oh
uh well sorry i dont remember you
but you know jade and john then
thats cool

That's okay. I didn't expect you to. [No hard feelings at all.]

Jade more than John if it's the same John I'm thinking of. [Considerably so; John she's only met or seen briefly.] She used to have the room next to mine. She's a very nice girl.

[... Hm. She's really not certain how the subject might be received, but--]

I also know Dave.

[Oh. Well, of course she knows Dave.]

cant say im surprised
dude gets around

[She's not totally sure, however, what their relationship is. She didn't miss Davesprite's name, after all, and given some of the interesting relationships in her own worlds, well-- she can't help a tendency toward caution.]

I'm glad he's good at socializing then.

[Pause.]

How do you know him?

[He's suddenly glad he only used text in this post.]

im his ghostly spirit guide
or i was i took off to do my own thing a while ago
havent seen him in a few years actually

[Huh.]

That [... What is there to say about that?] sounds like a very interesting situation. Maybe you'll meet again in the city. [She's... not sure whether that's what he'd want out of the situation or not, but,] So what did you do? As your own thing I mean.

ill see him at some point its practically an inevitability
but i just looked for my bro
fought some monsters and got a badass sword forged by a hulking dude in a flaming mohawk
which isnt actually the sick burn it sounds like
his head was literally on fire

[Come to think of it, didn't Dave mention a bro-- but perhaps it's nothing. She hesitates, mulling something over, then,]

Is it the good kind of inevitability or the bad kind?

[-- Welp.]

That sounds very uncomfortable. [-- Oh, except--] What was the hulking dude's [to use his wording] name? [Because she can think of someone else with flames for hair, and it's not exactly a positive connection to make.]

neither really its just one of those things that is
and his names hephaestus
lord of the forge
sleeper of the most inconvenient goddamn times lifted straight from the dusty stone tablets of greek mythology

[Duly noted, that's for sure.]

[Greek mythology? That sounds familiar, but... hm.]

Sounds like quite an adventure. But at least you got what you needed right? Even if it wasn't at a convenient time. [Pause.] He didn't mention anyone named Hades did he?

no
i dont think theres a denizen around named after that guy actually
maybe in another session?
but not ours

[-- Wait,]

Named after him?

[Not the actual-- hm.]

So you have heard the name before?

hades? yeah
god of the underworld or some shit right

[If it weren't so fourth wally, he'd comment about Disney making a movie with him in it.]

im not too tight with mythology but im pretty sure hes kind of a big deal

Right.

[~~And it would not even be the strangest thing she's ever been told in her life.~~]

My worlds had a version of him too. [For lack of a better term.] He's [... well.] not a very nice man. Or at least the one I know of isn't. I'm glad you didn't have to deal with him.

why
whatd he do
or what is he doing
i can kind of see it if he lords over the dead but thats what hel does here near as i can figure
though i dont know the inmate opinion on her

By the sound of things he tried to make a lot of trouble in his world especially for a man named Hercules. [Effectively, anyway. They never really did get super into the details of motivation or goal.] He released a number of monsters to wreak havoc and was responsible for kidnapping and manipulating others as well. He's been stopped before but I doubt that he's given up. It's hard to permanently stop a god from doing what he wants to. [What with that whole 'immortality' issue.] And like you said before time is a bit complicated here. [As in it's more or less meaningless in relation to their home worlds, anyway.]

Yes Hel is the goddess of the dead here. We don't usually see very much of her. She's not the most talkative of the gods. Her district can be a bit rough though. Some of the people in her House aren't the kindest. [Understatement of the year.] That area is also where the amusement park is but it's not always the best place to visit.

[Wow, that sure does sound weirdly familiar! And everyone keeps making him more and more paranoid about his house. The thing that stands out most to him, however, is:]

amusement park

[Whoops? Well, better that he be prepared, then, right?]

Yes. Amusement park.

But it's full of ghosts at night.

[He is ollying the fuck outy asap.]

doesnt sound so bad
depending on what kind of ghosts were talkin

[She wouldn't blame him, even if the two people she would be most concerned about sharing that House with herself have gone.]

I don't know the details. I've never gone there myself.

[Pretty sure even semi-malicious ghosts are best avoided.]

I admit I'm curious but I think maybe it's something better left alone unless you know how to handle ghosts.

[... Well,]

Come to think of it I do know at least one person who went there and didn't get hurt but he's not exactly average.

oh yeah who

[She'd... be more hesitant about mentioning the name if he hadn't already passed her creep test.]

His name is Sora. It won't do you any good to speak to him though. He won't remember going there.

huh
did he get hit by the memory nuke too
i wasnt too sure how common that shit was

More or less. [If one is inclined to call it that.] It mostly happens to people when they're sent back to their worlds. When they come back here they usually don't remember anything about what happened in the city before. [Well,] Like you.

yeah i saw ive been through the revolving door a few times already
i guess the city wasnt too keen on the creamsicle taste
or the feathers
crows probably arent the best substitute for your standard cage free farm fresh motherfuckers
