Behold chapter 6 of the superhero story, for your delectation:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/6610714/chapters/17355472
Spoiler: "The skald is WHO?" • show
What can I say, things could have gone differently for Emil.  Did you think it was Mikkel maybe?
Also, our own Piney is revealed as the cleanser on the expedition, my condolences to Clara, she's not having a very good run of it.


In which the clogs do not make an appearance, but our own Fimbulvarg does.

Neat.

Yesss, I had a sneaking suspicion it was her ;) I'm really enjoying her characterization from what little I've seen of it! And of course poor Emil, aww. ::)

Heeee, glad you're enjoying it, at least Clara has a very good reason to get stroppy!  Now let's see where this goes.

Right-o, onward with chapter 8.  This one introduces Haiz coming to assist Sonja, a small look at Reynir's whereabouts, and a bucket of fish guts.

I had always wondered why there weren't more dogs in the safer zones.

Chapter 9 of the superhero AU is here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/6610714/chapters/17680045

AquaAurion, your SSSSona Sofie shows up in this one.
Spoiler: show
Again.


It looks like Noodly's Sonja might have gotten the prophetic dreams wrong, huh?  Fat chance.

Also, an earlier chapter has been modified, as Martti has pointed out to me that my Hungarian was not correct.  Many thanks to Martti for the assistance!

And only slightly delayed, here is chap. 10 forthwith:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/6610714/chapters/17971666

We see who the expedition has gotten to replace Tuuri and Arvind as driver, skald, medic (although it was already tipped that Emil was the skald), and Reynir finds someone who speaks his language, at last.
I've made some collection of SSSSonae here, haven't I?  In this chapter alone, we see the SSSSonas of Gwenno, Haiz, Noodly Appendage, Sunflower, AquaAurion, and Ragnarok, and the little sister I created for Ana Nymus' character.  AquaAurion, your Sofie is actually a central character, sorry about that.

*falls over laughing at Arbet's reaction to Reynir*

Or would he still be Jon at this point?

Hah, it's just envy, Jón is jealous he doesn't have styley clogs like that. *grin*

I thought your description of Sofie quite fit the shattered team dynamic I was looking for once I'd crystallised the Captain A**hole character. I enjoyed teasing that Tuuri was the driver.

One revelation to go on the team (more elsewhere up my sleeve).  Plus, Sigrun herself finally enters the story soon, instead of just her future self, I'm looking forward to writing the interplay with Cap'n A**hole.
