Such as the grey sisters transportation, could make a fun little ride. Quote Would love that. Might mean that we have to reshuffle some things. Medusa was just after the bus. The bus blew up because of furies… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunamor she/her Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 4 minutes ago, The Clarinetist said: "I would prefer not to talk about my past." Harold says with tears in his eyes. “Oh, ok. I’m sorry.” Jenny felt terrible that she’d made the kid cry. She should’ve remembered that it was often painful for demigods to talk about their past. It was certainly painful for herself. She walked beside Harold silently and awkwardly for a moment. “Do you have any hobbies? Besides running and archery.” Talking about what she liked to do tended to cheer Jenny up, so hopefully that could work for Harold too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you like to do?" “I’d have to say that necromancy is my favorite hobby.” Jenny squinted at the nearby forest, trying to see if any of her reanimated animals were present. It was too far away to tell, unfortunately. ”I have a gift from my dad that lets me detect any death that’s nearby.” She showed Harold her large ruby. ”It’s useful for finding dead animals. I can reanimate small ones. Little birds and squirrels. They’re super cute! A little decayed sometimes, too.” You can reanimate more than just small animals, Jenny.

Lunamor she/her Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Just now, The Clarinetist said: "That's cool. Can you show me?" Harold asks with interest. “Hmmm… one moment please.” Jenny bent low to the ground, holding her ruby above the grass like it was a metal detector. After a few minutes of this, it gave the faintest, briefest flash. It was imperceptible to anyone not familiar with the ruby. She fished around in the grass below the ruby to find a headless grasshopper. Some of its legs were snapped and one of the wings was hanging on by a thread. There was enough of the body left for reanimation, fortunately. She delicately placed it on the center of her palm and held another hand over it. She closed her eyes for a moment. When she moved her hand away, the cricket spasmed in place for a few seconds. The legs clicked back into place with a series of surprisingly loud cracks and the broken wing properly reattached itself. The bug went still for a bit, then suddenly sprung back into motion. It flung itself to its feet and began making noise. It sounded strange, a bit like audio from a scratched record player. Jenny grinned triumphantly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scars of Hathsin he/him Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 Aaron Aaron ran up to catch up with the front of the group. He stops briefly to watch the reanimated grasshopper jump around. That is handy Aaron thinks to himself. They... would like it. He stops his train of thought, "Lets get this quest done first." he mutters He starts flipping a golden drachma in his hand, and walks a bit faster to catch up with Edgar and Jenny. "Sorry if I sounded a bit flippant earlier. I am just a bit nervous to .. get back into the human world, and see if things have changed." he says, trying to plaster a sorry face on. Please take it. "I have an idea on how to get to New York quicker, or maybe beyond, he flips his coin again. The Grey Sisters, they can get us there super quick." he says, "What do you think?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold asks “Well… right now I can’t do much more than a squirrel.” Liar. ”But hopefully I can do more someday. It’s hard to find animals to practice on. No one wants to give their dead pet for someone to experiment necromancy on and the satyrs would kill me if I tried to reanimate something like a deer.” Quit lying, Jenny. ”There is an upper limit, though I’m not sure how high it is. It’s likely not possible for a demigod to reanimate something like a blue whale, although my dad definitely could.” The headless cricket flew away, buzzing past Aaron. She hoped he wouldn’t be too mad about her necromancy. It didn’t seem like something Demeter would approve of. @Scars of Hathsin Edited February 20 by Lunamor Ninja 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was probably a better person than Edgar, a better friend. Edgar turned away. He knew what he was thinking was stupid, that he was probably wrong. That didn’t make it feel better though. And another friend gone. He threw his knife, his anger making him throw it much faster than he meant to. He wasn’t angry at Jenny, he doubted he could. At always, he was angry at himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed really engrossed in his knife throwing; maybe he hadn’t heard Aaron’s question. “Hey Edgar, are you good with us taking the Grey Sisters’ taxi to New York?” She wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page. The Grey Sisters were pretty unnerving, based on what she had heard. That made her excited to meet them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would’ve been outvoted by the majority otherwise, and that wouldn’t help the already brewing conflict between everyone. “Harold seems great! He liked my necromancy. A lot of people don’t, so that’s nice.” She wilted a little. “I asked him about his past, and I think that accidentally made him sad. Talking about his hobbies might’ve cheered him up, but I can’t really tell.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still didn’t look at her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
