1 ☼ it seems like years since it's been here~

[solarizing]

So I’m just going to do a quick list-format PSA on what I’ve learned within my first few hours of being here

It does smell quite bad, I agree. And I also appear to be part french. How strange is that?

Anyway, welcome to your new home. Enjoy your imprisonment.

[solarizing]

It's not even that it's bad, it's just... Not pleasant. And the French was strange. But then again, it could be worse.

You seem familiar, but I'm not sure if I know your name, miss.

... Thanks?

[encirclingthird]

Ah, I am Amphitrite. I should have said. How rude of me. What is your name?

You're very welcome. Though I did not mean it literally. Just trying to let you know you were imprisoned with the rest of us.

[solarizing]

Right! Amphitrite. It's nice to meet you. I'm Helios, or... Louis Rhodos. But mostly Helios.

Wait, really? Actually stuck? The place of no return? Shit. ... That's foreboding. Are you enjoying it?

[moonstoneglow]

Brother?

[solarizing]

Sis?

... Selene! Great to see you for once! But what exactly is going on?

[moonstoneglow]

We're stuck here. Cronus is throwing a temper tantrum and taking it out on us. Eos is here, too. Oh, darling I'm so glad to see you!

But that means..lewelkgneklgwnsrn

None of us are there to do what needs to be done now.

[solarizing]

But we can't be stuck. That's... Against the laws of nature or something.

Though it's really nice to see you. I'm in 7D of this giant building, and I claim the Brother Card and insist that you come visit and we can catch up, and you can explain this city. Please?

[likesto_talk]

Congratulations, you have been processed, materialized, and replaced.

Helios I take?

[solarizing]

But I'm not that easily replaceable. This isn't good. I'm not to blame if the world catches fire again.

Got it in one! You, kiddo?

[likesto_talk]

You tell that to Cronus baby.

Of course I did, I'm good spotting Olympians. Metis hon, nothing further from a kiddo.

[solarizing]

If I see my uncle, it's so o-

Whoa.

Whoa.

Whoa, hey. I'm not an Olympian.

[menotthink]

All the things the gods used to control have been going on as if you were doing it still. I assume Cronus is making everything still work so that people won't figure out what he is doing.

[solarizing]

That. Is ridiculous.

And slightly creepy, since my horses don't obey anyone else, practically on principle.

Well, I'm Helios if that's not obvious enough. You?

[menotthink]

Cronus generally is.

Maybe they are going by themselves, at this point.

I'm Patroclus. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[solarizing]

So I've heard.

Last time we tried that, we got a nice big desert. But I guess I should trust them.

Right! Nice to meet you too, then. Been here long? I haven't been able to ask anyone who isn't a newbie like me what they think of this place.

[earlyrisingdawn]

Helios! Oh dear brother, you and Selene come here less than a day apart. I am delighted to see you, despite the circumstances.

[solarizing]

EOS. Found you! Or you found me. Either way, there's a sibling party in 7D. You're coming so I can give you a big hug.

It's final.

[earlyrisingdawn]

Whatever you say, Helios. I'll be down in a moment.

[solarizing]

Awesome!

Also, you are apparently going to have to help me find clothing. Don't ask me, just ask Selene when you both get here.
