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!

Y-yeah, basically.

I just hate that I'll be letting so many people down...

[ She shakes her head as she drops her gaze. ] I don't really want to talk about it but it's not Zeus.

That can be helped and I can understand that it's difficult. But in the end, it's your own life and you will end unhappy if you can't make your own decisions.

[ Peter nods and drops the subject, it really looks like it's upsetting to her. ]

Of course, don't worry. Forget I asked, my bad.

I know. It's just... It's a complication situation. I've been given a scholarship for school on top of everything and if I back out I lose that. And I really like school! I don't want to give that up.

[ She sighs and waves a hand in the air. ]

None of that matters here.

[ She looks up and gives the camera a small smile. ]

Thanks.

Ah...If you give up on it you give up on your chance to stay in the city and you lose your freedom. It's tricky. Perhaps you could find a job to pay for your studies...? I didn't even know that God had scholarships.

Maybe it doesn't but if it bothers you, I want to try and help. Or at least listen.

[ It's not much, he knows, but Peter does want to help. ]

No problem. And ey, if he ever show sup here, let me know.

[ Does he say that last part in a totally ' I can totally murder that guy for you' tone of voice? yes, yes he does. ]

I am getting paid for my internship. So maybe I can just keep using the scholarship while I'm working and pay it all back in the end?

[ She shrugs. It's her only plan right now. ]

Uh, sure.

[spacedisaster]

You get paid? That could work, yes.

Don't worry too much about it. Until we find a way to go back to our worlds, it's not worth to stress yourself over it.

[ragingnature]

Yup!

I'm trying not to. Especially since whatever we do here doesn't matter when we return home.

[spacedisaster]

Pretty much, So let's have fun and relax.
