( 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. 🫡 )

That is a very important skill. Though demigods?

[ Is the implication here that...she's one? That others are? ]

In Solvunn we mostly barter, though I've earned some coin in Nocwich if you'd like. But I have it on good authority that I can bake a mean pie.

[areou]

Demigods, half-human half-god
My father is Ares, god of war
Makes it hard to exist in the mortal world when monsters are constantly trying to pick a fight over who gets to eat you first

Don't think you can mail a pie
What's Nocwich?

[aquaveiled]

They've summoned gods and now the children of gods? These summoning spells are very powerful...

Yes, it isn't fun being eaten. Is it your job then to take care of those so mortals don't?

A Delivery Moogle could.

Nocwich is another nation that we can usually visit once a moon. Though we haven't received our normal invitation this time around.

[areou]

Not exactly, monsters don't care about mortals
It's our job to handle the shit the gods can't or won't do themselves

A delivery what?

Wait, can everyone visit this place? Even if they're from different territories?

( she's already thinking ahead, planning some sort of rendezvous when this place opens up again so she doesn't have to rely on the horizon to see her friends. )

[aquaveiled]

Oh, I see. That is quite the burden to be placed on you, it sounds like.

[ But she can sympathize with gods asking someone else to step in on their behalf. ]

I'll show you!

[ Though her handwriting is quite neat, her artistic skills are...not. ]



They look like this! With little wings and poms on their heads.

Yes, that's correct. It's the closest thing we have to neutral territory, at least for now.

[areou]

I mean, yeah, I guess, but c'est la vie or whatever

( she doesn't really have the bandwidth to get into the nuances of the dynamic between gods and demigods right now. that's a can of worms for another time. but that drawing ... is something, alright. )

And they have those here? Moogies?

( listen, "moogle" doesn't translate well into ancient greek. )

[aquaveiled]

They do have them in the Horizon, at least. If you'd like to meet one! They can be quite friendly and mischievous.

But we have chocobos now out in the forests, so mayhaps someday we'll have moogles too.
