Hi all.
I've found in my travels that the best ways to get to know a community are to see what people do in their off time and find out where they go. So. Tell me anything.
What are your favorite places to eat?
What do you do with your time?
What are popular activities or hobbies around here?
For my own interestes, I have a few specifics:
Where is the nearest record shop?
Does anyone need an archival specialist? Data engineer? Librarian?
Also-- Does anyone know of a half decent mechanic that will follow instructions?
Thanks.

This is Also Athena. Not expecting to meet an Actual God.
...Ironically, given how they were just coming down off of making a deal with the son of an entity that sounded downright Dionysian from everything they understood of the world. It had not been a simple ordeal, but nothing of value was ever simple. They threw the right to simplicity away when they allowed the cybernetic modifications to be done to their body while they were at the threshold of Death itself.
It wasn't as if Athena could even see other options at that point.
Their heart itself seemed as if it had formed a sticky glob in what passed as their throat-- a tactile signal that was noticeable while they caught their breath.
This was... going to be fun.]
3/3
I'm just a nerd that likes the Greeks a little too much. It was a favorite subject of mine in college, and I borrowed Athena's name as my tag for online strategy games during a long recovery after an accident.
I hope she didn't mind. I needed the strength and wisdom of the Goddess of War Tactics at that point, and the name stuck.
That accident is part of why I asked for a mechanic, if you happen to know one.
But, so I don't bore the God of Sleep, we don't have to get into specifics. I don't wish to be struck insomniac again.
Fruit pies sound excellent, and I would certainly love to try the local fare. Which ones are your favorite? And, where are your favorite places to nap?
no subject
i have no idea what a lot of what you said means individually and definitely not when strung together. still learning a lot about the things in this place. not sure what a mechanic is supposed to do. might be worth using that little search thing on the phone device thing we are using to talk. it was useful for me!
[ very technical ]
i mean i would only do that if you made me really mad and i don't really think i am the guy who gets mad!
i like raspberries and blueberries a lot
and i liked to nap around in parks especially if you make your way into the trees
people will leave you alone a lot it turns out if you just sleep randomly in the trees
no subject
That's the core of it, anyway.
It's been years since I hit the books, but I recall Hypnos as kind of keeping out of the messier affairs unless specifically asked. I guess you have too much napping to do to bother with it, huh? That helps me feel a little better, now.
Rasberries and blueberries sound REALLY good right now. I think pie with cream, a coffee, and a nap in a tree sounds like a good way to spend an afternoon.
no subject
i like the peace and quiet as much as i can get which you do not really get with the olympians. and i like the underworld. and time in the house of hades is a lot of fun. i get to greet people who come out of styx.
i mean it must be nice to see a welcoming face like mine especially if they were just with one of my brothers.
a bit more of a make sure you have a peaceful sleep though. i am the good guy. and i don't trick girls by turning into random animals so that's a big plus.
no subject
Oh gods. Zeus is the WORST!
But now I'm curious-- what is Hades like as a boss? I always imagined him as being sort of like a long suffering accountant who really loves his wife. He's God of the Dead, not Death. That's for Thanatos to deal with.
And, maybe Hermes. Mostly Thanatos though.
no subject
[ he's learning ]
hades is a neat boss. he likes my doodles and made me employee of the week once. he's a pretty big guy with a long beard. he is very busy and kind of grumpy but i like him most of the time.
i mean yeah it is mostly thanatos. he is always so busy. he was here but he's gone home.
that is ok though. he will be much happier at home.
no subject
They both seem like the type that would be very busy. Thanatos must not have known what to do with himself here. Poor guy must not have much time for hobbies...
no subject
not sure what type of hobby the god of sleep has? naps? i liked to draw at home. lord hades liked my drawings, too.
no subject
What kind of drawings do you do?
no subject
a lot of recently dead
some shade
sometimes thanatos
sometimes zagreus
sometimes a very unhappy megaera
no subject
She's perfectly right up be upset.
no subject
but she is always nice to me even then
so no complaints regardless
no subject
It's good that she's nice to you, so I'm glad that you have a good time with everything!
no subject
she is strong and terrifyin
she's great
but it's this whole thing...they do i guess
[ He's not convinced it's not just flirting. ]
no subject
You'd think that people would sort out their issues after a few centuries. But, regardless, they sound like a fun team to be around. I'm almost jealous.
