"Could be worse" he decided not to think abot the fact that persephone was married to hades and thius this might not sit well with Hades. Or maybe it would.

I nodded. "At least no one would bother me if they knew I had the wrath of Phespherone on my side." I say with a chuckle

Another grunt. Hes reallgy not ina talking mood.

"Now I know why Hades chose you." I mumble. "You guys could be moody buddies.

Nicote glares at the owner of the kutterings. "You havent met moody until youve met mysister, whos an emotional rollercoaster."

"Okay sorry." I say raising ny hands.

"Its fine...." hetrunts. Fjnally he sitsup properly and leans sgaidnt the tree.

"So what am I supposed to do? Wait until Phespherone is like 'hey you gotta do this thing?' I ask looking up at him.

He shurgs. "Beats me. Im just the dude whos too good fr the local highschool science courses and not good enough for university. Which is why i just have a job at the hardware store."

"That sucks." I tell him. "At least we're in the sane boat."
