₀₁∶ ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ ☠ ⌈ daemon: (ǫᴜᴏᴛʜᴇᴅ) ⌋

[ there's a beach behind him and a beachhouse ( vex's to be specific ), and it's where he's standing as he digs his toes into the sand. on his wrist ( though unseen ), ]

Guess I have a few people to apologize to. Sorry I'm late. By the way, I think I'm going to throw a party. Someone's birthday got missed and I want to make it up to him. Thing is, I'm not great at this kind of thing, so... suggestions are appreciated.

And I guess I should say who I am, considering this isn't "home." [ meaning, eudio. ] I'm Nico di Angelo. Son of Hades. And this- [ the feed jostles. ] -is Quothed.

[ she is noticeably caught off-guard by the invitation, but recovers quickly enough.
the video shifts a bit as her daemon silently gives its opinion to her. ]

May I bring a companion with me?

[deathkid]

Sure. Why not?

[astralera]

I shall ask him posthaste.

When and where will this party be?

[deathkid]

I'm still working on that bit. But once I've got it figured out, I'll let you know.

[astralera]

My thanks.

[deathkid]

Not a problem. Will's pretty sociable and likes making friends, so I'm sure he'd be cool with meeting you.

[astralera]

I'm pleased to hear it. Given your reaction, is it safe to assume my... [ she pauses for a brief moment, thinking of the best phrasing. this is not generally an issue in Eorzea ] ...differing appearance won't cause any distress?

[deathkid]

Are you kidding? We're demigods. We're used to anything different.

[astralera]

[ she will just go out on a limb and assume that demigods and gods in Nico's world are nothing like the Primal gods in her own. no reason for her title as Godslayer and Eikonslayer to mean anything here. ]

We do not have any 'demigods' in the world I hail from, but it is good to know my race won't cause any issue.

[deathkid]

We're pretty open minded. And we just came from a world where a lot of strange things happen too. If we were bothered by race, we'd be hypocrites because we're halfbloods.

[astralera]

Halfbloods are persecuted in Eorzea as well. [ a quiet hum. ] Occasionally I was met with accusations of being descended from dragons. Which, during the climax of a thousand-year war with the dragons was not the most delightful of experiences.

I am sorry if you've had to deal with such unpleasantness.

[deathkid]

Your world sounds pretty complicated. But it's cool. We're cool. I don't think we have to worry about anything like that here.

[astralera]

That particular war is over now, so that has no longer been much issue. [ helping to end a thousand year war with dragons kind of made many ishgardians ease up on her perceived heritage. thankfully. ] Yes, here seems quite relaxed in that regard.
