thank the gods these things come in greek

i need:

α) directions to the nearest graveyard from the communal housing

β) a place to buy some good cheeseburgers, fries, and dt. coke.
(or animal blood if cheeseburgers are hard to come by)

γ) a prism or some other kind of clear crystal for rainbow making

δ) cooking lessons.



oh, and how many people here are mortals/human or gods/demigods

[Insert directions to the nearest graveyard, and a good burger place, because he's helpful like that.]

Mortal but not human, emissary of Istus, which is sadly not as cool as it sounds but that's as close to god shit as I get. Most of these thugs think god is fake and lives in a sky castle or something, it's wild.

[deathkid]

[ that's incredibly helpful. tho he has no idea what in hades "istus" is... ]

last i checked there was more than one god
at least where i'm from, anyway

more than one pantheon, at that.


so if you're not human, but you're mortal
what are you?

@cdr.ebbisaryn

[greyjane]

animal blood or cheeseburgers, gracious what a choice. do you count humans as animals?

[This is not her being antagonistic, she's genuinely curious (and somewhat amused) at that... particular identifier.]

[spellslots]

Well shit, my dude, welcome to the club. We meet on Wednesday, there's a dress code.

[That's mostly a joke, unless him and Bryn going out for dinner most Wednesday's counts as a "we actually have proof of gods" club.]

I'm an elf, we get old as hell but we can still die.

[deathkid]

of course not.
humans have different souls from animals
animal blood is traditional
but i prefer to offer cheeseburgers and fries
i imagine they taste better

@maedae

[trashmammal]

people keep trying to tell me i'm not human but I think it might just be a race thing???
anyway yeah 100% mortal over here.

idk how it works where your from tho.
cause I'm pretty sure theres just the one God??
unless you're like *way* into some pagan stuff.

[deathkid]

i think i'll pass
i'm not good with dress codes
unless it's a toga

[ chronically not getting the joke forever. ]

the only elves i've ever heard of
were in stories
but i guess they exist in some universe

[greyjane]

[Seems a rather arbitrary line to her, but then she isn't the least bit religious as someone who'll be asking about gods is like to be.]

reckon we can chock that one up to preference. i'm sure someone out there would prefer blood over burgers.

oh, and another tally for your 'mortal but not human' query. :)

[deathkid]

you either are or you're not
it generally depends on what your soul happens to be
i can sense mortal/human souls
but animals or nature spirits are different


"god" with the capital "g" is outside my realm of expertise
too metaphysical
but i can tell you that there are definitely
many different pantheons of gods on earth
most mortals aren't aware though

[deathkid]

typically the dead are indifferent
but i like to treat them with respect

same question as for the other person
if not human, then what?

[trashmammal]

wait wait wait hold up.
so God is too much for you but souls arent??
i thought those kinda went together.

[spellslots]

No idea what a toga is but if you wanna rock one be my guest.

[It was a bad joke anyway.]

I'm absolutely real, and not like those Middle Earth elves so don't bother asking how much I love trees.

[greyjane]

[Whoever's on the other side of this device has a curious way of going about things, and several curious opinions besides. Shai just sort of cocks her head a bit, tapping her finger against the tablet screen before she carries on,]

culgenic. earth vernacular seems to be mutant or metahuman that i've seen.

[deathkid]

the only people i know who love trees
tend to be sprites and nymphs.
not elves.

middle earth is that place in the book about hobbits
right?
i've heard of it but never read it
i don't do much reading unless it's greek

[deathkid]

when i think of metahuman
i think of demigod
but i think that's not what you mean

...what's with the weird letters you're keeping count with.

Please don't tell me you also do creepy dead things?

No, nevermind, I work at a diner so I can get you the burgers, fries, and something that tastes like diet coke but they don't have that brand here.

And I can teach you to cook. So long as it isn't creepy zombie cooking.

It isn't creepy zombie cooking is it?

[deathkid]

souls exist
gods exist
i happen to know from experience
but the big g
we don't really talk about that
i think my uncle, zeus sees him as competition

[trashmammal]

i think i might have met them once if that helps?
i dont really remember much bout it tho.
there was this big black beach and tey were just kinda sitting there calling me an idiot.
*they

okay actually lets rewind for a sec.
your uncles who now???

voice

[deathkid]

They're Greek. And yes, I do creepy dead things, so if you have a problem with it, you don't have to come near me. No one will twist your arm.

[ if he sounds bitter, it's because he is. he's tired of being viewed as creepy or weird because of his heritage. ]

I'm not asking for "creepy zombie cooking". Just... how to cook normal food.

[greyjane]

[thank kveth's frosty tits for google, she can check on the peculiarities of the word relative to this place before making an ass of herself.]

no divine parenthood here. :) just the normal sort of genetics.

[threatenwithcuteness]

*Excuse her for being completely mortal and not having to worry about triggering demigod complexes.
Aren't you a little young to be raising the dead?*

Well, normal cooking I can teach... if you like Mexican food, but I've been getting better at diner food and breakfast stuff.

I'm Lola. I'm completely mortal FYI. All of the stuff here is really weird, but most of it isn't too scary.

*Except if there are dead people walking around. More dead people. Letha's one is enough tyvm.*

[deathkid]

them? they?

my uncle is zeus, god of the sky.
my other uncle is poseidon, god of the sea
my father is hades, god of the underworld and wealth.

[deathkid]

[ hey now, he is like 80+ years old. ]

I'm fine with diner and breakfast stuff. That would be better than the nothing I can cook now. But if you ever learn Italian stuff, that'd be cool.

[ there's shrug in his voice. ]

I'm Nico, and for the record, I'm probably going to be one of those "weird" people.

[trashmammal]

i'm pretty sure god is a they.
that's what they tell you in church anyway.
i havent gone since i was like 14/15 so idk if they changed it.

okay i dont remember a lot from social studies.
but i think that makes you half god??
congrats dude.

[deathkid]

normal except for the whole
mutant thing
apparently
