[ There's an indignant snort. ]

Who am I going to tell? Peter? In case you hadn't noticed I'm not great friends with the whole fucking town or anything.

[solastial]

i don't think you'd tell someone. but there's part of me that thinks you wouldn't believe it either.

[romanus]

We live with a fucking werewolf.

[ Yes, make it all about Peter being a werewolf?? ]

[solastial]

it's different.

[ He looks a little bit perplexed, honestly. ]

[romanus]

Goddamn, what do I have to do to convince you? Tell you my whole life story?

[solastial]

no, it's not like that.

[ He frowns, looking across the room. Then sighs and types another reply. ]

i'll tell you about myself. but not him. that's the best i can do.

[romanus]

Deal. Spit it out.

[solastial]

[ Oh boy. ]

what do you know about greek mythology?

[romanus]

[ There's a casual shrug. ]

Enough to get around, doesn't everyone know that shit?

[solastial]

i'm pretty sure it's fairly common knowledge.

[ There ought to be a manual for this. 'How to explain to people that all the myths and legends are true without saying that and therefore sounding totally cheesy.' ]

none of that is fictional.

[romanus]

Okay.

[ Watch him not respond with shock and awe, sorry, Will. Petulance? Yes. Shock? No. ]

So what, you're supposed to be some god or something like that?

[solastial]

[ Petulance is way better, honestly. ]

demigod. half-god. on my dad's side.

[romanus]

You know that's still vague as hell, right? Names.

[ Don't call him stupid, Roman, he's at least giving you what you want. ]

[solastial]

apollo.

[ He looks aside. ]

[romanus]

Wow, you didn't even get a good one.

[ Harsh. ]

[solastial]

[ He actually looks offended by that. ]

what's bad about apollo? that's my dad you're talking about you know.

[romanus]

[ Wow, a reaction! He can't help that faint smirk that passes over his lips. ]

He's not top of the top, you know? Powerful?

[solastial]

just because he's not one of the flashier ones doesn't mean he's not important. he's the god of medicine you know. that's pretty important.

[romanus]

[ He can't even really argue that, without medicine...

Still, he manages an indignant shrug. ]

Someone would have figured out the medicine shit eventually, but you have to admit he kind of got a lot of the shitty stuff, right?

[solastial]

i guess it depends on your perspective.

[ He gestures with his phone. ]

i don't think my abilities are useless.

[romanus]

[ That did make him perk up a little bit, leaning forward in his seat to stare at Will a little more intently. ]

...yeah, like what?
