I got a question. What do the deities do around here, other than 'sacrifice' pony-people and otherwise strive to make our time here as shitty as possible?

[She had a brother. And the brother was a villain. And then she got into a fight with some dick-head kid. And then she didn't have a brother. And she remembers things about her brother that she did't know before and she's more than certain he knows a thing or two about her she didn't want anyone knowing around here. So many emotions. So much 'do not want' in one weekend.]

Sacrifice....pony people? This place just gets weirder.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

You dunno the half of it, dude.

[doeswhathewants]

I am rather unsure I wish to know the half of it.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Keep yourself ignorant and be horrifically surprised or learn what could possibly happen and be horrifically surprised anyway. There's no winning.

Sit back and watch us be miserable, honey.

But I don't wanna. [She wants to do something about it, Angela.]

[thenormalsquint]

Nobody does. I certainly don't want to. But I haven't come up with any ideas that seem workable yet.

[There's a long silence on Mindy's end. She's probably just glaring and trying so hard to not swear as she speaks. This takes serious effort, Angela. She hopes you're happy.]

This whole place is dumb.

[Her weekend was just too much.]

[indecent_butterfly]

One would image the same as most Gods...very little.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Kinda fucking figured.

[This place. It is the most ridiculous.]

[indecent_butterfly]

Such language. [But ne is smiling regardless of nir words.]

Just looking for confirmation of assumed knowledge?

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

That. More information if there is any. Just...I don't like not knowing how something works. I feel like a chicken with my head cut off, y'know? Running around uselessly until I just kick the bucket.

[beifongbandit]

No, I'm pretty sure that's it. Laugh at our pain, maybe?

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Sit back with popcorn and watch us flail.

[beifongbandit]

I think that if they had a playhouse, wherever they're from, they wouldn't have even needed us.

[ As in a place where they hold plays. ]

voice;

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Probably. This place is one big nuthouse.

One of them said once that it was doing paperwork. If I were a deity, I would not do anything so boring.

I know that these deities can give and take memories, bring the dead back to life, grant wishes and--I cannot verify this, although I have heard it said--trick people. They make me think of Baba Yaga in the old stories.

...Only the deities do not live in a cabin that stands on chicken legs.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Paperwork? What the fuck does a deity need with paperwork?

[Listening listening and then...]

They grant wishes?

[That part is very interesting. She didn't hear the rest of what he said, though, because wishes. That was very interesting, indeed.]

How does that work?

[candothat]

Why would a deity not do paperwork if that is what it enjoys? It's a deity.

Yes, yes, they do. I had a request of mine granted, but the deities do not give things for free. It was simple; I asked to speak with a deity, Laszlow--one of the deities--replied, and we negotiated. Some think that it is foolish to ask things of the deities, but I believe their trades are fair.

You plan to ask for a favor of them? [Not judging, just curious.]

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Maybe. Depends on what I gotta trade. I don't have much here.

[dignity_misery]

Nothing, as far as I know.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

So I hear.

[srslynotguy]

The deities can grant special requests at a hefty price... And I suppose they are also responsible for keeping this place the way it is...

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

How hefty are we talkin'?

[srslynotguy]

It depends on the request. Memories often become the price, however.
