Okay. How many gods are here? I've met two and there are three demigods myself included.

and demons while were at it. my father works with demons all the time and my children are demons so no judgement there.

Im just trying to figure out how this place works.

four out of seven? geez.

Oh! Blitzo told me about him. held drag shows.

[book2thehead]

I know. Whatever force brings us to this world seems to have a taste for the divine and powerful, and I suppose our gods are easy to access.

"Drag shows"? What's that?

[refantasma]

its when people dress up as the opposite gender, like really fancy, and put on a routine to music.

[book2thehead]

Oh? That sounds like fun! Do people do these drag shows very often where you're from?

[refantasma]

yes.

though in the big city. not really near where I live. I hear theyre every night in different bars in NYC.

[book2thehead]

Have you ever been to one, then? Or perhaps participated in one?

[refantasma]

no and no. I kinda want to participate tho

[book2thehead]

Well, if all we need is fancy clothes and some music, maybe we can hold a drag show of our own! And if Angel's still here, maybe he'd be interested in joining and helping us out~

[refantasma]

Ill see if hes still around. if not we could def do it during pride. we should have another celebration like we did last year.

[book2thehead]

I would be surprised if no one tries to arrange something like that again this year. Pride is in June, isn't that right? A drag show sounds like it'd be such a fun way to kick things off!

You sure seem to have a lot of friends here now, Nico~

[refantasma]

well I was gone for a month here and awake for a year

so I had a character growth arc and stuff.

[book2thehead]

Ah, you too?? Though I guess if I really was awake, it was only for a day or so. And I didn't have anything quite so impressive going on~

In that case, congratulations on your growth! I suppose that's how you ended up with your [Checks notes.] fifteen children?

[refantasma]

oh they kinda came out of no where. had nothing to do with my character growth.

[book2thehead]

No? Then does that sort of thing just happen very often to gods and demigods in your world?

[refantasma]

weird shit happens all the time.

but Im the only demigod this has happened to.

gods can have kids with anyone, even if theyre the same gender.... but usually just one at a time.

[book2thehead]

Man alive, that must've been quite the shock for your fellow gods and demigods! Do you know why you managed to have fifteen, then?

[refantasma]

lots of dark emotions apprently.

[book2thehead]

[...Nico, your world is so fascinating to Heizou.]

So did you name them all after dark emotions?

[refantasma]

they were named for me.

Despair Isolation Guilt Contempt Sadness Shame Grief Fear Gloom Jealousy Envy Bitterness Stress Rage and Disgust.

Ive... ben through a lot.

[book2thehead]

I see... I'm sorry you had to go through all that. It must've been quite hard on you.

[refantasma]

Things are starting to look up at least.

[book2thehead]

Back home? Or by you having returned here?

[refantasma]

both. This is a nice getaway.

[book2thehead]

It really is, isn't it? I'm quite fond of it, too. :3

Out of curiosity, did you remember anything about this place when you were awake?

[refantasma]

[There's a noticeable pause.]

... itd be easier to say in person. Coffee?
