Children of the Gods (Important poll #12306)

@Rohie I don’t really have much to add, except for the fact that I noticed as I was playing through (again) as a tiny MC and she hugged (tall) uncle Hades; it acts as if she’s tall enough for her head to rest against his shoulder and peer out from behind his hair. It honestly doesn’t bother me that much, but at the moment that’s the only thing I can think of that sticks with me (if even in the VERY slightest.)

[spoiler]In a quick moment, you bring your arms around Uncle Henry’s tall frame. You hear him stifle a gasp of surprise, and he is stiff in your arms, unmoving.

Just hug me back. Just do it, you beg.

Then, his arms wrap around you, and you nearly burst with relief. He smells like smoke and vanilla and every evil thing your aunt had warned you about in this world, but he’s here. He’s here.

After a moment, you hear a comical “Aw” fill the quiet space. You peak from behind Uncle Henry’s hair and spot Hermes, floating off the ground, a hand resting on his cheek. [/spoiler]

My MC is pretty agreeable, for the most part. She basically lives by a code of “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, shame on both of us.” Her reaction to people talking about her death like it were nothing would most likely be something along the lines of feeling a sense of betrayal and hurt. Hurt that anyone could see her for anything other than what she really is. Morals/ethics are her #1. She’d never even hurt a fly if she had the choice.

PEACE, LOVE, EMPATHY -Celeste Angelis :kissing_heart:

Dear god when is this gonna be updated?!

@poison_mara Isn’t “killing them with kindness” the best way to do it? :imp:

It’s against forum rules to ask for updates. In the most cases the author themself doesn’t know, so the only thing asking does is putting needless pressure on them. Just give it time.

Oh I already see it you will crush them, but still visit them in the hospital. You broke all their bones but bring them flowers. Everybody likes you better because you are so nice. Even the person that you trashed likes you better as themself. That is really devilish.

Or you just suffocate them with kittens, that’s the more direct way.

Not that we know of… :smile: It just takes a lot more patience to get it done that way, but I’d personally find it more rewarding than stooping down to their level.

Also… @Sammysam Death by kittens?! That is DEFINITELY how I wanna go. :heart_eyes:

That’s the best way to go. Buried by little fluffy furballs that purr and meow. The purrfect way to go out of the world.:smile_cat::smile_cat::smile_cat:

Wait, who is it that you want to be considerate towards the MC? The strangers in Olympus who don’t know us? They’re as ignorant to the situation (if not more) than we are. They basically think we’re here to destroy the world or some stupid shit. Why would you want to even be associated with people who don’t know us, have no reason to care for us, and will potentially start being fake as soon as we do something godlike? Alot of people in the hallway start to randomly smile and wave at us…why is that? I’d prefer that they stay away from me than have their acknowledgement by them being hostile or fake…but I mean that’s how you feel and that’s fine, I just don’t understand why.

:joy: Hahaha! You’re sooo funny. I could’ve sworn we had a pair of hospital pants and a shirt on, or was it a hospital gown?

Well, depending on the path you’ve chose Calypso says that we’re a “natural warrior.” So apparently we have some great mastery with weapons if we’re being considered as a “natural warrior.”

Or maybe she is just being polite. My allure girl has zero combat training. She just try to dodge and defend and just attacks with the same skills of a potato. I hope my magician could finally use magic instead of have to grab weaponry she even doesn’t know how to handle…

You at least have 20 - 30% of combat, right? I mean I know you won’t be kicking people in the head :joy: anytime soon but you should still have an alright percentage. You’ll probably use magic too…later on. Maybe the pill is a super sonic bomb if you throw it or gives you some of Zeus’ powers.

I started without training my combat in the Institute gives me 35. But before that I have zero and it is a really fake 35 because my girl couldn’t really attacking straight and Sage beat my ass. So no I am no Buffy vampire slayer. And my daddy weapon is a Viagra pill (Nobody explained me a thing about what that is and looks like Viagra. For all my Girl knows It’s Viagra and she believes so)

The underdog archetype is prominent in the game, I guess. You work your way up from the “Big Bad (Possibly) Evil Essence” to “Please Save Us, Dear Hero, Here Is My First Born Child As Sacrifice” or you just, you know, hit the reset button on the Universe and try again in the morning. But, if you read carefully, the citizens are starting to warm up to you. (RE: those suspicious smiles and waves from passing Demigods…stranger and stranger. Since when do people like the MC? Absurd.)

Also, in regards to Sage /snicker\ choking you out; she’s a child of Hermes. It wouldn’t matter of you were a lean-mean fighting machine; she has unparalleled speed and agility.

Lack of shoes are another oversight, along with lack of keys to the dormitory. And…you’re not half naked. (Where did that come from?)

But if this leads into another discussion of clothing… :sweat:

Haha! You get a fucking viagra pill to last longer in the trials😜. Yeaahhh, realistically I would’ve bodied Sage…or she would have at least got kicked in the stomach while tainting my throat with her hands. Also, we did not get our ass kicked because that was a sneak attack and she’s weak for that. We actually told her to square up before we were going to try anything unlike her. I don’t even understand how Adonis’ muscled ass couldn’t drag her off of us before we blacked out though.
