, he'd done so many hard drugs for most his life he had to be sterile by now—and raised his beer in a toast. "Naw, chief. Never wanted kids. Annoying little screaming, puking shit factories," he said, laughing harder. "Kinda like musicians! Gahd, who'd wanna raise mini-us-es?" Besides Ofdensen, of course, considering he was already their babysitter. "But if you an' Skwisgaar are gonna go make some caviar, ya gahtta share, doods."
Nathan scowled at what Toki said, but after a moment looked strangely thoughtful as he checked on the cooking fish and turned a few on the coals. Kids just seemed like way too much work, then they grew up to hate you anyway. Which was of course brutal, but what was the point? Maybe Skwisgaar and Toki had the right idea, when they'd adopted the Shoggies.
"I still think we should do the tour thing, with the fish tank on stage," Nathan said without looking away from the cooking fish. Toki's looked just right by then, so he pulled it off the coals and tossed it to him, the foil wrap preventing it from spilling. "And a shark-guy would be a brutal pet..."
"Jest needs a collar an' leash," Pickles helpfully suggested, snickering. "Dood, pritty much all the people here suck and should git eaten. 'Cept for us." He waved his kebab around until the flames had mostly gone out, and slid several of the items together before taking a bite. Yum, marshmallow-covered-hotdog-eyeball sandwich. "Though," he said as he looked around at the others, "you guys probably do all suck... a laht..." He mimed giving a blowjob (rather accurately) and started laughing again.
Nathan just rolled his eyes. Once the rest of the fish looked done, he passed each person and Shoggy one, then grabbed a few more beers and went to sit by Ofdensen, holding his kebab above the fire. He raised an eyebrow at how Toki and Skwisgaar were acting, but didn't say anything. At least they weren't humping each other in front of everyone. Yet.

Date: 2010-04-12 11:38 pm (UTC)well, the mun did once upon a time think Ofdensen had a crush on Pickles during the SnB days...He snorted. "Groupies. Except they just want to say they're raising 'fill-in-the-blank's' child, not because they actually give a damn about him. Thank god for paternity waivers." He finished off his beer and opened another one, snuggling into Nathan a bit, chewing on fish.
"You know, I think I would actually enjoy watching Nidhogg eating people," he said idly, looking out toward the lake.
"Honestly, the only problem I see with your ideas is we don't know how long this lasts. As much publicity as we'd get for this, it'd be...inconvenient if he changed back to normal mid-concert."

Date: 2010-04-13 03:09 am (UTC)Who didn't have a crush on Pickles during his SnB days?Skwisgaar was still annoyed that half the band seemed set on keeping him as a pet sideshow act, but was glad Toki at least realised he was still himself, just part fish now. If anyone wanted to treat him like a dumb animal, he could certainly start acting the part and drum up business for the Hospital Wing. "Mine caviar woulds be too expensives for yous," he said dismissively. "It would be a millions billions dollars for ones spoonsful, because it ams de most metals caviar ever. Bets de dumb dildos fans would buys it. Then wes could switch it fors de cheap shit and theys wouldn't even knows de difference."
He almost wouldn't mind the whole shitting out eggs part if he could actually profit from it like that, and then get to cannibalise his own spawn. Good song inspiration.
"Yous just don'ts want him to eats your Elfy guy all up," he teased Toki. Or Sunflora, presumably, whose art was still hanging on their bedroom wall. There were a few people and one person-country Skwisgaar might also be sorry to see eaten, but he didn't feel like pointing that out.
Breathing remained an automatic reflex for him, so he wasn't aware of his gills until he felt Toki touching them. His gill slits were delicate in comparison with the rest of his skin, and highly sensitive, he found out -- it was almost unpleasant at first and he instinctively wanted to pull away, and had it been anyone but Toki they would have already lost their hand, but as he began to get used to the almost ticklish sensation, he really liked it. Really liked it. Still lying on his stomach and taking care not to expose his underside, he curled his lower body and tail around Toki (unwittingly providing him a seat, if he didn't mind his pants getting wet), falling into another of those unfocused stupors as he was touched.
Maybe gill-play was mer-creature... foreplay.
It took him a few seconds to notice the trout being offered to him, and when he did, he carefully ate it from Toki's hand, and returned Nathan's raised eyebrow with one of his own as Ofdensen snuggled up with the singer. The cooked fish didn't smell nearly as appetising as the trout he'd just had, but he peeled back the foil and nibbled at it anyway. Deciding it wasn't all that bad, he finished it in a few bites and then started on his junk food kebab, offering most of the sugary items to the Shoggies. The toasted eyeball sandwich was better than he'd thought it would be, but half was enough for him, so the rest also went to the Shoggies. "Yous goofballs are betters than a garbage disposals thing," he told them, clearly proud of this fact. "Have yous ever swims drunk before?" he asked Toki, noting how much he was drinking. "Since I breathes waters now, if yous pukes in de lakes, I breathes your puke. Maybe yous tries not to puke, ja?"

Date: 2010-04-13 09:43 am (UTC)Toki caught the foil-wrapped fish Nathan caught him, flashing him a grin that turned into a somewhat cranky look as he mentioned Skwisgaar as a pet again. Pickles earned another look from Toki a moment later, when he mentioned putting a collar and leash on him. If anyone was going to put such things on Skwisgaar, it was him who got to! "He's nots your fish-guy, you don't gets to put any collars and leashes ons him! Skwisgaar's mys fish-guy what's still people," Toki insisted, a bit drunkenly. The beers he'd been drinking were starting to catch up with him, and, he thought he was getting pretty close to being able to ignore the lake. That he might not feel cold didn't guarantee a lack of hypothermia, but, he was also getting a bit too plastered to worry about that, too. He was also getting to the point of inebriated where he failed to be embarrassed at Pickles' teasing, and gave him a goofy grin as he told him, "We sucks real good, and, you don'ts get to find out!"
"But I don't wants the dragon to eats the nice Elfy guy, he's our friend! Ands there's Sunflora, mys flower friend, ands my dinosaur friend, and there's Yoda whats I told you about, he's nice too. Ands there's your countries friend, ands the pervert guns-teacher ands his cannibal vampire husband, and there's the clowns-teacher withs the potions class, ands there's lots of Shoggies that don't lives with us, and I wouldn'ts want them eaten eithers." Although Toki had his episodes of ultraviolence, his overall brutality level was often questionable, and this was one of those moments. Toki didn't mind random atrocities afflicting a bunch of people he didn't know, but once he knew people and didn't think they were 'dildos', it was different. "Buts the dragon can eats the rest of them," he made sure to add, not wanting Skwisgaar and the rest to find his attitude about Nidhögg going on a school-eating rampage to be entirely not-metal.
Toki made sure to wipe the traces of fish guts off his hand before opening his own foil-wrapped fish. He looked over to Nathan briefly, telling him, "Thanks you fors the cooking!" and then giving him a rather funny look, as he'd noted their 'butler' snuggling up to him. He snuggled into Skwisgaar's curled tail, not minding the damp that soaked through his suit, which was definitely ruined by now anyway. It appeared he'd have to get used to the wet, anyway, for however long Skwisgaar's transformation lasted. He decided that the cooked fish was actually pretty damn good, and finished it off before turning his attention to the junk food kebab. He ended up passing about half of it to the Shoggies, since it was awfully hard to resist their hopeful, staring eyes. "They's the best children," Toki agreed with Skwsigaar, contemplating whether he'd ever swam drunk. "Probablies? When we wents on vacations to the beach, I did it lots I think." It seemed logical- they'd been at the beach, he'd been drunk, and there was water. "And I'm not so drunks I'm goings to puke, just not goings to freeze. And even if I do pukes in the lake, you's been breathing alls the fish pee ins it already." Tossing aside his empty kebab he returned to lightly stroking Skwisgaar's gills, having quite enjoyed his reaction to it.
no subject
Date: 2010-04-13 11:17 pm (UTC)This of course interested Nathan, who pulled out his voice recorder and muttered something about cannibal shark-guys into it, a song idea he'd flesh out later. Murmaider III, maybe. "I wonder if it hurts," he said afterward. "Like... a really bad stomach ache. To feel that. Baby sharks eating each other in your gut." He had a slightly goofy, drunken expression as he patted Ofdensen's stomach.
Pickles, who had more alcohol than blood in him by that point, just cracked up at Toki's indignation, only laughing harder at him cheerfully admitting to sucking dick. "Don't worry, he's all yers to do theat kinky shark bondage with. You'll probably need stitches if ya try to suck spiky dicks, y'know."
As Toki proceeded to list half the school as apparently not sucking, Pickles continued to look amused, while Nathan looked exasperated about Toki's utter non-brutality. He grunted and downed the rest of his beer. "Well, the dinosaur is pretty cool," Nathan reluctantly admitted. "And the Shoggies, but I doubt being eaten by a dragon would hurt them anyway. But who gives a shit about the jackoff professors and their gay husbands? That's... really not metal." He smirked. "Would've been funny if Smaug had eaten them. Too bad he didn't."
"I woulda liked to see it," Pickles said and sighed, not elaborating on why he'd disappeared for so many months before mysteriously reappearing just before they'd returned home. He was quickly distracted by all the cuddling going on around him, decided he needed in on it, and drunkenly cuddled up next to Toki on the side opposite Skwisgaar's bitey end, and thus finally realised what the Scandinavians had been discussing between themselves.
"Whaaat? Yer goin' swimming in the lake?" Pickles asked. "You'll freeze yer balls off, dood. There's probably ice in there. Fine fer shark doods, not so great fer the resta us."
"Toki's trying to drown himself?" Nathan asked, taking a sudden interest in their conversation. "Brutal." He thought it over, and after a moment decided, "But, uh, don't. Do it. Bad for the band. Can't you get a kiddie pool or something?"
"There's this one room in the castle theat'll give ya whatever ya want," Pickles added, "just gahtta make sure no one else is usin' it and kick 'em out if they are." Thus probably explaining the mystery of where he'd been for months.
no subject
Date: 2010-04-13 11:58 pm (UTC)Toki. He was probably just a kid."No swimming drunk," Ofdensen vetoed that right out. "None of us is sober enough to revive you if you drown accidentally. Well, you are," he gestured to Skwisgaar with a kebab, "but can you even do that right now? You have gills."
He rolled his eyes at Toki's declaration that they suck good. He didn't care that they were sleeping with each other, but he did not want to know the details of their sex lives.
Ofdensen pulled away slightly as Nathan patted his stomach. "Nein. No shark babies cannabalizing. Too much like that one movie. That movie was creepy." He shuddered, remembering it.
He looked back out over the lake, a speculating look in his eyes. "I wonder...if Smaug and Nidhogg fought, who'd win?"
no subject
Date: 2010-04-14 02:38 am (UTC)Someone mentioned baby Toki? (http://pics.livejournal.com/best_guitarist/pic/00092859)"I'ms not even a ladys shark," Skwisgaar insisted irritably. And he apparently had no less than three "dicks" (one actual dick and two claspers, assuming they even functioned) to prove it, not that he intended to unless he and Toki could ever work out a way to have sex. It wasn't looking very promising, but on the upside, as Ofdensen had pointed out, maybe his transformation wouldn't last very long. "Maybe we plays with collars and leashes later, eh?" he said to Toki with a smirk, no longer trying to keep his voice down. He had an expression somewhere between Nathan's and Pickles' as Toki listed all the people he didn't want to see eaten
and Toki even forgot about his giant literally-metal horse friend, Francium, and he thought it was a good time to drop the subject before Toki could embarrass himself further."Ja, well, de fishes wes all ate was fulls of fish piss and shit anysway I bet. Fish piss ams natural in de waters," he reasoned, moving to lay his head in Toki's lap. "Throws up full of hotdogs and candies ain't." The petting was slowly putting him to sleep, and if not for their conversation he probably would have been. He jerked back to full alertness when he felt Pickles making himself at home next to Toki and against his tail. Grumbling, he raised the very end of his tail and gave the drummer a shove, trying to push him away without actually hurting him -- Skwisgaar was a bit more aware of his own strength now.
He would have assumed the room was a drug-induced hallucination of Pickles' if not for the posters he'd noticed around the school, advertising such and such event held in the Room of Requirement. Which he'd then checked out himself, and had found it to be a fully furnished studio, and another time the interior had appeared to be a retirement home, but sadly lacking GMILFs. He was sure he'd mentioned it to Nathan at some point.
"I'm nots going to lives in no dildos room de whole school uses," he said with a sneer. "I'm nots a circus things for people to stares at. I wants to stays in my room. And I wouldn't lets Toki drowns." The sneer dissolved into a resigned expression as he looked up at Toki, remembering how much he'd shivered just from their brief snow war last year. "Maybe they's right," he said quietly to Toki, realising it was probably selfish to expect him to enjoy the icy lake when he wasn't also a shark-guy. "You mights get sick if yous stays in too long, then wes wouldn't be ables to do anythings for a while anysway. But I need to goes back soon before I dries out again." Lying next to a fire unfortunately shortened the amount of time he could spend on land.
"Níðhöggr ams a millions billions feets long withs de acid breath," he said, following Ofdensen's look toward the lake. "Smaug breathes fires and flies reallys fast. Why woulds they fight? They should pals around. Ams de huge eagle ats de top of Yggdrasil dat Níðhöggr don'ts like."
Just like the Great Eagles of Arda fought against the Dragons, because Tolkien was such a Norse geek.no subject
Date: 2010-04-14 12:40 pm (UTC)"No one's havings any cannibals shark babies!" Toki wailed insistently, given that Skwisgaar always seemed to think that he was the one who was probably going to get knocked up. And, getting knocked up with things that were liable to cannibalize each other meant they would possibly cannibalize him too. This would be brutal, of course, but, it did sound painful. He glared at everyone except for Skwisgaar, even though he was the one most likely to inflict this undesirable fate on him. On the off chance it did happen, he supposed it would be a simple enough matter to cause an alcohol-induced abortion.
"But nots in the lake," he told Skwisgaar regarding the collars and leashes- he obviously wasn't adverse to the idea, since it was Skwisgaar's. "If we plays with collars and leashes in the lake, mights get tangled on somesthings and then I'd drown. And thats would be kind of brutal, drowning during sharks sex, but then we couldn't haves anymore." Toki was pretty inebriated by this point, and making no effort to keep his voice down. Although Ofdensen had said no swimming in the lake, Toki was of course ignoring this sensible advice, and still intended to take a dip. It was the only way he was going to get Skwisgaar to himself for a while to find out just how spiky his dick was now.
"But I want to go swimmings, it sounds fun. And then I coulds meet your dragon friend. Does he fly likes Smaug, or does he just stay ins the lake all the time?" Having ridden one dragon, Toki seemed to presumed that he could just hop on any dragon he happened to meet and go for a ride. At least, any dragon that he knew, and Skwisgaar knew him. He'd hung around for long enough now that Toki would end up adding Nidhögg to his list of friends. Had Toki been more sober, he'd have remembered the metal horse and probably a few others he considered friends. He'd also noticed the looks he'd gotten listing them, and remembered that his bandmates tended to disapprove of this very not-metal tendency of his to try and make friends. "And yeah, they shouldn't fights each others. They should go and do dragon-stuffs together, and they should takes us along!"
Toki had been playing with Skwisgaar's hair while it was in his lap, putting it in several rather lopsided braids, when the Shoggies around the campfire gave an abrupt, simultaneous exclamation of "Sooo cool!" and shot off towards the tower where they'd left the rest of the party, including the Muggles. Something very strange was happening (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/1916545.html#cutid1) was happening in that direction- indeed, what Ofdensen had been dreading. Only not accidentally. And it wasn't Dethklok. An indescribably huge, greenish, squid-headed, vaguely humanoid yet draconic creature with small vestigal wings had appeared. There was a considerably louder wailing from the distant Muggles, and a bellowing voice, which definitely said 'yum yum', amongst other things. And then, as abruptly as it had appeared, with a horrible sense of dimensional twisting and a smoky-looking cloud, the creature vanished. It was definitely the same creature that had appeared on the Shoggies' party fliers, as well as in their party decor. "Thats was the Shoggies' Great Master Guy, that they hads the party for! They put him ons the fliers, and ons the Dethtub!" Toki exclaimed, a very inappropriate reaction to having seen an unfathomably huge, mind-rending horror of unspeakable dimensions, to which weird archaic words like 'squamous' applied. After summoning a lake troll on accident and living at Hogwarts with Shoggy children, these things weren't that shocking, and Toki thought it was pretty damn cool that the Shoggies' god had actually made an appearance.

Date: 2010-04-15 01:40 am (UTC)and because socking is tiring and Jasper still has to make an appearance, but with it being likely Toki'll get hypothermia considering he's drunk... I can't see them leaving him. Suggestions? Just leave him anyway? :p))Nathan pouted when Ofdensen pulled away, and stopped patting his stomach. "You don't want to have my shark assbabies?" A term he'd picked up from Skwisgaar and Toki, of course. "What about some alligator assbabies? At least they'd be in eggs," he said teasingly, wrapping an arm around Ofdensen's waist to pull him closer, then started nuzzling at the side of his face. He was just drunk enough not to care who they inflicted their PDA on—and besides, Skwisgaar was practically blowing Toki over there. They could deal.
"You're definitely too drunk for work later," Nathan murmured hopefully, and he enjoyed thinking that he'd been terribly subtle and clever with the way he'd made sure to provide Ofdensen with a steady supply of beer all evening.
Skwisgaar's shove succeeded in pushing Pickles away—and he wound up sprawled dangerously close to the fire. He swore as he accidentally put his hand on a hot coal while trying to stand up, and once he was on his feet he flailed his burnt hand around, almost tripping right into the fire. This gave him the perfect view of Cthulhoo when he appeared. "Doods! Lookit theat! S'like a green lake troll," he exclaimed as he continued flailing around drunkenly. "We should go say hiiii!" The bellowed 'yum yum' had him cackling with glee, and he was likewise apparently immune to the lunacy he should have been afflicted with upon seeing Cthulhoo.
Nathan, who was still mostly distracted by Ofdensen, was rather more desensitised to the daily weirdness of Hogwarts and couldn't muster much more than a raised eyebrow as he watched the massive squid-guy
because Nathan's utter non-reaction to horrifying things is one of his mun's favourite things about him. "Huh," he said after Cthulhoo vanished. "Guess that means the Shoggies' party was a success."Pickles had taken off back to the main party to see Cthulhoo up close, but was unfortunately too late, and eventually came trudging back to the camp fire. "Jest missed him," he lamented. "Aw weell." He grabbed another beer and managed to drink most of it while simultaneously stripping, then whooped as he splashed out into the freezing lake, having evidently forgotten his own warnings to Toki and Ofdensen telling them no swimming drunk.
With Nidhögg giving even the monstrous Cthulhoo a run for his money in the size department, and theoretically being unable to die—he was destined to be among the few survivors of Ragnarök—very few were likely to fare well in a confrontation with him. But, he thankfully wasn't in the habit of going on homicidal rampages, and corpses were his preferred diet. Mostly he was content drifting through the lake and keeping an eye on the handful of beings at Hogwarts he'd taken an interest in, while contemplating how best to use Elric, who still owed him for that Infant Sun business.

Date: 2010-04-15 02:06 am (UTC)"I'm too busy to have shark-babies," was all the manager murmured. "And I'm not drunk enough for play." Any other response was cut off when the Great Old One made his entrance.
No, Ofdensen expected Cthulhoo. That's why the party existed, after all. He's only making sure no one else gets summoned.
He did blink when Cthulhoo arose and ate the Muggles. "Did...did he say 'yum yum'?"
It figures that that would be the only thing that surprised him.

Date: 2010-04-15 03:53 am (UTC)That's what Jasper's for, to offer use of the Baron's private pool-bath while the Skwisquarium is being built. I'd hoped for Skwis and Toki to have some time in the lake before then, but you have a point about the hypothermia worries. Whatever you guys want to do. If Toki and Pickles both need some warming up, they can always hit the Dethtub first.))
"Pffft, no cannibals shark babies then," Skwisgaar said with an amused look, glancing from Toki to Nathan and Ofdensen. "And nots in de lake," he agreed regarding collars and leashes. "Ins private," he said as though it should have been obvious, wondering how close Toki was to reaching his sloppy stage of drunkenness. Then he'd probably end up having to babysit Toki instead of trying to have sex with him, which wasn't something he looked forward to. He could pretty easily keep Toki from drowning, just as he'd said, but he'd have a harder time keeping him out of the water or warming him up if it became necessary to for any reason. He sighed, slumping further into Toki's lap. Maybe the aquarium wouldn't take very long to build, he hoped. They should get some house elves on it. "He has greats big wings too, and ams supposed to flies ats Ragnarök, withs deads people alls over him," he replied, not surprised that Toki wouldn't know this. His creepy cultist parents were obviously to blame for his lack of knowledge about Norse mythology.
He was in the middle of attempting to explain Ragnarök (and who didn't love spooky campfire stories?) when the Shoggies all quickly squelched off to greet their squid god guy. He lifted his head and pushed himself up on his arms, struggling to sit up with a lower body that wasn't cooperating very well. At least whatever he'd felt sliding out of his body -- which he was pretty sure had to be his cock, or one of them -- had withdrawn back into it, so he didn't have to worry about anyone staring at it.
He caught a glimpse of Cthulhoo before he disappeared -- he wasn't quite as cool as a green dragon would have been to Skwisgaar, but the fact he was the Shoggies' pal and looked like a gigantic tentacle monster made up for it. Cthulhoo was also a good temporary distraction from thinking about how unlikely it was he'd get laid any time soon. Dildos school with its dildos magic. "Ja, dats looked likes de tentacles monster on de fliers! And he dids say 'yum yum'," he said, amused. "Bets de Shoggies ams really happy now." And that was some consolation for what attending the party had done to him. "Hey, de Dethtubs ams almost bigs enough to swims in," he said. Toki's comment had reminded him of it.
He raised an eyebrow as Pickles ran by whooping, and figured he may as well follow, as his skin was drying out. The path he'd already made in the wet mud made it easier to sort of slither along while pulling himself back into the water. Even though they were lopsided, the braids actually helped keep his hair out of his face once he was in deep enough water to be fully submerged. He remained near the shore this time, anticipating having to keep Toki and Pickles from drowning themselves.

Date: 2010-04-16 09:04 am (UTC)Toki was beginning to think that his bandmates were a bit too fascinated with the idea of one of them getting knocked up, given that Nathan seemed to want to make assbabies with Ofdensen now. With his typical naievete, Toki still hadn't figure out what was going on between the singer and their manager, so just looked at them funny. Perhaps it was something contagious, given that Pickles had even tried to get in on the snuggling- it was one of those things that would make sense later, if he remembered it sober. He was pretty sure that most of them weren't behaving terribly metal right then, but, he also didn't care. He was far more interested in taking a swim, despite the appearances of insanely immense Great Old Ones and god-like dragons. Toki was also rather slow on the uptake regarding just who the dragon was- Nidhögg wasn't an unfamiliar name, even if his parents didn't encourage him to learn about mythology. But, the dragon literally being a mythological hadn't actually registered yet. "why's he living ins the lake, if he's the Ragnarök dragons? Shouldn't he be ins the tree or somethings like that?" If Toki did actually end up meeting Nidhögg, the poor dragon was liable to be deluged with silly questions.
"We can takes a swim, and thens go back inside and find yous somewhere to stay while I get the house-elves to makes your private aquariums. And thens we can play with the leashes." He agreed it was better somewhere private, and, wasn't quite so sloppy drunk as he could have been. He was just exuberantly drunk. "The Shoggies might can helps too, they's good at building." The Shoggies came squelching back after their 'Great Master Cthulhoo' had vanished again- it was likely to be a few hours before they calmed down enough to be set to any tasks. "That was Great Master Cthulhoo!" Shoggy 10 confirmed as they returned, explaining, "He cames to get the sacrifices! And is sooo happy now!" Like Pickles, Toki was a bit bummed that Cthulhoo hadn't hung around long enough for them to go say hi, but Shoggy 18 was already going on about how "We gots to call him agains soon! He can pal arounds with us and you cans meet him!" It didn't seem to occur to them that introducing Dethklok to their god might get their adopted family eaten.
Once Pickles had gone splashing into the lake, Toki was ready to follow suit. Swimming with his suit on would have been ridiculous, so he clumsily scrambled out of the now-ruined garment, as well as everything else he'd been wearing, except his socks, which slipped his mind. Not only had the alcohol removed any inhibitions about submerging himself in a Scottish mountain lake in early spring, it had also removed any regarding nudity. The Shoggies were at least occupied enough by going on about Cthulhoo that they didn't make any embarrassing comments regarding his 'tentacle'. He plunged into the lake after Skwisgaar, getting himself mostly submerged quickly as possible- it was getting in cold water that sucked. It wasn't so bad once already in it, especially while pleasantly inebriated.

Date: 2010-04-16 09:40 pm (UTC)It would have surprised Nathan to find out any of his bandmates weren't aware of what was going on between him and Ofdensen. They weren't usually quite as open about their relationship as Toki and Skwisgaar were about theirs, but they hadn't really gone out of their way to keep it a secret from the rest of Dethklok, either—just from the media, since Nathan really, really did not ever want anything like that NateBecca bullshit to happen again, and he dreaded thinking it might become necessary to hire some woman to pose as his girlfriend or something. They all had to keep up appearances, he knew. Mostly gay death metal bands just weren't really marketable, with a few rare exceptions.
Of course, if they came out of the closet it might well make their fans embrace gayness and the world's overpopulation problem would be solved overnight. Too bad solving problems wasn't metal.
Nathan sighed and looked put out when Ofdensen shot him down. "You work too damn much. Drink more," he said, handing Ofdensen several more unopened beers with a hopeful expression. "Yeah, that was pretty brutal," he said to the Shoggies when they returned. "Like a... lake troll. On steroids. I think I've heard of that guy before. Uh, before we even came here, I mean." And pity the being who ever does try to eat Dethklok. What with their mysteriously unstoppable destructive force,
and his mun is sticking with the now mostly canon theory that none of them are actually human anyway,it might lead to an apocalypse of indigestion and dysentery that not even immortality could help with.Pickles shriek-yelped loudly when he first hit the water, but was quickly back to whooping and making an ass of himself, splashing around noisily in the shallower water. "Heeey guys!" he called to Toki and Skwisgaar, and somehow managed to trip and faceplant in the water when he attempted to follow Skwisgaar. He sputtered and coughed as he picked himself up, then just kept whooping as he ran back to the shore.
"Come aaaahn, doods! Party in the lake!" Pickles grabbed Nathan and Ofdensen and tried to haul them both to their feet. Nathan only reluctantly got up, and took a few beers with him as he let Pickles usher him down to the lake, the two house-elves with lanterns dutifully following along to light their way; they remained on the shore. Nathan kept his clothes on as he waded out, not quite sure what they were all doing, but drunk enough to enjoy it regardless.
"Huh. Skwisgaar's fast," Nathan noted, watching the Swede swim.
Pickles elbowed him and laughed, not even making an effort to lower his voice as he said, "They're probably gonna have shark sex, dood. Don't watch. Theat's gay."
"Don't you... you know, wonder what he has?" Nathan asked, referring to the spiky dicks they'd all discussed at length
bad pun totally intended.Pickles cupped his mouth with his hands and shouted: "Nate wants to watch you guys fuck!"
Nathan scowled and smacked Pickles in the shoulder before pointedly turning his back on the Scandinavians and wading farther away from them. If they were all going to hang out in the water, they should use the Dethtub instead, he thought. Well, those who weren't going to have shark sex anyway.

Date: 2010-04-16 09:58 pm (UTC)Personally, the mun thinks something would happen like that episode of Billy and Mandy where the evil meteor ate Mandy's brain, only for Mandy to take over his body.Ofdensen had already considered that contingency. There were female Klokateers that could do the job well if asked to. Though to cover bases, he would probably ask one of the lesbian Klokateers. But ultimately, that would be Nathan's choice to do that.
"He's probably a student as well." Hell, they've got everything else here.
As the others got into the lake, Ofdensen thought about that, then took off his jacket. He was still a bit hesitant about going shirtless. The scar on his face was pretty cool, but he didn't want to remind
himselfthem of the one on his shoulder from the arrow.Ofdensen followed them out to the lake, shivering slightly at the cold. He glowered at Pickles's crack about Nathan watching Skiwsgaar and Toki, then hugged him from behind. "Respect their privacy guys. They probably don't want you to watch."

Date: 2010-04-17 01:47 am (UTC)Skwisgaar was surprised to see all of them coming into the lake now, and rather than being annoyed by potentially having an audience for whatever he might do with Toki, he was actually secretly pleased. It made him feel less alone in his new body, which, in an odd way, reminded him of the whole trip to Sweden clusterfuck. He'd felt alone then, too.
Staying underwater, he effortlessly swam between them, circling a few times just to show off his speed. The main sail-like dorsal fin on his back was fully raised, making him appear much bigger than he actually was, and noticeably increased his manoeuvrability. When Pickles announced that Nathan wanted to watch them fuck, he circled back near them and attempted to lobtail to splash them all, but his caudal fin was similar to that of a tiger shark, and so wasn't really designed for it. He swam up and thrashed through the surface water instead, which was more effective at causing a lot of splashing.
"At least yous broughts me a beer," he said as he nimbly took one from Nathan before swimming back to where Toki was, whom he then took by the hand and pulled out into deeper water. Despite their length, his claws actually made it easier to open cans now, and he handed it off to Toki after drinking about half, then disappeared beneath the water. Being in the lake afforded him much more freedom of movement, and he took advantage of this by slowly circling Toki and rubbing against him in a head-to-tail direction, remembering Toki had said that his skin was only scratchy in the other direction. He did have an urge to bite Toki, in a way that had nothing to do with being hungry, but it was easily ignored.
A mountain lake obviously wasn't the best place for Toki to have sex in, but Skwisgaar's own anatomy didn't seem to mind the temperature. The vertical slit was normally almost invisible on his underside, but in his current state it was made conspicuous by his cock hanging out of it. It was thicker than a human's at the base, and gradually tapered down to a head that was at least somewhat familiar looking, though the entire organ was several inches longer than what Skwisgaar was accustomed to dealing with, and didn't look to be wholly compatible with human anatomy -- proportioned for creatures larger or perhaps longer than humans. It was a lighter mottled blue-grey than the rest of him, the texture of the flesh very silken and smooth, even more so than his human cock had been with its foreskin to protect it from the effects of keratinisation. His testes were now internal, so weren't visible, and the claspers that normally lay flat against his abdomen were bent forward slightly at the moment.
His new cock was also, he discovered, a little prehensile; he watched with amusement as it curved around Toki's leg seemingly of its own accord. He swam up to the surface, enjoying how Toki's skin felt against his cock as it slid up Toki's leg. "I thinks it likes you," he said as he experimentally flexed muscles he was still getting acquainted with, causing his bizarre cock to release Toki and withdraw back into his body slightly.
This was going to take some getting used to.

Date: 2010-04-18 12:25 am (UTC)Toki was one of those sorts who wouldn't have figured out Nathan and Ofdensen's relationship on his own, even if they'd been blatantly making out in front of them. He'd have guessed that they were doing it as a joke, or, were just very, very drunk. Had Nathan haired a fake girlfriend, he probably would have believed her his real one, and was likely to remain as oblivious as the Shoggies until bluntly told.
He was tossing the few remaining articles of his clothing (aside from his socks) onto the mud near the campfire when he saw Pickles attempting to haul Nathan and Ofdensen into the water. Which effectively ended any mild concerns about the potential temperature of the water, for Toki would never let it be said that a Scandinavian wussed out about temperature before an American. It was also this thought that caused him to realize that their worries, which prompted his own, were almost certainly exaggerated. And of course, since everyone was going into the lake, the Shoggies followed suit, and were soon floating around the lake and looking for more mer-people bits to eat.
Toki laughed as Skwisgaar tried to splash Nathan and the rest- he was pretty sure that Pickles was lying about Nathan actually wanting to watch them fuck. And thankfully, it was dark, and the lake was dark, so it would have actually taken some effort for them to get anything approaching a decent show. Toki gladly swam out into the deeper water with Skwisgaar, quite unsure why anyone thought him too drunk to swim. He wasn't too drunk to walk, and, swimming was merely another mode of perambulation.
At least, the mun thinks Toki would be a pretty good swimmer, being in awesome shape and all.He finished off most of the half-beer as Skwisgaar dived under, while he remained treading water in one place- luckily, he'd been prepared for a large, fish-like body to rub against him, and so wasn't startled when he felt Skwisgaar circling him.He was, however, quite startled by the feel of something snaking around his leg- it didn't feel like any part of Skwisgaar he was familiar with, and, not like any he'd seen, either. He looked down through the dark water, trying to see exactly what he was doing, as Skwisgaar surfaced- from his positioning then, it was quite easy for him to deduce exactly what bit of Skwisgaar had now become curiously long and prehensile. "Wow-wee, does all sharks have cocks likes that? It really is likes the tentacle now," he remarked. The Shoggies were otherwise occupied, for had they overheard, they might have come to examine Skwisgaar's improved tentacle more closely. He finished off the remainder of the beer, tossing aside the beer can aside to free up his hand, which he held onto Skwisgaar with as he slid his other hand down his stomach and a bit lower, seeking a more interactive exploration of Skwisgaar's fascinating new anatomy. It never entered into Toki's head that there might be something a little 'wrong' with this- he wasn't thinking of them as 'fish' parts, but rather as Skwisgaar's. "I bet there's lots of fun stuffs to do withs that," Toki told him as his hand found his strange new cock. He wrapped his fingers about it, sliding them down slowly to meet the thick base, and then he let his fingers wander over his claspers. "Does you have three ofs them now?" As for his own parts, they were a bit slow to respond, merely due to the temperature- he had no desire to leave the lake yet, but, did look forward to the benefit of a somewhat warmer, and thus more anatomically friendly Skwisquarium.

Date: 2010-04-18 02:38 am (UTC)Nathan couldn't react in time to even try to make a grab for his stolen beer before Skwisgaar was out of reach—between the coldness of the lake slowing him down and Skwisgaar's speed, he didn't stand a chance. Eh, it was just beer. He'd get more later. When Ofdensen hugged him from behind he turned around to return the embrace, noticed Ofdensen had also remained dressed, but didn't comment on it.
Despite claiming it was gay to watch, Pickles was the one watching Toki and Skwisgaar swim out to deeper waters. He couldn't hear what they were saying, but it wasn't difficult to guess at what they were doing when Toki reached one hand into the water between his body and Skwisgaar's. It was too dark to make out much else, but it didn't prevent Pickles from crowing at the top of his lungs, "Oooh they're gettin' it ahn!"
Yeah, definitely time to go, Nathan thought. He simply abandoned the rest of his beer cans and lifted Ofdensen up, an arm behind his knees and the other supporting his shoulders, then waded back to the shore. Since they were both still dressed, he didn't bother setting Ofdensen down and just headed back toward the school, one of the house-elves with a lantern having to run to keep pace with his strides.
"Where ya gooooin'?" Pickles called after them, and ambled out of the lake to follow. The second house-elf with a lantern stayed on the shore, however, presumably waiting for Toki and Skwisgaar.
"Dethtub," Nathan yelled back. Realising Ofdensen was missing one article of clothing, and knowing Pickles would probably forget to get dressed himself, he told Pickles, "Get your clothes. And Charles's jacket."
The only difference between the two suit jackets Pickles could see was that one was mostly wet and the other wasn't, so he made his best guess and grabbed the dry one, his own clothes, and a few extra junk food kebabs for the road. Turning back to the lake, he shouted, "Doods! When yer done makin' shark babies come to the Dethtub!" It obviously didn't occur to him that Skwisgaar couldn't walk there and Toki couldn't carry him. Hey, the Shoggies could probably help. With another whoop Pickles took off after Nathan and Ofdensen, just going naked.
((Jasper won't show up until they're back on shore or one of you poke me, whichever happens first.))

Date: 2010-04-18 02:53 am (UTC)"If you need help getting Skiwsgaar to the Dethtub, owl me or get the Shoggies to help!" He yelled over Nathan's shoulder to the Scandinavians.
And then he facepalmed. "Pickles, cover your lower half at least!"
[[Soooooo....are we out? Nate/Ofdensen/Pickles I mean?]]
