The hair thing and the swamp monster lived happily ever after.  Good for them.  Are these the 'higher ups' people talk about--the powers above the deities?  If so, I don't fully understand why we haven't staged a coup.

Yesterday was the best Mother's Day I've been through.  Draw what conclusions you will from that.

Yesterday was Mother's Day. That makes it early May, correct?

[absinthe_eyed]

May eleventh, yes.

[lt_alenko]

Noted.

I'm sorry. I didn't introduce myself. I'm Lieutenant Kaidan Alenko of the Alliance Marines. You can just call me Kaidan, though.

[absinthe_eyed]

It's fine. It's nice to meet you, Kaidan... I'm Justin.

I've never heard of the Alliance Marines.

[the_bastard_ds]

Mmhmm. Or atleast, that's what we suspect. The deities don't seem to have any power of them.

And gotta agree about the Mother's day.

[absinthe_eyed]

I wonder who the deities actually have power over.

I'm glad someone does.

[the_bastard_ds]

Other than us?

[absinthe_eyed]

Do they have power over us? Who's to say that their higher ups don't control us as well as the deities? The deities may make a show of their power, but I'm not convinced that they have as much as they would like us to believe.

I don't get why very powerful beings would waste their time messing with people. They could be doing something else.

I think it's been the happiest Mother's Day yet....I didn't do anything at all for it.

[absinthe_eyed]

They could do something good. Or maybe they were doing something good and we can't understand what it was.

That's the best way to celebrate it.

How are you doing?

[chasingmorning]

Maybe. But good for us? Good for them?

You did the same? I almost feel guilty.

Better now that hair monster is gone.

[absinthe_eyed]

Good for the universe as a whole? I don't know.

Yes. ...Why?

Mm. It was interesting, though, while it was here. It made going near faucets and drains exciting.

[dreamsofnoah]

Don't we have better things to do than bother about the deities~?

[absinthe_eyed]

Not usually.

[dreamsofnoah]

Yes you do. Like playing with me~.

[absinthe_eyed]

What do you want to play?

[denyinurgod]

The monsters. Did you interact with them?

...Best Mother's Day?

[absinthe_eyed]

Not directly, no.

By far.

[denyinurgod]

Ah.

...Why?

[absinthe_eyed]

Did you?

Because my mother wasn't here.
