“Whoa,” Kane jolts out of his sleep, the book shielding the sun from his face sliding to the floor with a dull thud. He honestly can’t remember if he brought it as shade or to actually read it. One eye winks as harsh sunlight hits his face, surroundings flaming with too bright colors. His back’s got an annoying creak that he tries to stretch out, one arm extending into the air. “Dude, what day is it?” he asks through a yawn to the presence he’s vaguely aware of.

“Uh, it’s Saturday.” Head tilted to the side, he stared down at the other. “Of the year 2024. Bro, you’ve been asleep for two years! We’ve been trying to wake you up but nothing was working so we left you here. Thank the Gods you’re awake now.”

OPEN STARTER. ( anywhere suitable ) @nlupdates​

so many major events have been going on at nemean lion lately. but for nate, there’s one thing on his mind no matter what’s happening. every day, 7 days a week. that special something is… what to wear. and he likes to change outfits a few times each day, like it’s part of his daily 3 meals. 

currently, he’s sporting an outfit that seems simple until you look at the brand names: leather jacket with the words “balmain paris” emblazoned in large letters, and a pair of trousers by saint laurent. he asks, “which shoes do you think go better with this jacket?” he shows two pairs of shoes — versace loafers vs. gucci ankle boots.

“Uh--” He wasn’t good at this type of stuff, fashion to Xavier was a T-shirt and jeans. “Those. It’ll good... I think.” He pointed to the loafers.

“Ooh, um… I don’t know. It’s probably not a code red ‘tell Marina’ type thing but still important. Maybe there’s a suggestion box? There should totally be a suggestion box. A HR department?” A pause, before adding- “Or you could ask Peter Muñoz . He knows, like, everything NL related.”

“I’ll check if there’s a suggestion box and if not, I’ll suggest that they make one.” Would HR even care about hero cards? Wait, did a place like this even have an HR department? Wicked. “Peter Munoz, yeah I know him, surprisingly. I think I met him like... once? Yeah, I’ll try to talk to him about it.”

“probably not daphne or peter off the jump.” it’s certainly an idea, probably could even extend to the ambassadors too, and he has a feeling they would love that. “akane, maybe? if i was anything more than a numbers guy, i’d offer my help.” 

Okay, don’t talk to Daphne or Peter, got it. “Who’s Akane?” He was still trying to learn all of the names and faces of everyone here. “That’s fine, man! At least you would offer help. That’s something to me.”

        ❛  … WHAT’S  ‘ MONSTERS UNIVERSITY ’ ?  ❜  maybe  nl  was  branching  out ,  also  catering  to  children  of  monsters  rather  than  gods ?  she  wasn’t  sure ,  and  it  sounded  stupid .  ❛  probably  peter  but  i’m  not  sure  he’ll  buy  your  idea .  what’s  the  point  of  trading  cards ?   sounds  like  a  big  waste  of  time ,  ❜   and  money .

“You don’t know Monsters University?” He looked at her with disbelief. “Come on now, Monsters Inc.? Sully and Mike? Damn, do you live under a rock?” That had to be the case because what! “We can sell them of course, to the... humans? Is that what we call non-demigods?” Xavier asked, slightly drifting off topic. “But yeah, we can sell them and have people trade them like baseball cards.”

“So are hero trading cards a thing? Ya’ know, like in Monsters University?” Great movie, one of his favorites probably. “If not then who do I need to talk to make them a thing?”
