004 » Video; UN: Persephone
[ This is something Persephone probably should have done a few months ago.
There is a very pink young woman on the screen. She gives a sheepish little wave as she smiles.
] Hello, my name is Persephone and I'm the Goddess of Spring back home. Yes, I'm an actual goddess, it's not just a title. Yes, I am as pink as I appear, I'm not sunburned. [ Her gaze drifts away from the camera as ticks off things that have been brought up to her. Her tone is cheerful. ] And yes, for the humans from various different versions of Earth, I am the Persephone of Greek Myth. But the stories you know are wrong...to an extent. If you have any questions pertaining to that I'll do my best to answer them.
Also, you don't have to treat me special or anything just because I'm a goddess! I'm really normal aside from the fact I randomly grow flowers in my hair sometimes. [ It's really not that random. ]
A-anywho! I'm making this post for a reason beyond that. One, I'm curious if there are any other deities from other worlds here. I've met one and spoke with another, though I believe she's gone now. If you are a deity I'm curious how being here has affected your abilities. I-if you wish to share, that is!
For anyone else, I'd like to hear about the gods of your world. If you have them.
Thanks!

[ She smiles but that fades to an expression of confusion. ]
I'm...sorry?

Orpheus. Mistress of Strings, went to the underworld, you know. [ yeah, myth orpheus is a dude, that's not important. ] An aspect of her... kind of lives in my head? Long story, it has to do with how gods and legends work in my world. Um.
I guess she has some... baggage, about you and Hades? I don't know? [ she looks faintly confused about it herself as she says it. in minako's book it was orpheus's own damn fault for looking back, really, but... ]

I'm sorry, I don't know an Orpheus. [ This is certainly not a myth anyone has brought up with her. Everyone is so focused on the kidnapping and marriage. ]
And I've only just begun working in the Underworld as an intern.

You weren't kidding when you said the stories didn't apply to you, huh? But... uh, yeah! Gods and heroes are...real in my world, but it's complicated? They're parts of the human unconscious... like, reflections of the soul.

Yeah. I mean... I was kind of kidnapped but it was completely by accident. Aphrodite was offended and found a way to get me drunk and into the back of Hades' car. He didn't even find me until he was already back home.
[ Her cheeks are burning hot pink as she speaks. ]
That's interesting.
