[The message starts off with an image of a --well, he's pretty funny looking, really. Some grouchy guy with a really dumb perm sidecut and an unimpressed expression.]

So.

[He rolls his eyes, looking at something that isn't the focus of the message. He clicks his tongue against his teeth, making a tch sound, before looking back.]

Do any of you actually do anything interesting?

[Welp. That said, he's also seated on the roof of any given cabin, really. He doesn't really spend much time on the ground, all things considered, and right now is no exception. Feel free to tell him to get down or ask him what the hell he's doing. Or both. Both is good.]

Yeah. As a Daughter of Eris, I can disappear in one shadow and reappear in another.

[He squints at her for a moment, mouthing "Daughter of Eris" without making sound, and looks thoughtful for a moment before barking another brief laugh at her.]

Useful.

Goddess of Discord.

And you'd be surprised just how useful it is.

It's one of my many talents.

I'm not sure surprised is the right word. Potentially impressed, maybe.

I'll take impressed. Not potentially impressed, though.

Revisiting the fact that maybe you ought to add arrogance to your repertoire of personal adjectives.

[Have a look.]

Oh really? I don't think so. Then again, I've known myself for over a hundred years. And you just met me.

[He looks briefly startled by that notion.]

...I wasn't aware humans were capable of aging that gracefully.

[She'll take that as a complement.]

Hardly a day over seventeen.

[He raises his eyebrows and huffs a laugh.]

Is that another of your "talents"?

Comes with the title of Hunter of Artemis.

... [A nod, and a vague affirmative sound.]

And that is, specifically? Immortality? I realize that almost none if not actually none of the people in this camp are entirely human, but I'm curious.

Immortality with a catch. If I die in combat, I die.

But any other number of ways won't actually kill you.

exactly.

[He raises his eyebrows briefly at her, nodding his head. Congratulations, Elizabeth, you got him to grin at you.]

Now that-- definitely counts as interesting.

There are other stipulations, of course, and other perks. But immortality is pretty cool. I've seen three centuries.

[He starts to agree, but stops himself.]

I'll take your word for that.
