Well... seems like there's a few of you who are ready to sell us out.
[His voice is soft- not really angry, but there's a sinister lilt to it.]
And here I thought we were all growing to be one big, happy family. I can't say I'm fond of the necessity of weeding out spies in our city, but... listen, we're all in a flurry about this. We need to do something, and everyone wants a say in how we're supposed to move forward from here.
[Which has been a headache and a half for all of the gods. Sure, they get along in the grand scheme of things, but there's definitely a little clash of ideals going on, and frankly, Fear is tired of the arguing.]
So what I thought we'd do is to have you vote on who's in charge here. Who takes action and comes up with a game plan on how we're going to suss out what the Null are planning. Obviously, Sorrow wants to be our fearless leader, but his methods are a little... direct. Delight and Rage would probably have a little murder mystery party when they get back, Tranquility and Confusion- I'm not sure if they'd actually do anything at all, come to think of it.
[Christ, this is a mess.]
As far as Love and myself go... I can think of a few people I'd like to personally interrogate.
Anyway, cast your votes or ask your standard slew of questions. Yes, I realize that some of the dissenters will be voting, yeah I know that you all want to be in charge instead- there's probably a few of us who might bend our ears to you, but as we can't put a hundred people in charge, it's gonna be one of us.
[A pause.]
Sorry.
[Happy voting?]

[That's interesting.]
What kind of gods are you children of?
Re: voice
Uh, my dad is Apollo, he's the greek god of music, the sun, archery, prophecy, medicine, plague, reason and poetry.....he's a god of a lot of things.
[Sometimes it seemed like Apollo was more ADHD than he was.]
Annabeth's mom is Athena, she's the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy and some kinds of art, like weaving. Nico's dad is Hades, he's the god of the Underworld.
Actually now that I think about it, Nico might be able to help you.
voice
[Phew.]
How would Nico help me?
Re: voice
Well, you feed off Fear right? It makes you stronger, gives you more power to do what you need to do? Like my gods eat ambrosia? Nico radiates fear. He once made an entire army part like the red sea. Normally, he controls it.
[Because having random people pee themselves when they meet you is not a good way to make friends.]
It's part of the gifts he got from his dad.
.....he also kills grass when he's upset. But that's probably less helpful to you.
voice
[And he means that- if this Nico person can help him, then he's all for seeing exactly how that would work.]
I don't think grass killing is very helpful, but the fear part- if he can channel that, he'd quickly rise to my list of favorite humans.
Re: voice
[Or Nico could have had trouble making friends because he kept running away from people out of fear of being judged. It was also hard to make friends when you kept everyone at a distance.]
I'll tell him to stop by sometime. You guys can work it out. Your temple?
