the very first.

You all look stunning.

[ A great feast is being held for all of you. ALL OF YOU when you come down from your little area in Olympus to see the most amazing layout of food in your entire lives. The Goddess of Love herself looks around you with intrigue. ]

Well, enjoy yourselves. And if you get along well... maybe fate had it in store for you?

[ ooc; OPENING PARTY POST, with a trick. Optionally, you might feel a pinprick of 'wow... that person looks amazing' before shaking it off. A little love at first sight that fades away in two seconds, leaving your character back to normal. Aphrodite can't help but have a little fun at your expense. With that out of the way! Party! Freak out! You're gods now! ]

You're right, I guess... But it's so different from what I'm used to.

[goodforflying]

Do you think that any of us are used to this? They jumped that on everyone here. You better keep up before you fall behind and lose your way!

[godmodoka]

Is it a competition?

[goodforflying]

Hm, sure.

That's cerainly how I'm going to treat it in any case. We're not tied down by limitations any more so conquering the world is something even those idiots could do, absent-minded as they are.

The true challenge will be to realise that potential.

[godmodoka]

You want to take over the world?

[goodforflying]

Why not? It isn't as if anyone else is doing something fun with it! All these old geezers have grown senile and dusty, content to watch their fellowers kneel at their feet.

There should be so much more to do and I'm not going to wait around for things to get interesting! I'll take it in my own hands.

[godmodoka]

I think it's better to try and rule peacefully.

[goodforflying]

Aa-h [ and that, dear miss, sounds very much unimpressed ] You're content with the way things are, huh? You have neither dreams nor ambitions, nor any desire to get things going? [ incredulous at this] Well, then it doesn't matter if you're around at all because you won't change anything!

Being afraid of facing the opposition would just make you another useless passerby.

[godmodoka]

I'm not afraid. But my dreams and ambitions don't need to be so... Mean. That's all.

[goodforflying]

You think that's mean already? There's no use in constantly thinking of others and bowing to their wishes, that's all. If you want something and have the means to get it then things like this will just hold you back.

What do you want? It can't be that great if you're content to sit back and wait for it.

[godmodoka]

I want to make other people happy, so bowing to their wishes isn't bad.

I won't sit back and wait for anything. I'll fight if I have to, for other people.

[goodforflying]

A martyr huh. Are you saying that people are supposed to be happy as soon as someone else gives in and takes a step back? That would make things way too easy — I prefer challenges, they make the entire thing fun in the first place.

That's something at least. No idea where you're planning to go with this but it's a good deal more interesting if you don't just sit around and wait for the world to end.
