[ della has a slightly serious look on her face... but for those who know her, there's definite playfulness in her eyes. ]

This is one of those "I can't believe I have to say this" kind of deals, so buckle up, folks.

Guys? I know I'm really amazing, very cool, and all around unbelievable. I'm so many things, it's hard to list them all. But one thing I'm not?

A deity. Yes, I am in fact, 100%, absolutely and truly not a goddess. And no, I'm not a demi-goddess either. Not a single trace of divinity in me. I won't name names, but this has happened about three or four times now. Just thought I'd mention it in case there's anyone else out there with this assumption.

... Y'know what? It's a new month, and that means we're getting newbies. Maybe now's a good time for everyone to sweep any other misunderstandings under the rug. So, if there's anything you wanna clear up about yourself, your world, your species, whatever, go for it.

( Hi again. ) Is this not common knowledge?

[controlsthedie]

Back on my world, I've been mistaken for Lord Hades, Lord Ares, or... Lord Eros.

[ He spits out that last name like it's one of the worst ones to be mistaken for. Pretty winged god... must be Eros, right? What a mess. Those assignments never go smoothly. ]

[almukhtar]

None of these names are familiar to me. I assume, at least, Lord Hades to be like Osiris? ( One sec. ) In that they lord over the domain of the dead.

[controlsthedie]

Lord Hades is the God of the Dead. Lord Ares is the God of War. Lord Eros... is one of the Gods of Love....

[almukhtar]

Oh, you have a problem with love? ( WOW. He's SUPER SHOCKED. )

[controlsthedie]

I have a problem when it interferes with me doing my job.

[almukhtar]

( What. This clearly confuses him. ) Why would love interfere with death? ( we love a death this makes no sense. )

[controlsthedie]

[ He sighs. ]

There are many different ways both mortal and divine. Death is supposed to be neutral, and yet they expect me to bend the rules for them.

[almukhtar]

Shame that their sense of love is so weak they think death will end it, though why divine try to interfere simply baffles me. Tell me more about your process? I would like to know.

[helborn]

[Pardon Casper as he laughs hysterically at that last one.]

Well I mean, 'tall, dark, and handsome' fits the description...

[controlsthedie]

... Is that how Lord Eros is thought of in your world?

[helborn]

It's the stereotypical description of a mysterious yet sexy stranger.

[controlsthedie]

All right... but I am Death.

[ ... One of them, at least. ]

I'm there to cut their thread, not to meddle in their love life.

[ By the way, Aphrodite, he does not appreciate being meddled with! He was just fine with not feeling things. He's not even on the same world right now! ]

[helborn]

I mean... it doesn't mean you're not attractive.

[And some people are attracted to danger. Or morbid things - goths sure are.]

[zombiemessiah]

The worst part is him not noticing makes it better. It's downright adorable.

[controlsthedie]

There is nothing about death that is adorable.

[fivemilesdeep]

Oh, he's definitely attractive.

[Saying it is a bit of a gamble, but...it's also a fact.]

[controlsthedie]

[ Thanatos is about to respond with his complete confusion when Mort chimes in saying that he thinks Thanatos is pretty too. ]

Mort!

[springforth]

I mean, sometimes that's more attractive after all. Not everyone wants sunshine-y perky people. Muscles are pretty appealing as well. Just saying.

[almukhtar]

( Hi hello, local egyptian here. love a death. ) It is certainly more attractive. Who wouldn't want to be greeted by that when passing from one world to another?

[controlsthedie]

[ This... this is awkward. He doesn't know how to react to this. ]

Persephone, you too?

[dyingpro]

Come on, Than, you're definitely attractive! If you're mistaken for Lord Eros then that means you objectively have to be handsome, the mortals wouldn't mistake you for him otherwise!

[Zag you are NOT HELPING]

[fivemilesdeep]

[The illusions accused Thanatos of being attracted to the boss's son. Thanatos admitted he feels fluttery around Zagreus. Mort is certainly on to something there too, at least according to Lagos.]

[So Ryo is going digging.]

So you think he's attractive too?

[controlsthedie]

Tsch, quit joking, Zag.

[controlsthedie]

What it means is that those mortals need to pay attention to what's actually happening.
