asgardeventide | One. [ video ]

[ The video turns on and Annabeth gives a small wave at the camera; she looks pretty excited for whatever reason. ]

Hi. My name's Annabeth Chase -- and I know I'm not the first, but I'm another person that's been brought here permanently after I arrived for the celebration.

But I was reading the welcome...uh, drawing? And I wasn't really satisfied by the answers. Can anyone tell me a little bit more about this place and the gods? Where I come from, we don't really have these same gods. [ You know, being a daughter of a Greek goddess and how the Greek pantheon is a thing. ] Any help you'd like to give would be really appreciated. Or maybe just tell me where I can go to find out some more -- I looked in the library, but it's so huge. I might have missed something.

Also if I'm going to be living here, I should probably help out. What's there to do around here? Jobs and stuff? I'd offer up my services as an architect, but you usually need some capital before you can build anything...

--Oh and Seaweed Brain, you'd better message me when you see this. Thanks!

[He's not going to mention how relieved he is to see this. Or worried. Or anything else. Instead he raises a brow at that last part and gives his usual grin.]

Did you just thank me?

[ She raises a single eyebrow, because she's so happy to see him that she can't pull out the appropriate stern face to his silly reaction. ]

I was thanking everyone except you. I knew you'd show up sooner and later. And we still have to get hamburgers.

[He shrugs.] Okay. Fine. Next time I won't respond. [It's a lie but, hey.] That can be arranged.

Hey! I didn't say I don't want you to stop responding!

[ She laughs anyway, because it's a decent threat. ] I should tell you what house I'm in. I'm getting used to this map pretty quick, but it's still going to be a lot of walks.

So you want me to respond. And I don't get thanks for that?

[He's totally teasing ~~harassing~~.] That would be a good idea. We should find out what's going on with Leo. --And Luke, too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down, newbie. What's the big hurry? It's really not like you get to leave if you're all productive. [ Isn't he helpful? ]

Sorry, sorry. I don't really think it's in my nature not to ask ten things at once.

[ That and she's extremely happy not to be dead and/or dying at the bottom of a pit for the current moment. She can deal with that -- with her boyfriend -- at a later time, with more preparation. ]

What's your name?

Mm. That's more like it. [ This is the first newcomer he's greeted since his arrival back in the city a little over two weeks ago. One thing's for sure -- this place hasn't changed a bit. ]

I'm Damon. From the house of Loki. Where did you get chucked into?

You thought the second half was boring, too, didn't you?

[ Yesss another possible new recruit for the Highwind. ]

Hi, welcome to the city! Are you still looking for a job?

What do you want to know? Other than everything. [ Because everything is kind of vague. She doesn't know too much about being here, minus her reading, what she's learned and things that she already knew about this, but she can try ]

Thanks.

[ And her response is entirely sarcastic. ] We should. The last time I talked to him, he wanted to stick around, too. I'd like to know what happened.

[ Ah, Luke. She looks a little worried, to be honest. Worried and uncertain, but exasperated. ] Percy, I'm not sure what's going on with him.

[ She's enthusiastic because she likes to learn; she seems really eager to talk to everyone, even the sarcastic people. ]

Good to meet you. I'm in Odin. I'm still trying to figure out what exactly that means -- Norse gods were never my specialty in school.

[ She laughs, a little bit. ]

A little. But only because I didn't understand the context for the story itself. I'm sure when I figure out who the main characters are it'll make more sense.

Was it really that boring for you? [ A raised eyebrow; it's a joke, clearly. ]

[ She makes a noise of affirmation. ]

Yeah. I figured it couldn't hurt to jump right into being proactive. At home, I'm usually so busy. If I sit around too long, I'm going to go completely crazy.

What's your name?

I feel a little bit lost with the last part of the welcome story. Could you maybe explain to me what the gods are...well, what they're gods of? It might help me put the pieces together.

[ Yeah, the welcome story was... interesting ]

They're the gods of Asgard, which is where we are. [ Just to be clear ] It's like any gods: strength, love, intelligence. Each has a strength.

Ooh, I think it means you'll be in a house filled with geeks, nerds and know-it-all smarty pants. [ Based on his impression at least. ] Judging by your enthusiasm, it looks like you'll be in good company.

Congratulations.

Hehehe, yes, I understand, I'm exactly the same way! I'm Jade Harley, aaand.. I definitely know of some open jobs, if you're interested at all.

Oh? What kind of Gods do you have back home?

[Now she's a bit curious!]

Very. I thought the drawings were much better.

Everyone else is still here. There's still time. He was looking for a forge last I checked.

[Yeah, that makes him a bit worried too. And uneasy. How do you deal with a guy that had been your enemy forever up until the last minute or so of his life? Percy wasn't entirely sure, but--] We help him.

I know. There's still time for all of them.

[ Reyna included. Although meeting with the other girl was sure to be...less than exciting, Annabeth still wanted to get off on a positive foot with her. ]

We're going to fix things this time.

[ She laughs. ]

It's just like home. All of my siblings were really bookish, too. I don't think there was a single one that didn't enjoy asking a million questions.

What's Loki like?

They were shorter and cuter, at least.

[ A laugh, small. ] What's your name?
