My name's Medusa. I'm a gorgon. Until recently I found myself happily dead following being killed thousands of years ago by a hero called Perseus. Back then I was resigned to living in a pit with the almost uncontrollable ability to kill anything that laid eyes on me. Why? Because I was raped. And apparently it was my fault. Now I've returned to find myself cast as the villain in that tale. And people honestly wonder why I'm not a people person.

Anyone want to get tea or coffee?

I’m feeling slightly lonely. How odd.

I wouldn’t be opposed.

-laughs and tugs her along- It’s okay to be excited. I thought it was very cute.

*looks away awkwardly and swallows her discomfort* Alright then. I haven’t had them in a while.

-starts looking through the shelves once they get to said grocery store- I like being outside of that building. I feel so much more comfortable, don’t you?

Yeah. But it’s like I can still feel Zeus’ leash. *browses through shelves*

Oh! You’ve tried them, too then?

I may have devoured human food once I was alive again.

-grabs her hand- Let’s go get some then!

Okay! TO THE GROCERY STORE! … *bites her lip* That was more excited then it ought to be.

-pained look- He was a little. For a while I had to retreat to the forest because I felt stifled by his presence.

*grimaces* You know what, I’m not going to press the issue. Do you want to go out and hunt? 

Ah, no, I think I’d rather pig out on something unhealthy. Like ice cream or those chocolatey things the humans eat. The ones with the cream inside… nanaimo bars?

Oh my gods those are delicious.

Oh…I’m sorry to hear that. Did you not think he was on par with you in terms of constitution or…no, I shouldn’t ask about that. That’s not respectful. 

So was he needy?

I feel like my father right now and it’s terrifying me. I don’t feel very upset. Perhaps it hasn’t sunk in? Triton and I weren’t together for very long, after all. I think he grew attached much faster.

Why should you feel like Zeus if you didn’t have chemistry with him? And what makes you say that?

I thought we did for a while but… It was only in the moments he stopped being himself that I felt a connection. He’d act more like I wanted him to and it’d spark my interest, but then he would return to being himself and I didn’t… I didn’t want that.

He…he’d say things and always want to hold me or keep me around, and he’d give me gifts and pet names…

I’d hope so… but I don’t know what aunt Amphitrite will think.

I wasn’t even aware that had happened. How are you doing?

It’s no secret my uncles aren’t thrilled with my father… I don’t want them to hurt him.

Well, if there’s one thing to be said about Zeus, he’s slippery.

I know, but even a smooth tongue won’t get him out of this mess. -sighs- And now I wonder if I might cause more hostility by breaking it off with Triton.

I think Poseidon knows that you’re more reasonable than to break it off with Triton willy nilly.

I’d hope so… but I don’t know what aunt Amphitrite will think.
