Fantasy Welcome to the Pantheon (Reboot - Always Accepting!)

Ilim sighed, trying to put aside her jab about Munashe. Typical Nox, then. Ilim had been the second god to meet Nox and he had disliked her from the start. In fact, he didn't know what infuriated him the most. Her condescending ways, her insistence on being called Mother, or everyone going along with that simply because she had, allegedly, been there first. The worst thing was that there was nothing to do about it. Nox rarely listened to anyone.
"Whatever then. Try not to upset too many people or I'll know. Look around for a bit, how many natural things can you find in the city? I'll let you think on that." He looked at his watch. "Urgh, now I've missed the breakfast menu. The café I was going to has these wonderful Danish pastries from 4 o'clock til 9. Oh well, their cinnamon rolls are good as well, I suppose." He smiled at her and gave a mocking salute before turning and walking onwards to the café.

Nox watched him go. He always got into a huff when she came to visit. He of all people should know better.


'I miss the First. He was always such a good boy.'


Rolling her illusory eyes, she faded into the shadow of a passing bird and popped up on a tall roof, looking out over the city. She made the shadows into a chair and sat gracefully.


"One day Ilim, you'll see that everything I do is for you children, immortal or not." The shadows whispered to him as he walked to the café.

Vayne was bored out of her mind, and she had seen Virian walk toward whats her face's room. She wanted to go drinking, so she found the door and opened it. "Virian! I wanna go drinkin!" @Safety Hammer

"Oh! Drinking sounds fun."

 

[VanRIPPED]

"Duh! C'mon, hurry yer ass up!" She said, leaving the door open as she started walking.

Hitch arrives in Olympus - "ah, so the fabled excess and indulgences of old were not, like so many other things... (raised eyebrow) oversold." From behind Vayne, slightly down the hallway and moving towards her - came a voice that sounded equally placating and patronizing - the vowels spread out irregularly to convey the full scope of the speaker's disingenuous and bored state. "As it is, I am rather new here... directions to our dorms, if you will, dear." The tall man, dressed in what looked to be a ten thousand dollar suit, stood with something of a grimace vying for a smile, waiting for her response. His eyes raking over all things in the area while soaking and sorting them to memory, while his hands fiddled with his umbrella - more so out of habit than nerves.

"Close my damn door!"

Vayne looked back. "Dorms? We dont gots dorms, we gots rooms" She said. "Dur, this aint a human collage er sumthin. I dunno where yer room would be, yer new right?" Then she heard what's her face.

"Close my damn door!"

"Its yer door, you close it!"

"Ah, with all this talk of drink and debauchery you would not blame me for concluding otherwise... the direction of the rooms then. Or someone more informed, If you will..."

 

[VanRIPPED]

"Debauchery? The hell is that? Eh, nevermind! Whatcha god of, expensive lookin guy" She asked. "I guess that determines where ya stay!"

"Vast data accumulation and application/moderation of social networking within a global tele/sata communications framework - And, Yes - I have some talent with finance, not that it matters much anymore... The prospect of eternal dividents sort of undermines the whole initial idea." He grinned at her, his nose crinkling as he fixed her grammar in his head out of habit.

 

[VanRIPPED]

"Uh huh... Well, I dunno about tech people, I dunno where yer room would be. But hey! On a more serious note, if ya cant find it, y'could always bunk with me" She said, flashing a grin. "On a more more serious note, I could always just try to help ya find yer room. Though me and Virian were gonna go drinkin..."

"well then, you and... Virian is it? Well, you two enjoy yourselves and I will meander about. Maybe I will get lucky and find it on my own." He grins at her one more time, before turning around and walking down the hallway in the direction of the gardens, all the while absentmindedly tapping away on his phone and twirling his umbrella.

(Hmm, oh! You can cross Daimon about to destroy little Maw?)

"All you need to do is open up a white door. Your room will immediately be formulated to your dream house, bla bla bla."

 

[VanRIPPED]

"Ugh, I heard that too many times. Let's go!" Vayne yanked Virian in the direction of the bar, tugging him along.

"And you are (sniffs air)... Virian I presume? Halfway Helpful. Indebted I am, surely." Another grin, then Hitch leaves them, and makes his way to one of the white doors, wondering if he might manage a perfect replica of Neuschwanstein... or at least an appropriation of it.

"Yes. Formerly Dionysus."

Hitch calls back up the hallway where he left them "charmed - Hitch Magnuson - pleasure I am sure."

Nox was enjoying the sun from the roof she sensed the inquisitive dear of a mortal. Opening her illusory eyes she looked over her shoulder at a small boy with ripped clothes, a broken backpack and a black eye.


"Well hello there little one."


"Who- who are you? How did you get up here? The door was locked."


"Oh I can be anywhere I wish. As for who I am, I'm the Other Mother. You may call me Nox."


"I know you. You're that goddess from that game my friend plays. Why are you cosplaying on my roof?"


"Game? Cosplay? My dear I don't know what you think I am, but I am the real deal." She commanded her chair away and used the boy's shadow to carry him to herself. She kneeled before him.


"Now... Jamie. I know your parents told you not to talk to strangers, but I'm not a stranger. You've known me your whole life. I'm in every shadow, every dark room and every night sky. I even know how you got that black eye."


"Are- are you an angel?" He looked awestruck.


"Oh I'm much better than some pathetic angel or it's god. I'm the primordial soul of all darkness. The job has a lot more perks, and people actually know if whether or not I approve when they pray to me." She straightened his clothes and enveloped them in darkness, when it receded, Jamie was dressed in an expensive, tailor-made 3 piece suit; it was a dark gray suit with a silver shirt and crimson kerchief. She then covered his black eye in an eye patch of cold darkness and covered it with an illusion. She even mad his backpack black leather to match his new new shoes.


"There, much better. You look quite debonair dear."


"Thank you! This is amazing. I always knew that gods were real, and I got something better than them!" He does up and gave her a tight hug around her stomach.


She reached down and hugged back, patting and styling his hair. She released him.


"I have one more thing for you; a gift of power. With it, you can use the darkness to improve anything you wish. The same way I improved your clothes. Know that you need to have enough darkness nearby or it won't work. I'm going to give this to you for free. Just make sure to remember me, alright?" Stretching out her hand, she produced a black rose with star studded thorns.


Jamie nodded in understanding as he reached out to take the rose, which promptly became a vine that raced up his arm and down his shirt to plant itself within his heart.


"Use my gift wisely, Jamie dear." She stood to her first height and summoned a door of darkness behind her, which opened slowly and revealed a mountain, whose top was lost amongst the clouds.


"I will. Thank you, Mother." He stood taller and his voice was more sure.


She gone through the door in an instant.


"It begins..." Ilim would be so pleased.

Having yet to spot a door, Hitch came upon what could only be described as a giant Wolf-Man. A moment of hesitation, a habit of his still recent humanity, before he realized that he was in fact, immortal. "I did not know pets were allowed... It's good to know this before I make my rooms, so that I might request some furniture covers - you know, shedding and all..." He found the prospect of irritating something he would usually have fled from to be rather exhilarating, and could therefore not resist. He grimaced at the beast in front of him.

(Respect to this man haha)


Daimon about had his jaws around the little being that had jumped on his tail before he heard a rather condescending voice. He looked back, baring his teeth and his fur along his spine spiked. "What did you say?" He snarled, stalking toward Hitch.

"shall I pretend to be meek, and lie - or shall I grin and pretend it was a joke... Then again, you do seem like the kind to not take kindly to such things. I am not much of an expert, but i hear demeanor is all in the breeding." Hitch looks up at the incoming beast, registering his movements, his demeanor, his clothing, which side he favors, before smiling and tilting his head slightly backwards - remembering that somewhere he read it registers as aggression to pack animals.

"I suggest you walk away before I crush your head like a grape" He snapped, now that he was close enough to this man he stood on his back legs, making him a lot taller. "I have no patience for things who think they are better than the God of Lycans" He snarled, his sharp teeth still bared and his ears flat agaisnt his head.

"calm down Fido, entertain the hubris of New Immortal won't you? If you kill me now, then this will devolve into some eternal tit-for-tat. Refrain, and we might even guffaw over it one day over a bowl of whiskey..." - Hitch smirked, before dipping his head for a moment, before disappearing entirely. (GTG - have work)

 

[VanRIPPED]

Daimon growled, "Annoyances" He snarled, looking back to see Maw gone. He went back to his spot, curled up by a heat vent.
