[Here's another newbie! Jessica turns on the recording, has that awkward moment of waiting for it to start.]

now? ok! Hello everyone! I'm Jessica. I'm new here and I've got a few questions.

[She holds up one finger.] Is killing kaiju the only way to make money around here?
[A second finger.] What sort of style clothes do you wear to a wedding in this town?
[A third finger.] Does anyone have experience setting up a shrine?

Thanks in advance! If I can help any of you out with healing or monster clean-up, count on me!

[She flashes the camera a smile, then has another moment of blinking and fumbling to disconnect the recording.]

huh? nah

wouldn’t expect one either, if that’s why you’re asking

my tributes aren’t exactly for modern tastes is the simplest way to put it

hahaha then nothing to worry about

it’s the latter.

ereshkigal and I are from cultures past their heyday. we get to hang around because we have important jobs.

and from what yato told me seems like he wasn’t super popular to begin with

yep! we’re both gods of death too but from real different cultures. the sumerians (hers) were on the other side of the world and millennia apart from the azteca (mine)

so you’re better off asking her about her stuff. I know some of it just from knowing her here but I’m sure I’d miss some stuff. she likes flowers though can tell you that

as for me

my temples weren’t the grandest technically but nothing to scoff at. they were the place where kings were blessed and life was offered up and renewed. a sacrifice placed on my altar would offer up their hearts. a warrior who fights and dies valiantly will have my favor. things like that

jaguars, polished obsidian, and blood and hearts are all my symbols. so. not for the faint of heart. but that’s just how I roll

yep! it’s why I don’t ask for anything

and besides. demanding that kinda tribute doesn’t make sense outside of our cosmology. it wouldn’t mean as much if there wasn’t the belief behind it yknow?

luckily I’m a chatty and personable god even with my macabre domains though

ha. you’re a good kid aren’t you?

first of all, yeah I was serious. sounds fun

second, it’s not lonely but I’m also in a unique position. I still get to chat with people. the souls of the dead come and have a little talk with me before I escort em to paradise

hmm… I don’t know about anyone, but I definitely have an affinity for spirits. they’d have to be lingering though. if they end up in a different afterlife than mine, then they’re off limits. call it a non-compete agreement more or less

every culture has their own afterlife, and I’m just one part of mine. I got to shape it the way I want, and that starts out with a chat

call it a quick therapy session before I escort em to paradise

yeah probably not. I wont pry, but I assume you’re hoping to chat with someone? because if that’s the case I’ll say don’t worry about it too much. easier said than done I know but focus on living is always my advice

anyways

that’s the idea yeah. people that make it my way tended to have died pretty miserably so. having a place to chat it out is better for them

yep. it’s called mictlampa.

basically a five star resort! lots of rest and relaxation is the idea. anything a soul can want or that’s the hope every time I update it

have to get good r&r before you continue your journey after all. the path to rebirth ain’t a easy one but people take it when they’re ready

makes it not so bad

least I can do since I'm a real pain in the ass for the living hahaha

conflict is good for people but no one likes it after all

[ At first, he's pleasantly surprised that she doesn't balk at his domain, since that's unusual! However, ]

me? apologize??

first of all I can't because someone blocked me

second of all apologize for what? for denying a guy that isn't my boyfriend ISN'T my boyfriend???

[ To himself, Tezcatlipoca definitely groans, because this is a big misunderstanding… But, no, this is what he should have expected, actually. His luck and his role in the universe are absolute, different world be damned.

So. He acquiesces rather easily. ]


she’s that obvious huh

[ There's a lot he wants to reject here, but like she said, she just got here. So, even though it feels like pulling teeth just because he wants to cause more problems like his nature demands... He just keeps it simple. ]

sure. I'll do my best
