Wierdo he/him Posted April 24, 2024 Posted April 24, 2024 Just now, Lunamor said: “I don’t understand why he hates himself. He thinks he’s bad at fighting, although that’s not really true. He kept saying that he was gonna hurt me if he stayed, but I don’t know what that means.” Jenny had quit crying, but tears still brimmed in her eyes. ”This all makes me feel trapped. Stuck. I need to get out.” How cryptic. She winced slightly. HINT-? It could possibly be- because she asked for help, and now she's saying she's stuck. sooo-? "Well, if you need to talk to anyone, I'll be here"

"Well, if you need to talk to anyone, I'll be here" Jenny nodded, giving a sad, grateful smile. She made a show of wiping away her tears, sniffling. ”I really appreciate it.” No, no, no, no, no…

I know what just happened- but still-" Please let me through, I can sell this for you. ...fine. ”He’s really scaring me, Lucid. Don’t let him be alone, ok? He tried to eat a death flower, this is the worst I’ve seen him.” And who gave him that flower? ”I can’t help him anymore. I just make things harder for him. Oh gosh, this is all my fault, he feels bad because he thinks he’s hurting me…” Jenny tried to turn her head to look at Ed, but found that it was locked in place. You know I can’t allow that, Jenny.
Random Bystander she/her Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 Quote I finally got an idea of how to include Elsie again. She got no control over her powers. Elsie vanished out of sight completely for a moment. She then appeared directly behind Jenny, confused and disoriented.

She then appeared directly behind Jenny, confused and disoriented. Jenny noticed the girl vanish and glanced about. After a few moments, she found Elsie. She was right behind her. Jenny immediately whipped around and took a step back, placing her hand on Sword’s hilt. Were they trying to sneak up on her? Incapacitate her while she was distracted? Jenny was vulnerable so high up, not having access to some of her underworld powers. This was the perfect opportunity for an ambush. Quote Y’all let me know if you want me to dial the Jenny stuff back. This whole thing was planned for much later, I didn’t expect Edgar to break up with her @Wierdo @Weaver of Lies

Elsie looked around, obviously really confused. "The heck was that? Do one of you have magical teleport-y powers?"

Elsie could be feigning the confusion in order to get her to let her guard down. ”I think that was you.” The girl could become a liability if she didn’t learn to control her powers soon. Unfortunately, Jenny wasn’t the sort of person to ditch a young girl, regardless of how beneficial it was.

Jenny shrugged. ”Demigods can have multiple different powers. I’ve got the ability to open cracks in the earth, put people to sleep, and mess with shadows. I also have necromancy and some minor temperature manipulation. There’s some other stuff, but I haven’t really mastered it yet.” Hopefully Jenny could find an excuse to exercise her powers. In the right hands, they could accomplish quite a bit. The girl was too much of a coward to realize her full potential.

Being a Hades kid can be fun.” Grasshoppers, birdies, rats… Ugh. Worms, squirrels, cats, cats, cat… Jenny finally let go of Sword, deciding that Elsie wasn’t a threat. She held up her hand and made frost form on her fingertips. She smiled, but it wasn’t the usual excited Jenny smile. It was closer to one of satisfaction.

Jenny made the frost slowly spread, first covering her hand, then reaching all the way up to her elbow. It was a pity this ability was good for little more than show. Frost didn’t have much use in combat. The temperature around her lowered to a biting cold. She didn’t particularly care.

Jenny suddenly clenched her fist, and the ice melted away into nothing. Caaaaaaaaat… ~~~~~~~~~~ Jenny, the real Jenny, was starting to act rather strangely. No longer fully tethered to anything apart from a dark corner of her mind, she began to have trouble focusing on reality. Her window through her eyes was fogging up. It had taken far less time than she’d assumed to lose it. She did know that whatever had trapped her in this dark place was very bad, however. She needed to do something to fight this voice, something that she didn’t need to invest too much thought into. So she decided to be really, really annoying. CaAaAaAaAat…

That would probably drive off that pest. Her attempts to win him over were obviously futile, but Jenny wasn’t strong enough to admit it. Kittykittykittykittykittykitty… Shut.

That boy always just stared. Jenny didn’t appreciate him scrutinizing her so much. She frowned back.

He said he wouldn’t leave… he promised… he almost swore on the River Styx… said it was because he loved me… he must not love me anymore… … … … …Kit-ty, kit-ty, kit-ty…
