Sigyn didn’t know what was wrong with her. Every so often, strange new sensations and ideas skipped through her system giddily, making her momentarily lose herself in the…chaotic element of those rogue feelings. Was it just the weather? She supposed that the climate could have something to do with it. After all, the Greek and Egyptian pantheons ( Read more... )

Seth remained on his couch, continually confused by the onslaught of females into his home. He kept forgetting where they'd come from, and upon snapping out of his daydreams would find himself rather surprised at the faces that he encountered.
