[The feed starts with a fuzzy blue view, the sound of fabric shifting can be heard over steps on wood. The blur stops and the blue reveals to be someone's jeans. Then the feed moves again and this time it shows an upside down view of a young man: it's clear that Desmond is holding his communication device in his hand by his side and has

I think having issues that Freud would have a field trip with is a prerequisite for this place.

[He smiles lightly]

I'm starting to see that. So this is just not in my head, right?

[voodooing]

Last time I checked I wasn't a figment of someone's imagination, so no, I don't think it is.

[The corners of his lips tug a bit higher]

Oh. I guess I should have figured this out as soon as I saw you. I don't think I can imagine such a looker like you.

[...Someone spent too much time in a certain Italian's memories...Too bad he can't pick his swag]

[And she laughs at that.]

I'm sure you have more of a creative imagination than you think. Unfortunately, this place, is all too real.

[failssassin]

[Hey, he made her laugh! Desmond feels a bit accomplished here]

Yeah, I'd rather not see what my creative imagination can come up with. And that place here being?

[voodooing]

[Congratulations Desmond! BE PROUD.]

The Underworld, the Greek version ruled by Greek gods.

[failssassin]

[He is!]

So I'm dead?

[This is not convenient at all. But Desmond is careful not to let his disappointment show.]

Well, the Catholic Church is going to have a fit when they realize they were wrong all this time.

[Apparently, Hell is ruled over by Hades and not Lucifer.]

I can't say for sure if you're dead or not, but most of us here are alive. Uh, the living are brought by Hecate, and the dead, are brought by Hades. If you're alive, you'll still have a heartbeat and be warm to the touch.

[She can't help but laugh at that statement, she tries really hard to not laugh, but she seriously can't help it.]

They'll probably have a fit when they find out. If they ever do find out.

[failssassin]

I'm still alive. [He can feel the warmth of his hands and the pounding in his head is a good sign that blood still flows in his veins.]

Why did Hecate brought us here? [Seriously, Greek Gods have to stop fucking up with his life.

When the woman laughs, Desmond smiles. It had been meant as a joke after all.]

If they do, I'd pat to see their face, to be honest.

[voodooing]

That means you're on Hecate's side then, at least that's what it looks like.

No idea, she says it's to fight in some sort of war where we're her pawns, but other than that, no clue.

Video;

[failssassin]

And what side are you on?

A war between Gods with humans as pawns? Well, that sounds familiar. [That last part is said under his breath.]

Video;

[voodooing]

Hecate's evidently, although there isn't much side taking going on, other than the fact that Hades sometimes takes control of the dead.

Pretty much, we're like checkers pieces or chess or some other strategic game.

[failssassin]

And what else is there to do here? I mean beside fighting for Gods that probably don't care at all about us?

[Yes, he's very happy to be hear.]

Video;

[voodooing]

Trying to survive. That's pretty much all there is to do here.

[failssassin]

[He nods, his lips thinning lightly with annoyance.]

I guess all I have to hope for is to be able to do that, to the least.
