Seriously, Will. I've handled a lot worse than being called a name that's not mine. What would even be the alternative? I'm not gonna just pick the first name I think of and go with that forever.
Hey, we do have the internet. I'm pretty sure there's a website with, like, twenty thousand names and their meanings on it?
[he shrugs.]
It's not really something you have to decide right away, but - it is something you've got the right to choose. So... something to think about, I guess.
Until something just pops off the screen and you're like, "Hey! That's me!"
[he chuckles.]
...but okay, yeah, we can try the "Hey, this is our friend" thing. The good news is the camp should be mostly empty when we get back, since... pretty much everyone but me and Nico left. It'll mostly be Chiron, Mr. D, and the nymphs around. Maybe some of the satyrs.
Uhhh... Dying or getting horribly maimed because you don't know what you're gonna be up against on a quest usually but that's fine! It's fine. We're actually in a peaceful period right now, so there should not be any quests coming up any time soon.
...gods I need to knock on wood after saying that.
And also, if you do end up getting maimed before you can turn the intangibility on, that is literally what I am here for. I'm the camp's head medic, after all.
[he smiles.]
And with my powers working normally you won't even have to worry about me punching a wall or something ater I heal you up.
You are more than welcome to it. [in a jokingly prim manner:] My delicate knuckles can't take it.
[yeah, okay, will.]
They're not entirely different from what I can do here, I guess. Usually I've got nectar and ambrosia to assist. I can tell what's wrong with someone just by... touching them, usually? No one's really able to hide it from me when they've been injured, or even if they're just... you know, sick. [...] I don't always have to sing a hymn to my dad, but it usually helps for the bigger injuries.
[...]
I'm usually able to take care of bigger stuff, too. Like - I was able to straight-up reattach someone's limbs after they got sawed off, so... it's been a little frustrating to be more limited here.
[ blinks. ] Whoa, cool. [ reattaching limbs is fucking metal. and whatever sawed them off in the first place must also be fucking metal. ]
Trust me, I know all about your powers being overly limited. I can do so much more than intangibility, and even that was hampered. I'm supposed to be able to turn entire buildings and vehicles intangible if I wanted to. I'm supposed to be able to possess them if I wanted to!
[ it is a good thing he could not, though. stares at danny in chroma ]

How do you possess an entire buildling or vehicle? Like - oops! Watch out! That car's haunted!
[he kind of wants to see that actually... a haunted maserati...]
...gives a whole new meaning to "haunted house" though...
no subject
You don't. Or at least, not most ghosts. Some might possess inanimate objects, but more likely they just have control over them.
No, possession is usually done by using intangibility to enter a living thing.

[a beat.]
Wait. No. Don't try to help me figure that out, I think Nico would have a heart attack.
