[The first thing that one will notice when they see the video is that this man in a suit is very, very blue. Literally. His skin is blue and his hair is the palest shade possible of blue as well. He looks quite serious as he gazes into the camera. Almost intimidating.]

Hello. I have a couple of inquiries to make of those of you here. The first is that I would like to know what job opportunities there are. Personally I would prefer to work at a moonblessed business to offer my support to the owner but I will not be pick. For those who are unaware, I am Hades, King of the Underworld.

And for those unaware of my reputation, I have managed the Underworld for thousands of years. I have excellent leadership qualities as well as the ability to work under pressure in times of great stress. Should you require a resume I will be happy to create one.

[He clears his throat and fixes his tie.]

This brings me to my second point. I will require a nanny who is skilled and understanding in the matter of dogs. I have several and, while most of them can be left at home, a couple require more attention. One even requires medication which I will provide to you. Naturally I will make sure you are well compensated and I will be conducting a very thorough interview.

Essentially if you do not meet my standards you won't be taking care of my dogs.

[With that, he pushes his hand through his hair and gives such a surprisingly charming smile.]

Thank you for your assistance.

[ It's not good no, but Lunatia is a big planet. Perhaps there's someone he can talk with that can help. This place much has professionals. ]

It can't hurt, that way you will know in advance if the dogs are comfortable with their caretaker.

It's kind of adorable that you love them that much, no offense. The stories I heard on Earth about greek gods usually make it sounds like you're much more selfish. The change is nice.

[deathceo]

This is the one case where I won't take offense. Though I would say I've had more than my fair share of being selfish.

[Hades sighs but he's not going to shy away from admitting to his own fault.]

I am trying to be better.

[ A smile stretches on Peter's lips at that answer. All the gods he's meet in the past has been kind of jackasses, but the ones he encounter in this planet - Persephone, Eros, Hades...they're nice. He could get used to it. ]

We're all like that sometimes. What matter is how you act after realizing you were being selfish. You should have seen me and the other guardians a few years ago, we ended truly bonding while in prison.

[deathceo]

In prison? That seems an unusual place to suddenly bond.

[spacedisaster]

You should have seen out very first encounter. The woman who's my girlfriend now, back then tried to steal from me and then murder me.

It does make for some interesting stories to tell our grandchildren if we ever have them.

[deathceo]

I can't even really judge this given how messed up some of the marriages in my own family are.

[To put it very mildly.]

I take it she's past the murdering you phase?

[spacedisaster]

Hah, well she had her reason at the time, even we all ended working together. I remember a few things about your mythology, so I know that some stories are rather wild.

[ How much is true and how much is fantasy, that's a mystery. ]

That phase is long gone, we even live together now.
