[ Vi actually gets a text message from her Knight inviting her to come 'chillax upstairs' in one of the comfortable rec rooms near the Dragon's Hide wing. When she makes her way up there, a blonde in combat boots is slumped in a couch, playing X-Box and swearing up a storm into her headset. A small black cat is curled up apparently sleeping on a pillow beside her. ]

Yeah, well why don't you hop a flight and come say that to my foot in your ass? GO DIE IN A CAR CRASH.

Pretty much the Kool Aid guy and just as rude. We are not friends, they are needy, clingy bitches.

[shootfirst]

Well, good thing that's over and done with, then.

[graveflowers]

Right? I think there is a quota for that and I've seriously surpassed mine. Any other giant beast monster will do.

[She scrubs her hands over her face for a second, shaking off the yuck feeling.] Gimme Godzilla any day. Or poodles, those things are vicious.

[shootfirst]

Be careful what you wish for. Hideous human experimentation and liquid zombies were a part of my last fight.

[graveflowers]

Eww, seriously? That's... wicked kinda gross. I don't even like regular zombies. That's, that's just... Yeah. Maybe I'll just wish for poodles. Vicious little fuckers, but you know, milk bone that shit up and you're golden.

[shootfirst]

Nobody likes regular zombies.

Ok, I guess... necromancers, but they're a whole level of fucked up unto themselves.

[ a beat ] Why poodles?

[graveflowers]

Cerberus is a poodle.

[Oh sorry, is that the worst explanation ever? Probably.]

[shootfirst]

Cerberus was a hellhound. I thought that was like, its own special breed of dog.

[graveflowers]

Nope, he's a poodle. I mean, three headed poodle, yeah, so that might be a different breed, but he's still a poodle. Really bitchy poodle, like the one in Oliver.

[shootfirst]

How would you know?

[graveflowers]

He's my dog? Well, technically my mom's. Well, technically he's my step-dad's? But he's totally mine.

[shootfirst]

Are you trying to tell me your mom married Hades?

[graveflowers]

Stockholm syndrome.

[shootfirst]

... Persephone?

[graveflowers]

Uh-huh.

I'm totally not crazy, I promise.

[shootfirst]

I guess I just always figured those gods were actually... myths since they didn't last. But I suppose maybe they were just... [ wait ] So how old are you?

[graveflowers]

I turn 26 in a couple of months. They gods tend to stick around, they're really vain. And you know, Hades' job sort of doesn't end. So I guess, unless people stop dying, he's still in business.

[shootfirst]

Still, when did it start raining half-gods? [ wait a tic ] You don't have, like, a celestial hook up with the elven pantheon by any chance, do you?

[graveflowers]

Tuesday. [See, Vi heard hook up and elven in the same sentence and her brain just went in the complete opposite direction of where it probably should have gone. Who knew she'd be a sucker for guys with pointy ears.] Uh, sorry, what was the question?

[shootfirst]

Do you personally know any of the Selda-whatever? The elf gods? Because we sort of ... have this on-going mission featuring the daughter of one and there are a lot of things we could use some divine insight on.

[graveflowers]

Huh? [Did she just say Zelda?] I'm gonna have to go with no on that one, not ringing any bells. I know a couple smoking hot elves though, I would very happily pump them for information.

[shootfirst]

TMI aside, that's a bummer. I was sorta hoping we might get a divine "in" with Sehanine.

We're sorta dealing with amnesiac daughter, who's a half-mortal, like you, I guess. Really not a fun job.

[graveflowers]

I dunno how much I could have helped anyway, considering I'm half amnesiac myself.

[shootfirst]

Seemed worth a shot.

[graveflowers]

Sorry? I might be kind of useless most of the time, just putting that out there.
