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.

ooc | threadjacking is more than welcome and, frankly, encouraged. let's all go hog boar wild. 🫡 )

Joke's on your sarcasm, I know the Free Cities wouldn't take someone that young. They're not good enough child soldiers for their needs.

[demigoth]

Okay?

[itookashot]

Just chill out.

Private

[demigoth]

You chill out. No one asked for your opinion, and if your friend had explained without cursive, maybe things would be different, but she's an idiot. Stop trying to get the last word for her.

Private

[itookashot]

Says the person who replied to me to get the last word.

[demigoth]

But I made sure that it wasn’t flooding everyone’s brains anymore. This is for an audience of me. Yours was for her. Don’t worry I won’t tell her you didn’t REALLY get the last word.

[itookashot]

Oh you say that as if I don't intend to reply to you until you give up. That's who gets the last word.

Also, we're family, she knows.

[demigoth]

Sisyphus? How did you get out?

[itookashot]

No idea who that is. Next try.

Also, for the record, I'm trying to help. I'm trying to keep your boyfriend from losing his job, stop an unnecessary fight from happening between Summoned when we're in the middle of the Singularity's temper tantrum, and not get you lot isolated from the very entrenched group of old Summoned here. I'm part of the welcoming committee and I help run the inn everyone lives in, it's my job.

[demigoth]

You’re not. You’re trying not to rock a boat, and maybe I don’t know what boat that is. I also don’t care, and threatening Will won’t go how you think. Just because someone’s old and crusty doesn’t mean they’re right.

And you know what? This is a terrible welcome. I have to apologize to other people who I thought were awful at welcomes. That’s how bad yours is.

Thanks for the heads up about the inn.

[itookashot]

I'm not threatening anyone. You lot picked a fight with one of the owners of the business he works for. I was trying to smooth it over because he seems to like it there, but it's out of my hands if that's how you want to play it.

Keep on thinking you're the reasonable one here, mate. The inn is still open if you lot want a place to stay as Mag doesn't pick sides.

[demigoth]

I don’t speak for Will. Where he works and lives is HIS call. Maybe you should think about letting HIM work it out with THEM, because it doesn’t sound like it was ever in your hands.

I’m the one who gets that there’s at least 10 people involved. I’m sure tarring everyone with the same brush will work eventually.

[itookashot]

Alright, believe and think whatever you want. I will let you have the last word from here.

[demigoth]

Sure you will. Thanks mate.

[itookashot]

[As promised, no reply.]
