Hi, ah.

[ Awkward fingergun for you, network. ]

Quick question, the reason for it will sound obvious given recent events. [ ie: that giantass flood that ruined everyone's homes. ] Does anybody here own any of the ships docked in the port about a ten minute walk above the Crystal Beach? Specifically, the large galleon. I know a few are owned by companies and the other dock is strictly for Lunar Knights, but I'm looking to make a purchase or strike a deal for that ship in particular.

I'm Fjord. Thanks ... for your time.

[ Now he's doing some serious thinking. ]

I wonder if the Wildmother is ever anything but a giant face in the sky ... Maybe takes a day off and reads on her couch of ... weeds.

[ragingnature]

I don't know.

But, um, why a couch of weeds?

[halforc]

Well, she's green and very flowery which makes sense because she is nature, so she's always attached to it in my head in some way. Weeds are comfy, better than grass. I don't know what flowers she'd nap on ...

Or maybe she sleeps in the water of the sea.

[ragingnature]

Grass can be plenty comfy. I would think moss though, it can be nice and soft as long as you don't let it dry out.

But maybe she does sleep in the water, you did say she was an all around nature goddess rather than beholden to single aspect of nature.

[halforc]

Yeah, she's everywhere, it's a little mindblowing to think about.

... Can a God of Death kill his own dick? Or bring it back to life if he did?

[ JUST VOICING THE THOUGHTS AS THEY COME. ]

[ragingnature]

[ She lets out a choking noise followed by a few coughs. ]

First off, why?

Second, he's not a God of Death, he's God of the Dead. There's a difference.

Third...he can't bring the dead back to life. That's not...that's not something any of us can do.

[halforc]

There's a lot of answers there which I'm grateful for but they only inspire more questions. Why is there a difference between God of Death and Dead beyond semantics?

[ragingnature]

I think the difference is that he can control the dead, but he can't collect the souls of the dead like a Death God can. Though... I don't think Hermes is considered a Death God but he's been contracted to collect souls.

[ There's a thoughtful hum as she thinks about that. She wishes she could ask him how that works. ]

Maybe he could if he had the time to do so. And maybe that's the difference, it's like a hierarchy? The God of the Dead is at the top and able to control all things related to death but a Death God can't? [ These are questions for Hades! She's just a flower goddess. ]

[halforc]

[ Gods are so complicated. ]

So if there was a God of Cheese, would they have domain over all cheese but never be able to favour a particular kind? Cheddar scandals.

Hades, God of Cheese.

[ragingnature]

If we must use your example, I suppose they could favour cheddar but they'd still be a god over all types of cheese.

I mean, I'm the Goddess of Spring. I might favour pink roses over other types of flowers but that doesn't make me the Goddes of Pink Roses.

[ She shouldn't laugh at that but she does. ]

His jokes can be a little cheesy.

[halforc]

[ Heh, cheesy. ]

You're the Goddess of Pink in general, I think you get to have domain over everything in those shades.

[ragingnature]

[ Cheesy puns and dad jokes. At least she enjoys them. ]

I think I'll stick to being a goddess of flowers.

[halforc]

[ Aw, well. At least he knows his flirting doesn't work anymore, that's a Hades-centric turnaround and not unexpected. ]

Sounds like a plan.

[ragingnature]

[ Or it's just kind of going over her head. Though again, that probably has a lot to do with the fact that she only has eyes for Hades now that he's around. ]

A single color would get pretty boring, don't you think?

[halforc]

Well, I have all sorts of greens going on here and it is ... a constant party at the old Fjord Town.

[ It is not, in fact, always a party. ]

[ragingnature]

Is it really always a party?

[halforc]

Absolutely! One-hundred percent, non-stop, just ... I never actually sleep.

[ragingnature]

Uh huh. So if I just showed up at three in the morning you'd be awake?

[halforc]

Are you planning on showing up at three in the morning?

[ragingnature]

No. Especially not right now.

But you didn't answer!

[halforc]

Then yeah, sure, I'm party rocking twenty-four-seven currently. Except for right now, obviously. Hard to throw back whiskey on a call and stay cognizant.

[ragingnature]

I don't believe you. But I suppose I'll never know for sure.

[halforc]

A Paladin never lies.

[ragingnature]

Would you swear it on the river Styx?

[halforc]

... Why, what would that entail? Beyond basic honour.
