Love is in the Air (Riley/OPEN)

Valentine’s Day at Camp Midgard was an unusually loud occasion. Emil made sure of that fact. She had gotten up before the sun just to spread about some silly decorations to ‘spread the love’ as they say. Within an hour all of Camp Midgard, from the bunkers to the Shipwreck, was covered into streams, hearts, and confetti in all varieties of pink, red, and white. Needless to say, Emil was pretty proud of herself. She took it upon herself to make Valentine’s Day at Camp Midgard a big deal for all those involved. In the time before Eleanor came into power as Aesir, Valentine’s Day was rather scoffed at as some stupid mortal holiday, but as a daughter of Freya it was Emil’s favourite holiday. The first year Eleanor became Aesir was the also the time Emil started dating said Aesir. After a few weeks of hounding Eleanor in January, Emil finally got her girlfriend (at the time) to give the campers Valentine’s Day off. That first year Emil went all out with music, food, drinks, and everything else a good party could use. The campers loved the one day break and the sheer amount of affection and love shared that day was enough to leave the whole camp happy and smiling for the rest of the week.

Even after Emil and Eleanor broke up, Emil made sure to wear Eleanor down every year until she finally gave in and allowed everyone the day off and thus the Valentine’s Day party became a tradition. Speaking of Eleanor, the Aesir was always the first one up holiday or not. Emil was just putting the last few streamers up in the Dinning Pavilion when Eleanor was suddenly at her side silently holding out the tape for Emil. She was surprised for a moment before Emil gave Eleanor a one-armed hug then took the offered tape. Between the two of them, the entire Pavilion was done in a few minutes at which point Eleanor made her get away with a grumble of ‘I was never here.’ Emil just laughed at the Aesir and cooed about her being so cute when she was shy. In response Eleanor shot a rather rude gesture in her direction before taking a place at the head of the tables and pointedly kept her head bent over some important looking documents.

After that, the campers began waking up and streaming into the Pavilion for some food. The Pavilion was quickly filled with the sound of cheerful chatter and plans for the day. Emil found herself quickly surrounded by her fellow campers, all trying to make plans for their day off.
