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: )

Lord Apollo! Pleasure to finally meet you, mate.

And I'd be more than happy to. Although that might depend on where exactly you are...?

[divasmio]

Zagreus, as far as I'm concerned, we're family. You've no need to address me with a title. Just Apollo is fine.

I'm currently staying in the Free Cities. Are you near? It might be difficult to travel in these storms.

[inthenameofhades]

Of course your family! Doesn't mean I can't be polite. But if you'd prefer just Apollo, I'm happy to oblige.

And - that might be an issue, I'm afraid. You see I'm in Solvunn. And the local mortals really don’t like people moving from one territory to another. So...meeting in person might be rather difficult. Unless anyone has introduced you to the Horizon?

[divasmio]

I've heard of it in passing, but not gotten much detail. Some kind of central location?

[inthenameofhades]

Not central in any physical sense. More like...a dreaming world, that the Summoned may access. Reminds me of Chaos's realm a bit, actually.

[divasmio]

I've been to Chaos on my world, too. I wouldn't necessarily call it a dream, but I'm sure it's much nicer where you're from.

So we can see each other in dreams, then?

[inthenameofhades]

Not dreams, exactly, but...something adjacent to dreams, perhaps. I do wonder what Hypnos would make of it, if he were here.

[divasmio]

Perhaps he'll appear! I'm swiftly coming to understand that anything is possible here.

Someone mentioned organizing a family dinner. I think I'd like to arrange that for us. Perhaps we could do it in the Horizon.

[inthenameofhades]

A family dinner would be lovely. I do want to meet you all properly, in person.

And I think Horizon might be the only place we could have such a gathering. There was a place where we could meet those from other territories before, but the residents there aren't allowing visitors are present.

[divasmio]

Well, when it opens up again, I'll be happy to meet with you in person as well as this Horizon place.

[inthenameofhades]

I look forward to it!
