God. Just when one problem is solved, a million others pop up. I hate this place!

What exploded this time?

[Typed and Screened to Persephone]

[notarrowette]

People's *brains.* We fixed Tim's finally, and now apparently Dick's going insane, there's a rash of amnesia running through the compound, Kon won't wake up and Harth is SPYING ON ME THROUGH THE WINDOWS and telling me not to go outside alone! I am so SICK of this place!

[Typed | Screened]

[poppingseeds]

At least Tim is better?

I know how you feel. Robin is out too, my roommate is up to something, another of my friends is gone, and apparently my mind is holey. Or holy. Or both. I'm still debating on that one. And people keep insisting on strange things, but... no.

And Harth said WHAT to you?!

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable now]

[notarrowette]

Yeah, there is that. Even though...

Robin too? Oh, no. And something's happened to your mind, too? Oh, this place just gets better and better, doesn't it? Are you okay?

He said he's been--watching me. He mentioned my pajamas.

[poppingseeds]

Yes. He's asleep too.

I'm... okay. I guess. I'm not hurt, anyway.

Look. Are you going to be okay, though? Are you safe where you are?

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[notarrowette]

I'm sorry.

I'm glad you're not hurt... Is there anything I can do?

Yeah. I mean--I live with Tim. It's pretty safe here, and Harth can't come in uninvited--it's... just really, really creepy that he can watch me like that. And the whole thing about not going outside alone just... ticks me off, honestly.

Is there anything I've told you, about before Econtra?

Well, if you need someone to go with you when you go out, I volunteer myself. As much as it sucks.

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[notarrowette]

Hmm. We haven't talked a lot, really. Maybe if there's something someone's told you that you aren't sure about, I can help? I mean--I know who you are. (That sounds silly, but do you know what I mean?)

Thanks. I appreciate it--that means a lot.

Mostly I mean that silly notion about my being a goddess and all...

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[notarrowette]

........

Um. You are a goddess--a nature goddess. You grow things... You don't remember?

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[poppingseeds]

I remember a farmhouse and my parents? And I grow things, of course. That's what my family does, grow things. Farmers and all.

I just don't remember anything, well, divine about me. As far as I know, all the gods are dead, aren't they? Well with the exception of Urd and her sisters, but they're not from my world, so.

[notarrowette]

Oh, boy. I--wow. I wish I knew more specifics about you, Persephone, but all I really have is... Well, where I'm from you are sort of a myth. But we're from different worlds, so how you became a goddess in yours might be different.

But you are definitely one here. I've seen you grow pumpkins from seed to full-size in a moment, and wither the grass when you're upset. And you can apparently smite.

[poppingseeds]

Er... I'm just named after a goddess. I don't even really remember what she's the goddess of, but it is a pretty name, isn't it?

Smite? I mean, the growing things... like I said, that's what my family does as farmers, but I don't recall any of us being able to smite things.

...But you're all serious that I'm a goddess?

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[notarrowette]

Well--you might be named after her. Like I said--we haven't talked about our pasts that much, unfortunately. It *is* a very pretty name, though.

Um--yeah. I'm sorry--this has to be really confusing for you. Have you... tried doing anything with your powers? You had a special lamp that let you go out at night...

[Typed | Screened | Unhackable]

[poppingseeds]

Well... not much. The flowers were talking to me a little while ago and I think I was the one that made some dandelions come out of the ground.

A special lamp? Don't we all get tired at night, though?

I suppose taking a look at both is worth a try.

It can't hurt--if you'd like some company, I'd be happy to help however I can.
