where am i? i was relaxing in mount Olympus, because zeus was missing and i had one less jerk in there and now im here.
(She wondered straight into the woman) oh.. you must be new here. This place is called the officialverse .. and I’m afraid that there is a guy named Zeus here.. he’s my great uncle, I think?
Fuck.. But uh.. Hi.. I'm persephone. Do you also know Hades?
Hello, Persephone. My name’s Melody. And I think so.. there’s a weird kid that keeps claiming that Hades is my father, but that we forgot each other because of some big.. reset thing ? I don’t know myself, haha.. but I know where he lives if you need help finding him
Oh well.. he's my ex husband, thsts all.. dman it both gods i wished to avoid are here
Oh, that is a bit awkward... well uh.. I’m not sure about any other gods but I know that the Hercules guy is here..? He’s part god, right..? I think he’s technically my uncle or cousin or something but I’m not sure
ah, i know the legendary Hercules. if your.. posiedents..? great granddaughter, hes your cousin. because zeus.
(She nods slowly) that seems about right.. and yeah, I think I’ve heard it mentioned that Poseidon’s my great grandpa... I never met him though
Yeah.. i wouldnt want you to meet him. of the big three, my ex is probably the one i'd associate most.
It’s strange, you know.. I think a lot of people are the most afraid of him, but the moment you read about any of the things Zeus and the rest of the family did... hades seems so.. tame. Cold, even
Hades was tricked to rule the underworld anyway... when i came down to hjm, i was named kore, and Zeus changed my namento persephone bdcause i caused a ruckus...
(She giggled a little) how did you cause a ruckus..?
I caused some chaos in the underworld and refused to return to olympus.
(She nodded curiously) what kinda chaos?
lets just say i was about to cause a uprising against zeus but eventually ate seeds of a pomegranate
Ooh what did the pomegranate seeds do? (She’s completely entranced)
theyre considered the seeds of the underworld so i have to spend 6 months in the underworld every year. I'm still civil with hades because of thst and unlike zeus and his failures to stay loyal, i dont want to just cut out the one god that is pretty chill out of my life
Makes sense to me! I’ve been through some chaos in my life, too, you know. I’m actually running away from my parents right now because my dad tried to drown me and my mother apparently cursed me before I was born.. (she shrugged sadly) anyways, do you need help finding anything? Maybe a place to stay? (She seems hopeful)
running from problematic parenfs... sounds like why i.meant to the underworld in the first place... I can be your mother from now on... or at least care for you like a mother should.. if you want andnif we find a place to stay.
(She smiled widely) I’d love that.. I really need someone right now.. and considering you’re a goddess, maybe you could help me find out whatever the hell im even cursed with, since I have no clue.. all I know is it came from a sea witch’s lair.. and yeah, let’s go find somewhere to stay. I think I know a place.. there’s some weird people there but it seems safe enough
Okay young one.. i dont know enough about your curse right now but i can try my best.
(She nods understandably) I don’t know all that much about it yet either, but I think I know where to look. For now, I think we should find somewhere to stay.. (she leads her to a tiny apartment, to which she has a key to. When they enter, the smell of alcohol instantly fills the air. A few children sit on the ground) hey guys! I found someone else who needs our help. (She looks over at Persephone) are you hungry?
*The smell of alcholol hit her stunned her for a second, remembering something but shook it off* Yeah a little bit.
Sweet! Just give me a minute. (She turns to one of the kids) hey Starfish, did Leela go to the store today?
(The mentioned kid looked up from her book and squinted at the other girl) yeah, she brought home some Wendy’s. It’s in the fridge. Whose the new lady, anyways?
Oh, she’s my new mom. Isn’t that right, @officialpersephone? (She started to heat up a burger for the goddess. When it dinged she handed it over) eat up!
*she took it and smiled*thank you *and she started to eat... she was pretty quick*
(While waiting, melody went over to one of the other little girls, who was doodling something) heya Annie, whatcha drawing?
(Ignoring the question, Anne-Marie walked over to @officialpersephone with a smile) Heya, look what I drew! It’s you!!!
(She even added stickers. She seems proud of herself)
*she smiled* Oh! its beautiful. thank you. none of the muses themselves could make a piece of artwork better *she was really kind and extra to the children.*
(She nodded happily) thank you miss!
Say, why are you purple, anyways? Are you a mermaid?
Oh no.. i'm usually called a goddess but im more half goddess that was made into a full goddess.
Hmm.. well I don’t think I’ve seen you here before.. I know there’s that Zeus god guy.. and another one, but I don’t know his name... I think the other god is the one I stole 50 bucks from yesterday, though..
Okay, theres two i know are here. zeus, stay away fromthat creep, and hades, my ex husband... but hhes a chill guy
Wait, Hades is the blue one, right? He’s the one I stole from yesterday. (She gasps suddenly)
Please don’t tell him that I stole from him..
its fine, im sure he wont mind sweetie.. j*persephone petted her head gently* i wont tell, lips sealed.
(She seems relieved. She rubs against persephones hand before jolting up excitedly)
Do ya wanna see my collection of bones? I save all of em after I eat!!
Oh. Sure little one!
(She wags her tail and leads her to a pile in the corner)
see? Aren’t they cool? I have to keep them here because my parents say that I can’t bring them home ‘cause they scare my Papi really bad. He even fainted before! He’s okay now... so, are you thirsty?
uh sure!
(She hurries over to the fridge and grabs a caprisun from it and a flask of vodka. She stabs her caprisun violently and drinks from the hole instead of her straw and hands Persephone the flask) I hope it tastes good! I bought it this morning
"oh.. thank you
.. 'that explains the smell'*she thought as she opened the flask, she wasnt one for alchol but she' drink a bit just to not upset the girl
No problem! I’ve always wondered what it tastes like myself but uncle bender says kids can’t drink it.. he says it’s for robots only but I saw some humans drinking it so I guess it’s fine (she finished her caprisun and threw it at one of the other kids as hard as she could before grabbing a stick off the floor)
so.. do you wanna .. play?
*she got a sip but couldnt get much more and sealed the vodka "oh sure... one minute.."
Ok! (She starts chasing her tail while she waits)
*she put the vodka back in the fridgw and coughed a bit* Okay.. im ready
Perfect! Just hold still... (she tackles Persephone, lightly biting her hand and tugging)
*she let annemarie bite her hand she did get a better look around the apartment.*
You alright Persephone? (She rubbed the back of her head in shame) I know this place isn’t very clean right now, but the adults usually help us clean up today, so they should be back soon.. it shouldn’t look so bad then
Oh no! its fine... im just trying to get a good look jf the place... i need ti chdck my clock to see how much longer i have before i have to stay in the underworld until spring
Oh that’s awkward ... you have to stay with Hades even though he’s your ex?? (She hummed in thought) I know that when my parents separated they didn’t wanna be anywhere near each other... and isn’t that gonna be weird now, considering the underworld changed here? There technically wasn’t one when we all arrived, I think, and when mr hades got here he just set one up himself... it’s in the abandoned ikea we passed on the way here..
it made me and hades have a civil seperation though, and dint make our dsughter go through torture.
Oh... that’s good.. (She seems a bit jealous of the mentioned daughter. Why couldn’t her parents have been civil?) she sounds very lucky
I still regret leaving her alone in my flower world with my mother demeter... aphrodite should go to the deepest pits of hell for what she did.
(She pouted at that) what did Aphrodite do to her..?
she burnt part of my little mesperyian's face
That’s... that’s terrible. (She sighed and let out an awkward, strained laugh) the more I hear about the so called “good” gods, the more I realize that they’re not as good as they claim...
i understand. i'm not even full goddess myself so im not sure if i should count as a 'good goddess' since i have my flaws
Well... you seem kind and understand to me, so I think you’re better than any of the “good” ones..
oh.. thank you... uh.. sorry i never asked your name
Oh! It’s alright. My name’s Melody. I’m the daughter of ex queen Ariel. She ruled over Atlantica.. she was part goddess, you might know her
Oh sweetie i dknt think i do... the inly part god i knew was Hercules.. and i wasnt exactly close to him
That’s ok.. I kind of wish I never knew her, either.. (she sighed) is that bad..?
thats perfectly normal, melody...
(She gave her a tender smile) thank you, miss Persephone.. it means a lot to me
