004 » Video; UN: Persephone

[ragingnature]

[ 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!

[It's a little like both. Having a little voice inside of you that encourages to go apeshit when the time is right to fight back.

The Persona giving its wings a brief flap before it disappears again, and the darkness around Joker's face melts away, making the mask manifest once more on his face. He looks pleased at her reaction.]

That's not the only one I am able to use...a few of us are what are known as wildcards - those with the ability to call upon more than one Persona. They are reflections of the many mythologies of my world...I don't have any with me, but I do have a few Greek themed Personas. [He gives her another smile.] Although not our world equivalent of you, I'm afraid.

[ Persephone knows what it's like to have a little voice like that. She often fights against it and tries to keep it in check but sometimes that red-eyed side comes out and causes trouble for her. ]

Ah, I spoke with someone else that mentioned similar abilities.

[ She gives him a curious look. ] You don't have to show me but I am curious about the Greek Personas.

Really? It's probably a friend, in that case. We've tried to contact each other despite the fact we come from different times.

[He has to think and dig back to the recess of his mind.]

There's a few. I could summon all three of the fates...Dionysus was very...colorful? Like he'd been dipped in colors. My friend, Panther, she has Hectate as a Persona, looking very furious, with two snarling dogs on chains. Fortunata looked like someone had a wheel in the middle of their bodies...I think that's mostly it. Other wildcards have more access to Greek Personas. I know Michel was able to summon Hades, but I think both him and Miyabi left recently.

[That, and he only knew because he was able to summon them. Ren is not all that knowledgeable about all the gods and demons that he can't summon.]

[ragingnature]

I see.

[ Most of the names he lists off she's unfamiliar with. They might exist in her world but given how little contact she's had with Olympus she wouldn't know for sure. She knows of the Fates but has never met them. The mentions of Hecate and Hades cause her to perk up with the latter causing blue flowers to bloom in her hair. ]

That's quite a few though I don't recognize most of them.

[Oh, that sure is a neat reaction. Although Ren knows enough about mythology to know what might be gone on. He decides to be a gentleman and not point it out to her.]

I wish I could show them to you, but I have no means of being able to summon them. However, the Personas I have right now allow me to cast a multitude of spells and I'm able to withstand attacks as well.

[Would she even know?]

A bit like a video game.

[Worth a try.]

[ She's grown pretty used to people pointing out the flowers when they grow on her head. And she's not completely unaware of them, she can feel when they grow though she doesn't know what they look like (unless it comes to Hades, she knows for a fact it's always blue flowers). ]

I've never played a video game before but that sounds pretty neat.
