to: all, with apologies to nico di angelo

( the message is deliberately written in ancient greek. for most summoned, the network will auto-translate, but she's hoping there might be others who recognize the original text. )

WILL SOLACE COME RETRIEVE YOUR EMOTIONAL SUPPORT GOTH I'M NOT HIS BABYSITTER

( helpfully, she adds an illustration that no one asked for: )



( then, because nico seriously needs more friends and it's her duty as former head counselor of the ares cabin to embarrass any and all younger campers: )

↖  BTW THIS IS NICO
HE LOVES LONG WALKS THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD AND BROODING IN GRAVEYARDS
HE'S SPOKEN FOR BUT I'M SURE HE'LL BE THE AFTERLIFE OF YOUR NEXT PARTY
CHALLENGE HIM TO A GAME OF MYTHOMAGIC TODAY!!!

ALSO IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS SEEN THESE DEMIGODS CONTACT ME ASAP
LOOKS LIKE ZEUS IS SUPER FUCKING PISSED AGAIN AND WE NEED A GAMEPLAN

( more shitty doodles follow, this time vaguely resembling percy and annabeth, although this time she labels them: )



— CLARISSE LA RUE, DRAKON-SLAYER, DAUGHTER OF ARES

( she figures she may as well cover all her bases here since all of this feels like a ren faire on steroids anyway.

always fine with thread-jacking I'm sorry I keep editing I forget

Wow we got an influx this time! Welcome to the madness, love the pictures. If you haven't been to Mag's Inn yet come on over, there are rooms here for new Summoned. I'm part of the welcome squad.

[areou]

You have a welcome squad? Don't tell me there's an orientation film

[itookashot]

They don't have that kind of tech here. It's mostly a few of us who have been around for a few years giving people info about it here and if there are types of jobs you want and places to stay.

[areou]

Yeah, I'll pass
Barracks suit me just fine

[itookashot]

Fair enough! They'll give you a sword at least, that's always good.

[areou]

I'd prefer a spear, but I can work with a sword

[itookashot]

Ask them, they might have one. I'm pretty sure they're supposed to gear you guys up if you work for them.

[areou]

I'll look into it
I'm guessing most people don't join up if you've got a whole welcome squad

[itookashot]

Nope, I'd say like 90% of people end up in town. Not a lot of military folks show up. You should keep a look out for Jane Shepard, she's space military at her home and she's pretty great. You two might get along. Her boyfriend is also space military of some kind, he's a Turian which is a kind of alien that is very hard to miss.

[areou]

Uh, yeah, I'll keep that in mind

( listen, greek gods and monsters? that's her life, so she's pretty used to weird shit being normal. but space military and aliens? somehow even she finds that hard to believe. maybe because everything she knows existed thousands of years ago. the distant future seems a lot harder to imagine. )
