Night 15: Why?

I stretched in my chair. I spun it around to face my door.

At least inner world, I was safe. I didn't have to face the people and situations that were awful.

I didn't ask for a mother like this. I love her but I can't spend the rest of my life trying to save her from herself. Her misery.

Instead, this week, we made Jareth essentially dad. And Valmar mom. Its how we are healing our trauma and learning to separate emotionally from our outer world parent.

Meanwhile, I see Greenland and Denmark and I just keep wanting to cry. To go march. But I dont have the things I need to take care of me yet. A car. A job. My own place.

I feel trapped in this place. I am no longer grateful instead I just want so badly to run away from this place.

Jareth told me that I can't run away. That I need to trust that we are working on all of this its just going to take a few weeks. That we need to try to be patient.

I hate it. I hate living with my parent. She gaslights us. She explodes into a rant and screams that nobody cares about her feelings, that she's just ignored and treated like she's stupid. None of that is true.

In the past, we'd try to counter her and give comfort. It never works. I'm tired of it. She's 72. I've spent my own life trying to save my mom. I can't do it anymore. I tried to save and rescue other people too.

I can't do that anymore. Its extremely unhealthy. I refuse to go fown that path anymore. I will rescue and save myself instead.

At the same time...

Electricity rippled up and down my arm. I could see its blue light and feel the heat. I stepped forward, striding with my black, goth boots.

Im searching. Im scrolling through our memory index. I keep switching the time period back and then forward.

I see not just patterns but a possibility.

If we could only find a way to bring our powers from inner world to the outer one. Isn't it possible?

I can't find the answer...yet.

But slowly, that stranger is taking over. I see his influence...everywhere.

Loki. It is Loki.

He claims to be THE Loki God of Mischief from Norse Mythology. I doubt it. I think he's just an alter who wants to be that. It doesn't matter.

The problem is Loki and this mysterious Vydar aka V are working together.

They want to get all of us to work together yet they are slowly taking charge. I. Don't. Like. That.

So im putting a stop to it. Today. Tonight.

I stride out of the memories into the command central. The ship we front at when fronting.

I look around. I see Argus leaning against the wall nearby. I see Dinah sitting on the floor, biting a fish stuffed animal. And I see Jareth in the command chair.

"Jareth. Where's Loki?"

Jareth turns to me. "Oh! Oh...Voidius...hi. I dont know where Loki is. Why?"

I shift on my feet then sigh. "Loki is a problem. He is trying to get us to you know..."

Jareth waves his hand. "Shhh. We can't reveal it out loud. Loki is going to be patient. Its not possible to save USA without a car and income."

I look at Jareth with disappointment. "NO. We can. We just need a plan and do it online."

Jareth crosses his arms. "Oh? How?"

I look around, still, no Loki. "We make videos."

Jareth shrugs. "Okay? So What do we say?"

I rub my finger over my thumbs nail. "Let's give people a performance? You know...role play...im not kidding."

Jareth nods. "That was our plan before. Okay let's try that. I think I got some ideas for this."

Loki pops in. "Jareth, I have some questions for...y...."

I leap into action and I try to tackle Loki. "Hey, WTF Voidius! Fuck off, you stupid space dust!"

I cackles and growl at him for missing. "You will not get us arrested. Do illegal shit. Cause harm. Disobey laws nor encourage violence...understood, puny god, is that clear?"

Loki rolls his eyes. "Voidius, Im not stupid. We'll um...maybe a little but I did a really convincing act at a hotel and we got chased out by a guy saying out demon be gone. They thought I was a demon, I thought that was pretty funny and cool."

I cross my arms. "You nearly got us in major trouble dude. Fuck off. Remember you swore an unbreakable vow to protect us and not cause harm. So don't break it. We will cage you if needed."

Loki sighed. "I have only the Legion's best interest at heart. I love you all. So yes I understand. Don't cause harm. Don't be stupid. Duly noted."

"Good," I say with a growl.

Jareth gets out if the chair and puts his hand on Lokis shoulder. "You got us 5150ed at Arrowhead Center shit place because you announced to everyone that you were Loki, God of Stories and you stood on a chair while doing it. Dude. Fuck you but also never do that again."

Loki scratched behind his head. "Yea um im sorry. That was really a stupid idea. I get it. Never again."

Jareth smiled. "So we making a video?"

Loki smile is huge. "OH! YES! About freaking time! Lets go! Autobots roll out!"

Voidius facepalms. "We are not robots, imbecile."

Jareth frowns. "Hey, we are allies and a team. Lets be nice. I love you Loki. I forgive you."

Loki rins his eye.

"Whats the matter, Loki? Got something making you misty eyed?" I said, mockingly.

"Hey! Stop it Voidius. Don't be a jerk. Knock it off."

I shrug. "Yea okay. Sorry. I forgive you Loki."

Loki nods. "Thanks. So video?"

"Yup. Guess we gotta plan it out," said Jareth.

Loki smirks. "This is gonna be awesome."

I shrug and walk out. "Let me know what you need. Love you guys."

Meanwhile

I look over my skills. I got this. Lets create a legend.

I scribbled down notes.

Mythology

I know what to do. - V

Sincerely,

The Legion bridge mates Jareth, Voidius, Loki and V.
